Ezayi 61
1 Molimo ya Nkolo Yawe azali likolo na ngai, pamba te Yawe apakoli ngai mafuta mpo na kosakola sango malamu epai ya babola, kobikisa bato oyo mitema na bango esili kozoka, kosakola bonsomi epai ya bawumbu mpe kobimisa bakangami na boloko;
The spirit of the Lord is upon me, because the Lord hath anointed me: he hath sent me to preach to the meek, to heal the contrite of heart, and to preach a release to the captives, and deliverance to them that are shut up.
2 mpo na kosakola mpo na Yawe mobu ya ngolu, kosakola mpo na Nzambe na biso mokolo ya kozongisa mabe na mabe, kobondisa bato oyo bazali kolela,
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God: to comfort all that mourn:
3 komema epai na bato ya Siona, oyo bazali na matanga mitole na esika ya putulu, mafuta ya esengo na esika ya matanga, mpe kopesa elamba ya lokumu na esika ya molimo oyo etutami. Bakobengama terebente ya bosembo, elanga ya Yawe, mpo na komonisa nkembo na Ye.
To appoint to the mourners of Sion, and to give them a crown for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, a garment of praise for the spirit of grief: and they shall be called in it the mighty ones of justice, the planting of the Lord to glorify hint.
4 Bakotonga lisusu bisika oyo ekoma mabanga-mabanga wuta kala, bisika oyo ebukana-bukana wuta na tango ya kala; bakokomisa sika bingumba oyo ekweya, oyo ebeba wuta bileko ya kala.
And they shall build the places that have been waste from of old, and shall raise up ancient ruins, and shall repair the desolate cities, that were destroyed for generation and generation.
5 Bapaya bakoleisa bibwele na yo, bana ya bapaya bakosalela yo bilanga mpe bakolonela yo bilanga ya vino.
And strangers shall stand and shall feed your flocks: and the sons of strangers shall be your husbandmen, and the dressers of your vines.
6 Kasi bino, bokobengama Banganga-Nzambe ya Yawe, bakopesa bino kombo bawumbu ya Nzambe na biso; bokolia mpe bokotonda na bozwi ya bikolo mpe bokozwa lokumu na bomengo na bango.
But you shall be called the priests of the Lord: to you it shall be said: Ye ministers of our God: you shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and you shall pride yourselves in their glory.
7 Na esika ya soni na bino, bokozwa litomba mbala mibale, mpe na esika ya kosambwa, bokosepela na libula na bino. Boye, bokozwa litomba mbala mibale kati na mokili na bino mpe bokosepela mpo na libela.
For your double confusion and shame, they shall praise their part: therefore shall they receive double in their land, everlasting joy shall be unto them.
8 Pamba te Ngai Yawe, nalingaka bosembo, nayinaka moyibi mpe masumu; nakofuta bino na bolingo na Ngai mpe nakosala boyokani ya libela elongo na bino.
For I am the Lord that love judgment, and hate robbery in a holocaust: and I will make their work in truth, and I will make a perpetual covenant with them.
9 Bakitani na bino bakoyebana kati na mabota, mpe bana na bino bakoyebana kati na bikolo; moto nyonso oyo akomona bino akondima ete bozali bato oyo Yawe apamboli.
And they shall know their seed among the Gentiles, and their offspring in the midst of peoples: all that shall see them, shall know them, that these are the seed which the Lord hath blessed.
10 Nakosepela makasi kati na Yawe, molimo na ngai ekosepela kati na Nzambe na ngai, pamba te alatisi ngai bilamba ya lobiko mpe azipi ngai na elamba ya bosembo, ndenge mobandami ya mobali alataka motole na ye ya kitoko lokola Nganga-Nzambe to ndenge mobandami ya mwasi alataka mayaka na ye ya talo.
I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, and my soul shall be joyful in my God: for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation: and with the robe of justice he hath covered me, as a bridegroom decked with a crown, and as a bride adorned with her jewels.
11 Pamba te ndenge mabele ebimisaka matiti mpe elanga ebimisaka nkona na yango, Nkolo Yawe mpe akoyeisa bosembo elongo na masanzoli liboso ya bikolo nyonso.
For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth her seed to shoot forth: so shall the Lord God make justice to spring forth, and praise before all the nations.
