Oze 10
1 Isalaele azalaki lokola nzete ya vino ya bitape ebele, azalaki kobota mbuma mpo na ye moko. Ndenge azalaki kobota mbuma ebele, ndenge wana mpe atongaki bitumbelo ebele; ndenge mabele na ye ekomaki kitoko, ndenge wana mpe abongisaki mabanga na ye ya bule.
Israel is a branching vine, full of fruit; as his fruit is increased, so the number of his altars is increased; as the land is fair, so they have made fair pillars.
2 Mitema na bango etondi na mabe mpe basengeli sik’oyo kofuta masumu na bango. Ye moko Yawe akokaba bitumbelo na bango mpe akopanza mabanga na bango ya bule.
Their mind is taken away; now they will be made waste: he will have their altars broken down, he will give their pillars to destruction.
3 Boye bakoloba: « Tozali na mokonzi te, pamba te totosaki Yawe te. Ata tozalaki na mokonzi, akokaki kosala nini mpo na biso? »
Now, truly, they will say, We have no king, we have no fear of the Lord; and the king, what is he able to do for us?
4 Bapesaka bilaka ebele, balapaka ndayi ya lokuta mpe basalaka boyokani. Boye, bosembo ekomi lokola matiti ya ngenge oyo ekolaka na bisika oyo bakataka bilanga.
Their words are foolish; they make agreements with false oaths, so punishment will come up like a poison-plant in a ploughed field.
5 Bavandi ya Samari bazali kolenga mpo na mwana ngombe ya mwasi ya Beti-Aveni; bato na yango mpe Banganga-Nzambe oyo bagumbamelaka ekeko ya mwana ngombe bakosala matanga na tina na yango. Tika ete basepela lelo mpo ete nkembo ya mwana ngombe elongwe kati na bango.
The people of Samaria will be full of fear because of the ox of Beth-aven; its people will have sorrow for it, and its priests will give cries of grief for its glory, for the glory has gone in flight.
6 Bakomema ekeko ya mwana ngombe yango na Asiri lokola likabo mpo na mokonzi monene. Efrayimi akoyoka soni, mpe Isalaele akosambwa mpo na mabongisi oyo basalaki.
And they will take it to Assyria and give it to the great king; shame will come on Ephraim, and Israel will be shamed because of its image.
7 Mokili ya Samari mpe mokonzi na yango bakotiola likolo ya mayi lokola mwa eteni ya nzete ya kokawuka.
As for Samaria, her king is cut off, like mist on the water.
8 Bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba ya Beti-Aveni epai wapi Isalaele azalaki kosala masumu ekobebisama. Banzube mpe basende ekobota na bitumbelo na bango mpe ekozipa yango. Bongo bakoloba na bangomba milayi: « Bozipa biso! » Mpe bakoloba na bangomba mikuse: « Bokweyela biso! »
And the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, will come to destruction; thorns and waste plants will come up on their altars; they will say to the mountains, Be a cover over us; and to the hills, Come down on us.
9 Isalaele, osalaki masumu wuta na mokolo ya Gibea mpe obongwani te. Boni, bitumba ekomeli bato mabe ya Gibea te?
O Israel, you have done evil from the days of Gibeah; there they took up their position, so that the fighting against the children of evil might not overtake them in Gibeah.
10 Nakopesa bango etumbu ndenge nalingi; bato ya bikolo ya bapaya bakosalela bango likita mpe bakokanga bango minyololo likolo ya masumu mibale oyo basalaki.
I will come and give them punishment; and the peoples will come together against them when I give them the reward of their two sins.
11 Efrayimi azali lokola mwana ngombe ya mwasi oyo babokola malamu, alingaka kobeta ble; kasi nakotia ekangiseli na kingo na ye ya kitoko. Nakotambolisa Efrayimi lokola mpunda, Yuda akobalola mabele, Jakobi akopanza-panza yango.
And Ephraim is a trained cow, taking pleasure in crushing the grain; but I have put a yoke on her fair neck; I will put a horseman on the back of Ephraim; Judah will be working the plough, Jacob will be turning up the earth.
12 Bolona bosembo mpo na bino moko mpe bokobuka mbuma ya bolingo ya solo. Bomikatela bilanga ya sika, pamba te tango ya koluka Yawe ekoki kino tango akoya kosopela bino bosembo.
Put in the seed of righteousness, get in your grain in mercy, let your unploughed earth be turned up: for it is time to make search for the Lord, till he comes and sends righteousness on you like rain.
13 Bolonaki makambo mabe, bobukaki mpe makambo mabe mpe boliaki mbuma ya lokuta, pamba te botiaki elikya na makasi mpe na ebele ya basoda na bino.
You have been ploughing sin, you have got in a store of evil, the fruit of deceit has been your food: for you put faith in your way, in the number of your men of war.
14 Yango wana, lokito ya bitumba ekoyokana kati na yo, bandako na yo nyonso oyo batonga makasi ekobebisama; ndenge Salimani abebisaki Beti-Aribeli na mokolo ya bitumba, tango bamama mpe bana na bango bakweyaki na mabele.
So a great outcry will go up from among your people, and all your strong places will be broken, as Beth-arbel was broken by Shalman in the day of war, as the mother was broken on the rocks with her children.
15 Beteli, makambo oyo ekokomela yo mpo ete mabe na yo eleki ndelo. Tango mokolo yango ekokoka, mokonzi ya Isalaele akozala lisusu te.
So will Beth-el do to you because of your evil-doing; at dawn will the king of Israel be cut off completely.
