Isaiah 30
1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of Me; and that form projects, but not of My spirit, that they may add sin to sin;
Men sa Seyè a di: -Madichon pou pitit mwen yo k'ap fè tèt di ak mwen! Nan tou sa y'ap fè, se pwòp lide yo y'ap swiv, se pa lide pa m'. Y'ap siyen lòt kontra, atout mwen di yo non. Y'ap fè peche sou peche.
2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at My mouth; to take refuge in the stronghold of Pharaoh, and to take shelter in the shadow of Egypt!
Yo desann al nan peyi Lejip san yo pa mande m' konsèy. Y' al mande farawon an pou l' pwoteje yo, y' al mete kò yo anba zèl peyi Lejip.
3 Therefore shall the stronghold of Pharaoh turn to your shame, and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt to your confusion.
Men, farawon an p'ap ka fè anyen pou nou. Pwoteksyon peyi Lejip la ap tounen yon wont pou nou.
4 For his princes are at Zoan, and his ambassadors are come to Hanes.
Malgre delege yo gen tan rive lavil Zoan ak lavil Anès,
5 They shall all be ashamed of a people that cannot profit them, that are not a help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
pèp Jida a pral règrèt yo te janm mete konfyans yo nan yon pèp ki pa ka fè anyen pou yo, yon nasyon ki pa ka ni ede yo ni pote yo sekou, yon nasyon k'ap fè yo wont, yon nasyon k'ap ba yo desepsyon.
6 The burden of the beasts of the South. Through the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the lioness and the lion, the viper and flying serpent, they carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the humps of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
Men yon mesaj Bondye bay sou bèt nan dezè Negèv yo: -Delege yo ap vwayaje nan yon peyi ki gen anpil danje, kote lyon ak manman lyon rete, kote gen move sèpan ak dragon azèl. Yo chaje bourik yo ak chamo yo avèk kado pou yon nasyon ki pa ka fè anyen pou yo.
7 For Egypt helpeth in vain, and to no purpose; therefore have I called her arrogancy that sitteth still.
Paske konkou Lejip ap ba yo a p'ap sèvi yo anyen, paske li pa vo anyen, se poutèt sa mwen bay peyi a yon ti non. Mwen rele l': Dragon dan kase a.
8 Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever.
Seyè a di m': -Koulye a al ekri sa moun sa yo ye a sou yon adwaz. Ekri l' nan yon woulo liv, pou sa ka toujou sèvi m' temwen kont yo pou tout tan tout tan.
9 For it is a rebellious people, lying children, children that refuse to hear the teaching of the LORD;
Yo toujou ap fè tèt di ak Bondye. Se yon bann pitit ki toujou ap bay manti, ki pa vle koute lòd Bondye, Seyè a.
10 That say to the seers: 'See not,' and to the prophets: 'Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy delusions;
Y'ap di divinò yo: Pa di nou vizyon nou fè yo. Y'ap di pwofèt yo: Pa fè nou konnen sa nou dwe fè. Di nou bèl pawòl dous k'ap fè nou plezi. Kite nou ak sa nou kwè a.
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.'
Wete kò nou sou bon wout la! Fè sou kote! Pa vin pale nou sou Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki yon Bondye apa.
12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel: because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon;
Se poutèt sa, men sa Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, Bondye apa a, ap di: Nou pa vle koute avètisman m'ap ban nou an. Nou pito met konfyans nou nan moun k'ap fè mechanste, nan moun k'ap fè bagay sou kote. Se sou yo nou apiye.
13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
Enben, se nou ki va pote chay la. Nou tankou yon miray ki make fann, tankou yon gwo miray byen wo ki gen yon pati ladan l' k'ap souke, ki gonfle prèt pou tonbe. N'ap rete konsa, n'ap tonbe anvan nou bat je nou.
14 And He shall break it as a potter's vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing; so that there shall not be found among the pieces thereof a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water out of the cistern.
N'ap tonbe an miyèt moso tankou kannari kraze. P'ap menm gen yon moso ki ka sèvi pou ranmase chabon dife osinon pou al chache dlo nan sous.
15 For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: in sitting still and rest shall ye be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength; and ye would not.
Men, Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ki yon Bondye apa, te di pèp la: Tounen vin jwenn mwen, lèfini ret trankil, n'a delivre. Ret dousman, met konfyans nou nan mwen. Se sa ki tout fòs nou. Men, nou pa t' vle.
16 But ye said: 'No, for we will flee upon horses'; therefore shall ye flee; and: 'We will ride upon the swift'; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
Men nou te pito di: Ann moute chwal nou kouri ale. Enben, ale! Ale non! Sove kò nou! Nou te pito di: n'a moute sou chwal ki konn kouri. Men tou, sa k'ap kouri dèyè nou yo pral kouri pi vit pase nou!
17 One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one, at the rebuke of five shall ye flee; till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on a hill.
Lè n'a wè yon sèl moun nan lènmi yo, mil nan nou pral kraze rak. Lè n'a wè senk menm, se nou tout k'ap kouri met deyò. Sèl bagay k'ap rete nan lame nou an, se va drapo n'a kite kanpe sou tèt ti mòn lan.
18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that He may be gracious unto you, and therefore will He be exalted, that He may have compassion upon you; for the LORD is a God of justice, happy are all they that wait for Him.
Men, Seyè a ap tann lè pou l' fè nou gras. Li tou pare pou l' gen pitye pou nou, paske Seyè a, se yon Bondye k'ap toujou fè sa ki byen! benediksyon pou moun ki mete konfyans yo nan li.
19 For, O people that dwellest in Zion at Jerusalem, thou shalt weep no more; He will surely be gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry, when He shall hear, He will answer thee.
Nou menm ki rete lavil Jerizalèm sou mòn Siyon an, nou p'ap kriye ankò. Rele n'a rele l', l'a fè nou gras. Tande l'a tande nou, l'ap reponn nou.
20 And though the Lord give you sparing bread and scant water, yet shall not thy Teacher hide Himself any more, but thine eyes shall see thy Teacher;
Bondye va fè nou manje kont mizè nou, l'a fè nou pase kont tray nou, men l'ap la pou l' moutre nou sa pou l' moutre nou an. N'ap wè l' ak de grenn je nou, nou p'ap bezwen al chache l' ankò.
21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying: 'This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.'
Si nou chankre sou bò dwat osinon sou bò gòch, n'a tande yon vwa nan do nou k'ap di nou: Men bon chemen an bò isit. Se la a pou ou pase!
22 And ye shall defile thy graven images overlaid with silver, and thy molten images covered with gold; thou shalt put them far away as one unclean; thou shalt say unto it: 'Get thee hence.'
N'a pran estati zidòl nou yo ki kouvri ak ajan ansanm ak lò sou tout kò yo pou bagay k'ap mete nou nan kondisyon pou nou pa ka sèvi Bondye, n'ap voye yo jete tankou vye bagay sal, n'a di yo: Soti devan je nou!
23 And He will give the rain for thy seed, wherewith thou sowest the ground, and bread of the increase of the ground, and it shall be fat and plenteous; in that day shall thy cattle feed in large pastures.
Lè n'a plante grenn nan jaden nou, Bondye va voye lapli pou l' fè yo pouse. L'a fè tè a bay manje k'ap bon nan bouch nou, manje k'ap ban nou fòs. N'a gen kont kote pou nou mennen bèt nou yo al manje.
24 The oxen likewise and the young asses that till the ground shall eat savoury provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
Towo bèf ak bourik k'ap sèvi pou travay tè nou va jwenn bon manje pou yo manje, bon zèb sale y'a vannen epi y'a ranmase ak fouch mete nan depo.
25 And there shall be upon every lofty mountain, and upon every high hill streams and watercourses, in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Jou y'a kraze fò lènmi nou yo, jou y'a masakre tout lènmi nou yo, sous dlo pral pete nan tout gwo mòn, nan tout ti mòn koule desann.
26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of the seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the bruise of His people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.
Jou Seyè a pral mete renmèd sou kote ki te blese nan pèp la, jou l'ap geri tout kote pèp la te blese a, lalin pral klere tankou solèy, limyè solèy la menm pral sèt fwa pi klere, ou ta di limyè sèt jou mete ansanm. Wi, tou sa pral rive jou Seyè a.
27 Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, with His anger burning, and in thick uplifting of smoke; His lips are full of indignation, and His tongue is as a devouring fire;
Pouvwa Bondye a pral vin soti byen lwen. Dife ak lafimen ap fè wè jan li move. L'ap fè kòlè, pawòl li yo tankou boukan dife nan raje.
28 And His breath is as an overflowing stream, that divideth even unto the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of destruction; and a bridle that causeth to err shall be in the jaws of the peoples.
Li fè van soufle, ou ta di yon ravin k'ap desann, dlo li rive rabo. L'ap boulvèse nasyon yo jouk li detwi yo, l'ap detounen tout move lide yo te gen nan tèt yo.
29 Ye shall have a song as in the night when a feast is hallowed; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with the pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the Rock of Israel.
Men, nou menm pèp Bondye a, nou pral chante, nou pral fè fèt tankou nou fè l' lavèy jou fèt nou. Nou pral kontan tankou moun k'ap jwe fif lè yo sou wout pou ale sou mòn Seyè a, Bondye k'ap defann pèp Izrayèl la.
30 And the LORD will cause His glorious voice to be heard, and will show the lighting down of His arm, with furious anger, and the flame of a devouring fire, with a bursting of clouds, and a storm of rain, and hailstones.
Seyè a pral fè tout moun tande fòs vwa li, li pral fè yo santi fòs ponyèt li lè li move. Lè sa a, va gen flanm dife, van siklòn, gwo tanpèt, lapli ak tanpèt lagrèl.
31 For through the voice of the LORD shall Asshur be dismayed, the rod with which He smote.
Moun peyi Lasiri yo pral tranble lè y'a tande vwa Seyè a k'ap ba yo baton.
32 And in every place where the appointed staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps; and in battles of wielding will He fight with them.
Chak fwa Seyè a va ba yo yon kout baton pou l' pini yo, y'a tande son tanbou ak son gita k'ap jwe nan peyi Izrayèl. Se Seyè a menm ki pral goumen ak moun Lasiri yo.
33 For a hearth is ordered of old; yea, for the king it is prepared, deep and large; the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
Depi lontan yo te pare yon gwo twou pou dife boukan an. Se ladan l' yo pral boule wa a. Yo fè twou a byen fon, byen laj. Yo plen l' bwa. Seyè a pral soufle yon flanm dife melanje ak souf sou li pou boule l'.
