Isaiah 27
1 In that day, will Yahweh With his sword—the hard and the great and the strong, Bring punishment Upon Leviathan, the fleeing serpent, And upon Leviathan, the crooked serpent, —And will slay the monster which is in the sea.
Jou sa a, Seyè a pral pran gwo nepe li a ki byen file, byen solid, li pral sèvi avè l' pou l' pini levyatan an, gwo koulèv ki konn kouri kache a, gwo koulèv ki konn tòde kò l' la. L'ap touye dragon k'ap viv nan lanmè a.
2 In that day, A Wine-Vineyard! sing ye unto her:
Jou sa a, y'a chante yon chante sou jaden rezen k'ap bay bon diven an.
3 I—Yahweh, am Watching over her, Every moment, will I water her, —Lest anyone injure her, Night and day, will I watch over her.
Se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap okipe jaden an. Se chak lè m'ap wouze l'. Lajounen kou lannwit m'ap veye l', pou pesonn pa fè l' anyen.
4 Fury, have I none, —Oh that there were delivered to me briars and thorns, in battle! I would march in among them I would set fire to them one and all.
Mwen pa fache avè l' ankò. Si mwen jwenn pikan ak move raje ladan l', m'a rache yo. M'a sanble yo, m'a boule yo nan dife.
5 Else, let one lay hold of my protection, Let him make peace with me, —Peace, let him make with me.
Men, si lènmi pèp mwen an vle pou m' pwoteje yo, se pou yo vin fè lapè ak mwen. Wi, se pou yo vin fè lapè ak mwen.
6 In coming times, shall Jacob strike root, Israel, shall blossom and bud, —Then shall they fill the face of the world with fruit.
Nan jou k'ap vini yo, fanmi Jakòb la pral pouse rasin ankò, pèp Izrayèl la pral boujonnen, li pral fè flè. Li pral kouvri latè ak donn l'ap bay.
7 Was it, with the smiting of his smiter, that he smote him? Or as with the slaying of his slayer, was he slain?
Seyè a pa t' pini l' menm jan li te pini lènmi l' yo. Li pa t' touye moun li yo menm jan li te touye moun ki t'ap ansasinen l' yo.
8 By driving her away—by dismissing her, wouldest thou contend with her? He removed her by his rough wind in, a day of east wind.
Pou l' te pini pèp la, li mete yo deyò nan peyi a, li fè depòte yo, li voye yon move van soti nan lès pote yo ale.
9 Therefore hereby, shall a propitiatory—covering be put over the iniquity of Jacob, And all, this, is the fruit of taking away his sin, —When he maketh all the stones of an altar like chalk-stones that soon crumble, Sacred Stems and Sun Images, shall not arise.
Men, pou l' padonnen peche pèp Izrayèl la, se pou tout wòch lotèl zidòl yo tounen pousyè lacho, se pou yo kraze tout estati zidòl yo ansanm ak lotèl kote yo boule lansan pou yo. Se konsa li p'ap fè yo peye pou sa yo fè a.
10 For the fortified city, is solitary, The dwelling forsaken and left as a wilderness, —There, shall the calf feed, And, there, lie down And shall consume the branches thereof:
Lavil ki te gen gwo ranpa ap fin kraze. Pa gen moun ki rete la ankò. Lavil la tounen yon savann. Se la jenn bèf vin rete, se la yo manje, se la yo kouche. Y'ap manje dènye ti pous raje.
11 When the cut-off boughs thereof are dry, they shall be broken to pieces, Women, coming, are kindling it! For it is not a people of understanding, For this cause, Will he that made him, not have compassion upon him, And, he that formed him, will shew him no favour.
Branch bwa yo cheche, yo kase. Medam yo ranmase yo pou fè dife. Paske pèp la pa t' konprann anyen, Bondye ki te kreye l' la p'ap gen pitye pou li. Bondye ki te fè l' la p'ap fè l' gras.
12 And it shall come to pass, in that day, That Yahweh will beat off his fruit from the stream of the River ["Euphrates"], unto the torrent-valley of Egypt, —And, ye, shall be picked up, one by one O sons of Israel.
Jou sa a, tankou lè y'ap bat pwa sou glasi, se Seyè a menm ki pral jije tout moun nan peyi a, depi bò larivyè Lefrat la jouk ravin ki sou fwontyè ak peyi Lejip la. Apre sa, nou menm pitit Izrayèl yo, l'ap ranmase nou grenn pa grenn, tankou lè y'ap ranmase grenn pwa sou glasi.
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, That there shall be a blowing with a great horn, Then shall come in Such as have wandered in the land of Assyria, And such as have been outcasts in the land of Egypt, —And they shall bow themselves down unto Yahweh In the holy mountain, In Jerusalem.
Wi, jou sa a, y'a kònen gwo twonpèt la. Tout moun ki t'ap deperi nan peyi Lasiri, tout moun yo te depòte nan peyi Lejip yo pral tounen lakay yo. Y'ap vin adore Seyè a sou mòn ki apa pou li a, nan lavil Jerizalèm.
