< Ezekieli 36 >
1 « Mwana na moto, sakola na tina na bangomba ya Isalaele mpe loba: ‹ Bino bangomba ya Isalaele, boyoka Liloba na Yawe!
But thou, son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of Israel, and say, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord.
2 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Moyini alobaki na tina na bino: ‘Ah, bangomba ya kala ekomi sik’oyo ya biso!’ ›
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the enemy hath said regarding you, Aha, even the ancient high-places are become ours as a possession:
3 Yango wana, sakola! Loba: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola babebisaki bino mpe bapanzaki bino bipai nyonso mpo ete bokoma libula ya bikolo mosusu mpe eloko ya masolo ya kotiola mpe ya kofinga kati na bato;
Therefore prophesy and say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because, even because men have made you desolate, and sought to swallow you up on every side, that ye might become a possession unto the residue of the nations, and ye are taken up as a talk for tongues, and an evil report of the people:
4 mpo na yango, bino bangomba ya Isalaele, boyoka liloba na Nkolo Yawe: Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi na bangomba ya milayi mpe ya mikuse, na mabulu mpe na mabwaku, na bisika ya libebi mpe na bingumba oyo basundola mpe babebisa, bongo bato ya bikolo mosusu ya zingazinga bayibaki mpe bakomisaki yango eloko ya kotiola;
Therefore, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains, and to the hills, to the ravines, and to the valleys, to the desolate ruins, and to the cities that are forsaken, which are become a prey and derision to the residue of the nations that are round about:
5 tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: na zuwa na Ngai ya makasi, natombokeli bikolo oyo etikali mpe mokili mobimba ya Edomi, pamba te na esengo nyonso mpe na mayele mabe kati na mitema na bango, bakomisi mokili na Ngai lokola libula na bango moko mpo ete babotola bilanga na yango nyonso na makasi. ›
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Idumea, that have appropriated my land unto themselves as a possession with the joy of all their heart, with derision in their soul, in order to drive it out that it may be for a prey.
6 Mpo na yango, sakola na tina na mokili ya Isalaele mpe loba na bangomba ya milayi mpe ya mikuse, na mabulu mpe na mabwaku: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nazali koloba na zuwa mpe na kanda na Ngai ya makasi, pamba te bikolo mosusu emonisi bino pasi na kotiola.
Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say unto the mountains, and to the hills, to the ravines, and to the valleys, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, In my zealousness and in my fury have I spoken, because ye have borne the reproach of the nations:
7 Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: nalapi ndayi, na kotombola loboko, ete ezali bikolo oyo ezingeli bino nde ekotiolama.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I have indeed lifted up my hand, that the nations who are round about you— these shall bear their shame.
8 Kasi bino, bangomba ya Isalaele, bokobota bitape mpe bambuma mpo na Isalaele, bato na Ngai; pamba te etikali kaka moke ete bazonga epai na bango.
But ye, O mountains of Israel, ye shall send forth your boughs, and your fruit shall ye bear for my people Israel, for they are near at hand to come.
9 Nazali kolandela likambo na bino mpe nazali kotala bino na liso ya ngolu; bakobalola bino lisusu ndenge babalolaka mabele ya bilanga mpe bakolona lisusu bankona na mabele na bino.
For, behold, I will be for you, and I will turn unto you, and ye shall be tilled and ye shall be sown;
10 Nakokomisa motango ya bato na bino ebele, na mabele na bino: yango nde libota mobimba ya Isalaele; bato bakozongela lisusu kovanda kati na bingumba na bino mpe bakotonga lisusu bandako na bino oyo ebukana.
And I will multiply upon you men, all the house of Israel— altogether; and the cities shall be inhabited again, and the ruins shall be rebuilt;
11 Nakokomisa motango ya bato mpe ya bibwele na bino ebele na mokili na bino: bakobotana mpe bakokoma ebele penza. Nakovandisa lisusu bato na mokili na bino ndenge ezalaka na tango ya kala mpe nakokomisa bino bato ya kofuluka koleka liboso. Boye, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe.
And I will multiply upon you men and beast, and they shall increase and be fruitful; and I will cause you to be inhabited after your old estates, and will do more good unto you than at your beginnings: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
12 Nakosala ete bato na Ngai, bana ya Isalaele, batambola na mokili na bino; bakozwa mabele na bino mpe bokozala libula na bango; bokotikala lisusu te koboma bana na bango.
Yea, I will cause to walk upon you men, even my people Israel, and they shall possess thee, and thou shalt be unto them as an inheritance, and thou shalt not any more henceforth cast them out.
13 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola bato balobaka na tina na bino: Bobomaka bato mpe bozangisaka ekolo na bino bana na yango;
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because they say unto you, Thou land devourest up men, and hast been one that hath ever cast out thy nations:
14 mpo na yango, bokoboma lisusu bato te mpe bokozangisa lisusu ekolo na bino bana te, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
Therefore shalt thou not devour up men any more, and thy nations shalt thou not cast out any more, saith the Lord Eternal.
15 Nakosala ete boyoka lisusu kotiolama ya bikolo mosusu te, mpe bato ya bikolo mosusu bakofinga bino lisusu te; na bongo, bokokweyisa lisusu ekolo na bino te, elobi Nkolo Yawe. › »
And I will not let be heard against thee any more the reproach of the nations, and the disgrace of the people shalt thou not bear any more, and thy nations shalt thou not cast out any more, saith the Lord Eternal.
16 Yawe alobaki na ngai lisusu:
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
17 « Mwana na moto, tango bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kovanda na mokili na bango, bazalaki kokomisa yango mbindo na ezaleli mpe na misala na bango; ezaleli na bango ezalaki mbindo na miso na Ngai lokola makila ya mwasi oyo azali komona sanza na ye.
Son of man, the house of Israel, when they dwelt in their own land, defiled it through their way and through their doings: like the uncleanness of a woman in her separation was their way before me.
18 Boye, napeliselaki bango kanda na Ngai ya makasi, pamba te bazalaki kotangisa makila kati na mokili mpe bakomisaki yango mbindo na nzela ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko.
And I poured out my fury over them because of the blood that they had shed in the land, and because through their idols they had polluted it;
19 Napanzaki bango kati na bikolo, mpe bapalanganaki kati na mikili mosusu; nasambisaki bango kolanda etamboli mpe misala na bango.
And I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings did I judge them.
20 Nzokande, na bisika nyonso oyo bazalaki kokende, babebisaki bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai, pamba te bazalaki koloba na tina na bango: ‹ Bato wana bazali solo bato ya Yawe, kasi tala ndenge batiki mokili na Ye! ›
And when they were come unto the nations, whither they were gone, they profaned my holy name; because they said of them, These are the people of the Lord, and out of his land are they gone forth.
21 Boye, nabatelaki lokumu mpe bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai, oyo libota ya Isalaele babebisaki bosantu na yango kati na bikolo epai wapi bakendeki.
But I had pity for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, whither they were gone.
22 Mpo na yango, loba na libota ya Isalaele: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Oh libota ya Isalaele, ezali mpo na bino te nde nazali kosala makambo oyo nyonso, kasi mpo na bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai, oyo bobebisaki kati na bikolo epai wapi bokendeki.
Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Not for your sake do I this, O house of Israel, but for the sake of my holy name, which ye have profaned among the nations, whither ye are gone.
23 Nakolakisa bosantu ya Kombo monene na Ngai, oyo esambwaki kati na bikolo, Kombo oyo bobebisaki bosantu na yango kati na bikolo yango. Boye, bikolo ekoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe, elobi Nkolo Yawe, tango nakomonisa bosantu na Ngai na nzela na bino na miso na bango.
And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the nations, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord, saith the Lord Eternal, when I will be sanctified through you before your eyes.
24 Pamba te nakobimisa bino na bikolo, nakosangisa bino wuta na bikolo mpe nakozongisa bino na mabele na bino moko.
And I will take you from among the nations, and I will gather you out of all the countries, and I will bring you unto your own land.
25 Nakobwakela bino mayi ya peto, mpe bokokoma peto; nakopetola bino na mbindo na bino nyonso mpe na mbindo ya banzambe na bino nyonso ya bikeko.
And I will sprinkle upon you clean water, and ye shall be clean: from all your impurities, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 Nakopesa bino motema ya sika mpe nakotia kati na bino molimo ya sika; nakolongola kati na bino mitema ya mabanga mpe nakopesa bino mitema ya misuni.
And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit will I put within you; and I will remove the heart of stone out of your body, and I will give you a heart of flesh.
27 Nakotia Molimo na Ngai kati na bino mpe nakosala ete botosa bikateli na Ngai mpe bobatela mibeko na Ngai na bokebi.
And my spirit I will put within you, and I will cause that you shall walk in my statutes, and that my ordinances ye shall keep, and do them.
28 Bokovanda kati na mokili oyo napesaki epai ya bakoko na bino; bokozala bato na Ngai, mpe Ngai, nakozala Nzambe na bino.
And ye shall dwell in the land which I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be unto me for a people, and I truly will be unto you as a God.
29 Nakobikisa bino na mbindo na bino nyonso, nakobotisa mbuma ya ble mpe nakokomisa yango ebele penza; bongo nakotindela bino lisusu nzala te.
And I will save you from all kinds of your impurities; and I will call unto the corn, and increase it, and I will not lay famine upon you.
30 Nakosala ete banzete mpe milona ya bilanga ebota ebele, mpo ete boyoka lisusu soni te na miso ya bikolo likolo ya nzala.
And I will multiply the fruit of the trees, and the products of the field: in order that ye may receive no more reproach on account of famine among the nations.
31 Boye, tango bokokanisa lisusu etamboli mabe na bino mpe misala na bino ya mabe, bino moko bokomiyina likolo ya masumu mpe ya misala na bino ya nkele.
Then shall ye remember your ways that they were evil, and your doings that were not good; and ye shall loathe yourselves on account of your iniquities and on account of your abominations.
32 Nalingi bososola ete nazali kosala makambo oyo mpo na bino te, elobi Nkolo Yawe! Oh libota ya Isalaele, boyoka mawa mpe soni mpo na etamboli na bino!
Not for your sake do I this, saith the Lord Eternal, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded because of your ways, O house of Israel.
33 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Na mokolo oyo nakopetola bino na masumu na bino nyonso, nakosala ete bato bazongela kovanda na bingumba na bino mpe batonga yango lisusu;
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, On the day of my cleansing you from all your iniquities, when I cause the cities to be inhabited, and when the ruins are built up,
34 nakosala ete basala lisusu bilanga na mabele oyo ekomaki esobe, na esika ete etikala pamba na miso ya bato nyonso oyo bakoleka wana.
And when the desolate land is tilled, instead that it was a waste before the eyes of every passer by:
35 Bongo, bakoloba: ‘Mokili oyo ebebisamaki ekomi lokola elanga ya Edeni; bingumba oyo babuka, bongo etikala lisusu na bato te mpe babebisa, elendisami lisusu mpe bato bakomi lisusu kovanda kuna.’
Then shall they say, This land, that was desolate, is become like the garden of 'Eden; and the cities that were ruined, and desolate, and broken down, are become fortified, and inhabited.
36 Boye, bikolo oyo ekotikala zingazinga na bino ekoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe; Ngai nde natongi lisusu bingumba oyo ebukana, mpe naloni lisusu biloko oyo ebebisama. Ngai Yawe nde nalobi mpe nakokokisa yango. ›
And the nations that are left round about you shall know that I the Lord have built up the broken-down [places], have planted the desolate [land]: I the Lord have spoken this, and have done it.
37 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Na mbala oyo lisusu, nakosala ete libota ya Isalaele eluka Ngai mpo ete natalisa bango ngolu na Ngai: nakosala ete bato na yango bakoma ebele lokola bibwele.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Also in this will I yet suffer myself to be entreated of by the house of Israel, to do it for them, I will increase them with men like flocks [in multitude].
38 Bingumba oyo ebebisama ekotonda lisusu na bato ebele lokola bibwele oyo bapesaka na mbeka, lokola bibwele oyo bamemaka na Yelusalemi na tango ya bafeti oyo ekatama. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. »
As the flocks of the holy things, as the flocks of Jerusalem on her appointed feasts, so shall the ruined cities be full of flocks of men: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
