Isaiah 24
1 Look, Yahweh is about to empty the earth, to devastate it, mar its surface, and scatter its inhabitants.
Tala, Yawe akobebisa mokili mpe akokomisa yango lokola esobe; akokotisa mobulu kati na yango mpe akopanza bato na yango.
2 It will come about that, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the creditor, so with the debtor; as with the receiver of interest, so with the giver of interest.
Ekozala mpe kaka ndenge moko mpo na Banganga-Nzambe mpe bato, mpo na nkolo mpe mowumbu na ye, mpo na nkolo ya mwasi mpe mwasi mosali na ye, mpo na moteki mpe mosombi, mpo na modefisi mpe modefi, mpo na moto oyo bakofuta ye niongo mpe mpo na moto oyo akofuta niongo.
3 The earth will be completely devastated and completely stripped; for Yahweh has spoken this word.
Mokili ekobebisama penza nye mpe bakopanza yango nyonso. Yawe nde alobaki yango.
4 The earth dries up and withers, the world shrivels up and fades away, the prominent people of the earth waste away.
Mokili ezali na matanga mpe ekawuki, mokili mobimba ebebi mpe ekawuki; ezala likolo mpe ebebi elongo na mokili!
5 The earth is polluted by its inhabitants because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, and broken the everlasting covenant.
Bato ya mokili bakomisi yango mbindo, bazali kotosa mibeko te; banyati-nyati bikateli mpe babuki boyokani ya seko.
6 Therefore a curse devours the earth, and its inhabitants are found guilty. The inhabitants of the earth burn up, and few people are left.
Mpo na yango, bilakeli mabe ezali kozikisa mokili; bato na yango bakomema mokumba ya mabe na bango. Yango wana, bato ya mokili bazali kokufa, mpe ndambo moke kaka nde etikali.
7 The new wine dries up, the vine withers, all the merry-hearted groan.
Vino ya sika ezali na matanga, elanga ya vino ekawuki; bato nyonso oyo bamesana na esengo bakomi kolela na pasi.
8 The happy sound of the tambourines stops, and the revelry of those who rejoice; the joy of the lyre ceases.
Esengo ya mbonda esili, makelele ya bato ya biyenga esili, esengo ya lindanda esili;
9 They no longer drink wine and sing, and the beer is bitter to those who drink it.
komela vino etikali lisusu na banzembo te, masanga ya makasi ekomi bololo mpo na bato oyo bamelaka yango.
10 The city of chaos has been broken down; every house is closed up and empty.
Engumba oyo ebeba etikali pamba, bikuke ya bandako nyonso ekangami.
11 There is a crying in the streets because of the wine; all joy is darkened, the gladness of the land has disappeared.
Na babalabala, koganga na koganga ete vino ezali lisusu te, kosepela nyonso ebongwani molili, esengo nyonso elongwe na mokili.
12 In the city is left a desolation, and the gate is broken into a ruin.
Libebi kaka nde etikali kati na engumba, babuki-buki bikuke na yango na biteni.
13 For this is how it will be on the whole earth among the nations, as when an olive tree is beaten, as the gleanings when the grape harvest is done.
Pamba te ekosalema kati na mokili mpe kati na bikolo ndenge esalemaka tango babukaka bambuma ya olive na nzete to tango balokotaka bambuma ya vino soki basilisi kobuka yango.
14 They will lift up their voices and shout the majesty of Yahweh, and will joyfully shout from the sea.
Bamoko bakotombola mingongo na bango mpe bakoganga na esengo; wuta na weste ya mayi monene, bakobeta milolo mpo na lokumu na Yawe.
15 Therefore in the east glorify Yahweh, and in the isles of the sea give glory to the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
Yango wana, kuna na ngambo ya este, bopesa nkembo na Yawe; bonetola Kombo ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, kati na bisanga ya ebale monene.
16 From the farthest part of the earth we have heard songs, “Glory to the righteous one!” But I said, “I have wasted away, I have wasted away, woe is me! The treacherous have dealt treacherously; yes, the treacherous have dealt very treacherously.”
Wuta na suka ya mokili, tozali koyoka banzembo: « Nkembo epai ya Nkolo-Na-Bosembo. » Kasi nalobaki: « Nakomi na suka, nakomi na suka! Mawa mpo na ngai! Bazoba bateki mboka, na bozoba penza, bazoba bateki mboka! »
17 Terror, the pit, and the snare are upon you, inhabitants of the earth.
Oh bato ya mokili, somo, libulu mpe motambo ezali kozela bino.
18 He who flees from the sound of terror will fall into the pit, and he who comes up out of the middle of the pit will be caught in the snare. The windows of the heavens will be opened, and the foundations of the earth will shake.
Moto nyonso oyo akokima na lokito ya somo akokweya na libulu, mpe oyo akoluka kobima kati na libulu akokangama na motambo. Maninisa ya likolo esili kofungwama, makonzi ya mokili ezali koningana.
19 The earth will be completely broken, the earth ripped apart; the earth will be violently shaken.
Mokili ebukani-bukani, mokili epanzani, mokili eningani makasi.
20 The earth will stagger like a drunken man and it will sway back and forth like a hut. Its sin will be heavy on it and it will fall and never rise again.
Mokili ekomi kotenga-tenga lokola moto oyo alangwe masanga, ezali koningana na mopepe lokola ndako ya matiti. Mokumba ya botomboki na ye ezali likolo na ye, esili kokweya mpe ekotelema lisusu te.
21 On that day Yahweh will punish the host of the heaven in the heavens, and the kings of the earth on the earth.
Kasi na mokolo wana, Yawe akopesa etumbu na mampinga ya lola kuna na likolo, mpe na bakonzi ya mokili na se.
22 They will be gathered together, prisoners in a pit, and will be shut up in a prison; and after many days they will be punished.
Bakosangisa bango elongo kati na libulu ndenge basangisaka bakangami na boloko, bakokangela bango na boloko mpe bakozwa etumbu sima na mikolo ebele.
23 Then the moon will be ashamed, and the sun disgraced, for Yahweh of hosts will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, and before his elders in glory.
Sanza ekokoma motane, mpe moyi ekoyoka soni, pamba te Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, akokonza na ngomba Siona mpe kati na Yelusalemi, liboso ya bampaka na yango, na nkembo makasi.
