< Isaiah 61 >
1 [the] spirit of [the] Lord Yahweh [is] on me because he has anointed Yahweh me to bear news humble [people] he has sent me to bind up [people] broken of heart to proclaim to captives liberty and to prisoners re-lease.
Lespri Bondye, Seyè a, desann sou mwen. Paske Seyè a chwazi m', li voye m' pou m' anonse bon nouvèl la bay moun ki nan lapenn yo, pou m' geri tout moun k'ap soufri yo, pou m' fè tout moun yo te depòte yo konnen yo delivre, pou m' fè tout prizonye yo konnen pòt prizon louvri pou yo.
2 To proclaim a year of favor of Yahweh and a day of vengeance of God our to comfort all mourners.
Li voye m' anonse lè a rive pou Seyè a vin delivre pèp li a, jou a rive pou Bondye nou an vin tire revanj pou nou. Li voye m' ankouraje tout moun ki nan lafliksyon,
3 To put - to [the] mourners of Zion to give to them a turban in place of ash[es] oil of joy in place of mourning a mantle of praise in place of a spirit faint and it will be called to them [the] oaks of righteousness [the] planting of Yahweh to glorify himself.
pou m' bay moun mòn Siyon ki nan lafliksyon yo kè kontan nan plas lapenn yo, kontantman nan plas kè sere yo a. M'ap mete nan bouch yo chante remèsiman nan plas chante plenyen. Yo pral grandi tankou gwo pyebwa nan jaden Seyè a te plante ak men l'. Yo tout pral fè sa ki dwat devan Bondye, pou tout moun ka fè lwanj bèl pouvwa li.
4 And they will rebuild [the] ruins of antiquity [the] desolate [places] former they will raise up and they will renew [the] cities of devastation [the] desolate [places] of a generation and a generation.
Yo gen pou yo rebati sou anplasman vye lavil yo. Y'a repare kay moun yo te bandonnen depi lontan. Y'a rebati lavil ki te fin kraze yo, kay ki te fin tounen mazi depi lontan yo.
5 And they will stand strangers and they will shepherd flock[s] your and sons of foreignness [will be] farmers your and vinedressers your.
Se moun lòt nasyon ki va pran swen mouton nou yo. Se moun vini ki va travay jaden nou yo, ki va okipe jaden rezen nou yo.
6 And you priests of Yahweh you will be called [the] servants of God our it will be said of you [the] wealth of nations you will consume and in abundance their you will boast.
Men nou menm, y'a rele nou prèt Seyè a. Wi, y'a rele nou Sèvitè Bondye nou an! N'a jwi richès lòt nasyon yo. Tout bèl bagay lakay yo, se pou nou y'a ye.
7 In place of shame your double and ignominy they will shout for joy portion their therefore in land their double they will possess joy of perpetuity it will belong to them.
Kote yo te konn fè nou wont, se sou tèt y'a pote nou. Kote yo te konn pase nou nan rizib, y'a fè gwo fèt pou nou. N'a rete nan peyi nou, richès nou va double. N'a toujou gen kè kontan san rete.
8 For I Yahweh [am] loving justice [I am] hating robbery with injustice and I will give recompense their in faithfulness and a covenant of perpetuity I will make to them.
Seyè a di: -Mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen renmen sa ki dwat, mwen pa vle wè lè moun ap vòlò, lè moun ap fè lenjistis. M'a kenbe pawòl mwen, m'a bay pèp mwen an rekonpans yo, m'a pase ak yo yon kontra k'ap la pou tout tan.
9 And it will be known among the nations offspring their and descendants their in among the peoples all [those who] see them they will recognize them that they [are] offspring [whom] he has blessed Yahweh.
Nan tout peyi, y'a nonmen non yo. Pitit pitit yo va gen bon non nan mitan lòt pèp yo. Tout moun ki va wè yo va konnen se yon ras moun mwenmenm menm, Seyè a, mwen beni.
10 Certainly I will rejoice in Yahweh it may be glad self my in God my for he has clothed me garments of salvation a robe of righteousness he has covered me like bridegroom [who] he acts like a priest a turban and like bride [who] she adorns herself ornaments her.
Se pa ti kontan kè m' kontan pou sa Seyè a fè. M'ap fè fèt pou Bondye mwen an. Paske mwen tankou yon nèg k'ap marye ki fin abiye pou nòs la, tankou yon lamarye k'ap ranje bijou l' yo sou li. Li kouvri m' ak pouvwa li pou l' sove m'. Li vlope m' nan bra li pou l' delivre m'.
11 For like the ground [which] it brings forth growth its and like a garden [which] things sown in it it makes grow so - [the] Lord Yahweh he will make grow righteousness and praise before all the nations.
Menm jan tè a fè ti plant yo pouse, menm jan grenn yo leve nan jaden, konsa tou, Seyè ki la pou tout tan an va delivre pèp li a. Tout nasyon va fè lwanj li toupatou.
