Zakari 14
1 Tala, mokolo ya Yawe ezali koya; ezali mokolo oyo bakokabola bomengo ya bitumba kati na yo, Yelusalemi.
A day is coming for the Lord, when your plundered possessions will be divided while you watch.
2 Nakosangisa bikolo nyonso, na Yelusalemi, mpo ete babundisa engumba yango; bakobotola yango, bakobuka bandako na yango, bakozwa basi na yango na makasi mpo na kobebisa lokumu na bango, mpe ndambo ya bato kati na yango bakokende na bowumbu, bongo ndambo mosusu ya bato bakotikala.
And all the nations will gather to Jerusalem, to fight against it. The city will be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city will go into captivity, and the rest of the people left in the ruins.
3 Bongo Yawe akobima mpe akobundisa bikolo wana, ndenge asalaka na tango ya bitumba.
Then the Lord will go forth and fight against these nations, as once he fought in the day of battle.
4 Na mokolo wana, makolo na Ye ekotelema likolo ya ngomba ya banzete ya olive oyo ezali na ngambo ya este ya Yelusalemi; mpe ngomba ya olive ekokabwana na biteni mibale: eteni moko na ngambo ya este mpe eteni mosusu na ngambo ya weste. Lubwaku moko ya monene ekosalema: eteni moko ya ngomba ekokende na ngambo ya nor, mpe eteni mosusu, na ngambo ya sude.
On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, (which is opposite Jerusalem, on the east). The Mount of Olives will be split into halves, from east to west, by an exceedingly great valley; and half of the mountain will slide northwards and half southwards.
5 Bokokimela kati na lubwaku ya bangomba na ngai, pamba te lubwaku ya bangomba ekokende kino na Atsali; bokokima ndenge bokimaki tango mabele eninganaki na tango Oziasi azalaki mokonzi ya Yuda. Bongo Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, akoya elongo na basantu na Ye nyonso.
You will escape through my valley – the valley between the hills will extend as far as Azel, and you will flee as you fled from before the earthquake, in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. But the Lord your God will come, and all the holy ones with him.
6 Na mokolo wana, ezala pole to malili to mpe mvula, eloko moko te ekozala.
And in that day, there will be no heat nor cold nor frost,
7 Ekozala mokolo ya ndenge mosusu, mokolo ezanga moyi mpe butu, mokolo oyo Ye moko kaka Yawe ayebi; pole ekobima soki pokwa ekoki.
but it will be constant day – it is known to the Lord – with neither day nor night. Even at evening time there will be light.
8 Na mokolo wana, mayi oyo etiolaka ekobimela na Yelusalemi. Ndambo moko ekokende na ebale monene ya este mpe ndambo mosusu, na ebale monene ya weste, na eleko ya malili mpe ya molunge.
And on that day living waters will flow from Jerusalem, half of them to the eastern sea and half of them to the western sea; in both summer and winter.
9 Yawe akozala Mokonzi ya mabele mobimba. Na mokolo wana, Ye moko kaka nde akozala Nkolo, mpe bakosambela kaka Ye.
The Lord will be king over all the earth. On that day the Lord will be one, and his name one.
10 Mokili mobimba, longwa na Geba kino na Rimoni, na ngambo ya sude ya Yelusalemi, ekokoma lokola etando ya Araba; kasi Yelusalemi ekozala kaka na likolo, ekotikala kaka na esika na yango, longwa na Ekuke ya Benjame kino na esika oyo Ekuke ya kala ezalaki, na songe ya bamir, longwa na ndako molayi ya Ananeyeli kino na bikamolelo ya mokonzi.
The land will be changed to plain, from Geba to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, but Jerusalem will be high and inhabited as it stands, from the Benjamin Gate up to the place of the first gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate, and as far as the king’s winepresses.
11 Bato bakozongela kovanda na Yelusalemi; Yelusalemi ekobebisama lisusu te mpe ekokoma na kimia.
Jerusalem will be inhabited, for never again will it be doomed to destruction, and its people will abide in security.
12 Tala etumbu oyo Yawe akopesa na bikolo nyonso oyo ekobundisa Yelusalemi: Misuni ya banzoto na bango ekobanda kopola wana bazali nanu na bomoi; miso na bango ekokufa na bilongi na bango mpe balolemo na bango ekokufa kati na minoko na bango.
This is the plague with which the Lord will strike all the peoples who array themselves against Jerusalem: he will make their flesh rot while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouth.
13 Na mokolo wana, Yawe akosala ete mobulu ekota kati na bango, bakobetana makofi mpe bakobomana bango na bango.
On that day a great panic sent by the Lord will fall on them. Everyone will seize their neighbours and attack them.
14 Bato ya Yuda mpe bakobunda kati na Yelusalemi, bakokongola bomengo ya bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga: wolo, palata mpe bilamba mingi koleka.
Even Judah will fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of the surrounding nations will be gathered up – gold and silver and piles of clothing.
15 Etumbu ya ndenge moko kaka ekokweya likolo ya bampunda, ya bamile, ya bashamo, ya ba-ane mpe ya banyama nyonso oyo ekozala na molako.
Plague will fall upon the horses, mules, camels, and asses, and on all the animals in all those camps.
16 Boye, batikali kati na bikolo nyonso oyo ebundisaki Yelusalemi bakomata mibu nyonso na Yelusalemi mpo na kogumbamela Mokonzi, Yawe Mokonzi ya mampinga, mpe mpo na kosala feti ya Bandako ya kapo.
All who are left of all the nations which fought against Jerusalem will come up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the pilgrim-feast of tabernacles.
17 Soki bato ya etuka moko ya mabele bakei te na Yelusalemi mpo na kogumbamela Mokonzi, Yawe Mokonzi ya mampinga, mvula ekonoka te na mokili na bango.
Whoever of all the peoples of the earth will not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there will be no rain.
18 Soki bato ya Ejipito baboyi kokende kosala feti na Yelusalemi, mvula ekonoka te na mokili na bango. Boye, Yawe akopesa bango etumbu oyo abongisa mpo na ekolo nyonso oyo ekoboya kokende kosala feti ya Bandako ya kapo.
If the family of Egypt does not go up nor enter in, on them also will come the plague with which the Lord will strike the nations.
19 Ekozala etumbu ya Ejipito mpe ya bikolo nyonso oyo ekoboya kokende kosala feti ya Bandako ya kapo.
This will be the punishment for the sin of Egypt and the punishment for the sin of all nations which do not come up to keep the feast of the tabernacles.
20 Na mokolo wana, bakotia makomi na bangonga mike-mike ya bampunda: « Ebulisami mpo na Yawe! » Banzungu ya Tempelo ya Yawe ekozala mpe bule ndenge bakopo ezalaka bule liboso ya etumbelo.
On that day there will be inscribed upon the bells of the horses, “Holy to the Lord” and the pots in the house of the Lord will be as holy as the sacrificial bowls before the altars.
21 Banzungu nyonso kati na Yelusalemi mpe kati na Yuda ekobulisama mpo na Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga; mpe bato nyonso oyo bakoya kopesa makabo bakozwa ndambo ya banzungu mpe bakolambela yango. Na mokolo wana, ata moto moko te ya mombongo akotikala kati na Tempelo ya Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
Every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of hosts and all who sacrifice will come and take of them and cook the sacrifices in them. There will be no more traffickers in the house of the Lord of hosts in that day.
