Jeremiah 45

1 The word that Jeremias the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Nerias, when he had written there words in a book, out of the mouth of Jeremias, in the fourth year of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda, saying:

Tango Baruki asilisaki kokoma kati na mokanda makambo oyo Jeremi atindaki ye, na mobu ya minei ya bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, mosakoli Jeremi alobaki na Baruki, mwana mobali ya Neriya, maloba oyo:

2 Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to thee, Baruch:

« Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, azali koloba na yo Baruki:

3 Thou hast said: Woe is me, wretch that I am, for the Lord hath added sorrow to my sorrow: I am wearied with my groans, and I find no rest.

Olobaki: ‹ Mawa na ngai! Yawe abakisi pasi mpe minyoko na ngai; nalembi likolo ya kolela mpe nazali lisusu na kimia te! ›

4 Thus saith the Lord: Thus shalt thou say to him: Behold, them whom I have built, I do destroy: and them whom I have planted, I do pluck up, and all this land.

Kasi Yawe alobaki na ngai: Loba na ye: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Nakokweyisa biloko nyonso oyo natongaki mpe nakopikola biloko nyonso oyo nalonaki kati na mokili oyo.

5 And dost thou seek great things for thyself? Seek not: for behold I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord! but I will give thee thy life, and save thee in all places whithersoever thou shalt go.

Boni, olingi koluka makambo minene mpo na yo moko? Te! Koluka yango te! Pamba te nakomemela bato nyonso pasi, elobi Yawe, kasi nakobikisa yo na bisika nyonso oyo okokende. › »
