Isaiah 40
1 My puple, be ye coumfortid, be ye coumfortid, seith youre Lord God.
Bobondisa, bobondisa bato na Ngai, elobi Nzambe na bino.
2 Speke ye to the herte of Jerusalem, and clepe ye it, for the malice therof is fillid, the wickidnesse therof is foryouun; it hath resseyued of the hond of the Lord double thingis for alle hise synnes.
Boloba kati na Yelusalemi, boyebisa ye ete minyoko na ye ekomi na suka, masumu na ye esili kolimbisama, pamba te asili kozwa na loboko ya Yawe ngolu koleka mbala mibale mpo na masumu na ye nyonso.
3 The vois of a crier in desert, Make ye redi the weie of the Lord, make ye riytful the pathis of oure God in wildirnesse.
Mongongo ya moto moko ezali kobelela: « Kati na esobe, bobongisa nzela mpo na Yawe; kati na mabele ya kokawuka, bosembolela Nzambe na biso nzela moko ya monene.
4 Ech valey schal be enhaunsid, and ech mounteyn and litil hil schal be maad low; and schrewid thingis schulen be in to streiyt thingis, and scharpe thingis schulen be in to pleyn weies.
Tika ete mabwaku nyonso ekundama, bangomba nyonso ya milayi to ya mikuse ekitisama, banzela nyonso oyo etengama esembolama, mpe mabulu nyonso ekoma bitando.
5 And the glorie of the Lord schal be schewid, and ech man schal se togidere, that the mouth of the Lord hath spoke.
Bongo, nkembo na Yawe ekomonisama, mpe bato nyonso bakomona yango elongo; » pamba te Yawe nde alobi.
6 The vois of God, seiynge, Crie thou. And Y seide, What schal Y crie? Ech fleisch is hei, and al the glorie therof is as the flour of the feeld.
Mongongo moko elobi: « Belela! » Mpe nazongisaki: « Nabelela likambo nini? » « Bato nyonso bazalaka lokola matiti, mpe nkembo na bango nyonso ezalaka lokola bafololo ya bilanga.
7 The hei is dried vp, and the flour felle doun, for the spirit of the Lord bleew therynne.
Matiti ekawukaka mpe fololo elembaka, tango mopepe ya Yawe elekaka likolo na yango. Solo, bato bazali lokola matiti:
8 Verely the puple is hey; the hey is dried vp, and the flour felle doun; but the word of the Lord dwellith with outen ende.
Matiti ekawukaka mpe fololo elembaka, kasi Liloba na Nzambe na biso ewumelaka seko na seko. »
9 Thou that prechist to Sion, stie on an hiy hil; thou that prechist to Jerusalem, enhaunse thi vois in strengthe; enhaunse thou, nyle thou drede; seie thou to the citees of Juda, Lo! youre God.
Mata likolo ya ngomba, Siona, yo momemi sango malamu; tombola mongongo na yo mpe ganga makasi, Yelusalemi, yo momemi sango malamu; tombola yango penza, kobanga te; loba na bingumba ya Yuda: « Botala Nzambe na bino! »
10 Lo! the Lord God schal come in strengthe, and his arm schal holde lordschipe; lo! his mede is with hym, and his werk is bifore hym.
Botala, Nkolo Yawe azali koya na nguya, loboko na Ye ezali kopesa Ye makoki ya kokonza. Botala, azali na lifuti elongo na Ye, azali kotambola na lifuti na Ye.
11 As a scheepherd he schal fede his flok, he schal gadere lambreen in his arm, and he schal reise in his bosom; he schal bere scheep `with lomb.
Azali kobatela etonga na Ye lokola mobateli bibwele: kosangisa bana meme na maboko na Ye mpe kokanga bango na tolo na Ye; kotambolisa malembe-malembe bana meme ya basi oyo ezali nanu komela mabele.
12 Who mat watris in a fist, and peiside heuenes with a spanne? Who peiside the heuynesse of the erthe with thre fyngris, and weide mounteyns in a weihe, and litle hillis in a balaunce?
Nani asila komeka ebale monene kati na loboko na Ye, to likolo na nzela ya molayi ya misapi na Ye? Nani asila kosangisa putulu nyonso ya mabele kati na katini moko to komeka kilo ya bangomba milayi na nzela ya ndobo to komeka kilo ya bangomba mikuse na nzela ya emekelo kilo?
13 Who helpide the Spirit of the Lord, ether who was his councelour, and schewide to hym?
Nani asosoli makanisi ya Yawe to apesi Ye toli lokola molakisi?
14 With whom took he councel, and who lernyde hym, and tauyte hym the path of riytfulnesse, and lernyde hym in kunnyng, and schewyde to him the weie of prudence?
Yawe atunaki toli na nani mpo ete apesa Ye mayele? Nani alakisaki Ye ndenge bakataka makambo na sembo to apesaki Ye boyebi, to mpe ateyaki Ye nzela ya bososoli?
15 Lo! folkis ben as a drope of a boket, and ben arettid as the tunge of a balaunce; lo!
Solo, bikolo ezali lokola litanga moko ya mayi na katini, lokola putulu kati na emekelo kilo! Tala, amekaka bisanga lokola eloko ya moke penza.
16 ylis ben as a litil dust, and the Liban schal not suffice to brenne his sacrifice, and the beestis therof schulen not suffice to brent sacrifice.
Banzete ya Libani ekokoka te mpo na kopelisa moto ya etumbelo, mpe banyama na yango ekokoka te mpo na kotumba mbeka.
17 Alle folkis ben so bifore hym, as if thei ben not; and thei ben rettid as no thing and veyn thing to hym.
Na miso na Ye, bikolo nyonso ezali lokola biloko pamba; amonaka yango lokola eloko pamba to mpe lokola eloko te.
18 To whom therfor maden ye God lijk? ether what ymage schulen ye sette to hym?
Bolingi kokokanisa Nzambe na nani? Bolingi kokokanisa Ye na elilingi nini?
19 Whether a smyth schal welle togidere an ymage, ether a gold smyth schal figure it in gold, and a worchere in siluer schal diyte it with platis of siluer?
Ndenge basalaka ekeko, mosali bikeko anyangwisi ebende na moto mpe asali ekeko; mosali ya wolo abambi ekeko yango wolo, bongo akangisi yango na basheneti ya palata.
20 A wijs crafti man chees a strong tre, and vnable to be rotun; he sekith how he schal ordeyne a symylacre, that schal not be mouyd.
Moto oyo azangi makoki ya kobonza makabo ya boye mpo ete azali mobola makasi akopona nzete oyo epolaka te; akoluka mosali bikeko oyo azali penza mayele mpo na kosala nzambe ya ekeko oyo eninganaka te.
21 Whether ye witen not? whether ye herden not? whether it was not teld to you fro the begynnynge? whether ye vndurstoden not the foundementis of erthe?
Boyebi yango te? Boyoka nanu yango te? Bayebisa bino nanu yango te wuta na ebandeli? Bososola nanu yango te wuta mokili esalema?
22 Which sittith on the cumpas of erthe, and the dwelleris therof ben as locustis; which stretchith forth heuenes as nouyt, and spredith abrood tho as a tabernacle to dwelle.
Yawe avandaka na likolo ya mondelo ya mabele, epai wapi bato na yango bamonanaka lokola mabanki; atandaki likolo lokola liputa mpe afungolaki yango lokola ndako ya kapo mpo na kovanda kuna;
23 Which yyueth the sercheris of priuytees, as if thei be not, and made the iugis of erthe as a veyn thing.
akomisaka bakonzi ya mokili bato pamba, mpe bakambi na yango lokola biloko pamba.
24 And sotheli whanne the stok of hem is nether plauntid, nether is sowun, nether is rootid in erthe, he bleew sudenli on hem, and thei drieden vp, and a whirle wynd schal take hem awei as stobil.
Tango nanu batiami kutu na mabele te, nanu balonami kutu te, mobimbi na bango ezwi nanu ata misisa te, afuli bango lokola mopepe mpe bakawuki, bongo mopepe makasi ememi bango lokola matiti ya kokawuka.
25 And to what thing `ye han licned me, and han maad euene? seith the hooli.
« Bolingi kokokanisa Ngai na nani? Bolingi kotia Ngai esika moko na nani, » elobi Ye oyo azali Mosantu?
26 Reise youre iyen an hiy, and se ye, who made these thingis of nouyt; which ledith out in noumbre the kniythod of tho, and clepith alle bi name, for the multitude of his strengthe, and stalworthnesse, and vertu; nether o residue thing was.
Botombola miso na bino mpe botala na likolo: Nani akela biloko nyonso ya likolo: moyi, sanza, minzoto mpe biloko mosusu? Ezali Ye oyo abimisaka mampinga nyonso ya minzoto mpe abengaka yango moko na moko na kombo na yango. Mpo na bokonzi monene mpe nguya makasi na Ye, moko te kati na yango ezangaka.
27 Whi seist thou, Jacob, and spekist thou, Israel, My weie is hid fro the Lord, and my doom passide fro my God?
Oh Jakobi, mpo na nini ozali koloba; oh Isalaele, mpo na nini kotatola: « Nzela na ngai ebombami na miso ya Yawe, likambo na ngai eyebani te na Nzambe na ngai? »
28 Whether thou knowist not, ether herdist thou not? God, euerlastynge Lord, that made of nouyt the endis of erthe, schal not faile, nether schal trauele, nether enserchyng of his wisdom is.
Oyebi te? Nanu oyoka te? Yawe azali Nzambe ya libela na libela, azali Mokeli ya basuka ya mabele; alembaka te mpe apemaka te, mpe moko te akoki kososola mayele na Ye.
29 That yyueth vertu to the weeri, and strengthe to hem that ben not, and multiplieth stalworthnesse.
Apesaka makasi na bato oyo balembi mpe abakisaka nguya na bato oyo bazanga nguya.
30 Children schulen faile, and schulen trauele, and yonge men schulen falle doun in her sikenesse.
Solo, bilenge bapemaka mpe balembaka, bilombe batengaka-tengaka;
31 But thei that hopen in the Lord, schulen chaunge strengthe, thei schulen take fetheris as eglis; thei schulen renne, and schulen not trauele; thei schulen go, and schulen not faile.
basi bato oyo batiaka elikya na Yawe, Yawe ayeisaka makasi na bango ya sika: bapumbwaka likolo lokola bampongo, bapotaka mbangu mpe bapemaka te, batambolaka mpe balembaka te.
