Isaiah 54
1 Shout in triumph, O barren one, Who hadst not borne, —Break forth into shouts of triumph—and trill thy voice, Who hadst not travailed in birth, For, more, are the children of the Desolate Than the children of Her who had the husband, Saith Yahweh.
Oh mwasi ekomba, yemba nzembo na esengo, yo oyo obotaka te! Yemba nzembo mpe ganga na esengo, yo mwasi oyo oyoki nanu pasi ya kobota te! Pamba te bana ya mwasi oyo basundola bakozala ebele koleka bana ya mwasi ya libala, elobi Yawe.
2 Enlarge the space of thy tent And the curtains of thy habitations, let them spread forth do not spare, —Lengthen thy cords, And thy tent-pins, make thou fast;
Yeisa ndako na yo ya kapo monene, bakisa bakapo na ndako yango mpo ete eya monene; kokanga motema te! Benda na molayi basinga na yo mpe pika banzete na yo makasi!
3 For, on the right hand and on the left, shalt thou break forth, —And thy seed, shall of the nations, take possession, And forsaken cities, shall they cause to be inhabited.
Pamba te okofungwama na ngambo ya loboko na yo ya mobali mpe na ngambo ya loboko na yo ya mwasi; bakitani na yo bakokonza bikolo mosusu mpe bakosala ete bato bavanda lisusu na bingumba na bango oyo etikalaki lisusu na bato te.
4 Do not fear for thou shalt not turn pale, Neither feel disgraced for thou shalt not be put to the blush, —For, the shame of thy youth, shalt thou forget, And the reproach of thy widowhood, shalt thou remember no more;
Kobanga te, pamba te okoyoka lisusu soni te! Kozala na mawa te, pamba te okotiolama lisusu te! Okobosana soni ya bolenge na yo mpe okokanisa lisusu te pasi na yo ya kokufisa mobali;
5 For, thy husband, is, thy Maker, Yahweh of hosts, is his Name, —And, thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, The God of all the earth, shall he be called.
pamba te Mokeli na yo nde mobali na yo, Kombo na Ye: Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga; Mosantu ya Isalaele azali Mosikoli na yo; babengaka Ye: Nzambe ya mokili mobimba.
6 For, like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, hath Yahweh called thee, —Even the wife of youthful days, in that thou wast rejected saith thy God.
Pamba te Yawe abengi yo lisusu lokola mwasi oyo basundola, bongo azali na pasi na motema. Ndenge nini bakoki solo kosundola mwasi oyo babala na bolenge, elobi Nzambe na yo?
7 For a small moment, I forsook thee, —But, with abounding compassions, do I embrace thee:
Nasundolaki yo kaka mpo na tango moke; kasi na bolingo nyonso, nakozongisa yo.
8 In an overflow of vexation, I hid my face for a moment, from thee, But, with lovingkindness age-abiding, have I had compassion on thee, —saith thy Redeemer Yahweh.
Mpo ete nazalaki na kanda makasi, nabombelaki yo elongi na Ngai kaka mpo na tango moke; kasi nakolakisa yo bolamu mpo na bolingo oyo ezangi suka, elobi Yawe, Mosikoli na yo.
9 For, the waters of Noah, is this unto me, —As to which I sware that the waters of Noah should not again pass over the earth, So have I sworn Not to be vexed with thee Nor to rebuke thee.
Na miso na Ngai, ezali lokola na mikolo ya Noa, tango nalapaki ndayi ete mayi ya Noa ekozindisa lisusu mabele te. Boye, nalapi solo ndayi sik’oyo ete nakosilikela yo lisusu te mpe nakopamela yo lisusu te.
10 For, the mountains, may move away, And the hills, may be shaken, —But, my lovingkindness, from thee, shall not move away, And, my covenant of peace, shall not be shaken, saith he who hath compassion upon thee—Yahweh.
Ata bangomba milayi eningani, ata bangomba mikuse elongwe na bisika na yango, bolingo na Ngai epai na yo ekoningana te, mpe boyokani na Ngai ya kimia ekotikala kolongwa te, elobi Yawe oyo alingaka yo.
11 O thou humbled one storm-tossed, uncomforted, —Lo! I, am about to set in antimony, thy stones, And will found thee in sapphires;
Oh engumba ya mawa, engumba oyo mopepe makasi esili kobuka mpe ezangeli kobondisama, nakotonga yo lisusu na mabanga ya talo mpe nakosala miboko na yo na mabanga ya safiri,
12 And make rubies, thy battlements, And thy gates, sparkling stones, —And, all thy boundaries, stones of delight;
nakotonga bamir ya lopango na yo na mabanga ya ribi, nakosala bikuke na yo na biloko ya ngelingeli, mpe bamir na yo nyonso, na mabanga ya talo.
13 And, all thy children, shall be the instructed of Yahweh, —And, great, shall be the prosperity of thy children.
Yawe akoteya bana na yo nyonso, mpe kimia ya bana na yo ekozala monene.
14 In righteousness, shalt thou be established, —Be thou far from oppression—But indeed thou shalt not fear, And from crushing calamity—But indeed it shall not come nigh unto thee.
Okolendisama kati na bosembo: minyoko ekozala mosika na yo, okobanga lisusu eloko moko te, mpe somo ekokende mosika na yo; ekomeka kopusana lisusu pene na yo te.
15 Lo! they would, quarrel, with thee—not at all from me, —Whoso hath quarrelled with thee, over thee, shall fall.
Soki babundisi yo, ekowuta epai na Ngai te; moto nyonso oyo akobundisa yo akokweya liboso na yo.
16 Lo! I, have created the smith, who bloweth up a fire of coals, And who bringeth forth an instrument for his work, —And, I, have created the waster to destroy:
Tala, ezali Ngai nde nakelaki monyangwisi bibende na moto oyo apelisaka moto makasi na makala mpe asalaka ebundeli mpo ete esala mosala na yango. Ezali mpe kaka Ngai nde nakelaki mobebisi mpo ete asala mosala ya kobebisa.
17 No instrument formed against thee, shall prosper, And every tongue that riseth against thee in judgment, shalt thou prove to be lawless, —This is the inheritance of the servants of Yahweh. And, their righteousness, is from me, Declareth Yahweh.
Nzokande, ebundeli moko te oyo esalemi mpo na kosala yo mabe ekolonga; mpe monoko nyonso oyo ekotelemela yo na kosambisa, okokatela yango etumbu. Yango nde ekozala libula ya basali ya Yawe, mpe elonga na bango kowuta epai na Ngai, elobi Yawe.
