< Isaiah 56 >
1 Thus, saith Yahweh, Observe ye justice, And execute righteousness, —For near, is My salvation, to come in, and My righteousness to be revealed.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Botambola na alima mpe bosala kolanda bosembo, pamba te lobiko na Ngai ekomi pene mpe bosembo na Ngai ekomi pene ya komonisama.
2 How happy the frail man, who doeth this! Yea the son of the earth-born who firmly graspeth it! Keeping the sabbath lest he profane it, and Keeping his own hand from doing any wrong.
Esengo na moto oyo asalaka bongo, oyo akangamaka na yango, oyo abatelaka mokolo ya Saba mpe abebisaka te bosantu na yango, mpe oyo abatelaka loboko na ye ete esala mabe te! »
3 And let not the son of the foreigner, who hath joined himself unto Yahweh, speak, saying, Yahweh, will separate, me from his people, Neither let the eunuch, say, Lo! I, am a tree dried up!
Tika ete mopaya oyo akangami na Yawe aloba te: « Yawe akokabola ngai solo na bato na Ye! » Mpe tika ete soda oyo baboma mokongo aloba te: « Nazali na ngai kaka nzete ya kokawuka! »
4 For thus, saith Yahweh—Of the eunuchs, Who shall keep my sabbaths, And choose what I delight in, —And lay firm hold on my covenant,
Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Mpo na basoda oyo baboma bango mikongo, oyo babatelaka mokolo na Ngai ya Saba, oyo baponaka makambo oyo esepelisaka Ngai, mpe bakangamaka na boyokani na Ngai:
5 That I will give unto them—In my house, And within my walls, A sign and a name, better than sons and daughters, —A name age-abiding, will I give him, which shall not be cut off.
nakopesa bango, kati na Tempelo na Ngai mpe na bamir na yango, ekaniseli oyo ezali na kombo: ekozala malamu koleka kozala na bana mibali mpe bana basi. Nakopesa bango kombo ya libela, oyo bakoki kolongola te.
6 And, as for the sons of the foreigner—Who have joined themselves unto Yahweh To wait upon him, and To love the name of Yahweh, To become his for servants, —Every one who keepeth the sabbath, lest he profane it. And who, layeth firm hold on my covenant,
Bapaya oyo bakangami na Yawe mpo na kosalela Ye, mpo na kolinga Kombo na Ye mpe kogumbamela Ye, bato nyonso oyo bakobatela mokolo ya Saba mpe bakobebisa te bosantu na yango, mpe bato oyo bakokangama na boyokani na Ngai;
7 Surely I will bring them into my holy mountain And make them joyful in my house of prayer, Their ascending-offerings and their sacrifices, being accepted upon mine altar, —For, my house, a house of prayer, shall be called, for all the peoples!
nakomema bango na ngomba na Ngai ya bule mpe nakopesa bango esengo kati na Ndako epai wapi basambelaka Ngai. Bambeka na bango ya kotumba mpe makabo na bango ekondimama na etumbelo na Ngai, pamba te Ndako na Ngai ekobengama Ndako ya losambo mpo na bikolo nyonso. »
8 Declareth My Lord, Yahweh, Who is gathering the outcasts of Israel: —Yet others, will I gather unto him Besides his own gathered ones.
Nkolo Yawe oyo asangisi bawumbu ya Isalaele alobi: « Nakosangisa lisusu bato mosusu elongo na bango, esika moko na bato oyo nasilaki kosangisa. »
9 All ye beasts of the field! come ye to devour, All ye beasts in the forest.
Bino banyama nyonso ya esobe, boya; bino banyama nyonso ya zamba, boya kolia!
10 His watchmen, are blind None of them, know, All of them, are dumb dogs, they cannot bark, —Dreaming, sleeping, loving to slumber.
Bakengeli ya Isalaele bazali bakufi miso, bango nyonso bazangi mayele; bango nyonso bazali lokola bambwa oyo egangaka te, bakokaka koganga te, mosala na bango kolala mpe kolota bandoto, balingi pongi makasi.
11 And, the dogs, are greedy they know not to be satisfied. Yea, they, are shepherds who know not to discern, —All of them unto their own way, have turned, Every man to his unjust gain, on every hand:
Bazali lokola bambwa ya lokoso, batondaka te. Bazali babateli oyo bazangi bososoli, moko na moko kati na bango alandaka kaka nzela na ye moko mpe alukaka kaka bolamu na ye moko.
12 Come ye! I will fetch wine Let us fill ourselves with strong drink, —And like this day, shall, to-morrow be—Great beyond measure!
Moko na moko alobaka: « Yaka! Tika ete nakamata vino mpo ete tomela mpe tolangwa na biso masanga! Lobi mpe ekozala kaka ndenge moko na lelo, masanga ya komela ezali nanu ebele! »
