< Oze 9 >
1 Isalaele, kosepela te; kozala na esengo te lokola bikolo mosusu; pamba te otikaki Nzambe na yo mpe okendeki kosala kindumba; osepelaki na lifuti ya kindumba na bitando nyonso oyo batutelaka ble.
Rejoice not, O Israel for ioy as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God: thou hast loued a rewarde vpon euery corne floore.
2 Etando oyo batutelaka ble mpe ekamolelo masanga ya vino ekopesa bango bilei te, mpe bakozanga vino ya sika.
The floore, and the wine presse shall not feede them, and the newe wine shall faile in her.
3 Bakovanda lisusu te na mboka na Yawe; Efrayimi akozonga na Ejipito, mpe bakolia bilei ya mbindo kati na Asiri.
They wil not dwel in the Lordes lande, but Ephraim will returne to Egypt, and they will eate vncleane things in Asshur.
4 Bakobonzela lisusu Yawe makabo ya masanga ya vino te, mpe bambeka na bango ekosepelisa lisusu Yawe te. Ekozala mpo na bango lokola bilei ya matanga: bato nyonso oyo bakolia yango bakokoma mbindo; pamba te bilei na bango ekozala kaka mpo na mabumu na bango, kasi ekokota te na Tempelo ya Yawe.
They shall not offer wine to the Lord, neither shall their sacrifices be pleasant vnto him: but they shall be vnto them as the bread of mourners: al that eate thereof, shalbe polluted: for their bread for their soules shall not come into the house of the Lord.
5 Boye, bokosala nini na mikolo ya bafeti oyo ekatama, na mikolo ya bafeti ya Yawe?
What wil ye do then in the solemne day, and in the day of the feast of the Lord?
6 Ata soki bakimi, bakobebisama; Ejipito ekoyamba bango, Mefisi ekozala kunda na bango; matiti mabe ekotonda na bibombelo palata na bango, banzube ekotonda kati na bandako na bango.
For loe, they are gone from destruction: but Egypt shall gather them vp, and Memphis shall burie them: the nettle shall possesse the pleasant places of their siluer, and the thorne shall be in their tabernacles.
7 Mikolo ya etumbu ezali koya, mikolo ya kofuta masumu esili koya. Isalaele, yeba yango! Mosakoli akomi zoba, moto ya Molimo abeli liboma! Pamba te masumu na yo ekomi ebele penza, mpe mabe na yo ekomi mingi liboso na ngai.
The daies of visitation are come: the daies of recompence are come: Israel shall knowe it: the Prophet is a foole: the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquitie: therefore the hatred is great.
8 Mokengeli ya Efrayimi azali elongo na Nzambe na ngai, azali mosakoli; Nzokande bazali kotiela ye mitambo na banzela na ye nyonso mpe bazali kotelemela ye kino na Ndako ya Nzambe na ye.
The watchman of Ephraim shoulde bee with my God: but the Prophet is the snare of a fouler in all his waies, and hatred in the House of his God.
9 Bamikotisi penza kati na mabe ndenge basalaki na mikolo ya Gibea. Nzambe akobosana mabe na bango te mpe akopesa bango etumbu mpo na masumu na bango.
They are deepely set: they are corrupt as in the daies of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquitie, he will visite their sinnes.
10 Tango namonaki Isalaele, azalaki lokola bambuma ya vino kati na esobe. Tango namonaki bakoko na bino, bazalaki lokola bambuma ya liboso ya nzete ya figi. Kasi tango bakomaki na Bala Peori, bamipesaki na nzambe oyo ya ekeko ya soni mpe bakomaki nkele lokola eloko oyo bango balingaki.
I found Israel like grapes in the wildernes: I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the figge tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-Peor, and separated themselues vnto that shame, and their abominations were according to their louers.
11 Nkembo ya Efrayimi ekokima lokola ndeke, wuta na mbotama, wuta na zemi, wuta na ebandeli ya zemi.
Ephraim their glorie shall flee away like a birde: from the birth and from the wombe, and from the conception.
12 Ezala soki babokoli bana, nakobotola bango liboso ete bakola. Solo, mawa na bango tango nakopesa bango mokongo!
Though they bring vp their children, yet I will depriue them from being men: yea, woe to them, when I depart from them.
13 Nazali komona Efrayimi lokola engumba Tiri oyo etongama na likolo ya mabele ya kitoko; nzokande, Efrayimi akokaba bana na ye na mobomi.
Ephraim, as I sawe, is as a tree in Tyrus planted in a cottage: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murtherer.
14 Oh Yawe, pesa bango… Okopesa bango nini? Pesa bango mabumu oyo esopaka bazemi, mpe mabele oyo ekawuka.
O Lord, giue them: what wilt thou giue them? giue them a baren wombe and drie breasts.
15 Nayinaki bango mpo na mabe na bango nyonso oyo basalaki na Giligali; Nakobengana bango na Ndako na Ngai mpo na misala na bango ya mabe. Nakolinga bango lisusu te, pamba te bakonzi na bango nyonso bazali batomboki.
All their wickednesse is in Gilgal: for there doe I hate them: for the wickednesse of their inuentions, I will cast them out of mine House: I will loue them no more: all their princes are rebels.
16 Efrayimi alembi, misisa na ye ekawuki; akobota lisusu bambuma te; ata soki baboti bana, nakoboma bana na bango oyo balingaka mingi.
Ephraim is smitten, their roote is dried vp: they can bring no fruite: yea, though they bring foorth, yet will I slaie euen the dearest of their bodie.
17 Nzambe na ngai akobwaka bango, pamba te batosaki Ye te, mpe bakokoma koyengayenga kati na bikolo.
My God will cast them away, because they did not obey him: and they shall wander among the nations.
