< Ezayi 4 >
1 Na mokolo wana, basi sambo bakokangama na mobali moko mpe bakoloba: « Tokomileisa biso moko mpe tokomilatisa biso moko; yo, ndima kaka ete tobengama na kombo na yo! Longola soni na biso! »
In that day shall seven women lay hold of one man saying: We will eat our own bread, And wear our own garments, Only let us be called by thy name, And take away our reproach!
2 Na mokolo wana, nkona ya Yawe ekokoma kitoko mpe nkembo, bongo mbuma ya mabele ekosala lokumu mpe nkembo, ya ndambo ya bana ya Isalaele oyo babiki.
In that day shall the increase of Jehovah be glorious and honorable, And the fruit of the land excellent and beautiful, For them that have escaped of Israel.
3 Bato oyo bakotikala na Siona mpe ba-oyo bakovanda na Yelusalemi bakobengama basantu: bango nyonso oyo bakombo na bango ekomama kati na bato oyo batikali na bomoi na Yelusalemi.
All that remain in Zion, And all that are left in Jerusalem, Shall be called holy; Every one that is written down for life in Jerusalem.
4 Yawe akolongola botutu ya basi ya Siona, akopetola Yelusalemi oyo ekomaki mbindo na bilembo ya makila, na nzela ya molimo ya kosambisa mpe ya moto.
When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, And have removed the blood of Jerusalem from the midst of her, By a spirit of judgment and a spirit of destruction,
5 Boye, Yawe akokela na likolo ya ngomba mobimba ya Siona mpe na likolo ya bato oyo basanganaka kuna: lipata na tango ya moyi, mpe kongenga ya moto na tango ya butu. Bongo na likolo na nyonso, nkembo na Yawe ekozipa bango.
Then shall Jehovah create upon the whole extent of mount Zion, and upon her places of assembly, A cloud and smoke by day, And the brightness of a flaming fire by night; Yea, for all that is glorious there shall be a shelter;
6 Ekozala lokola ndako ya matiti oyo epesaka pio na tango ya molunge ya moyi makasi, ekimelo mpe ebombamelo na tango ya mopepe makasi mpe na tango ya mvula.
There shall be a tent by day for a shadow from the heat, And for a refuge and shelter from the storm and rain.
