Isaiah 22
1 The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?
Maloba na Yawe na tina na lubwaku ya Emoniseli: Likambo nini lisusu ekomeli bino sik’oyo mpo ete bino nyonso bomata na likolo ya mitondo ya ndako?
2 O thou that art full of shoutings, a tumultuous city, a joyous town; thy slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.
Oh engumba etonda na loyenge, engumba etonda na makelele mpe na bisengo! Bibembe na yo ekufi na mopanga te to mpe na bitumba te.
3 All thy rulers fled away together, they were bound by the archers: all that were found of thee were bound together, they fled afar off.
Bakambi na yo nyonso bakimaki elongo; bakangaki bango na basoda na nguya ya tolotolo. Mpe bato na yo, oyo bazalaki kokima monguna na mosika, bakangaki bango mpe bakomaki elongo bakangami.
4 Therefore said I, Look away from me, I will weep bitterly; labour not to comfort me, for the spoiling of the daughter of my people.
Yango wana nalobaki: « Botika kotala Ngai, botika ete nalela makasi! Bomeka kobondisa Ngai te mpo na kobebisama ya bato na Ngai! »
5 For it is a day of discomfiture, and of treading down, and of perplexity, from the Lord, the LORD of hosts, in the valley of vision; a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.
Pamba te ezali mokolo moko ya lokito ya bitumba, mokolo ya pasi makasi mpe ya somo kati na lubwaku ya Emoniseli kowuta na Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga; ezali mokolo oyo mir ya makasi ekobukana mpe makelele ya koganga ekobima na bangomba.
6 And Elam bare the quiver, with chariots of men [and] horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.
Mampinga ya Elami batomboli makonga, mosusu bamati na bashar mpe bampunda; Kiri abimisi nguba.
7 And it came to pass, that thy choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
Lubwaku na yo, oyo eleki kitoko etondi na bashar, mpe basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda batelemi-telemi na bikuke ya engumba;
8 And he took away the covering of Judah; and thou didst look in that day to the armour in the house of the forest.
bibombamelo ya Yuda etikali lisusu te. Na mokolo wana, obalolaki miso na yo na bibundeli oyo ezalaka na Ndako ya Zamba.
9 And ye saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many: and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
Bomonaki ete Engumba ya mokonzi Davidi ezali na madusu mingi kati na mir oyo ezingeli yango; boye bobombaki mayi kati na Liziba oyo ezalaka na se,
10 and ye numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and ye brake down the houses to fortify the wall.
botangaki motango ya bandako ya Yelusalemi, bobukaki mosusu mpo na kolendisa mir ya monene.
11 ye made also a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye looked not unto him that had done this, neither had ye respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.
Bosalaki liziba mpo na kobomba mayi ya liziba ya kala kati na bamir mibale, kasi bobalolaki miso na bino te mpo na kotala Ye oyo asalaki mpe abongisaki yango wuta kala.
12 And in that day did the Lord, the LORD of hosts, call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth:
Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, azalaki kobenga bino na mokolo wana mpo ete bolela mpe bosala matanga, bomikokola suki mpe bolata saki.
13 and behold, joy and gladness, slaying oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine: let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die.
Kasi tala, ezalaki kaka bisengo mpe loyenge, koboma bangombe mpe bameme ya mibali, bantaba ya basi, kolia misuni mpe komela masanga ya vino! Bozalaki koloba: « Tika ete tolia mpe tomela, pamba te, lobi, tokokufa! »
14 And the LORD of hosts revealed himself in mine ears, Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, ayebisaki ngai yango na matoyi na ngai moko penza: « Kino bokokufa, bokotikala kozwa bolimbisi ya lisumu oyo te, » elobi Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
15 Thus saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, which is over the house, [and say],
Tala maloba oyo Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: « Kende kokuta Shebina, mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi, loba na ye:
16 What doest thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out here a sepulchre? hewing him out a sepulchre on high, graving an habitation for himself in the rock!
‹ Ozali kosala nini awa, mpe nani apesi yo nzela ya kotonga kunda na yo awa lokola moto oyo azali kotimola kunda na ye na likolo mpe kotonga epemelo na ye kati na lidusu ya libanga monene?
17 Behold, the LORD will hurl thee away violently as a [strong] man; yea, he will wrap thee up closely.
Tala, Yawe akomi pene ya koningisa yo mpe kobwaka yo mosika, yo moto ya makasi!
18 He will surely turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country; there shalt thou die, and there shall be the chariots of thy glory, thou shame of thy lord’s house.
Akobalola yo ndenge babalolaka ndembo mpe akobwaka yo na etando moko ya monene. Kuna nde okokufa, mpe bashar na yo ya lokumu ekotikala, yo oyo osalaka soni ya ndako ya mokonzi na yo.
19 And I will thrust thee from thine office, and from thy station shall he pull thee down.
Nakolongola yo na mosala, mpe lokumu na yo ekosila.
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:
Na mokolo wana, nakobengisa mosali na Ngai, Eliakimi, mwana mobali ya Ilikia.
21 and I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
Nakolatisa ye nzambala na yo, nakokanga ye mokaba na yo mpe nakopesa bokonzi na yo na maboko na ye. Akozala tata mpo na bavandi ya Yelusalemi mpe mpo na ndako ya Yuda.
22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; and he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
Nakotia fungola ya ndako ya Davidi na mapeka na ye: oyo akofungola, moto moko te akokanga yango; mpe oyo akokanga, moto moko te akofungola yango.
23 And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a throne of glory to his father’s house.
Nakopika ye lokola sete na esika ya malamu; akozala lokola kiti ya bokonzi ya lokumu mpo na ndako ya tata na ye.
24 And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the vessels of cups even to all the vessels of flagons.
Nkembo nyonso ya ndako ya tata na ye ekozala likolo na ye: kobanda na bakitani na ye kino na bana na bango nyonso, lokola bisalelo oyo: kobanda na bakopo ya mike kino na mbeki ya minene.
25 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall, and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it.
Na mokolo wana, elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, sete oyo bapikaki na esika ya malamu ekolongwa, ekobukana mpe ekokweya; mpe mokumba oyo amemaki ekokweya. › » Yawe nde alobaki.
