Jeremi 28

1 Kaka na mobu wana, mobu ya minei, na ebandeli ya bokonzi ya Sedesiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, na sanza ya mitano, mosakoli Anania, mwana mobali ya Azuri, moto ya mboka Gabaoni, alobaki na ngai kati na Tempelo ya Yawe na miso ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe ya bato nyonso:

That same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the LORD’s house, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

2 « Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Nakobuka ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni.

“The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Etikali kaka mibu mibale; nakozongisa na esika oyo bisalelo nyonso ya Tempelo ya Yawe, oyo Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, azwaki na esika oyo mpe amemaki na Babiloni.

Within two full years I will bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD’s house that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place and carried to Babylon.

4 Nakozongisa lisusu na esika oyo: Yekonia, mwana mobali ya Yeoyakimi, mokonzi ya Yuda, mpe bato nyonso oyo, wuta na Yuda, bakendeki na bowumbu, na Babiloni, › elobi Yawe, ‹ pamba te nakobuka ekangiseli ya mokonzi ya Babiloni. › »

I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to Babylon,’ says the LORD; ‘for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.’”

5 Bongo Mosakoli Jeremi azongiselaki mosakoli Anania eyano na miso ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe ya bato nyonso oyo batelemaki kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who stood in the LORD’s house,

6 Mosakoli Jeremi alobaki: « Amen! Tika ete Yawe asala bongo! Tika ete Yawe akokisa maloba oyo osili kosakola, azongisa na esika oyo, wuta na Babiloni, bisalelo ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe bato nyonso oyo bakendeki na bowumbu!

even the prophet Jeremiah said, “Amen! May the LORD do so. May the LORD perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the LORD’s house, and all those who are captives, from Babylon to this place.

7 Nzokande, yoka maloba oyo nalingi koloba na yo mpe na bato nyonso:

Nevertheless listen now to this word that I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people:

8 Wuta kala, basakoli oyo basakolaki liboso ete yo mpe ngai tozala, basakolaki bitumba, pasi mpe bokono oyo ebomaka, mpo na kotelemela bikolo ebele mpe mikili ya makasi;

The prophets who have been before me and before you of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, of evil, and of pestilence.

9 kasi soki mosakoli asakoli kimia, akondimama ete azali solo mosakoli oyo Yawe atindi masakoli na ye ekokisami. »

As for the prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet happens, then the prophet will be known, that the LORD has truly sent him.”

10 Bongo mosakoli Anania alongolaki ekangiseli na kingo ya mosakoli Jeremi mpe abukaki yango.

Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off the prophet Jeremiah’s neck, and broke it.

11 Anania alobaki liboso ya bato nyonso: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Liboso ete mibu mibale ekoka, nakobuka ndenge wana ekangiseli ya Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, na kingo ya bikolo nyonso. › » Mpe mosakoli Jeremi akendeki na ye.

Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, “The LORD says: ‘Even so I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from off the neck of all the nations within two full years.’” Then the prophet Jeremiah went his way.

12 Sima na mosakoli Anania kobuka ekangiseli na kingo ya mosakoli Jeremi, Yawe alobaki na Jeremi:

Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,

13 « Kende koloba na Anania: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Solo, obuki ekangiseli ya banzete; kasi na esika na yango, okolata nde ekangiseli ya ebende.

“Go, and tell Hananiah, saying, ‘The LORD says, “You have broken the bars of wood, but you have made in their place bars of iron.”

14 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Nasili kotia ekangiseli ya ebende na kingo ya bikolo nyonso mpo ete esalela Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, mpe ekosalela ye solo. Nakopesa ye bokonzi ata likolo ya banyama ya zamba. › »

For the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says, “I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they will serve him. I have also given him the animals of the field.”’”

15 Bongo mosakoli Jeremi alobaki lisusu na mosakoli Anania: « Anania, yoka! Yawe atindi yo te; mpe ozali kotindika bato oyo na kotia motema na makambo ya lokuta!

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, “Listen, Hananiah! The LORD has not sent you, but you make this people trust in a lie.

16 Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Nakolongola yo na mokili oyo, okokufa kaka na mobu oyo; pamba te otindiki bato na kotombokela Yawe. › »

Therefore the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will send you away from off the surface of the earth. This year you will die, because you have spoken rebellion against the LORD.’”

17 Kaka na mobu wana, na sanza ya sambo, mosakoli Anania akufaki.

So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
