Esias 54
1 Rejoice, you barren that bear not; break forth and cry, you that do not travail: for more are the children of the desolate than of her that has a husband: for the Lord has said,
Oh mwasi ekomba, yemba nzembo na esengo, yo oyo obotaka te! Yemba nzembo mpe ganga na esengo, yo mwasi oyo oyoki nanu pasi ya kobota te! Pamba te bana ya mwasi oyo basundola bakozala ebele koleka bana ya mwasi ya libala, elobi Yawe.
2 Enlarge the place of your tent, and of your curtains: fix [the pins], spare not, lengthen your cords, and strengthen your pins;
Yeisa ndako na yo ya kapo monene, bakisa bakapo na ndako yango mpo ete eya monene; kokanga motema te! Benda na molayi basinga na yo mpe pika banzete na yo makasi!
3 spread forth [your tent] yet to the right and the left: for your seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and you shall make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
Pamba te okofungwama na ngambo ya loboko na yo ya mobali mpe na ngambo ya loboko na yo ya mwasi; bakitani na yo bakokonza bikolo mosusu mpe bakosala ete bato bavanda lisusu na bingumba na bango oyo etikalaki lisusu na bato te.
4 Fear not, because you has been put to shame, neither be confounded, because you was reproached: for you shall forget your former shame, and shall no more at all remember the reproach of your widowhood.
Kobanga te, pamba te okoyoka lisusu soni te! Kozala na mawa te, pamba te okotiolama lisusu te! Okobosana soni ya bolenge na yo mpe okokanisa lisusu te pasi na yo ya kokufisa mobali;
5 For [it is] the Lord that made you; the Lord of hosts is his name: and he that delivered you, he is the God of Israel, [and] shall be called [so] by the whole earth.
pamba te Mokeli na yo nde mobali na yo, Kombo na Ye: Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga; Mosantu ya Isalaele azali Mosikoli na yo; babengaka Ye: Nzambe ya mokili mobimba.
6 The Lord has not called you as a deserted and faint-hearted woman, nor as a woman hated from [her] youth, says your God.
Pamba te Yawe abengi yo lisusu lokola mwasi oyo basundola, bongo azali na pasi na motema. Ndenge nini bakoki solo kosundola mwasi oyo babala na bolenge, elobi Nzambe na yo?
7 For a little while I left you: but with great mercy will I have compassion upon you.
Nasundolaki yo kaka mpo na tango moke; kasi na bolingo nyonso, nakozongisa yo.
8 In a little wrath I turned away my face from you; but with everlasting mercy will I have compassion upon you, says the Lord that delivers you.
Mpo ete nazalaki na kanda makasi, nabombelaki yo elongi na Ngai kaka mpo na tango moke; kasi nakolakisa yo bolamu mpo na bolingo oyo ezangi suka, elobi Yawe, Mosikoli na yo.
9 From the time of the water of Noe this is my [purpose]: as I sware to him at that time, [saying] of the earth, I will no more be angry with you, neither when you are threatened,
Na miso na Ngai, ezali lokola na mikolo ya Noa, tango nalapaki ndayi ete mayi ya Noa ekozindisa lisusu mabele te. Boye, nalapi solo ndayi sik’oyo ete nakosilikela yo lisusu te mpe nakopamela yo lisusu te.
10 shall the mountains depart, nor shall your hills be removed: so neither shall my mercy fail you, nor shall the covenant of your peace be at all removed: for the Lord [who is] gracious to you has spoken [it].
Ata bangomba milayi eningani, ata bangomba mikuse elongwe na bisika na yango, bolingo na Ngai epai na yo ekoningana te, mpe boyokani na Ngai ya kimia ekotikala kolongwa te, elobi Yawe oyo alingaka yo.
11 Afflicted and outcast you has not been comforted: behold, I [will] prepare carbuncle [for] your stones, and sapphire for your foundations;
Oh engumba ya mawa, engumba oyo mopepe makasi esili kobuka mpe ezangeli kobondisama, nakotonga yo lisusu na mabanga ya talo mpe nakosala miboko na yo na mabanga ya safiri,
12 and I will make your buttresses jasper, and your gates crystal, and your border precious stones.
nakotonga bamir ya lopango na yo na mabanga ya ribi, nakosala bikuke na yo na biloko ya ngelingeli, mpe bamir na yo nyonso, na mabanga ya talo.
13 And [I will cause] all your sons [to be] taught of God, and your children [to be] in great peace.
Yawe akoteya bana na yo nyonso, mpe kimia ya bana na yo ekozala monene.
14 And you shall be built in righteousness: abstain from injustice, and you shall not fear; and trembling shall not come near you.
Okolendisama kati na bosembo: minyoko ekozala mosika na yo, okobanga lisusu eloko moko te, mpe somo ekokende mosika na yo; ekomeka kopusana lisusu pene na yo te.
15 Behold, strangers shall come to you by me, and shall sojourn with you, and shall run to you for refuge.
Soki babundisi yo, ekowuta epai na Ngai te; moto nyonso oyo akobundisa yo akokweya liboso na yo.
16 Behold, I have created you, not as the coppersmith blowing coals, and bringing out a vessel [fit] for work; but I have created you, not for ruin, that [I] should destroy [you].
Tala, ezali Ngai nde nakelaki monyangwisi bibende na moto oyo apelisaka moto makasi na makala mpe asalaka ebundeli mpo ete esala mosala na yango. Ezali mpe kaka Ngai nde nakelaki mobebisi mpo ete asala mosala ya kobebisa.
17 I will not suffer any weapon formed against you to prosper; and every voice that shall rise up against you for judgment, you shall vanquish them all; and your adversaries shall be [condemned] thereby. There is an inheritance to them that serve the Lord, and you shall be righteous before me, says the Lord.
Nzokande, ebundeli moko te oyo esalemi mpo na kosala yo mabe ekolonga; mpe monoko nyonso oyo ekotelemela yo na kosambisa, okokatela yango etumbu. Yango nde ekozala libula ya basali ya Yawe, mpe elonga na bango kowuta epai na Ngai, elobi Yawe.
