Revelation 9
1 The fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from the sky which had fallen to the earth. The key to the pit of the abyss was given to him. (Abyssos g12)
Answit, senkyèm zanj lan te sone, e mwen te wè yon zetwal nan syèl la ki te tonbe sou tè a. Epi kle a fòs labim nan te bay a li menm. (Abyssos g12)
2 He opened the pit of the abyss, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke from a burning furnace. The sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the pit. (Abyssos g12)
Li te ouvri labim nan, e lafimen te sòti nan fòs la tankou lafimen a yon gwo founo. Solèy la avèk lè a te vin tounwa akoz lafimen ki sòti nan labim nan. (Abyssos g12)
3 Then out of the smoke came locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
Answit, krikèt te sòti nan lafimen an pou vini sou latè, epi yo te resevwa pouvwa, jan eskòpyon sou latè yo gen pouvwa a.
4 They were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those people who don’t have God’s seal on their foreheads.
Yo te di yo pou yo pa fè zèb latè yo mal, ni okenn bagay vèt, ni okenn pyebwa, men sèlman moun ki pa gen so Bondye a parèt sou fon yo.
5 They were given power, not to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a person.
Konsa, yo pa t pèmèt yo touye pèsòn, men toumante yo pandan senk mwa. Epi toumant yo te tankou toumant a yon eskòpyon lè l pike yon moun.
6 In those days people will seek death, and will in no way find it. They will desire to die, and death will flee from them.
Nan jou sa yo, moun va cheche lanmò, e yo p ap twouve l. Yo va anvi mouri e lanmò va sove ale kite yo.
7 The shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for war. On their heads were something like golden crowns, and their faces were like people’s faces.
Aparans a krikèt yo te tankou cheval ki prepare pou batay. Sou tèt yo te gen bagay tankou kouwòn an lò, e figi yo te tankou figi a moun.
8 They had hair like women’s hair, and their teeth were like those of lions.
Yo te gen cheve ki te tankou cheve a fanm, e dan yo te tankou dan lyon.
9 They had breastplates like breastplates of iron. The sound of their wings was like the sound of many chariots and horses rushing to war.
Yo te gen pwotèj lestonmak tankou pwotèj an fè, e bri a zèl yo te tankou bri cha a anpil cheval k ap kouri nan batay.
10 They have tails like those of scorpions, with stingers. In their tails they have power to harm men for five months.
Yo gen ke tankou eskòpyon, ak pikan. Epi nan ke yo, te gen pouvwa pou fè moun mal pandan senk mwa.
11 They have over them as king the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is “Abaddon”, but in Greek, he has the name “Apollyon”. (Abyssos g12)
Yo gen kòm wa sou yo, zanj labim nan. Non li an Ebre se Abaddon, e an Grèk, li rele Apollon. (Abyssos g12)
12 The first woe is past. Behold, there are still two woes coming after this.
Premye malè a te gen tan fin pase. Gade byen, de malè ap toujou vini apre bagay sa yo.
13 The sixth angel sounded. I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which is before God,
Answit, sizyèm zanj lan te sone. Mwen te tande yon vwa ki sòti nan kat kòn lotèl an lò ki devan Bondye a.
14 saying to the sixth angel who had the shofar, “Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates!”
Youn t ap di a sizyèm zanj ki te gen twonpèt la: “Lage kat zanj ki mare bò kote gwo Larivyè Euphrate la.”
15 The four angels were freed who had been prepared for that hour and day and month and year, so that they might kill one third of mankind.
Epi kat zanj yo, ki te prepare ojis pou lè a, mwa a, jou ak lane a, te lage pou yo ta kapab touye yon tyè nan limanite.
16 The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million. I heard the number of them.
Kantite lame ki te sou cheval yo te de-san-milyon. Mwen te tande kantite yo a.
17 Thus I saw the horses in the vision and those who sat on them, having breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulphur yellow; and the horses’ heads resembled lions’ heads. Out of their mouths proceed fire, smoke, and sulphur.
Konsa, mwen te wè nan vizyon an, cheval ak sila ki te chita sou yo a. Chevalye yo te gen pwotèj lestomak menm koulè ak dife, jasent, ak souf, e tèt cheval yo tankou tèt lyon. E se dife, lafimen ak souf ki t ap sòti nan bouch yo.
18 By these three plagues, one third of mankind was killed: by the fire, the smoke, and the sulphur, which proceeded out of their mouths.
Yon tyè limanite te vin touye pa twa fleyo sa yo; pa dife, lafimen, ak souf ki t ap sòti nan bouch yo a.
19 For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails are like serpents, and have heads; and with them they harm.
Paske pouvwa a cheval yo se nan bouch yo ak nan ke yo. Paske ke yo tankou sèpan e yo gen tèt; e avèk yo, yo fè mal yo.
20 The rest of mankind, who were not killed with these plagues, didn’t repent of the works of their hands, that they wouldn’t worship demons, and the idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone, and of wood, which can’t see, hear, or walk.
Rès limanite a ki pa t touye pa fleyo sa yo, pa t repanti de zèv a men yo, pou yo pa adore demon, ak zidòl an lò, an ajan, an bwonz, an wòch, ak bwa, ki pa kapab ni wè, ni tande, ni mache yo.
21 They didn’t repent of their murders, their sorceries, their sexual immorality, or their thefts.
Ni yo pa t repanti nan asasine moun, ni nan fè wanga, ni imoralite, ni vòl yo te fè yo.
