Daniel 9
1 “In the first year of Darius, son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who has been made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans,
Nan premye ane Darius, fis a Assuérus, Mèd la, ki te vin wa sou wayòm a Kaldeyen yo—
2 in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, have understood by scrolls the number of the years (in that a word of YHWH has been to Jeremiah the prophet), concerning the fulfilling of the desolations of Jerusalem—seventy years;
nan premye ane a règn pa li a, mwen menm, Daniel, mwen te konprann selon liv yo, nonb dèzane selon pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Jérémie, pwofèt la, pou ta fè akonplisman dezolasyon a Jérusalem yo, menm swasann-dis ane yo.
3 and I set my face toward the Lord God, to seek [by] prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.
Konsa, mwen te chache fas Senyè Bondye a, pou jwenn Li nan lapriyè ak siplikasyon, fè jèn ak twal sak ak sann.
4 And I pray to my God YHWH, and confess, and say: Ah, now, O Lord God, the great and the fearful, keeping the covenant and the kindness to those loving Him and to those keeping His commands;
Mwen te priye a SENYÈ a, Bondye mwen an. Mwen te konfese e mwen te di: “O SENYÈ, Gran Bondye ki etonnan la, ki kenbe akò ak mizerikòd li pou sila ki renmen Li, e ki swiv kòmandman Li yo,
5 we have sinned, and done perversely, and done wickedly, and rebelled, to turn aside from Your commands, and from Your judgments:
nou te peche; nou te komèt inikite. Nou te aji ak mechanste e nou te fè rebèl, jiskaske nou vire kite kòmandman Ou yo ak règleman Ou yo.
6 and we have not listened to Your servants, the prophets, who have spoken in Your Name to our kings, our heads, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
Anplis, nou pa t koute sèvitè Ou yo, pwofèt yo, ki te pale nan non Ou, a wa nou yo, prens nou yo, papa zansèt nou yo, ak tout moun peyi a.
7 To You, O Lord, [is] the righteousness, and to us the shame of face, as [at] this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, in all the lands to where You have driven them, in their trespass that they have trespassed against You.
Ladwati apatyen a Ou menm, O Senyè! Men a nou menm, gwo wont parèt byen klè, jan li ye jis rive nan jou sa a; a moun Juda yo, sila k ap viv Jérusalem, ak tout Israël yo, sila ki rete pre ak sila ki lwen, nan tout peyi kote Ou te chase yo ale akoz zak enfidèl ke yo te komèt kont Ou yo.
8 O Lord, to us [is] the shame of face, to our kings, to our heads, and to our fathers, in that we have sinned against You.
O Senyè, gwo wont ak twoub byen klè se akoz nou, ak wa nou yo, prens nou yo, ak papa zansèt nou yo, akoz yo te peche kont Ou.
9 To the Lord our God [are] the mercies and the forgivenesses, for we have rebelled against Him,
A Senyè Bondye nou an, se Mizerikòd ak padon akoz nou te fè rebèl kont Li.
10 and have not listened to the voice of our God YHWH, to walk in His laws, that He has set before us by the hand of His servants the prophets;
Ni nou pa t obeyi vwa SENYÈ Bondye nou an, pou mache nan enstriksyon ke Li te mete devan nou pa sèvitè Li yo, pwofèt yo.
11 and all Israel has transgressed Your law, to turn aside so as not to listen to Your voice; and poured on us is the execration, and the oath, that is written in the Law of Moses, servant of God, because we have sinned against Him.
Anverite tout Israël te transgrese lalwa Ou a, te vire akote e pa t obeyi vwa Ou. Konsa, malediksyon te vide sou nou, ansanm ak sèman ki ekri nan lalwa Moïse, sèvitè Bondye a, paske nou te peche kont Li.
12 And He confirms His words that He has spoken against us, and against our judges who have judged us, to bring great calamity on us, in that it has not been done under the whole heavens as it has been done in Jerusalem,
Li te konfime pawòl ke Li te pale kont nou, e kont chèf ki te gouvène nou yo, pou fè vini sou nou yon gwo malè. Paske anba tout syèl la, pa t janm gen okenn bagay ki te fèt tankou sa ki te fèt Jérusalem nan.
13 as it is written in the Law of Moses, all this evil has come on us, and we have not appeased the face of our God YHWH to turn back from our iniquities, and to act wisely in Your truth.
Jan sa ekri nan lalwa Moïse la, tout malè sa a te vini sou nou. Malgre sa, nou pa t chache gras a SENYÈ la, Bondye nou an, ak desizyon pou vire kite inikite nou, e vin okipe nou de verite pa Ou a.
14 And YHWH watches for the evil, and brings it on us, for our God YHWH is righteous concerning all His works that He has done, and we have not listened to His voice.
Akoz sa, SENYÈ a te kenbe malè nan men l, e te pote li sou nou. Paske, SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, dwat nan tout zèv ke Li fè yo, men nou pa t obeyi vwa li.
15 And now, O Lord our God, who has brought forth Your people from the land of Egypt by a strong hand, and makes for Yourself a name as at this day, we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
Konsa, Senyè, Bondye nou an, ki te mennen pèp Ou a sòti nan peyi Egypte la ak yon men pwisan, e te fè yon non pou Ou menm, jan sa ye nan jou sa a, nou te peche. Nou te fè mechanste.
16 O Lord, according to all Your righteous acts, please let Your anger and Your fury turn back from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain, for by our sins, and by the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people [are] for a reproach to all our neighbors;
O Senyè, an akò ak tout zak ladwati Ou yo, kite gwo kòlè ak mekontantman Ou vire kite vil Ou a, Jérusalem, mòn sen Ou an. Paske, akoz peche nou yo ak inikite a papa zansèt nou yo, Jérusalem ak pèp Ou a te vin yon repwòch pou tout sila ki antoure nou yo.
17 and now, listen, O our God, to the prayer of Your servant, and to his supplication, and cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary that [is] desolate, for the Lord’s sake.
Pou sa, koulye a, Bondye nou an, koute lapriyè a sèvitè Ou a, ak siplikasyon li yo, e pou koz a Ou menm, O Senyè, kite fas ou briye sou sanktiyè dezole Ou a.
18 Incline, O my God, Your ear, and hear, open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city on which Your Name is called; for not for our righteous acts are we causing our supplications to fall before You, but for Your mercies that [are] many.
O Bondye mwen an, apiye zòrèy W pou tande! Ouvri zye ou pou wè dezolasyon nou yo, ak vil la ki rele pa non Ou a; paske nou p ap prezante siplikasyon nou yo akoz okenn dwati de nou menm, men akoz gran mizerikòd Ou.
19 O Lord, hear, O Lord, forgive; O Lord, attend and do; do not delay, for Your own sake, O my God, for Your Name is called on Your city, and on Your people.
O Senyè, koute! O Senyè, padone! O Senyè, tande e aji! Pou koz pa Ou, O Bondye mwen an, pa fè reta. Paske vil Ou a, ak pèp Ou a rele pa non Ou.”
20 And while I am speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin, and the sin of my people Israel, and causing my supplication to fall before my God YHWH, for the holy mountain of my God,
Alò, pandan mwen t ap pale, e fè priyè a, pou m konfese peche m yo, ak peche a pèp mwen an, Israël, ak prezante siplikasyon mwen yo devan SENYÈ Bondye mwen an, pou mòn sen a Bondye mwen an—
21 indeed, while I am speaking in prayer, then that one Gabriel, whom I had seen in vision at the commencement, being caused to fly swiftly, is coming to me at the time of the evening present.
pandan mwen te toujou ap pale nan lapriyè a— alò, nonm nan Gabriel, ke m te wè nan vizyon oparavan an, te vole rive byen vit kote mwen, e te touche mwen vè lè pou ofrann nan aswè a.
22 And he gives understanding, and speaks with me, and says, O Daniel, now I have come forth to cause you to consider understanding wisely;
Li te ban mwen enstriksyon. Li te pale ak mwen e te di: “O Daniel, koulye a, mwen vin parèt pou bay sajès ak bon konprann.
23 at the commencement of your supplications the word has come forth, and I have come to declare [it], for you [are] greatly desired, and understand concerning the matter, and consider concerning the appearance.
Nan kòmansman siplikasyon ou yo, lòd la te fin pase, e mwen vini pou di Ou, paske ou se byeneme. Konsa, prete atansyon a mesaj la pou vin konprann vizyon an.
24 Seventy periods of seven are determined for your people and for your holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in continuous righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the Holy of Holies.
“Swasann-dis semèn te òdone pou pèp ou ak vil sen ou an, pou fini ak transgresyon, pou mete fen a peche yo, pou rekonsilye inikite yo, pou mennen fè antre ladwati ki san fen, pou mete so sou vizyon ak pwofesi, e pou onksyone lye ki sen pase tout la.
25 And you know, and consider wisely, from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem until Messiah the Leader [is] seven periods of seven, and sixty-two periods of seven: the broad place has been built again, and the rampart, even in the distress of the times.
“Konsa, ou ta dwe konnen e disène ke depi yon dekrè vin pibliye pou restore e rebati Jérusalem jis rive nan Onksyone a, Prens lan, va gen sèt semèn ak swasann-de semèn. Li va rebati ankò, ak plas la, e ak kanal ranpa a, menm nan yon tan ki twouble.
26 And after the sixty-two periods of seven, Messiah is cut off, but not for Himself, and the people of the leader who is coming destroy the city and the holy place; and its end [is] with a flood, and until the end [is] war, [and] desolations [are] determined.
Epi apre swasann-de semèn yo, Onksyone a va koupe retite nèt, e Li p ap gen anyen. E pèp a prens la ki vini an, va detwi vil ak sanktyè a. Epi lafen li an va vini ak yon inondasyon ak lagè jis rive nan lafèn. Konsa, dezolasyon yo deja detèmine.
27 And he has strengthened a covenant with many [for] one period of seven, and [in] the midst of the period of seven he causes sacrifice and present to cease, and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate, even until the consummation, and that which is determined is poured on the desolate one.”
Li va fè yon akò ki byen fò avèk anpil moun pandan yon semèn. Men nan mitan semèn nan, li va fè sispann sakrifis ak ofrann sereyal yo. Epi sou zèl abominasyon yo, va vini yon moun ki fè dezolasyon. Men lè l rive nan fen an nèt, ki deja detèmine, lakòlè va vide sou sila ki fè dezolasyon an.”
