< Isaiah 27 >

1 In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the swift serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.
Na mokolo wana, Yawe akopesa etumbu na Leviatani, nyoka oyo ekimaka, na Leviatani, nyoka ya somo, na nzela ya mopanga na Ye ya minu, mopanga na Ye ya monene mpe ya nguya; akoboma elima ya ebale monene.
2 In that day: A vineyard of wine, sing ye unto it.
Na mokolo wana, bakoloba: « Boyemba nzembo mpo na nzete ya vino ya kitoko:
3 I the LORD do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.
Ngai Yawe, nabatelaka yango, nasopelaka yango mayi tango nyonso, nakengelaka yango butu mpe moyi mpo ete moto moko te abebisa yango.
4 Fury is not in me: would that the briers and thorns were against me in battle! I would march upon them, I would burn them together.
Nazali lisusu na kanda te. Ah, soki ezalaki kaka na banzube mpe na basende mpo na kobundisa Ngai, nde natambolaki likolo na yango na bitumba mpe nabwakaki yango nyonso na moto.
5 Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; [yea], let him make peace with me.
Kasi tika ete bakimela epai na Ngai lokola ndako batonga makasi, tika ete baluka kosala kimia elongo na Ngai; solo, tika ete baluka kosala kimia elongo na Ngai! »
6 In days to come shall Jacob take root; Israel shall blossom and bud: and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
Na mikolo oyo ekoya, Jakobi akozwa misisa, Isalaele akobimisa bafololo mpe mito, mpe akotondisa mokili na bambuma na ye.
7 Hath he smitten him as he smote those that smote him? or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that were slain by him?
Boni, Yawe abetaki ye te ndenge abetaki bato oyo babetaki ye? Boni, abomaki ye te ndenge abomaki bato oyo babomaki ye?
8 In measure, when thou sendest her away, thou dost contend with her; he hath removed [her] with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.
Apesaki bango etumbu na kotelemela mpe na kobengana. Alongolaki bango na mopepe na Ye ya makasi, kaka na mokolo moko ya mopepe na Ye ya este.
9 Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, [so that] the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.
Ezali na nzela wana nde mabe ya Jakobi ekolimbisama, mpe tala oyo ekozala mbuma ya bolimbisi masumu na ye: akobuka mabanga nyonso ya etumbelo mpo ete ekoma lokola mabanga ya pembe oyo babuka-buka; mpe likonzi moko te ya Ashera to etumbelo ya malasi ya ansa ekotikala.
10 For the defenced city is solitary, an habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.
Engumba ya makasi etikali pamba lokola lopango oyo basundola, babosana mpe etikala pamba lokola esobe; mwana ngombe ya mobali ekokoma kolia mpe kolala kuna, bongo ekolia ata makasa ya bitape na yango.
11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, and set them on fire: for it is a people of no understanding; therefore he that made them will not have compassion upon them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour.
Tango bitape na yango ekokawuka, ekobukana; basi bakoya kotia yango na moto. Mpo ete bato oyo bazangi mayele, yango wana Mokeli na bango ayokelaki bango mawa te, Mozalisi na bango atalisaki bango ngolu na Ye te.
12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall beat off [his fruit], from the flood of the River unto the brook of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
Na tango wana, Yawe akotuta ble wuta na ngambo ya ebale (Efrate) kino na mayi oyo etiolaka makasi na bangomba ya Ejipito. Boye, bino bana ya Isalaele, Yawe akolokota bino moko na moko mpo na kosangisa bino.
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and they that were outcasts in the land of Egypt; and they shall worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
Na mokolo wana, bakobeta kelelo oyo ya monene; bato oyo bazalaki kobebisama na mokili ya Asiri mpe oyo bakendeki na bowumbu na Ejipito bakoya mpe bakogumbamela Yawe na ngomba ya bule, na Yelusalemi.
