Isaiah 25
1 O Lord, thou art my God, I will exalt thee, and give glory to thy name: for thou hast done wonderful things, thy designs of old faithful, amen.
Seyè, se ou ki Bondye mwen! M'a di jan ou gen gwo pouvwa, m'a fè lwanj ou! Ou fè anpil bèl bagay. Plan travay ou te fè nan tèt ou depi lontan an, ou reyalize l' nèt, jan ou te vle l' la.
2 For thou hast reduced the city to a heap, the strong city to ruin, the house of strangers, to be no city, and to be no more built up for ever.
Ou fè tout lavil tounen pil wòch, lavil ki te gen gwo ranpa tounen vye kay kraze. Sitadèl lènmi yo te bati a disparèt. Yo p'ap janm ka rebati l' ankò.
3 Therefore shall a strong people praise thee, the city of mighty nations shall fear thee.
Se poutèt sa, moun gwo nasyon yo ap fè lwanj ou. Lwijanboje ki rete nan lavil gwo peyi yo va gen krentif pou ou.
4 Because thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress: a refuge from the whirlwind, a shadow from the heat. For the blast of the mighty is like a whirlwind beating against a wall.
Paske ou te sèvi pwoteksyon pou moun ki fèb, yon pwoteksyon pou malere lè yo te nan tray. Se bò kote ou yo pare lapli. Se anba lonbraj ou yo pare solèy. Lè mechan yo move, yo tankou gwo lapli loraj k'ap tonbe nan tan fredi.
5 Thou shalt bring down the tumult of strangers, as heat in thirst: and as with heat under a burning cloud, thou shalt make the branch of the mighty to wither away.
Yo tankou gwo solèy k'ap boule yon tè sèk. Men, Seyè, ou kase fe lènmi nou yo. Ou fè tout mechan yo fèmen bouch yo. Ou fè yo frèt tankou lè gwo nwaj bare solèy la nan sezon chalè.
6 And the Lord of hosts shall make unto all people in this mountain, a feast of fat things, a feast of wine, of fat things full of marrow, of wine purified from the lees.
Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pral fè yon gwo fèt sou mòn Siyon an pou tout nasyon ki sou latè, avèk bèl plat manje byen pare ak bonjan vyann gra. L'ap sèvi bon kalite diven ki la depi lontan.
7 And he shall destroy in this mountain the face of the bond with which all people were tied, and the web that he began over all nations.
Se sou mòn sa a li pral wete gwo vwal ki te sou tèt tout nasyon yo, vwal ki te ba yo kè sere a.
8 He shall cast death down headlong for ever: and the Lord God shall wipe away tears from every face, and the reproach of his people he shall take away from off the whole earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.
Seyè a pral fè pa janm gen lanmò ankò. Li pral siye dlo nan je tout moun. Li pral wete lawont sa a ki te sou pèp li a toupatou sou latè. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa!
9 And they shall say in that day: Lo, this is our God, we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the Lord, we have patiently waited for him, we shall rejoice and be joyfull in his salvation.
Jou sa a, tout moun va di: Se li menm ki Bondye nou. Nou te mete tout espwa nou nan li. Li delivre nou! Se li menm ki Seyè a! Nou te mete konfyans nou nan li. Ann fè kè nou kontan. Ann fè fèt, paske li delivre nou.
10 For the hand of the Lord shall rest in this mountain: and Moab shall be trodden down under him, as straw is broken in pieces with the wain.
Seyè a ap pwoteje mòn Siyon an. Men, l'ap pilonnen moun peyi Moab yo anba pye l', menm jan yo pilonnen pay nan labou pak bèt.
11 And he shall stretch forth his hands under him, as he that swimmeth stretcheth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down his glory with the dashing of his hands.
Nan mitan labou a, y'a lonje bra yo tankou si yo ta vle naje soti. Men Seyè a pral kraze lògèy yo, l'ap defèt tou sa yo te fè ak men yo.
12 And the bulwarks of thy high walls shall fall, and be brought low, and shall be pulled down to the ground, even to the dust.
L'ap kraze gwo ranpa byen wo yo te bati sou miray yo, l'ap jete yo plat atè, l'ap fè yo tounen pousyè.
