Zakari 6
1 Tango natalaki lisusu, namonaki bashar minei liboso na ngai: ezali kobima na kati-kati ya bangomba mibale ya bronze.
And again I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
2 Bampunda ya langi ya motane makasi ezalaki kobenda shar ya liboso, mpe bampunda ya langi ya mwindo ezalaki kobenda shar oyo ya mibale.
In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
3 Bampunda ya langi ya pembe ezalaki kobenda shar oyo ya misato, bampunda ya madodo-madodo ezalaki kobenda shar oyo ya minei. Bampunda nyonso ya madodo-madodo ezalaki makasi.
and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled bay horses.
4 Natunaki Anjelu oyo azalaki kosolola na ngai: — Bampunda nyonso oyo elakisi nini, nkolo na ngai?
Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
5 Azongiselaki ngai: — Ezali Molimo ya likolo oyo akokende na bangambo nyonso minei ya mokili mobimba. Atelemaki liboso ya Nkolo ya mokili mobimba mpe sik’oyo abimi.
And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four winds of heaven, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
6 Shar oyo bampunda ya langi ya mwindo ezali kobenda ezali kokende na mokili ya nor; shar oyo bampunda ya langi ya pembe ezali kobenda ezali kolanda oyo ya liboso, mpe shar oyo bampunda ya madodo-madodo ezali kobenda ezali kokende na mokili ya sude.
[The chariot] wherein are the black horses goeth forth toward the north country; and the white went forth after them; and the grisled went forth toward the south country.
7 Bampunda nyonso ya makasi ebimaki mpe etondaki na posa makasi ya kotambola na mabele. Boye, Anjelu alobaki na yango: « Bokende kotambola na mokili! » Mpe ebimaki mpo na kokende kotambola na mabele.
And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.
8 Abengaki ngai mpe alobaki na ngai: — Tala, bampunda oyo ezali kokende na mokili ya nor ekosala ete Molimo na ngai avanda na mokili wana ya nor.
Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, they that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.
9 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
10 — Kamata palata mpe wolo epai ya Elidayi, Tobiya mpe Yedaeya, ba-oyo bawuti na bowumbu wuta na Babiloni; mpe na mokolo yango kaka, kende yo moko na ndako ya Joziasi, mwana mobali ya Sofoni, epai wapi bakomeli.
Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, whither they are come from Babylon;
11 Kamata palata mpe wolo mpo ete osalela yango motole; bongo okolatisa yango Jozue, mwana mobali ya Yeotsadaki, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe.
yea, take [of them] silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
12 Okoyebisa ye maloba oyo: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: ‹ Tala moto oyo kombo na ye ezali: Moto ya nzete. Nyonso ekobota esika ye azali, mpe ezali ye nde akotonga Tempelo ya Yawe.
and speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold, the man whose name is the Branch; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
13 Ezali ye nde akotonga Tempelo ya Yawe; bakolatisa ye bilembo ya lokumu, mpe akovanda na kiti ya bokonzi mpo na kokonza. Mpe wana kaka na kiti na ye ya bokonzi, akozala mpe Nganga-Nzambe. Bongo misala nyonso mibale, ezala ya bokonzi to ya bonganga-Nzambe, ekotambola malamu. › »
even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
14 Bakobomba motole yango kati na Tempelo ya Yawe lokola ekaniseli mpo na kokanisa motema malamu ya Elidayi, ya Tobiya, ya Yedaeya mpe ya Eleme, mwana mobali ya Sofoni.
And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of the LORD.
15 Bato oyo bakowuta mosika penza bakoya mpo na kosunga misala ya kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, bongo bokoyeba solo ete Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, nde atindaki ngai epai na bino. Makambo oyo ekokokisama solo soki boluki kotosa Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. And [this] shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.
