Micah 6
1 Hear ye now what the LORD saith; Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
Boyoka makambo oyo Yawe alobi: « Telema mpe samba likambo na yo liboso ya bangomba, mpe tika ete bangomba mikuse eyoka makambo oyo ozali koloba!
2 Hear ye, O mountains, the LORD’S controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth: for the LORD hath a controversy with his people, and he will contend with Israel.
Bino bangomba mpe bino miboko oyo eninganaka te, boyoka likambo oyo Yawe afundeli bato na Ye, pamba te azwi bango na likambo mpe alingi kosamba na Isalaele.
3 O my people, what have I done to thee? and how have I wearied thee? testify against me.
Bino bato na Ngai, nasali bino penza nini? Boyanola Ngai nanu, nalembisi bino na likambo nini?
4 For I brought thee out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee from the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
Ezali te mpo ete nabimisaki bino na Ejipito to mpo ete nakangolaki bino na ndako ya bowumbu? Boni, ezali te mpo ete natindelaki bino Moyize, Aron mpe Miriami mpo ete bakamba bino?
5 O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab devised, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim to Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the LORD.
Bato na Ngai, bokanisa nanu makambo oyo Balaki, mokonzi ya Moabi, akanaki kosala bino, mpe makambo oyo Balami, mwana mobali ya Beori, azongiselaki ye. Bokanisa nanu nzela oyo botambolaki longwa na Sitimi kino na Giligali mpo ete bokoka kondima ata misala ya bosembo ya Yawe. »
6 How shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?
Eloko nini penza tokoki komema epai na Yawe mpo na kofukama liboso ya Nzambe-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo? Boni, tomema bambeka ya kotumba to bana ngombe ya mibali ya mobu moko?
7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
Yawe akosepela solo soki tomemeli Ye minkoko ya bameme ya mibali to soki topesi Ye mafuta ebele lokola mayi ya ebale? Boni, topesa solo bana na biso ya liboso mpo ete tozwa bolimbisi masumu na biso? Boni, topesa bana na biso ya mibali oyo bawuti na mikongo na biso mpo ete akoka kolongola masumu na biso?
8 He hath shown thee, O man, what is good; and what the LORD doth require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
Oh moto, bateyaki yo makambo oyo ezali malamu. Mpe tala makambo oyo Yawe azali kosenga epai na yo: Tambola na bosembo, linga boboto mpe tambola elongo na Nzambe na yo na komikitisa.
9 The LORD’S voice crieth to the city, and the man of wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.
Boyoka! Yawe azali kobelela na engumba! Kotosa Kombo na Ye, yango nde kozala na bwanya. Boyoka sango ya etumbu na bino na monoko na Ye oyo atindi yango!
10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable?
Oh libota ya mobulu, boni, nasepela penza komona bomengo na bino, oyo bosili kozwa na nzela ya mabe, Efa ekoka te oyo elakelama mabe?
11 Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?
Boni, nazanga penza kopesa etumbu epai ya moto oyo asalelaka kilo ya lokuta, mpe oyo azali na libenga etonda na bimekelo kilo ya lokuta?
12 For her rich men are full of violence, and her inhabitants have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
Bazwi ya libota oyo batondi na kanza, bato ya libota oyo batondi na lokuta, mpe mosala ya bibebu na bango ezali kaka kokosa.
13 Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee, in making thee desolate because of thy sins.
Yango wana, Ngai nakobeta yo na nzela ya pasi mpe nakobebisa yo mpo na masumu na yo.
14 Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting down shall be in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take hold, but shalt not deliver; and that which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword.
Okolia, kasi okotonda te, pamba te nzala makasi ekokota na ndako na yo. Okosala ekonzo, kasi okobatela eloko moko te, pamba te nakokaba yango na mopanga.
15 Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.
Okolona bilanga, kasi okobuka bambuma te; okokamola bambuma ya olive, kasi okomipakola mafuta na yango te; okokamola bambuma ya vino, kasi okomela masanga na yango te.
16 For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I should make thee a desolation, and thy inhabitants an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
Lokola obatelaki malako ya Omiri mpe osalaki misala nyonso ya mabe ya ndako ya Akabi, nakokaba yo mpo ete obebisama, nakokaba bato na yo mpo ete batiolama; bongo bokolata soni ya libota na Ngai.
