< Ezekieli 7 >
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 « Mwana na moto, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi na mokili ya Isalaele: ‹ Esili! Tango ya suka ebelemi mpo na mokili mobimba!
“And as for you, son of man: Thus says the Lord God to the land of Israel: The end is coming, the end is coming, over the four regions of the earth.
3 Tango ya suka ekoki sik’oyo mpo na yo, nakopelisela yo kanda na Ngai, nakosambisa yo kolanda etamboli na yo mpe nakofuta yo kolanda misala na yo nyonso ya mbindo.
Now the end is over you, and I will send my fury upon you. And I will judge you according to your ways. And I will place all your abominations before you.
4 Nakotala yo na liso ya mawa te mpe nakobikisa yo te; nakofuta yo solo kolanda etamboli na yo mpe kolanda misala ya mbindo oyo ezali kati na yo. Boye okoyeba solo ete Ngai nazali Yawe. ›
And my eye will not be lenient over you, and I will not take pity. Instead, I will set your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord.”
5 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: ‹ Mawa! Pasi ya somo ezali koya!
Thus says the Lord God: “One affliction, behold, one affliction is approaching.
6 Tango ya suka ebelemi! Ya solo, tango ya suka ebelemi penza! Etelemeli yo. Tala, tango yango esili kobelema!
The end is coming, the end is coming. It has been vigilant against you. Behold, it is approaching.
7 Kobebisama ekokomela yo, yo movandi ya mokili! Tango yango ekoki, mokolo yango ebelemi, somo makasi ekoti, mpe esengo ezali lisusu te na likolo ya bangomba.
Destruction is coming over you, who live upon the earth. The time is approaching, the day of slaughter is near, and it is not of the glory of the mountains.
8 Nakomi pene ya kopelisela yo kanda na Ngai mpe ya kotombokela yo! Nakosambisa yo kolanda etamboli mpe misala na yo nyonso ya mbindo.
Now, very soon, I will pour out my wrath upon you, and I will fulfill my fury in you. And I will judge you according to your ways, and I will set upon you all your crimes.
9 Nakotala yo na liso ya mawa te mpe nakobikisa yo te, nakofuta yo solo kolanda etamboli na yo mpe misala ya mbindo oyo ezali kati na yo. Boye okoyeba solo ete Ngai Yawe nde nabetaka.
And my eye will not be lenient, nor will I take pity. Instead, I will place your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord, who is striking.
10 Tala, mokolo yango nde yango oyo! Esili kobelema! Kobebisama eboti mbuma, lingenda ebimisi bafololo, lolendo ekoli!
Behold, the day! Behold, it approaches! Destruction has gone forth, the rod has blossomed, arrogance has germinated.
11 Makambo mabe ekoli makasi mpe ekomi lokola fimbu mpo na kopesa etumbu na misala mabe; moto moko te kati na bato to kati na bato ebele akotikala; eloko moko te ekotikala, ezala bomengo to biloko ya motuya.
Iniquity has risen up into a rod of impiety. There shall be nothing left of them, and of their people, and of the sound of them. And there shall be no rest for them.
12 Tango ebelemi, mokolo yango ekoki. Tika ete mosombi moko te azala na esengo to moteki moko te azala na mawa, pamba te kanda makasi ezali kozela bato nyonso.
The time is approaching; the day is very near. Whoever buys should not rejoice. And whoever sells should not mourn. For wrath is over all of their people.
13 Moteki akozwa lisusu te motuya ya biloko oyo atekaki, ata soki azali nanu na bomoi; pamba te emoniseli oyo ezali kotalisa ete kobebisama ya bomengo ya mokili ekokokisama solo. Likolo ya masumu na bango, moto moko te kati na bango akobikisa bomoi na ye.
For whoever sells will not return to what he has sold, but as yet their life will be among the living. For the vision concerning their entire multitude will not turn back. And man will not be strengthened in the iniquity of his life.
14 Ata soki babeti kelelo to bamibongisi ndenge nini, moto moko te akokende na bitumba; pamba te kanda na Ngai ezali likolo ya bato nyonso.
Sound the trumpet! Let everyone be prepared! And yet there is no one who may go to battle. For my wrath is over all their people.
15 Mopanga ekoboma na libanda ya engumba, bokono oyo ebomaka mpe nzala makasi ekoboma kati na engumba; bato oyo bazali kati na mokili bakokufa na mopanga, mpe bato oyo bazali kati na engumba bakokufa na bokono oyo ebomaka mpe na nzala makasi.
The sword is outside, and the pestilence and the famine are inside. Whoever is in the field will die by the sword. And whoever is in the city will be devoured by the pestilence and the famine.
16 Batikali bakokima na likolo ya bangomba; mpe kuna, bakokoma kolelalela lokola bibenga, moto na moto mpo na masumu na ye.
And those who flee from among them will be saved. And they will be among the mountains, like doves in steep valleys, with every one of them trembling, each one because of his iniquity.
17 Maboko na bango nyonso ekolemba, mpe mabolongo na bango nyonso ekolemba lokola mayi.
All hands will be weakened, and all knees will flow with water.
18 Bakolata bilamba ya basaki mpe somo ekokanga bango; bilongi na bango ekotonda na soni, bakokokola suki ya mito na bango.
And they will wrap themselves with haircloth, and dread will cover them. And shame will be upon every face, and baldness will be upon all of their heads.
19 Bakobwaka palata na bango na babalabala, mpe wolo na bango ekomonana lokola eloko ya mbindo. Palata mpe wolo na bango ekozala na makoki te ya kobikisa bango na mokolo ya kanda ya Yawe. Palata mpe wolo yango ekosilisa baposa mpe nzala na bango te, pamba te yango nde ekweyisaki bango na masumu.
Their silver will be thrown away, and their gold will be like a dunghill. Their silver and their gold will have no power to free them in the day of the fury of the Lord. They will not satisfy their soul, and their bellies will not be filled, because of the scandal of their iniquity.
20 Basalaki lolendo mpo na kitoko mpe motuya ya biloko na bango ya monzele oyo basalaki na yango banzambe na bango ya bikeko mpe bililingi ya somo. Yango wana, nakokomisa biloko yango mbindo na miso na bango.
And they have set arrogance as the ornament of their necklaces, and they have made images of their abominations and graven idols. Because of this, I have let it be an uncleanness for them.
21 Nakokaba yango lokola bomengo ya bitumba na maboko ya bapaya mpe ya bato mabe ya mokili mpo ete babotola yango na makasi mpe basakanela yango.
And I will give it into the hands of foreigners as a spoil, and to the impious of the earth as a prey, and they will defile it.
22 Elongi na Ngai ekotala bango lisusu te, mpe bato mabe bakobebisa Esika na Ngai ya bule. Bongo, miyibi bakokota kuna mpe bakosambwisa yango.
And I will avert my face from them, and they will violate my place of mystery. And untamed persons will enter into it, and they will defile it.
23 Bomisalela minyololo mpo ete mokili etondi na babomi mpe engumba etondi na makambo mabe.
Cause it to be closed. For the land has been filled with the judgment of blood, and the city is full of iniquity.
24 Nakotinda ekolo oyo eleki mabe kati na bikolo mpo ete eya kobotola bandako na bango; nakosilisa lolendo ya bato ya nguya mpe nakosambwisa bisika na bango ya bule.
And I will lead in the most sinful among the Gentiles, and they will possess their houses. And I will cause the arrogance of the powerful to be quieted. And they will possess their sanctuaries.
25 Tango makambo oyo ya somo ekoya, bakoluka kimia kasi bakozwa yango te.
When anguish overwhelms them, they will seek peace, and there will be none.
26 Pasi likolo ya pasi nde ekokomela bango, basango ya mabe na ya mabe nde ekolandana. Bakoluka bimoniseli na pamba epai ya basakoli; Banganga-Nzambe bakokoka lisusu te koteya malakisi ya Mobeko, mpe bakambi bakozanga toli ya kopesa.
Disturbance will follow after disturbance, and rumor after rumor. And they will seek the vision of the prophet, and the law will perish from the priest, and counsel will perish from the elders.
27 Mokonzi akozala na matanga, mokambi akolata pili, mpe maboko ya bato ya mokili ekokoma kolenga. Nakofuta bango kolanda etamboli na bango mpe nakosambisa bango kolanda misala na bango. Boye, bakoyeba solo ete Ngai nazali Yawe. › »
The king will mourn, and the prince will be clothed with grief, and the hands of the people of the earth will be greatly disturbed. I will act toward them in accord with their own way, and I will judge them in accord with their own judgments. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
