< Isaiah 7 >
1 And in the dayes of Ahaz, the sonne of Iotham, the sonne of Vzziah king of Iudah, Rezin the King of Aram came vp, and Pekah the sonne of Remaliah King of Israel, to Ierusalem to fight against it, but he could not ouercome it.
Tango Akazi, mwana mobali ya Yotami, mwana mobali ya Oziasi, akomaki mokonzi ya Yuda, Retsini, mokonzi ya Siri, mpe Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, mokonzi ya Isalaele, bakendeki kobundisa Yelusalemi, kasi bakokaki kolonga yango te.
2 And it was tolde the house of Dauid, saying, Aram is ioyned with Ephraim: therefore his heart was moued, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are moued by the winde.
Boye, bapesaki sango na ndako ya Davidi: « Bato ya Siri basali boyokani elongo na bato ya Efrayimi. » Motema ya Akazi mpe mitema ya bato na ye nyonso eninganaki makasi ndenge kaka banzete ya zamba eninganaka na tango ya mopepe.
3 Then sayde the Lord vnto Isaiah, Goe foorth nowe to meete Ahaz (thou and Sheariashub thy sonne) at the ende of the conduit of the vpper poole, in the path of the fullers fielde,
Boye, Yawe alobaki na Ezayi: « Kende, yo elongo na Sheari-Yashubi, mwana na yo ya mobali, kokutana na Akazi na suka ya nzela ya mayi oyo ekenda kino na liziba monene, na nzela ya bilanga ya moto oyo atiaka balangi na bilamba;
4 And say vnto him, Take heede, and be still: feare not, neither be faint hearted for the two tailes of these smoking firebrands, for the furious wrath of Rezin and of Aram, and of Remaliahs sonne:
loba na ye: ‹ Kitisa motema, zala na kimia, kobanga te; tika ete motema na yo etungisama te mpo na bakoni mibale oyo ezali kopela: kanda makasi ya Retsini, moto ya Siri, mpe ya mwana mobali ya Remalia!
5 Because Aram hath taken wicked counsell against thee, and Ephraim, and Remaliahs sonne, saying,
Siri, Efrayimi mpe mwana mobali ya Remalia, basaleli yo likita mpo na kobebisa yo; bazali koloba:
6 Let vs goe vp against Iudah, and let vs waken them vp, and make a breach therein for vs, and set a King in the mids thereof, euen the sonne of Tabeal.
‘Tika ete tobundisa Yuda, tokata yango na biteni, tokabola yango biso na biso mpe totia mwana mobali ya Tabeli lokola mokonzi na yango.’
7 Thus sayth the Lord God, It shall not stand, neither shall it be.
Nzokande, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Ekotikala kosalema te, ekotikala kokokisama te!
8 For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin: and within fiue and threescore yeere, Ephraim shalbe destroyed from being a people.
Pamba te moto ya Siri ezali Damasi, mpe moto ya Damasi ezali na yango kaka Retsini. Etikali kaka mibu tuku motoba na mitano, Efrayimi ekobebisama mpe ekozala lisusu na molongo ya mabota te.
9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliahs sonne. If ye beleeue not, surely ye shall not be established.
Moto ya Efrayimi ezali Samari, mpe moto ya Samari ezali kaka mwana mobali ya Remalia. Soki botelemi ngwi te na kondima na bino, bokolonga te kotelema liboso na bango! › »
10 And the Lord spake againe vnto Ahaz, saying,
Yawe alobaki lisusu na Akazi:
11 Aske a signe for thee of the Lord thy God: aske it, either in the depth beneath or in the height aboue. (Sheol )
— Senga elembo moko epai na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, ezala kati na mokili oyo eleki na bozindo to oyo eleki likolo. (Sheol )
12 But Ahaz sayd, I wil not aske, neither will I tempt the Lord.
Kasi Akazi alobaki: — Nakosenga te, nakoki komeka Yawe te.
13 Then he sayd, Heare you nowe, O house of Dauid, Is it a small thing for you to grieue men, that ye will also grieue my God?
Boye Ezayi alobaki: — Boyoka sik’oyo, bino libota ya Davidi! Ekoki kaka te mpo na bino kolembisa mitema ya bato? Boni, bolingi lisusu kolembisa motema ya Nzambe na ngai?
14 Therefore the Lord himselfe will giue you a signe. Beholde, the virgine shall conceiue and beare a sonne, and she shall call his name Immanu-el.
Ye moko Nkolo akopesa bino elembo: moseka akokoma na zemi mpe akobota mwana mobali, akopesa Ye Kombo « Emanwele. »
15 Butter and hony shall he eate, till he haue knowledge to refuse the euill, and to chuse the good.
Mwana yango akomela kaka miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi kino tango akoyeba koboya mabe mpe kopona bolamu.
16 For afore the childe shall haue knowledge to eschew the euill, and to chuse the good, the land, that thou abhorrest, shalbe forsaken of both her Kings.
Kasi liboso ete mwana yango ayeba koboya mabe mpe kopona bolamu, mikili ya bakonzi mibale oyo ozali kobanga ekobebisama.
17 The Lord shall bring vpon thee, and vpon thy people, and vpon thy fathers house (the dayes that haue not come from the day that Ephraim departed from Iudah) euen the King of Asshur.
Yawe akoyeisela yo, bato na yo mpe libota ya tata na yo mikolo oyo etikala nanu kozala te wuta Efrayimi ekabwana na Yuda: ezali nde mokonzi ya Asiri.
18 And in that day shall the Lord hisse for the flie that is at the vttermost part of the floods of Egypt, and for the bee which is in the lande of Asshur,
Na mokolo wana, Yawe akobeta piololo mpo na kobenga nzinzi wuta na miluka ya Ejipito mpe banzoyi oyo ezalaka na mokili ya Asiri;
19 And they shall come and shall light all in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rockes, and vpon all thorny places, and vpon all bushy places.
ekoya mpe ekovanda kati na mabwaku ya mozindo mpe na madusu ya mabanga, na banzete nyonso ya mike-mike mpe na matiti nyonso.
20 In that day shall the Lord shaue with a rasor that is hired, euen by them beyond the Riuer, by the King of Asshur, the head and the heare of the feete, and it shall consume the beard.
Na mokolo wana, Yawe akosalela jileti oyo akodefa na ngambo mosusu ya Efrate, elingi koloba mokonzi ya Asiri, mpo na kokokola suki ya moto na yo, suki ya makolo na yo mpe mandefu na yo.
21 And in the same day shall a man nourish a yong kow, and two sheepe.
Na mokolo wana, moko na moko akobokola mwana ngombe ya mwasi mpe bameme to bantaba mibale ya basi.
22 And for the abundance of milke, that they shall giue, hee shall eate butter: for butter and hony shall euery one eate, which is left within the land.
Lokola bibwele wana ekopesaka miliki ebele, akolia manteka; mpe bato nyonso oyo bakotikala na mokili bakolia mafuta ya nzoyi.
23 And at the same day euery place, wherein shalbe a thousand vines, shalbe at a thousand pieces of siluer: so it shalbe for the briers and for the thornes.
Na mokolo wana, esika nyonso oyo ezalaki na banzete ya vino nkoto moko oyo ezalaki na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende ya palata, nkoto moko ekotonda na basende mpe na banzube.
24 With arrowes and with bowe shall one come thither: because all the land shall be briers and thornes.
Bato bakokota kuna na matolotolo mpe na bambanzi, pamba te mokili ekotonda na basende mpe na banzube.
25 But on all the mountaines, which shalbe digged with the mattocke, there shall not come thither the feare of briers and thornes: but they shalbe for the sending out of bullocks, and for the treading of sheepe.
Bato bakoleka lisusu te na bangambo nyonso oyo bazalaki kosala bilanga na kongo, pamba te bakokoma kobanga basende mpe banzube; ngombe ekokoma kolia kuna, mpe meme ekonyata-nyata mabele na yango.
