< Jeremi 48 >
1 Na tina ya Moabi: Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Mawa na engumba Nebo, pamba te ekobebisama! Kiriatayimi ekoyokisama soni mpe bakobotola yango, ndako makasi ekoyokisama soni mpe ekobukana.
Concerning Moab. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Woe unto Nebo! for it is spoiled; Kirjathaim is put to shame, it is taken; Misgab is put to shame and dismayed.
2 Moabi ekozala lisusu na lokumu te, bato bakosalela yango likita kati na Eshiboni mpo na kokweyisa yango: ‹ Boya, tokweyisa ekolo oyo! › Yo mpe, engumba Madimeni, okokanga monoko; mopanga ekolanda yo.
Moab's praise is no more; in Heshbon they have devised evil against her: Come, and let us cut her off from [being] a nation. Thou also, O Madmen, shalt be cut down; the sword shall pursue thee.
3 Yoka makelele oyo ezali kobima kuna na Oronayimi: ezali lokito ya bitumba mpe ya kobebisama!
A voice of crying from Horonaim; wasting and great destruction!
4 Moabi ebebisami makasi penza mpe bana na yango bazali kolela.
Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
5 Bazali komata na kolela, nzela-nzela mpo na kokende na Luyiti; mpe tango bazali kokita na Oronayimi, koganga ya mawa ezali koyokana mpo ete Moabi esili kobebisama.
For by the ascent of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in the descent of Horonaim is heard the anguish of the cry of destruction.
6 Bokima! Bopota mbangu mpo na kobikisa bomoi na bino; bokoma lokola nzete ya kokawuka kati na esobe!
Flee, save your lives, and be like a shrub in the wilderness.
7 Lokola bozali kotia mitema na misala na bino mpe na bomengo na bino, bino mpe bokokende na bowumbu; boye Kemoshi mpe akokende na bowumbu elongo na Banganga-Nzambe mpe bakambi na ye.
For because thou hast confided in thy works and in thy treasures, thou also shalt be taken, and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
8 Mobebisi akoya koboma bingumba nyonso mpe ata engumba moko te ekobika; lubwaku ekobebisama, mpe etando ya likolo ya bangomba ekobebisama, pamba te Yawe alobi.
And the waster shall come upon every city, that not a city shall escape; and the valley shall perish, and the plateau shall be destroyed: as Jehovah hath said.
9 Bobongisa kunda mpo na Moabi mpo ete ekobebisama solo; bingumba na yango ekotikala pamba, mpe bato bakovanda lisusu kuna te.
Give wings unto Moab, that she may flee and get away; and the cities thereof shall become a desolation, without inhabitant.
10 Tika ete moto oyo asalelaka Yawe na kozanga komipesa alakelama mabe! Tika ete moto oyo apelisaka mopanga na ye mpo ete etangisa makila alakelama mabe!
Cursed be he that doeth the work of Jehovah negligently, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood!
11 Moabi ezalaki na kimia wuta bolenge na yango lokola masanga ya vino oyo baningisi te, oyo babongoli na mbeki mosusu te, mpo ete etikala nanu kokende na bowumbu te. Boye, elengi na yango ebongwana te mpe solo na yango etikala kaka ndenge ya kala.
Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and hath settled on his lees; he hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste hath remained in him, and his scent is not changed.
12 Kasi na mikolo ekoya, » elobi Yawe, « nakotindela Moabi bato oyo bakobongola yango lokola masanga ya vino na mbeki mosusu: bakosopa yango, bakosilisa yango na mbeki mpe bakobuka mbeki na yango.
Therefore behold, days come, saith Jehovah, that I will send unto him pourers that shall pour him off, and shall empty his vessels, and break in pieces his flagons.
13 Boye, Moabi ekoyoka soni likolo ya Kemoshi ndenge bato ya Isalaele bayokaki soni tango batiaki mitema na Beteli.
And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel, their confidence.
14 Ndenge nini bokoki koloba: ‹ Tozali basoda ya mpiko, bato ya makasi, bilombe ya bitumba? ›
How do ye say, We are mighty, and men of valour for the war?
15 Mokili ya Moabi ekobebisama, mpe bakobotola bingumba na yango na makasi; bilenge mibali oyo Moabi etielaka motema bakokufa na mopanga, » elobi Mokonzi oyo Kombo na Ye ezali Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
Moab is laid waste, and his cities are gone up [in smoke], and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is Jehovah of hosts.
16 « Kobebisama ya Moabi ezali na nzela, pasi na yango ekoya na lombangu penza.
The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.
17 Bino bazalani nyonso ya Moabi, bosalela ye matanga; bino bato oyo boyebi sango ya lokumu na ye, boloba: ‹ Ah, tala ndenge lingenda ya nguya, lingenda ya bokonzi ya nkembo, ebukani! ›
All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod!
18 Oh bato ya elenge mwasi Diboni, botika nkembo na bino mpe bovanda na esobe; pamba te moto oyo akoya kobundisa Moabi akoya mpe kobundisa bino mpe kobebisa bingumba na bino oyo batonga makasi!
Come down from [thy] glory and sit in the drought, O inhabitress, daughter of Dibon; the spoiler of Moab is come up against thee, thy strongholds hath he destroyed.
19 Bino bavandi ya Aroeri, botelema na nzela mpe botala malamu, botuna mobali oyo azali kokima mpe mwasi oyo asili kobikisa bomoi na ye soki makambo nini esili kosalema!
Stand by the way, and watch, inhabitress of Aroer; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth; say, What is done?
20 Moabi ezali na soni mpo ete esili kokweya. Bolela mpe boganga, bobelela na Arinoni ete mokili ya Moabi ebebisami!
Moab is put to shame; for he is broken down: howl and cry; tell it in Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.
21 Kosambisama ekweyi na mokili ya etando ya likolo ya bangomba: na Oloni, na Yakatsi mpe na Mefati,
And judgment is come upon the country of the plateau; upon Holon, and upon Jahzah, and upon Mephaath;
22 na Diboni, na Nebo mpe na Beti-Diblatayimi,
and upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Beth-diblathaim;
23 na Kiriatayimi, na Beti-Gamuli mpe na Beti-Meoni,
and upon Kirjathaim, and upon Beth-gamul, and upon Beth-meon;
24 na Kerioti mpe na Botsira, na bingumba nyonso ya Moabi, ezala oyo ezali mosika to oyo ezali pene.
and upon Kerijoth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far and near.
25 Liseke ya Moabi ebukani mpe loboko na ye ekatani, » elobi Yawe.
The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith Jehovah.
26 « Bolangwisa ye masanga, pamba te abetaki tembe na Yawe! Tala ye Moabi ndenge azali kobaluka kati na bisanza na ye! Tika ete, ye mpe, akoma eloko ya maseki!
Make him drunken, for he magnified himself against Jehovah; and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
27 Boni, Isalaele azalaki eloko ya maseki te na miso na bino? Bokangaki ye kati na miyibi mpo ete bokoma koseka ye tango nyonso bokolobela kombo na ye?
For was not Israel a derision unto thee? Was he found among thieves, that as oft as thou didst speak of him, thou didst shake the head?
28 Bino bavandi ya Moabi, bosundola bingumba na bino mpe bokende kovanda kati na mabanga! Bozala lokola ebenga oyo etongaka zala na yango kati na mabanga.
Leave the cities, and dwell in the rocks, ye inhabitants of Moab, and be like the dove, that maketh her nest in the sides of the cave's mouth.
29 Toyokaki sango ya lolendo ya Moabi, lolendo oyo eleka penza ndelo! Tala ndenge amatisaka mapeka! Atondi na lofundu, azali na monoko makasi, mpe motema na ye emikitisaka te.
We have heard of the arrogance of Moab, — [he is] very proud; — his loftiness, and his arrogance, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart.
30 Nayebi ete monoko makasi na ye ezali kaka pamba, » elobi Yawe, « mpe lolendo na ye esalaka eloko moko te.
I know his wrath, saith Jehovah; his pratings are vain: they do not as [they say].
31 Yango wana nazali kolela mpo na Moabi, nazali kolela mpo na Moabi nyonso; nazali kosala matanga mpo na bato ya Kiri-Eresheti.
Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab: for the men of Kir-heres shall there be moaning.
32 Oh elanga ya vino ya Sibima, nazali kolela mpo na yo ndenge engumba Yaezeri ezali kolela! Bitape na yo epanzani kino koleka mayi monene, ekomi kino na mayi monene Yaezeri. Mobebisi akweyeli mbuma ya bilanga na yo mpe mbuma ya vino na yo.
O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with more than the weeping of Jaazer: thy shoots passed over the sea, they reached to the sea of Jaazer. The spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.
33 Esengo mpe kosepela esili kolimwa na bilanga mpe na bazamba ya Moabi; nakawusi vino kati na bikamolelo na bango, mpe moto oyo akokamola yango na esengo azali te. Atako bato bazali koganga kasi ezali makelele ya esengo te.
And joy and gladness is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: they shall no more tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting.
34 Makelele mpe koganga ezali komata wuta na Eshiboni kino na Eleale mpe Yakatsi, wuta na Tsoari kino koleka Oronayimi mpe Egilati-Shelishiya; pamba te, ezala mayi ya Nimirimi esili kokawuka.
Because of the cry from Heshbon, unto Elaleh, unto Jahaz have they uttered their voice, from Zoar unto Horonaim, [unto] Eglath-shelishijah: for even the waters of Nimrim shall become desolations.
35 Nakoboma bato nyonso oyo bakendaka na bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba mpe batumbaka malasi ya ansa lokola mbeka epai ya banzambe na bango, kati na mokili ya Moabi, » elobi Yawe.
And I will cause to cease in Moab, saith Jehovah, him that offereth in the high place, and him that burneth incense to his gods.
36 « Mpe motema na Ngai ezali kolela Moabi ndenge flite ebetaka, ezali kolela lokola flite mpo na bato ya Kiri-Eresheti. Bomengo na bango nyonso esili kobunga.
Therefore my heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and my heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kir-heres; because the abundance that he hath gotten is perished.
37 Bakokoli suki ya mito ya bato nyonso, bakati moto moko na moko mandefu mpe bazokisi moto moko na moko na loboko.
For every head is bald, and every beard clipped; upon all the hands are cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth.
38 Na likolo ya bandako nyonso ya Moabi mpe na bisika nyonso oyo bato balekelaka, ezali na likambo mosusu te, kaka ebembe; pamba te nabebisi Moabi lokola eloko oyo bato balingaka te, » elobi Yawe.
It is wholly lamentation upon all the housetops of Moab, and in the public places thereof; for I have broken Moab, like a vessel wherein is no pleasure, saith Jehovah.
39 « Tala ndenge nini apanzani, tala ndenge nini bazali kolela! Ndenge nini Moabi apesi mokongo na soni! Moabi akomi eloko ya kotiola, eloko ya koyoka na miso ya bato nyonso oyo bazingeli ye. »
They howl, How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! And Moab shall be a derision and a terror to all that are round about him.
40 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Tala ndenge nini mpongo ezali kokita na elulu mpe etandi mapapu na yango likolo ya Moabi.
For thus saith Jehovah: Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread forth his wings over Moab.
41 Bakobotola Kerioti mpe bandako na yango oyo batonga makasi. Na mokolo wana, mitema ya basoda ya mpiko ya Moabi ekokoma lokola motema ya mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota.
Kerijoth is taken, and the strongholds are seized, and at that day the heart of the mighty men of Moab shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42 Mokili ya Moabi ekobebisama mpe ekotikala lisusu ekolo te; pamba te ebetaki tembe na Yawe.
And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against Jehovah.
43 Somo, libulu mpe motambo ezali kozela bino bato ya Moabi, » elobi Yawe.
Fear, and the pit, and the snare shall be upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith Jehovah.
44 « Moto nyonso oyo akokima somo akokweya na libulu, mpe moto nyonso oyo akobima na libulu akokangama na motambo, pamba te nakoyeisa mobu ya etumbu na mokili ya Moabi, » elobi Yawe.
He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon her, upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith Jehovah.
45 « Bato oyo bazali kokima bakozanga lisungi na elili ya engumba ya Eshiboni, pamba te moto moko ewuti na Eshiboni, moto ebimi na ndako ya mokonzi Sikoni, etumbi bandako batonga makasi ya Moabi mpe mito ya bato ya lolendo.
They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon powerless; for a fire hath come forth from Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and hath consumed the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the sons of tumult.
46 Oh Moabi, mawa na yo! Bato ya Kemoshi babebisami, bana na yo ya mibali bakangami na bowumbu, mpe bana na yo ya basi bakokende na bowumbu!
Woe to thee, Moab! The people of Chemosh is undone; for thy sons are taken away in captivity, and thy daughters are captives.
47 Nzokande, na mikolo ekoya, nakozongisa lokumu ya Moabi, » elobi Yawe. Kosambisama ya Moabi esuki awa.
But I will turn the captivity of Moab at the end of the days, saith Jehovah. Thus far is the judgement of Moab.
