Zacharias 2
1 And I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
Konsa, Mwen te leve zye m gade, e vwala, te gen yon nonm ak yon lign mezi nan men l.
2 And I said to him, Whither goest thou? And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth of it, and what is the length of it.
Konsa mwen te di: “Ki kote ou prale la a?” Li te di mwen: “Pou mezire Jérusalem, pou wè ki lajè li genyen, ak longè li.”
3 And, behold, the angel that spoke with me stood [by], and another angel went forth to meet him,
Epi vwala zanj ki t ap pale avèk mwen an te sòti, e yon lòt zanj te vin parèt pou rankontre avè l.
4 and spoke to him, saying, Run and speak to that young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be fully inhabited by reason of the abundance of men and cattle in the midst of her.
Li te di li: “Kouri pale ak jennonm sa a, pou di l: ‘Jérusalem va vin plen moun tankou vilaj ki san miray, akoz kantite moun ak bèt k ap rete ladann.
5 And I will be to her, saith the Lord, a wall of fire round about, and I will be for a glory in the midst of her.
Paske Mwen menm’, deklare SENYÈ a: ‘Mwen va devni yon miray dife k ap antoure fi a, e Mwen va laglwa nan mitan l.
6 Ho, ho, flee from the land of the north, saith the Lord: for I will gather you from the four winds of heaven, saith the Lord,
“‘Vini! Vini! Sove ale kite peyi nò a,’ deklare SENYÈ a: ‘paske Mwen te gaye nou tankou kat van syèl yo,’ deklare SENYÈ a.
7 [even] to Sion: deliver yourselves, ye that dwell [with] the daughter of Babylon.
‘Vini Sion! Kouri chape poul nou, nou ki rete ak fi a Babylone nan.’
8 For thus saith the Lord Almighty; After the glory has he sent me to the nations that spoiled you: for he that touches you is as one that touches the apple of his eye.
Paske konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: ‘Dèyè glwa pa Li a, Li te voye mwen kont nasyon k ap piyaje nou yo, paske sila ki touche ou a, te touche ponm de zye tèt Li.
9 For, behold, I bring my hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to them that serve them: and ye shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me.
Paske, gade byen, Mwen va souke men M sou yo, e yo va vin piyaj pou sila ki te sèvi yo. Epi konsa, ou va konnen ke se SENYÈ dèzame yo ki te voye Mwen.
10 Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Sion: for, behold, I come, and will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord.
Chante ak lajwa e fè kè ou kontan, O fi a Sion an! Paske, gade byen, Mwen ap vini, e Mwen va rete nan mitan nou,’ deklare SENYÈ a.
11 And many nations shall flee for refuge to the Lord in that day, and they shall be for a people to him, and they shall dwell in the midst of thee: and thou shalt know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to thee.
Anpil nasyon va vin jwenn yo ak SENYÈ a nan jou sa a, e va devni pèp Mwen. Epi Mwen va demere nan mitan nou, e nou va konnen ke se SENYÈ dèzame yo ki te voye Mwen kote nou.
12 And the Lord shall inherit Juda his portion in the holy [land], and he will yet choose Jerusalem.
SENYÈ a va posede Juda kon pòsyon pa Li nan peyi sen an, e Li va chwazi Jérusalem ankò.
13 Let all flesh fear before the Lord: for he has risen up from his holy clouds.
Se pou nou fè silans, tout chè, devan SENYÈ a; paske Li gen tan leve nan abitasyon sen Li an.”
