Isaiah 60
1 Arise, shine, for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
Leve kanpe! Ou pral klere tankou solèy. Pouvwa Seyè a pral klere sou ou.
2 For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples; but upon thee the LORD will arise, and His glory shall be seen upon thee.
Lòt nasyon yo nan fènwa, yon nwaj kouvri lòt pèp yo. Men limyè Seyè a pral leve sou nou! Pouvwa li pral parèt sou nou!
3 And nations shall walk at thy light, and kings at the brightness of thy rising.
Nasyon yo pral kouri vin nan limyè nou an. Tout wa yo pral kouri vin nan klète jou k'ap leve pou nou an.
4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: they all are gathered together, and come to thee; thy sons come from far, and thy daughters are borne on the side.
Voye je nou toupatou bò kote nou, gade sa k'ap rive! Tout moun pa nou yo ap sanble, y'ap tounen lakay yo. Pitit gason nou yo ap soti byen lwen. Moun ap pote pitit fi nou yo tankou timoun chita sou ren yo.
5 Then thou shalt see and be radiant, and thy heart shall throb and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee.
Lè n'a wè sa, n'a kontan nèt ale! Kè nou pral bat, nou p'ap konn kote pou n' mete kò nou! Y'ap pote richès nasyon yo ban nou. Y'ap soti lòt bò lanmè, y'ap vin jwenn nou.
6 The caravan of camels shall cover thee, and of the young camels of Midian and Ephah, all coming from Sheba; they shall bring gold and incense, and shall proclaim the praises of the LORD.
Y'ap ban nou kantite chamo ki soti peyi Madyan ak peyi Efa. Nou p'ap konnen kote pou n' mete yo. Moun ap soti peyi Saba, chaje lò ak lansan. Y'ap pwonmennen fè lwanj Seyè a toupatou.
7 All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee; they shall come up with acceptance on Mine altar, and I will glorify My glorious house.
Tout mouton ak kabrit peyi Keda yo ap sanble lakay nou. N'a gen belye mouton peyi Nebayòt yo pou fè sèvis. N'a ofri yo pou boule sou lotèl mwen an. Sa va fè m' plezi. Seyè a va fè kay kote fòtèy li ye a vin byen bèl ankò.
8 Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their cotes?
Ki tout moun sa yo? Y'ap plane tankou yon nwaj nan syèl la, tankou yon bann pijon k'ap tounen vin nan kalòj yo?
9 Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee.
Se yon bann bato k'ap soti byen lwen, bato peyi Tasis yo devan. Y'ap mennen moun pèp Bondye a tounen lakay yo. Y'ap pote ajan ak lò ak yo an kantite, pou sa sèvi yon lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Paske Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ki yon Bondye apa, te fè bèl bagay pou pèp li a.
10 And aliens shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee; for in My wrath I smote thee, but in My favour have I had compassion on thee.
Seyè a pale ak lavil Jerizalèm, li di l' konsa: -Se moun lòt nasyon ki pral rebati miray nou yo! Se wa yo ki pral sèvi nou domestik. Nan kòlè mwen, mwen te pini nou. Men, mwen gen pitye pou nou paske mwen gen bon kè.
11 Thy gates also shall be open continually, day and night, they shall not be shut; that men may bring unto thee the wealth of the nations, and their kings in procession.
Pòtay nou yo ap rete louvri lajounen kou lannwit. Yo p'ap janm fèmen, pou wa lòt nasyon yo ka pote tout richès peyi yo lakay nou.
12 For that nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.
Paske y'ap detwi tout nasyon ak tout wa ki pa vle sèvi nou yo. Y'ap kraze peyi sa yo nèt ale.
13 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the cypress, the plane-tree and the larch together; to beautify the place of My sanctuary, and I will make the place of My feet glorious.
Y'a pote pi bèl pyebwa nan peyi Liban an, pichpen, pye sèd ak bwadòm, lakay nou pou dekore tanp ki apa pou mwen an, pou anbeli kote m' rete a.
14 And the sons of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee, and all they that despised thee shall bow down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee The city of the LORD, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
Pitit moun ki t'ap maltrete nou yo va vin jwenn nou tèt bese. Tout moun ki t'ap pase nou nan betiz pral ajenou nan pye nou. Y'a rele nou lavil Seyè a, Mòn Siyon ki pou Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki yon Bondye apa.
15 Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man passed through thee, I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.
Mwen p'ap vire do ban nou ankò. Yo p'ap rayi nou. Nou p'ap rete san pesonn pou vizite nou. M'ap fè moun nou yo toujou kontan wè nou. Y'a fè fèt de tit an tit.
16 Thou shalt also suck the milk of the nations, and shalt suck the breast of kings; and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy Saviour, and I, the Mighty One of Jacob, thy Redeemer.
Lòt nasyon yo ansanm ak wa yo va pran swen nou tankou yon nouris k'ap bay pitit li tete. Lè sa a n'a konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki sove nou. Se Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki delivre nou.
17 For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron; I will also make thy officers peace, and righteousness thy magistrates.
M'a fè yo pote lò pou nou nan plas kwiv. M'a fè yo pote ajan pou nou nan plas fè. N'a gen kwiv nan plas bwa, n'a gen fè nan plas wòch. Nan plas chèf ki t'ap peze nou yo, m'a mete chèf k'ap fè nou viv ak kè poze. Nan plas chèf ki t'ap souse nou yo, m'a mete chèf k'ap fè sa ki dwat.
18 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, desolation nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.
Yo p'ap tande moun fè mechanste nan peyi a ankò. Moun p'ap devalize peyi a ankò, ni moun p'ap kraze l'. M'ap sèvi nou ranpa, se mwen menm k'ap pwoteje nou. M'ap sèvi nou pòtay, n'a fè lwanj mwen.
19 The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.
Se pa solèy la ki pral klere nou lajounen. Ni nou p'ap bezwen klète lalin lan pou klere nou lannwit. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki pral sèvi nou limyè pou tout tan. Se Bondye nou an ki pral leve tèt nou.
20 Thy sun shall no more go down, Neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
Solèy nou an p'ap janm kouche ankò. Lalin nou an p'ap janm disparèt. Se Seyè a menm ki pral sèvi nou limyè pou tout tan. Jou lafliksyon nou yo fini.
21 Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory.
Tout moun nan pèp nou an va fè sa ki dwat. Y'a rete nan peyi a pou tout tan. Tankou kreyòl jaden mwen, se mwen ki plante yo, se mwen ki fè yo ak men mwen, pou m' ka fè tout moun wè pouvwa mwen.
22 The smallest shall become a thousand, and the least a mighty nation; I the LORD will hasten it in its time.
Fanmi ki pi piti nan mitan nou an pral gen mil (1.000) moun. Fanmi ki pa vo anyen an pral tounen yon gwo nasyon. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki p'ap mize fè sa, lè lè a va rive.
