Isaiah 11
1 Then shall spring forth a shoot from the stem of Jesse, And a sprout grow up from his roots.
Menm jan yon ti plan pouse soti nan rasin yon pyebwa yo koupe, yon ti kreyòl soti nan chouk li, se konsa tou yon wa pral soti nan ras David la.
2 The spirit of Jehovah shall rest upon him, The spirit of wisdom and understanding, The spirit of counsel and might, The spirit of the knowledge and of the fear of Jehovah,
Lespri Bondye a pral desann sou li. L'ap ba li bon konprann ak lespri. L'ap ba li konesans ak ladrès pou l' dirije. L'ap fè l' konn Seyè a, l'ap fè l' gen krentif pou li.
3 He shall take delight in the fear of Jehovah; He shall not judge by the sight of his eyes, Nor decide by the hearing of his ears.
L'a pran plezi l' pou l' obeyi Seyè a nan tout bagay. Li p'ap gade sou figi moun pou l' jije yo. Li p'ap rete sou sa yo vin di l' pou l' rann jijman.
4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, And decide with equity for the afflicted of the land; He shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth; With the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
L'ap rann jijman pou pòv yo san patipri. L'ap defann dwa pòv malere nan peyi a san paspouki. L'ap denonse sa moun ap fè nan peyi a, l'ap pini yo. L'ap soufle ak bouch li sou mechan yo, l'ap disparèt yo.
5 Righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, And faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
L'a gouvènen pèp la san patipri, l'a dirije pèp la jan sa dwe fèt!
6 Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb, And the leopard shall lie down with the kid; The calf, and the young lion, and the fatling shall be together, And a little child shall lead them.
Bèt nan bwa ak mouton va viv ansanm. Tig pral kouche menm kote ak jenn kabrit. Jenn ti bèf ak jenn ti lyon pral manje ansanm. Lèfini, se yon timoun ki pral okipe yo.
7 The cow and the bear shall feed together, Together shall their young lie down, And the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
Manman bèf ak manman lous va manje ansanm nan menm savann. Ti bèf ak ti lous va jwe ansanm. Lyon va manje zèb tankou bèf.
8 The suckling shall play upon the hole of the asp, And the near-weaned child lay his hand on the hiding-place of the basilisk.
Ti bebe nan tete va jwe devan twou koulèv. Timoun fèk sevre va lonje men yo nan bouch twou sèpan san anyen p'ap rive yo.
9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain; For the land shall be full of the knowledge of Jehovah, As the waters cover the depths of the sea.
Pesonn p'ap fè mechanste. Pesonn p'ap fè sa ki mal sou mòn ki apa pou Bondye a, sou mòn Siyon an! Paske kè tout moun nan peyi a pral plen konesans Bondye, menm jan fon lanmè a plen dlo.
10 In that day shall the shoot of Jesse stand as a banner to the nations, And to him shall the gentiles repair, And his dwelling-place shall be glorious.
Yon jou gen pou vini. Lè sa a, ti kreyòl ki va soti nan chouk fanmi Izayi a va kanpe tankou yon siy pou tout nasyon yo. Moun va soti toupatou pou yo vin bò kote l'. Y'a fè lwanj li nan lavil kote l' rete a.
11 In that day shall Jehovah the second time stretch forth his hand To recover the remnant of his people, That remaineth, from Assyria, and from Egypt, And from Pathros, and from Ethiopia, and from Elam, And from Shinar, and from Hamath, And from the islands of the sea.
Jou sa a, Seyè a va fè wè fòs ponyèt li yon dezyèm fwa ankò. L'a delivre ti rès pèp li a, ponyen moun ki rete nan sa yo te depòte nan peyi Lasiri, nan peyi Lejip, ak nan tout peyi sa yo: Patwòs, Letiopi, Elam, Babilòn ak Amat, nan tout peyi lakòt yo ak nan tout zile yo.
12 He shall set up a banner to the nations, And gather the outcasts of Israel, And bring together the dispersed of Judah, From the four extremities of the earth.
Seyè a pral leve yon drapo pou l' fè moun lòt nasyon yo wè li pral sanble tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo te depòte yo. L'ap ranmase tout moun pèp Jida ki te gaye toupatou sou latè yo. L'ap mennen yo tounen nan peyi yo.
13 Then shall the jealousy of Ephraim depart, And the enmity in Judah be at an end; Ephraim shall not be jealous of Judah, And Judah shall not contend with Ephraim.
Moun peyi Efrayim yo p'ap fè jalouzi ankò. Peyi Jida a p'ap kenbe moun nan kè ankò. Moun peyi Efrayim yo p'ap anvye sò moun Jida yo. Moun Jida yo p'ap lènmi ankò ak moun Izrayèl yo.
14 But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines at the sea; Together shall they plunder the children of the East; On Edom and Moab shall they lay their hand, And the sons of Ammon shall be subject to them.
Y'ap mete ansanm, yo pral atake moun Filisti yo ki bò solèy kouche, yo pral piye moun k'ap viv bò solèy leve yo. Yo pral donminen sou peyi Edon ak sou peyi Moab. Moun peyi Amon pral soumèt devan yo.
15 Then will Jehovah utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea, And shake his hand over the river with a mighty wind, And smite it into seven streams, So that men may go over it dry-shod.
Seyè a pral voye yon van cho ki pral cheche tout dlo gwo larivyè Lejip la. Li pral cheche dlo larivyè Lefrat la. L'ap fè l' tounen sèt ti kannal dlo, konsa tout moun ka janbe l' ak tout sapat nan pye yo.
16 And it shall be a highway for the remnant of the people, Which shall remain, from Assyria, As there was to Israel, When he came up from the land of Egypt.
L'ap louvri yon gran chemen soti peyi Lasiri pou rès pèp li a k'ap viv laba a, menm jan li te fè l' pou pèp Izrayèl la jou yo t'ap soti kite Lejip la.
