Isaiah 56
1 Thus saith the Lord: Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my justice 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 doth this, and the son of man that shall lay hold on this: that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, that keepeth his hands 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 stranger, that adhereth to the Lord, speak, saying: The Lord will divide and separate me from his people. And let not 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 the Lord to the eunuchs, They that shall keep my sabbaths, and shall choose the things that please me, and shall hold fast 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 I will give to them in my house, and within my walls, a place, and a name better than sons and daughters: I will give them an everlasting name which shall never perish.
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 And the children of the stranger that adhere to the Lord, to worship him, and to love his name, to be his servants: every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and that holdeth fast 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 I will bring them into my holy mount, and will make them joyful in my house of prayer: their holocausts, and their victims shall please me upon my altar: for my house shall be called the house of prayer, for all nations.
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 God, who gathereth the scattered of Israel, saith: I will still gather unto him his congregation.
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 of the forest.
Bino banyama nyonso ya esobe, boya; bino banyama nyonso ya zamba, boya kolia!
10 His watchmen are all blind, they are all ignorant: dumb dogs not able to bark, seeing vain things, sleeping and loving dreams.
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 meet impudent dogs, they never had enough: the shepherds themselves knew no understanding: all have turned aside into their own way, every one after his own gain, from the first even to the last.
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, let us take wine, and be filled with drunkenness: and it shall be as today, so also tomorrow, and much more.
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! »
