< Zakari 14 >
1 Tala, mokolo ya Yawe ezali koya; ezali mokolo oyo bakokabola bomengo ya bitumba kati na yo, Yelusalemi.
Behold! A day for Yahweh is coming when your plunder will be divided in your midst.
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.
For I will gather every nation against Jerusalem for battle and the city will be captured. The houses will be plundered and the women raped. Half of the city will go out into captivity, but the remainder of the people will not be cut off from the city.
3 Bongo Yawe akobima mpe akobundisa bikolo wana, ndenge asalaka na tango ya bitumba.
But Yahweh will go out and wage war against those nations as when he wages war on 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 beside Jerusalem to the east. The Mount of Olives will be split in half between the east and the west by a very great valley and half of the mountain will go back toward the north and half toward the south.
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.
Then you will flee down the valley between Yahweh's mountains, for the valley between those mountains will reach to Azel. You will flee just as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah. Then Yahweh my God will come and all the holy ones will be with him.
6 Na mokolo wana, ezala pole to malili to mpe mvula, eloko moko te ekozala.
On that day there will be no light, but no cold or frost either.
7 Ekozala mokolo ya ndenge mosusu, mokolo ezanga moyi mpe butu, mokolo oyo Ye moko kaka Yawe ayebi; pole ekobima soki pokwa ekoki.
On that day, a day known only to Yahweh, there will no longer be day or night, for the evening will be a time of 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.
On that day living waters will flow out of Jerusalem. Half of them will flow to the eastern sea and half to the western sea, in summer and in winter.
9 Yawe akozala Mokonzi ya mabele mobimba. Na mokolo wana, Ye moko kaka nde akozala Nkolo, mpe bakosambela kaka Ye.
Yahweh will be king over all the earth. On that day there will be Yahweh, the one God, and his name alone.
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.
All the land will be like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. Jerusalem will continue to be raised up and remain in its own place, from the Benjamin Gate to the place where the first gate was, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king's winepresses.
11 Bato bakozongela kovanda na Yelusalemi; Yelusalemi ekobebisama lisusu te mpe ekokoma na kimia.
The people will live in Jerusalem and there will be no more complete destruction from God against them. Jerusalem will live in safety.
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 will be the plague with which Yahweh will attack all the peoples that waged war against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot away even as they are standing on their feet. Their eyes will rot in their sockets and their tongues will rot in their mouths.
13 Na mokolo wana, Yawe akosala ete mobulu ekota kati na bango, bakobetana makofi mpe bakobomana bango na bango.
On that day that great fear from Yahweh will come among them. Each one will seize the hand of another, and the hand of one will be raised up against the hand of another.
14 Bato ya Yuda mpe bakobunda kati na Yelusalemi, bakokongola bomengo ya bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga: wolo, palata mpe bilamba mingi koleka.
Judah will also fight against Jerusalem. They will gather the wealth of all the surrounding nations—gold, silver, and fine clothes in great abundance.
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.
A plague will also be on the horses and the mules, the camels and the donkeys, and on every animal in those camps will also suffer that same plague.
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.
Then it will happen that all who remain in those nations that came against Jerusalem will instead go up from year to year to worship the king, Yahweh of hosts, and to keep the Festival of Shelters.
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.
It will happen that if anyone from all the nations of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to worship the king, Yahweh of hosts, then Yahweh will not bring rain on them.
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 nation of Egypt does not go up, then they will not receive rain. A plague from Yahweh will attack the nations that do not go up to keep the Festival of Shelters.
19 Ekozala etumbu ya Ejipito mpe ya bikolo nyonso oyo ekoboya kokende kosala feti ya Bandako ya kapo.
This will be the punishment for Egypt and the punishment for every nation that does not go up to keep the Festival of Shelters.
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.
But on that day, the bells of the horses will say, “Set apart to Yahweh,” and the basins in Yahweh's house will be like the bowls before the altar.
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.
For every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be set apart to Yahweh of hosts and everyone who brings a sacrifice will eat from them and boil in them. On that day traders will no longer be in the house of Yahweh of hosts.
