< Isaiah 52 >

1 Awake, awake, put on your strength, Zion; put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, holy city; for never again will the uncircumcised or the unclean enter you.
Leve, leve! Abiye ou menm ak fòs ou, O Sion. Abiye ak bèl vètman ou yo, O Jérusalem, vil sen an; paske ensikonsi yo ak pa pwòp yo p ap antre kote ou a ankò.
2 Shake yourself off from the dust; arise and sit, Jerusalem; take off the chain from your neck, captive, daughter of Zion.
Souke leve kò ou sòti nan pousyè a, O kaptif Jérusalem nan! Retire chenn sa yo nan kou ou, O fi kaptif a Sion an.
3 For this is what Yahweh says, “You were sold for nothing, and you will be redeemed without money.”
Paske konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Ou te vann pou granmesi e ou va rachte san vèse lajan.”
4 For this is what the Lord Yahweh says, “In the beginning my people went down to live temporarily in Egypt; and Assyria has oppressed them for no good reason.
Paske konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Pèp Mwen an nan kòmansman, te desann an Égypte pou rezide la, epi Asiryen yo te oprime yo san koz.
5 Now what do I have here—this is Yahweh's declaration—seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them mock—this is Yahweh's declaration—and my name is blasphemed continually all day long.
Alò, pou sa, kisa Mwen gen pou fè isit la?” deklare SENYÈ a, “konsi pèp Mwen an te retire san koz?” Ankò deklare SENYÈ a: “Konsi, pèp Mwen rachte pou reyen, epi sila ki renye sou yo giyonnen yo ak kè kontan, e non Mwen blasfeme tout lajounen,
6 Therefore my people will know my name; they will know in that day that I am the one who says, “Yes, it is I!”
pou sa, pèp Mwen an va konnen non Mwen. Pou sa, nan jou sa a, yo va konnen se Mwen menm k ap pale. Gade byen, se Mwen!”
7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of the messenger who brings good news, who announces peace, who bears good tidings, who announces salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
A la bèl sou mon yo, se pye a sila ki pote bòn nouvèl la, ki anonse lapè, ki pote bòn nouvèl k ap fè kè kontan, ki anonse Sali, ki di a Sion: “Bondye pa ou a renye!”
8 Listen, your watchmen raise their voices, together they shout for joy, for they will see, every eye of theirs, Yahweh's return to Zion.
Gadyen ou yo leve vwa yo. Yo rele fò ak kè kontan ansanm; paske yo va wè ak pwòp zye yo lè SENYÈ a retounen nan Sion an.
9 Break out into joyful singing together, you ruins of Jerusalem; for Yahweh has comforted his people; he has redeemed Jerusalem.
Eklate, rele ak jwa ansanm, kote ki dezole Jérusalem yo, paske SENYÈ a te konsole pèp Li a. Li te rachte Jérusalem.
10 Yahweh has bared his holy arm in the sight of all the nations; all the earth will see the salvation of our God.
SENYÈ a te dekouvri sen bra Li pou tout nasyon yo wè. Tout dènye pwent latè yo te wè sali a Bondye nou an.
11 Leave, leave, go out from there; touch nothing unclean; leave from her midst; purify yourselves, you who carry the vessels of Yahweh.
Sòti! Sòti! Kite kote sa a! Pa touche anyen ki pa pwòp! Sòti nan mitan li! Vin pirifye nou menm! Netwaye nou, nou ki pote veso SENYÈ a.
12 For you will not go out in a rush, nor will you leave in a panic; for Yahweh will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your rearguard.
Nou p ap kite ak gran vites, ni nou p ap kouri devan moun; paske SENYÈ a va ale devan nou e Bondye Israël la va fè gad an aryè.
13 Look, my servant will act wisely; he will be high and lifted up, and he will be exalted.
Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen an va aji avèk sajès. Li va leve wo, e vin egzalte anpil.
14 As many were horrified at you— his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man, and his form no longer looked like anything human.
Menm jan ke anpil moun te etone de ou— konsa aparans Li te defòme plis ke tout lòt moun, e fòm li plis ke fis a lòm yo.
15 Even so, my servant will sprinkle many nations and kings will shut their mouths because of him. For that which they had not been told, they will see, and that which they had not heard, they will understand.
Konsa, Li va farinen sou anpil nasyon. Wa yo va pe bouch yo pou koz Li; paske sa ke yo pa t konn tande a, yo va wè l, e sa ke yo pa t koute, yo va konprann li.
