Revelation 13
1 And he took up a position upon the sands of the sea-shore. Then I saw a Wild Beast coming up out of the sea, and he had ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten kingly crowns, and inscribed on his heads were names full of blasphemy.
Apre sa, mwen wè yon bèt ki t'ap soti nan lanmè a, li te gen dis kòn ak sèt tèt. Li te gen yon kouwòn sou chak kòn. Li te gen make sou chak tèt li yo yon non ki te yon gwo jouman pou Bondye.
2 The Wild Beast which I saw resembled a leopard, and had feet like the feet of a bear, and his mouth was like the mouth of a lion; and it was to the Dragon that he owed his power and his throne and his wide dominion.
Bèt mwen te wè a te sanble ak yon gwo chat tou jòn ak tach nwa sou tout kò li. pa t' li yo te plat tankou pa t' yon lous, bouch li te tankou bouch lyon. Dragon an ba li pouvwa li, li ba li plas chèf li te genyen an ansanm ak gwo pouvwa li t'ap egzèse a.
3 I saw that one of his heads seemed to have been mortally wounded; but his mortal wound was healed, and the whole world was amazed and followed him.
Yonn nan sèt tèt yo te resevwa yon blese ki te manke touye li. Men, blese a te geri. Tout moun te sezi wè sa, yo pran swiv bèt la.
4 And they offered worship to the Dragon, because it was to him that the Wild Beast owed his dominion; and they also offered worship to the Wild Beast, and said, "Who is there like him? And who is able to engage in battle with him?"
Tout moun pran adore dragon an paske li te bay bèt la pouvwa li. Yo adore bèt la tou, yo t'ap di: Kilès ki tankou bèt la? Kilès ki ka goumen avè li?
5 And there was given him a mouth full of boastful and blasphemous words; and liberty of action was granted him for forty-two months.
Bèt la te resevwa pouvwa pou l' te di tout kalite pawòl awogan pou joure Bondye. Yo ba l' pouvwa fè sa l' vle pandan karannde mwa.
6 And he opened his mouth to utter blasphemies against God, to speak evil of His name and of His dwelling-place--that is to say, of those who dwell in Heaven.
Bèt la pran pale Bondye mal, li pase non Bondye nan betiz ansanm ak kote Bondye rete a, ak tout moun ki rete nan sièl la.
7 And permission was given him to make war upon God's people and conquer them; and power was given him over every tribe, people, language and nation.
Yo ba l' pouvwa pou l' fè lagè ak tout moun k'ap sèvi Bondye yo, jouk pou l' te genyen batay la. Yo ba l' pouvwa sou moun tout ras, tout peyi, tout lang ak tout nasyon.
8 And all the inhabitants of the earth will be found to be worshipping him: every one whose name is not recorded in the Book of Life--the Book of the Lamb who has been offered in sacrifice ever since the creation of the world.
Tout moun sou latè pral adore l', sa vle di tout moun ki pa t' gen non yo ekri nan liv ki gen non moun ki gen lavi a depi lè Bondye t'ap kreye tout bagay la, liv ki pou ti Mouton yo te touye a.
9 Let all who have ears give heed.
Koute byen wi, si nou gen zòrèy pou tande!
10 If any one is eager to lead others into captivity, he must himself go into captivity. If any one is bent on killing with the sword, he must himself be killed by the sword. Here is an opportunity for endurance, and for the exercise of faith, on the part of God's people.
Moun ki la pou al nan prizon pral nan prizon. Moun ki la pou mouri anba kout nepe pral mouri anba kout nepe. Se poutèt sa, se pou moun Bondye yo gen anpil pasians ak konfians nan Bondye.
11 Then I saw another Wild Beast, coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like those of a lamb, but he spoke like a dragon.
Apre sa, mwen wè yon lòt bèt ki soti anba tè a. Li te gen de kòn tankou kòn mouton, li t'ap pale tankou yon dragon.
12 And the authority of the first Wild Beast--the whole of that authority--he exercises in his presence, and he causes the earth and its inhabitants to worship the first Wild Beast, whose mortal wound had been healed.
Li pran tout pouvwa premie bèt la pou l' te kòmande devan je li. Li fòse latè ak tout moun ki sou latè pou yo adore premie bèt ki te blese amò men ki te geri a.
13 He also works great miracles, so as even to make fire come down from Heaven to earth in the presence of human beings.
Dezyèm bèt la t'ap fè anpil gwo mirak, li fè dife soti nan sièl la desann sou latè devan tout moun.
14 And his power of leading astray the inhabitants of the earth is due to the marvels which he has been permitted to work in the presence of the Wild Beast. And he told the inhabitants of the earth to erect a statue to the Wild Beast who had received the sword-stroke and yet had recovered.
Moun ki rete sou latè yo te pèdi tèt yo lè yo wè mirak yo te ba l' dwa fè devan je premie bèt la. Li mande yo pou yo fè yon estati bèt ki te blese amò ak kout nepe a men ki te byen vivan an.
15 And power was granted him to give breath to the statue of the Wild Beast, so that the statue of the Wild Beast could even speak and cause all who refuse to worship it to be put to death.
Dezyèm bèt la resevwa pouvwa pou l' te fè estati premie bèt la tounen vivan. Konsa, estati a ka pale, li ka touye moun ki pa adore li.
16 And he causes all, small and great, rich and poor, free men and slaves, to have stamped upon them a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,
Bèt la te egzije pou tout moun, piti kou gran, rich kou pòv, esklav kou lib, pou yo te resevwa yon mak sou men dwat yo osinon sou fwon yo.
17 in order that no one should be allowed to buy or sell unless he had the mark--either the name of the Wild Beast or the number which his name represents.
Pesonn pa t' kapab ni achte ni vann anyen si li pa t' gen mak sa a, sa vle di si l' pa t' gen non bèt la osinon nimewo ki koresponn ak non l' lan.
18 Here is scope for ingenuity. Let people of shrewd intelligence calculate the number of the Wild Beast; for it indicates a certain man, and his number is 666.
Bagay sa a mande anpil bon konprann. Moun ki gen konprann ka resoud pwoblèm nimewo bèt la. Nimewo sa a se non yon moun li ye. Men nimewo a: sisanswasannsis (666).
