< Isaiah 27 >
1 In that day the LORD with his keen and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he will slay the dragon that [is] in the sea.
Na mokolo wana, Yawe akopesa etumbu na Leviatani, nyoka oyo ekimaka, na Leviatani, nyoka ya somo, na nzela ya mopanga na Ye ya minu, mopanga na Ye ya monene mpe ya nguya; akoboma elima ya ebale monene.
2 In that day sing ye to her, A vineyard of red wine.
Na mokolo wana, bakoloba: « Boyemba nzembo mpo na nzete ya vino ya kitoko:
3 I the LORD do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest [any] hurt it, I will keep it night and day.
Ngai Yawe, nabatelaka yango, nasopelaka yango mayi tango nyonso, nakengelaka yango butu mpe moyi mpo ete moto moko te abebisa yango.
4 Fury [is] not in me: who would set the briers [and] thorns against me in battle? I would go through them, I would burn them together.
Nazali lisusu na kanda te. Ah, soki ezalaki kaka na banzube mpe na basende mpo na kobundisa Ngai, nde natambolaki likolo na yango na bitumba mpe nabwakaki yango nyonso na moto.
5 Or let him take hold of my strength, [that] he may make peace with me, [and] he shall make peace with me.
Kasi tika ete bakimela epai na Ngai lokola ndako batonga makasi, tika ete baluka kosala kimia elongo na Ngai; solo, tika ete baluka kosala kimia elongo na Ngai! »
6 He shall cause them that descend from Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.
Na mikolo oyo ekoya, Jakobi akozwa misisa, Isalaele akobimisa bafololo mpe mito, mpe akotondisa mokili na bambuma na ye.
7 Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? [or] is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?
Boni, Yawe abetaki ye te ndenge abetaki bato oyo babetaki ye? Boni, abomaki ye te ndenge abomaki bato oyo babomaki ye?
8 In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.
Apesaki bango etumbu na kotelemela mpe na kobengana. Alongolaki bango na mopepe na Ye ya makasi, kaka na mokolo moko ya mopepe na Ye ya este.
9 By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this [is] all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalk-stones that are beaten asunder, the groves and images shall not stand up.
Ezali na nzela wana nde mabe ya Jakobi ekolimbisama, mpe tala oyo ekozala mbuma ya bolimbisi masumu na ye: akobuka mabanga nyonso ya etumbelo mpo ete ekoma lokola mabanga ya pembe oyo babuka-buka; mpe likonzi moko te ya Ashera to etumbelo ya malasi ya ansa ekotikala.
10 Yet the fortified city [shall be] desolate, [and] the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume its branches.
Engumba ya makasi etikali pamba lokola lopango oyo basundola, babosana mpe etikala pamba lokola esobe; mwana ngombe ya mobali ekokoma kolia mpe kolala kuna, bongo ekolia ata makasa ya bitape na yango.
11 When its boughs are withered, they shall be broken off: the women come [and] set them on fire: for it [is] a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will show them no favor.
Tango bitape na yango ekokawuka, ekobukana; basi bakoya kotia yango na moto. Mpo ete bato oyo bazangi mayele, yango wana Mokeli na bango ayokelaki bango mawa te, Mozalisi na bango atalisaki bango ngolu na Ye te.
12 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the LORD shall gather from the channel of the river to the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
Na tango wana, Yawe akotuta ble wuta na ngambo ya ebale (Efrate) kino na mayi oyo etiolaka makasi na bangomba ya Ejipito. Boye, bino bana ya Isalaele, Yawe akolokota bino moko na moko mpo na kosangisa bino.
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD on the holy mount at Jerusalem.
Na mokolo wana, bakobeta kelelo oyo ya monene; bato oyo bazalaki kobebisama na mokili ya Asiri mpe oyo bakendeki na bowumbu na Ejipito bakoya mpe bakogumbamela Yawe na ngomba ya bule, na Yelusalemi.
