< Isaiah 62 >

1 I can't remain silent because of my love for Zion, I can't keep quiet because of my love for Jerusalem, until her integrity shines like a beam of light, until her salvation blazes like a burning torch.
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 The nations will see the way you live right, and all the kings will see how you are blessed, and you will be called by a new name that the Lord gives you.
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 You will be a crown of beauty in the Lord's hand; a royal head-dress in the hand of your God.
Okozala motole ya nkembo kati na loboko ya Yawe mpe ekoti ya bokonzi kati na loboko ya Nzambe na yo.
4 You won't be called Abandoned anymore; your land won't be called Desolate. Instead you will be called She Makes Me Happy, and your land will be called Married, because you make the Lord happy, and your land will be married.
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 just like a young man marries a young woman, so your sons will marry you; and like a groom is happy with his bride, so your God will be happy with you.
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 I have placed watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they won't ever be silent, day or night. You who pray to the Lord, don't ever stop and take a rest.
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 Don't give the Lord a rest either, until he finishes his work, until he makes Jerusalem the most praiseworthy place on 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 has made a solemn promise, swearing by his power and might: I won't ever again let your enemies have your grain to eat, or let foreigners drink the new wine you worked hard for.
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 Instead, those who harvest the grain will eat it and praise the Lord, and those who harvest the grapes for the wine will drink it in the courts of my Temple.
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 Exit! Exit through the gates! Clear the way for the people! Build the highway! Get rid of any rocks on the road! Lift up a flag so the nations can see!
Boleka, boleka na bikuke! Bobongisela bato nzela, bopasola nzela, bopasola nzela ya monene! Bolongola mabanga, botombola bendele liboso na bato ya bikolo.
11 See! The Lord has announced to everyone on earth, Tell the Daughter of Zion: Look! Your Savior is coming. He's bringing his reward with him, coming to give his gift!
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 They will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of the Lord; and you will be called the Sought-After Place, A City No Longer Abandoned.
Bakobenga bango Libota mosantu, basikolami na Yawe; mpe bakobenga yo Engumba oyo alingaka, engumba oyo basundola te.
