Amos 9
1 I saw the Lord stationed by the side of the altar, giving blows to the tops of the pillars so that the doorsteps were shaking: and he said, I will let all of them be broken with earth-shocks; I will put the last of them to the sword: if any one of them goes in flight he will not get away, not one of them will be safe.
Mwen fè yon vizyon, mwen wè Seyè a kanpe sou lotèl la. Li di konsa: -Frape tèt poto tanp lan jouk tout galeri a tranble. Kraze tèt poto yo pou yo tonbe an miyèt moso sou tèt moun yo. Rès ki pa mouri a, m'ap touye yo nan lagè. Yo yonn p'ap chape, yo yonn p'ap sove.
2 Even if they go deep into the underworld, my hand will take them up from there; if they go up to heaven, I will get them down: (Sheol h7585)
Menm si yo fouye twou pou yo antre nan peyi kote mò yo ye a, m'ap rale yo met deyò. Menm si yo ta moute anwo nan syèl la, m'ap rale yo desann. (Sheol h7585)
3 Though they take cover on the top of Carmel, I will go in search of them and get them out; though they keep themselves from my eyes in the bed of the sea, I will give orders to the great snake there and he will give them a bite:
Si y' al kache sou tèt mòn Kamèl, m'ap chache yo, m'ap mete men sou yo. Si y' al kache pou mwen nan fon lanmè, m'ap bay gwo sèpan lanmè a lòd pou l' mòde yo.
4 And though they are taken away as prisoners by their attackers, even there will I give orders to the sword to put them to death: my eyes will be fixed on them for evil and not for good.
Si lènmi fè yo prizonye pou l' ta mennen yo ale kite peyi yo a, m'ap bay lòd touye yo. M'ap voye je m' sou yo. Men, fwa sa a, se p'ap pou byen yo, se va pou malè yo.
5 For the Lord, the God of armies, is he at whose touch the land is turned to water, and everyone in it will be given up to sorrow; all of it will be overflowing like the River, and will go down again like the River of Egypt;
Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, ap annik manyen latè, latè ap pran tranble. Tout moun ki rete sou latè ap nan lapenn. Latè ap moute, l'ap gonfle, epi l'ap bese tankou dlo larivyè Nil.
6 It is he who makes his rooms in the heaven, basing his arch on the earth; whose voice goes out to the waters of the sea, and sends them flowing over the face of the earth; the Lord is his name.
Seyè a bati kay li anwo nan syèl la. Li mete vout syèl la anlè latè. Li rale dlo lanmè a, li vide l' sou tout latè. Yo rele li Seyè. Wi, se konsa yo rele l'.
7 Are you not as the children of the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel? says the Lord. Have I not taken Israel up out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Aramaeans from Kir?
Men sa Seyè a di ankò: Nou menm, moun Izrayèl yo, mwen konsidere nou koulye a menm jan ak moun Letiopi yo. Se mwen menm, pa vre, ki te fè pèp Izrayèl la soti kite peyi Lejip? Se pa mwen menm tou ki te fè moun Filisti yo soti kite lil Lakrèt, epi ki te fè moun Siri yo soti lavil Kir?
8 See, the eyes of the Lord are on the evil kingdom, and I will put an end to it in all the earth; but I will not send complete destruction on Jacob, says the Lord.
Mwen voye je m' sou pèp Izrayèl la, mwen wè jan yo lage kò yo nan fè sa ki mal. Mwen pral disparèt yo sou latè. Men, mwen p'ap fin touye tout pitit Jakòb yo nèt. Non. Mwen pa ka fè sa. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki di sa.
9 For see, I will give orders, and I will have Israel moved about among all the nations, as grain is moved about by the shaking of the tray, but not the smallest seed will be dropped on the earth.
Men, mwen pral pase yon lòd. Mwen pral vannen moun Izrayèl ki nan mitan lòt nasyon yo tankou yo vannen grenn nan laye. Pa menm yon bon grenn p'ap tonbe atè.
10 All those sinners among my people will be put to the sword who say, Evil will not overtake us or come face to face with us.
Tout moun nan pèp la k'ap fè sa ki mal pral mouri nan lagè. Yo tout k'ap plede di: O wi, Bondye p'ap kite malè rive nou, ni li p'ap kite malè tonbe sou nou, yo tout pral mouri nan lagè.
11 In that day I will put up the tent of David which has come down, and make good its broken places; and I will put up again his damaged walls, building it up as in the past;
Seyè a di: Yon jou gen pou rive! Jou sa a, m'a mete peyi wa David la kanpe ankò sou de pye l'. Koulye a li tankou yon kay k'ap fin kraze. Lè sa a, m'a repare tout kote ki fann yo. M'a refè miray ki te fin kraze yo. M'ap rebati peyi a jan l' te ye nan tan lontan an.
12 So that the rest of Edom may be their heritage, and all the nations who have been named by my name, says the Lord, who is doing this.
Konsa, pèp Izrayèl la va pran posesyon pòsyon ki rete nan peyi Edon an. Y'a donminen ankò sou lòt nasyon mwen te fè yo. Se Seyè a ki di sa, se li menm menm k'ap fè sa rive konsa!
13 See, the days will come, says the Lord, when the ploughman will overtake him who is cutting the grain, and the crusher of the grapes him who is planting seed; and sweet wine will be dropping from the mountains, and the hills will be turned into streams of wine.
Jou yo ap vini. Lè sa a, yo p'ap kò fin ranmase rekòt, y'ap gen tan ap pare tè pou plante ankò. Yo p'ap kò fin kraze rezen pou fè diven, y'ap gen tan ap pare pou mete pye rezen nan tè ankò. Diven byen dous ap koule sou tout mòn yo, l'ap koule desann sou tout ti mòn yo. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
14 And I will let the fate of my people Israel be changed, and they will be building up again the waste towns and living in them; they will again be planting vine-gardens and taking the wine for their drink; and they will make gardens and get the fruit of them.
M'ap mennen pèp mwen an tounen nan peyi l' ankò. Y'a rebati lavil ki te fin kraze yo, y'a rete ladan yo. Y'a plante jaden rezen, y'a bwè diven. Y'a fè bèl jaden, y'a manje rekòt jaden yo.
15 And I will have them planted in their land, and never again will they be uprooted from their land which I have given them, says the Lord your God.
M'a plante pèp mwen an nan peyi yo a, nan peyi mwen te ba yo a. Pesonn p'ap janm ka derasinen yo ankò. Se Seyè a, Bondye a, ki pale.
