< Jeremi 27 >
1 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na Jeremi, na ebandeli ya bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda:
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word has been to Jeremiah from YHWH, saying,
2 Tala liloba oyo Ngai Yawe nalobi: « Sala ekangiseli na basinga mpe banzete mpe kanga yango na kingo na yo.
“Thus said YHWH to me: Make bands and yokes for yourself,
3 Bongo tinda maloba epai ya bakonzi ya Edomi, ya Moabi, ya Amoni, ya Tiri mpe ya Sidoni na nzela ya batindami oyo bayei na Yelusalemi mpo na kokutana na Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda.
and you have put them on your neck, and have sent them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the sons of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of messengers who are coming to Jerusalem, to Zedekiah king of Judah;
4 Pesa bango sango oyo bakomemela bakonzi na bango mpe yebisa bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‘Boyebisa bakonzi na bino maloba oyo:
and you have commanded them for their lords, saying, Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel:
5 Ngai nde nasalaki mabele, nasalaki bato mpe banyama nyonso oyo bazali kati na yango, na nguya monene na Ngai mpe na loboko na Ngai oyo esembolama. Napesaka mabele yango epai ya moto nyonso oyo Ngai nalingi.
Thus you say to your lords, I have made the earth with man, and the livestock that [are] on the face of the earth, by My great power, and by My outstretched arm, and I have given it to whom it has been right in My eyes.
6 Sik’oyo, Ngai, nakabi mikili oyo nyonso na maboko ya mosali na Ngai, Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni; nakabi mpe na maboko na ye ata banyama ya zamba mpo ete etosa ye.
And now, I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and I have also given the beast of the field to him to serve him;
7 Bikolo nyonso ekotosa ye, mwana na ye ya mobali mpe koko na ye, kino tango ya mokili na ye mpe ekokoka; bongo bikolo ebele mpe bakonzi ya nguya bakokonza ye.
and all the nations have served him, and his son, and his son’s son, until the coming in of the time of his land, also it; and many nations and great kings have made him serve them.
8 Soki ekolo moko to mokili moko eboyi kosalela Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, to eboyi komema mokumba ya ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, nakopesa ekolo yango etumbu na nzela mopanga, ya nzala makasi mpe ya bokono oyo ebomaka, elobi Yawe, kino nakobebisa yango na nzela ya loboko na ye.
And it has come to pass, the nation and the kingdom that does not serve him—Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon—and that which does not put its neck into the yoke of the king of Babylon, with sword, and with famine, and with pestilence, I lay a charge on that nation—a declaration of YHWH—until I consume them by his hand.
9 Boye, boyokela te basakoli na bino, bato na bino ya soloka, bato na bino oyo balimbolaka bandoto, bato na bino oyo basololaka na bakufi, oyo bazali koloba na bino ete bosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni te.
And you, you do not listen to your prophets, and to your diviners, and to your dreamers, and to your observers of clouds, and to your sorcerers who are speaking to you, saying, You do not serve the king of Babylon—
10 Bazali kosakola makambo ya lokuta, kaka mpo na komema bino mosika ya mokili na bino. Ngai nakobengana bino solo mpe bokokufa.
For they are prophesying falsehood to you, so as to remove you far from your ground, and I have driven you out, and you have perished.
11 Kasi soki ekolo moko endimi komema mokumba ya ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe endimi kosalela ye, nakotika ekolo yango na kimia kati na mokili na bango mpo ete basala bilanga mpe bawumela kuna, elobi Yawe.’ › »
And the nation that causes its neck to enter into the yoke of the king of Babylon, and has served him—I have left it on its ground—a declaration of YHWH—and it has tilled it, and dwelt in it.”
12 Bongo napesaki sango kaka wana epai ya Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda: « Bomema mokumba ya ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe bosalela ye elongo na bato na ye, bongo bokobika!
And I have spoken to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, “Cause your necks to enter into the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
13 Mpo na nini bino elongo na bato na bino bokufa na mopanga, na nzala makasi mpe na bokono oyo ebomaka ndenge Yawe akataki mpo na ekolo nyonso oyo ekoboya kosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni?
Why do you die, you and your people, by sword, by famine, and by pestilence, as YHWH has spoken concerning the nation that does not serve the king of Babylon?
14 Boyoka te maloba ya basakoli oyo bazali koloba na bino: ‹ Bokosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni te! › Bazali kosakola makambo ya lokuta.
And you do not listen to the words of the prophets who are speaking to you, saying, You do not serve the king of Babylon—for they are prophesying falsehood to you.
15 Natindaki bango te, » elobi Yawe, « bazali kosakola makambo ya lokuta na Kombo na Ngai. Nakobengana bino mpe bokokufa, bino mpe basakoli oyo bazali kosakola epai na bino. »
For I have not sent them—a declaration of YHWH—and they are prophesying falsely in My Name, so as to drive you out, and you have perished, you and the prophets who are prophesying to you.”
16 Bongo nalobaki na Banganga-Nzambe mpe na bato nyonso: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe alobi: Boyoka te basakoli na bino, oyo bazali koloba: ‹ Tala, bisalelo ya Tempelo ya Yawe ekozonga noki wuta na Babiloni. › Bazali koloba na bino makambo ya lokuta!
And to the priests, and to all this people, I have spoken, saying, “Thus said YHWH: You do not listen to the words of your prophets, who are prophesying to you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the house of YHWH are now brought back from Babylon in haste, for they are prophesying falsehood to you.
17 Boyoka bango te! Bosalela mokonzi ya Babiloni, bongo bokobika! Mpo na nini engumba oyo ebebisama?
You do not listen to them; serve the king of Babylon and live! Why is this city a ruin?
18 Soki bazali solo basakoli mpe Liloba na Yawe ezali kati na bango, tika ete basambela Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, mpo ete bisalelo oyo etikalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya Yuda mpe kati na Yelusalemi ekende na Babiloni te.
And if they are prophets, and if a word of YHWH is with them, let them now intercede with YHWH of Hosts, so that the vessels that are left in the house of YHWH, and [in] the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, have not gone into Babylon.
19 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi na tina na makonzi, nzungu ya monene ya bronze, bivandelo na yango mpe bisalelo mosusu oyo etikalaki kati na engumba wana,
For thus said YHWH of Hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left in this city,
20 bisalelo oyo Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, atikaki tango amemaki Yekonia, mwana mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mokonzi ya Yuda, na bowumbu longwa na Yelusalemi kino na Babiloni, elongo na bankumu nyonso ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi;
that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has not taken, in his removing Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah from Jerusalem to Babylon with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem,
21 tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na biloko oyo etikalaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya Yuda mpe kati na Yelusalemi:
surely thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are left of the house of YHWH, and of the house of the king of Judah, and [in] Jerusalem:
22 ‹ Bakomema yango na Babiloni, mpe ekotikala kuna kino na mokolo oyo nakolandela yango, › elobi Yawe, ‹ nakolongola yango mpe nakozongisa yango na esika oyo, elobi Yawe. › »
They are brought to Babylon, and there they are until the day of My inspecting them—a declaration of YHWH; then I have brought them up, and have brought them back to this place.”
