Ezayi 7
1 Tango Akazi, mwana mobali ya Yotami, mwana mobali ya Oziasi, akomaki mokonzi ya Yuda, Retsini, mokonzi ya Siri, mpe Peka, mwana mobali ya Remalia, mokonzi ya Isalaele, bakendeki kobundisa Yelusalemi, kasi bakokaki kolonga yango te.
It happened in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Aram, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to war against it, but they could not prevail against it.
2 Boye, bapesaki sango na ndako ya Davidi: « Bato ya Siri basali boyokani elongo na bato ya Efrayimi. » Motema ya Akazi mpe mitema ya bato na ye nyonso eninganaki makasi ndenge kaka banzete ya zamba eninganaka na tango ya mopepe.
It was told the house of David, saying, "Aram is allied with Ephraim." His heart trembled, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest tremble with the wind.
3 Boye, Yawe alobaki na Ezayi: « Kende, yo elongo na Sheari-Yashubi, mwana na yo ya mobali, kokutana na Akazi na suka ya nzela ya mayi oyo ekenda kino na liziba monene, na nzela ya bilanga ya moto oyo atiaka balangi na bilamba;
Then the LORD said to Isaiah, "Go out now to meet Ahaz, you, and Shearjashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway of the Launderers' Field.
4 loba na ye: ‹ Kitisa motema, zala na kimia, kobanga te; tika ete motema na yo etungisama te mpo na bakoni mibale oyo ezali kopela: kanda makasi ya Retsini, moto ya Siri, mpe ya mwana mobali ya Remalia!
Tell him, 'Be careful, and keep calm. Do not be afraid, neither let your heart be faint because of these two tails of smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram, and of the son of Remaliah.
5 Siri, Efrayimi mpe mwana mobali ya Remalia, basaleli yo likita mpo na kobebisa yo; bazali koloba:
Because Aram, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have plotted evil against you, saying,
6 ‘Tika ete tobundisa Yuda, tokata yango na biteni, tokabola yango biso na biso mpe totia mwana mobali ya Tabeli lokola mokonzi na yango.’
"Let's go up against Judah, and tear it apart, and let's divide it among ourselves, and set up a king in its midst, even the son of Tabeel."
7 Nzokande, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Ekotikala kosalema te, ekotikala kokokisama te!
This is what the LORD says: "It shall not stand, neither shall it happen."
8 Pamba te moto ya Siri ezali Damasi, mpe moto ya Damasi ezali na yango kaka Retsini. Etikali kaka mibu tuku motoba na mitano, Efrayimi ekobebisama mpe ekozala lisusu na molongo ya mabota te.
For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within sixty-five years Ephraim shall be broken in pieces, so that it shall not be a people;
9 Moto ya Efrayimi ezali Samari, mpe moto ya Samari ezali kaka mwana mobali ya Remalia. Soki botelemi ngwi te na kondima na bino, bokolonga te kotelema liboso na bango! › »
and the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If you will not believe, surely you shall not be established.'"
10 Yawe alobaki lisusu na Akazi:
The LORD spoke again to Ahaz, saying,
11 — Senga elembo moko epai na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, ezala kati na mokili oyo eleki na bozindo to oyo eleki likolo. (Sheol h7585)
"Ask a sign of the LORD your God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above." (Sheol h7585)
12 Kasi Akazi alobaki: — Nakosenga te, nakoki komeka Yawe te.
But Ahaz said, "I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD."
13 Boye Ezayi alobaki: — Boyoka sik’oyo, bino libota ya Davidi! Ekoki kaka te mpo na bino kolembisa mitema ya bato? Boni, bolingi lisusu kolembisa motema ya Nzambe na ngai?
He said, "Listen now, house of David: Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men, that you will try the patience of my God also?
14 Ye moko Nkolo akopesa bino elembo: moseka akokoma na zemi mpe akobota mwana mobali, akopesa Ye Kombo « Emanwele. »
Therefore the LORD himself will give you a sign. Look, the virgin will conceive, and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel.
15 Mwana yango akomela kaka miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi kino tango akoyeba koboya mabe mpe kopona bolamu.
He will eat curds and honey when he knows to refuse the evil, and choose the good.
16 Kasi liboso ete mwana yango ayeba koboya mabe mpe kopona bolamu, mikili ya bakonzi mibale oyo ozali kobanga ekobebisama.
For before the child knows to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land whose two kings you abhor shall be forsaken.
17 Yawe akoyeisela yo, bato na yo mpe libota ya tata na yo mikolo oyo etikala nanu kozala te wuta Efrayimi ekabwana na Yuda: ezali nde mokonzi ya Asiri.
The LORD will bring on you, on your people, and on your father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria.
18 Na mokolo wana, Yawe akobeta piololo mpo na kobenga nzinzi wuta na miluka ya Ejipito mpe banzoyi oyo ezalaka na mokili ya Asiri;
It will happen in that day that the LORD will whistle for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
19 ekoya mpe ekovanda kati na mabwaku ya mozindo mpe na madusu ya mabanga, na banzete nyonso ya mike-mike mpe na matiti nyonso.
They shall come, and shall all rest in the desolate valleys, in the clefts of the rocks, on all thorn hedges, and on all pastures.
20 Na mokolo wana, Yawe akosalela jileti oyo akodefa na ngambo mosusu ya Efrate, elingi koloba mokonzi ya Asiri, mpo na kokokola suki ya moto na yo, suki ya makolo na yo mpe mandefu na yo.
In that day the LORD will shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.
21 Na mokolo wana, moko na moko akobokola mwana ngombe ya mwasi mpe bameme to bantaba mibale ya basi.
It shall happen in that day that a man shall keep alive a young cow, and two sheep;
22 Lokola bibwele wana ekopesaka miliki ebele, akolia manteka; mpe bato nyonso oyo bakotikala na mokili bakolia mafuta ya nzoyi.
and it shall happen, that because of the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat butter: for everyone will eat butter and honey that is left in the midst of the land.
23 Na mokolo wana, esika nyonso oyo ezalaki na banzete ya vino nkoto moko oyo ezalaki na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende ya palata, nkoto moko ekotonda na basende mpe na banzube.
It will happen in that day that every place where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silver shekels, shall be for briers and thorns.
24 Bato bakokota kuna na matolotolo mpe na bambanzi, pamba te mokili ekotonda na basende mpe na banzube.
People will go there with arrows and with bow, because all the land will be briers and thorns.
25 Bato bakoleka lisusu te na bangambo nyonso oyo bazalaki kosala bilanga na kongo, pamba te bakokoma kobanga basende mpe banzube; ngombe ekokoma kolia kuna, mpe meme ekonyata-nyata mabele na yango.
All the hills that were cultivated with the hoe, you shall not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of sheep."
