Ezayi 2
1 Tala makambo oyo Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi, amonaki na tina na Yuda mpe Yelusalemi:
This is what Isaiah [Salvation of Yah] the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah [Praised] and Jerusalem [City of peace].
2 Na mikolo oyo ekoya, ngomba ya Tempelo ya Yawe ekolendisama ngwi na songe ya bangomba, ekoleka bangomba mikuse nyonso na molayi, mpe bikolo nyonso ekokende kotondana kuna.
It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of Adonai’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.
3 Bato ya bikolo ebele bakokende kuna mpe bakoloba: « Boya, tomata na ngomba ya Yawe, na Tempelo ya Nzambe ya Jakobi. Akoteya biso banzela na Ye mpo ete tolanda banzela mike na Ye. » Pamba te Mobeko ekowuta na Siona, mpe Liloba na Yawe ekowuta na Yelusalemi.
Many peoples shall go and say, “Come, let’s go up to the mountain of Adonai, to the house of the God of Jacob [Supplanter]; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For out of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] Torah ·Teaching· shall go forth, and Adonai’s word from Jerusalem [City of peace].
4 Akozala Mosambisi kati na bikolo, akokata makambo ya kowelana kati na bato ebele. Bakotumba mipanga na bango na moto mpo na kosala bakongo, mpe makonga na bango mpo na kosala bambeli. Ekolo moko te ekotombola lisusu mopanga mpo na kobundisa ekolo mosusu; bato bakoyekola lisusu te kobunda bitumba.
He will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 Oh ndako ya Jakobi, yaka, tika ete totambola na pole ya Yawe!
House of Jacob [Supplanter], come, and let us walk in the light of Adonai.
6 Solo, osundolaki bato na Yo, libota ya Jakobi, mpo ete batondisami na bizaleli ya soloka oyo ewuti na Este; bazali kosalela maji lokola bato ya Filisitia, bazali kosala boyokani elongo na bapagano.
For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob [Supplanter], because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)], and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
7 Mokili na bango etondi na palata mpe wolo, bomengo na bango ezali na suka te. Mokili na bango etondi na bampunda mpe bakoki ata moke te kotanga bashar na bango ya bitumba.
Their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures. Their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
8 Mokili na bango etondi na banzambe ya bikeko, bato bakomi kofukamela biloko oyo esalemi na maboko na bango, oyo misapi na bango esili kosala.
Their land also is full of idols. They worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
9 Yango wana, bato bakokitisa mito, mpe bato ya lokumu bakotonda na soni; kolimbisa bango te!
Man is brought low, and mankind is humbled; therefore don’t forgive them.
10 Kimela na madusu ya mabanga, bombama na putulu ya mabele liboso ya nguya ya kanda ya Yawe, liboso ya nkembo ya lokumu na Ye!
Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, to escape from the terror of Adonai, and from the glory of his majesty.
11 Na mokolo wana, moto ya lolendo akokitisa elongi, bato ya lofundu bakokitisama; Yawe kaka nde akonetolama.
The lofty looks of man will be brought low, the haughtiness of men will be bowed down, and Adonai alone will be exalted in that day.
12 Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, abongisa mokolo moko mpo na kokitisa bato nyonso ya lolendo mpe ya lofundu, bato nyonso oyo bamimatisaka,
For there will be a day of Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] for all that is proud and haughty, and for all that is lifted up; and it shall be brought low:
13 banzete nyonso ya sedele ya Libani, oyo eleki na molayi mpe na kotombwama, mpe banzete nyonso ya sheni ya Bashani;
For all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,
14 bangomba nyonso ya milayi mpe bangomba nyonso ya mikuse,
For all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,
15 bandako nyonso ya milayi, bamir nyonso ya milayi oyo batonga makasi;
For every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,
16 bamasuwa nyonso ya Tarsisi mpe bomengo na yango nyonso ya kitoko.
For all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.
17 Lolendo ya moto ekosila mpe lofundu ya bato ekosuka; Yawe kaka nde akonetolama na mokolo wana.
The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Adonai alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 Banzambe nyonso ya bikeko bakobebisama nye.
The idols shall utterly pass away.
19 Bato bakokimela na madusu ya mabanga mpe na putulu ya mabele liboso ya nguya ya kanda ya Yawe, liboso ya nkembo ya lokumu na Ye, tango akotelema mpo na koningisa mokili.
Men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, to escape from the terror of Adonai, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
20 Na mokolo wana, bato bakobwaka epai ya bampuku mpe bangembo banzambe na bango ya bikeko ya palata mpe banzambe na bango ya bikeko ya wolo, oyo basalaki mpo ete bafukamela bango.
In that day, men shall cast away their idols of silver, and their idols of gold, which have been made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
21 Bakokima na madusu ya mabanga mpe kati na mabanga liboso ya nguya ya kanda ya Yawe, liboso ya nkembo ya lokumu na Ye, tango akotelema mpo na koningisa mokili.
To go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, to escape from the terror of Adonai, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
22 Botika kotia elikya na moto oyo bomoi na ye ezali lokola pema kati na zolo na ye. Motuya nini azali na yango?
Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?
