Jeremi 26
1 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki, na ebandeli ya bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda:
At the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came from the LORD:
2 « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Telema kati na lopango ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe loba na bato nyonso ya bingumba ya Yuda, oyo bayaka kogumbamela Yawe kati na Tempelo. Yebisa bango maloba nyonso oyo nasili kotinda yo; kolongola ata liloba moko te.
“This is what the LORD says: Stand in the courtyard of the house of the LORD and speak all the words I have commanded you to speak to all the cities of Judah who come to worship there. Do not omit a word.
3 Tango mosusu bakoyoka, mpe moko na moko kati na bango akotika nzela na ye ya mabe; bongo Ngai nakobongola mokano oyo nasilaki kozwa ya kotindela bango pasi likolo ya misala na bango ya mabe.
Perhaps they will listen and turn—each from his evil way of life—so that I may relent of the disaster I am planning to bring upon them because of the evil of their deeds.
4 Loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Soki boyokeli Ngai te, soki boboyi kotosa malakisi oyo napesaki bino
And you are to tell them that this is what the LORD says: ‘If you do not listen to Me and walk in My law, which I have set before you,
5 mpe boboyi kotosa maloba ya basali na Ngai, basakoli, oyo nazalaki kotindela bino tango na tango atako boboyaki koyokela bango,
and if you do not listen to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I have sent you again and again even though you did not listen,
6 nakosala na Ndako oyo, makambo oyo nasalaki na Silo; mpe bikolo nyonso ya mokili ekobanda kotangaka kombo ya engumba oyo mpo na kolakela mabe. › »
then I will make this house like Shiloh, and I will make this city an object of cursing among all the nations of the earth.’”
7 Banganga-Nzambe, basakoli mpe bato nyonso bazalaki koyoka Jeremi koloba maloba oyo kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
Now the priests and prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the LORD,
8 Kasi tango Jeremi asilisaki koloba na bato nyonso maloba oyo Yawe atindaki ye, Banganga-Nzambe, basakoli mpe bato nyonso bakangaki ye mpe balobaki: « Okokufa!
and as soon as he had finished telling all the people everything the LORD had commanded him to say, the priests and prophets and all the people seized him, shouting, “You must surely die!
9 Mpo na nini ozali kosakola na Kombo na Yawe ete Ndako oyo ekokoma lokola Silo; engumba oyo ekobebisama, ekotikala lisusu na bato te? » Ebele ya bato nyonso bazingelaki Jeremi kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
How dare you prophesy in the name of the LORD that this house will become like Shiloh and this city will be desolate and deserted!” And all the people assembled against Jeremiah in the house of the LORD.
10 Tango bakalaka ya Yuda bayokaki makambo oyo nyonso, balongwaki na ndako ya mokonzi, bakendeki na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe bavandaki liboso ya Ekuke ya Sika ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
When the officials of Judah heard these things, they went up from the king’s palace to the house of the LORD and sat there at the entrance of the New Gate.
11 Banganga-Nzambe mpe basakoli balobaki na bakambi mpe na bato nyonso: « Moto oyo asengeli kokufa, pamba te asakoli mabe mpo na engumba oyo. Bino moko boyoki yango na matoyi na bino! »
Then the priests and prophets said to the officials and all the people, “This man is worthy of death, for he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your own ears!”
12 Jeremi alobaki na bakambi mpe na bato nyonso: « Yawe atindi ngai kosakola mpo na Ndako mpe engumba oyo, makambo nyonso oyo bosili koyoka.
But Jeremiah said to all the officials and all the people, “The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that you have heard.
13 Bobongola sik’oyo bizaleli mpe misala na bino, mpe botosa Yawe, Nzambe na bino; mpe Yawe akobongola mokano oyo asilaki kozwa, mpe akotindela bino lisusu te pasi oyo alakaki bino.
So now, correct your ways and deeds, and obey the voice of the LORD your God, so that He might relent of the disaster He has pronounced against you.
14 Bongo mpo na ngai, nazali na maboko na bino, bosala ngai makambo nyonso oyo bomoni ete ezali malamu mpe sembo.
As for me, here I am in your hands; do to me what you think is good and right.
15 Kasi boyeba ete soki bobomi ngai, bokomema ngambo ya pamba na bomoi na bino mpe na engumba oyo elongo na bavandi na yango nyonso, likolo ya makila ya moto oyo ayebi likambo te; pamba te, solo penza, Yawe nde atindaki ngai epai na bino mpo na koyebisa bino maloba nyonso oyo, mpo ete boyoka yango. »
But know for certain that if you put me to death, you will bring innocent blood upon yourselves, upon this city, and upon its residents; for truly the LORD has sent me to speak all these words in your hearing.”
16 Bakambi mpe bato nyonso balobaki epai ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe basakoli: « Esengeli te koboma moto oyo! Azali solo koloba na biso na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe na biso. »
Then the officials and all the people told the priests and prophets, “This man is not worthy of death, for he has spoken to us in the name of the LORD our God!”
17 Ndambo ya bakambi ya mokili batelemaki mpe balobaki na lisanga mobimba ya bato:
Some of the elders of the land stood up and said to the whole assembly of the people,
18 « Mosakoli Mishe, moto ya Moresheti, asakolaki na tango ya Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda; alobaki na bato nyonso ya Yuda: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: Bakobalola Siona ndenge babalolaka mabele ya bilanga, Yelusalemi ekokoma liboke ya mabanga, mpe ngomba epai wapi batongaki Tempelo ekokoma ngomba moke oyo ezipami na matiti. ›
“Micah the Moreshite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah and told all the people of Judah that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Zion will be plowed like a field, Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble, and the temple mount a wooded ridge.’
19 Boni, Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, to moto mosusu kati na Yuda abomaki ye? Ezekiasi atosaki Yawe te mpe asalelaki mosakoli Mishe ngolu te? Yawe abongolaki mokano na Ye te ya kotindela bango pasi oyo alakaki? Tokomibendela biso moko pasi ya makasi na pamba. »
Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in Judah put him to death? Did Hezekiah not fear the LORD and seek His favor, and did not the LORD relent of the disaster He had pronounced against them? But we are about to bring great harm on ourselves!”
20 Nzokande, Iri, mwana mobali ya Shemaya, moto ya Kiriati-Yearimi, azalaki mpe kosakola na Kombo na Yawe. Azalaki kaka kosakola makambo moko na Jeremi na tina na engumba mpe mokili oyo.
Now there was another man prophesying in the name of the LORD, Uriah son of Shemaiah from Kiriath-jearim. He prophesied against this city and against this land the same things that Jeremiah did.
21 Tango mokonzi Yeoyakimi elongo na bakalaka na ye nyonso mpe bakambi bayokaki maloba ya Iri, balukaki koboma ye. Kasi tango Iri ayokaki yango, abangaki makasi mpe akimaki na Ejipito.
King Jehoiakim and all his mighty men and officials heard his words, and the king sought to put him to death. But when Uriah found out about it, he fled in fear and went to Egypt.
22 Mokonzi Yeoyakimi atindaki Elinatani, mwana mobali ya Akibori, na Ejipito elongo na bato mosusu.
Then King Jehoiakim sent men to Egypt: Elnathan son of Achbor along with some other men.
23 Babimisaki Iri na Ejipito mpe bamemaki ye epai ya mokonzi Yeoyakimi oyo abomaki ye na mopanga mpe apesaki mitindo ete babwaka ebembe na ye kati na kunda oyo bakundaka bato pamba.
They brought Uriah out of Egypt and took him to King Jehoiakim, who had him put to the sword and his body thrown into the burial place of the common people.
24 Nzokande Ayikami, mwana mobali ya Shafani, abatelaki Jeremi; boye akabamaki te na maboko ya bato mpo ete baboma ye.
Nevertheless, Ahikam son of Shaphan supported Jeremiah, so he was not handed over to the people to be put to death.
