< Isaiah 2 >
1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
Pawòl ke Ésaïe, fis a Amots la, te wè konsènan Juda avèk Jérusalem.
2 And it shall come to pass in the end of days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established as the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
Alò, li va vin rive nan dènye jou yo, ke mòn lakay SENYÈ a va etabli kon chèf a mòn yo. Li va leve pi wo pase kolin yo, e tout nasyon yo va kouri vin jwenn li.
3 And many peoples shall go and say: 'Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths.' For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
Konsa, anpil pèp va vini e yo va di: Vini, annou monte nan mòn SENYÈ a, lakay Bondye a Jacob la; pou L kab enstwi nou konsènan chemen Li yo, e pou nou kapab mache nan pa Li yo. Paske lalwa a va sòti fè parèt soti nan Sion, e pawòl Bondye a soti nan Jérusalem.
4 And He shall judge between the nations, and shall decide for many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
Li va jije pami nasyon yo, e Li va rann desizyon pou anpil pèp. Yo va frape nepe yo pou fè cha tè a, ak lans lagè pou fè kwòk imondaj yo. Nasyon p ap leve nepe kont nasyon e jis pou tout tan, yo p ap vin aprann fè lagè ankò.
5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the LORD.
Vini lakay Jacob; annou mache nan limyè SENYÈ a.
6 For Thou hast forsaken Thy people the house of Jacob; for they are replenished from the east, and with soothsayers like the Philistines, and they please themselves in the brood of aliens.
Paske ou te abandone pèp Ou a, lakay Jacob, akoz yo plen ak jan de panse yo ki sòti nan lès; akoz yo vin pwofèt ki swiv Filisten yo, k ap antann yo ak pitit a etranje yo.
7 Their land also is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
Anplis, peyi yo vin plen ak ajan ak lò e pou richès yo, nanpwen fen. Peyi yo osi vin plen ak cheval yo, e ak cha lagè yo, nanpwen fen.
8 Their land also is full of idols; every one worshippeth the work of his own hands, that which his own fingers have made.
Peyi yo anplis plen ak zidòl; yo adore zèv men pa yo, sa ke dwèt yo te fè.
9 And man boweth down, and man lowereth himself; and Thou canst not bear with them.
Pou sa, lòm vin imilye; e limanite vin bese. Konsa, pa padone yo.
10 Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of His majesty.
Antre nan wòch, e kache nan pousyè, kont laperèz SENYÈ a, kont mayifisans ak majeste li.
11 The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
Ògèy a lòm va vin bese e wotè a lòm va vin imilye. E nan jou sa a se sèl SENYÈ a k ap egzalte.
12 For the LORD of hosts hath a day upon all that is proud and lofty, and upon all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low;
Paske SENYÈ dèzame yo va gen yon jou jijman kont nenpòt moun ki ògeye, e ki awogan; nenpòt moun ki leve tèt li wo va bese li.
13 And upon all the cedars of Lebanon that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan;
Epi kont tout bwa sèd Liban an ki byen wo, e ki leve tèt yo wo, kont tout chenn Basan yo.
14 And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up;
Kont tout mòn wo yo, kont tout kolin ki leve wo yo,
15 And upon every lofty tower, and upon every fortified wall;
Kont tout fò wo yo, kont tout miray fòtifye yo,
16 And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all delightful imagery.
Kont tout bato Tarsis yo, kont tout sa ki bèl pou wè yo.
17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
Ògèy a lòm va vin imilye e wotè a lòm va vin desann. Se sèl SENYÈ a ki va egzalte nan jou sa a.
18 And the idols shall utterly pass away.
Men zidòl yo va vin disparèt nèt.
19 And men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake mightily the earth.
Tout moun va antre nan kav pami wòch yo, ak nan twou tè a, devan gran laperèz SENYÈ a, ak gwo bagay etonnan de majeste Li, lè Li leve pou fè tè a tranble.
20 In that day a man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
Nan jou sa a, tout moun va jete deyò rat ak chòv-sourit, zidòl fèt an ajan, ak zidòl fèt an lò, ke yo te fè pou yo menm ta adore,
21 To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the crevices of the crags, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of His majesty, when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth.
pou yo ka antre nan kav wòch ak twou wòch nan falèz yo, pou yo pa parèt devan laperèz SENYÈ, ak gwo bagay etonan a majeste Li a, lè Li leve pou fè latè tranble.
22 Cease ye from man, in whose nostrils is a breath; for how little is he to be accounted!
Sispann mete konfyans nan lòm; souf vi li se sèl nan nen l. Kisa li vo?
