< Isaiah 5 >

1 Now will I sing to my beloued a song of my beloued to his vineyarde, My beloued had a vineyarde in a very fruitefull hill,
Nakoyemba loyembo mpo na molingami na ngai, loyembo ya molingami na ngai mpo na elanga na ye ya vino. Molingami na ngai azalaki na elanga moko ya vino kati na mabele kitoko oyo ezalaka na mopanzi ya ngomba;
2 And hee hedged it, and gathered out the stones of it, and he planted it with the best plants, and hee builte a towre in the middes thereof, and made a wine presse therein: then hee looked that it should bring foorth grapes: but it brought foorth wilde grapes.
abalolaki mabele, alongolaki mabanga, mpe alonaki vino ya kitoko koleka; atongaki kuna ndako molayi ya bakengeli mpe atimolaki ekamolelo ya vino. Akanisaki ete akobuka bambuma ya vino ya kitoko, kasi ebotelaki ye bambuma ya mabe!
3 Now therefore, O inhabitants of Ierusalem and men of Iudah, iudge, I pray you, betweene me, and my vineyarde.
Sik’oyo, bino bavandi ya Yelusalemi, bato ya Yuda, bokata makambo kati na ngai mpe elanga na ngai ya vino!
4 What coulde I haue done any more to my vineyard that I haue not done vnto it? why haue I looked that it should bring foorth grapes, and it bringeth foorth wilde grapes?
Nasala penza eloko nini, mpo na elanga na ngai ya vino, oyo natikala nanu kosalela yango te? Mpo na nini eboteli ngai bambuma ya mabe, tango ngai nakanisaki ete ekobotela ngai bambuma ya malamu?
5 And nowe I will tell you what I will do to my vineyarde: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten vp: I will breake the wall thereof, and it shall be troden downe:
Sik’oyo, nakoloba na bino makambo oyo nakosala na elanga na ngai ya vino: Nakokweyisa lopango na yango, mpe ekobebisama; nakotobola madusu kati na bamir na yango, mpe baleki nzela bakokoma konyata-nyata yango.
6 And I will laye it waste: it shall not be cut, nor digged, but briers, and thornes shall growe vp: I will also commande the cloudes that they raine no raine vpon it.
Nakokomisa yango esobe: kati na yango, bakolongola lisusu te, ezala mabanga to matiti; bongo banzube mpe basende ekokola kuna. Nakopesa mitindo na mapata ete enokisela yango lisusu mvula te.
7 Surely the vineyard of the Lord of hostes is the house of Israel, and the men of Iudah are his pleasant plant, and hee looked for iudgement, but beholde oppression: for righteousnesse, but beholde a crying.
Nzokande, elanga ya vino ya Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, ezali nde libota ya Isalaele, mpe bato ya Yuda bazali elanga oyo ezalaki kosepelisa Ye. Azalaki kozela bosembo, kasi amonaki nde makila; makambo ya alima, kasi ayokaki nde kolela ya pasi.
8 Woe vnto them that ioyne house to house, and laye fielde to fielde, till there bee no place, that ye may be placed by your selues in the mids of the earth.
Mawa na bino bato oyo bobakisaka ndako likolo ya ndako, elanga pembeni ya elanga, kino bokangaka bisika nyonso mpe botikalaka kaka bino moko na mokili!
9 This is in mine cares, saith the Lord of hostes. Surely many houses shall be desolate, euen great, and faire without inhabitant.
Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobaki na ngai: « Solo, bandako minene ekotikala pamba, bandako kitoko ekozanga bato ya kovanda kati na yango.
10 For ten acres of vines shall yelde one bath, and the seede of an homer shall yelde an ephah.
Pamba te elanga ya vino ya ba-ekitare mibale ekobimisa kaka bisangala minei ya vino, bakilo nkama mibale na tuku mibale ya milona ya ble ekobimisa kaka bakilo tuku mibale na mibale. »
11 Wo vnto them, that rise vp early to follow drunkennes, and to them that continue vntill night, till the wine doe inflame them.
Mawa na bato oyo balamukaka na tongo-tongo mpo na kowumela liboso ya masanga ya vino kino na butu, kino tango bakolangwa masanga!
12 And the harpe and viole, timbrel, and pipe, and wine are in their feastes: but they regard not the worke of the Lord, neither consider the worke of his handes.
Bazali na mandanda, banzenze, masanga ya vino, bambunda mike mpe baflite mpo na kosepelisa bafeti na bango, kasi bakanisaka te mosala na Yawe mpe bazalaka na limemia te mpo na misala ya maboko na Ye.
13 Therefore my people is gone into captiuitie, because they had no knowledge, and the glorie thereof are men famished, and the multitude thereof is dried vp with thirst.
Yango wana, bato na Ngai bakokende na bowumbu mpo na kozanga boyebi; bato na bango ya lokumu bakokufa na nzala, mpe bato pamba bakokufa na posa ya mayi.
14 Therefore hell hath inlarged it selfe, and hath opened his mouth, without measure, and their glorie, and their multitude, and their pompe, and hee that reioyceth among them, shall descend into it. (Sheol h7585)
Boye, mboka ya bakufi ekoyoka nzala makasi mpe ekofungola monoko na yango makasi; bato ya lokumu elongo na bato pamba ya engumba bakokita kuna nzela moko mpe na loyenge na bango. (Sheol h7585)
15 And man shalbe brought downe, and man shalbe humbled, euen the eyes of the proude shalbe humbled.
Moto akokitisama, bato ya mokili bakoyokisama soni, mpe bilongi ya bato ya lolendo ekotala na se.
16 And the Lord of hostes shalbe exalted in iudgement, and the holy God shalbe sanctified in iustice.
Kasi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, akonetolama na nzela ya bosembo na Ye, mpe Nzambe Mosantu akolakisa bosantu na Ye na nzela ya boyengebene na Ye.
17 Then shall the lambes feede after their maner, and the strangers shall eate the desolate places of the fat.
Bameme ekokoma kolia matiti lokola nde ezali kati na elanga na yango moko, bapaya bakozwa bomengo oyo bazwi bakotika.
18 Woe vnto them, that draw iniquitie with cordes of vanitie, and sinne, as with cart ropes:
Mawa na bato oyo babendaka masumu na basinga ya makambo ya lokuta, mpe mabe lokola nde bazali kobenda shario na basheni!
19 Which say, Let him make speede: let him hasten his worke, that wee may see it: and let the counsell of the holy one of Israel draw neere and come, that we may knowe it.
Mawa na bato oyo balobaka: « Tika ete Nzambe asala noki, tika ete asala na lombangu mosala na Ye mpo ete tomona yango! Tika ete mabongisi ya Mosantu ya Isalaele ebelema mpe ekokisama mpo ete tokoka koyeba yango! »
20 Woe vnto them that speake good of euill, and euill of good, which put darkenes for light, and light for darkenes, that put bitter for sweete, and sweete for sowre.
Mawa na bato oyo babengaka mabe malamu mpe malamu mabe, oyo bamonaka molili lokola pole mpe pole lokola molili, oyo bamonaka bololo lokola elengi mpe elengi lokola bololo!
21 Woe vnto them that are wise in their owne eyes, and prudent in their owne sight.
Mawa na bato oyo bamimonaka lokola bato ya bwanya na miso na bango moko, mpe na bato oyo bamimonaka lokola bato ya mayele na miso na bango moko!
22 Wo vnto them that are mightie to drinke wine, and to them that are strong to powre in strong drinke:
Mawa na bato oyo bakenda sango ya komela vino mpe ya kosangisa masanga ya makasi:
23 Which iustifie the wicked for a rewarde, and take away the righteousnesse of the righteous from him.
bazwaka kanyaka mpo na kolongisa moto mabe mpe bazangisaka na moto ya sembo bosembo na ye!
24 Therefore as the flame of fire deuoureth the stubble, and as the chaffe is cosumed of the flame: so their roote shalbe as rottennesse, and their bud shall rise vp like dust, because they haue cast off the Lawe of the Lord of hostes, and contemned the word of the holy one of Israel.
Yango wana, ndenge ndemo ya moto ezikisaka matiti, mpe ndenge matiti ya kokawuka esilaka na moto, ndenge wana mpe misisa na bango ekopola mpe bafololo na bango ekopumbwa lokola putulu, pamba te babwakaki Mobeko na Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, mpe batiolaki liloba ya Mosantu ya Isalaele.
25 Therefore is the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, and hee hath stretched out his hand vpon them, and hath smitten them that the mountaines did tremble: and their carkases were torne in the middes of the streetes, and for all this his wrath was not turned away, but his hande was stretched out still.
Yango wana, Yawe atombokeli bato na Ye, asemboli loboko na Ye mpe abeti bango; bangomba eningani, bibembe na bango etondi lokola bafulu na balabala. Kasi ata bongo, kanda na Ye ekiti kaka te, loboko na Ye etikali kaka ya kosembolama.
26 And he will lift vp a signe vnto the nations a farre, and wil hisse vnto them from the ende of the earth: and beholde, they shall come hastily with speede.
Yawe atomboli bendele mpo na bikolo oyo ezali mosika, azali kobeta piololo mpo na kobenga bato oyo bazali na suka ya mokili: tala bango wana, bazali koya na lombangu mpe noki!
27 None shall faint nor fall among them: none shall slumber nor sleepe, neither shall the girdle of his loynes be loosed, nor the latchet of his shooes be broken:
Moko te kati na bango asili kolemba nzoto to abeti libaku, moko te azali konimba to kolala pongi. Moko te alongoli mokaba na ye na loketo, singa moko te ya basapato na bango etikali kokatana.
28 Whose arrowes shall be sharpe, and all his bowes bent: his horse hoofes shall be thought like flint, and his wheeles like a whirlewinde.
Bambanzi na bango ezali songe, batolotolo na bango nyonso ebendana makasi; makolo ya bampunda na bango ezali lokola mabanga, bapine ya bashar na bango ezali lokola mopepe makasi.
29 His roaring shalbe like a lyon, and he shall roare like lyons whelpes: they shall roare, and lay holde of the praye: they shall take it away, and none shall deliuer it.
Koganga na bango ezali lokola koganga ya bankosi: bagangaka lokola bana nkosi, bagangaka soki bakangi nyama na bango, bamemaka yango na esika ya kimia, mpe moto moko te akokaka kobotola bango yango.
30 And in that day they shall roare vpon them, as the roaring of the sea: and if they looke vnto the earth, beholde darkenesse, and sorowe, and the light shalbe darkened in their skie.
Na mokolo wana, bakoganga likolo na bango lokola makelele ya ebale monene. Mpe soki moto atali kati na mokili, akomona molili mpe minyoko: pole ekozipama na se ya mapata.
