Yobo 1
1 Moto moko azalaki kovanda na mokili ya Utsi, kombo na ye ezalaki « Yobo; » azalaki kotambola na boyengebene mpe na bosembo, azalaki kotosa Nzambe mpe kokima mabe.
Naʻe ai ʻae tangata ʻi he fonua ko Usa, naʻe hingoa ko Siope; pea naʻe haohaoa mo angatonu ʻae tangata ko ia, pea ne manavahē ia ki he ʻOtua, pea afe mei he kovi.
2 Azalaki na bana mibali sambo, bana basi misato;
Pea naʻe fanauʻi kiate ia ʻae foha ʻe toko fitu mo e ʻofefine ʻe toko tolu.
3 mpe azalaki na etonga ya bameme nkoto sambo, bashamo nkoto misato, bangombe nkoto moko, ba-ane nkama mitano, mpe azalaki na basali ebele penza. Alekaki bato nyonso ya Este na lokumu.
Ko ʻene koloa ko e sipi ʻe fitu afe, mo e kāmeli ʻe tolu afe, mo e taulua fanga pulu ʻe nimangeau, mo e ʻasi fefine ʻe nimangeau, mo e fuʻu ʻapi tokolahi ʻaupito; pea naʻe lahi taha ai ʻae tangata ni ʻi he kakai kotoa pē ʻoe potu hahake.
4 Bana na ye ya mibali bazalaki na ezaleli ya kosangana kati na ndako ya moko kati na bango, mpo na kosala feti; mpe, na feti yango, bazalaki kobengisa bandeko na bango ya basi mpo na kolia mpe komela elongo na bango.
Pea naʻe faʻa fai ʻe hono ngaahi foha ʻae kātoanga kai ʻi honau ngaahi fale, ʻo taki taha ʻi hono ʻaho; pea naʻe tala ki honau tuofefine ʻe toko tolu ke kai mo inu mo kinautolu.
5 Mpe soki mikolo ya feti esili, Yobo azalaki kobengisa bana na ye mpo na kopetola bango. Na tongo-tongo, azalaki kobonza mbeka ya kotumba mpo na moko na moko kati na bango; pamba te azalaki komilobela: « Tango mosusu bana na ngai basali masumu mpe balakeli Nzambe mabe kati na mitema na bango. » Yobo azalaki kosala bongo tango nyonso.
Pea kuo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻenau fai kātoanga, naʻe fekau ʻe Siope ke fakatapui ʻakinautolu, pea ne tuʻu hengihengi hake, ʻo ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu ʻo fakatatau ki honau tokolahi kotoa pē: he naʻe pehē ʻe Siope, naʻa kuo angahala ʻa hoku ngaahi foha, ʻo lea kovi ki he ʻOtua ʻi honau loto. Naʻe fai pehē pe ʻa Siope ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē.
6 Mokolo moko, ba-anjelu ya Nzambe bayaki komilakisa liboso ya Yawe. Satana mpe ayaki elongo na bango.
Ka naʻe ai ʻae ʻaho naʻe fakataha ai ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe ʻOtua ke fakahā ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe haʻu ai foki ʻa Sētane mo kinautolu.
7 Yawe atunaki Satana: — Owuti wapi? Satana azongiselaki Yawe: — Nawuti kotambola mpe koyengayenga na mokili.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sētane, “Ko hoʻo haʻu mei fē?” Pea tali ʻe Sētane kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Mei heʻeku fakatakamilo ʻa māmani mo ʻeku feʻaluʻaki fano ʻi ai.”
8 Yawe alobaki na Satana: — Boni, omoni Yobo, mosali na Ngai? Ezali na moto moko te oyo azali lokola ye, kati na mokili: azali moyengebene mpe moto ya sembo, atosaka Nzambe mpe akimaka mabe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sētane, “Kuo ke tokangaʻi ʻa ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Siope, he ʻoku ʻikai hano tatau ʻi māmani, ko e tangata haohaoa mo angatonu, ʻoku manavahē ia ki he ʻOtua, pea afe mei he kovi?”
9 Satana azongiselaki Yawe: — Okanisi ete ezali na pamba nde Yobo atosaka Nzambe?
Pea naʻe tali ai ʻe Sētane kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “He kuo manavahē ʻa Siope ki he ʻOtua taʻehatotongi?
10 Boni, otonga mir te zingazinga na ye mpo na kobatela ye, ndako na ye mpe biloko na ye nyonso? Opambola misala ya maboko na ye, mpe bibwele na ye epanzana na mokili mobimba.
ʻIkai kuo ke takatakai ʻaki ia ʻae ʻā, mo hono fale, mo ʻene meʻa kotoa pē mei he potu kotoa pē? Pea kuo ke fakamonūʻiaʻi ʻae ngāue ʻa hono nima, pea ʻoku tupulekina ʻene koloa ʻi he fonua.
11 Kasi sik’oyo, sembola kaka loboko na Yo mpe beta biloko na ye nyonso; okomona penza soki akolakela Yo mabe te na miso na Yo.
Kae mafao atu eni ho nima, ʻo taaʻi ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻaʻana, pea te ne lauʻikoviʻi koe ʻi ho fofonga.”
12 Yawe alobaki na Satana: — Malamu! Biloko na ye nyonso ezali kati na maboko na yo; kasi, kokitisa loboko na yo te na bomoi na ye! Boye, Satana alongwaki liboso ya Yawe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sētane, “Vakai, ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻaʻana; kaeʻoua naʻa ke hilifaki ho nima kiate ia.” Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Sētane mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
13 Mokolo moko, tango bana mibali mpe bana basi ya Yobo bazalaki kosala feti mpe komela masanga ya vino kati na ndako ya ndeko mobali na bango ya liboso,
Pea naʻe ai ʻae ʻaho naʻe kai mo inu uaine ʻe hono ngaahi foha mo hono ngaahi ʻofefine ʻi he fale ʻo honau taʻokete lahi:
14 ntoma moko ayaki epai na Yobo mpo na koyebisa ye: « Bangombe ezalaki kobalola mabele ya bilanga, mpe ba-ane ezalaki kolia matiti pembeni wana;
Pea naʻe haʻu ai ʻae talafekau kia Siope, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻe fai ʻae keli ʻe he fanga pulu, pea kai ʻae fanga ʻasi ʻi he potu ofi ki ai:
15 bongo bato ya Saba bayei kokweyela yango mpe bakei na yango. Babomi basali na mopanga, mpe ngai moko kaka moto nabiki; yango wana nayei kopesa yo sango! »
Pea naʻe ʻoho mai ʻae kakai Sipa ʻo ʻave ʻakinautolu; pea kuo nau tāmateʻi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā; pea ko au pe kuo hao ke tala ia kiate koe.”
16 Wana azalaki nanu koloba, ntoma mosusu ayaki mpe alobaki: « Moto ya Nzambe ekweyi longwa na likolo mpe ezikisi bibwele mpe basali! Ngai moko kaka moto nabiki; yango wana nayei kopesa yo sango! »
Pea lolotonga ʻene lea mo ʻene haʻu foki ʻae tokotaha, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo tō mai mei he langi ʻae afi ʻae ʻOtua, pea kuo vela ai ʻae fanga sipi, mo e kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu; pea ko au pe kuo hao ke tala ia kiate koe.”
17 Wana azalaki nanu koloba, ntoma mosusu ayaki mpe alobaki: « Bato ya Chalide basalaki masanga misato, bakweyeli bashamo na yo mpe bakei na yango. Babomi basali na mopanga, mpe ngai moko kaka moto nabiki; yango wana nayei kopesa yo sango! »
Pea lolotonga ʻene lea mo ʻene haʻu foki ʻae tokotaha, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻe vahe tolu ʻae kongakau Kalitia, ʻonau ʻoho mai ki he fanga kāmeli, pea ʻave ia, pea kuo nau tāmateʻi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā; pea ko au pe kuo hao ke tala ia kiate koe.”
18 Wana azalaki nanu koloba, ntoma mosusu ayaki mpe alobaki: « Wana bana na yo ya mibali mpe ya basi bazalaki kosala feti mpe komela masanga ya vino kati na ndako ya ndeko mobali na bango ya liboso,
Pea lolotonga ʻene lea mo ʻene haʻu foki ʻae tokotaha, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻe kai mo inu uaine ʻa ho ngaahi foha mo ho ngaahi ʻofefine ʻi he fale ʻo honau taʻokete lahi:
19 mopepe moko ya makasi ewutaki na ngambo mosusu ya esobe mpe eyaki kobeta basonge minei ya ndako. Ndako ekweyeli bango, mpe bango nyonso basili kokufa. Ngai moko kaka moto nabiki; yango wana nayei kopesa yo sango! »
Pea ʻiloange, kuo hā mai ʻae fuʻu matangi lahi mei he toafa, ʻo taaʻi hono tuliki ʻe fā ʻoe fale, pea naʻe holo ia ki he kau talavou, pea kuo nau mate; pea ko au pe kuo hao ke tala ia kiate koe.”
20 Yobo atelemaki, apasolaki kazaka na ye, akokolaki suki ya moto na ye, akweyaki na mabele mpe afukamaki.
Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ʻa Siope, ʻo ne haehae hono pulupulu, ʻo fakatekefua ia, pea fakafoʻohifo ki he kelekele, ʻo hū.
21 Alobaki: « Nabimaki bolumbu, na libumu ya mama na ngai, mpe nakozonga bolumbu. Yawe apesaki, mpe Yawe asili kozwa; tika ete Kombo na Ye ekumisama! »
ʻO ne pehē, “Naʻaku haʻu telefua pe mei he manāva ʻo ʻeku faʻē, pea te u toe ʻalu telefua atu pe: naʻe foaki ʻe Sihova, pea kuo toʻo atu ʻe Sihova; fakafetaʻi pe ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.”
22 Na makambo wana nyonso, Yobo atikalaki kosala lisumu te mpe atangaki pasi yango na moto ya Nzambe te.
ʻI he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē naʻe ʻikai angahala ʻa Siope, pe tuku ha kovi ki he ʻOtua.
