Isaiah 63
1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
Azali nani, ye oyo awuti na Edomi, na Botsira, na bilamba ya motane? Azali nani, ye oyo alati bilamba ya lokumu, oyo azali kotambola lokola elombe, mpo ayebi ete azalaka makasi? « Ezali nde Ngai; nakataka makambo na bosembo, natonda na nguya mpo na kobikisa. »
2 Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?
Mpo na nini bilamba na yo ezali motane lokola bilamba ya mokamoli vino?
3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
« Nazalaki kaka ngai moko kati na ekamolelo mpo na kokamola vino, moko te kati na bato ya bikolo nyonso azalaki elongo na ngai. Nanyataki-nyataki bango na kanda na ngai mpe nakamolaki bango na kanda na ngai ya makasi; makila na bango epumbwelaki ngai na bilamba mpe ebebisaki bilamba na ngai nyonso.
4 For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.
Pamba te, na motema na ngai, ezalaki nde mokolo ya kozongisa mabe na mabe, mpe mobu na ngai ya kosikola ekokaki.
5 And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
Natalaki, kasi namonaki moto te oyo akosunga; nakamwaki ete moto azalaki te mpo na kosunga ngai! Bongo, loboko na ngai moko ebikisaki ngai, mpe kanda na ngai ya makasi esungaki ngai.
6 And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.
Nanyataki-nyataki bikolo na kanda na ngai, nalangwisaki bango na kanda na ngai ya makasi mpe nasopaki makila na bango na mabele. »
7 I will mention the lovingkindnesses of Yhwh, and the praises of Yhwh, according to all that Yhwh hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.
Nakotatola boboto ya Yawe, nakosanzola Ye mpo na misala na Ye, kolanda nyonso oyo Yawe asalaki mpo na biso; solo, asalelaki libota ya Isalaele makambo ebele ya kitoko kolanda boboto mpe bolingo na Ye ya monene.
8 For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
Alobaki: « Solo, bazali bato na Ngai, bazali bana oyo bakosaka Ngai te! » Yango wana, Yawe akomaki Mobikisi na bango.
9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.
Tango nyonso bazalaki na pasi, Ye mpe azalaki koyoka pasi na motema; boye, anjelu oyo atelemaka liboso na Ye abikisaki bango; asikolaki bango na bolingo mpe na mawa na Ye, akongolaki bango mpe azalaki komema bango mikolo nyonso ya tango ya kala.
10 But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.
Nzokande, wana batombokelaki Ye mpe bayokisaki Molimo Mosantu na Ye mawa, abalukelaki bango mpe akomaki monguna na bango; mpe Ye moko akomaki kobundisa bango.
11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?
Boye, bato na Ye bakanisaki mikolo ya tango ya kala, mikolo ya tango ya Moyize: Wapi Ye oyo akatisaki bango ebale monene, elongo na mobateli bibwele ya etonga na Ye? Wapi Ye oyo atiaki kati na bango Molimo Mosantu na Ye?
12 That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
Ye oyo atindaki ete loboko na Ye ya nkembo ezala elongo na loboko ya mobali ya Moyize, Ye oyo akabolaki mayi ya ebale monene liboso na bango mpo na kopesa Kombo na Ye lokumu mpo na libela;
13 That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?
Ye oyo atambolisaki bango kati na mozindo? Lokola mpunda kati na esobe, babetaki libaku te;
14 As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of Yhwh caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.
lokola bibwele oyo ezali kokita na lubwaku, Molimo na Yawe apesaki bango bopemi. Ezali ndenge wana nde okambaki bato na Yo mpo na kopesa lokumu na Kombo na Yo.
15 Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are they restrained?
Tala wuta na likolo mpe mona wuta na ndako na Yo ya bule mpe ya nkembo: Wapi bolingo na Yo, oyo eleka ndelo mpe nguya na Yo? Bolingo mpe mawa na Yo mpo na biso esili?
16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O Yhwh, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.
Nzokande, Yo nde ozali Tata na biso; atako Abrayami ayebi biso te to Isalaele andimi biso te; kasi Yo, Yawe, ozali Tata na biso, Kombo na Yo ezali: Mosikoli na biso ya tango nyonso.
17 O Yhwh, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, and hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants’ sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.
Yawe, mpo na nini kotika biso koyengayenga mosika ya nzela na Yo? Mpo na nini kokomisa mitema na biso makasi mpo ete totosa Yo te? Zongisa motema sima mpo na bolamu ya basali na Yo, mabota ya libula na Yo!
18 The people of thy holiness have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.
Bato na Yo bazwaki esika na Yo ya bule kaka mpo na mwa tango moke; kasi sik’oyo, banguna na biso bakweyisi Ndako na Yo ya bule!
19 We are thine: thou never barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name.
Wuta kala, tozalaka bato na Yo; kasi tokomi lokola bato oyo okambaka lisusu te, lokola bato oyo babengami na Kombo na Yo te.
