< Ezekieli 38 >

1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the Lord came unto 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, direct thy face against Gog of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech and Thubal, and prophesy against him,
3 Loba: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Natombokeli yo, Gogi, mokambi ya liboso ya Mesheki mpe ya Tubali!
And say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will be against thee, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech and Thubal;
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 I will derange thee, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thy army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in elegant attire, a great assemblage with bucklers and shields, all of them grasping 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 [shall be] with them; all of them with shield and helmet;
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 of its armies; the house of Thogarmah out of the farthest north, and all its armies; many people shall be with thee.
7 Milengela malamu mpe bongama, yo elongo na mampinga nyonso oyo esangani na yo! Yo nde okozala mokengeli na bango.
Be thou ready, and prepare thyself, thou, and all thy assemblages that are assembled about thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
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 many days shalt thou be ordered forward; in the end of years shalt thou come into the land that is recovering from the sword, and is gathered together out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been ruined for a very long time: [to a people] that are brought forth out of the nations, and that now dwell in safety, all of them.
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.
Thou wilt ascend and come like a tempest, like a cloud to cover the earth wilt thou be, thou, and all thy armies, and the many people with thee.
10 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Na mokolo wana, makanisi ekobotama na motema na yo mpe okosala mabongisi ya mabe.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, It will also come to pass, at the same time, that things will come into thy mind, and thou wilt entertain an evil device;
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 thou wilt say, I will go up over the land of open towns; I will come against those that are careless, that dwell in safety, all of whom dwell without walls, and have neither bars nor gates,
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 snatch up the spoil, and to take away the prey; to turn thy hand against the ruined places now inhabited, and against the people that are gathered out of the nations, that have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the highest part of the land.
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 the traders of Tharshish, with all her young lions, will say unto thee, Art thou come to plunder the spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to carry off the prey? to bear away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to plunder a great spoil?
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?
Therefore, prophesy, son of man, and say unto Gog, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, on the day when my people of Israel dwelleth in safety, shalt thou know [my power].
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 thou wilt come from thy place out of the farthest ends of the north, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great assemblage, and a mighty 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 thou wilt come up against my people of Israel, like a cloud to cover the land; in the latter days will this be, and I will bring thee over my land, in order that the nations may know me, when I am sanctified on thee, before their eyes, O Gog.
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?
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Art thou [not] he of whom I have spoken in ancient days through means of my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days [many] years, that I would bring thee 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 shall come to pass at the same time, on the day of Gog's coming over the land of Israel, saith the Lord Eternal, that my fury shall be kindled in my nose.
19 Na zuwa mpe kanda na Ngai ya makasi, nalobi ete na tango wana, mabele ekoningana makasi kati na Isalaele.
And in my zealousness, in the fire of my wrath, have I spoken, Surely on that day there shall be a great earthquake in the country 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.
And there shall quake at my presence the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the cliffs shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
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 call against him throughout all my mountains for the sword, saith the Lord Eternal: every man's sword shall 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 hold judgment over him with pestilence and with blood [-shedding]; and an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and sulfur will I let rain over him and his armies, and over the many people that are with him.
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. ›
Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself, and make myself known before the eyes of many nations: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
