Isaiah 45
1 Thus says Jehovah to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held to subdue nations before him. And I will loose the loins of kings to open the doors before him. And the gates shall not be shut.
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi epai ya Sirisi, mopakolami na Ye, oyo Yawe asimbi loboko na ye ya mobali mpo na kokweyisa bikolo nyonso liboso na ye mpe kolongola mikaba wuta na baloketo ya bakonzi, mpo na kofungola bikuke liboso na ye mpo ete bikuke yango ekangama te:
2 I will go before thee, and make the rough places smooth. I will break in pieces the doors of brass, and cut apart the bars of iron.
Nakotambola liboso na yo mpe nakolalisa bangomba, nakobuka bikuke ya bronze mpe nakokata-kata bibende oyo bakangelaka yango.
3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou may know that it is I, Jehovah, who call thee by thy name, even the God of Israel.
Nakopesa yo bomengo oyo babomba na molili, bozwi oyo batia na bisika ebombama, mpo okoka koyeba ete Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo abengi yo na kombo na yo.
4 For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel my chosen, I have called thee by thy name. I have surnamed thee, though thou have not known me.
Mpo na bolingo ya Jakobi, mosali na Ngai, mpe Isalaele, moponami na Ngai, nabengi yo na kombo na yo, napesi yo kombo ya lokumu atako oyebi Ngai nanu te.
5 I am Jehovah, and there is none else. Besides me there is no God. I will gird thee, though thou have not known me,
Nazali Yawe, mosusu azali te; Nzambe mosusu azali te, soki Ngai te. Nalatisi yo mokaba na loketo atako oyebi Ngai nanu te;
6 that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none besides me. I am Jehovah, and there is none else.
mpo ete, longwa na ngambo ya este kino na ngambo ya weste, bato bayeba ete mosusu azali te, bobele Ngai nde nazali Nzambe. Nazali Yawe, mosusu azali te.
7 I form the light, and create darkness. I make peace, and create evil. I am Jehovah who does all these things.
Nasalaka pole mpe nakelaka molili, napesaka kimia mpe nakelaka pasi; Ngai Yawe nde nasalaka makambo oyo nyonso.
8 Distil, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open that it may bring forth salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up together. I, Jehovah, have created it.
Yo, Lola kuna na likolo, nokisa bosembo lokola mvula, tika ete mapata ekitisa yango! Tika ete mabele efungwama mpo ete lobiko ebima; tika ete bosembo ekola nzela moko! Ezali Ngai Yawe nde nakelaki yango.
9 Woe to him who strives with his maker, a potsherd among the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him that fashions it, What are thou making? or thy work, He has no hands?
Mawa na ye oyo abetaka tembe na Mokeli na ye, ye oyo azali kaka mbeki kati na bambeki ya mabele! Boni, potopoto ekoki solo koloba na moto oyo asali yango: ‹ Ozali kosala nini? › Mpe mosala ya maboko na yo ekoki solo koloba: ‹ Azali na maboko te? ›
10 Woe to him who says to a father, What are thou begetting? or to a woman, With what are thou travailing?
Mawa na ye oyo alobaka na tata na ye: ‹ Mpo na nini obotaki ngai? › Mpe na mama na ye: ‹ Mpo na nini obotaki ngai? ›
11 Thus says Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel and his maker: Ask me of the things that are to come concerning my sons. And command ye me concerning the work of my hands.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mosantu ya Isalaele mpe Mokeli na ye, alobi: Boni, bino nde bato bokotuna Ngai soki nakosala nini mpo na bana na Ngai na mikolo oyo ekoya to bino nde bato bokopesa Ngai mitindo mpo na mosala oyo maboko na Ngai esali?
12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it. I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host I have commanded.
Ngai nde nasala mabele mpe nakela bato kati na yango; loboko na Ngai moko nde etandaki likolo lokola liputa mpe etiaki mampinga na yango nyonso na molongo.
13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make straight all his ways. He shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward, says Jehovah of hosts.
Nakobimisa Sirisi na bosembo na Ngai; nakokomisa nzela na ye nyonso alima. Akotonga lisusu engumba na Ngai mpe akopesa bonsomi na bakangami na Ngai; ekozala na motuya ya mbongo to ya biloko te, elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga. »
14 Thus says Jehovah: The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to thee, and they shall be thine. They shall go after thee. In chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down to thee. They shall make supplication to thee, saying, Surely God is in thee, and there is none else, no God.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Mosala ya Ejipito, mombongo ya Kushi mpe bato milayi ya Seba, bakoleka epai na yo mpe bakozala ya yo. Bakotambola ya kokangama na minyololo, sima na yo; bakofukama liboso na yo mpe bakobondela yo na maloba oyo: ‹ Solo, Nzambe azali penza epai na yo, nzambe mosusu azali te! › »
15 Verily thou are a God who hides thyself, O God of Israel, the Savior.
Solo, ozali Nzambe oyo amibombaka, Nzambe, Mobikisi ya Isalaele!
16 They shall be put to shame, yea, confounded, all of them. They shall go into confusion together who are makers of idols.
Bato nyonso oyo basalaka banzambe ya bikeko bakoyoka soni mpe bakosambwa; bango nyonso, bakokende na soni.
17 But Israel shall be saved by Jehovah with an everlasting salvation. Ye shall not be put to shame nor confounded world without end.
Kasi Yawe akobikisa Isalaele na lobiko ya seko na seko. Bokotikalaka lisusu koyoka soni te mpe kosambwa te, libela na libela.
18 For thus says Jehovah who created the heavens, the God who formed the earth and made it, who established it and did not create it a waste, who formed it to be inhabited: I am Jehovah, and there is none else.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi, Ye oyo akela likolo, Ye oyo azali Nzambe oyo asala mpe abongisa mabele, mpe atelemisa yango ngwi; Ye akelaki yango te mpo ete ezala pamba, kasi asalaki yango mpo ete bato bavanda: « Nazali Yawe, mpe mosusu azali te.
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness. I did not say to the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain. I, Jehovah, speak righteousness. I declare things that are right.
Nalobaki na nkuku te, kati na esika moko te ya molili ya mokili; nalobaki te na bakitani ya Jakobi: ‹ Boluka Ngai kati na pamba! › Nazali Yawe, nalobaka oyo ezali sembo, nasakolaka oyo ezali alima.
20 Assemble yourselves and come, draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations. They have no knowledge that carry the wood of their graven image, and pray to a god that cannot save.
Bosangana elongo mpe boya, bopusana elongo bino nyonso, bino bato oyo bobiki kati na bikolo! Bato oyo bamemaka banzambe ya bikeko basala na nzete mpe babelelaka nzambe oyo ebikisaka te; bazangi boyebi.
21 Declare ye, and bring it forth. Yea, let them take counsel together. Who has shown this from ancient time? Who has declared it of old? Have not I, Jehovah? And there is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior. There is none besides me.
Botelema mpe bopesa sango, boloba makambo na bino mpe tosamba elongo! Nani asakolaki yango wuta kala mpe atatolaki yango wuta na tango oyo eleka? Ezali Ngai Yawe te? Ezali na Nzambe mosusu te, soki Ngai te. Nazali Nzambe ya sembo mpe Mobikisi; mosusu azali te, soki Ngai te.
22 Look to me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am God, and there is none else.
Bozonga epai na Ngai mpo ete bobika, bino nyonso oyo bozali na basuka ya mokili; pamba te Ngai, nazali Nzambe, mpe mosusu azali te.
23 By myself I have sworn, the word has gone forth from my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue will confess to God.
Nalapi ndayi na Kombo na Ngai; oyo ezali sembo ebimaka na monoko na Ngai, liloba oyo bakoki koboya te: mabolongo nyonso ekofukama liboso na Ngai, mpe minoko nyonso ekolapa ndayi na Kombo na Ngai.
24 Only in Jehovah, it is said of me, is righteousness and strength. Even to him men shall come, and all those who were incensed against him shall be put to shame.
Bakoloba na tina na Ngai: ‹ Makasi mpe bosembo ezali kati na Yawe kaka. › » Bato nyonso oyo batombokelaki Ye bakoya epai na Ye mpe bakoyoka soni.
25 In Jehovah all the seed of Israel shall be justified, and shall glory.
Ezali kati na Yawe nde bato nyonso oyo bazali bakitani ya Isalaele bakokoma bato ya sembo mpe bakozwa lokumu.
