Jeremi 38
1 Shefatia, mwana mobali ya Matani; Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Pashuri; Yukali, mwana mobali ya Shelemia; mpe Pashuri, mwana mobali ya Malikiya, bayokaki makambo oyo Jeremi azalaki koyebisa bato nyonso. Azalaki koloba:
And he heard Shephatiah [the] son of Mattan and Gedaliah [the] son of Pashhur and Jucal [the] son of Shelemiah and Pashhur [the] son of Malkijah the words which Jeremiah [was] speaking to all the people saying.
2 « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Moto nyonso oyo akotikala kati na engumba oyo akokufa na mopanga, na nzala makasi to mpe na bokono oyo ebomaka; kasi ye oyo akobima mpo na kokende komikaba epai ya bato ya Babiloni akobika, akokufa te; bomoi na ye ekozala bomengo na ye ya bitumba, mpe akotikala na bomoi. ›
Thus he says Yahweh the [one who] remains in the city this he will die by the sword by famine and by pestilence and the [one who] goes out to the Chaldeans (and he will live *Q(K)*) and it will belong to him life his to plunder and he will live.
3 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Engumba oyo ekokweya na maboko ya basoda ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, oyo akobotola yango. › »
Thus he says Yahweh certainly it will be given the city this in [the] hand of [the] army of [the] king of Babylon and he will capture it.
4 Bakalaka balobaki na mokonzi: — Moto oyo asengeli kokufa! Maloba na ye ezali kolembisa basoda mpe bato oyo batikali kati na engumba oyo; azali koluka bolamu ya bato oyo te, kasi azali nde koluka mabe na bango.
And they said the officials to the king let him be put to death please the man this for since he [is] making drop [the] hands of [the] men of war who remain - in the city this and [the] hands of all the people by speaking to them according to the words these that - the man this not he [is] seeking for welfare for the people this that except for harm.
5 Mokonzi Sedesiasi azongisaki: — Azali na maboko na bino; mokonzi akoki koboya likanisi na bino te!
And he said the king Zedekiah there! he [is] in hand your for not the king he is able you anything.
6 Boye, bakamataki Jeremi mpe babwakaki ye kati na libulu ya Malikiya, mwana mobali ya mokonzi; libulu yango ezalaki kati na lopango ya bakengeli. Bakitisaki Jeremi kati na libulu na nzela ya basinga; libulu ezalaki na mayi te, kaka na potopoto; mpe Jeremi azindaki makasi kati na potopoto yango.
And they took Jeremiah and they threw him into the cistern of - Malkijah [the] son of the king which [was] in [the] courtyard of the guard and they let down Jeremiah with ropes and in the cistern there not [was] water that except mud and he sank Jeremiah in the mud.
7 Ebedi-Meleki, moto ya Kushi, kalaka ya lokumu oyo azalaki kosala kati na ndako ya mokonzi, ayokaki ete babwaki Jeremi kati na libulu. Boye, wana mokonzi avandaki na Ekuke ya Benjame,
And he heard Ebed Melech the Cushite a man a court-official and he [was] in [the] house of the king that they had put Jeremiah into the cistern and the king [was] sitting in [the] gate of Benjamin.
8 Ebedi-Meleki abimaki na ndako ya mokonzi mpe akendeki koloba na mokonzi:
And he went out Ebed Melech from [the] house of the king and he spoke to the king saying.
9 — Mokonzi, nkolo na ngai, kati na nyonso oyo basali mosakoli Jeremi, bato oyo basali mabe penza! Basili kobwaka ye kati na libulu epai wapi akokufa na nzala, mpo ete mapa ezali lisusu te kati na engumba!
O lord my the king they have done evil the men these all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet whom they have thrown into the cistern and he died in it because of famine for there not [is] the food yet in the city.
10 Mokonzi apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya Ebedi-Meleki, moto ya mokili ya Kushi: — Kamata awa mibali tuku misato elongo na yo, mpe bobimisa mosakoli Jeremi wuta na libulu liboso ete akufa.
And he commanded the king Ebed Melech the Cushite saying take in hand your from here thirty men and you will bring up Jeremiah the prophet from the cistern before he will die.
11 Ebedi-Meleki akamataki mibali yango mpe akendeki na ndako ya mokonzi, kati na shambre oyo ezalaki na se ya ebombelo bomengo; azwaki kuna bilamba ya kala mpe oyo epasuka, mpe akitisaki yango na nzela ya basinga epai ya Jeremi kati na libulu.
And he took - Ebed Melech the men in hand his and he went [the] house of the king to under the storehouse and he took from there worn out things of (clothes *Q(K)*) and worn out things of rags and he let down them to Jeremiah into the cistern with ropes.
12 Ebedi-Meleki, moto ya Kushi, alobaki na Jeremi: — Tia bilamba oyo na se ya mapeka na yo, likolo ya basinga oyo mpo na kobatela mapeka na yo. Jeremi asalaki se bongo.
And he said Ebed Melech the Cushite to Jeremiah put please [the] worn out things of the clothes and the rags under [the] joints of hands your from under to [the] ropes and he did Jeremiah thus.
13 Babendaki ye na basinga mpe babimisaki ye na libulu. Mpe Jeremi avandaki kati na lopango ya bakengeli.
And they drew out Jeremiah with ropes and they brought up him from the cistern and he remained Jeremiah in [the] courtyard of the guard.
14 Mokonzi Sedesiasi atindaki ete bamemela ye mosakoli Jeremi mpe bakotisa ye na Ekuke ya misato ya Tempelo ya Yawe. Mokonzi alobaki na Jeremi: — Nazali na likambo moko ya kotuna epai na yo; kobombela ngai eloko moko te!
And he sent the king Zedekiah and he brought Jeremiah the prophet to him to an entrance third which [was] in [the] house of Yahweh and he said the king to Jeremiah [am] about to ask I you a matter may not you hide from me anything.
15 Jeremi alobaki na mokonzi Sedesiasi: — Soki nayebisi yo yango, okoboma ngai te? Ezala napesi yo toli, okoyokela na yo ngai te.
And he said Jeremiah to Zedekiah if I will tell to you ¿ not certainly will you put to death me and if I will counsel you not you will listen to me.
16 Kasi mokonzi Sedesiasi alapaki ndayi na nkuku epai ya Jeremi: — Na Kombo na Yawe oyo apesaka biso pema, nakoboma yo te, mpe nakokaba yo te na maboko ya bato oyo balingi koboma yo!
And he swore the king Zedekiah to Jeremiah in secrecy saying [by] [the] life of Yahweh (*Q(K)*) who he has made for us the life this if I will put to death you and if I will give you in [the] hand of the men these who [are] seeking life your.
17 Bongo Jeremi alobaki na Sedesiasi: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga mpe Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Soki kaka omipesi epai ya bakonzi ya basoda ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, yo mpe libota na yo bokokufa te, mpe engumba oyo ekobebisama na moto te.
And he said Jeremiah to Zedekiah thus he says Yahweh [the] God of hosts [the] God of Israel certainly [if] you will go out to [the] commanders of [the] king of Babylon and you will live self your and the city this not it will be burned with fire and you will live you and household your.
18 Kasi soki oboyi komipesa epai ya bakonzi ya basoda ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, engumba oyo ekokweya na maboko ya bato ya Babiloni mpe bakotumba yango, bongo ezala yo, okobika te na maboko na bango. »
And if not you will go out to [the] commanders of [the] king of Babylon and it will be given the city this in [the] hand of the Chaldeans and they will burn it with fire and you not you will escape from hand their.
19 Mokonzi Sedesiasi alobaki na Jeremi: — Nazali kobanga Bayuda oyo bakei na ngambo ya bato ya Babiloni, mpo ete bato ya Babiloni bakoki kokaba ngai na maboko na bango mpe bakonyokola ngai.
And he said the king Zedekiah to Jeremiah I [am] dreading the Jews who they have fallen to the Chaldeans lest they should give me in hand their and they will deal wantonly with me.
20 Jeremi azongisaki: — Te, bakokaba yo te! Nabondeli yo, tosa Yawe mpe sala makambo oyo nazali koyebisa yo; bongo nyonso ekotambola malamu mpo na yo mpe okobikisa bomoi na yo.
And he said Jeremiah not they will give listen please - to [the] voice of Yahweh to [that] which I [am] speaking to you so it may go well for you so it may live self your.
21 Kasi soki oboyi komipesa epai na bango, tala makambo oyo Yawe atalisi ngai:
And if [are] refusing you to go out this [is] the thing which he has shown me Yahweh.
22 « Bakomema basi nyonso oyo bavandaka kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya Yuda epai ya bakonzi ya basoda ya mokonzi ya Babiloni, mpe basi yango bakoloba: ‹ Baninga na yo ya motema bakosi yo mpe balongi yo. Matambe na yo ezindi na potopoto, baninga na yo bakimi yo! › »
And there! all the women who they are left in [the] house of [the] king of Judah [are] about to be brought out to [the] commanders of [the] king of Babylon and they [will be] saying they misled you and they prevailed to you [the] people of peace your they are sunk in the mire feet your they have turned backwards.
23 Bakomema basi na yo nyonso mpe bana na yo nyonso epai ya bato ya Babiloni; mpe yo moko okobika te na maboko na bango, mokonzi ya Babiloni akokanga yo mpe akobebisa engumba oyo na moto.
And all wives your and children your [people will] bring out to the Chaldeans and you not you will escape from hand their for by [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon you will be captured and the city this it will burn with fire.
24 Sedesiasi alobaki na Jeremi: — Tika ete moto moko te ayeba makambo oyo, mpe okokufa te.
And he said Zedekiah to Jeremiah anyone may not he know in the words these and not you will die.
25 Soki bakalaka bayoki ete tosololi na yo mpe bayei kotuna yo: « Yebisa biso makambo oyo oyebisi mokonzi mpe oyo mokonzi ayebisi yo. Kobombela biso eloko te, soki te, tokoboma yo. »
And if they will hear the officials that I have spoken with you and they will come to you and they will say to you tell! please to us what? did you say to the king may not you hide [it] from us and not we will put to death you and what? did he say to you the king.
26 Loba bango: « Nakomisi libondeli na ngai liboso ya mokonzi mpo ete azongisa ngai na ndako ya Jonatan te, noki te nakokufela kuna. »
And you will say to them [was] making fall I supplication my before the king to not to send back me [the] house of Jonathan to die there.
27 Bakalaka nyonso bayaki epai ya Jeremi mpe batunaki ye mituna; ye mpe ayebisaki bango makambo nyonso, ndenge kaka mokonzi atindaki ye. Boye, lokola bazalaki lisusu na likambo ya koloba na ye te, pamba te moto moko te ayokaki masolo na ye na mokonzi, babendanaki na kimia.
And they came all the officials to Jeremiah and they asked him and he told to them according to all the words these which he had commanded the king and they kept silent from him for not it had been heard the matter.
28 Jeremi atikalaki kati na lopango ya bakengeli kino na mokolo oyo babotolaki engumba Yelusalemi.
And he remained Jeremiah in [the] courtyard of the guard until [the] day when it was captured Jerusalem. And it was just when it was captured Jerusalem.
