Isaiah 56
1 Thus saith Jehovah: Keep ye judgment and do righteousness; for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Botambola na alima mpe bosala kolanda bosembo, pamba te lobiko na Ngai ekomi pene mpe bosembo na Ngai ekomi pene ya komonisama.
2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that holdeth fast to it; that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
Esengo na moto oyo asalaka bongo, oyo akangamaka na yango, oyo abatelaka mokolo ya Saba mpe abebisaka te bosantu na yango, mpe oyo abatelaka loboko na ye ete esala mabe te! »
3 And let not the son of the alien, that hath joined himself to Jehovah, speak saying, Jehovah hath entirely separated me from his people; neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree;
Tika ete mopaya oyo akangami na Yawe aloba te: « Yawe akokabola ngai solo na bato na Ye! » Mpe tika ete soda oyo baboma mokongo aloba te: « Nazali na ngai kaka nzete ya kokawuka! »
4 for thus saith Jehovah: Unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and hold fast to my covenant,
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Mpo na basoda oyo baboma bango mikongo, oyo babatelaka mokolo na Ngai ya Saba, oyo baponaka makambo oyo esepelisaka Ngai, mpe bakangamaka na boyokani na Ngai:
5 even unto them will I give in my house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
nakopesa bango, kati na Tempelo na Ngai mpe na bamir na yango, ekaniseli oyo ezali na kombo: ekozala malamu koleka kozala na bana mibali mpe bana basi. Nakopesa bango kombo ya libela, oyo bakoki kolongola te.
6 Also the sons of the alien, that join themselves to Jehovah, to minister unto him and to love the name of Jehovah, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and holdeth fast to my covenant;
Bapaya oyo bakangami na Yawe mpo na kosalela Ye, mpo na kolinga Kombo na Ye mpe kogumbamela Ye, bato nyonso oyo bakobatela mokolo ya Saba mpe bakobebisa te bosantu na yango, mpe bato oyo bakokangama na boyokani na Ngai;
7 even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar: for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all the peoples.
nakomema bango na ngomba na Ngai ya bule mpe nakopesa bango esengo kati na Ndako epai wapi basambelaka Ngai. Bambeka na bango ya kotumba mpe makabo na bango ekondimama na etumbelo na Ngai, pamba te Ndako na Ngai ekobengama Ndako ya losambo mpo na bikolo nyonso. »
8 The Lord Jehovah, who gathereth the outcasts of Israel, saith: Yet will I gather [others] to him, with those of his that are gathered.
Nkolo Yawe oyo asangisi bawumbu ya Isalaele alobi: « Nakosangisa lisusu bato mosusu elongo na bango, esika moko na bato oyo nasilaki kosangisa. »
9 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, all ye beasts in the forest.
Bino banyama nyonso ya esobe, boya; bino banyama nyonso ya zamba, boya kolia!
10 His watchmen are all of them blind, they are without knowledge; they are all dumb dogs that cannot bark, dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber:
Bakengeli ya Isalaele bazali bakufi miso, bango nyonso bazangi mayele; bango nyonso bazali lokola bambwa oyo egangaka te, bakokaka koganga te, mosala na bango kolala mpe kolota bandoto, balingi pongi makasi.
11 and the dogs are greedy, they know not to be satisfied, and these are shepherds that know not how to discern: they all turn to their own way, every one for his gain, even to the last of them:
Bazali lokola bambwa ya lokoso, batondaka te. Bazali babateli oyo bazangi bososoli, moko na moko kati na bango alandaka kaka nzela na ye moko mpe alukaka kaka bolamu na ye moko.
12 Come, [say they, ] I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to-morrow shall be as this day, [and] much more abundant.
Moko na moko alobaka: « Yaka! Tika ete nakamata vino mpo ete tomela mpe tolangwa na biso masanga! Lobi mpe ekozala kaka ndenge moko na lelo, masanga ya komela ezali nanu ebele! »
