Isaiah 19

1 The burden of Egypt. Behold, Jehovah rideth upon a swift cloud, and cometh to Egypt; and the idols of Egypt are moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt melteth in the midst of it.

Pwofesi konsènan Égypte la. “Gade byen, SENYÈ a monte sou yon nwaj rapid pou L rive Égypte. Zidòl Égypte yo va tranble nan prezans Li; kè Ejipsyen yo va fann anndan yo.

2 And I will incite the Egyptians against the Egyptians; and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbour; city against city, kingdom against kingdom.

Pou sa, Mwen va eksite Ejipsyen vin kont Ejipsyen. Yo chak va goumen kont frè pa yo, e yo chak kont vwazen yo; vil kont vil e wayòm kont wayòm.

3 And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst of it, and I will destroy the counsel thereof; and they shall seek unto the idols and unto the conjurers, and unto the necromancers, and unto the soothsayers.

Konsa, lespri a Ejipsyen yo va vin twouble anndan yo, e Mwen va boulvèse tout plan yo. Konsa, yo va vire kote zidòl, fantom a mò yo, sila ki pale ak mò yo ak divinò yo.

4 And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord, and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.

Anplis, Mwen va livre Ejipsyen yo nan men a yon mèt mechan. Yon gran wa pwisan va gouvène sou yo,” deklare Senyè BONDYE dèzame yo.

5 And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up;

Dlo lanmè yo va vin sèch e rivyè a va vin sèch san dlo.

6 and the rivers shall stink, and the streams of Egypt shall be diminished and drain away: the reeds and sedges shall wither.

Kanal yo va lage yon movèz odè. Rivyè Égypte yo va vin sèch e san dlo. Wozo ak zèb dlo yo va rete pouri.

7 The meadows by the Nile, on the banks of the Nile, and everything sown by the Nile, shall be dried up, be driven away, and be no [more].

Gwo wozo a bò Rivyè Nil la, arebò Nil la ak tout chan ki fin plante akote Nil la va vin sèch, pouse ale, e p ap gen la ankò.

8 And the fishers shall mourn, and all they that cast fish-hook into the Nile shall lament, and they that spread net upon the waters shall languish.

Moun lapèch yo va plenyen; tout sila ki konn voye yon liy nan Nil la va lamante, e sila ki ouvri filè sou dlo yo va santi gwo pèt.

9 And they that work in fine flax, and they that weave white stuffs shall be ashamed.

Anplis, sila k ap pwodwi twal len nan ki fèt ak len swa ak bòs twal blan yo va tris nèt.

10 And her pillars shall be broken in pieces, and all workers for hire shall be sad of soul.

Pilye a Égypte yo va kraze nèt; tout anplwaye yo va afilje nan nanm yo.

11 They are but fools, the princes of Zoan, the wise counsellors of Pharaoh: [their] counsel is become senseless. How say ye unto Pharaoh, I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?

Prens a Tsoan yo pa plis ke moun fou. Konseye a pi saj Farawon yo vin bèt nèt. Kòman nou menm, mesye, nou ka di Farawon: “Mwen se fis a moun saj yo, fis a wa ansyen yo”?

12 Where are they then, thy wise [men]? Let them now tell thee, and let them make known what Jehovah of hosts hath purposed upon Egypt.

Eh byen, kote moun saj ou yo? Souple, kite yo pale ak ou, e kite yo konprann sa ke SENYÈ dèzame yo te planifye pou fè kont Égypte.

13 The princes of Zoan are become foolish, the princes of Noph are deceived; and the corner-stones of its tribes have caused Egypt to err.

Prens a Tsoan yo te aji nan foli. Prens a Noph yo te byen tronpe. Sila ki ta ang prensipal a pèp li a fin mennen Égypte nan wout egare.

14 Jehovah hath mingled a spirit of perverseness in the midst thereof; and they have caused Egypt to err in every work thereof, as a drunkard staggereth in his vomit.

SENYÈ a te mele nan li yon lespri ki fè l toudi; yo mennen Égypte nan wout egare nan tout sa li fè, tankou moun sou k ap glise tonbe nan vomisman li.

15 Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which the head or tail, palm-branch or rush, may do.

P ap gen travay pou Égypte; ni pou tèt li, ni pou ke li, branch palmis li, oswa sa ke wozo li yo ka fè.

16 In that day shall Egypt be like unto women; and it shall tremble and fear because of the shaking of the hand of Jehovah of hosts, which he shaketh over it.

Nan jou sa a, Ejipsyen yo va vin tankou fanm. Yo va tranble nan gwo laperèz akoz pase men ke SENYÈ a ap fè pase sou yo.

17 And the land of Judah shall be a dismay unto Egypt: every one that thinketh of it shall be afraid for himself, because of the counsel of Jehovah of hosts, which he hath purposed against it.

Peyi Juda va devni yon gwo laperèz pou Égypte. Tout moun ki tande non li va gen gwo lakrent li akoz volonte a SENYÈ dèzame yo, ki poze kont yo.

18 In that day shall there be five cities in the land of Egypt speaking the language of Canaan, and swearing by Jehovah of hosts: one shall be called, The city of Heres.

Nan jou sa a, senk gwo vil peyi Égypte yo va pale langaj a Kanaraneyen yo, e yo va sèmante alyans ak SENYÈ dèzame yo. Youn nan yo va rele Vil Destriksyon an.

19 In that day shall there be an altar to Jehovah in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to Jehovah:

Nan jou sa a, va gen yon lotèl a SENYÈ a nan mitan peyi Égypte la, e yon pilye a SENYÈ a toupre fwontyè li a.

20 and it shall be for a sign and for a witness to Jehovah of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they shall cry unto Jehovah because of the oppressors, and he will send them a saviour and defender, who shall deliver them.

Li va vin fè yon sign ak yon temwen a SENYÈ dèzame yo nan peyi Égypte; paske yo va kriye a SENYÈ a akoz sila k ap oprime moun yo, e Li va voye ba yo yon sovè, yon defansè e Li va delivre yo.

21 And Jehovah shall be known to the Egyptians, and the Egyptians shall know Jehovah in that day, and shall serve with sacrifice and oblation; and they shall vow a vow unto Jehovah, and perform it.

Konsa SENYÈ a va fè Égypte konnen Li. Konsa, Ejipsyen yo va konnen SENYÈ a nan jou sa a. Yo va anplis adore Li avèk sakrifis ak ofrann. Yo va fè yon ve a SENYÈ a, epi yo va akonpli li.

22 And Jehovah will smite Egypt; he will smite and heal: and they shall return to Jehovah, and he will be entreated of them, and will heal them.

SENYÈ a va frape Égypte; frape, men geri li. Yo va retounen kote SENYÈ, epi Li va reponn yo e geri yo.

23 In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria; and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria; and Egypt shall serve with Assyria.

Nan jou sa a, va gen yon gran chemen soti an Égypte pou rive Assyrie. Asiryen yo va antre an Égypte, e Ejipsyen yo an Assyrie. Ejipsyen ak Asiryen yo va adore ansanm.

24 In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth;

Nan jou sa a, Israël va fè yon twazyèm nan, ansanm ak Égypte ak Assyrie, yon gran benediksyon nan mitan mond lan.

25 whom Jehovah of hosts will bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance!

Paske SENYÈ dèzame yo ap beni yo e di: “Beni se Égypte, pèp Mwen an e Assyrie, zèv men Mwen an, ak Israël, eritaj Mwen an.”
