< Obadiah 1 >
1 [the] vision of Obadiah thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh of Edom a report we have heard from with Yahweh and an envoy among the nations he has been sent arise so let us arise on it for battle.
Mesaj pwofèt Abdyas sou peyi Edon. Men mesaj Seyè a te ban mwen: Nou te tande mesaj Seyè a te bay la. Li te voye mesaj li a nan tout nasyon yo pou di yo: Annavan! Leve non! Ann mache pran Edon! Ann al goumen avè l'!
2 Here! small I will make you among the nations [will be] despised you exceedingly.
Men sa Seyè a di moun peyi Edon yo: Mwen pral fè peyi nou an vin tou fèb nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Tout moun pral meprize nou nèt!
3 [the] presumption of Heart your it has deceived you O dweller in clefts of rock [the] height of dwelling his [who] says in heart his who? will he bring down me [the] ground.
Se awogans nou ki fè nou pèdi tèt nou. Nou bati kapital nou sou tèt gwo wòch yo. Nou moute kay nou byen wo nan mòn yo. Epi n'ap di nan kè nou: Ki moun ki ka fè nou desann la a!
4 If you will make high like eagle and if between [the] stars [will be] set nest your from there I will bring down you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Nou te mèt bati kay nou byen wo tankou nich malfini, nou te mèt mete nich nou byen wo tankou si li te nan mitan zetwal yo, m'ap voye nou jete anba, m'ap fè nou desann. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
5 If thieves they came to you if destroyers of night how! you will be destroyed ¿ not will they steal sufficiency their if grape gatherers they came to you ¿ not will they leave gleanings.
Lè vòlò antre lakay moun lannwit pou piye, yo annik pran sa yo bezwen. Lè moun ap ranmase rekòt rezen, yo toujou kite dèyè pou moun k'ap vin grapiye yo. Men, gade jan lènmi ravaje nou nèt ale non!
6 How! they will be plundered Esau they will be searched out hidden treasures its.
Yo fouye toupatou nan peyi Ezaou a. Yo pran tout trezò nou te kache yo.
7 To the border they will send away you all [the] men of covenant your they will deceive you they will prevail to you [the] men of peace your food your they will set a trap under you there not [is] understanding in him.
Tout moun ki te mete tèt ansanm avè nou yo woule nou byen woule. Yo mete nou deyò nan pwòp peyi nou an. Moun ki te pi bon zanmi nou yo twonpe nou byen twonpe. Moun ki te konn manje sou tab ansanm ak nou pare pèlen pou nou. Nou menm, nou pa menm wè sa!
8 ¿ Not on the day that ([the] utterance of *L(abh)*) Yahweh and I will destroy wise [people] from Edom and understanding from [the] mountain of Esau.
Seyè a di konsa: -Jou m'ap pini moun Edon yo, m'ap disparèt tout moun ki gen bon konprann nan peyi a, tout moun lespri ki rete sou mòn Ezaou a.
9 And they will be dismayed warriors your O Teman so that he may be cut off everyone from [the] mountain of Esau from slaughter.
Sòlda lavil Teman yo pral tranble nan kanson yo. Yo pral masakre tout gason peyi Edon ki konn goumen.
10 From [the] violence of brother your Jacob it will cover you shame and you will be cut off for ever.
Paske nou te masakre pitit pitit Jakòb yo, kouzen nou yo, paske nou te fè yo anpil mechanste, yo pral fè nou wont, yo pral disparèt nou nèt.
11 On [the] day standing you from before on [the] day took captive strangers wealth his and foreigners they came (gates his *Q(K)*) and on Jerusalem they cast a lot also you [were] like one from them.
Nou te rete kanpe la ap gade, lè moun lòt nasyon yo t'ap piye tout richès yo. Nou pa t' pi bon pase etranje yo ki te defonse pòtay yo lè sa a, ki te separe bay chak moun tout richès lavil Jerizalèm yo. Nou menm tou, nou te fè menm bagay la.
12 And may not you look on [the] day of brother your on [the] day of misfortune his and may not you rejoice to [the] people of Judah on [the] day perish they and may not you make big mouth your on [the] day of trouble.
Nou pa t' dwe kontan wè kouzen nou yo nan malè. Nou pa t' dwe kontan wè y'ap fini ak moun fanmi Jida yo. Nou pa t' dwe pase yo nan rizib, lè yo te nan tray.
13 May not you go in [the] gate of people my on [the] day of disaster their may not you look also you on calamity his on [the] day of disaster his and may not you stretch out on wealth his on [the] day of disaster his.
Nou pa t' dwe janbe pòtay lavil pèp mwen an pou nou te antre ladan l', jou malè te tonbe sou yo a. Nou pa t' dwe kontan wè jan y'ap soufri, jou malè te tonbe sou yo a. Nou pa t' dwe mete men nou sou byen yo, jou malè te tonbe sou yo a.
14 And may not you stand at the parting of ways to cut off fugitives his and may not you deliver up survivors his on [the] day of trouble.
Nou pa t' dwe kanpe nan kalfou yo pou nou touye sa ki t'ap chache chape kò yo. Nou pa t' dwe lage sa ki pa t' mouri yo nan men lènmi yo, jou malè te tonbe sou yo a.
15 For [is] near [the] day of Yahweh on all the nations just as you have done it will be done to you recompense your it will return on own head your.
Jou a pa lwen rive, kote mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen pral jije tout nasyon yo. Nou menm moun peyi Edon, sa nou te fè a, se sa yo pral fè nou tou. Yo pral fè nou sibi tou sa nou te fè lòt yo sibi.
16 For just as you have drunk on [the] mountain of holiness my they will drink all the nations continually and they will drink and they will swallow and they will be like not they had been.
Pèp mwen an pase pa l' anba men mwen sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an. Konsa tou, tout nasyon yo pral pran pa yo san rete. Yo pral pran jouk yo p'ap kapab ankò. Yo pral disparèt tankou si yo pa t' janm la.
17 And on [the] mountain of Zion it will be deliverance and it will be a holy place and they will take possession of [the] house Jacob possessions their.
Men, sou mòn Siyon an, kèk moun pral sove. Se yon kote ki pral apa nèt pou mwen. Moun fanmi Jakòb yo pral reprann tout peyi lènmi te wete nan men yo.
18 And it will be [the] house of Jacob a fire and [the] house of Joseph [will be] a flame and [the] house of Esau [will become] stubble and they will burn them and they will consume them and not he will belong a survivor to [the] house of Esau for Yahweh he has spoken.
Moun fanmi Jakòb yo pral tankou dife. Pitit pitit Jozèf yo pral tankou yon flanm dife. Yo pral detwi pitit Ezaou yo nèt tankou dife nan zèb chèch. Pesonn nan fanmi Ezaou a p'ap chape. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki di sa.
19 And they will take possession of the Negev [the] mountain of Esau and the Shephelah Philistines and they will take possession of [the] region of Ephraim and [the] region of Samaria and Benjamin Gilead.
Moun pèp Izrayèl ki rete nan zòn Negèv la pral pran mòn Ezaou a pou yo. Moun pèp Izrayèl ki rete nan plenn ki nan pye mòn Jida yo pral pran peyi moun Filisti yo nan men yo. Moun pèp Izrayèl yo pral pran peyi Efrayim ak peyi Samari pou yo. Moun Benjamen yo pral pran peyi Galarad la pou yo.
20 And [the] exile[s] of the fortress this of [the] people of Israel who [will be] Canaanites to Zarephath and [the] exile[s] of Jerusalem who [are] in Sepharad they will take possession of [the] cities of the Negev.
Nan moun yo te depòte yo, sòlda ki moun nan nò peyi Izrayèl la va pran peyi Kanaran an pou yo, rive lavil Sarepta. Men, moun lavil Jerizalèm yo te depòte nan peyi Sefara a va pran tout lavil Negèv yo pou yo.
21 And they will go up deliverers on [the] mountain of Zion to rule [the] mountain of Esau and it will belong to Yahweh the kingship.
Yo tout, y'a moute sou mòn Siyon an pou delivre l'. Se yo ki va gouvènen tout mòn Ezaou a. Lè sa a, se Seyè a menm ki va sèl wa.
