< Isaiah 6 >

1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw My Lord, sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and, his skirts, did fill the temple,
Na mobu oyo mokonzi Oziasi akufaki, namonaki Yawe avandi na Kiti moko ya bokonzi, etombwama makasi, bongo basonge ya nzambala na Ye etondisaki Tempelo.
2 Seraphim, were standing above him; six wings severally, had each one, —With twain, he covered his face And with twain, he covered his feet And with twain, he did fly.
Ba-anjelu oyo babengaka baserafe batelemaki na likolo na Ye; moko na moko azalaki na mapapu motoba: mapapu mibale mpo na kozipa elongi, mibale mpo na kozipa makolo mpe mibale mpo na kopumbwa.
3 And they continued crying out one to another, and said, Holy—holy—holy, is Yahweh of hosts, —the fulness of the whole earth, is his glory.
Serafe moko na moko azalaki koganga na mosusu: « Bule, Bule, Bule, Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga! Mokili mobimba etondi na nkembo na Ye! »
4 And the foundations of the porch, were moved at the voice of him that cried, —and the house, was filled with smoke.
Na makelele ya mingongo na bango, mabaya oyo esimbaka bikuke ekomaki koningana, mpe Tempelo etondaki na milinga.
5 Then said I—Woe to me!—for I am undone, Because a man of unclean lips, am, I, And in the midst of a people of unclean lips, do I dwell, —For the King. Yahweh of hosts, have mine eyes seen!
Nalobaki: « Mawa na ngai! Nabebi na ngai, pamba te nazali moto ya bibebu ya mbindo, navandaka kati na bato oyo bazali na bibebu ya mbindo, mpe miso na ngai emoni Mokonzi, Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga! »
6 Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, And in his hand, a live coal, —With tongs, had he taken it from off the altar.
Moko kati na baserafe asimbaki, na loboko na ye, likala ya moto oyo azwaki na etumbelo na bisimbelo, apumbwaki mpe ayaki epai na ngai;
7 Then touched he my mouth, and said—Lo! this hath touched thy lips, —Thus shall be taken away, thine iniquity, And, thy sin, by propitiation be covered.
atutisaki likala yango na monoko na ngai mpe alobaki: « Tala, lokola likala oyo etuti bibebu na yo, mabe na yo esili kolongwa, masumu na yo esili kolimbisama. »
8 Then heard I the voice of My Lord, saying, Whom shall I send? And who will go for us? And I said—Here am I—send me.
Bongo, nayokaki mongongo na Nkolo koloba: — Nakotinda nani? Nani akokende mpo na biso? Nazongisaki: — Ngai oyo, tinda ngai!
9 Then said he—Go and say unto this people, —Hear on but do not discern, See on but do not perceive:
Yawe alobaki na ngai: — Kende koloba na bato oyo: « Boyoka na bino, kasi bokososola te; botala na bino, kasi bokomona te!
10 Stupefy thou the heart of this people, And their ears, make thou heavy, And their eyes, overspread, —Lest they see with their eyes And with their ears, should hear, And their heart should discern and come back. And they be healed.
Komisa bato oyo mitema makasi, kanga matoyi na bango mpe zipa miso na bango mpo ete bamona te na miso na bango, bayoka te na matoyi na bango, basosola te na mitema na bango, babongwana te mpe babika te! »
11 Then said I—How long, My Lord? And he said—Until the time that Cities be wasted through having no inhabitant And houses—through having no men, And, the ground, be laid waste unto desolation;
Boye nalobaki: — Oh Nkolo, kino tango nini? Azongisaki: — Kino bingumba ekobebisama mpe ekotikala lisusu na bato te, kino tango bato bakotikala lisusu na bandako te, mpe bilanga ekobebisama mpe bakosakanela yango;
12 And Yahweh have far removed men, —And great! be the abandonment in the midst of the land.
kino tango Yawe akotinda bato mosika, kino tango bakobosana penza mokili libela.
13 Yet still shall there be in it a tenth, Though it again be consumed, —Like an oak and like a terebinth Which when felled, have a stock in them, A holy seed, shall be the stock thereof.
Soki ndambo moko kati na bandambo zomi ya bato ekotikala na mokili, bakobebisama na moto. Kasi ndenge terebente mpe nzete oyo babengaka sheni etikaka misisa na yango soki bakati yango, ndenge wana mpe nkona ya bule ekotika misisa na mokili.
