Isaiah 6
1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted; and the train of His robe filled the temple.
Lanne wa Ozyas mouri a, mwen wè Seyè a. Li te chita sou yon gwo fotèy byen wo. Ke rad li te plen tout tanp lan.
2 Above Him stood seraphim, each having six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.
Yon bann bèt vivan te kanpe fè wonn li. Yo te klere kou flanm dife. Yo chak te gen sis zèl, de zèl pou kouvri figi yo, de zèl pou kouvri pye yo, de zèl pou yo vole.
3 And they were calling out to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of Hosts; all the earth is full of His glory.”
Yo t'ap pale yonn ak lòt byen fò. Yo t'ap di: -Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, li apa! Wi, li apa! Se yon Bondye ki apa vre! Pouvwa li kouvri tout latè.
4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook, and the temple was filled with smoke.
Tout poto kay Bondye a tranble lè bèt vivan yo t'ap rele konsa a. Lafimen te plen tout anndan tanp lan.
5 Then I said: “Woe is me, for I am ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips dwelling among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of Hosts.”
Mwen di: -Nanpwen sove pou mwen! Jòdi a m'ap mouri vre! Paske tout pawòl ki soti nan bouch mwen se move pawòl. Epi m'ap viv nan mitan yon pèp ki pa janm gen bon pawòl nan bouch li. Lèfini, mwen wè Wa a, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, avèk pwòp je m'.
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a glowing coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar.
Yonn nan bèt vivan yo pran yon chabon dife tou limen ak yon pensèt sou lotèl la, li vole vin bò kote m' avèk chabon dife a nan men li.
7 And with it he touched my mouth and said: “Now that this has touched your lips, your iniquity is removed and your sin is atoned for.”
Li kole l' sou bouch mwen, epi li di m' konsa! -Sa a kole sou po bouch ou. Koulye a, ou pa gen peche ankò. Bondye padonnen tou sa ou fè ki mal.
8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying: “Whom shall I send? Who will go for Us?” And I said: “Here am I. Send me!”
Apre sa, mwen tande Seyè a ki t'ap di: -Kilès mwen ta voye la a? Kilès ki ta asepte ale pou nou? Mwen di: -Men mwen. Voye m'!
9 And He replied: “Go and tell this people, ‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’
Epi lè sa a, li di m': -Ale non. Men sa pou ou di pèp la: Louvri zòrèy nou jan nou vle, men nou p'ap konprann anyen! Louvri je nou jan nou vle, men nou p'ap wè sa k'ap rive!
10 Make the hearts of this people calloused; deafen their ears and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”
Fè lespri pèp la vin lou! Bouche zòrèy yo! Mare je yo! Konsa, yo p'ap ka tande, yo p'ap ka wè, yo p'ap ka konprann. Yo p'ap ka tounen vin jwenn mwen pou m' geri yo.
11 Then I asked: “How long, O Lord?” And He replied: “Until the cities lie ruined and without inhabitant, until the houses are left unoccupied and the land is desolate and ravaged,
Lè sa a, mwen di: -Seyè! Kilè sa va sispann? Li reponn mwen: -Lè y'a fin kraze lavil yo. Lè p'ap gen moun ankò ki rete ladan yo. Lè tout kay yo va vid, lè jaden yo va tounen savann.
12 until the LORD has driven men far away and the land is utterly forsaken.
Mwen menm, Seyè a, m'a mete tout moun deyò nan peyi a. Tout peyi a pral rete san moun ladan l'.
13 And though a tenth remains in the land, it will be burned again. As the terebinth and oak leave stumps when felled, so the holy seed will be a stump in the land.”
Menm si rete yon sèl moun sou chak dis moun nan peyi a, y'ap toujou disparèt yo. Se va tankou lè yo koupe pye kajou ak pye bwadchenn. Chouk la ase ki va rete. Chouk sa a va pouse ankò, pèp Bondye a va kanpe ankò.
