< Isaiah 62 >
1 For Zion’s sake, will I not hold my peace, And for Jerusalem’s sake, will I not rest, —Until her righteousness, go forth as brightness, And her salvation, as a torch that is lighted.
Mpo na likambo ya Siona, nakokanga monoko na Ngai te; mpo na likambo ya Yelusalemi, nakovanda kimia te, kino bosembo na ye emonana lokola kongenga ya pole, mpe lobiko na ye emonana lokola mwinda.
2 So shall nations see thy righteousness, And all kings, thy glory; And thou shalt be called by a new name, which, the mouth of Yahweh, will name.
Bongo bikolo ekomona bosembo na yo, mpe bakonzi nyonso bakomona nkembo na yo. Bakobenga yo na kombo ya sika oyo monoko na Yawe ekopesa.
3 Then shalt thou become—A crown of adorning, in the hand of Yahweh, and A royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
Okozala motole ya nkembo kati na loboko ya Yawe mpe ekoti ya bokonzi kati na loboko ya Nzambe na yo.
4 Thou shalt he termed no longer—Forsaken Nor shall thy land be termed any longer A desolation, But, thou, shalt be called Hephzibah ["My delight is in her"], And, thy land, Beulah ["married"], —For Yahweh hath found delight in thee, And thy land, shall be married.
Bakobenga yo lisusu te Engumba basundola, bakobenga lisusu mokili na yo te Mokili ebeba; kasi bakobenga yo « Esengo ya Yawe, » mpe bakobenga mokili na yo « Mwasi ya libala, » pamba te Yawe akozwa esengo kati na yo, mpe mabele na yo ekozwa mobali ya libala.
5 For a young man marrieth, a virgin, Thy sons marry thee! And the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride—Thy God, rejoiceth over thee.
Lokola elenge mobali abalaka moseka, bana na yo ya mibali mpe bakobala yo; lokola elenge mobali asepelaka na mobandami na ye ya mwasi, Nzambe na yo mpe akosepela na yo.
6 Upon thy walls O Jerusalem, have I appointed watchmen, All the day and all the night through, let them not hold their peace, —O ye that put Yahweh in mind, Do not take rest to yourselves,
Oh Yelusalemi, natelemisi basenzeli na likolo ya bamir na yo; bakovanda nye te, ezala na moyi to na butu. Bino bato oyo bosalaka ete Yawe akanisa lisusu Yelusalemi, bovanda kimia te;
7 Neither give rest, unto him, Until he establish and until he set forth Jerusalem as a praise in the earth!
mpe botikela Ye te tango ya kopema kino tango akozongisa kimia na Yelusalemi mpe akokomisa yango mboka ya lokumu kati na mokili!
8 Sworn hath Yahweh—By his own right hand, and By his own strong arm, —Surely I will give thy corn no more, as food to thine enemies, Nor shall the sons of the foreigner drink thy new wine, for which thou hast toiled;
Yawe atomboli loboko na Ye ya mobali, loboko na Ye ya nguya, mpe alapi ndayi: « Nakopesa lisusu ble na yo te lokola bilei epai ya banguna na yo; bapaya bakomela lisusu te vino na yo ya sika oyo omonelaki pasi;
9 But they who have garnered it, shall eat it, and praise Yahweh, —And they who have gathered in its clusters, shall drink it in my holy courts.
kasi bato oyo bakobuka ble bakolia yango mpe bakokumisa Yawe, mpe ba-oyo bakokamola vino bakomela yango kati na lopango ya Esika na Ngai ya bule. »
10 Pass ye through pass ye through the gates, Prepare ye the way of the people, —Cast ye up, cast ye up the highway, Clear it of stones, Lift ye high a standard unto the peoples.
Boleka, boleka na bikuke! Bobongisela bato nzela, bopasola nzela, bopasola nzela ya monene! Bolongola mabanga, botombola bendele liboso na bato ya bikolo.
11 Lo! Yahweh, hath sent a message unto the end of the earth: Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Lo! thy Salvation, is coming, —Lo! his reward, is with him, And, his recompense, before him:
Tala makambo oyo Yawe atatoli kino na basuka ya mabele: « Boloba na Siona, mboka kitoko: ‹ Tala, Mobikisi na yo azali koya! Tala, lifuti na ye ezali elongo na ye, mpe azali kotambola elongo na litomba na ye. › »
12 So shall men call them—The holy people The redeemed of Yahweh, —And, thou, shalt be called—Sought out, A city not forsaken,
Bakobenga bango Libota mosantu, basikolami na Yawe; mpe bakobenga yo Engumba oyo alingaka, engumba oyo basundola te.
