Isaiah 35
1 The wilderness and the parched land shall be glad, And the desert rejoice and blossom as the rose;
Tika ete esobe mpe mabele ya kokawuka esepela! Tika ete esobe eyoka esengo mpe ebimisa fololo ya motane lokola roze!
2 It shall blossom abundantly, and exult with joy and singing; The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it; The beauty of Carmel and Sharon; They shall behold the glory of Jehovah, The majesty of our God;
Ekobota fololo mingi penza mpe ekosepela, ekosepela mpe ekoganga na esengo. Nkembo ya Libani, lokumu ya Karimeli mpe ya Saroni ekopesamela yango; boye bakomona nkembo ya Yawe, lokumu ya Nzambe na biso.
3 Strengthen ye the weak hands, And confirm the tottering knees!
Pesa makasi na maboko oyo elembi, lendisa mabolongo oyo ezali kolenga;
4 Say ye to the faint-hearted, “Be ye strong; fear ye not; Behold your God! Vengeance cometh, the retribution of God; He will come and save you!”
Loba na bato oyo bazali kobanga: « Bozala makasi, bobanga te, Nzambe na bino akoya, akoya kozongisa mabe na mabe, akoya na lifuti ya Nzambe. Ye moko akoya kobikisa bino. »
5 Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, And the ears of the deaf be unstopped.
Boye, bakufi miso bakomona mpe bakufi matoyi bakoyoka.
6 Then shall the lame leap like the hart, And the tongue of the dumb shall sing; For in the wilderness shall waters break forth, And streams in the desert.
Moto ya tengu-tengu akopumbwa lokola mboloko, mpe lolemo ya baba ekoyemba na esengo. Mayi ekobima na esobe, mpe bibale, na bisika ya kokawuka.
7 The glowing sands shall become a pool, And the thirsty ground springs of water; In the habitation of jackals, where they lie, Shall be a place for reeds and rushes.
Zelo ya esobe ekobongwana liziba ya mayi, mpe mabele ya kokawuka ekokoma bitima ya mayi. Matiti, nzete oyo ebotaka na mayi mpe papirisi ekobota na bisika oyo mbwa ya zamba elalaka.
8 And a path shall be there, and a highway, And it shall be called the holy way; No unclean person shall pass over it; it shall be for them alone; He that therein goeth in this way, though a fool, shall not err therein.
Nzela moko ya monene ekoleka wana, bakobenga yango Balabala ya Bosantu. Moto moko te ya mbindo akoleka wana, pamba te ebongisamaki kaka mpo na bato ya Yawe. Boye ata zoba akoki te kobunga na nzela yango.
9 No lion shall be there, Nor shall any ravenous beast go up thereon; It shall not be found there; But the redeemed shall walk there.
Nkosi ekozala te na nzela yango, ata nyama moko te ya mabe ekoleka na nzela yango, ekotikala komonana kuna te. Kasi basikolami kaka nde bakotambola na nzela yango.
10 Yea, the ransomed of Jehovah shall return; They shall come to Zion with songs: Everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; They shall obtain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
Boye, bakangolami na Yawe bakozonga, bakokota na Siona na nzembo ya elonga, mpe esengo ya suka te ekozala na likolo ya mito na bango lokola mitole. Esengo mpe kosepela ekopesamela bango, nzokande mawa mpe kolela ekosila.
