< Ezekieli 31 >

1 Na mokolo ya liboso ya sanza ya misato, na mobu ya zomi na moko, Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And in the eleuenth yeere, in the third moneth, and in the first day of the moneth the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
2 « Mwana na moto, loba na Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito, mpe na mampinga na ye nyonso: ‹ Nani penza akoki kokokana na yo na lokumu?
Sonne of man, speake vnto Pharaoh King of Egypt, and to his multitude, Whom art thou like in thy greatnesse?
3 Tala mokili ya Asiri malamu! Ezalaki lokola nzete ya sedele kati na Libani: bitape na yango ezalaki kitoko mpe na makasa ebele oyo ezalaki kopesa pio koleka banzete nyonso ya zamba; elekaki banzete nyonso ya zamba na molayi, songe na yango ezalaki ekenda kino na mapata.
Beholde, Asshur was like a cedar in Lebanon with faire branches, and with thicke shadowing boughes, and shot vp very hye, and his toppe was among the thicke boughes.
4 Mayi ezalaki kokolisa yango, mpe mayi ya se ya mabele ezalaki koyeisa yango molayi; ebimisaki miluka zingazinga ya esika oyo balonaki yango mpe epanzanaki kino na banzete nyonso ya zamba.
The waters nourished him, and the deepe exalted him on hie with her riuers running round about his plants, and sent out her litle riuers vnto all the trees of the fielde.
5 Boye, nzete yango ekomaki molayi makasi koleka banzete nyonso ya zamba; bitape na yango ekomaki milayi, mpe makasa na yango ekomaki ebele, pamba te ezalaki kozwa mayi ebele.
Therefore his height was exalted aboue all the trees of the fielde, and his boughes were multiplied, and his branches were long, because of the multitude of the waters, which the deepe sent out.
6 Bandeke nyonso ya likolo ezalaki koya kotonga bazala na bitape na yango, banyama nyonso ya zamba mpe ezalaki kobota na se ya bitape na yango. Bikolo nyonso ya minene ezalaki kobika na se ya pio na yango.
All the foules of the heauen made their nestes in his boughes, and vnder his branches did all the beastes of the fielde bring foorth their yong, and vnder his shadowe dwelt all mightie nations.
7 Ezalaki kitoko na monene na yango mpe na molayi ya bitape na yango, pamba te misisa na yango ezalaki ekita kino na mayi minene.
Thus was he faire in his greatnesse, and in the length of his branches: for his roote was neere great waters.
8 Kati na elanga ya Nzambe, nzete moko te ya sedele ekokanaki na yango, nzete moko te ya sipele ekokanaki na yango na bitape, nzete moko te ya platane ekokanaki na yango na makasa: nzete moko te kati na elanga ya Nzambe ekokanaki na yango na kitoko.
The cedars in the garden of God coulde not hide him: no firre tree was like his branches, and the chessenut trees were not like his boughes: all the trees in the garden of God were not like vnto him in his beautie.
9 Nasalaki yango kitoko makasi na bitape ebele; bongo banzete nyonso ya Edeni, kati na elanga ya Nzambe, ezalaki kolula yango.
I made him faire by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, enuied him.
10 Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola ekomaki molayi penza, bongo songe na yango ekendeki kino na mapata; mpe lokola ekomaki na lolendo mpo na molayi na yango,
Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Because he is lift vp on high, and hath shot vp his toppe among the thicke boughes, and his heart is lift vp in his height,
11 nakabaki yango na maboko ya nkumu ya bikolo mpo ete apesa yango etumbu oyo ekoki na mabe na yango. Nabenganaki yango;
I haue therefore deliuered him into the handes of the mightiest among the heathen: he shall handle him, for I haue cast him away for his wickednesse.
12 mpe bikolo ya bapaya oyo eleki kanza ekweyisaki yango mpe asundolaki yango; makasa na yango ekweyaki na bangomba mpe na mabwaku nyonso, bitape na yango ebukanaki mpe ekweyaki na mabulu nyonso ya minene ya mokili. Bikolo nyonso ya mabele ekimaki wuta na se ya pio na yango mpe esundolaki yango; bongo etikalaki yango moko.
And the strangers haue destroyed him, euen the terrible nations, and they haue left him vpon the mountaines, and in all the valleis his branches are fallen, and his boughes are broken by all the riuers of the land: and all the people of the earth are departed from his shadowe, and haue forsaken him.
13 Bandeke nyonso ya likolo ekomaki kovanda na mobimbi na yango oyo epola, mpe banyama nyonso ya zamba ekomaki kovanda na bitape na yango.
Vpon his ruine shall all the foules of the heauen remaine, and all the beastes of the fielde shall be vpon his branches,
14 Boye, makambo oyo nyonso esalemaki mpo ete nzete moko te oyo elonama pembeni ya mayi ekoma na lolendo mpo na molayi na yango mpe mpo na songe na yango oyo ekenda kino na mapata; mpe mpo ete terebente moko te oyo ezali kozwa mayi ekoma na lolendo mpo na molayi na yango. Pamba te, yango nyonso etangama ete ekokufa, ekokita kino na mokili ya se ya mabele, kati na bakufi, elongo na bato oyo bakitaka na se ya libulu ya kufa.
So that none of all the trees by the waters shalbe exalted by their height, neither shall shoote vp their toppe among the thicke boughes, neither shall their leaues stand vp in their height, which drinke so much water: for they are all deliuered vnto death in the nether partes of the earth in the middes of the children of men among them that goe downe to the pit.
15 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Na mokolo oyo nzete ya sedele ekitaki na se ya mokili ya bakufi, napesaki mitindo ete mayi oyo ya se ya mabele esala matanga mpo na yango. Likolo na yango, nazipaki mayi ya se ya mabele, nakangaki bibale na yango mpe mayi minene ekangamaki; nazipaki zamba ya Libani na molili mpe nakawusaki banzete nyonso ya elanga. (Sheol h7585)
Thus saith the Lord God, In the day when he went downe to hell, I caused them to mourne, and I couered the deepe for him, and I did restreine the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: I caused Lebanon to mourne for him, and all the trees of the fielde fainted. (Sheol h7585)
16 Nalengisaki bikolo na lokito ya kokweya na yango, tango nakitisaki yango na mboka ya bakufi elongo na bato oyo bakitaka na libulu ya kufa. Boye, banzete nyonso ya Edeni, oyo eleki kitoko, mpe banzete ya Libani, oyo eleki kitoko, banzete nyonso oyo ezalaki kozwa mayi malamu, ebondisamaki na se ya mabele. (Sheol h7585)
I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him downe to hell with them that descend into the pit, and all the excellent trees of Eden, and the best of Lebanon: euen all that are nourished with waters, shall be comforted in the nether partes of the earth. (Sheol h7585)
17 Yango mpe ekitaki, elongo na nzete ya sedele, na mokili ya bakufi, epai ya bato oyo bakufaki na mopanga, oyo basanganaki na yango mpo na kovanda na se ya pio na yango kati na bikolo. (Sheol h7585)
They also went downe to hell with him vnto them that be slaine with the sworde, and his arme, and they that dwelt vnder his shadowe in the middes of the heathen. (Sheol h7585)
18 Nzete nini kati na Edeni ekokani na yo na monene mpe na lokumu? Nzokande, yo mpe okokita, elongo na banzete ya Edeni, na mokili ya se ya mabele; okolala esika moko na bato oyo bakatama ngenga te, elongo na bato oyo bakufaki na mopanga. Ndenge wana nde Faraon elongo na bato na ye bakosuka, elobi Nkolo Yawe. › »
To whom art thou thus like in glorie and in greatnesse among the trees of Eden? yet thou shalt be cast downe with the trees of Eden vnto the nether partes of the earth: thou shalt sleepe in the middes of the vncircumcised, with them that be slaine by the sworde: this is Pharaoh and all his multitude, sayth the Lord God.
