Ezayi 52
1 Oh Siona, lamuka, lamuka! Tika ete omikomisa lisusu makasi. Yelusalemi, engumba ya bule, lata bilamba na yo ya lokumu, pamba te ezala moto oyo bakata ngenga te to moto ya mbindo, akokota lisusu kati na yo te.
Aries, arise: put on thy strength, O Zion: put on thy garments of thy beautie, O Ierusalem, the holy citie: for hencefoorth there shall no more come into thee the vncircumcised and the vncleane.
2 Oh Yelusalemi, milongola na putulu, telema mpe vanda na esika na yo ya lokumu! Oh Siona, mboka kitoko, yo oyo ozali mokangami, kata minyololo na kingo na yo!
Shake thy selfe from the dust: arise, and sit downe, O Ierusalem: loose the bandes of thy necke, O thou captiue daughter, Zion.
3 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Lokola bomitekaki na ofele, bokosikolama mpe na mbongo te. »
For thus sayeth the Lord, Yee were solde for naught: therefore shall ye be redeemed without money.
4 Pamba te, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: « Na ebandeli, bato na Ngai bakendeki na Ejipito mpo na kovanda kuna lokola bapaya; mpe na sima, Asiri anyokolaki bango.
For thus saith the Lord God, My people went downe afore time into Egypt to soiourne there, and Asshur oppressed them without cause.
5 Sik’oyo, eloko nini nasili kozwa awa, » elobi Yawe? « Pamba te bamemaki bato na Ngai na pamba, mpe bato oyo bazali kokonza bango bazali koganga makasi, » elobi Yawe, « mpe, mokolo na mokolo mpe tango nyonso, Kombo na Ngai ezali kofingama.
Nowe therefore what haue I here, saith the Lord, that my people is taken away for naught, and they that rule ouer them, make them to howle, saith the Lord? and my Name all the day continually is blasphemed?
6 Yango wana, bato na Ngai bakoyeba Kombo na Ngai; yango wana, na mokolo wana, bakoyeba ete Ngai moko nde nasakolaki yango. Solo, ezali nde Ngai. »
Therefore my people shall know my Name: therefore they shall know in that day, that I am he that doe speake: beholde, it is I.
7 Tala ndenge ezali kitoko, na likolo ya bangomba, makolo ya bato oyo basakolaka basango ya malamu, ba-oyo batatolaka kimia, ba-oyo bamemaka basango ya boboto, ba-oyo basakolaka lobiko, ba-oyo balobaka na Siona: « Nzambe na yo azali Mokonzi! »
How beautifull vpon the mountaines are the feete of him, that declareth and publisheth peace? that declareth good tidings, and publisheth saluation, saying vnto Zion, Thy God reigneth?

The voyce of thy watchmen shalbe heard: they shall lift vp their voyce, and shoute together: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring againe Zion.

O ye desolate places of Ierusalem, bee glad and reioyce together: for the Lord hath comforted his people: he hath redeemed Ierusalem.

The Lord hath made bare his holy arme in the sight of all the Gentiles, and all the endes of the earth shall see the saluation of our God.
