Jeremi 35
1 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi wana Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, azalaki mokonzi:
The worde which came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, in the dayes of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, saying,
2 « Kende epai ya bato ya libota ya Rekabi mpe bengisa bango ete baya kokota kati na moko ya bashambre ya Tempelo ya Yawe. Mpe pesa bango masanga ya vino ya komela kuna. »
Go vnto the house of the Rechabites, and speake vnto them, and bring them into the house of the Lord into one of the chambers, and giue them wine to drinke.
3 Boye, nakendeki kokutana na Yazania, mwana mobali ya Jeremi, mwana mobali ya Abatsinia, mpe bandeko na ye ya mibali elongo na bana na bango nyonso ya mibali: libota mobimba ya bato ya libota ya Rekabi.
Then tooke I Iaazaniah, the sonne of Ieremiah the sonne of Habazziniah, and his brethren, and all his sonnes, and the whole house of the Rechabites,
4 Namemaki bango na Tempelo ya Yawe, kati na shambre ya bana mibali ya Anani, mwana mobali ya Yigidalia, moto na Nzambe, pene ya shambre ya bakambi. Shambre yango ezalaki na sima ya shambre ya Maaseya, mwana mobali ya Shalumi, mokengeli ekuke.
And I brought them into the House of the Lord, into the chamber of the sonnes of Hanan, the sonne of Igdaliah a man of God, which was by the chamber of the princes, which was aboue the chamber of Maaseiah the sonne of Shallum, the keeper of the treasure.
5 Natiaki biloko etonda na vino mpe ndambo ya bakopo liboso ya bato ya libota ya Rekabi; mpe nalobaki na bango: — Bomela masanga ya vino.
And I set before the sonnes of the house of the Rechabites, pots full of wine, and cuppes, and said vnto them, Drinke wine.
6 Kasi bazongisaki: — Tomelaka masanga ya vino te, mpo ete koko na biso, Yonadabi, mwana mobali ya Rekabi, apesaki biso mobeko oyo: « Bokoki komela masanga ya vino te, ezala bino to bakitani na bino,
But they said, We will drinke no wine: for Ionadab the sonne of Rechab our father commanded vs, saying, Ye shall drinke no wine, neither you nor your sonnes for euer.
7 mpe bokoki kotonga bandako te, kosala bilanga te, kolona banzete ya vino te mpe bokoki kozala na biloko wana te; kasi bosengeli kaka kovanda tango nyonso na bandako ya kapo, mpo ete bozala na bomoi molayi kati na mokili oyo bozali baleki nzela. »
Neither shall ye build house, nor sow seede, nor plant vineyarde, nor haue any, but all your dayes ye shall dwell in tentes, that ye may liue a long time in the land where ye be strangers.
8 Totosaka makambo nyonso oyo koko na biso Yonadabi, mwana mobali ya Rekabi, ayebisa biso: Ezala biso, basi na biso, bana na biso ya mibali mpe ya basi, tomelaka masanga ya vino te,
Thus haue wee obeyed the voyce of Ionadab the sonne of Rechab our father, in all that he hath charged vs, and wee drinke no wine all our dayes, neither wee, our wiues, our sonnes, nor our daughters.
9 totongaka bandako te mpo na kovanda kuna, tozalaka na bilanga ya vino te, bilanga te mpe milona te;
Neither builde wee houses for vs to dwell in, neither haue we vineyard, nor fielde, nor seede,
10 tovandaka kaka na bandako ya kapo mpe totosaka makambo nyonso oyo koko na biso, Yonadabi, ayebisa biso.
But we haue remained in tentes, and haue obeyed, and done according to all that Ionadab our father commanded vs.
11 Kasi tango Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, abotolaki mokili oyo, tolobaki: « Boya, tokende na Yelusalemi mpo ete tobikisa bomoi na biso liboso ya basoda ya Babiloni mpe ya Siri. » Yango wana, toyaki kovanda na Yelusalemi.
But when Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel came vp into the land, we said, Come, and let vs go to Ierusalem, from the hoste of the Caldeans, and from the host of Aram: so we dwel at Ierusalem.
12 Bongo tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Jeremi:
Then came the word of the Lord vnto Ieremiah, saying,
13 — Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: Kende koyebisa bato ya Yuda mpe ya Yelusalemi: « Bokoki solo kozwa liteya te mpe kotosa maloba na Ngai te, » elobi Yawe?
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Goe, and tell the men of Iudah, and the inhabitants of Ierusalem, Will ye not receiue doctrine to obey my wordes, saith the Lord?
14 « Yonadabi, mwana mobali ya Rekabi, apesaki mobeko epai ya bana na ye ete bamela masanga ya vino te, mpe babatelaka mobeko yango. Kino na mokolo ya lelo, bamelaka masanga ya vino te mpo na kotosa mobeko oyo koko na bango apesaki bango. Nzokande, tango na tango, Ngai nazalaki koloba na bino, kasi bozalaki koyoka Ngai te.
The commandement of Ionadab the sonne of Rechab that hee commanded his sonnes, that they should drinke no wine, is surely kept: for vnto this day they drinke none, but obey their fathers commandement: notwithstanding I haue spoken vnto you, rising earely, and speaking, but ye would not obey me.
15 Nazalaki tango na tango kotindela bino basali na Ngai nyonso, basakoli, mpo na koloba na bino: ‹ Tika ete moko na moko kati na bino atika nzela na ye ya mabe mpe abongola bizaleli na ye; bosalela banzambe mosusu te mpo ete bokoka kovanda kati na mokili oyo napesaki bino mpe batata na bino. › Kasi boyokaki Ngai te mpe botosaki Ngai te.
I haue sent also vnto you all my seruants the Prophetes, rising vp earely, and sending, them, saying, Returne nowe euery man from his euill way, and amende your workes, and goe not after other gods to serue them, and ye shall dwel in the lande which I haue giuen vnto you, and to your fathers, but ye would not encline your eare, nor obey mee.
16 Bakitani ya Yonadabi, mwana mobali ya Rekabi, babatelaki mobeko oyo koko na bango apesa bango, kasi bato oyo baboyi kotosa Ngai. »
Surely the sonnes of Ionadab the sonne of Rechab, haue kept the commandement of their father, which he gaue them, but this people hath not obeyed me.
17 Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga mpe Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Boyoka! Nakoyeisa na mokili ya Yuda mpe epai ya bavandi nyonso ya Yelusalemi pasi oyo nakataki; pamba te nalobaki na bango kasi bayokaki Ngai te, nabengaki bango kasi bayanolaki Ngai te. »
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Beholde, I will bring vpon Iudah, and vpon all the inhabitants of Ierusalem, all the euill that I haue pronounced against them, because I haue spoke vnto them, but they would not heare, and I haue called vnto them, but they would not answere.
18 Boye, Jeremi alobaki na bato ya libota ya Rekabi: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Lokola botosaka mobeko ya koko na bino Yonadabi, bolandaka malako nyonso oyo ayebisa bino mpe bosalelaka makambo nyonso oyo atinda bino,
And Ieremiah said to the house of the Rechabites, Thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Because ye haue obeyed the commandement of Ionadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according vnto all that hee hath commanded you,
19 tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Yonadabi, mwana mobali ya Rekabi, akotikala kozanga te moto oyo akosalela Ngai. › »
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Ionadab the sonne of Rechab shall not want a man, to stand before me for euer.
