Isaiah 63
1 Who is this, who arrives from Edom with dyed garments from Bozrah? This is the Handsome One in his robe, advancing by the fullness of his strength. It is I, the Speaker of Justice, and I am the Fighter for Salvation.
Azali nani, ye oyo awuti na Edomi, na Botsira, na bilamba ya motane? Azali nani, ye oyo alati bilamba ya lokumu, oyo azali kotambola lokola elombe, mpo ayebi ete azalaka makasi? « Ezali nde Ngai; nakataka makambo na bosembo, natonda na nguya mpo na kobikisa. »
2 So then, why is your garment red, and why are your vestments like the ones of those who tread the winepress?
Mpo na nini bilamba na yo ezali motane lokola bilamba ya mokamoli vino?
3 I have trod the winepress alone. And among the nations, there is no man beside me. I have trampled on them in my fury, and I have tread them down in my wrath. And so, their blood has been sprinkled on my vestments, and I have stained all my garments.
« Nazalaki kaka ngai moko kati na ekamolelo mpo na kokamola vino, moko te kati na bato ya bikolo nyonso azalaki elongo na ngai. Nanyataki-nyataki bango na kanda na ngai mpe nakamolaki bango na kanda na ngai ya makasi; makila na bango epumbwelaki ngai na bilamba mpe ebebisaki bilamba na ngai nyonso.
4 For the day of vengeance is in my heart. The year of my redemption has arrived.
Pamba te, na motema na ngai, ezalaki nde mokolo ya kozongisa mabe na mabe, mpe mobu na ngai ya kosikola ekokaki.
5 I gazed around, and there was no one to assist. I sought, and there was no one who would help. And so, my own arm has saved for me, and my own wrath itself has assisted me.
Natalaki, kasi namonaki moto te oyo akosunga; nakamwaki ete moto azalaki te mpo na kosunga ngai! Bongo, loboko na ngai moko ebikisaki ngai, mpe kanda na ngai ya makasi esungaki ngai.
6 And I have trampled the peoples in my fury, and I have inebriated them with my indignation, and I have torn down their strength to the ground.
Nanyataki-nyataki bikolo na kanda na ngai, nalangwisaki bango na kanda na ngai ya makasi mpe nasopaki makila na bango na mabele. »
7 I will remember the compassion of the Lord, the praise of the Lord over all that the Lord has bestowed on us, and over the multitude of his good things for the house of Israel, which he has granted to them according to his leniency, and according to the multitude of his mercies.
Nakotatola boboto ya Yawe, nakosanzola Ye mpo na misala na Ye, kolanda nyonso oyo Yawe asalaki mpo na biso; solo, asalelaki libota ya Isalaele makambo ebele ya kitoko kolanda boboto mpe bolingo na Ye ya monene.
8 And he said: “Yet truly, these are my people, sons who have not been disowned.” And he became their Savior.
Alobaki: « Solo, bazali bato na Ngai, bazali bana oyo bakosaka Ngai te! » Yango wana, Yawe akomaki Mobikisi na bango.
9 Throughout all their tribulation, he was not troubled, for the Angel of his presence saved them. With his love, and by his leniency, he has redeemed them, and he has carried them and lifted them up, throughout all the days of the ages.
Tango nyonso bazalaki na pasi, Ye mpe azalaki koyoka pasi na motema; boye, anjelu oyo atelemaka liboso na Ye abikisaki bango; asikolaki bango na bolingo mpe na mawa na Ye, akongolaki bango mpe azalaki komema bango mikolo nyonso ya tango ya kala.
10 But they themselves provoked to wrath and afflicted his Holy Spirit, and he was turned to be for them like an enemy, and he himself went to war against them.
Nzokande, wana batombokelaki Ye mpe bayokisaki Molimo Mosantu na Ye mawa, abalukelaki bango mpe akomaki monguna na bango; mpe Ye moko akomaki kobundisa bango.
11 And he remembered the days of ancient times, the days of Moses and his people. Where is he who led them out of the sea, with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who placed his Holy Spirit in their midst?
Boye, bato na Ye bakanisaki mikolo ya tango ya kala, mikolo ya tango ya Moyize: Wapi Ye oyo akatisaki bango ebale monene, elongo na mobateli bibwele ya etonga na Ye? Wapi Ye oyo atiaki kati na bango Molimo Mosantu na Ye?
12 He led Moses by the right hand, with the arm of his majesty. He split the waters before them, in order to make an everlasting name for himself.
Ye oyo atindaki ete loboko na Ye ya nkembo ezala elongo na loboko ya mobali ya Moyize, Ye oyo akabolaki mayi ya ebale monene liboso na bango mpo na kopesa Kombo na Ye lokumu mpo na libela;
13 He led them through the abyss, like a horse which does not stumble, in the desert.
Ye oyo atambolisaki bango kati na mozindo? Lokola mpunda kati na esobe, babetaki libaku te;
14 Like an animal who descends to an open field, the Spirit of the Lord was their guide. Thus did you lead your people, in order to make a glorious name for yourself.
lokola bibwele oyo ezali kokita na lubwaku, Molimo na Yawe apesaki bango bopemi. Ezali ndenge wana nde okambaki bato na Yo mpo na kopesa lokumu na Kombo na Yo.
15 Gaze down from heaven, and behold from your holy habitation and from your glory. Where is your zeal, and your strength, the fullness of your heart and of your compassion? They have held themselves back from me.
Tala wuta na likolo mpe mona wuta na ndako na Yo ya bule mpe ya nkembo: Wapi bolingo na Yo, oyo eleka ndelo mpe nguya na Yo? Bolingo mpe mawa na Yo mpo na biso esili?
16 For you are our Father, and Abraham has not known us, and Israel has been ignorant of us. You are our Father, O Lord our Redeemer. Your name is beyond all ages.
Nzokande, Yo nde ozali Tata na biso; atako Abrayami ayebi biso te to Isalaele andimi biso te; kasi Yo, Yawe, ozali Tata na biso, Kombo na Yo ezali: Mosikoli na biso ya tango nyonso.
17 Why have you allowed us to stray from your ways, O Lord? Why have you hardened our heart, so that we do not fear you? Return, for the sake of your servants, the tribes of your inheritance.
Yawe, mpo na nini kotika biso koyengayenga mosika ya nzela na Yo? Mpo na nini kokomisa mitema na biso makasi mpo ete totosa Yo te? Zongisa motema sima mpo na bolamu ya basali na Yo, mabota ya libula na Yo!
18 They have possessed your holy people as if it were nothing. Our enemies have trampled your sanctuary.
Bato na Yo bazwaki esika na Yo ya bule kaka mpo na mwa tango moke; kasi sik’oyo, banguna na biso bakweyisi Ndako na Yo ya bule!
19 We have become as we were in the beginning, when you did not rule over us, and when we were not called by your name.
Wuta kala, tozalaka bato na Yo; kasi tokomi lokola bato oyo okambaka lisusu te, lokola bato oyo babengami na Kombo na Yo te.
