Emoniseli 9
1 Anjelu ya mitano abetaki kelelo, mpe namonaki monzoto kokweya na mokili wuta na Lola. Fungola ya libulu ya monene mpe ya molili makasi epesamaki na monzoto yango. (Abyssos g12)
And the fifth angel sounded; and I saw a star, which fell from heaven upon the earth. And there was given to him the key of the pit of the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
2 Tango efungolaki libulu yango, milinga ebele emataki longwa kuna; ezalaki lokola milinga oyo ebimaka na fulu monene ya moto makasi, mpe eyindisaki moyi mpe mopepe. (Abyssos g12)
And he opened the pit of the abyss; and smoke issued from the pit, like the smoke of a furnace that is in blast; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos g12)
3 Wuta na milinga yango, mankoko ebimaki, epanzanaki na mokili mpe epesamelaki bokonzi lokola oyo ya bakoto.
And out of the smoke, came locusts upon the earth: and power was given them, like that which scorpions have on the earth.
4 Nzokande epesamelaki mitindo ete esala mabe te na matiti ya mokili to na nkona nyonso ya mobesu to na nzete nyonso, kasi esala mabe kaka na bato oyo bazangi kashe ya Nzambe na bambunzu na bango.
And it was commanded them, that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, nor any herb, nor any tree; but only the persons, who had not the seal of God upon their foreheads.
5 Esengelaki konyokola bango basanza mitano, kasi esengelaki te koboma bango. Pasi oyo ezalaki kopesa ekokanaki na oyo moto ayokaka soki koto eswi ye.
And it was given them, that they should not kill them, but should torment them five months: and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion, when it striketh a person.
6 Na basanza wana mitano, bato bakoluka kufa, kasi bakozwa yango te; bakolinga kokufa, kasi kufa ekokima bango.
And in those days, men will desire death, and will not find it; and they will long to die, and death will fly from them.
7 Mankoko yango ezalaki lokola bampunda oyo babongisi mpo na etumba. Na mito na yango, ezalaki na biloko moko lokola mitole ya wolo, mpe bilongi na yango ezalaki lokola bilongi ya bato.
And the appearance of the locusts was this; they were like the appearance of horses prepared for battle; and on their heads, was, as it were a coronet, resembling gold; and their faces were like the faces of men.
8 Suki na yango ezalaki lokola suki ya basi, mpe minu na yango ezalaki lokola minu ya nkosi.
And they had hair, like the hair of women: and their teeth were like those of lions.
9 Tolo na yango ezalaki lokola bibende oyo basoda balataka na tolo, mpe makelele ya mapapu na yango ezalaki lokola makelele ya bashar oyo bampunda ebele ezali kobenda mpo na etumba.
And they had breastplates, like breastplates of iron: and the sound of their wings, was like the sound of the chariots of many horses rushing into battle.
10 Mikila na yango ezalaki na basonge lokola mikila ya bakoto, mpe nguya na yango ya konyokola bato basanza mitano ezalaki kati na mikila na yango.
And they had tails like those of scorpions, and stings; and with their tails they had the power of hurting men five months.
11 Anjelu ya libulu ya monene mpe ya molili makasi nde azalaki mokonzi na yango. Kombo na ye, na lokota ya Ebre, « Abadoni; » mpe, na lokota ya Greki, « Apolioni. » (Abyssos g12)
And they had a king over them, the angel of the abyss; and his name, in Hebrew, is Abaddon; and in Greek, his name is Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)
12 Tango pasi ya liboso elekaki, bapasi mosusu mibale elandaki.
One woe is past; lo, there come yet two woes after them.
13 Anjelu ya motoba abetaki kelelo, mpe nayokaki mongongo moko kobima longwa na maseke minei ya etumbelo oyo basala na wolo, etumbelo oyo ezalaki liboso ya Nzambe.
And the sixth angel sounded; and I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which was before God,
14 Mongongo yango ezalaki koloba na anjelu ya motoba oyo azalaki na kelelo na maboko: « Fungola ba-anjelu minei oyo bazali ya kokangama na minyololo pembeni ya ebale monene Efrate. »
that said to the sixth angel having a trumpet: Loose the four angels that are bound at the great river Euphrates.
15 Boye ba-anjelu wana minei oyo babongisamaki mpo na ngonga wana, mokolo wana, sanza wana mpe mobu wana, bafungolamaki mpo ete baboma eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya bato.
And the four angels were loosed; who are prepared, for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, to slay the third part of men.
16 Bazalaki minkoko nkama mibale ya basoda oyo babundaka na likolo ya bampunda. Yango nde motango na bango oyo nayokaki.
And the number of the warrior horsemen was two myriads of myriads: and I heard their number.
17 Tala ndenge nini, kati na emoniseli na ngai, bampunda mpe basoda oyo babundaka na likolo na yango bazalaki: balataki bibende oyo basoda balataka mpo na kobatela tolo. Bibende yango ezalaki ya motane makasi lokola moto, ya langi ya bule ya pete mpe ya langi ya mosaka; bongo mito ya bampunda ezalaki lokola mito ya bankosi, mpe minoko na yango ezalaki kobimisa moto, milinga mpe sofolo.
And while I looked on the horses in the vision, and on them who sat on them I saw that the breastplates were of fire, and of jacinth, and of sulphur. And the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions; and from their mouths issued fire, and smoke, and sulphur.
18 Tala bapasi misato oyo ezalaki kobima na minoko ya bampunda: moto, milinga mpe sofolo. Ebomaki eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya bato.
And by these three plagues, a third part of the men were slain; namely, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the sulphur, which issued from their mouths.
19 Nguya ya bampunda ezalaki kati na minoko mpe na mikila na yango, pamba te mikila na yango ezalaki lokola banyoka, mpe ezalaki na mito oyo, na nzela na yango, ezalaki kosala bato mabe.
For the power of the horses was in; their mouth, and in their tails; for their tails were like serpents, having heads to strike with.
20 Kasi bato oyo bakufaki te na nzela ya bapasi wana batikaki te banzambe oyo maboko na bango moko esalaki; batikaki te kogumbamela milimo mabe mpe banzambe ya bikeko oyo basala na wolo, na palata, na bronze, na mabanga mpe na mabaya atako emonaka te, eyokaka te mpe eninganaka te.
And the residue of men who were not slain by these plagues, repented not of the works of their hands, so as not to worship demons, and idols of gold, and of silver, and brass, and stone, and wood, which cannot see, nor hear.
21 Batikaki mpe te koboma bato, misala na bango ya maji, kindumba na bango mpe moyibi na bango.
And they repented not of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their whoredom, nor of their thefts.
