Zakari 12
1 Liloba na Yawe. Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na tina na Isalaele. Yawe oyo atanda likolo mpe asala miboko ya mabele, Ye oyo atia Molimo na Ye kati na moto, alobi:
An oracle. This is the message of the Lord about Israel. The Lord who stretches out the heavens, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the human spirit within people says:
2 « Nakokomisa Yelusalemi lokola kopo ya vino oyo elangwisaka bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga na yango; bakozingela solo Yuda mpe Yelusalemi.
Look! I am about to make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness for all the surrounding peoples. There will be a siege of Jerusalem.
3 Na mokolo wana, nakokomisa Yelusalemi lokola libanga ya kilo liboso ya bikolo nyonso; moto nyonso oyo akoluka kotombola yango akozoka; mpe bikolo nyonso ekosangana mpo na kobundisa Yelusalemi.
On that day that I will make Jerusalem a stone to be lifted up by all the peoples. All who lift it up will surely hurt themselves! And all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it.
4 Na mokolo wana, nakobangisa bampunda nyonso mpe nakokomisa batambolisi na yango liboma, » elobi Yawe. « Nakosenzela libota ya Yuda, kasi nakoboma miso ya bampunda nyonso ya bikolo.
On that day, says the Lord, I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness. But over the house of Judah I will keep watch, though I strike every horse belonging to the peoples with blindness.
5 Boye, bakambi ya Yuda bakomilobela: ‹ Bato ya Yelusalemi bazali makasi mpo ete Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, azali Nzambe na bango. ›
And the chieftains of Judah will say to themselves, ‘The strength of the inhabitants is in the Lord of hosts their God.’
6 Na mokolo wana, nakokomisa bakambi ya Yuda lokola moto kati na liboke ya bakoni, lokola koni ya moto na se ya liboke ya matiti ekawuka: bakozikisa bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga na bango, ezala oyo ezali na ngambo ya loboko na bango ya mobali to ya mwasi. Kasi Yelusalemi ekotikala kaka na esika na yango.
In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire in the woods, like a torch among sheaves, they will devour right and left all the surrounding peoples. But Jerusalem will abide on its own site.
7 Yawe akobikisa liboso bandako ya kapo ya Yuda mpo ete lokumu ya libota ya Davidi mpe ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi eleka te lokumu ya Yuda.
And the Lord will first give victory to the tents of Judah, so that the glory of the house of David, and of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not exalted above Judah.
8 Na mokolo wana, Yawe akobatela bavandi ya Yelusalemi mpo ete bato ya bolembu kati na bango bakoma makasi lokola Davidi, mpe libota ya Davidi ekoma lokola Nzambe, lokola Anjelu ya Yawe, oyo azali kotambola liboso na bango.
In that day the Lord will protect the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the feeblest among them will in that day be like David, and the house of David like God, like the messenger of the Lord before them.
9 Na mokolo wana, nakobima mpo na koboma bikolo nyonso oyo ekobundisa Yelusalemi.
And in that day I will seek to destroy all the nations who have come up against Jerusalem.
10 Nakosopa Molimo ya ngolu mpe ya mabondeli epai ya libota ya Davidi mpe epai ya bavandi ya Yelusalemi. Bakosembola miso na bango epai na Ngai oyo batobolaki. Bakosalela ye matanga ndenge kaka basalaka matanga ya mwana oyo abotama kaka ye moko; bakolela ye makasi ndenge balelaka mwana mobali ya liboso oyo asili kokufa.
And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of pity and compassion. They will look on him whom they have pierced and they will lament for him as one laments for an only son. They will bitterly grieve for him as one grieves for the firstborn.
11 Na mokolo wana, matanga kati na Yelusalemi ekozala monene lokola matanga ya Adadi-Rimoni na etando ya Megido.
In that day mourning will be as great in Jerusalem as the mourning for Hadad-rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
12 Mokili mobimba ekosala matanga, etuka na etuka na esika na yango elongo na basi na yango: etuka ya libota ya Davidi elongo na basi na yango, etuka ya libota ya Natan elongo na basi na yango,
And the land will mourn, each family by itself: the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves, and the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves,
13 etuka ya libota ya Levi elongo na basi na yango, etuka ya libota ya Shimei elongo na basi na yango,
and the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves, the family of the Shimeites by itself, and their wives by themselves,
14 mpe bituka nyonso oyo etikali elongo na basi na yango.
and all the families who are left, each by itself, and their wives by themselves.
