Isaiah 65
1 I am sought out of them that inquired not [for me], I am found of them that sought me not; I have said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
“Mwen te chache pa sila ki pa t mande pou Mwen yo; Mwen te twouve pa sila ki pa t chache M. Mwen te di: “Men Mwen isit la! Men Mwen isit la!’ a yon nasyon ki pa t rele non Mwen.
2 I have stretched out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, who walk in a way not good, after their own thoughts;
Mwen te louvri men M tout lajounen a yon pèp rebèl, ki mache nan chemen ki pa bon, k ap swiv pwòp panse pa yo,
3 the people that provoke me to anger continually to my face, sacrificing in gardens and burning incense upon the bricks;
Yon pèp ki pwovoke M tout tan nan figi M, k ap ofri sakrifis nan jaden yo e k ap brile lansan sou brik yo;
4 who sit down among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things [is in] their vessels;
ki chita nan mitan tonm yo e ki pase nwit lan kote kache yo; ki manje chè kochon, ak soup fèt ak sa ki pa pwòp.
5 who say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.
Ki di: ‘Rete la, ou menm, pa pwoche mwen; mwen pi sen pase ou’! Sila yo se lafimen nan nen Mwen, yon dife ki brile tout lajounen.
6 Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
“Gade byen, li ekri devan Mwen: Mwen p ap rete an silans, men Mwen va bay rekonpans; Mwen va rekonpanse jis rive nan lestonmak yo,
7 your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith Jehovah, who have burned incense upon the mountains, and outraged me upon the hills; and I will measure their former work into their bosom.
ni pou pwòp inikite pa yo ak inikite a zansèt yo ansanm”, pale SENYÈ a. “Akoz yo te brile lansan sou mòn yo e te moke M sou kolin yo; pou sa, Mwen va mezire zèv yo te fè, jis rive nan lestonmak yo.”
8 Thus saith Jehovah: As the new wine is found in the cluster, and it is said, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy [them] all.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a; “Menm jan divin tounèf twouve nan yon grap rezen, e yon moun di, ‘pa detwi l, paske gen benefis ladann’: konsa Mwen va aji pou sèvitè ki pou Mwen yo, pou M pa detwi yo tout.
9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah a possessor of my mountains; and mine elect shall possess it, and my servants shall dwell there.
Mwen va mennen fè sòti zanfan Jacob yo e yon eritye mòn Mwen yo kap soti nan Juda. Menm chwazi pa M yo va eritye l e sèvitè Mwen yo va demere la.
10 And the Sharon shall be a fold for flocks, and the valley of Achor a couching-place of the herds, for my people that have sought me.
Saron va yon peyi ki fè patiraj pou bann mouton yo, e vale Acor yon kote pou twoupo yo ka repoze, pou pèp Mwen ki chache Mwen an.
11 But ye who forsake Jehovah, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Gad, and fill up mixed wine unto Meni:
“Men nou menm ki abandone SENYÈ a, ki bliye mòn sen Mwen an, ki ranje yon tab pou Gran Chans, ki plen tas ak diven mele pou Desten an;
12 I will even assign you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down in the slaughter; because I called, and ye did not answer, I spoke, and ye did not hear; but ye did what was evil in mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delight not.
Mwen va ranje desten nou ak nepe, e nou tout va bese devan masak la. Akoz Mwen te rele nou, men nou pa t reponn; Mwen te pale, men nou pa t tande. Epi nou te fè mal devan zye M, e te chwazi sa ki pa t fè m plezi.”
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, my servants shall eat, and ye shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, and ye shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, and ye shall be ashamed;
Pou sa, konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen yo va manje, men nou va rete grangou. Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen yo va bwè, men nou va rete swaf. Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen yo va rejwi, men nou va twouve gwo wont.
14 behold, my servants shall sing aloud for gladness of heart, and ye shall cry out for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen yo va rele ak jwa ak kè kontan, men nou va kriye fò ak yon kè plen doulè, e nou va rele anmwey ak yon lespri ki kraze nèt.
15 And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto mine elect; for the Lord Jehovah will slay thee, and will call his servants by another name:
Ou va kite non nou kon yon malediksyon a moun chwazi pa Mwen yo, e Senyè BONDYE a va touye nou. Li va rele sèvitè Li yo pa yon lòt non.
16 so that he who blesseth himself in the land shall bless himself by the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the land shall swear by the God of truth: because the former troubles shall be forgotten, and because they shall be hidden from mine eyes.
Paske sila ki beni sou tè a, va beni pa Bondye verite a; epi sila ki sèmante nan tout tè a, va sèmante pa Bondye verite a; paske ansyen twoub yo fin bliye e paske yo kache devan zye M.”
17 For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
Paske gade byen, Mwen va kreye yon syèl tounèf, ak yon tè tounèf; epi ansyen bagay yo p ap sonje ankò, ni p ap menm antre nan panse.
18 But be glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create. For behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
Men fè kè kontan e rejwi nou jis pou tout tan nan sa ke M kreye yo; paske gade byen, Mwen kreye Jérusalem pou rejwisans, e pèp li a pou kè kontan.
19 And I will rejoice over Jerusalem, and will joy in my people; and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
Anplis, Mwen va rejwi de Jérusalem. Mwen va fè kè kontan nan pèp Mwen an. Epi p ap tande ankò nan li vwa kriye ak son moun k ap kriye.
20 There shall be no more thenceforth an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not completed his days; for the youth shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.
“P ap genyen ladann ankò timoun ki viv sèlman kèk jou, ni granmoun ki pa fin fè tout jou li yo; paske jenn yo va mouri nan laj santan e sila ki pa rive nan laj santan yo va konsidere kon moun modi.
21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof:
Yo va bati kay yo pou yo viv ladann; anplis, yo va plante chan rezen yo e manje fwi yo.
22 they shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
Yo p ap bati kay pou yon lòt moun rete ladann, yo p ap plante pou yon lòt moun vin manje. Paske kon lavi a yon pyebwa, se konsa jou a pèp Mwen an va ye, e moun chwazi pa M yo va gen tan rejwi nan pwòp zèv men yo.
23 They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of Jehovah, and their offspring with them.
Yo p ap travay an ven, ni fè pitit pou mizè; paske yo se desandan a sila ki beni pa SENYÈ a, e anplis, desandan yo, menm jan.
24 And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
Anplis, li va vin rive ke avan yo rele, Mwen va reponn; epi pandan yo toujou ap pale, Mwen va tande.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith Jehovah.
Lou ak ti mouton va manje ansanm. Lyon an va manje pay kon bèf. Men pousyè va sèvi kon manje pou sèpan an. Yo p ap fè mal ni donmaj nan tout mòn sen Mwen an,” di SENYÈ a.
