Esias 57
1 See how the just man has perished, and no one lays [it] to heart: and righteous men are taken away, and no one considers: for the righteous has been removed out of the way of injustice.
Moun dwat la peri, men pèsòn pa pran sa a kè. Sila ak mizerikòd vin retire, men pèsòn pa konsidere ke moun dwat la retire pou anpeche mal la rive l.
2 His burial shall be in peace: he has been removed out of the way.
Li antre nan lapè. Chak antre nan pwòp kabann pa l; tout sila ki te mache dwat nan chemen li yo.
3 But draw you near hither, you lawless children, the seed of adulterers and the harlot.
“Men vini isit la, nou menm fis a yon manbo, desandan a yon fanm adiltè ak yon pwostitiye.
4 Wherein have you been rioting? and against whom have you opened your mouth, and against whom have you loosed your tongue? are you not children of perdition? a lawless seed?
Se kont kilès nou fè plezi a? Kont kilès nou ouvri bouch nou laj e lonje lang nou an? Se pa desandan a rebèl nou ye, ak pòtè a desepsyon?
5 who call upon idols under the leafy trees, slaying your children in the valleys among the rocks?
Kap limen tèt nou pami bwadchenn yo, anba tout gwo bwa vèt, ki fè masak timoun yo nan ravin yo, anba fenèt wòch gwo falèz yo?
6 That is your portion, this is your lot: and to them have you poured forth drink-offerings, and to these have you offered meat-offerings. Shall I not therefore be angry for these things?
Pami wòch swa nan ravin nan se pòsyon pa w; pou yo menm ou te voye osò a. Menm pou yo menm, ou te vide yon ofrann bwason. Ou te fè yon ofrann sereyal. Èske M ta dwe ralanti konsènan bagay sa yo?
7 On a lofty and high mountain, there is your bed, and there you carried up your meat-offerings:
Sou yon gwo mòn byen wo, ou te fè kabann ou. Anplis, se la, ou te monte pou ofri sakrifis.
8 and behind the posts of your door you did place your memorials. Did you think that if you should depart from me, you would gain? you have loved those that lay with you;
Dèyè pòt la ak chanbrann pòt la, ou te fè monte souvni ou; ou te ouvri ou menm a yon lòt sòf ke mwen. Konsa, ou te monte. Ou te ale fè kabann ou byen laj. Konsa ou te antann ou avèk yo. Ou te byen renmen sa ou te we sou kabann yo.
9 and you have multiplied your whoredom with them, and you have increased the number of them that are far from you, and have sent ambassadors beyond your borders, and have been debased even to hell. (Sheol h7585)
Ou te ale kote wa a ak lwil, e ou te ogmante pafen ou yo; ou te voye mesaje ou yo rete lwen, e te degrade ou menm jis rive nan Sejou mò yo. (Sheol h7585)
10 You has wearied yourself with your many ways; yet you said not, I will cease to strengthen myself: for you has done these things; therefore you has not supplicated me.
Ou te fatige akoz wout ou te long, men ou pa t di: ‘Nanpwen espwa.’ Ou te jwenn fòs renouvle. Ou pa t febli menm.
11 Through dread of whom have you feared, and lied against me, and has not remembered, nor considered me, nor regarded me, yes, though when I see you I pass you by, yet you has not feared me.
De kilès ou te pè e twouble a, ki fè w manti pou w pa sonje Mwen an, ni menm panse a Mwen an? Èske Mwen pa t rete an silans pou anpil tan ki fè ou pa gen lakrent Mwen an?
12 And I will declare your righteousness, and your sins, which shall not profit you.
Mwen va deklare ladwati ou ak zèv ou yo, men yo p ap nan avantaj ou.
13 When you cry out, let them deliver you in your affliction: for all these the wind shall take, and the tempest shall carry [them] away: but they that cleave to me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain.
Lè ou vin kriye fò, kite zidòl ou yo delivre ou. Men van an va pote yo ale. Yon souf va rale yo monte. Men sila ki kache nan Mwen an va eritye peyi a. Li va posede mòn sen Mwen an.”
14 And they shall say, Clear the ways before him, and take up the stumbling blocks out of the way of my people.
Li va di: “Fè l monte, fè l monte, prepare chemen an! Retire obstak la ki nan wout pèp Mwen an.”
15 Thus says the Most High, who dwells on high for ever, Holy in the holies, is his name, the Most High resting in the holies, and giving patience to the faint-hearted, and giving life to the broken-hearted:
Paske se konsa Sila ki wo e egzalte, Sila ki viv jis pou tout tan an, non a Li se Sila ki Sen an, pale: “Mwen rete nan kote ki wo e ki sen, anplis ak li menm ki gen kè ki pi e ki enb, pou fè leve lespri a enb yo, e fè leve kè a sila a ki plen regrè pou peche.
16 I will not take vengeance on you for ever, neither will I be always angry with you: for my Spirit shall go forth from me, and I have created all breath.
Mwen p ap goumen ak ou pou tout tan, ni se pa pou tout tan ke M ap fache a; paske lespri a ta vin fèb devan M, ak nanm a sila ke M te fè yo.
17 On account of sin for a little while I grieved him, and struck him, and turned away my face from him; and he was grieved, and he went on sorrowful in his ways.
Akoz inikite gwo lanvi li, Mwen te fè kòlè, e Mwen te frape li. Mwen te kache figi Mwen; Mwen te fache. Konsa li te kontinye regrese nan wout kè l te pran an.
18 I have seen his ways, and healed him, and comforted him, and given him true comfort;
Mwen te wè chemen li yo; malgre sa, M ap geri li; Mwen va mennen li e restore konsolasyon a li menm ak sila k ap lamante pou li.
19 peace upon peace to them that are far off, and to them that are near: and the Lord has said, I will heal them.
Mwen kreye fwi a lèv yo: “Lapè, lapè, pou sila ki lwen yo, ak pou sila ki pre yo,” SENYÈ a di: “Epi Mwen va geri yo.”
20 But the unrighteous shall be tossed as troubled waves, and shall not be able to rest.
Men mechan yo tankou lanmè k ap boulvèse. Li p ap ka kalme, e dlo yo rale fè monte fatra ak labou.
21 There is no joy to the ungodly, said God.
“Nanpwen lapè” Bondye Mwen an di: “pou mechan yo”.
