Isaiah 64
1 Oh that thou would rend the heavens, that thou would come down, that the mountains might quake at thy presence,
Oh soki okokaki kopasola likolo mpe kokita, bangomba ekoningana liboso na Yo!
2 as when fire kindles the brushwood, and the fire causes the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!
Ndenge moto etumbaka matiti mpe etokisaka mayi na nzungu, kita mpo na kosala ete banguna na Yo bayeba Kombo na Yo mpe bikolo eningana liboso na Yo!
3 When thou did fearful things which we did not look for, thou came down; the mountains quaked at thy presence.
Pamba te tango osalaki makambo ya somo oyo biso tozalaki kozela te, okitaki mpe bangomba eninganaki liboso na Yo.
4 For from of old men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither has the eye seen, O God, besides thee, what he has prepared for him who waits for him.
Wuta na tango ya kala penza, moto moko te atikala kososola, litoyi moko te etikala koyoka, liso moko te etikala komona, ete nzambe moko, longola kaka Yo, asalaka boye mpo na bato oyo batalelaka ye.
5 Thou meet him who rejoices and works righteousness, those who remember thee in thy ways. Behold, thou were angry, and we sinned. Therefore we have erred.
Osungaka bato oyo bazalaka na esengo ya kosala makambo ya sembo, ba-oyo babosanaka nzela na Yo te. Kasi osilikaki tango biso tosalaki masumu; bongo ndenge nini tokoki solo kobika?
6 For we have all become as unclean, and all our righteous acts are as a polluted garment. And we all fade as a leaf. And our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
Biso nyonso, tokomi lokola eloko ya mbindo, misala na biso nyonso ya bosembo ezali lokola elamba ya mbindo; biso nyonso tokawuki lokola likasa mpe masumu na biso ememi biso lokola mopepe!
7 And there is none who calls upon thy name, who stirs himself up to take hold of thee. For thou have hid thy face from us, and have consumed us through our iniquities.
Moko te azali kobelela Kombo na Yo to kolamusa makanisi mpo na kokangama na Yo, pamba te obombeli biso elongi na Yo mpe obebisi biso likolo ya masumu na biso.
8 But now, O Jehovah, thou are our Father. We are the clay, and thou our potter, and we are all the work of thy hand.
Nzokande oh Yawe, ozalaka Tata na biso; biso tozali lokola mabele oyo basalelaka bikeko, bongo Yo, ozali lokola mosali mbeki; biso nyonso tozali mosala ya maboko na Yo.
9 Be not angry very severely, O Jehovah, nor remember iniquity forever. Behold, look, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.
Oh Yawe, tika ete kanda na Yo eleka ndelo te; kokanisaka masumu na biso tango nyonso te! Tala biso ndenge tozali kobondela, pamba te biso nyonso tozali bato na Yo.
10 Thy holy cities have become a wilderness. Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Bingumba na Yo ya bule ekomi esobe; ezala Siona, yango mpe ekomi esobe; Yelusalemi etikali lisusu na bato te!
11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned with fire, and all our pleasant places are laid waste.
Tempelo na biso ya bule mpe ya lokumu epai wapi batata na biso bazalaki koyemba masanzoli mpo na lokumu na Yo, esili kozika na moto; mpe nyonso oyo tozalaki na yango ya motuya esili kobebisama!
12 Will thou restrain thyself for these things, O Jehovah? Will thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very severely?
Oh Yawe, sima na makambo oyo nyonso, okozongisa kaka motema na Yo sima te? Okokanga kaka monoko mpe okopesa biso kaka etumbu oyo eleki ndelo?
