< Isaiah 66 >

1 Thus says the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that all of you build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Syèl la, se fòtèy kote mwen chita a. Tè a, se ti ban pou m' lonje pye m'. Ki kalite kay nou ta ka bati pou mwen? Ki kote nou ta ka ban mwen pou m' poze kò m'?
2 For all those things has mine hand made, and all those things have been, says the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembles at my word.
Se mwen menm ki fè tout bagay sa yo ak men mwen. Se pou mwen yo tout ye! Se Seyè a menm ki di sa. Moun ki fè m' plezi se moun ki pa gen lògèy nan kè yo, se moun ki règrèt sa yo fè ki mal, se moun ki gen krentif pou mwen lè m' pale.
3 He that kills an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrifices a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's neck; he that offers an oblation, as if he offered swine's blood; he that burns incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations.
Pèp la fè sa yo pito. Yo touye bèf pou mwen jòdi, denmen yo touye moun pou zidòl yo. Yo ofri ti mouton pou yo touye pou mwen jòdi, denmen yo kase kou chen pou zidòl. Yo fè ofrann grenn jaden yo jòdi pou mwen, denmen yo fè ofrann san kochon pou zidòl. Yo boule lansan sou lotèl mwen an pou m' pa janm bliye moun ki fè ofrann lan jòdi, denmen y'ap fè sèvis pou di Satan mèsi. Yo pran plezi nan fè zafè pa yo jan yo vle. Yo kontan fè vye bagay lèd y'ap fè yo.
4 I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
Mwen menm tou m'ap pran plezi m' aji ak yo menm jan yo aji a. M'ap fè malè yo pè rive yo a tonbe sou yo, paske mwen rele yo, pesonn pa reponn. Mwen pale yo, yo pa koute m'. Y'ap fè sa ki mal devan je m', yo pito fè sa ki p'ap fè m' plezi.
5 Hear the word of the LORD, all of you that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
Koute sa Seyè a di, nou menm ki gen krentif pou li lè li pale ak nou: Paske nou pa vire do ban mwen, gen moun menm ras ak nou ki pa vle wè nou, ki derefize mele ak nou. Y'ap di konsa: Se pou Seyè a fè wè pouvwa li, paske yo ta renmen wè jan nou kontan. Men se yo menm k'ap soti wont.
6 A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that renders recompence to his enemies.
Koute! Gwo bri nou tande k'ap fèt nan lavil la, gwo vwa nou tande k'ap pale nan tanp lan, se bri Seyè a k'ap tire revanj li sou lènmi l' yo.
7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a male child.
Lavil Bondye a tankou yon fanm ki akouche anvan menm li gen tranche. Li gen tan fè yon ti gason anvan menm li santi doulè.
8 Who has heard such a thing? who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
Ki moun ki janm tande koze konsa? Ki moun ki janm wè bagay konsa? Eske yon sèl jou kont pou fè tout yon nasyon? Eske lapoula yo ka fè tout yon nasyon? Mòn Siyon an p'ap soufri anpil anvan nasyon an fèt.
9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? says the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? says your God.
Eske mwen ka fè yon fanm kase lèzo, lèfini pou m' pa kite l' akouche? Eske mwen ka fè pitit la rive sou jou l' lèfini pou m' pa kite l' fèt? Se Bondye ou la menm ki di sa!
10 Rejoice all of you with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all you that mourn for her:
Fè kè nou kontan ansanm ak lavil Jerizalèm. Fè fèt pou li, nou tout ki renmen l'! Se pou nou kontan ansanm avè l' koulye a, nou menm ki te nan lapenn pou li!
11 That all of you may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that all of you may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
Tankou yon ti bebe k'ap tete manman l' jouk vant li plen, tankou yon ti bebe k'ap kontan souse lèt manman l', nou pral jwenn pa nou nan bèl bagay m'ap fè pou lavil Jerizalèm.
12 For thus says the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall all of you suck, all of you shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.
Paske, men sa Seyè a di: -Mwen pral ba li kè poze san rete. Richès nasyon yo pral kouvri l' tankou lè inondasyon dlo kouvri latè. Nou pral tankou ti bebe pou li: l'ap ban nou tete, l'a pote nou nan bra li, l'a mete nou sou jenou l' pou li jwe ak nou.
13 As one whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort you; and all of you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
Menm jan yon manman konsole pitit li, se konsa m'ap konsole nou nan lavil Jerizalèm.
14 And when all of you see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his servants, and his indignation toward his enemies.
Lè n'a wè sa, kè nou va kontan: sa va ban nou fòs ak kouraj ankò. Lè sa a, n'a konnen mwen menm, Seyè a, m'ap pwoteje sèvitè m' yo, men lènmi m' yo va konnen jan m' konn fache.
15 For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
Seyè a ap vin nan yon gwo dife. Li moute sou nwaj yon gwo tanpèt pou l' vin pini moun ki te fè l' fache yo, pou l' regle yo jan li te di l'ap regle yo a nan yon gwo boukan dife.
16 For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many.
Se avèk dife Seyè a pral jije, avèk nepe l' li pral regle tout moun ki koupab yo. Anpil moun pral mouri anba men l'.
17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, says the LORD.
Seyè a di ankò: -Talè konsa sa pral fini pou moun k'ap fè sèvis pou mete kò yo nan bon kondisyon anvan y'a l' fè pwosesyon pou zidòl nan jaden yo, pou moun k'ap manje vyann kochon, vyann sourit ak lòt kalite manje ki pa bon pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye.
18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
Mwen konnen sa y'ap fè, mwen konnen sa ki nan lide yo. Mwen menm, m'ap vin sanble pèp tout nasyon yo, pèp ki pale tout kalite lang sou latè. Y'a vini, y'a wè bèl pouvwa mwen.
19 And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles far off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.
M'a fè yo konnen se mwen menm k'ap pini yo. Men, m'ap sove kèk moun ladan yo, pou m' voye yo nan tout nasyon, nan tout peyi byen lwen ki poko janm tande non m' nan zòrèy yo, ki pa janm wè pouvwa mwen, nan peyi Lespay, nan peyi Libi, nan peyi Lidi, kote ki gen moun ki konn sèvi ak banza ak anpil ladrès, nan peyi Toubal ak nan peyi Lagrès. Yo pral fè moun tout nasyon yo konnen jan mwen gen pouvwa.
20 And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the LORD out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says the LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD.
Y'a pran tout frè parèy nou yo, y'a mennen yo tounen soti nan peyi sa yo, tankou yon ofrann pou mwen. Y'ap mennen yo tounen sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an, lavil Jerizalèm, sou chwal, sou milèt, sou chamo, nan kabwèt kouvri, nan cha, menm jan moun pèp Izrayèl yo konn pote grenn jaden pou ofri nan tanp lan nan veso yo mete nan bon kondisyon espre pou sa.
21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, says the LORD.
M'a pran kèk moun nan moun sa yo pou fè travay prèt ak travay moun Levi yo. Se Seyè a ki di sa.
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, says the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
Menm jan lòt syèl ak lòt latè m'ap fè yo ap la pou lontan devan m', konsa tou pitit nou ak non nou ap la pou lontan. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, says the LORD.
Pou chak fèt lalin nouvèl, pou chak jou repo, moun tout peyi va vin fè sèvis pou mwen isit lavil Jerizalèm. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
Lè y'ap kite lavil la, y'a wè kadav moun ki te vire do ban mwen yo. Vè k'ap manje yo p'ap janm mouri, dife k'ap boule yo a p'ap janm tenyen. Tout moun sou latè pral gen kè plen lè y'a wè sa!
