Jeremi 47
1 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na mosakoli Jeremi na tina na bato ya Filisitia liboso ete Faraon abundisa Gaza:
The wordes of the Lord that came to Ieremiah the Prophet, against the Philistims, before that Pharaoh smote Azzah.
2 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Tala ndenge nini mayi ezali kotomboka na nor, etondi lokola ebale oyo etondi mayi; ekozindisa mokili mpe biloko nyonso kati na yango, bingumba mpe bavandi na yango nyonso. Bato bakoganga, bavandi nyonso ya mokili bakolela
Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, waters rise vp out of the North, and shalbe as a swelling flood, and shall ouerflowe the land, and all that is therein, and the cities with them that dwell therein: then the men shall crie, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howle,
3 tango bakoyoka makelele ya bampunda koleka na lombangu, lokito ya bashar ya banguna mpe makelele ya bapine na yango. Batata bakozala lisusu na tango te ya kosunga bana na bango mpo ete maboko na bango ekolemba.
At the noise and stamping of ye hoofes of his strong horses, at the noise of his charets, and at the rumbling of his wheeles: ye fathers shall not looke backe to their children, for feeblenes of handes,
4 Pamba te mokolo ekoki mpo na kobebisa bato nyonso ya Filisitia mpe kosilisa koboma batikali nyonso oyo bakoluka kosunga bingumba Tiri mpe Sidoni. Yawe akomi pene ya kobebisa bato ya Filisitia, batikali ya esanga ya Kafitori.
Because of the day that commeth to destroy all the Philistims, and to destroy Tyrus, and Zidon, and all the rest that take their part: for the Lord will destroy the Philistims, the remnant of the yle of Caphtor.
5 Bakokokola suki ya moto ya Gaza lokola elembo ya matanga, Ashikeloni ekokanga monoko! Oh bino batikali kati na etando oyo ya lubwaku, kino tango nini bokotika komizokisa?
Baldenes is come vpon Azzah: Ashkelon is cut vp with the rest of their valleys. Howe long wilt thou thy selfe?
6 Bozali koganga: ‹ Ah mopanga ya Yawe, okopema tango nini? Zonga na ebombelo na yo, tika koboma mpe zala kimia! ›
O thou sword of the Lord, how long will it be or thou cease! turne againe into thy scaberd, rest and be still.
7 Kasi ndenge nini ezala kimia tango Yawe apesi yango mitindo ya kobundisa Ashikeloni mpe mikili oyo ezali pembeni ya ebale monene? »
Howe can it cease, seeing the Lord hath giuen it a charge against Ashkelon, and against the sea banke? euen there hath he appointed it.
