< Isaiah 55 >

1 Ho, every one of ye that thirsteth, come ye to the water, and he too that hath no money: come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy without money and without price wine and milk.
« Bino nyonso oyo bozali na posa ya komela, boya, boya na esika oyo mayi ezali; ezala bino oyo bozali na mbongo te, boya kosomba mpe kolia; boya kosomba vino mpe miliki: ezali ya ofele, ya kosomba na mbongo te!
2 Wherefore will ye spend money for what is not bread? and your labor for what satisfieth not? hearken then unto me, and eat what is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
Mpo na nini bozali kobebisa mbongo mpo na bilei oyo etongaka nzoto te, mpe kobimisa motoki mpo na bilei oyo etondisaka te? Boyoka, boyoka Ngai mpe bolia bilei ya kitoko, mpe bokosepela na biloko ya elengi.
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me, hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make with you an everlasting covenant, the promised mercies of David, which are sure.
Bopesa Ngai matoyi na bino mpe boya epai na Ngai, boyoka mpe bokozala na bomoi; nakosala boyokani ya libela elongo na bino, boyokani oyo nalakaki Davidi, na boyengebene mpe na bolingo na Ngai.
4 Behold, for a lawgiver unto the people have I appointed him, a prince and commander to the people.
Tala, nakomisaki ye motatoli na Ngai na miso ya bato ya bikolo ebele, mokambi mpe motambolisi ya bato.
5 Behold, a nation thou knowest not shalt thou call, and a nation that knew thee not shall run unto thee; for the sake of the Lord thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for he hath glorified thee.
Solo, okobenga bikolo oyo oyebi te, mpe bikolo oyo eyebi yo te ekoya na lombangu epai na yo mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, mpo na Mosantu ya Isalaele, pamba te alatisi yo nkembo. »
6 Seek ye the Lord, while he may be found, call ye on him, while he is near.
Boluka Yawe wana akoki nanu komonana, bobelela Ye wana azali nanu pene.
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of unrighteousness his thoughts; and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him, and unto our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Tika ete moto mabe atika banzela na ye, mpe tika ete mosumuki atika makanisi na ye; tika ete azonga epai na Yawe mpo ete ayokela ye mawa, tika ete azonga epai ya Nzambe na biso, pamba te alimbisaka kaka.
8 For not my thoughts are your thoughts, and not your ways are my ways, saith the Lord.
« Makanisi na Ngai ezali makanisi na bino te, mpe banzela na Ngai ezali banzela na bino te, » elobi Yawe.
9 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are my ways above your ways, and my thoughts above your thoughts.
« Pamba te ndenge likolo eleki mosika na mabele, ndenge wana mpe banzela na Ngai ezali likolo koleka banzela na bino, mpe makanisi na Ngai ezali likolo koleka makanisi na bino.
10 For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and return not thither, but water the earth, and render it fruitful, and cause it to bring forth plants; and give seed to the sower and bread to him that eateth:
Ndenge mvula mpe mvula ya pembe enokaka wuta na likolo mpe ezongaka te na likolo soki epolisi mabele te, soki ebotisi yango bambuma mpe bafololo te, soki epesi nkona te na moloni mpe bilei te na moto oyo aliaka,
11 So shall ever be my word which goeth forth from my mouth, it shall not return unto me without effect; but it accomplisheth what I desire, and it prospereth in that whereto I have sent it.
ndenge wana mpe liloba oyo ebimaka na monoko na Ngai ezalaka: ezongaka pamba te epai na Ngai, soki esali nanu te mokano na Ngai, mpe soki ekokisi nanu te mabongisi oyo natindelaki yango.
12 For in joy shall ye go out, and in peace shall ye be brought home: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into song, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
Bokobima na esengo, mpe bakotambolisa bino na kimia; bangomba milayi mpe bangomba mikuse ekoyemba nzembo ya elonga liboso na bino, mpe banzete nyonso ya zamba ekobeta maboko.
13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir-tree, and instead of the nettle shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be unto the Lord for a name, for a sign of everlasting that shall not be cut off.
Nzete ya sipele ekobota na esika ya banzube, nzete ya mirite ekobota na esika ya basende; ekozala, mpo na lokumu ya Kombo ya Yawe, elembo ya libela na libela, oyo ekotikala kobebisama te. »
