Isaiah 45
1 Adonai says to his anointed, to Cyrus [Sun], whose right hand I have held, to subdue nations before him, and strip kings of their armor; to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut:
« Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi epai ya Sirisi, mopakolami na Ye, oyo Yawe asimbi loboko na ye ya mobali mpo na kokweyisa bikolo nyonso liboso na ye mpe kolongola mikaba wuta na baloketo ya bakonzi, mpo na kofungola bikuke liboso na ye mpo ete bikuke yango ekangama te:
2 “I will go before you, and make the rough places smooth. I will break the doors of bronze in pieces, and cut apart the bars of iron.
Nakotambola liboso na yo mpe nakolalisa bangomba, nakobuka bikuke ya bronze mpe nakokata-kata bibende oyo bakangelaka yango.
3 I will give you the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, Adonai, who call you by your name, even the God of Israel [God prevails].
Nakopesa yo bomengo oyo babomba na molili, bozwi oyo batia na bisika ebombama, mpo okoka koyeba ete Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo abengi yo na kombo na yo.
4 For Jacob [Supplanter] my servant’s sake, and Israel [God prevails] my chosen, I have called you by your name. I have given you a title, though you have not known me.
Mpo na bolingo ya Jakobi, mosali na Ngai, mpe Isalaele, moponami na Ngai, nabengi yo na kombo na yo, napesi yo kombo ya lokumu atako oyebi Ngai nanu te.
5 I am Yahweh [He sustains breathing], and there is no one else. Besides me, there are no elohim ·gods, judges·. I will strengthen you, though you have not known me;
Nazali Yawe, mosusu azali te; Nzambe mosusu azali te, soki Ngai te. Nalatisi yo mokaba na loketo atako oyebi Ngai nanu te;
6 that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is no one besides me. I am Yahweh [He sustains breathing], and there is no one else.
mpo ete, longwa na ngambo ya este kino na ngambo ya weste, bato bayeba ete mosusu azali te, bobele Ngai nde nazali Nzambe. Nazali Yawe, mosusu azali te.
7 I form the light, and create darkness. I make peace, and create calamity. I am Adonai, who does all these things.
Nasalaka pole mpe nakelaka molili, napesaka kimia mpe nakelaka pasi; Ngai Yawe nde nasalaka makambo oyo nyonso.
8 Rain, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open, that it may produce yesha' ·salvation·, and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it. I, Adonai, have created it.
Yo, Lola kuna na likolo, nokisa bosembo lokola mvula, tika ete mapata ekitisa yango! Tika ete mabele efungwama mpo ete lobiko ebima; tika ete bosembo ekola nzela moko! Ezali Ngai Yawe nde nakelaki yango.
9 Woe to him who strives with his Maker— a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth! Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, ‘What are you making?’ or your work, ‘He has no hands?’
Mawa na ye oyo abetaka tembe na Mokeli na ye, ye oyo azali kaka mbeki kati na bambeki ya mabele! Boni, potopoto ekoki solo koloba na moto oyo asali yango: ‹ Ozali kosala nini? › Mpe mosala ya maboko na yo ekoki solo koloba: ‹ Azali na maboko te? ›
10 Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What have you become the father of?’ or to a mother, ‘To what have you given birth?’”
Mawa na ye oyo alobaka na tata na ye: ‹ Mpo na nini obotaki ngai? › Mpe na mama na ye: ‹ Mpo na nini obotaki ngai? ›
11 Adonai, haKadosh Isra'el [the Holy One of God prevails], and his Maker says: “You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons, and you enjoin me concerning the work of my hands!
Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Mosantu ya Isalaele mpe Mokeli na ye, alobi: Boni, bino nde bato bokotuna Ngai soki nakosala nini mpo na bana na Ngai na mikolo oyo ekoya to bino nde bato bokopesa Ngai mitindo mpo na mosala oyo maboko na Ngai esali?
12 I have made the earth, and created man on it. I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens; and I have enjoined all their army.
Ngai nde nasala mabele mpe nakela bato kati na yango; loboko na Ngai moko nde etandaki likolo lokola liputa mpe etiaki mampinga na yango nyonso na molongo.
13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make straight all his ways. He shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward,” says Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies].
Nakobimisa Sirisi na bosembo na Ngai; nakokomisa nzela na ye nyonso alima. Akotonga lisusu engumba na Ngai mpe akopesa bonsomi na bakangami na Ngai; ekozala na motuya ya mbongo to ya biloko te, elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga. »
14 Yahweh [He sustains breathing] says: “The labor of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to you, and they shall be yours. They will go after you. They shall come over in chains; and they will bow down to you. They will make supplication to you: ‘Surely God is in you; and there is no one else. There is no other Elohim ·Deity, Judge·.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Mosala ya Ejipito, mombongo ya Kushi mpe bato milayi ya Seba, bakoleka epai na yo mpe bakozala ya yo. Bakotambola ya kokangama na minyololo, sima na yo; bakofukama liboso na yo mpe bakobondela yo na maloba oyo: ‹ Solo, Nzambe azali penza epai na yo, nzambe mosusu azali te! › »
15 Most certainly you are a God who hidden yourself, God of Israel [God prevails], the One who saves.’”
Solo, ozali Nzambe oyo amibombaka, Nzambe, Mobikisi ya Isalaele!
16 They will be disappointed, yes, confounded, all of them. Those who are makers of idols will go into confusion together.
Bato nyonso oyo basalaka banzambe ya bikeko bakoyoka soni mpe bakosambwa; bango nyonso, bakokende na soni.
17 Israel [God prevails] will be saved by Adonai with an everlasting salvation. You will not be disappointed nor confounded to ages everlasting.
Kasi Yawe akobikisa Isalaele na lobiko ya seko na seko. Bokotikalaka lisusu koyoka soni te mpe kosambwa te, libela na libela.
18 For Adonai who created the heavens, the God who formed the earth and made it, who established it and didn’t create it a waste, who formed it to be inhabited says: “I am Yahweh [He sustains breathing]; and there is no other.
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi, Ye oyo akela likolo, Ye oyo azali Nzambe oyo asala mpe abongisa mabele, mpe atelemisa yango ngwi; Ye akelaki yango te mpo ete ezala pamba, kasi asalaki yango mpo ete bato bavanda: « Nazali Yawe, mpe mosusu azali te.
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness. I didn’t say to the offspring of Jacob [Supplanter], ‘Seek me in vain.’ I, Adonai, speak righteousness. I declare things that are right.
Nalobaki na nkuku te, kati na esika moko te ya molili ya mokili; nalobaki te na bakitani ya Jakobi: ‹ Boluka Ngai kati na pamba! › Nazali Yawe, nalobaka oyo ezali sembo, nasakolaka oyo ezali alima.
20 “Assemble yourselves and come. Draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. Those have no knowledge who carry the wood of their engraved image, and pray to a deity that can’t save.
Bosangana elongo mpe boya, bopusana elongo bino nyonso, bino bato oyo bobiki kati na bikolo! Bato oyo bamemaka banzambe ya bikeko basala na nzete mpe babelelaka nzambe oyo ebikisaka te; bazangi boyebi.
21 Declare and present it. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has sh'ma ·heard obeyed, declared· this from ancient time? Who has declared it of old? Haven’t I, Yahweh [He sustains breathing]? There is no other Elohim ·Deity, Judge· besides me, a just God and able to save; There is no one besides me.
Botelema mpe bopesa sango, boloba makambo na bino mpe tosamba elongo! Nani asakolaki yango wuta kala mpe atatolaki yango wuta na tango oyo eleka? Ezali Ngai Yawe te? Ezali na Nzambe mosusu te, soki Ngai te. Nazali Nzambe ya sembo mpe Mobikisi; mosusu azali te, soki Ngai te.
22 “Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.
Bozonga epai na Ngai mpo ete bobika, bino nyonso oyo bozali na basuka ya mokili; pamba te Ngai, nazali Nzambe, mpe mosusu azali te.
23 I have sworn by myself. The word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and will not be revoked, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear
Nalapi ndayi na Kombo na Ngai; oyo ezali sembo ebimaka na monoko na Ngai, liloba oyo bakoki koboya te: mabolongo nyonso ekofukama liboso na Ngai, mpe minoko nyonso ekolapa ndayi na Kombo na Ngai.
24 about me, ‘There is righteousness and strength only in Adonai.’” Even to him shall men come; and all those who raged against him shall be disappointed.
Bakoloba na tina na Ngai: ‹ Makasi mpe bosembo ezali kati na Yawe kaka. › » Bato nyonso oyo batombokelaki Ye bakoya epai na Ye mpe bakoyoka soni.
25 All the offspring of Israel [God prevails] will be justified in Adonai, and will rejoice!
Ezali kati na Yawe nde bato nyonso oyo bazali bakitani ya Isalaele bakokoma bato ya sembo mpe bakozwa lokumu.
