Jeremiah 26
1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came from Yahweh:
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki, na ebandeli ya bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda:
2 “Yahweh says: ‘Stand in the court of Yahweh’s house, and speak to all the cities of Judah which come to worship in Yahweh’s house, all the words that I command you to speak to them. Don’t omit a word.
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Telema kati na lopango ya Tempelo ya Yawe mpe loba na bato nyonso ya bingumba ya Yuda, oyo bayaka kogumbamela Yawe kati na Tempelo. Yebisa bango maloba nyonso oyo nasili kotinda yo; kolongola ata liloba moko te.
3 It may be they will listen, and every man turn from his evil way, that I may relent from the evil which I intend to do to them because of the evil of their doings.’”
Tango mosusu bakoyoka, mpe moko na moko kati na bango akotika nzela na ye ya mabe; bongo Ngai nakobongola mokano oyo nasilaki kozwa ya kotindela bango pasi likolo ya misala na bango ya mabe.
4 You shall tell them, “Yahweh says: ‘If you will not listen to me, to walk in my law which I have set before you,
Loba na bango: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Soki boyokeli Ngai te, soki boboyi kotosa malakisi oyo napesaki bino
5 to listen to the words of my servants the prophets whom I send to you, even rising up early and sending them—but you have not listened—
mpe boboyi kotosa maloba ya basali na Ngai, basakoli, oyo nazalaki kotindela bino tango na tango atako boboyaki koyokela bango,
6 then I will make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.’”
nakosala na Ndako oyo, makambo oyo nasalaki na Silo; mpe bikolo nyonso ya mokili ekobanda kotangaka kombo ya engumba oyo mpo na kolakela mabe. › »
7 The priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in Yahweh’s house.
Banganga-Nzambe, basakoli mpe bato nyonso bazalaki koyoka Jeremi koloba maloba oyo kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
8 When Jeremiah had finished speaking all that Yahweh had commanded him to speak to all the people, the priests and the prophets and all the people seized him, saying, “You shall surely die!
Kasi tango Jeremi asilisaki koloba na bato nyonso maloba oyo Yawe atindaki ye, Banganga-Nzambe, basakoli mpe bato nyonso bakangaki ye mpe balobaki: « Okokufa!
9 Why have you prophesied in Yahweh’s name, saying, ‘This house will be like Shiloh, and this city will be desolate, without inhabitant’?” All the people were crowded around Jeremiah in Yahweh’s house.
Mpo na nini ozali kosakola na Kombo na Yawe ete Ndako oyo ekokoma lokola Silo; engumba oyo ekobebisama, ekotikala lisusu na bato te? » Ebele ya bato nyonso bazingelaki Jeremi kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
10 When the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king’s house to Yahweh’s house; and they sat in the entry of the new gate of Yahweh’s house.
Tango bakalaka ya Yuda bayokaki makambo oyo nyonso, balongwaki na ndako ya mokonzi, bakendeki na Tempelo ya Yawe mpe bavandaki liboso ya Ekuke ya Sika ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
11 Then the priests and the prophets spoke to the princes and to all the people, saying, “This man is worthy of death, for he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.”
Banganga-Nzambe mpe basakoli balobaki na bakambi mpe na bato nyonso: « Moto oyo asengeli kokufa, pamba te asakoli mabe mpo na engumba oyo. Bino moko boyoki yango na matoyi na bino! »
12 Then Jeremiah spoke to all the princes and to all the people, saying, “Yahweh sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that you have heard.
Jeremi alobaki na bakambi mpe na bato nyonso: « Yawe atindi ngai kosakola mpo na Ndako mpe engumba oyo, makambo nyonso oyo bosili koyoka.
13 Now therefore amend your ways and your doings, and obey Yahweh your God’s voice; then Yahweh will relent from the evil that he has pronounced against you.
Bobongola sik’oyo bizaleli mpe misala na bino, mpe botosa Yawe, Nzambe na bino; mpe Yawe akobongola mokano oyo asilaki kozwa, mpe akotindela bino lisusu te pasi oyo alakaki bino.
14 But as for me, behold, I am in your hand. Do with me what is good and right in your eyes.
Bongo mpo na ngai, nazali na maboko na bino, bosala ngai makambo nyonso oyo bomoni ete ezali malamu mpe sembo.
15 Only know for certain that if you put me to death, you will bring innocent blood on yourselves, on this city, and on its inhabitants; for in truth Yahweh has sent me to you to speak all these words in your ears.”
Kasi boyeba ete soki bobomi ngai, bokomema ngambo ya pamba na bomoi na bino mpe na engumba oyo elongo na bavandi na yango nyonso, likolo ya makila ya moto oyo ayebi likambo te; pamba te, solo penza, Yawe nde atindaki ngai epai na bino mpo na koyebisa bino maloba nyonso oyo, mpo ete boyoka yango. »
16 Then the princes and all the people said to the priests and to the prophets: “This man is not worthy of death; for he has spoken to us in the name of Yahweh our God.”
Bakambi mpe bato nyonso balobaki epai ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe basakoli: « Esengeli te koboma moto oyo! Azali solo koloba na biso na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe na biso. »
17 Then certain of the elders of the land rose up, and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying,
Ndambo ya bakambi ya mokili batelemaki mpe balobaki na lisanga mobimba ya bato:
18 “Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “‘Zion will be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem will become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.’
« Mosakoli Mishe, moto ya Moresheti, asakolaki na tango ya Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda; alobaki na bato nyonso ya Yuda: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: Bakobalola Siona ndenge babalolaka mabele ya bilanga, Yelusalemi ekokoma liboke ya mabanga, mpe ngomba epai wapi batongaki Tempelo ekokoma ngomba moke oyo ezipami na matiti. ›
19 Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? Didn’t he fear Yahweh, and entreat the favor of Yahweh, and Yahweh relented of the disaster which he had pronounced against them? We would commit great evil against our own souls that way!”
Boni, Ezekiasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, to moto mosusu kati na Yuda abomaki ye? Ezekiasi atosaki Yawe te mpe asalelaki mosakoli Mishe ngolu te? Yawe abongolaki mokano na Ye te ya kotindela bango pasi oyo alakaki? Tokomibendela biso moko pasi ya makasi na pamba. »
20 There was also a man who prophesied in Yahweh’s name, Uriah the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath Jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah.
Nzokande, Iri, mwana mobali ya Shemaya, moto ya Kiriati-Yearimi, azalaki mpe kosakola na Kombo na Yawe. Azalaki kaka kosakola makambo moko na Jeremi na tina na engumba mpe mokili oyo.
21 When Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men and all the princes heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Uriah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt.
Tango mokonzi Yeoyakimi elongo na bakalaka na ye nyonso mpe bakambi bayokaki maloba ya Iri, balukaki koboma ye. Kasi tango Iri ayokaki yango, abangaki makasi mpe akimaki na Ejipito.
22 Then Jehoiakim the king sent Elnathan the son of Achbor and certain men with him into Egypt.
Mokonzi Yeoyakimi atindaki Elinatani, mwana mobali ya Akibori, na Ejipito elongo na bato mosusu.
23 They fetched Uriah out of Egypt and brought him to Jehoiakim the king, who killed him with the sword and cast his dead body into the graves of the common people.
Babimisaki Iri na Ejipito mpe bamemaki ye epai ya mokonzi Yeoyakimi oyo abomaki ye na mopanga mpe apesaki mitindo ete babwaka ebembe na ye kati na kunda oyo bakundaka bato pamba.
24 But the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, so that they didn’t give him into the hand of the people to put him to death.
Nzokande Ayikami, mwana mobali ya Shafani, abatelaki Jeremi; boye akabamaki te na maboko ya bato mpo ete baboma ye.
