< Jeremi 50 >
1 Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na mosakoli Jeremi na tina na Babiloni mpe bato na yango:
The word that the Lord spake, concerning Babel, and cocerning the land of the Caldeans by the ministerie of Ieremiah the Prophet.
2 « Sakola mpe tatola yango kati na bikolo, telemisa bendele! Sala ete bato nyonso bayeba yango, kobomba likambo moko te! Loba: ‹ Bakobotola mokili ya Babiloni! Beli akoyokisama soni! Mariduki akobukana! Bililingi na ye ekosambwa, mpe banzambe na bango ya bikeko ekobukana. ›
Declare among the nations, and publish it, and set vp a standart, proclaime it and conceale it not: say, Babel is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken downe: her idols are confounded, and their images are burst in pieces.
3 Ekolo moko ekowuta na nor mpe ekobundisa Babiloni, ekobebisa yango, bongo moto moko te akovanda lisusu kuna; ezala bato to banyama, nyonso ekokima.
For out of the North there commeth vp a nation against her, which shall make her lande waste, and none shall dwel therein: they shall flee, and depart, both man and beast.
4 Na tango wana, na mikolo wana, » elobi Yawe, « bana ya Isalaele elongo na bato ya Yuda bakokende na kolela mpo na koluka Yawe, Nzambe na bango.
In those daies, and at that time, sayeth the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they, and the children of Iudah together, going, and weeping shall they goe, and seeke the Lord their God.
5 Bakotuna nzela oyo ememaka kino na Siona mpe bakobalola bilongi na bango na ngomba yango; bakolobana bango na bango: ‹ Boya, tika ete tokangama na Yawe na nzela ya boyokani oyo ezali na suka te, boyokani oyo tokoki kobosana te! ›
They shall aske the way to Zion, with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let vs cleaue to the Lord in a perpetuall couenant that shall not be forgotten.
6 Bato na Ngai bazalaki lokola bameme oyo ebungi nzela; babateli na bango babungisaki bango nzela, basalaki ete bayengayenga na bangomba, batambola-tambola na bangomba milayi mpe mikuse mpe babosana lopango na bango ya kopemela.
My people hath beene as lost sheepe: their shepheards haue caused them to goe astray, and haue turned them away to the mountaines: they haue gone from mountaine to hil, and forgotten their resting place.
7 Moto nyonso oyo azalaki komona bango azalaki koboma bango, banguna na bango bazalaki koloba: ‹ Tozali na biso na ngambo te, mpo ete basali masumu liboso ya Yawe oyo azali lokola lopango na bango ya bosembo; liboso ya Yawe, elikya ya batata na bango. ›
Al that found them, haue deuoured them, and their enemies saide, We offende not, because they haue sinned against the Lord, the habitation of iustice, euen the Lord the hope of their fathers.
8 Bobima mbangu na Babiloni, botika mokili ya Babiloni! Bozala lokola bantaba ya mibali oyo ezali kotambola liboso ya etonga.
Flee from the middes of Babel, and depart out of the lande of the Caldeans, and be ye as the hee goates before the flocke.
9 Pamba te nakotelemisa mpe nakoyeisa lisanga ya bikolo ya nguya oyo ekowuta na mokili ya nor mpo na kobundisa Babiloni mpe kobotola yango wuta na nor; makonga na bango ekozala lokola makonga ya basoda ya mpiko, oyo bazangaka koboma te.
For loe, I will raise, and cause to come vp against Babel a multitude of mightie natios from the North countrey, and they shall set themselues in aray against her, whereby shee shall be taken: their arrowes shall be as of a strong man, which is expert, for none shall returne in vaine.
10 Boye, bakobotola bomengo ya Babiloni mpe bato nyonso oyo bakobotola yango bakotonda, » elobi Yawe.
And Caldea shalbe a spoyle: all that spoyle her, shalbe satisfied, sayth the Lord.
11 « Mpo ete bozali kosepela mpe bozali na esengo, bino bato oyo bozali kobebisa libula na Ngai; mpo ete bozali kopumbwa-pumbwa lokola mwana ngombe ya mwasi oyo ezali konika ble mpe kolela lokola bampunda,
Because yee were glad and reioyced in destroying mine heritage, and because ye are growen fatte, as the calues in the grasse, and neied like strong horses,
12 mama na bino akoyoka soni makasi; ye oyo abotaki bino akosambwa. Ekozala ekolo ya suka kati na bikolo, ekozala zelo na zelo, mabele ya kokawuka mpe esobe.
Therefore your mother shall bee sore confounded, and she that bare you, shall be ashamed: beholde, the vttermost of the nations shalbe a desert, a drie land, and a wildernes.
13 Likolo ya kanda ya Yawe, bato bakovanda lisusu na Babiloni te mpo ete ekobebisama nye. Bato nyonso oyo bakoleka na Babiloni bakokamwa mpe bakozala na somo ya komona bapota na yango nyonso.
Because of the wrath of the Lord it shall not be inhabited, but shall be wholy desolate: euery one that goeth by Babel, shall be astonished, and hisse at all her plagues.
14 Bino bato nyonso oyo bobundaka na matolotolo, bomitanda na molongo zingazinga ya Babiloni mpe bobeta yango makonga! Botika ata likonga moko te, pamba te Babiloni asali masumu liboso ya Yawe.
Put your selues in aray against Babel rounde about: all ye that bende the bowe, shoote at her, spare no arrowes: for shee hath sinned against the Lord.
15 Bobetela ye lokito ya bitumba na bangambo nyonso! Ayei komitika ye moko, mpo ete bandako na ye oyo batonga makasi ekweyi, bamir na ye ebukani: ezali na lolenge oyo nde Yawe azongiseli ye mabe na mabe. Bozongisela ye makambo oyo ye asalaki bikolo mosusu.
Crie against her round about: she hath giuen her hand: her foundations are fallen, and her walles are destroyed: for it is the vengeance of the Lord: take vengeance vpon her: as she hath done, doe vnto her.
16 Boboma wuta na mokili ya Babiloni bato oyo basalaka bilanga mpe bato oyo basimbaka mbeli mpo na kobuka mbuma. Likolo ya mopanga ya monyokoli, tika ete moto na moto azonga na mokili na ye, tika ete moto na moto akima na mokili na ye.
Destroy the sower from Babel, and him that handleth the sieth in the time of haruest: because of the sworde of the oppressor they shall turne euery one to his people, and they shall flee euery one to his owne land.
17 Isalaele azali lokola meme oyo ebungi nzela, oyo nkosi ezalaki kolanda: Mokonzi ya Asiri azalaki moto ya liboso oyo apasolaki Isalaele; Nabukodonozori, Mokonzi ya Babiloni, azalaki moto ya suka oyo abukaki ye mikuwa.
Israel is like scattered sheepe: the lions haue dispersed them: first the King of Asshur hath deuoured him, and last this Nebuchad-nezzar King, of Babel hath broken his bones.
18 Yango wana tala makambo oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: ‹ Nakopesa mokonzi ya Babiloni mpe mokili na ye etumbu ndenge napesaki mokonzi ya Asiri.
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Behold, I wil visit ye King of Babel, and his land, as I haue visited the King of Asshur.
19 Kasi nakozongisa Isalaele na lopango na ye; mpe akolia lisusu matiti ya ngomba Karimeli mpe ya Bashani. Nzala na ye ekosila na etuka ya bangomba ya Efrayimi mpe ya Galadi.
And I will bring Israel againe to his habitation: hee shall feede on Carmel and Bashan, and his soule shall be satisfied vpon the mount Ephraim and Gilead.
20 Na tango wana, na mikolo wana, › elobi Yawe, ‹ bakoluka ngambo nini Isalaele amemi kasi bakomona yango te, masumu nini Yuda asali kasi bakomona yango te; pamba te nakolimbisa batikali oyo nabikisi.
In those daies, and at that time, sayeth the Lord, the iniquitie of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none: and the sinnes of Iudah, and they shall not be founde: for I will be mercifull vnto them, whome I reserue.
21 Bobundisa mokili ya Meratayimi mpe bavandi ya Pekodi; bolanda bango, boboma mpe bobebisa bango nye, › elobi Yawe. ‹ Bosala makambo nyonso oyo natindi bino.
Goe vp against the lande of the rebelles, euen against it, and against the inhabitantes of Pekod: destroy, and lay it waste after them, saieth the Lord, and doe according to all that I haue commanded thee.
22 Makelele ya bitumba ezali kati na mokili, lokito ya kobebisama monene!
A crie of battell is in the land, and of great destruction.
23 Ndenge nini marto oyo ezalaki kobeta mokili mobimba ebukani mpe epanzani? Ndenge nini penza Babiloni ebebisami kati na bikolo?
Howe is the hammer of the whole world destroied, and broken! howe is Babel become desolate among the nations!
24 Oh Babiloni, nasili kotiela yo motambo, mpe ekangi yo liboso ete oyeba yango. Omonanaki mpe okangamaki mpo ete otelemelaki Yawe.
I haue snared thee, and thou art taken, O Babel, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striuen against the Lord.
25 Yawe afungolaki bibundeli na Ye nyonso mpe abimisaki kati na yango bibundeli ya kanda na Ye; pamba te yango nde mosala oyo Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, asili kosala na mokili ya bato ya Babiloni.
The Lord hath opened his treasure, and hath brought foorth the weapons of his wrath: for this is the woorke of the Lord God of hostes in the lande of the Caldeans.
26 Bobimela wuta na bisika nyonso mpo na kobundisa ye, bobuka bibombelo na ye, bokangisa bomengo ya bitumba ndenge bakangisaka maboke ya ble, bobebisa yango nyonso mpe botika ata eloko moko te.
Come against her from the vtmost border: open her store houses: treade on her as on sheaues, and destroy her vtterly: let nothing of her be left.
27 Boboma bana ngombe mibali na ye nyonso; tika ete ekende na esika oyo babomelaka banyama! Mawa na bango mpo ete mokolo na bango ekoki, tango mpo na bango ya kozwa etumbu.
Destroy all her bullockes: let them goe downe to the slaughter. Wo vnto them, for their day is come, and the time of their visitation.
28 Boyoka! Tala bango bazali kokima mpe babiki wuta na mokili ya Babiloni mpo na koyebisa kati na Siona ndenge nini Yawe, Nzambe na biso, azongisi mabe na mabe; ndenge nini azongisi mabe na mabe likolo na Tempelo na Ye.
The voyce of them that flee, and escape out of the lande of Babel to declare in Zion the vengeance of the Lord our God, and the vengeance of his Temple.
29 Bosangisa bato nyonso oyo babundaka na matolotolo mpo na kotelemela Babiloni; tika ete bato nyonso oyo babundaka na makonga bazingela Babiloni mobimba, basala ete ata moto moko te akima, bafuta yango ndenge ezalaki misala na yango mpe bazongisela yango makambo oyo esalaki bikolo mosusu; pamba te ebetaki tembe na Yawe, Mosantu ya Isalaele.
Call vp the archers against Babel: al ye that bend the bow, besiege it rounde about: let none thereof escape: recompence her according to her worke, and according to all that she hath done, doe vnto her: for she hath bene proud against the Lord, euen against the holy one of Israel.
30 Yango wana, na mokolo wana, bilenge mibali na yango bakokweya na babalabala, basoda na yango nyonso ya mpiko bakokanga minoko, › elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
Therefore shall her yong men fall in the streetes, and al her men of warre shalbe destroied in that day, sayeth the Lord.
31 ‹ Tala, nazali na kanda na yo, yo mboka ya lolendo, › elobi Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga; ‹ pamba te mokolo na yo ekoki, tango na yo ya kozwa etumbu.
Beholde, I come vnto thee, O proude man, saith the Lord God of hostes: for thy day is come, euen the time that I will visite thee.
32 Ekolo ya lolendo ekobeta libaku mpe ekokweya, mpe moto moko te akoya kosunga yango; nakopelisa moto kati na bingumba na yango, mpe moto yango ekozikisa bato nyonso oyo bazingeli yango. ›
And the proude shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him vp: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall deuoure all round about him.
33 Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: ‹ Bazali konyokola bana ya Isalaele mpe bato ya Yuda; bato nyonso oyo bakangaki bango mpe bamemaki bango na bowumbu baboyi kotika bango.
Thus saieth the Lord of hosts, The children of Israel, and the children of Iudah were oppressed together: and all that tooke them captiues, held them, and would not let them goe.
34 Nzokande, Mosikoli na bango azali na makasi, Kombo na Ye: Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga; akokotela bango na molende mpo ete amema kimia na mokili na bango mpe mobulu epai ya bavandi ya Babiloni.
But their strong redeemer, whose Name is the Lord of hostes, he shall maintaine their cause, that he may giue rest to the lande, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babel.
35 Mopanga, boma bato ya Babiloni; boma bavandi ya Babiloni, boma bakambi mpe bato na yango ya bwanya, › elobi Yawe!
A sworde is vpon the Caldeans, sayeth the Lord, and vpon the inhabitants of Babel, and vpon her princes, and vpon her wise men.
36 ‹ Mopanga, boma basakoli na yango ya lokuta; tika ete bakoma bato ya maboma! Mopanga, boma basoda na yango ya mpiko; tika ete bakoma na somo!
A sworde is vpon the soothsaiers, and they shall dote: a sword is vpon her strong men, and they shalbe afraide.
37 Mopanga, boma bampunda mpe bashar na yango, bapaya nyonso oyo bazali sima na yango mpo ete bakoma lokola basi! Mopanga, bebisa bomengo na yango mpo ete ekoma bomengo ya bitumba!
A sworde is vpon their horses and vpon their charets, and vpon all the multitude that are in the middes of her, and they shall be like women: a sworde is vpon her treasures, and they shall be spoyled.
38 Bokawuki, kweyela mayi na yango mpo ete ekawuka; pamba te ezali mokili ya banzambe ya bikeko, bikeko oyo epesaka bato somo!
A drought is vpon her waters, and they shall be dried vp: for it is the lande of grauen images, and they dote vpon their idoles.
39 Bikelamu ya esobe mpe bambwa ya zamba ekokoma kovanda kuna; maligbanga mpe ekokoma kovanda kuna. Bato bakovanda lisusu kuna te to moto moko te akotikala kuna mpo na libela.
Therefore the Ziims with the Iims shall dwel there, and the ostriches shall dwel therein: for it shall be no more inhabited, neither shall it be inhabited from generation vnto generation.
40 Ndenge Nzambe abebisaki Sodome mpe Gomore elongo na bingumba na yango ya zingazinga, › » elobi Yawe, « moto moko te akovanda lisusu kuna, moto moko te akowumela kati na yango.
As God destroied Sodom and Gomorah with the places thereof neere about, sayeth the Lord: so shall no man dwell theere, neither shall the sonne of man remaine therein.
41 Tala, mampinga moko ya basoda ezali koya wuta na nor, ekolo moko monene mpe bakonzi ebele bazali komibongisa mpo na bitumba wuta na basuka ya mabele.
Beholde, a people shall come from the North, and a great nation, and many Kings shall be raised vp from the coastes of the earth.
42 Basimbi matolotolo mpe makonga, bazali bato na kanza mpe bazanga mawa, bazali koganga lokola makelele ya ebale monene, bamati likolo ya bampunda, batandami na milongo lokola basoda mpo na kobundisa yo Babiloni, mboka kitoko!
They shall holde the bowe and the buckeler: they are cruell and vnmercifull: their voyce shall roare like the sea, and they shall ride vpon horses, and be put in aray like men to the battell against thee, O daughter of Babel.
43 Tango mokonzi ya Babiloni ayokaki sango na tina bango, alembaki nzoto, somo makasi ekangaki ye mpe akomaki na pasi lokola mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota.
The King of Babel hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: sorow came vpon him, euen sorowe as of a woman in trauaile.
44 Ndenge nkosi eyaka wuta na bazamba ya Yordani mpo na kokende na mapango epai wapi babokolaka bibwele, ndenge wana mpe nakobengana Babiloni na mokili na yango na mbala moko; Ngai moko nakopona moto oyo akokoma mokonzi ya Babiloni. Nani akokani na Ngai? Nani akoki kobeta tembe na Ngai? Mobateli bibwele nani akoki kotelema liboso na Ngai? »
Beholde, hee shall come vp like a lyon from the swelling of Iorden vnto the strong habitation: for I will make Israel to rest, and I will make them to haste away from her: and who is a chosen man that I may appoynt against her? for who is like me, and who will appoynt me the time? and who is the shepheard that will stande before me?
45 Yango wana, boyoka mabongisi oyo Yawe asili kosala mpo na Babiloni, mokano oyo asili kozwa mpo na kotelemela mokili ya bato ya Babiloni: Bakobengana bango na lopango lokola bana mike ya etonga, akobebisa etando na bango.
Therefore heare the counsell of the Lord that hee hath deuised against Babel, and his purpose that hee hath conceiued against the lande of the Caldeans: surely the least of the flocke shall drawe them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.
46 Na lokito ya kokweya ya mokili ya Babiloni, mabele ekoningana; makelele na yango ekoyokana kino na bikolo mosusu.
At the noyse of the winning of Babel the earth is moued, and the crye is heard among the nations.
