< Isaiah 56 >
1 Thus saith the Lord, Keepe iudgement and doe iustice: for my saluation is at hand to come, and my righteousnes to be reueiled.
Men sa Seyè a di pèp li a: -Se pou nou fè sa ki dwat. Pa fè lenjistis. Paske mwen pa lwen vin delivre nou, mwen pa lwen fè nou konnen jan m'ap pran defans nou.
2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the sonne of man which layeth holde on it: hee that keepeth the Sabbath and polluteth it not, and keepeth his hand from doing any euill.
benediksyon pou moun ki fè sa m' di yo fè a epi ki toujou kenbe pawòl mwen yo fèm. benediksyon pou moun ki respekte jou repo a, pou moun ki pa mete men l' nan ankenn movezak.
3 And let not the sonne of the stranger, which is ioyned to the Lord, speake and say, The Lord hath surely separate me from his people: neither let the Eunuch say, Beholde, I am a drye tree.
Yon moun lòt nasyon ki va kole kò l' ak pèp Seyè a pa fèt pou di: Seyè a p'ap kite m' fè sèvis pou li ansanm ak pèp li a. Yon moun ki chatre pa dwe janm di: Se yon vye pyebwa chèch mwen ye, mwen pa ka fè pati pèp Bondye a.
4 For thus saith the Lord vnto the Eunuches, that keepe my Sabbaths, and chuse the thing that pleaseth me, and take holde of my couenant,
Men sa Seyè a di: Lè yon moun ki chatre mete jou repo a apa pou mwen, lè li chwazi pou l' fè volonte mwen, lè li kenbe kontra mwen an fèm,
5 Euen vnto them wil I giue in mine House and within my walles, a place and a name better then of the sonnes and of the daughters: I will giue them an euerlasting name, that shall not be put out.
m'ap fè yo chonje l' nan tanp mwen an ak nan mitan pèp mwen an pi lontan pase si li te gen pitit gason ak pitit fi. M'ap fè yo pa janm bliye l'.
6 Also the strangers that cleaue vnto the Lord, to serue him, and to loue the Name of the Lord, and to be his seruants: euery one that keepeth the Sabbath, and polluteth it not and imbraceth my couenant,
Tout moun lòt nasyon ki va vin kole kò yo ansanm ak pèp Seyè a pou yo sèvi l', pou yo renmen l' tankou yon sèvitè, tout moun ki mete jou repo a apa san yo pa derespekte l' epi ki kenbe kontra m' lan fèm,
7 Them wil I bring also to mine holy mountaine, and make them ioyfull in mine House of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted vpon mine altar: for mine House shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
m'ap mennen yo sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an, m'a ba yo kè kontan nan kay kote yo fè lapriyè pou mwen an. M'a asepte tout bèt y'a ofri pou boule sou lotèl mwen ak tout lòt ofrann y'a fè pou mwen. Y'a rele kay mwen an kay kote tout pèp va vin fè lapriyè nan pye m'.
8 The Lord God sayth, which gathereth the scattered of Israel, Yet wil I gather to them those that are to be gathered to them.
Men sa Seyè a, Bondye a, di, li menm ki te fè moun pèp Izrayèl yo te depòte yo sanble nan peyi yo a ankò: Anplis moun pèp mwen an, mwen va sanble yon bann lòt moun ankò ansanm ak yo.
9 All ye beastes of the fielde, come to deuoure, euen all ye beastes of the forest.
Seyè a rele moun lòt nasyon yo pou yo vin devore, pou yo vin manje tankou bèt mawon ki nan savann ak bèt ki nan rakbwa.
10 Their watchmen are all blinde: they haue no knowledge: they are all dumme dogs: they can not barke: they lie and sleepe and delite in sleeping.
Li di: -Tout chèf ki la pou avèti pèp mwen an, je yo pete. Yo pa konprann anyen. Yo tankou chen ki pa janm jape. Lespri yo byen lwen. Yo kouche tout lajounen, y'ap kabicha.
11 And these griedy dogs can neuer haue ynough: and these shepheards cannot vnderstand: for they all looke to their owne way, euery one for his aduantage, and for his owne purpose.
Yo tankou chen aloufa, anyen pa janm kont yo. Se yon bann chèf san konprann. Yo tout fè sa yo pito. Se avantaj yo ase y'ap defann.
12 Come, I wil bring wine, and we wil fill our selues with strong drinke, and to morowe shalbe as this day, and much more abundant.
Y'ap plede di: Vini non! N'a jwenn diven. N'a pran kèk bon razad gwòg. Denmen menm, bagay la ap pi bon toujou pase jòdi a.
