Isaiah 17
1 The birthun of Damask. Lo! Damask schal faile to be a citee, and it schal be as an heep of stoonys in fallyng.
Men sa Bondye di k'ap rive lavil Damas: -Lavil Damas p'ap yon lavil ankò. L'ap tounen yon pil demoli.
2 The forsakun citees of Aroer schulen be to flockis; and tho schulen reste there, and noon schal be that schal make aferd.
Moun p'ap janm rete nan lavil peyi Siri yo ankò. Se la bèf, mouton ak kabrit pral jwenn zèb pou yo manje. Se la y'a rete san pesonn pa chase yo met deyò.
3 And help schal ceesse fro Effraym, and a rewme fro Damask; and the relifs of Sirie schulen be as the glorie of the sones of Israel, seith the Lord of oostis.
Peyi Efrayim lan pral rete san anyen pou pwoteje l'. Lavil Damas pral pèdi libète granmoun li. Ti rès moun peyi Siri a pral gen menm sò ak ti rès moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Yo pral pèdi bèl pouvwa yo. Se mwen menm, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki di sa.
4 And it schal be, in that dai the glorie of Jacob schal be maad thinne, and the fatnesse of his fleisch shal fade.
Seyè a di ankò: -Yon jou gen pou rive. Lè sa a, tout bèl pouvwa peyi Jakòb la pral disparèt. L'ap pèdi tout richès li, l'ap vin pòv.
5 And it schal be as gaderyng togidere that that is left in heruest, and his arm schal gadere eeris of corn, and it schal be as sekynge eeris of corn in the valei of Raphaym.
Peyi Izrayèl la ap tankou yon jaden diri mi yo fin koupe, yo ranmase pote ale. L'ap tankou jaden pitimi nan plenn Refayim lè yo fin ranmase grap ki tonbe atè apre rekòt la.
6 And there schal be left in it as a rasyn, and as the schakyng doun of the fruyt of olyue tre, as of tweyne ether of thre olyue trees in the hiynesse of a braunche, ether of foure ether of fyue; in the cooppis therof schal be the fruyt therof, seith the Lord God of Israel.
Se sèlman de twa moun k'ap rete vivan. Peyi Izrayèl la ap tankou yon pye oliv apre yo fin keyi tout donn li: se de twa grenn ki rete nan tèt la ak kat ou senk sou branch yo. Se mwen menm, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki di sa.
7 In that dai a man schal be bowid to his maker, and hise iyen schulen biholde to the hooli of Israel.
Jou sa a, moun va vire tèt yo bò Bondye ki te kreye yo a, y'a leve je yo gade Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
8 And he schal not be bowid to the auteris, whiche hise hondis maden, and whiche hise fyngris wrouyten; he schal not biholde wodis, and templis of idols.
Yo p'ap vire tèt yo bò lotèl zidòl yo te fè ak men yo. Yo p'ap leve je yo gade poto yo te mete kanpe pou Achera, zidòl fanm lan, ak lotèl kote y'ap boule lansan an.
9 In that dai the citees of strengthe therof schulen be forsakun as plowis, and cornes that weren forsakun of the face of the sones of Israel; and thou schalt be forsakun.
Lè jou sa a va rive, moun pral kouri kite tout lavil kote yo te konn al chache pwoteksyon yo. Se va tankou lè moun Ivi yo ak moun Amon yo te kouri kite tout lavil yo devan pèp Izrayèl la. Lavil yo pral tounen savann.
10 For thou hast foryete God, thi sauyour, and haddist not mynde on thi stronge helpere; therfor thou schalt plaunte a feithful plauntyng, and thou schalt sowe an alien seed.
Nou menm pèp Izrayèl, nou te bliye Bondye ki te delivre nou an. Nou pa t' chonje Bondye ki te pwoteje nou an. Se poutèt sa n'ap plante bèl ti jaden sou kote pou fè sèvis pou zidòl moun lòt nasyon yo.
11 In the dai of thi plauntyng schal be a wielde vyne, and erli thi seed schal floure; ripe corne is takun awei in the dai of eritage, and Israel schal make sorewe greuousli.
Menm si yo ta rive pouse menm jou nou plante yo a, pou menm jou a nan maten yo pran fleri, nou p'ap rekòlte. Paske menm jou a tou, y'ap deperi. Se va yon gwo lapenn ki p'ap janm fini.
12 Wo to the multitude of many puplis, as the multitude of the see sownynge, and the noise of cumpenyes as the sown of many watris.
Ki malè sa a? Yon foul moun k'ap toumante kò yo tankou lè lanmè a move. Y'ap bat kò yo fè gwo bri tankou lanm lanmè k'ap frape ak fòs sou rivaj la.
13 Puplis schulen sowne as the sown of flowynge watris, and God schal blame hym; and he schal fle fer, and he schal be rauyschid as the dust of hillis fro the face of the wynd, and as a whirlewynd bifor tempest.
Nasyon yo ap bat kò yo tankou lanmè lè li move. Men, Bondye rele dèyè yo, li fè yo kouri al byen lwen. Li bwote yo ale tankou van k'ap leve pousyè sou mòn yo, tankou van siklòn k'ap pote pay ale.
14 In the time of euentide, and lo! disturbling; in the morewtid, and he schal not abide. This is the part of hem that destrieden vs, and the part of hem that rauyschiden vs.
Nan aswè, y'ap bay moun kè sote. Anvan solèy leve, w'ap chache yo, ou p'ap jwenn yo. Men sa k'ap tann tout moun k'ap piye nou yo, moun k'ap pwofite sou nou yo.
