< Isaiah 16 >
1 Send the lamb of the ruler of the land from the rock to the wilderness, — unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
Voye mouton tribi a bay gouvènè peyi a, soti nan Sela pa wout dezè a, jis rive nan mòn a fi Sion an.
2 And it shall be [that] as a wandering bird, [as] a scattered nest, so shall the daughters of Moab be at the fords of the Arnon.
Li va rive ke tankou zwazo k ap sove ale, oswa k ap gaye sòti nan nich yo, fi Moab yo va parèt kote pou janbe Arnon an.
3 Bring in counsel, execute justice; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of noonday; hide the outcasts, discover not the fugitive.
“Bannou konsèy! Fè yon desizyon! Voye lonbraj ou tankou lannwit nan gran lajounen! Kache sila ki san abri yo! Pa trayi refijye a!
4 Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the waster. For the extortioner is at an end, the wasting hath ceased, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.
Kite refijye Moab yo rete avè w! Devni yon kote pou yo kache kont destriktè a.” Paske opresè yo p ap reyisi. Destriksyon an va sispann. Opresè ap disparèt nèt nan peyi a.
5 And a throne shall be established in mercy: and in the tent of David there shall sit upon it, in truth, one judging and seeking justice and hastening righteousness.
Yon twòn va etabli avèk lanmou dous, e yon jij va chita ak fidelite sou li nan tant David la. Li va chache jistis e va fè vit pou etabli ladwati.
6 We have heard of the arrogance of Moab, — [he is] very proud, — of his pride, and his arrogance, and his wrath: his pratings are vain.
Nou konn tande afè ògèy Moab la, yon ògèy ki depase; afè awogans li an, ògèy li a, ak gwo kòlè li a. Pawòl anfle ògèy li pa anyen.
7 Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab; every one of them shall howl. For the foundations of Kirhareseth shall ye mourn, verily afflicted.
Pou sa, Moab va rele anmwey; tout sila nan Moab yo va plenyen anlè. Ou va plenyen pou gato rezen a Kir-Haréseth kon sila konplètman frape yo.
8 For the fields of Heshbon languish, the vine of Sibmah; the lords of the nations have broken down its choice plants: they reached unto Jaazer, they wandered [through] the wilderness; its shoots stretched out, they went beyond the sea.
Paske chan a Hesbon yo te fennen, ansanm ak chan rezen a Sibma yo. Mèt nasyon yo te kraze gwo grap ki te pi chwazi li yo, ki te rive jis Jaezer e te lonje kote dezè yo. Branch li yo te gaye nèt e te menm pase lòtbò lanmè a.
9 Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jaazer for the vine of Sibmah; with my tears will I water thee, Heshbon, and Elealeh, for a cry is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest.
Pou sa, Mwen va kriye byen fò pou Jaezer, pou chan Sibma a. Mwen va tranpe nou nèt ak dlo k ap sòti nan zye m, O Hesbon ak Élealé, paske sou fwi gran sezon nou yo ak rekòlt nou yo gen gwo lagè.
10 And joy and gladness is taken away out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there is no singing, neither is there shouting: the treaders tread out no wine in the presses, I have made the cry [of the winepress] to cease.
Kè kontan ak lajwa sou chan fètil la ale. Nan chan rezen yo tou, p ap genyen chante a, ni gwo kri egzaltasyon yo, ni ouvriye k ap foule diven anba pye li nan peze yo. Mwen te fè kriye sa yo sispann.
11 Therefore my bowels sound like a harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kirheres.
Pou sa, kè mwen sone tankou ap pou Moab ak santiman anndan mwen pou Kir-Haréseth.
12 And it shall come to pass, when Moab shall appear, shall weary himself on the high place, and enter into his sanctuary to pray, that he shall not prevail.
Konsa, li va rive ke lè Moab prezante tèt li, lè l fin fatige kò l sou wo plas li e rive nan sanktiyè li a pou fè lapriyè, li p ap reyisi.
13 This is the word which Jehovah hath spoken from of old concerning Moab.
Se pawòl sa a ke SENYÈ a te pale avan sa sou Moab.
14 And now Jehovah speaketh saying, Within three years, as the years of a hired servant, and the glory of Moab shall be brought to nothing, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be small, few, of no account.
Men koulye a, SENYÈ a pale e di: “Avan twazan fin rive, jan yon anplwaye ta konte yo, glwa a Moab la va vin degrade ansanm ak tout gwo kantite pèp li a, e retay li va vin piti e san fòs.”
