Isaiah 30
1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not from me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
“Malè a pitit k ap fè rebèl yo”, deklare SENYÈ a: “Sila ki resevwa konsèy, men ki pa pa M; ki fè yon alyans, men pa nan Lespri pa M, pou ogmante peche sou peche;
2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shade of Egypt!
ki fè wout desann an Égypte san konsilte Mwen, pou yo ka fè azil, pou Farawon bay yo sekirite, e pou yo chache pwotèj nan lonbraj Égypte!
3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shade of Egypt [your] confusion.
Akoz sa, sekirite Farawon va vin wont nou, e pwotèj nan lonbraj Égypte la va fè imilyasyon nou.
4 For his princes were at Zoan, and his embassadors came to Hanes.
Paske prens pa yo se nan Tsoan e anbasadè pa yo vin parèt nan Hanès.
5 They were all ashamed of a people [that] could not profit them, nor be a help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
Tout moun va vin wont akoz yon pèp ki p ap ka bay yo okenn avantaj, ni pou sekou, ni pou pwofi, men pou wont, e anplis, pou repwòch.”
6 The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence [come] the young and the old lion, the viper and flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people [that] shall not profit [them].
Pwofesi konsènan bèt nan dezè Midi yo. Atravè yon peyi gwo twoub ak gwo doulè, ladan ki sòti manman lyon ak lyon an, vipè ak sèpan volan an; yo pote gwo kantite byen yo sou do jenn bourik, e trezò yo sou do chamo, pou rive kote yon pèp ki pa kapab bay yo okenn avantaj.
7 For the Egyptian shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength [is] to sit still.
Paske sekou Égypte, se vanite san rezilta. Akoz sa, Mwen te rele li Rahab ki kanpe janm.
8 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
Koulye a, ale, ekri li sou yon adwaz devan yo, e enskri li sou yon woulo papye pou l ka sèvi nan tan k ap vini yo. Konsa la sèvi yon temwen jis pou tout tan.
9 That this [is] a rebellious people, lying children, children [that] will not hear the law of the LORD:
Paske sa se yon pèp rebèl, fis manti, fis ki refize koute enstriksyon SENYÈ a;
10 Who say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not to us right things, speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
ki di a konseye yo, “Ou pa dwe wè vizyon”, epi a pwofèt yo, “Ou pa dwe pwofetize a nou menm sa ki dwat. Pale nou bèl pawòl dous, pwofetize ilizyon.
11 Withdraw from the way, turn aside from the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
Sòti nan wout la, vire sou kote chemen an. Pa kite nou tande menm ankò afè a Sila Ki Sen an Israël la.”
12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and lean upon it:
Akoz sa, konsa pale Sila Ki Sen an Israël la: “Akoz nou te rejte pawòl sa a, e te mete konfyans nou nan opresyon ak desepsyon, e te depann de yo,
13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
akoz sa, inikite sa a va pou nou kon yon gwo brèch nan miray ki prèt pou tonbe a, yon gwo pati k ap souke nan yon miray ki wo, ki ka pete tonbe sibitman, nan yon enstan.
14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potter's vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a piece to take fire from the hearth, or to take water out of the pit.
Lè l vin kraze, l ap tankou po a mèt kanari a, ki tèlman kraze ak vyolans ke yon mòso cha p ap ka twouve pami mòso yo, ki ta ka menm pote dife sòti nan founo a, oswa kenbe dlo ki sòti nan sitèn nan.”
15 For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.
Paske konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a, sèl Sila Ki Sen an Israël la te di: “Nan repantans ak repo, nou va sove. Nan kalm ak konfyans, fòs nou ye.” Men nou pa t vle.
16 But ye said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
Nou te di: “Non, paske nou va sove ale sou cheval”. Akoz sa, nou va sove ale! “Nou va sove ale ak tout vitès”. Konsa, sila ki kouri dèyè ou va vini byen rapid.
17 One thousand [shall flee] at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye flee: till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on a hill.
Mil moun va sove ale menase pa yon sèl moun. Nou va sove ale sou menas a senk moun, jiskaske nou vin lage tankou yon drapo sou yon do mòn; tankou yon siyal k ap limen sou yon kolin.
18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious to you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD [is] a God of judgment: blessed [are] all they that wait for him.
Konsa, SENYÈ a ap tan. Li vle fè nou gras pou Li kapab egzalte, pou Li kapab fè nou mizerikòd. Paske SENYÈ a se yon Bondye de jistis. A la beni tout sila k ap tan Li yo beni!
19 For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious to thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.
Paske moun yo va rete nan Sion, nan Jérusalem. Nou p ap kriye ankò. Anverite Li va fè nou gras lè L tande vwa kriye nou. Lè L tande l, Li va reponn nou.
20 And [though] the LORD shall give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thy eyes shall see thy teachers:
Sepandan, Senyè a te bay nou pen advèsite, ak dlo lafliksyon, malgre, pwofesè nou yo, p ap kache tèt yo ankò, men zye nou va wè pwofesè nou yo.
21 And thy ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This [is] the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
Nenpòt lè ou vire adwat oswa agoch, zorèy nou va tande yon pawòl dèyè nou: “Sa se chemen an, mache ladann”.
22 Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a polluted cloth; thou shalt say to it, Be gone from me.
Nou va kraze jete limaj taye nou yo ki kouvri ak yon kouch ajàn, ak limaj an lò fon yo. Nou va gaye yo tankou bagay sal. Nou va di yo: “Retire ou la!”
23 Then shall he give the rain of thy seed, with which thou shalt sow the ground; and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shall be fat and plenteous: in that day shall thy cattle feed in large pastures.
Epi Li va bay lapli pou grenn semans ke ou simen nan tè a, ak pen ki soti nan rekòlt tè a. Li va bon e li va anpil. Nan jou sa a, bèt nou yo va manje nan yon patiraj byen laj.
24 The oxen likewise and the young asses that plow the ground shall eat clean provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
Anplis, bèf ak bourik ki travay latè yo va manje yon manje bon gou, ki te vannen ak pèl ak fouchèt.
25 And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers [and] streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Sou chak mòn ki wo ak chak kolin, va gen sous ki kouri ak dlo nan jou gwo masak la lè fò yo vin tonbe.
26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be seven-fold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.
Limyè lalin nan va tankou limyè solèy la, e limyè solèy la va sèt fwa pi klere tankou limyè ki pou sèt jou, nan jou ke SENYÈ a geri frakti a pèp Li a e panse blesi ki te frape yo.
27 Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning [with] his anger, and the burden [of it is] heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:
Gade byen, non a SENYÈ a sòti yon kote byen lwen. Lakòlè Li plen chalè ak lafimen k ap monte byen pwès. Lèv Li plen ak gwo kòlè e lang Li tankou yon dife k ap brile tout bagay.
28 And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and [there shall be] a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing [them] to err.
Souf Li tankou yon flèv k ap debòde, ki rive jis nan kou, pou souke nasyon yo. L ap fè yo ale retou nan yon paswa destriksyon. Yon brid ki mennen nan destriksyon an va plase nan bouch a pèp yo.
29 Ye shall have a song, as in the night, [when] a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come upon the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.
Konsa, nou va chante tankou nan lannwit la, tankou lè nou rete nan fèt ak kè kontan, tankou lè yon moun ap mache sou son a flit, pou ale nan mòn SENYÈ a, Wòch Israël la.
30 And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of [his] anger, and [with] the flame of a devouring fire, [with] scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.
SENYÈ a va fè yo tande vwa otorite Li, bra Li k ap desann ak gwo kòlè, nan flanm dife k ap brile tout bagay la, nan nwaj k ap pete ak gwo lapli ak lagrèl yo.
31 For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian be beaten down, [who] smote with a rod.
Paske ak vwa SENYÈ a, Assyrie va vin etone nèt. L ap vin frape ak baton.
32 And [in] every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, [it] shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of shaking will he fight with it.
Chak kout baton pinisyon ke SENYÈ a mete sou li, va fèt ak mizik a tanbouren ak gita. Li va fè batay ak yo. L ap rale tout zam yo parèt. Li va goumen kont yo.
33 For Tophet [is] ordained of old; yes, for the king it is prepared; he hath made [it] deep [and] large: the pile of it [is] fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
Paske plas pou brile a te prepare depi lontan. Anverite, li te prepare pou wa a. Li te fè l fon e laj, yon boukan ak anpil bwa. Se souf SENYÈ a, tankou yon tòran souf k ap limen dife sou li.
