< Ezekiel 23 >

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Yawe alobaki na ngai:
2 “Son of man, two women were daughters of one mother,
« Mwana na moto, ezalaki na basi mibale, bana ya mama moko.
3 and they fornicated in Egypt; they committed fornication in their youth. In that place, their breasts were conquered; the breasts of their adolescence were subdued.
Bakomaki na kindumba mpe bamipesaki na yango wuta bolenge na bango, na Ejipito. Kuna, bato bazalaki kosakana na mabele na bango mpe kosimbasimba tolo na bango ya bolenge.
4 Now their names were Oholah, the elder, and Oholibah, her younger sister. And I held them, and they bore sons and daughters. As for their names: Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.
Oyo ya kulutu, kombo na ye ezalaki Ohola; mpe oyo ya leki, kombo na ye ezalaki Oholiba: bazalaki basi na Ngai mpe babotaki bana mibali mpe bana basi. Ohola azali Samari mpe Oholiba azali Yelusalemi.
5 And then, Oholah committed fornication against me, and she acted madly with her lovers, with the Assyrians who approached her,
Ohola amipesaki na kindumba tango azalaki nanu ya Ngai mpe akufelaki kolinga bamakangu na ye, bato ya Asiri, bilombe ya bitumba
6 who were clothed with hyacinth: rulers and magistrates, passionate youths and all of the horsemen, mounted on horses.
oyo balataka bilamba ya lokumu ya langi ya ble, bayangeli mpe bakonzi ya basoda; bango nyonso bazalaki bilenge mibali ya kitoko oyo bayebaki malamu kotambola na bampunda.
7 And she distributed her fornications to those chosen men, all of them sons of the Assyrians. And she defiled herself with the uncleanness of all those whom she madly desired.
Ye moko alakisaki polele kindumba na ye epai ya bato ya lokumu ya Asiri mpe amikomisaki mbindo na nzela ya banzambe ya bikeko nyonso, ya moto nyonso oyo ye azalaki kokufela na bolingo.
8 Moreover, she also did not abandon her fornications, which she had done in Egypt. For they also slept with her in her youth, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and they poured out their fornication upon her.
Atikaki te kindumba na ye oyo abandaki na Ejipito, oyo na tango ya bolenge na ye, mibali bazalaki kosangisa na ye nzoto, kosimbasimba tolo na ye ya bolenge mpe kosilisa baposa na bango ya nzoto epai na ye.
9 Because of this, I have delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the sons of the Assur, whom she has lustfully desired.
Yango wana nakabaki ye na maboko ya bamakangu na ye, bato ya Asiri, oyo azalaki kokufela.
10 They uncovered her shame; they took away her sons and daughters; and they slew her with the sword. And they became infamous women. And they carried out judgments in her.
Batikaki ye bolumbu, bakendeki na bana na ye ya mibali mpe ya basi, mpe babomaki ye na mopanga. Akomaki lokola ndakisa mpo na basi mosusu, pamba te azwaki etumbu.
11 And when her sister, Oholibah, had seen this, she was even more mad with lust than the other. And her fornication was beyond the fornication of her sister.
Ndeko na ye ya mwasi, Oholiba, amonaki makambo oyo nyonso; kasi lokola posa ya kindumba elataki ye makasi, asalaki mobulu koleka kutu ndeko na ye ya mwasi.
12 She shamelessly offered herself to the sons of the Assyrians, to the rulers and magistrates who brought themselves to her clothed with colorful garments, to the horsemen who were carried by horses, and to the youths, all of them exceptional in appearance.
Ye mpe akufelaki kolinga mibali ya Asiri: bayangeli, bakonzi ya basoda, basoda ya mpiko oyo balataka kitoko mpe batambolaka malamu likolo ya bampunda; bango nyonso bazalaki bilenge mibali kitoko.
13 And I saw that she had been defiled, and that they both took the same path.
Namonaki ete ye mpe amikomisaki mbindo: bango mibale balandaki kaka nzela moko.
14 And she increased her fornications. And when she had seen men depicted on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans, expressed in colors,
Nzokande, ye kutu akendeki mosika koleka na kindumba na ye; amonaki bililingi ya mibali na mir, bililingi ya bato ya Chalide, oyo basala na langi ya motane;
15 with belts wrapped around the waist, and with dyed headdresses on their heads, having seen the appearance of all the rulers, the likenesses of the sons of Babylon and of the land of the Chaldeans in which they were born,
mibali yango balataki mikaba na baloketo na bango mpe bitendi ya balangi ebele na mito na bango. Bango nyonso bazalaki na lolenge ya bakonzi ya basoda ya Babiloni, oyo babotama na mokili na Chalide.
16 she became mad for them with the desire of her eyes, and she sent messengers to them in Chaldea.
Tango kaka amonaki bango, akufelaki bango na bolingo mpe atindaki bantoma epai na bango, na mokili ya Chalide.
17 And when the sons of Babylon had gone to her, to the bed of breasts, they defiled her with their fornications, and she was polluted by them, and her soul was gorged by them.
Bato ya Babiloni bayaki epai na ye kino na mbeto na ye oyo asalelaka bolingo mpe bakomisaki ye mbindo na nzela ya kindumba na bango. Sima na bango kokomisa ye mbindo, ayinaki bango.
18 Also, her fornications were uncovered, and her shame was revealed. And my soul withdrew from her, as my soul had withdrawn from her sister.
Tango alakisaki polele kindumba na ye mpe atalisaki bolumbu na ye, nayinaki ye, ndenge kaka nayinaki ndeko na ye ya mwasi.
19 For she multiplied her fornications, remembering the days of her youth, in which she fornicated in the land of Egypt.
Nzokande, azalaki se kobakisa kindumba na ye tango azalaki kokanisa mikolo ya bolenge na ye, oyo azalaki kosala kindumba, na Ejipito.
20 And she was mad with lust after lying with them, whose flesh is like the flesh of donkeys, and whose flow is like the flow of horses.
Kuna, akufelaki kolinga bamakangu na ye, oyo nzoto na bango ya mibali ezalaka lokola nzoto ya mibali ya ane mpe oyo bazalaka na nguya ya kosangisa nzoto lokola mpunda.
21 And you have revisited the crimes of your youth, when your breasts were conquered in Egypt, and the breasts of your adolescence were subdued.
Boye, okanisaki lisusu kindumba na yo, oyo ozalaki kosala na bolenge tango mibali ya Ejipito bazalaki kosakana na mabele na yo mpe kosimbasimba tolo na yo ya bolenge.
22 Because of this, Oholibah, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will raise up against you all of your lovers, with whom your soul has been gorged. And I will gather them together against you all around:
Yango wana, Oholiba, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakosala ete bamakangu na yo, ba-oyo yo oboyaki, babalukela yo; mpe nakosala lisusu ete babimela yo na bangambo nyonso:
23 the sons of Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, the nobles, the sovereigns and princes, all the sons of the Assyrians, youths of exceptional form, all the rulers and magistrates, the leaders among leaders, and the renowned riders of horses.
mibali ya Babiloni mpe mibali nyonso ya Chalide, ya Pekodi, ya Shoa mpe ya Koa elongo na mibali nyonso ya Asiri, bilenge mibali kitoko. Bango nyonso bazalaki bayangeli mpe bakonzi ya basoda, basoda ya mpiko oyo batambolaka malamu likolo ya bampunda mpe bakonzi ya basoda ya lokumu; bango nyonso batambolaka likolo ya bampunda.
24 And they will overwhelm you, well-equipped with chariot and wheel, a multitude of peoples. They will be armed against you on every side with armor and shield and helmet. And I will give judgment to their eyes, and they will judge you with their judgments.
Bakoya kobundisa yo na bibundeli, na bampunda mpe na bashar na yango elongo na bato ebele; bakomibongisa mpo na kobundisa yo na bangambo nyonso, na banguba minene mpe ya mike, mpe na bikoti ya basoda. Nakokaba yo na maboko na bango mpo ete bapesa yo etumbu mpe bakosambisa yo kolanda mibeko na bango.
25 And against you, I will set my zeal, which they will execute upon you with fury. They will cut off your nose and your ears. And what remains will fall by the sword. They will seize your sons and your daughters, and your youngest will be devoured by fire.
Nakotelemela yo na kanda na Ngai mpe bakosala yo mabe, na mitema ya kanda penza. Bakokata yo zolo mpe matoyi; bongo bato na yo, oyo bakotikala bakokufa na mopanga. Bakokende na bana na yo ya mibali mpe ya basi, bongo ba-oyo bakotikala bakokufa na moto.
26 And they will strip you of your vestments, and take away the articles of your glory.
Bakobotola yo lisusu bilamba na yo mpe babiju na yo ya talo.
27 And I will cause your wickedness to cease from you, and your fornication to cease from the land of Egypt. Neither shall you lift up your eyes toward them, and you shall no longer remember Egypt.
Nakosukisa makambo ya soni mpe kindumba na yo, oyo obandaki na Ejipito. Okotombola lisusu miso na yo te mpo na komona bato wana mpe okotikala lisusu kokanisa Ejipito te.
28 For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will deliver you into the hands of those whom you have hated, into the hands by which your soul has been gorged.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Nakomi pene ya kokaba yo na maboko ya bato oyo oyinaka, bato oyo osepelaka lisusu na bango te.
29 And they will act toward you with hatred, and they will take away all your labors, and they will send you away naked and filled with disgrace. And the shame of your fornication will be revealed: your crimes and your fornications.
Bato yango bakoyina yo, bakosala yo mabe penza mpe bakobotola yo mbuma ya mosala na yo; bakolongola yo bilamba mpe okotikala bolumbu, bongo soni ya kindumba na yo ekobima polele. Kindumba mpe ekobo na yo
30 They have done these things to you, because you have fornicated after the Gentiles, among whom you were defiled by their idols.
nde ememelaki yo makambo oyo ekomeli yo, pamba te okufelaki kolinga mibali ya bikolo wana mpe omikomisaki mbindo na nzela ya kosalela banzambe na bango ya bikeko.
31 You have walked in the way of your sister, and so I will give her chalice into your hand.
Lokola olandaki nzela ya ndeko na yo ya mwasi, nakotia kopo oyo ye amelaki na loboko na yo.
32 Thus says the Lord God: You will drink the chalice of your sister, deep and wide. You will be held in derision and in ridicule, to a very great extent.
Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Okomela kopo oyo ndeko na yo ya mwasi amelaki, kopo moko ya monene mpe ya mozindo; ekomemela yo kosambwa mpe soni, pamba te ezali monene penza.
33 You will be filled with inebriation and sorrow, by the chalice of grief and sadness, by the chalice of your sister Samaria.
Ekolangwisa yo na pasi: kopo ya kobebisama mpe ya somo, kopo ya ndeko na yo ya mwasi, Samari.
34 And you will drink it, and you will empty it, even to the dregs. And you will consume even its particles. And you will wound your own breasts. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.
Okomela yango kino ekokawuka, okobuka-buka yango na biteni, mpe ekozokisa-zokisa mabele na yo, pamba te Ngai Nkolo Yawe nde nalobi.
35 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Since you have forgotten me, and you have cast me behind your body, so also will you bear your wickedness and your fornications.”
Yango wana, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Lokola obosanaki Ngai mpe otiaki Ngai na sima ya mokongo na yo, okomema mikumba ya ekobo mpe ya kindumba na yo. »
36 And the Lord spoke to me, saying: “Son of man, should you not judge Oholah and Oholibah, and announce to them their crimes?
Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, okosambisa penza Ohola mpe Oholiba? Lakisa bango misala na bango ya mbindo;
37 For they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands, and they have fornicated with their idols. Moreover, they have offered even their children, whom they bore for me, to them to be devoured.
pamba te basalaki kindumba, mpe makila etondi na maboko na bango; basalaki kindumba na banzambe na bango ya bikeko, mpe babonzaki lokola mbeka bana na bango ya mibali oyo babotelaki Ngai, mpo ete bakoma bilei ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko.
38 But they have done even this to me: They have defiled my sanctuary on the same day, and they have profaned my Sabbaths.
Basalaki yango mpe lisusu epai na Ngai: kaka na tango yango, bakomisaki Esika na Ngai ya bule mbindo mpe babebisaki bosantu ya mikolo na Ngai ya Saba.
39 And when they immolated their children to their idols, they also entered my sanctuary on the same day, so that they defiled it. They have done these things, even in the midst of my house.
Kaka na mokolo oyo bazalaki kobonza lokola mbeka bana na bango epai ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko, bazalaki mpe kokota na Esika na Ngai ya bule mpe kobebisa bosantu na yango. Yango nde bazalaki kosala kati na Ndako na Ngai.
40 They sent for men who were coming from far away, to whom they had sent a messenger. And so, behold, they arrived, those for whom you washed yourself, and smeared cosmetics around your eyes, and were adorned with feminine ornaments.
Batindaki mpe bantoma epai ya bato oyo bazalaka mosika. Mpe tango bayaki, omisukolaki nzoto, opakolaki biloko ya monzele na miso mpe olataki babiju.
41 You sat upon a very beautiful bed, and a table was adorned before you, on which you placed my incense and my ointment.
Ovandaki na mbeto moko ya kitoko; mpe liboso na yango, ezalaki na mesa moko oyo otiaka malasi ya ansa mpe mafuta na Ngai.
42 And the voice of a multitude was exulting within her. And concerning certain men, who were being led out of a multitude of persons, and who were arriving from the desert, they placed bracelets on their hands and beautiful crowns on their heads.
Zingazinga na ye, makelele ya bato ebele ezalaki koyokana, bameli masanga ebele oyo bawutaki na esobe elongo na bato ebele bayaki kolatisa bango mayaka na maboko mpe mitole ya bonzenga na mito na bango.
43 And I said about her, as she was being worn away by her adulteries, ‘Even now, she continues in her fornication!’
Boye, namilobelaki na tina na mwana mwasi oyo anzulukaki nzoto mpo na kindumba: ‹ Boni, ezali kaka ye oyo anzuluki nzoto nde azali kozongela lisusu penza kindumba! ›
44 And they entered to her, as if to a kept woman. So did they enter to Oholah and Oholibah, nefarious women.
Mpe basangisaki na ye nzoto: ndenge mibali basangisaka nzoto na mwasi ya ndumba, ndenge wana mpe basalaki bango, Ohola mpe Oholiba.
45 But there are just men; these shall judge them with the judgment of adulteresses and with the judgment of those who shed blood. For they are adulteresses, and blood is on their hands.
Kasi bato ya sembo bakosambisa bango mpe bakokatela bango etumbu oyo bapesaka na basi oyo basalaka ekobo mpe basopaka makila, pamba te bazali bandumba mpe maboko na bango ezali na makila.
46 For thus says the Lord God: Lead upon them a multitude, and hand them over to tumult and to pillaging.
Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Tika ete ebele ya bato batombokela bango, banyokola bango mpe babotola biloko na bango na makasi!
47 And may they be stoned with the stones of the peoples, and may they be pierced with their own swords. They will put to death their sons and daughters, and they will burn their houses with fire.
Tika ete babamba bango mabanga mpe baboma bango na mopanga; baboma bana na bango ya mibali mpe ya basi mpe babebisa bandako na bango na moto.
48 And I will take away wickedness from the land. And all women shall learn not to act according to their wickedness.
Na nzela wana nde nakosukisa kindumba kati na mokili, mpo ete basi nyonso bazwa mayele mpe balanda ndakisa na bango te.
49 And they will set your own crimes upon you, and you will bear the sins of your idols. And you shall know that I am the Lord God.”
Bokozwa etumbu mpo na kindumba na bino mpe bokomema mikumba ya masumu na bino ya kosambela banzambe ya bikeko; boye, bokoyeba solo ete Ngai, nazali Nkolo Yawe. »
