Isaiah 5
1 Let me sing for my well beloved a song of my beloved about his vineyard. My beloved had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill.
Nakoyemba loyembo mpo na molingami na ngai, loyembo ya molingami na ngai mpo na elanga na ye ya vino. Molingami na ngai azalaki na elanga moko ya vino kati na mabele kitoko oyo ezalaka na mopanzi ya ngomba;
2 He dug it up, gathered out its stones, planted it with the choicest vine, built a tower in its midst, and also cut out a winepress in it. He looked for it to yield grapes, but it yielded wild grapes.
abalolaki mabele, alongolaki mabanga, mpe alonaki vino ya kitoko koleka; atongaki kuna ndako molayi ya bakengeli mpe atimolaki ekamolelo ya vino. Akanisaki ete akobuka bambuma ya vino ya kitoko, kasi ebotelaki ye bambuma ya mabe!
3 "Now, inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, please judge between me and my vineyard.
Sik’oyo, bino bavandi ya Yelusalemi, bato ya Yuda, bokata makambo kati na ngai mpe elanga na ngai ya vino!
4 What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? Why, when I looked for it to yield grapes, did it yield wild grapes?
Nasala penza eloko nini, mpo na elanga na ngai ya vino, oyo natikala nanu kosalela yango te? Mpo na nini eboteli ngai bambuma ya mabe, tango ngai nakanisaki ete ekobotela ngai bambuma ya malamu?
5 Now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard. I will take away its hedge, and it will be eaten up. I will break down its wall of it, and it will be trampled down.
Sik’oyo, nakoloba na bino makambo oyo nakosala na elanga na ngai ya vino: Nakokweyisa lopango na yango, mpe ekobebisama; nakotobola madusu kati na bamir na yango, mpe baleki nzela bakokoma konyata-nyata yango.
6 I will lay it a wasteland. It won't be pruned nor hoed, but it will grow briers and thorns. I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain on it."
Nakokomisa yango esobe: kati na yango, bakolongola lisusu te, ezala mabanga to matiti; bongo banzube mpe basende ekokola kuna. Nakopesa mitindo na mapata ete enokisela yango lisusu mvula te.
7 For the vineyard of YHWH of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for justice, but, look, oppression; for righteousness, but, look, a cry of distress.
Nzokande, elanga ya vino ya Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, ezali nde libota ya Isalaele, mpe bato ya Yuda bazali elanga oyo ezalaki kosepelisa Ye. Azalaki kozela bosembo, kasi amonaki nde makila; makambo ya alima, kasi ayokaki nde kolela ya pasi.
8 Woe to those who join house to house, who lay field to field, until there is no room, and you are made to dwell alone in the midst of the land.
Mawa na bino bato oyo bobakisaka ndako likolo ya ndako, elanga pembeni ya elanga, kino bokangaka bisika nyonso mpe botikalaka kaka bino moko na mokili!
9 In my ears, YHWH of hosts says: "Surely many houses will be desolate, even great and beautiful, unoccupied.
Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobaki na ngai: « Solo, bandako minene ekotikala pamba, bandako kitoko ekozanga bato ya kovanda kati na yango.
10 For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a homer of seed shall yield an ephah."
Pamba te elanga ya vino ya ba-ekitare mibale ekobimisa kaka bisangala minei ya vino, bakilo nkama mibale na tuku mibale ya milona ya ble ekobimisa kaka bakilo tuku mibale na mibale. »
11 Woe to those who rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; who stay late into the night, until wine inflames them.
Mawa na bato oyo balamukaka na tongo-tongo mpo na kowumela liboso ya masanga ya vino kino na butu, kino tango bakolangwa masanga!
12 The harp, lyre, tambourine, and flute, with wine, are at their feasts; but they do not regard the work of YHWH, neither have they considered the operation of his hands.
Bazali na mandanda, banzenze, masanga ya vino, bambunda mike mpe baflite mpo na kosepelisa bafeti na bango, kasi bakanisaka te mosala na Yawe mpe bazalaka na limemia te mpo na misala ya maboko na Ye.
13 Therefore my people go into captivity for lack of knowledge. Their honorable men are famished, and their multitudes are parched with thirst.
Yango wana, bato na Ngai bakokende na bowumbu mpo na kozanga boyebi; bato na bango ya lokumu bakokufa na nzala, mpe bato pamba bakokufa na posa ya mayi.
14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged its desire, and opened its mouth without measure; and their glory, their multitude, their pomp, and he who rejoices among them, descend into it. (Sheol h7585)
Boye, mboka ya bakufi ekoyoka nzala makasi mpe ekofungola monoko na yango makasi; bato ya lokumu elongo na bato pamba ya engumba bakokita kuna nzela moko mpe na loyenge na bango. (Sheol h7585)
15 So man is brought low, mankind is humbled, and the eyes of the arrogant ones are humbled;
Moto akokitisama, bato ya mokili bakoyokisama soni, mpe bilongi ya bato ya lolendo ekotala na se.
16 but YHWH of hosts is exalted in justice, and God the Holy One is sanctified in righteousness.
Kasi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, akonetolama na nzela ya bosembo na Ye, mpe Nzambe Mosantu akolakisa bosantu na Ye na nzela ya boyengebene na Ye.
17 Then the lambs will graze as in their pasture, and kids will eat the ruins of the rich.
Bameme ekokoma kolia matiti lokola nde ezali kati na elanga na yango moko, bapaya bakozwa bomengo oyo bazwi bakotika.
18 Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, and wickedness as with cart rope;
Mawa na bato oyo babendaka masumu na basinga ya makambo ya lokuta, mpe mabe lokola nde bazali kobenda shario na basheni!
19 Who say, "Let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it; and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it."
Mawa na bato oyo balobaka: « Tika ete Nzambe asala noki, tika ete asala na lombangu mosala na Ye mpo ete tomona yango! Tika ete mabongisi ya Mosantu ya Isalaele ebelema mpe ekokisama mpo ete tokoka koyeba yango! »
20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter.
Mawa na bato oyo babengaka mabe malamu mpe malamu mabe, oyo bamonaka molili lokola pole mpe pole lokola molili, oyo bamonaka bololo lokola elengi mpe elengi lokola bololo!
21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight.
Mawa na bato oyo bamimonaka lokola bato ya bwanya na miso na bango moko, mpe na bato oyo bamimonaka lokola bato ya mayele na miso na bango moko!
22 Woe to those who are mighty to drink wine, and champions at mixing strong drink;
Mawa na bato oyo bakenda sango ya komela vino mpe ya kosangisa masanga ya makasi:
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice for the innocent.
bazwaka kanyaka mpo na kolongisa moto mabe mpe bazangisaka na moto ya sembo bosembo na ye!
24 Therefore as the tongue of fire devours the stubble, and as the dry grass sinks down in the flame, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust; because they have rejected the law of YHWH of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
Yango wana, ndenge ndemo ya moto ezikisaka matiti, mpe ndenge matiti ya kokawuka esilaka na moto, ndenge wana mpe misisa na bango ekopola mpe bafololo na bango ekopumbwa lokola putulu, pamba te babwakaki Mobeko na Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, mpe batiolaki liloba ya Mosantu ya Isalaele.
25 Therefore YHWH's anger burns against his people, and he has stretched out his hand against them, and has struck them. The mountains tremble, and their dead bodies are as refuse in the midst of the streets. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is still stretched out.
Yango wana, Yawe atombokeli bato na Ye, asemboli loboko na Ye mpe abeti bango; bangomba eningani, bibembe na bango etondi lokola bafulu na balabala. Kasi ata bongo, kanda na Ye ekiti kaka te, loboko na Ye etikali kaka ya kosembolama.
26 He will lift up a banner to the nations from far, and he will whistle for them from the far regions of the earth. Look, they will come speedily and swiftly.
Yawe atomboli bendele mpo na bikolo oyo ezali mosika, azali kobeta piololo mpo na kobenga bato oyo bazali na suka ya mokili: tala bango wana, bazali koya na lombangu mpe noki!
27 None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the belt of their waist be untied, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:
Moko te kati na bango asili kolemba nzoto to abeti libaku, moko te azali konimba to kolala pongi. Moko te alongoli mokaba na ye na loketo, singa moko te ya basapato na bango etikali kokatana.
28 whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent. Their horses' hoofs will be like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind.
Bambanzi na bango ezali songe, batolotolo na bango nyonso ebendana makasi; makolo ya bampunda na bango ezali lokola mabanga, bapine ya bashar na bango ezali lokola mopepe makasi.
29 Their roaring will be like a lioness. They will roar like young lions. Yes, they shall roar, and seize their prey and carry it off, and there will be no one to deliver.
Koganga na bango ezali lokola koganga ya bankosi: bagangaka lokola bana nkosi, bagangaka soki bakangi nyama na bango, bamemaka yango na esika ya kimia, mpe moto moko te akokaka kobotola bango yango.
30 They will roar against them in that day like the roaring of the sea. If one looks to the land look, darkness and distress. The light is darkened in its clouds.
Na mokolo wana, bakoganga likolo na bango lokola makelele ya ebale monene. Mpe soki moto atali kati na mokili, akomona molili mpe minyoko: pole ekozipama na se ya mapata.
