Isaiah 22
1 The burden of the valley of vision. What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops?
Maloba na Yawe na tina na lubwaku ya Emoniseli: Likambo nini lisusu ekomeli bino sik’oyo mpo ete bino nyonso bomata na likolo ya mitondo ya ndako?
2 You that are full of shouting, a tumultuous city, a joyous town, your slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.
Oh engumba etonda na loyenge, engumba etonda na makelele mpe na bisengo! Bibembe na yo ekufi na mopanga te to mpe na bitumba te.
3 All your rulers fled away together. They were bound by the archers. All who were found by you were bound together. They fled far away.
Bakambi na yo nyonso bakimaki elongo; bakangaki bango na basoda na nguya ya tolotolo. Mpe bato na yo, oyo bazalaki kokima monguna na mosika, bakangaki bango mpe bakomaki elongo bakangami.
4 Therefore I said, “Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Don’t labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
Yango wana nalobaki: « Botika kotala Ngai, botika ete nalela makasi! Bomeka kobondisa Ngai te mpo na kobebisama ya bato na Ngai! »
5 For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity from the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, in the valley of vision, a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.”
Pamba te ezali mokolo moko ya lokito ya bitumba, mokolo ya pasi makasi mpe ya somo kati na lubwaku ya Emoniseli kowuta na Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga; ezali mokolo oyo mir ya makasi ekobukana mpe makelele ya koganga ekobima na bangomba.
6 Elam carried his quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.
Mampinga ya Elami batomboli makonga, mosusu bamati na bashar mpe bampunda; Kiri abimisi nguba.
7 Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
Lubwaku na yo, oyo eleki kitoko etondi na bashar, mpe basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda batelemi-telemi na bikuke ya engumba;
8 He took away the covering of Judah; and you looked in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.
bibombamelo ya Yuda etikali lisusu te. Na mokolo wana, obalolaki miso na yo na bibundeli oyo ezalaka na Ndako ya Zamba.
9 You saw the breaches of David’s city, that they were many; and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
Bomonaki ete Engumba ya mokonzi Davidi ezali na madusu mingi kati na mir oyo ezingeli yango; boye bobombaki mayi kati na Liziba oyo ezalaka na se,
10 You counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.
botangaki motango ya bandako ya Yelusalemi, bobukaki mosusu mpo na kolendisa mir ya monene.
11 You also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you didn’t look to him who had done this, neither did you have respect for him who planned it long ago.
Bosalaki liziba mpo na kobomba mayi ya liziba ya kala kati na bamir mibale, kasi bobalolaki miso na bino te mpo na kotala Ye oyo asalaki mpe abongisaki yango wuta kala.
12 In that day, the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, called to weeping, to mourning, to baldness, and to dressing in sackcloth;
Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, azalaki kobenga bino na mokolo wana mpo ete bolela mpe bosala matanga, bomikokola suki mpe bolata saki.
13 and behold, there is joy and gladness, killing cattle and killing sheep, eating meat and drinking wine: “Let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.”
Kasi tala, ezalaki kaka bisengo mpe loyenge, koboma bangombe mpe bameme ya mibali, bantaba ya basi, kolia misuni mpe komela masanga ya vino! Bozalaki koloba: « Tika ete tolia mpe tomela, pamba te, lobi, tokokufa! »
14 Yahweh of Armies revealed himself in my ears, “Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you until you die,” says the Lord, Yahweh of Armies.
Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, ayebisaki ngai yango na matoyi na ngai moko penza: « Kino bokokufa, bokotikala kozwa bolimbisi ya lisumu oyo te, » elobi Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
15 The Lord, Yahweh of Armies says, “Go, get yourself to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,
Tala maloba oyo Nkolo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: « Kende kokuta Shebina, mobateli biloko ya ndako ya mokonzi, loba na ye:
16 ‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation for himself in the rock!”
‹ Ozali kosala nini awa, mpe nani apesi yo nzela ya kotonga kunda na yo awa lokola moto oyo azali kotimola kunda na ye na likolo mpe kotonga epemelo na ye kati na lidusu ya libanga monene?
17 Behold, Yahweh will overcome you and hurl you away violently. Yes, he will grasp you firmly.
Tala, Yawe akomi pene ya koningisa yo mpe kobwaka yo mosika, yo moto ya makasi!
18 He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be, you disgrace of your lord’s house.
Akobalola yo ndenge babalolaka ndembo mpe akobwaka yo na etando moko ya monene. Kuna nde okokufa, mpe bashar na yo ya lokumu ekotikala, yo oyo osalaka soni ya ndako ya mokonzi na yo.
19 I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down from your station.
Nakolongola yo na mosala, mpe lokumu na yo ekosila.
20 It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,
Na mokolo wana, nakobengisa mosali na Ngai, Eliakimi, mwana mobali ya Ilikia.
21 and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
Nakolatisa ye nzambala na yo, nakokanga ye mokaba na yo mpe nakopesa bokonzi na yo na maboko na ye. Akozala tata mpo na bavandi ya Yelusalemi mpe mpo na ndako ya Yuda.
22 I will lay the key of David’s house on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.
Nakotia fungola ya ndako ya Davidi na mapeka na ye: oyo akofungola, moto moko te akokanga yango; mpe oyo akokanga, moto moko te akofungola yango.
23 I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for a throne of glory to his father’s house.
Nakopika ye lokola sete na esika ya malamu; akozala lokola kiti ya bokonzi ya lokumu mpo na ndako ya tata na ye.
24 They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the pitchers.
Nkembo nyonso ya ndako ya tata na ye ekozala likolo na ye: kobanda na bakitani na ye kino na bana na bango nyonso, lokola bisalelo oyo: kobanda na bakopo ya mike kino na mbeki ya minene.
25 “In that day,” says Yahweh of Armies, “the nail that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for Yahweh has spoken it.”
Na mokolo wana, elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, sete oyo bapikaki na esika ya malamu ekolongwa, ekobukana mpe ekokweya; mpe mokumba oyo amemaki ekokweya. › » Yawe nde alobaki.
