< Jeremi 33 >

1 Yawe alobaki na Jeremi, na mbala ya mibale, wana azalaki nanu ya kokangama kati na boloko oyo ezalaki kati na lopango ya bakengeli:
Moreover the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still locked up in the court of the guard, saying,
2 « Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Ye oyo akela mabele, oyo abongisa yango malamu mpe alendisa yango, oyo Kombo na Ye ezali Yawe, alobi:
“The LORD who does it, the LORD who forms it to establish it—the LORD is his name, says:
3 ‹ Belela Ngai, mpe Ngai nakoyanola yo, nakoyebisa yo makambo minene mpe mabombami oyo oyebi te. ›
‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you don’t know.’
4 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi na tina na bandako ya engumba oyo mpe ya bandako ya bakonzi ya Yuda, oyo babukaki mpo na kotelemela bangomba mike ya kokimela mpe mopanga ya monguna
For the LORD, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defence against the mounds and against the sword:
5 kati na etumba na bato ya Babiloni: ‹ Bandako yango ekotonda na bibembe ya bato oyo nakoboma na nguya ya kotomboka mpe ya kanda na Ngai. Nakobombela engumba oyo elongi na Ngai likolo ya mabe na yango nyonso.
‘While men come to fight with the Kasdim, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have killed in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidden my face from this city,
6 Kasi nakoyeisa bato na yango nzoto kolongono mpe nakobikisa bango; solo, nakobikisa bato na Ngai mpe nakopesa bango bomoi ya kimia kati na bobatelami.
behold, I will bring it health and healing, and I will cure them; and I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
7 Nakokangola bato ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele longwa na bowumbu mpe nakokomisa bango lisusu ndenge bazalaki liboso.
I will restore the fortunes of Judah and Israel, and will build them as at the first.
8 Nakopetola bango na masumu nyonso oyo basalaki liboso na Ngai. Nakolimbisa masumu nyonso ya botomboki oyo basalaki liboso na Ngai.
I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against me. I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against me and by which they have transgressed against me.
9 Boye engumba oyo, Yelusalemi, ekosala lokumu, esengo, masanzoli mpe nkembo ya Kombo na Ngai liboso ya bikolo nyonso ya mabele, oyo ekoyoka sango ya makambo nyonso ya kitoko oyo nakosala mpo na yango. Bikolo yango ekokamwa mpe ekolenga na somo ya komona makambo nyonso ya kitoko mpe kimia oyo nakopesa na engumba yango. ›
This city will be to me for a name of joy, for praise, and for glory, before all the nations of the earth, which will hear all the good that I do to them, and will fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I provide to it.’”
10 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Bozali koloba na tina na esika oyo: ‘Eh! Esika oyo ebeba! Ezalaka lisusu na bato mpe banyama te!’ Nzokande, kati na bingumba ya Yuda mpe na babalabala ya Yelusalemi oyo ekoma polele, ezanga bato mpe banyama, ekozala lisusu na lokito:
The LORD says: “Yet again there will be heard in this place, about which you say, ‘It is waste, without man and without animal, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without animal,’
11 ekoyokana kuna lokito ya banzembo ya esengo mpe ya masanzoli, mingongo ya mobandami na libala ya mwasi mpe ya mobali, mpe mingongo ya bato oyo bazali kobonza kati na Tempelo ya Yawe makabo ya kozongisa matondi, na koloba: ‘Bozongisa matondi epai na Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, mpo ete Yawe azali malamu; bolingo na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko!’ Pamba te nakozongisa lisusu kitoko ya mokili yango ndenge ezalaki liboso, › elobi Yawe.
the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good, for his loving kindness endures forever;’ who bring thanksgiving into the LORD’s house. For I will cause the captivity of the land to be reversed as at the first,” says the LORD.
12 Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: ‹ Kati na esika oyo ebebisama mpe ezanga bato to banyama, mpe kati na bingumba na yango nyonso, ekozala na lisusu na bitando ya matiti mpo na babateli bibwele, bitando epai wapi bakoleisa bibwele na bango.
The LORD of Hosts says: “Yet again there will be in this place, which is waste, without man and without animal, and in all its cities, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
13 Kati na bingumba ya bangomba, kati na bingumba ya bitando mpe kati na bingumba ya Negevi, kati na etuka ya Benjame, kati na bamboka oyo ezali zingazinga ya Yelusalemi mpe kati na bingumba ya Yuda, bibwele ekoleka lisusu na se ya loboko ya moto oyo atangaka yango, › elobi Yawe.
In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South, in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of him who counts them,” says the LORD.
14 ‹ Na mikolo ekoya, › elobi Yawe, ‹ nakokokisa elaka kitoko oyo napesaki na mabota ya Isalaele mpe ya Yuda.
“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
15 Na mikolo yango mpe na tango yango, nakobimisa Moto ya nzete ya sembo wuta na libota ya Davidi; akosala makambo ya sembo mpe ya boyengebene kati na mokili.
“In those days and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David. He will execute justice and righteousness in the land.
16 Na mikolo wana, Yuda ekobikisama, mpe Yelusalemi ekozala na kimia. Tala kombo oyo bakobengela yango: Yawe azali Bosembo na biso. ›
In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell safely. This is the name by which she will be called: The LORD our righteousness.”
17 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Davidi akozalaka tango nyonso na moto oyo akovanda na kiti ya bokonzi ya libota ya Isalaele;
For the LORD says: “David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel.
18 Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazali bakitani ya Levi bakozalaka tango nyonso na bakitani oyo bakobanda kotelema tango nyonso liboso na Ngai mpo na kotumba mbeka, kobonza mbeka ya gato mpe kobonza makabo. › »
The Levitical priests won’t lack a man before me to offer burnt offerings, to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.”
19 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi:
The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
20 « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Soki bolongi kokata boyokani na Ngai elongo na moyi, mpe boyokani na Ngai elongo na butu, mpo ete moyi mpe butu ekoma lisusu te na tango na yango,
“The LORD says: ‘If you can break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night, so that there will not be day and night in their time,
21 wana bokolonga penza kokata boyokani na Ngai elongo na Davidi, mosali na Ngai, mpe Davidi akotikala kozala lisusu te na mokitani na kiti ya bokonzi, mpe bokolonga kokata boyokani na Ngai elongo na Balevi oyo bazali Banganga-Nzambe oyo basalelaka Ngai.
then my covenant could also be broken with David my servant, that he won’t have a son to reign on his throne; and with the Levitical priests, my ministers.
22 Ndenge kaka bakoki kotanga te mampinga ya likolo mpe zelo ya bibale minene mpo na koyeba motango na yango, ndenge wana mpe nakokomisa ebele, bakitani ya Davidi, mosali na Ngai, mpe Balevi oyo basalelaka Ngai. › »
As the army of the sky can’t be counted, and the sand of the sea can’t be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my servant and the Levites who minister to me.’”
23 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi:
The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
24 « Boni! Bozali koyoka te makambo bato oyo bazali kosala? Bazali koloba: ‹ Yawe asundoli bituka mibale oyo aponaki. › Na bongo, bazali kotiola bato na Ngai, mpe moto ata moko te azali kozwa bango lokola ekolo.
“Don’t consider what this people has spoken, saying, ‘Has the LORD cast off the two families which he chose?’ Thus they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.”
25 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Soki nasalaki boyokani te elongo na moyi mpe elongo na butu, mpe soki napesaki likolo mpe mabele mibeko te,
The LORD says: “If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,
26 wana nakokaki kobwaka bakitani ya Jakobi mpe ya Davidi, mosali na Ngai, mpe nalingaki te kopona moko kati na bana na ye mpo ete akamba bakitani ya Abrayami, ya Izaki mpe ya Jakobi. Nakozongisa lisusu kitoko ya mokili na bango mpe nakoyokela bango mawa. › »
then I will also cast away the offspring of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his offspring to be rulers over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to be reversed and will have mercy on them.”
