Isaiah 60
1 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.
“Leve, briye; paske limyè ou fin parèt e glwa a SENYÈ a fin leve sou ou.
2 For behold, darkness covers the earth, and thick darkness is over the peoples; but the LORD will rise upon you, and His glory will appear over you.
Paske gade byen, tenèb va kouvri latè e pwofon tenèb tout pèp yo. Men SENYÈ a va vin leve sou ou, e glwa li va parèt sou ou.
3 Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
Nasyon yo va vin kote limyè ou a, e wa yo nan klète lè ou leve a.
4 Lift up your eyes and look around: They all gather and come to you; your sons will come from afar, and your daughters will be carried on the arm.
“Leve zye ou toupatou e gade; yo tout rasanble ansanm; yo vin kote ou. Fis ou yo va vini soti lwen, e fi ou yo va pote nan bra yo.
5 Then you will look and be radiant, and your heart will tremble and swell with joy, because the riches of the sea will be brought to you, and the wealth of the nations will come to you.
Epi ou va wè, ou va plen ak limyè; kè ou va kontan e ou va rejwi. Paske abondans lanmè a va vire vè ou; gran richès a nasyon yo va rive kote ou.
6 Caravans of camels will cover your land, young camels of Midian and Ephah, and all from Sheba will come, bearing gold and frankincense and proclaiming the praises of the LORD.
Anpil chamo va kouvri ou, jenn chamo a Madian ak Épha yo. Tout sila soti Séba yo va vini. Yo va pote lò ak lansan, e yo va pote bòn nouvèl a, lwanj a SENYÈ a.
7 All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered to you; the rams of Nebaioth will serve you and go up on My altar with acceptance; I will adorn My glorious house.
Tout bann mouton Kédar yo va rasanble kote ou. Belye a Nebajoth yo va sèvi ou; yo va vin aksepte pou monte sou lotèl Mwen an, e Mwen va glorifye kay Mwen an ki plen lonè ak mayifisans.
8 Who are these who fly like clouds, like doves to their shelters?
“Se kilès sa yo ki vole tankou yon nwaj ak tankou toutrèl vè fenèt pa yo?
9 Surely the islands will wait for Me, with the ships of Tarshish in the lead, to bring your children from afar, with their silver and gold, to the honor of the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, for He has glorified you.
Anverite, peyi kot yo va tann Mwen; gwo bato Tarsis yo va vini premyèman pou mennen fis ou yo soti lwen; ajan ak lò yo avèk yo, pou non SENYÈ Bondye ou a e pou Sila Ki Sen an Israël la, akoz Li te bay ou glwa.
10 Foreigners will rebuild your walls, and their kings will serve you. Although I struck you in anger, yet in favor I will show you mercy.
“Etranje yo va bati, fòtifye miray ou yo, epi wa pa yo va fè sèvis pa yo. Paske nan kòlè Mwen, Mwen te frape ou e nan gras Mwen, Mwen te fè ou mizerikòd.
11 Your gates will always stand open; they will never be shut, day or night, so that the wealth of the nations may be brought into you, with their kings being led in procession.
Pòtay ou yo va vin louvri nèt tout tan; yo p ap fèmen ni lajounen, ni lannwit, pou yo kapab pote bay ou richès a tout nasyon yo, ak wa yo kon kaptif.
12 For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly destroyed.
Paske nasyon ak wayòm ki p ap sèvi ou a va peri; wi, nasyon sa yo va fin detwi nèt.
13 The glory of Lebanon will come to you— its cypress, elm, and boxwood together— to adorn the place of My sanctuary, and I will glorify the place of My feet.
“Glwa a Liban an va rive kote ou, bwa pichpen an, bwa sèd ak bwa blan pou anbeli plas sanktyè Mwen an. Mwen va fè plas pye Mwen yo vin plen glwa.
14 The sons of your oppressors will come and bow down to you; all who reviled you will fall facedown at your feet and call you the City of the LORD, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
Fis a sila ki te aflije ou yo va vin bese devan ou e tout sila ki te meprize ou yo va bese yo menm devan pla pye ou. Yo va rele ou vil SENYÈ a, Sion a Sila Ki Sen an Israël la.
15 Whereas you have been forsaken and despised, with no one passing through, I will make you an everlasting pride, a joy from age to age.
“Konsi, ou te abandone e rayi, pou pèsòn pa pase ladann, Mwen va fè ou vin plen ak majeste, yon objè lajwa de jenerasyon an jenerasyon.
16 You will drink the milk of nations and nurse at the breasts of royalty; you will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
Anplis, ou va souse lèt a nasyon yo, e ou va souse tete a wa yo. Konsa, ou va konnen ke Mwen, SENYÈ a, se Sovè ou e Redanmtè ou, Sila Ki Pwisan a Jacob la.
17 Instead of bronze I will bring you gold; I will bring silver in place of iron, bronze instead of wood, and iron instead of stones. I will appoint peace as your governor and righteousness as your ruler.
Olye bwonz, Mwen va pote lò; olye fè, Mwen va pote ajan; olye bwa, Mwen va pote bwonz e olye wòch, Mwen va pote fè. Anplis, Mwen va fè lapè vin chèf ou e ladwati kon konseye ou.
18 No longer will violence be heard in your land, nor ruin or destruction within your borders. But you will name your walls Salvation and your gates Praise.
Vyolans p ap tande ankò nan peyi ou, ni devastasyon oswa destriksyon anndan lizyè ou; men ou va rele miray ou yo: “Sali” e pòtay ou yo: “Lwanj”.
19 No longer will the sun be your light by day, nor the brightness of the moon shine on your night; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your splendor.
Ou p ap sèvi solèy la pou limyè lajounen ankò, ni klate lalin a nan pou ba ou limyè; men ou va gen SENYÈ a kon yon limyè etènèl e Bondye ou kon glwa ou.
20 Your sun will no longer set, and your moon will not wane; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your sorrow will cease.
Solèy ou p ap bese ankò, ni lalin nan p ap febli; paske ou va gen SENYÈ a kon limyè etènèl e jou ke ou kriye ak gwo doulè yo va fini.
21 Then all your people will be righteous; they will possess the land forever; they are the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, so that I may be glorified.
Epi tout moun ou yo va dwat, Yo va posede peyi a jis pou tout tan; branch ke M te plante a, zèv a men M yo, pou M kapab resevwa glwa.
22 The least of you will become a thousand, and the smallest a mighty nation. I am the LORD; in its time I will accomplish it quickly.
Pi piti a va devni yon gran pèp e pi piti menm nan, yon nasyon pwisan. Mwen, SENYÈ a va fè l prese rive nan lè l.”
