Isaiah 14
1 For YHWH loves Jacob, And has fixed again on Israel, And given them rest on their own land, And the sojourner has been joined to them, And they have been admitted to the house of Jacob.
SENYÈ a va ankò gen konpasyon sou Jacob, pou l chwazi Israël ankò e fè yo rete nan pwòp peyi yo. Etranje yo va vin jwenn ak yo e atache yo menm a kay Jacob la.
2 And peoples have taken them, And have brought them to their place, And the house of Israel has inherited them, On the land of YHWH, For menservants and for maidservants, And they have been captors of their captors, And have ruled over their exactors.
Yo va mennen yo fè yo vini nan plas yo, e lakay Israël va posede yo nan peyi SENYÈ a, kon sèvant ak sèvitè. Konsa, yo va pran sila ki te pran yo kaptif yo, yo va kaptire yo e vin mèt sou sila ki te oprime yo.
3 And it has come to pass, In the day of YHWH’s giving rest to you, From your grief, and from your trouble, And from the sharp bondage, That has been served on you,
Li va rive nan jou lè SENYÈ a ba ou repò sou doulè ou, twoub ou ak redi di nan sila ou te vin esklav la,
4 That you have taken up this allegory Concerning the king of Babylon, and said, “How the exactor has ceased,
Ke ou va pran chante sa a kont wa Babylon nan epi di: “Gade kijan opresè a vin sispann! Gwo twoub la pa la ankò!”
5 The golden one has ceased. YHWH has broken the staff of the wicked, The scepter of rulers.
SENYÈ a fin kase baton a mechan an, baton a wa yo
6 He who is striking peoples in wrath, A striking without intermission, He who is ruling nations in anger, Pursuing without restraint!
ki te konn frape pèp la ak gran kolè, ak kou san rete, ki te soumèt nasyon yo ak gwo kòlè ak gwo pèsekisyon san fren.
7 At rest—all the earth has been quiet, They have broken forth [into] singing.
Tout latè gen repo e rete kalm. Yo eklate ak chante kè kontan yo.
8 Even firs have rejoiced over you, Cedars of Lebanon, [saying], Since you have lain down, The hewer does not come up against us.
Menm bwa siprè yo rejwi sou ou e bwa sèd Liban yo ap di: “Paske ou te bese ou, pa gen moun ki koupe bwa k ap monte kont nou.
9 Sheol beneath has been troubled at you, To meet your coming in, It is waking up Rephaim for you, All chief ones of earth, It has raised up from their thrones All kings of nations. (Sheol h7585)
Sejou mò a depi anba, gen kè kontan sou ou, pou l ka rankontre ou lè ou vini. Li leve menm pou ou lespri mò yo, tout chèf sou tout latè yo. Li fè leve tout wa a tout nasyon yo soti nan twòn yo. (Sheol h7585)
10 All of them answer and say to you, Even you have become weak like us! You have become like to us!
Yo tout va reponn epi mande ou: ‘Ou menm, èske ou vin fèb tankou nou? Èske ou vini tankou nou?’
11 Your excellence has been brought down to Sheol, The noise of your stringed instruments, The worm has been spread out under you, Indeed, the worm is covering you. (Sheol h7585)
Tout gwo bagay fèt ou ak mizik ap ou yo fin desann rive nan sejou mò yo. Se vè ki fè kabann anba ou e se vè k ap kouvri ou.” (Sheol h7585)
12 How you have fallen from the heavens, O shining one, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to earth, O weakener of nations.
Kòman ou te tonbe soti nan syèl la, O zetwal granmmaten an! Ou te koupe ra tè; ou menm ki te detwi tout nasyon yo!
13 And you said in your heart: I go up into the heavens, I raise my throne above the stars of God, And I sit on the mountain of meeting in the sides of the north.
Men nan kè ou, ou te di: “Mwen va monte jis rive nan syèl la! Mwen va fè leve twòn mwen piwo zetwal Bondye yo! Mwen va chita sou mòn asanble a nan fon nò yo!
14 I go up above the heights of a thick cloud, I am like to the Most High.
Mwen va monte piwo nwaj yo! Mwen va fè mwen menm tankou Pi Wo a!”
Sepandan, ou va pouse desann nan Sejou mò yo, kote fon a gwo fòs la ye a. (Sheol h7585)
16 Your beholders look to you, they attend to you, Is this the man causing the earth to tremble, Shaking kingdoms?
Sila ki wè ou va fikse zye sou ou. Yo va reflechi sou ou pou di: “Èske se nonm sila a ki te fè tè a tranble a, ki te souke wayòm yo?
17 He has made the world as a wilderness, And he has broken down his cities, He did not open the house of his bound ones.
Ki te fè mond lan tankou yon dezè a, ki te boulvèse gwo vil li yo, ki te refize kite prizonye li yo ale lakay yo?”
18 All kings of nations—all of them, Have lain down in glory, each in his house,
Tout wa sou latè yo kouche nan glwa yo, yo chak nan pwòp tonbo pa yo.
19 And you have been cast out of your grave, As an abominable branch, raiment of the slain, Thrust through ones of the sword, Going down to the sons of the pit, As a carcass trodden down.
Men ou menm, ou te jete deyò tonbo pa ou a, tankou yon branch rejte, abiye ak sila ki te touye yo, ki te pèse ak nepe yo, ki te desann kote wòch a fòs la tankou yon kadav, kraze foule ak pye.
20 You are not united with them in burial, For you have destroyed your land, You have slain your people, The seed of evildoers is not named for all time.
Ou p ap reyini ak yo nan antèman, akoz ou te detwi peyi ou a. Ou te touye pèp ou a. Konsa, non desandan a malfektè sila yo pa p nonmen jis pou tout tan!
21 Prepare slaughter for his sons; Because of the iniquity of their fathers, They do not rise, nor have possessed the land, Nor filled the face of the world [with] cities.
Prepare pou fis li yo yon kote pou masak, akoz inikite a papa yo. Konsa pou yo pa leve pran posesyon latè e ranpli sifas mond lan ak gwo vil.
22 And I have risen up against them,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “And have cut off, in reference to Babylon, Name and remnant, and continuator and successor,” A declaration of YHWH.
“Mwen va leve kont yo”, deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo. “Mwen va koupe retire yo nèt de non Babylone ak desandan yo de sila ki fèt ak sila ki gen pou vini yo,” deklare SENYÈ a.
23 “And have made it for a possession of a hedgehog, And ponds of waters, And swept it with the broom of destruction,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts!
“Anplis, M ap fè l tounen yon marekaj pou kochon mawon yo. Mwen va bale li ak bale destriksyon an,” deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo.
24 YHWH of Hosts has sworn, saying, “As I thought—so has it not been? And as I counseled—it stands;
SENYÈ dèzame yo fin sèmante. Li te di: “Anverite, jan ke Mwen te fè plan an, se konsa li va rive! Jan ke M te planifye a, se konsa l ap kanpe!
25 To break Asshur in My land, And I tread him down on My mountain, And his yoke has turned from off them, Indeed, his burden turns aside from off their shoulder.
Pou M kraze Assyrie nan peyi Mwen an e pou M foule li sou mòn Mwen yo. Konsa jouk li va retire sou yo e gwo chaj li va sòti sou zepòl yo.
26 This [is] the counsel that is counseled for all the earth, And this [is] the hand that is stretched out for all the nations.
Sa se plan a ki te fòme kont tout tè a. Sa se men ki lonje kont tout nasyon yo.
27 For YHWH of Hosts has purposed, And who makes void? And His hand that is stretched out, Who turns it back?”
Paske SENYÈ dèzame yo te fè yon plan e se kilès ki ka anpeche l? Epi pou men lonje pa l la, se kilès ki ka fè l fè bak?”
28 In the year of the death of King Ahaz was this burden:
Nan ane Wa Achaz te mouri an, Pwofesi sa a te fèt:
29 “Do not rejoice, Philistia, all of you, That the rod of your striker has been broken, For from the root of a serpent comes out a viper, And its fruit [is] a flying, burning serpent.
Pa rejwi, O Peyi Filisten yo, nou tout, akoz baton ki te konn frape ou a fin kase. Soti nan rasin sèpan an, yon vipè va vin parèt, k ap fè kon fwi, yon sèpan k ap vole.
30 And the firstborn of the poor have delighted, And the needy lie down in confidence, And I have put to death your root with famine, And it slays your remnant.
Premyè nè malere a va manje byen, e endijan an va kouche ansekirite. Mwen va detwi rasin pa ou ak gwo grangou, e anplis l ap touye sila ki te chape yo.
31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city, You are melted, Philistia, all of you, For smoke has come from the north, And there is none alone in his set places.”
Rele anmwey, O pòtay la! Kriye fò, O Gran Vil la! Fann nèt, O Filistia, nou tout! Paske lafimen ap sòti nan nò e nanpwen moun k ap fè reta. Lennmi a kwense nou nèt.
32 And what does one answer the messengers of a nation? That YHWH has founded Zion, And the poor of His people take refuge in it!
Alò, kòman yon moun ka reponn mesaje a nasyon yo? Ke se SENYÈ a ki te etabli Sion, e aflije a pèp Li yo va chache sekou nan li.
