< Isaiah 30 >

1 Woe to the rebellious children, says the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
« Mawa na bana ya mito makasi, » elobi Yawe: « basalaka mabongisi oyo ewutaka epai na Ngai te mpe basalaka boyokani oyo ewuti na Molimo na Ngai te, mpo ete babakisa lisumu likolo ya lisumu;
2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
mawa na bato oyo bakendaka na Ejipito, na kozanga kotuna toli na Ngai, mpo na koluka lisungi ya kobatelama epai ya Faraon mpe koluka ebombamelo na se ya elili ya Ejipito!
3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
Kasi ndako batonga makasi ya Faraon epai wapi bokokimela ekokomela bino soni, mpe elili ya Ejipito ekokoma likambo ya soni makasi.
4 For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes.
Ata bakalaka na bango bazali na Tsoani mpe bantoma na bango bakomi na Anesi,
5 They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them, nor be an help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
bango nyonso bakoyoka kaka soni na miso ya bato oyo bakosunga bango ata moke te, oyo bakopesa bango ata lisungi to litomba moko te, kasi bobele soni mpe kotiolama. »
6 The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
Maloba na Yawe na tina na banyama ya Negevi: Kati na mokili ya pasi mpe ya kobanga, mokili ya bankosi ya mibali mpe ya bankosi ya basi, ya etupa mpe ya banyoka oyo epumbwaka, bantoma bazali komema bozwi na bango na mikongo ya ba-ane, bomengo na bango na mikongo ya bashamo, epai ya ekolo oyo ekotikala kopesa bango ata litomba moko te:
7 For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.
ekolo ya Ejipito oyo lisungi na yango ekozala penza na tina moko te; yango wana, napesi yango kombo « Rahavi. »
8 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
Kende sik’oyo, koma makambo oyo na etando ya libanga liboso na bango, koma yango na buku moko mpo ete na mikolo oyo ekoya, ezala lokola litatoli ya libela na libela.
9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:
Bato oyo bazali libota ya batomboki, bazali bana ya lokuta, bana oyo balingaka te koyoka mateya ya Yawe;
10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
balobaka na bato oyo bamonaka makambo: « Bomona te, » mpe na basakoli: « Bosakolela biso bimoniseli ya solo te, boyebisa biso makambo oyo esepelisaka biso, bosakolela biso makambo ya lokuta.
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
Botika nzela wana, bobima penza na nzela wana mpe botika kotungisa biso mpo na Mosantu ya Isalaele! »
12 Wherefore thus says the Holy One of Israel, Because all of you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
Mpo na yango, tala liloba oyo Mosantu ya Isalaele alobi: « Lokola bobwaki maloba oyo, lokola bokangami na monyokoli mpe na mokosi oyo bozali kotiela motema,
13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly at an instant.
lisumu oyo ekokoma mpo na bino lokola mir ya molayi oyo esala nzela mpe lidusu, bongo ebukani mpe ekweyi mbala moko na mbalakata.
14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a potsherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water likewise out of the pit.
Ekobukana ndambo-ndambo lokola mbeki ya mosali mbeki, ekopanzana penza nye na mawa te; bongo ata eteni moko te ekozwama kati na yango mpo na kozwela likala ya moto na mbabola to mpo na kotokela mayi na libulu. »
15 For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall all of you be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and all of you would not.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe, Mosantu ya Isalaele, alobi: « Ekozala kati na kobongola mitema mpe kimia nde bokozwa lobiko na bino; ekozala na nzela ya kimia mpe ya elikya nde bokozwa makasi na bino; kasi bino, bolingi bongo te.
16 But all of you said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall all of you flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
Bolobaki: ‹ Te, tokopota mbangu likolo ya mpunda; › solo, bokokima nde! Bolobaki: ‹ Tokopota mbangu na mpunda oyo eleki mbangu; › solo, bato oyo bakolanda bino bakoleka bino na mbangu!
17 One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall all of you flee: till all of you be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an explicit sign on an hill.
Bato nkoto moko bakokima na mangungu ya moto moko kaka; mpe na mangungu ya bato mitano, bino nyonso bokokima kino bokotikala lokola nzete ya bendele na songe ya ngomba, mpe lokola bendele na likolo ya ngomba moke. »
18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
Nzokande, Yawe alingi kosalela bino ngolu, atelemi likolo mpo na koyokela bino mawa. Pamba te Yawe azali Nzambe ya sembo: Esengo na bato nyonso oyo batalelaka Ye!
19 For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: you shall weep no more: he will be very gracious unto you at the voice of your cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer you.
Oh bato ya Siona, bino oyo bavandaka na Yelusalemi, bokolela lisusu te. Tango bokobelela Ye, akoyokela bino mawa; tango kaka akoyoka, akoyanola bino.
20 And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not your teachers be removed into a corner any more, but your eyes shall see your teachers:
Nkolo akopesa bino lipa na tango ya pasi, mpe mayi na tango ya minyoko; moto oyo akoteya bino akotikala lisusu ya kobombama te, kasi miso na bino moko ekomona ye.
21 And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way, walk all of you in it, when all of you turn to the right hand, and when all of you turn to the left.
Ata bokeyi na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali to na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi, matoyi na bino ekoyoka sima na bino liloba oyo: « Tala nzela yango oyo! »
22 All of you shall defile also the covering of your graven images of silver, and the ornament of your molten images of gold: you shall cast them away as a menstruous cloth; you shall say unto it, Get you behind.
Bokotala lokola mbindo bikeko oyo balatisa palata mpe bikeko ya bibende oyo balatisa wolo; bokobwaka yango mosika ndenge babwakaka elamba ya makila ya mwasi oyo azali komona sanza, mpe bokoloba na yango: « Longwa awa! »
23 Then shall he give the rain of your seed, that you shall sow the ground likewise; and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shall be fat and abundant: in that day shall your cattle feed in large pastures.
Boye, akotindela yo lisusu mvula mpo na milona oyo okolona na mabele, mpe bilei oyo mabele ekobota na mokili ekozala ebele mpe elengi. Na mokolo wana, bibwele na bino ekolia na bazamba minene.
24 The oxen likewise and the young asses that ear the ground shall eat clean animal food, which has been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
Bangombe mpe ba-ane oyo ebalolaka mabele ya bilanga ekolia matiti ya mungwa oyo baponi na pawu mpe na kiyungulu.
25 And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers and streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Na mokolo ya kosambisa, tango bandako milayi ekobukana, bibale ya mayi ekotiola na bangomba nyonso ya milayi mpe ya mikuse.
26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD binds up the breach of his people, and heals the stroke of their wound.
Pole ya sanza ekongenga lokola pole ya moyi, mpe pole ya moyi ekongenga makasi koleka mbala sambo lokola pole ya mikolo sambo, na mokolo oyo Yawe akotia kisi na pota ya bato na Ye mpe akobikisa yango.
27 Behold, the name of the LORD comes from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:
Tala, wuta mosika, Kombo ya Yawe ezali koya; kanda na Ye ezali kopela lokola moto elongo na lipata ya molinga ya moto makasi; bibebu na Ye etondi na kanda, mpe lolemo na Ye ezali lokola moto oyo ebomaka.
28 And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to go astray.
Pema na Ye ezali lokola ebale oyo etondi makasi, ebale oyo etondi kino na kingo. Akoyungola bikolo na kiyungulu ya pasi, akotia na mbanga ya bato ebende oyo batiaka na minoko ya bampunda mpo ete emema bango na libunga.
29 All of you shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.
Mpo na bino, bokoyemba banzembo lokola na butu oyo basalaka bafeti ya bule; mitema na bino ekotonda na esengo lokola bato oyo bazali kobeta flite mpo na kokende na Ngomba ya Yawe, na Libanga ya Isalaele.
30 And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.
Yawe akosala ete bato bayoka mongongo na Ye ya nkembo mpe akomonisa bango nguya ya loboko na Ye kati na kanda makasi na Ye, kati na moto oyo ebomaka, kati na mvula makasi ya bakake mpe ya mabanga.
31 For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian be beaten down, which stroke with a rod.
Mongongo ya Yawe ekokweyisa Asiri, mpe akobeta bango na lingenda na Ye ya bokonzi.
32 And in every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with timbrels and harps: and in battles of shaking will he fight with it.
Mbala nyonso oyo Yawe akobeta bango fimbu na Ye ya kosambisa, ekolandisama na mindule ya bambunda mike mpe ya mandanda, ndenge moko mpe tango akoningisa loboko na Ye mpo na kobundisa bango.
33 For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he has made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, does kindle it.
Babongisaki wuta kala Tofeti, babongisaki yango nde mpo na mokonzi; basalaki libulu na yango ya moto mozindo mpe monene mpo ete ebimisa moto makasi mpe ekota bakoni ebele. Pema na Yawe, oyo ezali lokola ebale ya sofolo nde ekopelisa yango.
