< Isaiah 62 >

1 For Sion’s sake I will not hold my peace, and for the sake of Jerusalem, I will not rest till her just one come forth as brightness, and her saviour be lighted as a lamp.
Mpo na likambo ya Siona, nakokanga monoko na Ngai te; mpo na likambo ya Yelusalemi, nakovanda kimia te, kino bosembo na ye emonana lokola kongenga ya pole, mpe lobiko na ye emonana lokola mwinda.
2 And the Gentiles shall see thy just one, and all kings thy glorious one: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name.
Bongo bikolo ekomona bosembo na yo, mpe bakonzi nyonso bakomona nkembo na yo. Bakobenga yo na kombo ya sika oyo monoko na Yawe ekopesa.
3 And thou shalt be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
Okozala motole ya nkembo kati na loboko ya Yawe mpe ekoti ya bokonzi kati na loboko ya Nzambe na yo.
4 Thou shalt no more be called Forsaken: and thy land shall no more be called Desolate: but thou shalt be called My pleasure in her, and thy land inhabited. Because the Lord hath been well pleased with thee: and thy land shall be inhabited.
Bakobenga yo lisusu te Engumba basundola, bakobenga lisusu mokili na yo te Mokili ebeba; kasi bakobenga yo « Esengo ya Yawe, » mpe bakobenga mokili na yo « Mwasi ya libala, » pamba te Yawe akozwa esengo kati na yo, mpe mabele na yo ekozwa mobali ya libala.
5 For the young man shall dwell with the virgin, and thy children shall dwell in thee. And the bridegroom shall rejoice over the bride, and thy God shall rejoice over thee.
Lokola elenge mobali abalaka moseka, bana na yo ya mibali mpe bakobala yo; lokola elenge mobali asepelaka na mobandami na ye ya mwasi, Nzambe na yo mpe akosepela na yo.
6 Upon thy wails, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen all the day, and all the night, they shall never hold their peace. You that are mindful of the Lord, hold not your peace,
Oh Yelusalemi, natelemisi basenzeli na likolo ya bamir na yo; bakovanda nye te, ezala na moyi to na butu. Bino bato oyo bosalaka ete Yawe akanisa lisusu Yelusalemi, bovanda kimia te;
7 And give him no silence till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
mpe botikela Ye te tango ya kopema kino tango akozongisa kimia na Yelusalemi mpe akokomisa yango mboka ya lokumu kati na mokili!
8 The Lord hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength: Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for thy enemies: and the sons of the strangers shall not drink thy wine, for which thou hast laboured.
Yawe atomboli loboko na Ye ya mobali, loboko na Ye ya nguya, mpe alapi ndayi: « Nakopesa lisusu ble na yo te lokola bilei epai ya banguna na yo; bapaya bakomela lisusu te vino na yo ya sika oyo omonelaki pasi;
9 For they that gather it, shall eat it, and shall praise the Lord: and they that bring it together, shall drink it in my holy courts.
kasi bato oyo bakobuka ble bakolia yango mpe bakokumisa Yawe, mpe ba-oyo bakokamola vino bakomela yango kati na lopango ya Esika na Ngai ya bule. »
10 Go through, go through the gates, prepare the way for the people, make the road plain, pick out the stones, and lift up the standard to the people.
Boleka, boleka na bikuke! Bobongisela bato nzela, bopasola nzela, bopasola nzela ya monene! Bolongola mabanga, botombola bendele liboso na bato ya bikolo.
11 Behold the Lord hath made it to be heard in the ends of the earth, tell the daughter of Sion: Behold thy Saviour cometh: behold his reward is with him, and his work before him.
Tala makambo oyo Yawe atatoli kino na basuka ya mabele: « Boloba na Siona, mboka kitoko: ‹ Tala, Mobikisi na yo azali koya! Tala, lifuti na ye ezali elongo na ye, mpe azali kotambola elongo na litomba na ye. › »
12 And they shall call them, The holy people, the redeemed of the Lord. But thou shalt be called: A city sought after, and not forsaken.
Bakobenga bango Libota mosantu, basikolami na Yawe; mpe bakobenga yo Engumba oyo alingaka, engumba oyo basundola te.
