2 Tala, molili ezipi mabele mpe molili makasi ezipi bato, kasi Yawe atelemi mpo na yo mpe nkembo na Ye emonani epai na yo.
For behold, darkness will cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the LORD will arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.

15 Ata basundolaki yo mpe bayinaki yo, mpe moto moko te azalaki lisusu koleka epai na yo, nakopesa yo lokumu mpo na tango nyonso mpe esengo ya libela na libela.
“Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, so that no one passed through you, I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.

For bronze I will bring gold; for iron I will bring silver; for wood, bronze, and for stones, iron. I will also make peace your governor, and righteousness your ruler.
18 Kati na mokili na yo, okoyoka lisusu te makelele ya mobulu to ya kopanza to ya kobebisama kati na etando na yo; kasi okobenga bamir na yo ‹ Lobiko, › mpe bikuke na yo ‹ Masanzoli. ›
Violence shall no more be heard in your land, nor desolation or destruction within your borders; but you will call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise.
19 Pole ya moyi ekongengisa lisusu mokolo na yo te, to kongenga ya sanza ekongengisa yo lisusu te na butu; pamba te Yawe akozala pole na yo mpo na libela, mpe Nzambe na yo akozala nkembo na yo.
The sun will be no more your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon give light to you, but the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.
20 Moyi na yo ekolala lisusu te, mpe sanza na yo ekobunga lisusu te; pamba te Yawe akozala pole na yo mpo na libela, mpe mikolo na yo ya pasi ekosila.
Your sun will not go down any more, nor will your moon withdraw itself; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning will end.
21 Solo, bato na yo nyonso bakokoma bato ya sembo mpe bakozwa mokili lokola libula mpo na libela; bazali mwa nzete moke oyo nalonaki, mosala ya maboko na Ngai, mpo na komonisa nkembo na Ngai.
Then your people will all be righteous. They will inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
22 Oyo aleki moke kati na bino akokoma nkoto moko, mpe oyo aleki moke penza akokoma ekolo ya makasi. Ngai, nazali Yawe, nakoyeisa yango mbangu na tango na yango. »
The little one will become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation. I, the LORD, will do this quickly in its time.”
