Ezayi 22
1 Maloba na Yawe na tina na lubwaku ya Emoniseli: Likambo nini lisusu ekomeli bino sik’oyo mpo ete bino nyonso bomata na likolo ya mitondo ya ndako?
The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee nowe that thou art wholy gone vp vnto the house toppes?
2 Oh engumba etonda na loyenge, engumba etonda na makelele mpe na bisengo! Bibembe na yo ekufi na mopanga te to mpe na bitumba te.
Thou that art full of noise, a citie full of brute, a ioyous citie: thy slaine men shall not bee slaine with sworde, nor die in battell.
3 Bakambi na yo nyonso bakimaki elongo; bakangaki bango na basoda na nguya ya tolotolo. Mpe bato na yo, oyo bazalaki kokima monguna na mosika, bakangaki bango mpe bakomaki elongo bakangami.
All thy princes shall flee together from the bowe: they shalbe bound: all that shall be found in thee, shall be bound together, which haue fled from farre.
4 Yango wana nalobaki: « Botika kotala Ngai, botika ete nalela makasi! Bomeka kobondisa Ngai te mpo na kobebisama ya bato na Ngai! »
Therefore said I, Turne away from me: I wil weepe bitterly: labour not to comfort mee for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
5 Pamba te ezali mokolo moko ya lokito ya bitumba, mokolo ya pasi makasi mpe ya somo kati na lubwaku ya Emoniseli kowuta na Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga; ezali mokolo oyo mir ya makasi ekobukana mpe makelele ya koganga ekobima na bangomba.
For it is a day of trouble, and of ruine, and of perplexitie by the Lord God of hostes in the valley of vision, breaking downe the citie: and a crying vnto the mountaines.
6 Mampinga ya Elami batomboli makonga, mosusu bamati na bashar mpe bampunda; Kiri abimisi nguba.
And Elam bare the quiuer in a mans charet with horsemen, and Kir vncouered the shield.
7 Lubwaku na yo, oyo eleki kitoko etondi na bashar, mpe basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda batelemi-telemi na bikuke ya engumba;
And thy chiefe valleis were full of charets, and the horsemen set themselues in aray against the gate.
8 bibombamelo ya Yuda etikali lisusu te. Na mokolo wana, obalolaki miso na yo na bibundeli oyo ezalaka na Ndako ya Zamba.
And hee discouered the couering of Iudah: and thou didest looke in that day to the armour of the house of the forest.
9 Bomonaki ete Engumba ya mokonzi Davidi ezali na madusu mingi kati na mir oyo ezingeli yango; boye bobombaki mayi kati na Liziba oyo ezalaka na se,
And ye haue seene the breaches of the citie of Dauid: for they were many, and ye gathered the waters of the lower poole.
10 botangaki motango ya bandako ya Yelusalemi, bobukaki mosusu mpo na kolendisa mir ya monene.
And yee nombred the houses of Ierusalem, and the houses haue yee broken downe to fortifie the wall,
11 Bosalaki liziba mpo na kobomba mayi ya liziba ya kala kati na bamir mibale, kasi bobalolaki miso na bino te mpo na kotala Ye oyo asalaki mpe abongisaki yango wuta kala.
And haue also made a ditche betweene the two walles, for the waters of the olde poole, and haue not looked vnto the maker thereof, neither had respect vnto him that formed it of olde.
12 Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, azalaki kobenga bino na mokolo wana mpo ete bolela mpe bosala matanga, bomikokola suki mpe bolata saki.
And in that day did the Lord God of hosts call vnto weeping and mourning, and to baldnes and girding with sackecloth.
13 Kasi tala, ezalaki kaka bisengo mpe loyenge, koboma bangombe mpe bameme ya mibali, bantaba ya basi, kolia misuni mpe komela masanga ya vino! Bozalaki koloba: « Tika ete tolia mpe tomela, pamba te, lobi, tokokufa! »
And beholde, ioy and gladnes, slaying oxen and killing sheepe, eating flesh, and drinking wine, eating and drinking: for to morowe we shall die.
14 Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, ayebisaki ngai yango na matoyi na ngai moko penza: « Kino bokokufa, bokotikala kozwa bolimbisi ya lisumu oyo te, » elobi Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
And it was declared in ye eares of the Lord of hostes. Surely this iniquitie shall not be purged from you, til ye die, saith the Lord God of hostes.
15 Tala maloba oyo Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: « Kende kokuta Shebina, mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi, loba na ye:
Thus sayeth the Lord God of hostes, Goe, get thee to that treasurer, to Shebna, the steward of the house, and say,
16 ‹ Ozali kosala nini awa, mpe nani apesi yo nzela ya kotonga kunda na yo awa lokola moto oyo azali kotimola kunda na ye na likolo mpe kotonga epemelo na ye kati na lidusu ya libanga monene?
What haste thou to doe here? and whome hast thou here? that thou shouldest here hewe thee out a sepulchre, as he that heweth out his sepulchre in an hie place, or that graueth an habitation for him selfe in a rocke?
17 Tala, Yawe akomi pene ya koningisa yo mpe kobwaka yo mosika, yo moto ya makasi!
Beholde, the Lord wil carie thee away with a great captiuitie, and will surely couer thee.
18 Akobalola yo ndenge babalolaka ndembo mpe akobwaka yo na etando moko ya monene. Kuna nde okokufa, mpe bashar na yo ya lokumu ekotikala, yo oyo osalaka soni ya ndako ya mokonzi na yo.
He wil surely rolle and turne thee like a bal in a large countrey: there shalt thou die, and there the charets of thy glory shalbe the shame of thy lordes house.
19 Nakolongola yo na mosala, mpe lokumu na yo ekosila.
And I wil driue thee from thy station, and out of thy dwelling will he destroy thee.
20 Na mokolo wana, nakobengisa mosali na Ngai, Eliakimi, mwana mobali ya Ilikia.
And in that day will I call my seruant Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah,
21 Nakolatisa ye nzambala na yo, nakokanga ye mokaba na yo mpe nakopesa bokonzi na yo na maboko na ye. Akozala tata mpo na bavandi ya Yelusalemi mpe mpo na ndako ya Yuda.
And with thy garments will I clothe him, and with thy girdle will I strengthen him: thy power also will I commit into his hande, and hee shalbe a father of the inhabitats of Ierusalem, and of the house of Iudah.
22 Nakotia fungola ya ndako ya Davidi na mapeka na ye: oyo akofungola, moto moko te akokanga yango; mpe oyo akokanga, moto moko te akofungola yango.
And the key of the house of Dauid will I lay vpon his shoulder: so hee shall open, and no man shall shut: and he shall shut, and no man shall open.
23 Nakopika ye lokola sete na esika ya malamu; akozala lokola kiti ya bokonzi ya lokumu mpo na ndako ya tata na ye.
And I will fasten him as a naile in a sure place, and hee shall be for the throne of glorie to his fathers house.
24 Nkembo nyonso ya ndako ya tata na ye ekozala likolo na ye: kobanda na bakitani na ye kino na bana na bango nyonso, lokola bisalelo oyo: kobanda na bakopo ya mike kino na mbeki ya minene.
And they shall hang vpon him all the glorie of his fathers house, euen of the nephewes and posteritie all small vessels, from the vessels of the cuppes, euen to all the instruments of musike.
25 Na mokolo wana, elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, sete oyo bapikaki na esika ya malamu ekolongwa, ekobukana mpe ekokweya; mpe mokumba oyo amemaki ekokweya. › » Yawe nde alobaki.
In that day, sayeth the Lord of hostes, shall the naile, that is fastned in the sure place, depart and shall be broken, and fall: and the burden, that was vpon it, shall bee cut off: for the Lord hath spoken it.
