Jeremi 19
1 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: — Kende kosomba mbeki epai ya mosali mbeki. Kende nzela moko na bakambi ya bato mpe bakambi ya Banganga-Nzambe;
Thus saith Jehovah: Go and buy a potter's earthen flagon, and [take] of the elders of the people, and of the elders of the priests;
2 bimela na nzela ya Lubwaku ya Beni-Inomi, na liboso ya ekuke ya ndako epai wapi basalaka mbeki; mpe kuna, okosakola maloba oyo nakoyebisa yo.
and go forth unto the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the pottery-gate, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell thee,
3 Loba: « Bino bakonzi ya Yuda mpe bavandi ya Yelusalemi, boyoka Liloba na Yawe! Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Boyoka! Nakoyeisa pasi makasi na esika oyo; mpe moto nyonso oyo akoyoka sango na yango, akozala na somo.
and say, Hear the word of Jehovah, O kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, the which whosoever heareth, his ears shall tingle;
4 Lokola bato oyo basundoli Ngai mpe bakomisi esika oyo esika ya banzambe ya bapaya, lokola bakomi kotumba mbeka na esika oyo mpo na banzambe oyo; ezala bango, batata na bango to bakonzi ya Yuda, batikalaki koyeba te, batondisi esika oyo na makila ya bato oyo basali mabe ata moko te,
because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place [from me], and have burned incense in it unto other gods, whom neither they nor their fathers have known, nor the kings of Judah; and have filled this place with the blood of innocents;
5 batongi bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpo na Bala, mpo na kotumba bana na bango na moto lokola mbeka ya kotumba epai ya Bala; nzokande Ngai natikala kotinda bango likambo ya boye te to mpe likambo ya boye etikala ata komata na makanisi na Ngai te;
and they have built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons in the fire as burnt-offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it up into my mind:
6 yango wana, na mikolo ekoya, elobi Yawe, bakobenga lisusu te esika oyo: ‹ Tofeti to Lubwaku ya Beni-Inomi, › kasi bakokoma kobenga yango: ‹ Lubwaku oyo babomelaka bato. ›
therefore behold, days come, saith Jehovah, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor Valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter.
7 Kaka na esika oyo, nakobebisa mabongisi ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi; nakosala ete bakweya na mopanga ya banguna na bango mpe na maboko ya bato oyo bazali na posa ya kosala bango mabe. Nakokomisa bibembe na bango bilei ya bandeke ya likolo mpe ya banyama ya zamba.
And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life, and their carcases will I give as food to the fowl of the heavens and to the beasts of the earth.
8 Nakobebisa engumba oyo mpe nakokomisa yango eloko ya kotiola. Bato nyonso oyo bakolekela awa bakokamwa mpe bakoyoka somo wana bakomona kobeba na yango nyonso.
And I will make this city an astonishment and a hissing; every one that passeth by shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues thereof.
9 Nakoleisa bango misuni ya bana na bango ya basi mpe ya mibali, bakoliana bango na bango tango bato oyo bazali na posa ya kosala bango mabe bakozingela bango.
And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat everyone the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the straitness wherewith their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall straiten them.
10 Boye, buka mbeki na miso ya bato oyo bozali kokende na bango nzela moko
And thou shalt break the flagon in the sight of the men that go with thee,
11 mpe loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: Nakobebisa ekolo mpe engumba oyo, kaka ndenge bapanzaka mbeki oyo mosali mbeki asali, mpe bakokoka lisusu kobongisa yango te. Bakokunda bibembe na Tofeti kino esika ya kokunda ekotikala lisusu te.
and shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaketh a potter's vessel, that cannot be made whole again. And they shall bury in Topheth, till there be no place to bury.
12 Yango ezali makambo oyo nakosala na esika oyo mpe epai ya bavandi ya esika oyo, elobi Yawe, nakokomisa engumba oyo lokola Tofeti.
Thus will I do unto this place, saith Jehovah, and to the inhabitants thereof, and make this city as Topheth.
13 Bandako ya Yelusalemi mpe bandako ya bakonzi ya Yuda ekokoma mbindo lokola esika oyo na kombo Tofeti, bandako nyonso oyo, na likolo ya manzanza na yango, bazalaki kotumba malasi ya ansa mpo na mampinga nyonso ya likolo mpe bazalaki kobonza makabo ya masanga ya vino mpo na banzambe mosusu. › »
And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah shall be as the place of Topheth, defiled, all the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense unto all the host of the heavens, and have poured out drink-offerings unto other gods.
14 Jeremi azongaki wuta na Tofeti epai wapi Yawe atindaki ye mpo na kosakola, atelemaki na lopango ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe alobaki na bato nyonso:
And Jeremiah came from Topheth, whither Jehovah had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of Jehovah's house, and said to all the people,
15 — Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Boyoka! Nakoyeisa na engumba oyo mpe na mboka oyo ezali zingazinga na yango pasi nyonso oyo nasakolaki na tina na yango, pamba te batosaki Ngai te mpe bayokaki maloba na ngai te. »
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all her cities all the evil that I have spoken against it; for they have hardened their necks, not to hear my words.
