Isaiah 55
1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters; and he that hath no money, come ye, buy, and eat: yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price!
« Bino nyonso oyo bozali na posa ya komela, boya, boya na esika oyo mayi ezali; ezala bino oyo bozali na mbongo te, boya kosomba mpe kolia; boya kosomba vino mpe miliki: ezali ya ofele, ya kosomba na mbongo te!
2 Wherefore do ye spend money for [that which is] not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye [that which is] good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
Mpo na nini bozali kobebisa mbongo mpo na bilei oyo etongaka nzoto te, mpe kobimisa motoki mpo na bilei oyo etondisaka te? Boyoka, boyoka Ngai mpe bolia bilei ya kitoko, mpe bokosepela na biloko ya elengi.
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the sure mercies of David.
Bopesa Ngai matoyi na bino mpe boya epai na Ngai, boyoka mpe bokozala na bomoi; nakosala boyokani ya libela elongo na bino, boyokani oyo nalakaki Davidi, na boyengebene mpe na bolingo na Ngai.
4 Behold, I have given him [for] a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples.
Tala, nakomisaki ye motatoli na Ngai na miso ya bato ya bikolo ebele, mokambi mpe motambolisi ya bato.
5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation thou knowest not, and a nation [that] knew not thee shall run unto thee, because of Jehovah thy God, and the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.
Solo, okobenga bikolo oyo oyebi te, mpe bikolo oyo eyebi yo te ekoya na lombangu epai na yo mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, mpo na Mosantu ya Isalaele, pamba te alatisi yo nkembo. »
6 Seek ye Jehovah while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near.
Boluka Yawe wana akoki nanu komonana, bobelela Ye wana azali nanu pene.
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Tika ete moto mabe atika banzela na ye, mpe tika ete mosumuki atika makanisi na ye; tika ete azonga epai na Yawe mpo ete ayokela ye mawa, tika ete azonga epai ya Nzambe na biso, pamba te alimbisaka kaka.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith Jehovah.
« Makanisi na Ngai ezali makanisi na bino te, mpe banzela na Ngai ezali banzela na bino te, » elobi Yawe.
9 For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
« Pamba te ndenge likolo eleki mosika na mabele, ndenge wana mpe banzela na Ngai ezali likolo koleka banzela na bino, mpe makanisi na Ngai ezali likolo koleka makanisi na bino.
10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
Ndenge mvula mpe mvula ya pembe enokaka wuta na likolo mpe ezongaka te na likolo soki epolisi mabele te, soki ebotisi yango bambuma mpe bafololo te, soki epesi nkona te na moloni mpe bilei te na moto oyo aliaka,
11 so shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall do that which I please, and it shall accomplish that for which I send it.
ndenge wana mpe liloba oyo ebimaka na monoko na Ngai ezalaka: ezongaka pamba te epai na Ngai, soki esali nanu te mokano na Ngai, mpe soki ekokisi nanu te mabongisi oyo natindelaki yango.
12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
Bokobima na esengo, mpe bakotambolisa bino na kimia; bangomba milayi mpe bangomba mikuse ekoyemba nzembo ya elonga liboso na bino, mpe banzete nyonso ya zamba ekobeta maboko.
13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress, and instead of the nettle shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to Jehovah for a name, for an everlasting sign [that] shall not be cut off.
Nzete ya sipele ekobota na esika ya banzube, nzete ya mirite ekobota na esika ya basende; ekozala, mpo na lokumu ya Kombo ya Yawe, elembo ya libela na libela, oyo ekotikala kobebisama te. »
