Isaiah 14
1 For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will again make choice of Israel, and replace them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined unto them, and they shall attach themselves to the house of Jacob.
Yawe akoyokela Jakobi mawa, akopona lisusu Isalaele mpe akopemisa bango na mokili na bango; bongo bapaya bakosangana na bango mpe bakobakisama na ndako ya Jakobi.
2 And nations shall take them, and bring them to their own place; but the house of Israel shall obtain possession of them in the land of the Lord for men-servants and for maid-servants; and they shall take captive their captors, and they shall rule over their oppressors.
Bato ya bikolo bakozwa bango mpe bakomema bango kino na esika na bango. Bongo, libota ya Isalaele ekokamata bango na mokili ya Yawe lokola basali ya mibali mpe ya basi. Bakokomisa bakangami bato oyo bakangaki bango mpe bakokonza bato oyo bakonzaki bango.
3 And it shall come to pass on the day when the Lord will give thee rest from thy trouble, and from thy vexation, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,
Na mokolo oyo Yawe akopesa yo bopemi na mosala na yo, na komitungisa na yo mpe na misala makasi oyo bapesaki yo,
4 That thou wilt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath ceased the oppressor! ceased the exactress of gold!
okoyemba nzembo oyo mpo na kotiola mokonzi ya Babiloni; okoloba: « Ndenge nini monyokoli akomi na suka? Ndenge nini penza lolendo na ye esili?
5 Broken hath the Lord the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of rulers;
Yawe abuki fimbu ya moto mabe, lingenda ya bokonzi ya bakambi,
6 He who smote people in wrath, blows without intermission, he that ruled in anger nations, persecuting without restraint.
oyo azalaki kokweyisa bato na kanda mpe kobeta bango na kolemba te, oyo azalaki kokonza bikolo na kanda makasi mpe konyokola bango na mawa te.
7 At rest, quiet is all the earth; men break forth into loud song.
Mikili nyonso ezwi bopemi mpe kimia, ekomi koganga na esengo.
8 Also, the fir-trees rejoice at thee, the cedars of Lebanon, “Since thou wast laid low, no feller is come up against us.”
Banzete ya sipele ezali kosepela mpo na kokweya na yo, mpe banzete ya sedele ya Libani ezali koloba: ‹ Wuta tango okweyaki na se, moto moko te akweyisaka lisusu biso. ›
9 The nether world from below is in motion concerning thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the departed for thee, all the chief ones of the earth; it hath caused to rise up from their thrones all the kings of nations. (Sheol h7585)
Mokili ya bakufi, kuna na se, eningani na sango ya koya na yo, elamusi, mpo na koyamba yo, milimo ya bakufi, bato nyonso oyo bazalaki bakambi na mokili, etomboli bango, na bakiti na bango ya bokonzi, ba-oyo nyonso bazalaki bakonzi ya bikolo. (Sheol h7585)
10 They all will commence and say unto thee, “Thou—thou also art become weak like us; similar unto us art thou become!”
Bango nyonso bakozwa maloba mpe bakoloba na yo: ‹ Yo mpe okomi moto ya bolembu lokola biso, okokani na biso! ›
11 Into the nether world is brought down thy pride, the clatter of thy psalteries: beneath thee is spread the worm, and thy cover is the moth. (Sheol h7585)
Lokumu na yo nyonso ekiti kino na mokili ya bakufi, elongo na makelele ya mandanda na yo. Nkusu etondi na se na yo lokola mbeto, mpe mitsopi ezipi yo lokola elamba. (Sheol h7585)
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O morning-star, son of the dawn! how art thou hewn down to the ground, crusher of nations!
Ndenge nini penza okweyi wuta na likolo, oh monzoto oyo engengaka na tongo, mwana mobali ya tongo makasi? Bakweyisi yo penza kino na mabele, yo moto oyo ozalaki kopanza bikolo!
13 And thou—thou hadst said in thy heart, “Into heaven will I ascend, above the stars of God will I exalt my throne; and I will sit also upon the mount of the assembly, in the farthest end of the north;
Ozalaki komilobela kati na motema: ‹ Nakomata kino na Lola, nakotombola kiti na ngai ya bokonzi kino na likolo ya minzoto ya Nzambe mpe nakovanda na ngomba epai wapi banzambe basanganaka, na suka ya mokili ya ngambo ya nor;
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be equal to the Most High.”
nakomata kino na likolo ya mapata, nakomikomisa lokola Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo. ›
Kasi okiti nde na mokili ya bakufi, na se penza ya libulu. (Sheol h7585)
16 They that see thee will gaze at thee, will regard thee well, [saying, ] “Is this the man that caused the earth to tremble, that made kingdoms quake?
Bato oyo bazali komona yo batie miso na bango epai na yo, bazali komituna: ‹ Boni, ezali penza ye oyo azalaki koningisa mokili mpe kolengisa bikolo?
17 That rendered the world as a wilderness, and pulled down its cities: never opened the prison-house of his prisoners?”
Moto oyo azalaki kokomisa mokili esobe, kokweyisa bingumba na yango mpe kotika te ete bakangami na ye bazonga epai na bango? ›
18 All the kings of nations, all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own [eternal] house.
Bakonzi nyonso ya bikolo balalaka na lokumu, moko na moko kati na kunda na ye;
19 But thou—thou art cast out of thy grave like a discarded offshoot, as a garment of those that are slain, pierced by the sword, that go down to the stones of the pit, as a carcass trodden under foot.
kasi yo obwakami mosika ya kunda na yo lokola kaka eloko moko ya nkele, kati na bibembe ya bato oyo baboma, bato oyo batobola bango na mopanga, bongo bakiti kino na libulu ya mabanga lokola bibembe oyo banyata na makolo.
20 Thou shalt not be united with them in burial; because thy land hast thou destroyed, thy people hast thou slain: to eternity shall not be called the seed of evil-doers.
Okotikala kosangana na bango te kati na kunda, pamba te obebisaki mokili na yo mpe obomaki bato na yo. Bakotikala lisusu kotanga te bakombo ya bakitani ya bato mabe.
21 Prepare for his children the slaughter, for the iniquity of their fathers: that they may not rise, and possess the land, and fill the face of the world with enemies [of mankind].
Bobongisa esika mpo na koboma bana na ye ya mibali likolo ya masumu ya batata na bango! Tika ete balamuka lisusu te mpo na kozwa mabele lokola libula mpe kotondisa mokili elongo na bingumba na bango.
22 And I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts; and I will cut off from Babylon name, and remnant, and son, and grandson, saith the Lord.
Nakotelemela bango, » elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, « nakolongola kombo ya Babiloni mpe nyonso oyo ekotikala, bana mpe bakitani na yango, elobi Yawe.
23 I will also make it a possession for the hedgehog, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the Lord of hosts.
Nakokomisa yango esika ya potopoto mpe lopango ya bampuku; mpe nakokombola yango na nzela ya ekombelo ya libebi, » elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
24 Sworn hath the Lord of hosts, saying, Surely as I have purposed, so doth it come to pass; and as I have resolved, so shall it occur:
Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alapi ndayi: « Solo, ndenge kaka nabongisi, ndenge wana mpe ekosalema; makambo oyo nazali na yango na makanisi, yango nde ekokokisama.
25 To break Asshur in my own land, and upon my mountains will I tread him under foot; then shall his yoke be removed from off them, and his burden from off their shoulders.
Nakobebisa mokili ya Asiri kati na mokili na Ngai, nakonyata-nyata yango na likolo ya bangomba na Ngai; ekangiseli na bango ekolongwa epai ya bato na Ngai mpe mokumba na bango ekolongwa na mapeka na bango. »
26 This is the resolve that is resolved over all the earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
Yango nde mokano oyo Yawe asili kozwa mpo na mokili mobimba, mpe yango nde loboko oyo asili kosembola mpo na kotelemela bikolo nyonso.
27 For the Lord of hosts hath resolved, and who shall frustrate it? and it is his hand which is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
Pamba te Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, asili kozwa mokano; bongo nani akolongola yango? Loboko na Ye esili kosembolama; nani akozongisa yango?
28 In the year king Achaz died was this prophecy [given].
Maloba oyo eyaki na mobu oyo mokonzi Akazi akufaki:
29 Rejoice not, thou entire Palestine, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken; for out of the serpent's root shall come forth an adder, and its fruit shall be a flying dragon.
« Bino bato nyonso ya Filisitia, bosepela te ete fimbu oyo ezalaki kobeta bino esili kobukana, pamba te etupa ebimaka na libumu ya nyoka, mpe dalagona oyo epumbwaka ebimaka na libumu ya nyoka mabe.
30 And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall rest in safety: and I will kill with famine thy root, and men shall slay thy remnant.
Ye oyo aleki mobola nde akozwa eloko ya kolia, mpe moto oyo akelela nde akolala na kimia; kasi nakoboma bato na yo na nzala; mpe bato oyo bakobika, bakoboma bango.
31 Wail, O gate; cry out, O city; thou art dissolved, O thou entire Palestine; for from the north a smoke is coming, and there is no one solitary among those that are bidden to come.
Oh ekuke, lela makasi! Engumba, ganga makasi! Mokili mobimba ya Filisitia esili kozinda! Milinga makasi ezali kobima na ngambo ya nor, mpe moto moko te atikali na libanda ya molongo.
32 And what will each one of the messengers of the nation answer? That the Lord hath founded Zion; and that therein shall find protection the poor of his people.
Eyano nini tokopesa penza epai ya bamemi sango ya ekolo oyo? Ezali ete Yawe asili kolendisa Siona mpo ete babola kati na bato na Ye basili kozwa ebombamelo ya malonga. »
