< Ezekieli 38 >

1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 « Mwana na moto, talisa elongi na yo na ngambo ya Gogi, ya mokili ya Magogi, mokambi ya liboso ya Mesheki mpe ya Tubali! Sakola na tina ye mpo na kotelemela ye!
Son of man, let your face be turned against Gog, of the land of Magog, the ruler of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and be a prophet against him,
3 Loba: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Natombokeli yo, Gogi, mokambi ya liboso ya Mesheki mpe ya Tubali!
And say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am against you, O Gog, ruler of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal:
4 Nakokembisa yo, nakotia yo bibende na mbanga, nakobimisa yo elongo na basoda na yo nyonso, mpunda na yo elongo na basoda oyo babundaka likolo ya bampunda: bango nyonso balata kitoko mpe batondi ebele, bamemi banguba minene mpe ya mike mpe bayebi malamu kosalela mipanga.
And turning you round, I will put hooks in your mouth and make you come out with all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them in full war-dress, a great force with breastplate and body-cover, all of them armed with swords:
5 Basoda ya Persi, ya Kushi mpe ya Puti, ba-oyo nyonso bamemaka banguba ya mike mpe balataka bikoti ya bibende, bakosangana na bango;
Persia, Cush, and Put with them; all of them with body-cover and metal head-dress:
6 Gomeri mpe mampinga na ye nyonso ya basoda; libota ya Togarima, wuta na suka ya etuka ya nor, elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso ya basoda, ebele ya bato ya bikolo, bakosangana na yo mpo na kosunga yo.
Gomer and all her forces; the people of Togarmah in the inmost parts of the north, with all his forces: a great number of peoples with you.
7 Milengela malamu mpe bongama, yo elongo na mampinga nyonso oyo esangani na yo! Yo nde okozala mokengeli na bango.
Be ready, make yourself ready, you and all the forces who are with you, and be ready for my orders.
8 Na mikolo ekoya, okobengama mpo na kobunda; na mibu oyo ekoya, okokende kobundisa mokili oyo bavandi na yango, sima na bango kobika na mopanga, basangisaki bango kati na bikolo ebele, na likolo ya bangomba ya Isalaele, oyo ekufa mpe etikala lisusu na bato te wuta kala. Bakobima wuta na bikolo mosusu mpe bakovanda na kimia.
After a long time you will get your orders: in the last years you will come into the land which has been given back from the sword, which has been got together out of a great number of peoples, on the mountains of Israel which have ever been a waste: but it has been taken out from the peoples and they will be living, all of them, without fear of danger.
9 Yo mpe mampinga na yo nyonso, elongo na bikolo ebele oyo esanganaki na yo, bokomata mpe bokopusana lokola mopepe makasi, lokola lipata oyo ezipi mokili.
And you will go up, you will come like a storm, you will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your forces, and a great number of peoples with you.
10 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Na mokolo wana, makanisi ekobotama na motema na yo mpe okosala mabongisi ya mabe.
This is what the Lord has said: In that day it will come about that things will come into your mind, and you will have thoughts of an evil design:
11 Okoloba: ‘Nakobundisa mikili oyo ebatelama malamu te, nakokende kino epai ya bato oyo bavandaka na boboto kati na kimia, bavandaka kati na bingumba oyo ezanga bamir, ezanga bikangelo mpe bikuke;
And you will say, I will go up to the land of small unwalled towns; I will go to those who are quiet, living, all of them, without fear of danger, without walls or locks or doors:
12 nakokende koyiba mpe kozwa na makasi bomengo ya bitumba. Okobalola loboko na yo mpo na kobundisa bisika oyo ebeba, bongo bato bakoma lisusu kovanda kuna, bato oyo basangisa wuta na bikolo, oyo batonda na bibwele mpe na biloko ebele, oyo bavandaka na kati-kati ya mokili oyo.’
To take their property by force and go off with their goods; turning your hand against the waste places which now are peopled, and against the people who have been got together out of the nations, who have got cattle and goods for themselves, who are living in the middle of the earth.
13 Bato ya Seba, ya Dedani, bato ya mombongo ya Tarsisi, elongo na bamboka na yango nyonso ya mike bakoloba na yo: ‘Boni, oyei solo mpo na kozwa na makasi bomengo ya bitumba? Boni, osangisi mampinga na yo mpo na kobotola palata mpe komema wolo, mpo na kozwa bibwele mpe kobotola biloko to mpo na kozwa biloko ebele?’ ›
Sheba, and Dedan and her traders, Tarshish with all her traders, will say to you, Have you come to take our goods? have you got your armies together to take away our property by force? to take away silver and gold, cattle and goods, to go off with great wealth?
14 Yango wana, mwana na moto, sakola! Loba na Gogi: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Na mokolo wana, tango bato na Ngai, Isalaele, bakovanda na kimia, boni, okoyeba yango te?
For this cause, son of man, be a prophet and say to Gog, These are the words of the Lord: In that day, when my people Israel are living without fear of danger, will you not be moved against them?
15 Okowuta na bisika na yo, mosika kuna na etuka ya nor, yo mpe bikolo ebele elongo na yo; bango nyonso likolo ya bampunda, bato ebele, mampinga ya basoda ebele ya nguya.
And you will come from your place in the inmost parts of the north, you and a great number of peoples with you, all of them on horseback, a great force and a strong army:
16 Okoya kobundisa libota na Ngai, Isalaele, ndenge mapata ezipaka mokili. Oh Gogi, na mikolo ekoya, nakosala ete obundisa mokili na Ngai mpo ete bikolo mosusu eyeba Ngai tango Ngai moko nakomonisa bosantu na Ngai na nzela na yo na miso na bango.
And you will come up against my people Israel, like a cloud covering the land; and it will come about, in the last days, that I will make you come against my land, so that the nations may have knowledge of me when I make myself holy in you, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Boni, ezali yo te oyo na tina na nani nalobelaki na tango ya kala na nzela ya basali na Ngai, basakoli ya Isalaele, oyo basakolaki na tango wana, na mibu ebele, ete nakotinda yo mpo ete obundisa bato na Ngai?
This is what the Lord has said: You are he of whom I gave them word in earlier times by my servants, the prophets of Israel, who in those days went on saying, year after year, that I would make you come up against them.
18 Na mokolo yango, mokolo oyo Gogi akobundisa mabele ya Isalaele, tala makambo oyo ekosalema: kanda na Ngai ekopela makasi, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
And it will come about in that day, when Gog comes up against the land of Israel, says the Lord, that my wrath will come up, and my passion and my bitter feeling.
19 Na zuwa mpe kanda na Ngai ya makasi, nalobi ete na tango wana, mabele ekoningana makasi kati na Isalaele.
For in the fire of my wrath I have said, Truly, in that day there will be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20 Bambisi ya ebale, bandeke ya likolo, banyama ya zamba, bikelamu nyonso oyo etambolaka na libumu mpe bato nyonso oyo bazali awa na mabele bakolenga liboso na Ngai; bangomba ekopanzana, mabanga minene ekobukana mpe bamir nyonso ekokweya na mabele.
So that the fish of the sea and the birds of heaven and the beasts of the field and everything moving on the earth, and all the men who are on the face of the earth, will be shaking before me, and the mountains will be overturned and the high places will come down, and every wall will come falling down to the earth.
21 Nakobengisa mopanga mpo na kobundisa Gogi, na bangomba na Ngai nyonso, elobi Nkolo Yawe. Mopanga ya moto na moto ekoboma ndeko na ye.
And I will send to all my mountains for a sword against him, says the Lord: every man's sword will be against his brother.
22 Nakotindela ye bokono oyo ebomaka mpe nakotangisa makila na ye lokola etumbu; nakotindela mampinga na ye mpe bikolo oyo ekosangana na ye mvula makasi, mvula ya mabanga mpe ya moto.
And I will take up my cause against him with disease and with blood; and I will send down on him and on his forces and on the peoples who are with him, an overflowing shower and great ice-drops, fire, and burning.
23 Na nzela wana, nakomonisa monene mpe bosantu na Ngai, mpe nakosala ete bato ya bikolo ebele bayeba Ngai; boye bakoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Yawe. ›
And I will make my name great and make myself holy, and I will make myself clear to a number of nations; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
