Jeremi 22
1 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi na Jeremi: « Kende na ndako ya mokonzi ya Yuda mpe tatola maloba oyo:
Thus said the Lord, Goe downe to the house of the King of Iudah, and speake there this thing,
2 ‹ Mokonzi ya Yuda, yo oyo ovandi na kiti ya bokonzi ya Davidi, yoka Liloba na Yawe! Yo, bakalaka na yo mpe bato na yo: bino nyonso oyo bolekelaka na nzela ya bikuke oyo,
And say, Heare the worde of the Lord, O King of Iudah, that sittest vpon the throne of Dauid, thou and thy seruants, and thy people that enter in by these gates.
3 tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Bosalela bosembo mpe bosolo; bokangola wuta na maboko ya monyokoli moto oyo bazali konyokola! Bonyokola te bapaya, bana bitike mpe basi bakufisa mibali; bosala mpe bango mabe te. Bosopa te na esika oyo, makila ya bato oyo bayebi likambo te.
Thus saith the Lord, Execute ye iudgement and righteousnes, and deliuer the oppressed from the hande of the oppressor, and vexe not the stranger, the fatherlesse, nor the widowe: doe no violence, nor sheade innocent blood in this place.
4 Pamba te soki bosaleli na bokebi mibeko oyo, bakonzi oyo bakovanda na kiti ya bokonzi ya Davidi bakolekela na bikuke ya ndako oyo, na likolo ya bashar mpe ya mpunda, elongo na bakalaka mpe bato na bango.
For if ye do this thing, then shall the kings sitting vpon the throne of Dauid enter in by the gates of this House, and ride vpon charets, and vpon horses, both he and his seruants and his people.
5 Kasi soki botosi mibeko oyo te, › elobi Yawe, ‹ nalapi ndayi na Kombo na Ngai ete ndako oyo ekobebisama. › »
But if ye will not heare these wordes, I sweare by my selfe, saith the Lord, that this House shalbe waste.
6 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi na tina na ndako ya mokonzi ya Yuda: « Ata soki ozali lokola Galadi na miso na Ngai, lokola songe ya ngomba ya Libani; solo, nakokomisa yo lokola esobe, lokola engumba oyo bato bavandaka te.
For thus hath the Lord spoken vpon the Kings house of Iudah, Thou art Gilead vnto me, and the head of Lebanon, yet surely I wil make thee a wildernes and as cities not inhabited,
7 Nakotinda bato ete baya kobebisa yo, moto na moto na bibundeli na ye; bongo bakokata banzete na yo ya sedele oyo ya kitoko mpe bakobwaka yango na moto.
And I will prepare destroyers against thee, euery one with his weapons, and they shall cut downe thy chiefe cedar trees, and cast them in the fire.
8 Bato bakowuta na bikolo ya ndenge na ndenge bakolekela na engumba oyo mpe bakotunana: ‹ Mpo na nini Yawe asali makambo ya boye na engumba monene oyo? ›
And many nations shall passe by this citie, and they shall say euery man to his neighbour, Wherefore hath the Lord done thus vnto this great citie?
9 Mpe eyano ekozala: ‹ Ezali mpo ete babebisi boyokani oyo basalaki elongo na Yawe, Nzambe na bango, bafukamelaki mpe basalelaki banzambe ya bapaya. › »
Then shall they answere, Because they haue forsaken the couenant of the Lord their God, and worshipped other gods, and serued them.
10 Bolela te mpo na kufa ya mokonzi to bosala matanga te mpo na kufa na ye! Bolela, bolela nde makasi mpo na ye oyo akei na bowumbu, mpo ete akozonga lisusu te mpe akomona lisusu te mboka epai babota ye.
Weepe not for the dead, and be not moued for them, but weepe for him that goeth out: for he shall returne no more, nor see his natiue countrey.
11 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi mpo na Shalumi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, oyo akitanaki na Joziasi, tata na ye, lokola mokonzi ya Yuda, kasi atikaki mboka na ye: « Akozonga lisusu te.
For thus saith ye Lord, As touching Shallum the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, which reigned for Iosiah his father, which went out of this place, he shall not returne thither,
12 Akokufa na esika oyo bakomema ye na bowumbu, akomona lisusu mokili oyo te. »
But he shall die in the place, whither they haue ledde him captiue, and shall see this lande no more.
13 « Mawa na moto oyo atongaka ndako na ye na nzela ya bosembo te, mpe bashambre na ye ya etaje, na nzela ya lokuta; oyo asalisaka bandeko na ye mosala ya pamba mpe afutaka bango eloko te;
Wo vnto him that buildeth his house by vnrighteousnesse, and his chambers without equitie: he vseth his neighbour without wages, and giueth him not for his worke.
14 oyo alobaka: ‹ Nakotongisa ndako monene oyo ekozala na bashambre minene, na etaje! › Boye atiaka yango maninisa minene, mabaya ya sedele na bamir na yango ya kati mpe akopakolaka yango langi ya motane.
He saith, I will build me a wide house and large chambers: so he will make him selfe large windowes, and feeling with cedar, and paint them with vermilion.
15 Okanisi ete kotondisa ndako na mabaya ya sedele nde ekolendisa bokonzi na yo? Tata na yo azangaki bilei mpe masanga te, kasi atambolaki na bosembo mpe na boyengebene; boye alongaki na makambo nyonso.
Shalt thou reigne, because thou closest thy selfe in cedar? did not thy father eate and drinke and prosper, when he executed iudgement and iustice?
16 Alongisaki babola mpe bato bakelela, mpe alongaki na makambo nyonso. Boni, yango te koyeba Ngai, » elobi Yawe?
When he iudged the cause of the afflicted and the poore, he prospered: was not this because he knewe me, saith the Lord?
17 « Kasi yo, miso mpe motema na yo elukaka kaka bomengo mpo na bolamu na yo moko kaka, na nzela ya kosopa makila ya bato oyo bayebi likambo te, na nzela ya konyokola bato mpe na nzela ya kobotola bango biloko. »
But thine eyes and thine heart are but only for thy couetousnesse, and for to sheade innocent blood, and for oppression, and for destruction, euen to doe this.
18 Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi mpo na Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda: « Bakosalela ye matanga te na koloba: ‹ Mawa, ndeko na ngai ya mobali! Mawa, ndeko na ngai ya mwasi! › Bakosalela ye matanga te na koloba: ‹ Mawa, nkolo na ngai! Mawa, mokonzi na ngai! ›
Therefore thus saith the Lord against Iehoiakim, the sonne of Iosiah king of Iudah, They shall not lament him, saying, Ah, my brother, or ah, sister: neither shall they mourne for him, saying, Ah, lord, or ah, his glorie.
19 Bakokunda ye ndenge bakundaka ane, bakobenda ye mpe bakobwaka ye libanda ya bikuke ya Yelusalemi. »
He shalbe buryed, as an asse is buryed, euen drawen and cast foorth without the gates of Ierusalem.
20 « Mata na Libani mpe ganga makasi! Tika ete mongongo na yo eyokana kino na Bashani! Ganga wuta na Abarimi, pamba te baninga na yo nyonso basili kokufa!
Goe vp to Lebanon, and cry: showte in Bashan and crye by the passages: for all thy louers are destroyed.
21 Nakebisaki yo tango ozalaki na kimia kasi olobaki: ‹ Nakoyoka te! › Ezaleli na yo ezalaka kaka boye wuta bolenge na yo, otosaka na yo Ngai te!
I spake vnto thee when thou wast in prosperitie: but thou saidest, I will not heare: this hath bene thy maner from thy youth, that thou wouldest not obey my voyce.
22 Mopepe ekomema bakambi na yo nyonso mpe baninga na yo bakokende na bowumbu. Okoyoka soni mpe okosambwa likolo ya mabe na yo nyonso.
The wind shall feede all thy pastors, and thy louers shall goe into captiuitie: and then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded of al thy wickednesse.
23 Yo oyo ovandaka na Libani, yo oyo otongaki zala na yo kati na bandako ya sedele, yeba ete okolela tango pasi ekokomela yo, pasi oyo ekokani na pasi ya mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota!
Thou that dwellest in Lebanon, and makest thy nest in the cedars, howe beautiful shalt thou be when sorowes come vpon thee, as the sorowe of a woman in trauaile?
24 Na Kombo na Ngai, » elobi Yawe, « ata soki yo Konia, mwana mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mokonzi ya Yuda, ozalaki lokola lopete na mosapi ya loboko na Ngai ya mobali, nakolongola yo kaka.
As I liue, saith the Lord, though Coniah the sonne of Iehoiakim King of Iudah, were the signet of my right hand, yet would I plucke thee thence.
25 Nakokaba yo na maboko ya bato oyo bazali na posa ya koboma yo, mpe na maboko ya bato oyo obangaka, epai ya Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, elongo na bato ya Babiloni.
And I will giue thee into the hande of them that seeke thy life, and into the hande of them, whose face thou fearest, euen into the hand of Nebuchad-nezzar king of Babel, and into the hande of the Caldeans.
26 Nakobengana yo elongo na mama oyo abota yo na mokili mosusu epai wapi moko te kati na bino abotama, mpe ekozala kuna nde bino mibale bokokufa.
And I will cause them to cary thee away, and thy mother that bare thee, into another countrey, where ye were not borne, and there shall ye die.
27 Bokotikala kozonga lisusu te na mokili oyo bozalaka na posa makasi ya kozonga. »
But to the lande, whereunto they desire to returne, they shall not returne thither.
28 Boni, moto oyo, Konia, azali te mbeki ya kopasuka oyo etiolama to eloko oyo ezanga tina? Mpo na nini babengana ye elongo na bana na ye mpe babwaka bango na mokili oyo bayebi te?
Is not this man Coniah as a despised and broken idole? or as a vessell, wherein is no pleasure? wherefore are they caryed away, hee and his seede, and cast out into a lande that they knowe not?
29 Oh mokili na ngai, mokili na ngai, mokili na ngai! Yoka Liloba na Yawe!
O earth, earth, earth, heare the worde of the Lord.
30 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Koma kombo ya moto oyo lokola moto oyo abota te, lokola moto oyo akolonga te na bomoi na ye, pamba te moko te kati na bana na ye akolonga, moko te akovanda lisusu na kiti ya bokonzi ya Davidi to akozala lisusu mokonzi ya Yuda. »
Thus saith the Lord, Write this man destitute of children, a man that shall not prosper in his dayes: for there shall be no man of his seede that shall prosper and sit vpon the throne of Dauid, or beare rule any more in Iudah.
