Ezayi 13
1 Maloba ya kosambisa Babiloni, oyo Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, azwaki na emoniseli:
The burden of Babel, which Isaiah the sonne of Amoz did see.
2 Botombola bendele likolo ya ngomba oyo ezanga banzete, boganga epai na bango; bopepa bango loboko mpo ete bakota na bikuke ya bakambi.
Lift vp a standard vpon the hie mountaine: lift vp the voyce vnto them: wagge the hand, that they may goe into the gates of the nobles.
3 Napesaki mitindo epai na bato oyo babulisama mpo na Ngai; nabengisaki lisusu bilombe na Ngai, bato oyo basepelaka na lokumu na Ngai, mpo na kosilisa kanda na Ngai.
I haue commanded them, that I haue sanctified: and I haue called ye mightie to my wrath, and them that reioyce in my glorie.
4 Boyoka makelele likolo ya bangomba: ezali lokola makelele ya bato ebele! Boyoka lokito ya makelele ya bikolo: ezali lokola bikolo esangana esika moko! Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, azali kotala mampinga ya basoda oyo bazali pene ya kokende na etumba.
The noyse of a multitude is in the mountaines, like a great people: a tumultuous voyce of the kingdomes of the nations gathered together: the Lord of hostes nombreth the hoste of the battell.
5 Bawuti na mikili ya mosika, na suka ya likolo; Yawe elongo na bisalelo ya kanda na Ye; mpo na kobebisa mokili mobimba.
They come from a farre countrey, from the end of the heauen: euen the Lord with the weapons of his wrath to destroy the whole land.
6 Bolela, pamba te mokolo na Yawe ekomi pene, ekoya lokola kobebisama oyo ewuti na Nkolo-Na-Nguya-Nyonso.
Howle you, for the day of the Lord is at hande: it shall come as a destroier from the Almightie.
7 Yango wana, maboko nyonso ekolemba mpe mitema ya bato nyonso ekobukana.
Therefore shall all hands be weakened, and all mens hearts shall melt,
8 Somo makasi ekokweyela bango, pasi mpe kobanga ekotika bango te; bakobunda-bunda lokola mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota. Bango na bango bakotalana na kokamwa mpe bilongi na bango ekokoma lokola moto.
And they shalbe afraid: anguish and sorowe shall take them, and they shall haue paine, as a woman that trauaileth: euery one shall be amased at his neighbour, and their faces shalbe like flames of fire.
9 Tala, mokolo na Yawe ezali koya, ezali mokolo moko ya pasi, mokolo ya kotomboka mpe ya kanda makasi mpo na kobebisa mokili mpe koboma bato ya masumu kati na yango.
Beholde, the day of the Lord commeth, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger to lay the land wast: and he shall destroy the sinners out of it.
10 Minzoto na likolo mpe minda nyonso oyo ezali pene na yango ekopesa lisusu pole na yango te: moyi ekokoma molili tango tongo ekotana, mpe sanza ekopesa lisusu pole na yango te.
For the starres of heauen and the planets thereof shall not giue their light: the sunne shalbe darkened in his going foorth, and the moone shall not cause her light to shine.
11 Nakopesa etumbu na mokili mpo na mabe na yango, mpe bato mabe, mpo na masumu na bango. Nakosukisa lofundu ya bato ya lolendo mpe nakokitisa lolendo ya banyokoli.
And I will visite the wickednes vpon the worlde, and their iniquitie vpon the wicked, and I wil cause the arrogancie of the proud to cease, and will cast downe the pride of tyrants.
12 Nakosala ete bato bakoma ya koluka lokola wolo ya peto, lokola wolo ya mboka Ofiri.
I will make a man more precious then fine golde, euen a man aboue the wedge of golde of Ophir.
13 Yango wana nakolengisa likolo, mpe mabele ekoningana na bisimbelo na yango na kanda makasi ya Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, na mokolo oyo akopelisa kanda na Ye.
Therefore I will shake the heauen, and the earth shall remooue out of her place in the wrath of the Lord of hostes, and in the day of his fierce anger.
14 Lokola mboloko oyo bazali kolanda, lokola bameme oyo ezanga mobateli, moko na moko akozonga epai ya bato na ye, moko na moko akokima kino na mboka ya bakoko na ye.
And it shall be as a chased doe, and as a sheepe that no man taketh vp. euery man shall turne to his owne people, and flee eche one to his owne lande.
15 Bakotobola na likonga moto nyonso oyo bakokanga. Bato nyonso oyo bakozwa, bakokufa na mopanga.
Euery one that is founde, shall be striken through: and whosoeuer ioyneth himselfe, shall fal by the sworde.
16 Bakokata-kata bana na bango na biteni na miso na bango, bakobebisa bandako na bango mpe bakozwa basi na bango na makasi.
Their children also shall be broken in pieces before their eyes: their houses shall be spoiled, and their wiues rauished.
17 Tala, nakotelemisa bato ya Medi ete batelemela bango, bato oyo palata elobelaka bango eloko moko te mpe basepelaka na bango na wolo te.
Beholde, I will stirre vp the Medes against them, which shall not regarde siluer, nor be desirous of golde.
18 Boye, tolotolo na bango ekoboma bilenge mibali mpe bakoyokela mbuma ya libumu mawa te: liso na bango ekotala bana na mawa te.
With bowes also shall they destroy ye children, and shall haue no compassion vpon the fruit of the wombe, and their eies shall not spare the children.
19 Nzambe akokweyisa Babiloni, kongenga ya babokonzi, nkembo ya lolendo ya bato ya Chalide, ndenge akweyisaki Sodome mpe Gomore.
And Babel the glorie of kingdomes, the beautie and pride of the Chaldeans, shall be as the destruction of God in Sodom and Gomorah.
20 Bato bakotikala kovanda lisusu kuna te to ekozala lisusu na bato te na milongo nyonso; kuna, moto ya Arabi akopika te ndako na ye ya kapo, mpe babateli bibwele bakopemisa te banyama na bango.
It shall not bee inhabited for euer, neither shall it be dwelled in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch his tents there, neither shall the shepheardes make their foldes there.
21 Kasi bikelamu ya esobe nde ekokoma kolala kuna; bambwa ya zamba nde ekotondisa bandako na yango, ba-esulungutu ekotonda na bandako, maligbanga ekokoma kovanda kuna mpe bantaba ya zamba ekokoma kopumbwa-pumbwa kuna.
But Ziim shall lodge there, and their houses shall be ful of Ohim: Ostriches shall dwel there, and the Satyrs shall dance there.
22 Banyawu ya zamba ekotonda na bandako na bango ya makasi, mpe bambwa ya zamba ekotonda na bandako na bango ya kitoko. Tango na yango esili kobelema, mpe mikolo na yango ekopusana lisusu te.
And Iim shall crie in their palaces, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and the time thereof is readie to come, and the daies thereof shall not be prolonged.
