< Isaiah 16 >

1 Send a lamb [the] ruler of [the] land from Sela [the] wilderness towards to [the] mountain of [the] daughter of Zion.
Moun peyi Moab yo ap rete lavil Sila nan dezè a, y'ap voye yon mouton fè chèf lavil Jerizalèm lan kado sou tèt mòn Siyon an.
2 And it will be like a bird fluttering a nest sent away they will be [the] daughters of Moab [the] fords of Arnon.
Y'ap rete tann bò larivyè Anon an. Yo san pozisyon, yo tankou ti zwazo yo mete deyò nan nich yo.
3 (Bring *Q(K)*) counsel make a decision make like night shade your in [the] middle of [the] noon hide outcasts a fugitive may not you expose.
Y'ap di moun peyi Jida yo: -Ban nou ti konsèy non! Di nou sa pou nou fè! Pwoteje nou anba zèl ou, tankou yon pyebwa k'ap bay bon lonbray fre gwo midi. Se chape n'ap chache chape kò nou. Tanpri, kache nou. Pa lage nou nan men lènmi nou yo.
4 Let them sojourn among you outcasts my Moab be a shelter of them from before [the] destroyer if he will come to an end the oppressor it will cease devastation they will be finished [the] trampler from the land.
Kite nou rete nan peyi nou an. Pwoteje nou anba moun ki soti pou fini ak nou yo. Moun ki t'ap kraze nou an p'ap la ankò. Piyay la ap fini. Moun ki t'ap pilonnen peyi a anba pye yo a ap disparèt.
5 And it will be established in covenant loyalty a throne and he will sit on it in faithfulness in [the] tent of David [one who] judges and [one who] seeks justice and [one] prompt of righteousness.
Gouvènman peyi Jida a pral kanpe byen kanpe. Yon chèf pral soti nan ras fanmi wa David la. Li pral moute chita sou fotèy la pou l' dirije pèp la avèk bon kè, san patipri. L'ap soti pou l' fè sa ki dwat devan Bondye. L'ap prese fè tout moun jistis.
6 We have heard [the] pride of Moab proud very haughtiness its and pride its and arrogance its [are] not right empty boasts its.
Moun peyi Jida yo di: -Nou tande jan moun Moab yo se moun ki gen lògèy. Wa pa kouzen yo. Nou konnen jan yo estomake, jan yo gen gwo tanta, jan yo awogan. Men, tou sa se van. Anyen menm!
7 Therefore it will wail Moab for Moab all of it it will wail for [the] raisin-cakes of Kir Hareseth you will groan only stricken people.
Men moun Moab yo pral plenyen sò peyi Moab la. Yo tout pral kriye lè y'a chonje bon pen rezen yo konn jwenn lavil Kyerès. Yo pral plenn, y'ap pèdi tout kouraj yo.
8 For [the] fields of Heshbon it has withered [the] vine[s] of Sibmah rulers of nations they have struck down choice grapes its to Jazer they reached they wandered [the] wilderness shoots its they were spread out they passed over [the] sea.
Gwo jaden peyi Esbon yo pral deperi. Pye rezen lavil Sibma yo ki te konn bay bon diven chèf nasyon yo te konn bwè a pral cheche. Te gen yon lè jaden rezen sa yo te rive jouk bò lavil Jazè. Yo te pouse kouvri tout dezè a. Yo te gaye kò yo toupatou rive lòt bò lanmè Mouri a.
9 There-fore I weep with [the] weeping of Jazer [the] vine[s] of Sibmah I water abundantly you tear[s] my O Heshbon and Elealeh for on summer fruit your and on harvest your shouting it has fallen.
Se poutèt sa, m'ap kriye pou pye rezen Sibma yo, jan mwen te kriye pou jaden rezen Jazè yo. Dlo ap kouri nan je m' pou Esbon ak Eleale, paske moun ap rele pou bèl rezen yo te konn rekòlte la a.
10 And it will be removed gladness and rejoicing from the orchard and in the vineyards not anything will be sung not anything will be shouted wine in the wine-presses not he will tread the treader shouting I have made to cease.
Nanpwen kè kontan ak fèt nan jaden nou yo! Nan jaden rezen nou yo, nanpwen chante, nanpwen koudjay ankò! Pa gen rezen pou kraze nan basen kote yo fè ji. Tout fèt kaba!
11 There-fore inward parts my for Moab like harp they make a sound and inner being my for Kir Heres.
Se poutèt sa, m'a plenn, kè m' fè m' mal pou peyi Moab, mwen nan gwo lapenn pou lavil Kyerès.
12 And it will be that it has presented itself if it has wearied itself Moab on the high place and it will come to sanctuary its to pray and not it will prevail.
Moun peyi Moab yo ap touye tèt yo moute nan mòn. Yo pral nan tanp pou yo lapriyè. Men, sa p'ap sèvi yo anyen.
13 This [is] the word which he has spoken Yahweh concerning Moab from then.
Anvan sa, men sa Seyè a te di k'ap rive lavil Moab la.
14 And now he says Yahweh saying in three years like [the] years of a hired laborer and it will be lightly esteemed [the] honor of Moab for all the multitude great and a remnant little smallness not [will be] mighty.
Koulye a, Seyè a pale ankò. Li di konsa: Nan twazan, jou pou jou, tankou moun k'ap travay pou lajan kalkile lè travay yo, yo pral pase sa ki fè pouvwa peyi Moab la nan tenten. Atout li gen anpil moun koulye a, se de twa ase ki pral rete, yon ti ponyen tou fèb ki p'ap vo anyen!
