Ezayi 15
1 Maloba ya kosambisa mokili ya Moabi: Pamba te na butu oyo Moabi ebebisamaki, Ari kati na Moabi mpe ebebisamaki, solo, ebebisamaki kaka na butu moko! Kiri kati na Moabi mpe ebebisamaki; solo, ebebisamaki kaka na butu moko!
The burden of Moab: for in a night, Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing; for in a night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing.
2 Bato ya Diboni bazali komata na bisika na bango ya bule, na bisambelo na bango ya likolo ya bangomba, mpo na kolela; Moabi akomi koganga mpo na Nebo mpe Medeba. Bakokoli mito nyonso mpe bakati mandefu nyonso.
They have gone up to the temple, and to Dibon, to the high places to weep. Moab wails over Nebo and over Medeba. On every head is baldness. Every beard is cut off.
3 Balati-lati basaki na babalabala, bato nyonso bazali kolela na likolo ya mitondo ya bandako mpe na bisika oyo bato ebele bakutanaka; bazali penza kosopa mpinzoli ebele.
In their streets, they dress themselves in sackcloth; on their roofs and in their squares, everyone wails, weeping abundantly.
4 Eshiboni mpe Eleale ezali koganga makasi, mingongo ya bato na yango ezali koyokana kino na Yakatsi; yango wana, mampinga ya Moabi bazali mpe koganga mpe mitema na bango ebukani.
Heshbon cries out with Elealeh. Their voice is heard even to Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud. Their souls tremble within them.
5 Nazali kolela na se ya motema mpo na Moabi, banguna na ye bazali kokima kino na Tsoari, kino na Egilati-Shelishiya; bazali komata na nzela ya Luyiti na kolela; mpe na nzela ya Oronayimi, bazali kosala matanga mpo na kobebisama na bango.
My heart cries out for Moab. Her Nazirites flee to Zoar, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for they go up by the ascent of Luhith with weeping; for in the way of Horonaim, they raise up a cry of destruction.
6 Mayi ya Nimirimi ekawuki, bongo matiti mpe esili kokawuka, matiti ya mobesu eziki-ziki nyonso mpe matiti ya kitoko ezali lisusu te.
For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate; for the grass has withered away, the tender grass fails, there is no green thing.
7 Yango wana, bamemi bomengo oyo bazwaki mpe oyo babombaki na lubwaku ya banzete ya pepiliye.
Therefore they will carry away the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have stored up, over the Brook of the Willows.
8 Kolela na bango etamboli na mokili mobimba ya Moabi; koganga na bango eyokanaki kino na Egilayimi, mpe kino na mabulu ya mayi ya Elimi.
For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab; its wailing as far as Eglaim, and its wailing as far as Beer Elim.
9 Mayi ya Dimoni etondi na makila, kasi nakotinda lisusu pasi makasi na Dimoni: nkosi moko ekobimela bato ya Moabi oyo bakobika.
For the waters of Dibon are full of blood; for I will bring yet more on Dibon, a lion on those of Moab who escape, and on the remnant of the land.
