Esias 45
1 Thus says the Lord God to my anointed Cyrus, whose right hand I have held, that nations might be obedient before him; and I will break through the strength of kings; I will open doors before him, and cities shall not be closed.
« 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 you, and will level mountains: I will break to pieces brazen doors, and burst iron bars.
Nakotambola liboso na yo mpe nakolalisa bangomba, nakobuka bikuke ya bronze mpe nakokata-kata bibende oyo bakangelaka yango.
3 And I will give you the treasures of darkness, I will open to you hidden, unseen [treasures], that you may know that I, the Lord your God, that call you by name, am 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 the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel mine elect, I will call you by your name, and accept you: but you 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 For I am the Lord God, and there is no other God beside me; I strengthened you, and you 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 that [come] from the east and they that [come] from the west may know that there is no God but me. I am the Lord God, and there is none beside.
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 am he that prepared light, and formed darkness; who make peace, and create evil; I am the Lord God, that does all these things.
Nasalaka pole mpe nakelaka molili, napesaka kimia mpe nakelaka pasi; Ngai Yawe nde nasalaka makambo oyo nyonso.
8 Let the heaven rejoice from above, and let the clouds rain righteousness: let the earth bring forth, and blossom [with] mercy, and bring forth righteousness likewise: I am the Lord that created you.
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 What excellent thing have I prepared as clay of the potter? Will the ploughman plough the earth all day? shall the clay say to the potter, What are you doing that you do not work, nor have hands? shall the thing formed answer him that formed it?
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 As though one should say to [his] father, What will you beget me? and to his mother, What are you bringing forth?
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 For thus says the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, who has formed the things that are to come, Enquire of me concerning my sons, and concerning the works of my hands command me.
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 man upon it: I with my hand have established the heaven; I have given commandment to all the stars.
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 [to be] a king with righteousness, and all his ways are right: he shall build my city, and shall turn the captivity of my people, not for ransoms, nor for rewards, says the Lord 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 the Lord of hosts, Egypt has laboured [for you]; and the merchandise of the Ethiopians, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall pass over to you, and shall be your servants; and they shall follow after you bound in fetters, and shall pass over to you, and shall do obeisance to you, and make supplication to you: because God is in you; and there is no God beside you, [O Lord].
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 For you are God, yet we knew [it] not, the God of Israel, the Saviour.
Solo, ozali Nzambe oyo amibombaka, Nzambe, Mobikisi ya Isalaele!
16 All that are opposed to him shall be ashamed and confounded, and shall walk in shame: you isles, keep a feast to me.
Bato nyonso oyo basalaka banzambe ya bikeko bakoyoka soni mpe bakosambwa; bango nyonso, bakokende na soni.
17 Israel is saved by the Lord with an everlasting salvation: they shall not be ashamed nor confounded for evermore.
Kasi Yawe akobikisa Isalaele na lobiko ya seko na seko. Bokotikalaka lisusu koyoka soni te mpe kosambwa te, libela na libela.
18 Thus says the Lord that made the heaven, this God that created the earth, and made it; he marked it out, he made it not in vain, but formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord, and there is none beside.
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, nor in a dark place of the earth: I said not to the seed of Jacob, Seek vanity: I, even I, am the Lord, speaking righteousness, and proclaiming truth.
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; take counsel together, you that escape of the nations: they that set up wood, [even] their graven image, have no knowledge, nor they who pray to gods that do not 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 If they will declare, let them draw near, that they may know together, who has caused these things to be heard from the beginning: then was it told you. I am God, and there is not another beside me; a just [God] and a Saviour; there is none but 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 Turn you to me, and you shall be saved, you that [come] from the end of the earth: I am God, and there is none other.
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 swear, righteousness shall surely proceed out of my mouth; my words shall not be frustrated; that to me every knee shall bend, and every tongue shall swear by 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 saying, Righteousness and glory shall come to him: and all that remove them from their borders shall be ashamed.
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 By the Lord shall they be justified, and in God shall all the seed of the children of Israel be glorified.
Ezali kati na Yawe nde bato nyonso oyo bazali bakitani ya Isalaele bakokoma bato ya sembo mpe bakozwa lokumu.
