Bileli 2
1 Tala ndenge nini Nkolo azipi Siona, mboka kitoko, na lipata ya kanda na Ye: akweyisi lokumu ya Isalaele, wuta na likolo kino na se; na mokolo ya kanda na Ye, abosanaki enyatelo makolo na Ye!
ALEPH. O how the Lord has covered the daughter of Zion with gloom in his fury! O how he has thrown down from heaven to earth the famous one of Israel, and he has not remembered his footstool in the day of his fury.
2 Na kozanga mawa, Nkolo abebisi bandako nyonso ya Jakobi; na kanda na Ye, akweyisi bandako batonga makasi ya Yuda, mwasi kitoko, mpe asambwisi bokonzi mpe bakambi na yango.
BETH. The Lord has cast down, and he has not been lenient, with all the beauties of Jacob. In his fury, he has destroyed the fortifications of the virgin of Judah, and he has thrown them down to the ground. He has polluted the kingdom and its leaders.
3 Na kanda makasi na Ye, abukaki Isalaele maseke nyonso, alongolaki loboko na Ye ya mobali na likolo na yango tango monguna na bango azalaki kopusana; apelisaki moto kati na mokili ya Jakobi lokola moto makasi oyo etumbaka biloko nyonso na bangambo na yango nyonso.
GHIMEL. In the anger of his fury, he has broken the entire horn of Israel. He has drawn back his right hand before the face of the enemy. And he has kindled within Jacob a flaming fire, devouring all around.
4 Lokola moyini, abendi tolotolo na Ye; lokola monguna, asemboli loboko na Ye mpe abomi nyonso oyo ezalaki kosepelisa miso; mpe asopi kanda makasi na Ye lokola moto na likolo ya bandako ya kapo ya Siona, mboka kitoko.
DALETH. He has bent his bow like an enemy. He has fixed his right hand like an adversary. And he has cut down all that was beautiful to behold in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion. He has poured out his indignation like fire.
5 Yawe akomi lokola monguna: abebisi mokili ya Isalaele, abebisi bandako nyonso ya mokonzi ya Isalaele, abuki bandako na yango batonga makasi, atondisi matanga mpe kolela kati na Yuda, mboka kitoko.
HE. The Lord has become like an enemy. He has thrown down Israel. He has thrown down all of his defenses. He has torn apart his fortifications. And he has filled the daughter of Judah with humbled men and humbled women.
6 Abebisi lopango na ye ndenge babebisaka lopango ya elanga, abebisi esika na bango ya mayangani. Na kanda makasi na Ye, Yawe asali ete Siona abosana bafeti oyo ekatama mpe mikolo ya Saba; mpe apameli mokonzi mpe Nganga-Nzambe.
VAU. And he has torn apart her tent like a garden. He has demolished her tabernacle. In Zion, the Lord has delivered feast and Sabbath into oblivion, and king and priest into disgrace, and into the indignation of his fury.
7 Yawe abwaki etumbelo na ye, asundoli esika na ye ya bule mpe akabi na maboko ya monguna bamir mpe bandako ya mokonzi na yango. Bato bagangi makasi kati na Tempelo ya Yawe ndenge bagangaka na mokolo ya feti oyo ekatama.
ZAIN. The Lord has pushed away his own altar. He has cursed his own sanctuary. He has delivered the walls of its towers into the hand of the enemy. They have made a noise in the house of the Lord, as if on the day of a solemnity.
8 Yawe akani kobuka bamir oyo ezingeli Siona, mboka kitoko; atandi singa ya komekela molayi mpe azongisi loboko na Ye na sima te mpo na kobebisa; abebisi bamir oyo ebatelaka engumba mpe bamir mosusu; bongo akweyisi yango nyonso.
HETH. The Lord has decided to tear down the wall of the daughter of Zion. He has stretched out his measuring line, and he has not turned away his hand from perdition. And the rampart has mourned, and with the wall it has been torn apart.
9 Bikuke na yango ezindi na mabele; abuki-buki mpe abebisi banzete oyo bakangelaka bikuke yango. Mokonzi mpe bakambi na ye bakei na bowumbu kati na bikolo, Mobeko ezali lisusu te, mpe basakoli na ye bazali kozwa lisusu te bimoniseli kowuta na Yawe.
TETH. Her gates have been buried in the ground. He has ruined and crushed its bars. Her king and her princes are with the Gentiles. There is no law, and her prophets have found no vision from the Lord.
10 Bampaka ya Siona, mboka kitoko, bavandi kimia na mabele, bamisopeli putulu na mito na bango mpe balati basaki; bongo bilenge basi ya Yelusalemi bafukami, bilongi na bango kino na se.
JOD. The elders of the daughter of Zion have become idle; they sit on the ground. They have sprinkled their heads with ashes. They have been wrapped with haircloth. The virgins of Jerusalem have cast their heads down to the ground.
11 Miso na ngai elembi kobimisa mpinzoli, nazali komitungisa, libumu na ngai ezali kobaluka, motema na ngai ezali kotungisama mpo ete bato na ngai babebisami, mpo ete bana mpe bana oyo bazali komela mabele balembi-lembi banzoto na balabala ya engumba.
CAPH. My eyes have exhausted their tears. My internal organs have become disturbed. My liver has been poured out on the earth, over the grief of the daughter of my people, when the little ones and the infants passed away in the streets of the town.
12 Bazalaki koloba na bamama na bango: « Epai wapi tokoki kozwa ble mpe masanga ya vino? » Ndenge bazalaki kokweya-kweya lokola bato oyo bazoki bapota minene na babalabala ya engumba, ndenge wana mpe bazalaki kokufa na maboko ya bamama na bango.
LAMED. They said to their mothers, “Where is the wheat and the wine?” when they fell like the wounded in the streets of the city, when they breathed out their lives into the bosoms of their mothers.
13 Naloba lisusu nini mpo na yo? Nakokanisa yo na nani, Yelusalemi, mboka kitoko? Nakokanisa yo na nani mpo ete nakoka kobondisa yo, Siona, mboka kitoko? Pota na yo ezali monene lokola ebale monene; nani akoki kobikisa yo?
MEM. To what shall I compare you, or to what shall I liken you, O daughter of Jerusalem? To what shall I equate you, so as to console you, O virgin daughter of Zion? For your destruction is as great as the sea. Who will cure you?
14 Bimoniseli ya basakoli na yo ezalaki ya lokuta mpe ya pamba; balakisaki yo masumu na yo te mpo ete okende na bowumbu te: masakoli oyo bazwelaki yo ezalaki ya mabe mpe ya lokuta!
NUN. Your prophets have seen false and foolish things for you. And they have not laid open your iniquity, so as to provoke you to repentance. Yet they have seen for you false revelations and banishments.
15 Bato nyonso oyo bolekelaka na nzela na yo bazali kobeta maboko na kokamwa, bazali kobeta piololo mpe koningisa mito mpo na Yelusalemi, mboka kitoko: « Boni, ezali solo engumba oyo bazalaki kobenga kitoko ekoka mpe esengo ya mokili mobimba? »
SAMECH. All those who passed by the way have clapped their hands over you. They have hissed and shook their heads over the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, “Is this the city of perfect dignity, the joy of all the earth?”
16 Banguna na yo nyonso bafungoli minoko na bango mpo na kotiola yo, bazali koseka yo mpe kolia minu na bango; bongo bazali koloba: « Tomeli ye! Tala mokolo oyo tozalaki kozela! Tokomi penza na mokolo yango mpe tomoni yango! »
PHE. All your enemies have opened their mouth over you. They have hissed and gnashed their teeth, and they said: “We will devour her. Yes, this is the day we waited for. We have found it, we have seen it.”
17 Yawe asali makambo oyo abongisaki, akokisi liloba na Ye, nyonso oyo aloba wuta kala: akweyisi yo na mawa te, apesi nzela na banguna na yo ete balonga yo, atomboli liseke ya banguna na yo.
AIN. The Lord has done what he decided to do. He has fulfilled his word, which he instructed since the days of antiquity. He has destroyed, and he has not been lenient, and he has caused the enemy to rejoice over you, and he has exalted the horn of your adversaries.
18 Mitema ya bato ezali koganga epai na Nkolo. Oh mir ya Siona, mboka kitoko, tika ete mpinzoli na yo ebima lokola ebale, butu mpe moyi, mpe miso na yo ekangama te!
SADE. Their heart cried out to the Lord from the walls of the daughter of Zion. Let tears run down like a torrent throughout the day and the night. Do not give rest to yourself, and do not allow the pupil of your eye to cease.
19 Telema, ganga na butu ndenge bakengeli basalaka na butu; sopa motema na yo lokola mayi, na miso ya Nkolo, tombola maboko na yo epai na Ye mpo na bomoi ya bana na yo, oyo bazali kokufa nzala na babalabala nyonso.
COPH. Rise up. Give praise in the night, in the first of the watches. Pour out your heart like water before the sight of the Lord. Lift up your hands to him on behalf of the souls of your little ones, who have passed away from famine at the head of all the crossroads.
20 Oh Yawe, tala mpe mona! Nani oyo osalela makambo ya boye? Boni, basi basengelaki solo kolia mbuma ya mabumu na bango to bana oyo bango moko babokoli? Boni, basengelaki solo koboma mosakoli mpe Nganga-Nzambe kati na Esika ya bule ya Nkolo?
RES. O Lord, see and consider those whom you have made into such a vintage. So then, shall women eat their own fruit, little ones measured by the palm of the hand? Shall priest and prophet be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 Bibembe ya bilenge mpe ya mikolo elali-lali na babalabala; basali na ngai ya mibali mpe ya basi bakufi na mopanga! Obomi bango na mokolo ya kanda na Yo; obomi bango na mawa te!
SIN. The boy and the old man lie down on the ground outside. My virgins and my youths have fallen by the sword. You have slain them in the day of your fury. You have struck down, and you have not shown pity.
22 Ndenge obengisaka bato na mokolo ya feti, ndenge wana mpe obengisaki pasi wuta na bangambo nyonso mpo na kosala ngai mabe. Na mokolo ya kanda ya Yawe, moto moko te abikaki to atikalaki na bomoi. Monguna na ngai abebisi bato oyo nazalaki kobokola mpe kobatela.
THAU. You have called, as if to a day of solemnity, those who would terrify me all around. And there was no one, in the day of the fury of the Lord, who escaped or was left behind. Those whom I educated and nourished, my enemy has consumed.
