Mishe 5
1 Oh engumba oyo elinga bitumba, sangisa basoda na yo, pamba te bazingeli biso! Bakobeta mokambi ya Isalaele fimbu na matama.
Nowe assemble thy garisons, O daughter of garisons: he hath layed siege against vs: they shall smite the iudge of Israel with a rod vpon the cheeke.
2 Bongo yo, Beteleemi Efrata, atako ozali moke kati na bingumba ya Yuda, ye oyo akokonza Isalaele akowuta kati na yo. Ebandeli na Ye ezala wuta kala penza, wuta na ebandeli ya tango.
And thou Beth-leem Ephrathah art litle to bee among the thousandes of Iudah, yet out of thee shall he come forth vnto me, that shalbe the ruler in Israel: whose goings forth haue bene from the beginning and from euerlasting.
3 Yango wana, Yawe akosundola Isalaele kino tango mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota akobota, mpe ndambo ya bandeko na ye, oyo bakotikala bakozonga epai ya bandeko na bango, bana ya Isalaele.
Therefore will he giue them vp, vntill the time that shee which shall beare, shall trauaile: then the remnant of their brethren shall returne vnto the children of Israel.
4 Akotelema mpe akobatela bibwele na ye na nguya na Yawe, na lokumu ya Kombo ya Nzambe na ye; mpe bakovanda na kimia, pamba te sango ya lokumu ya kombo na ye ekopanzana mokili mobimba.
And he shall stand, and feed in the strength of the Lord, and in the maiestie of the Name of the Lord his God, and they shall dwel still: for now shall he be magnified vnto the ends of the world.
5 Boye, akozala kimia na bango! Tango mampinga ya Asiri bakokota na makasi kati na mokili na biso mpe na bandako na biso, oyo batonga makasi, tokotindela bango babateli sambo ya bibwele mpe bakambi mwambe ya bato mpo na kobundisa bango.
And hee shall be our peace when Asshur shall come into our lande: when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seuen shepheardes, and eight principall men.
6 Bakokamba mokili ya Asiri mpe ya Nimirodi na mopanga. Boye, akokangola biso na bokonzi ya mampinga ya Asiri tango bakokota na makasi na mabele na biso mpe na bandelo na yango.
And they shall destroy Asshur with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with their swordes: thus shall he deliuer vs from Asshur, when hee commeth into our lande, and when he shall tread within our borders.
7 Batikali ya Jakobi bakozala, kati na bikolo ebele lokola mamwe oyo ewuti epai na Yawe, mpe na likolo ya matiti lokola londende oyo ekweyaka na makasi ya moto te to mpe etalelaka moto te.
And the remnant of Iaakob shalbe among many people, as a dewe from the Lord, and as the showres vpon the grasse, that waiteth not for man, nor hopeth in the sonnes of Adam.
8 Batikali ya Jakobi bakozala kati na mabota, na kati-kati ya bikolo ebele, lokola nkosi kati na banyama ya zamba, lokola mwana nkosi kati na etonga ya bameme: tango elekaka kati na etonga ya bameme, ekangaka mpe epasolaka yango, mpe moto oyo akoki kokangola yango azalaka te.
And the remnant of Iaakob shalbe among the Gentiles in the middes of many people, as the lyon among the beastes of the forest, and as the lyons whelpe among the flockes of sheepe, who when he goeth thorow, treadeth downe and teareth in pieces, and none can deliuer.
9 Tika ete loboko na yo elonga banguna na yo, mpe bayini na yo nyonso babebisama nye!
Thine hand shall bee lift vp vpon thine aduersaries, and all thine enemies shalbe cut off.
10 « Na mokolo wana, » elobi Yawe, « nakobebisa bashar mpe bampunda ya mokili na yo,
And it shall come to passe in that day, sayth the Lord, that I will cut off thine horses out of the middes of thee, and I will destroy thy charets.
11 nakobebisa bingumba ya mokili na yo mpe nakokweyisa bandako na yo, oyo batonga makasi;
And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and ouerthrowe all thy strong holdes.
12 nakobebisa misala na yo nyonso ya kindoki, mpe okotikala lisusu na bato ya soloka te;
And I will cut off thine enchanters out of thine hande: and thou shalt haue no more southsayers.
13 nakobebisa banzambe ya bikeko oyo ezali kati na yo, mpe okofukamela lisusu te bikeko oyo maboko na yo esilaki kosala;
Thine idoles also will I cut off, and thine images out of the middes of thee: and thou shalt no more worship the woorke of thine hands.
14 nakobebisa makonzi ya bule ya nzambe Ashera oyo ezali kati na yo mpe nakobebisa bingumba na yo.
And I wil plucke vp thy groues out of the middes of thee: so will I destroy thine enemies.
15 Na kanda na Ngai ya makasi, nakozongisa mabe na mabe na bikolo oyo etosaki Ngai te. »
And I will execute a vegeance in my wrath and indignation vpon the heathen, which they haue not heard.
