< Jeremi 30 >

1 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi:
The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
2 « Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Koma kati na buku makambo nyonso oyo nayebisaki yo.
“This is what Yahweh, God of Israel, says, 'Write in a scroll all the words that I have spoken to you.
3 Tango ezali koya, › elobi Yawe, ‹ tango oyo nakokangola bato na Ngai, Isalaele, mpe Yuda kati na bowumbu; mpe nakozongisa bango na mokili oyo napesaki epai ya bakoko na bango mpo ete bakamata yango, › elobi Yawe. »
For look, days are coming—this is Yahweh's declaration—when I will restore the fortunes of my people, Israel and Judah. I, Yahweh, have said it. For I will bring them back to the land that I gave their ancestors, and they will possess it.'”
4 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na tina na Isalaele mpe Yuda:
These are the words that Yahweh declared concerning Israel and Judah,
5 « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Koganga ya kobanga mpe ya somo nde ezali koyokana; kimia ezali lisusu te.
“For Yahweh says this, 'We have heard a trembling voice of dread and not of peace.
6 Botuna mpe botala: Boni, mobali akoki kobota bana? Bongo mpo na nini nazali komona moto nyonso ya makasi asimbi libumu na ye lokola mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota mpe elongi na ye ekomi mawa-mawa?
Ask and see if a man bears a child. Why do I see every young man with his hand on his loins like a woman bearing a child? Why have all their faces become pale?
7 Mawa! Ekozala penza mokolo ya somo! Mokolo moko te ekokokana na yango! Ekozala tango ya pasi mpo na Jakobi, kasi akobikisama na pasi yango.
Woe! For that day will be great, with none like it. It will be a time of anxiety for Jacob, but he will be rescued from it.
8 Na mokolo wana, › elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, ‹ nakobuka ekangiseli na bakingo na bango, nakokata basinga oyo bakangelaki bango mpe bakozala lisusu te bawumbu ya bapaya.
For it will be in that day—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts—that I will break the yoke off your neck, and I will shatter your chains, so foreigners will no longer enslave you.
9 Nzokande, bakosalela Yawe, Nzambe na bango, mpe Davidi, mokonzi oyo nakotia mpo ete akamba bango.
But they will worship Yahweh their God and serve David their king, whom I will make king over them.
10 Oh Jakobi, mosali na Ngai, kobanga te! Oh Isalaele, kozala na somo te, › elobi Yawe. ‹ Solo, nakobikisa yo wuta na mokili ya mosika, mpe bakitani na yo, wuta na mokili ya bowumbu! Jakobi akozwa lisusu kimia mpe bopemi, mpe moto moko te akobangisa ye lisusu.
So you, my servant Jacob, do not fear—this is Yahweh's declaration—and do not be dismayed, Israel. For see, I am about to bring you back from far away, and your descendants from the land of captivity. Jacob will return and be at peace; he will be secure, and there will be no more terror.
11 Nazali elongo na yo mpe nakobikisa yo, › elobi Yawe. ‹ Ata nakobebisa nye bikolo nyonso epai wapi napanzaki bino; kasi bino, nakobebisa bino nye te; solo, nakopesa bino etumbu, kasi ekozala na ndenge ya bosembo; nakozanga te kopamela bino. ›
For I am with you—this is Yahweh's declaration—to save you. Then I will bring a complete end to all the nations where I have scattered you. But I will certainly not put an end to you, though I discipline you justly and will certainly not leave you unpunished.'
12 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Pota na yo ekobika te mpe pasi na yo ekosila te.
For Yahweh says this, 'Your injury is incurable; your wound is infected.
13 Moto akolobela yo akozala te, kisi ezali te mpo na pota na yo, lobiko ezali te mpo na yo.
There is no one to plead your case; there is no remedy for your wound to heal you.
14 Baninga na yo nyonso babosani yo, bazali komitungisa lisusu te mpo na yo. Nabetaki yo penza ndenge monguna abetaka, napesaki yo penza etumbu na kanda makasi, pamba te ngambo na yo ezalaki monene mpe masumu na yo eleki ebele.
All of your lovers have forgotten you. They will not look for you, for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy and the discipline of a cruel master because of your many iniquities and your innumerable sins.
15 Mpo na nini ozali koganga mpo na pota na yo, mpe pasi na yo ezali kosila te? Nasali yo boye mpo ete ngambo na yo ezali monene, mpe masumu na yo eleki ebele.
Why do you call for help for your injury? Your pain is incurable. Because of your many iniquities, your innumerable sins, I have done these things to you.
16 Kasi bato nyonso oyo bakosala yo mabe, bakosala bango mpe mabe; banguna na yo nyonso bakokende na bowumbu; bato oyo babotolaki yo biloko, bakobotola bango mpe biloko; bato oyo banyokolaki yo, bakonyokola mpe bango.
So everyone who consumes you will be consumed, and all of your adversaries will go into captivity. For the ones who have plundered you will become plunder, and I will make all of the ones despoiling you a spoil.
17 Nakozongisela yo bomengo na yo mpe nakobikisa bapota na yo, › elobi Yawe. ‹ Lokola bazalaki kobenga yo ekolo basundola, Siona oyo moto moko te ayokelaka mawa; ›
For I will bring healing on you; I will heal you of your wounds—this is Yahweh's declaration— I will do this because they called you: Outcast. No one cares for this Zion.'”
18 tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Nakozongisa lisusu bomengo kati na bandako ya kapo ya Jakobi mpe nakoyokela bandako na ye mawa; bakotonga lisusu engumba Siona oyo ebukana-bukana mpe ndako ya mokonzi, na esika na yango ya kala.
Yahweh says this, “See, I am about to bring back the fortunes of Jacob's tents and have compassion on his homes. Then a city will be built on the heap of ruins, and a stronghold will exist again where it used to be.
19 Nzembo ya matondi mpe mingongo ya esengo ekobima kati na bango. Nakokomisa bango ebele, mpe motango na bango ekokoma ebele; nakopesa bango lokumu, mpe bakotiolama lisusu te.
Then a song of praise and a sound of merriment will go out from them, for I will increase them and not diminish them; I will honor them so they will not be humbled.
20 Bana na bango ya mibali bakozala lokola na tango ya kala, mpe lingomba na bango ekowumela liboso na Ngai; nakopesa etumbu na bato nyonso oyo bazali konyokola bango.
Then their people will be like before, and their assembly will be established before me when I punish all the ones who are now tormenting them.
21 Mokonzi na bango akowuta kati na bango, mpe mokambi na bango akowuta kaka kati na bango; nakobenda bango pene na Ngai mpe bakoya pene na Ngai, pamba te nani azali na nguya ya kopusana pene na Ngai? › elobi Yawe.
Their leader will come from among them. He will emerge from their midst when I draw him near and when he approaches me. If I do not do this, who would dare come close to me?—this is Yahweh's declaration.
22 ‹ Boye, bokozala bato na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakozala Nzambe na bino. › »
Then you will be my people, and I will be your God.
23 Tala, mopepe ya Yawe etomboki, kanda makasi na Ye epeli, bakake ezali konguluma na likolo, mpe ezali kokweya na mito ya bato mabe.
See, the tempest of Yahweh, his fury, has gone out. It is a continual tempest. It will whirl on the heads of the wicked people.
24 Kanda makasi ya Yawe ekozonga te kino tango ekokokisa mabongisi ya motema na Ye. Bokososola yango penza na mikolo ekoya.
Yahweh's wrath will not return until it has carried out and brought into being his heart's intentions. In the final days, you will understand it.”
