< Isaiah 38 >
1 In tho daies Esechie was sijk `til to the deth; and Isaie, the profete, the sone of Amos, entride to hym, and seide to hym, The Lord seith these thingis, Dispose thi hous, for thou schalt die, and thou schalt not lyue.
Vè menm epòk sa a, Ezekyas tonbe malad, li te prèt pou l' mouri. Pwofèt Ezayi, pitit Amòz la, vin wè li, li di l' konsa: -Men sa Seyè a voye di ou: Ou mèt mete lòd nan zafè ou paske ou pral mouri. Pa gen rechap pou ou.
2 And Esechie turnede his face to the wal, and preiede the Lord, and seide, Lord, Y biseche;
Ezekyas vire figi li bay panno a fas, li lapriyè Seyè a.
3 haue thou mynde, Y biseche, hou Y yede bifore thee in treuthe, and in perfit herte, and Y dide that that was good bifore thin iyen. And Ezechye wept with greet wepyng.
Li di: -Tanpri, Seyè! Chonje jan mwen te sèvi ou ak tout kè mwen san m' pa janm vire do ba ou! Mwen te toujou fè sa ou te vle m' fè. Epi li pran kriye kont kriye l'.
4 And the word of the Lord was maad to Isaie, and seide,
Lè sa a, Seyè a pale ak Ezayi, li di l' konsa:
5 Go thou, and seie to Ezechye, The Lord God of Dauid, thi fadir, seith these thingis, I haue herd thi preier, and Y siy thi teeris. Lo! Y schal adde on thi daies fiftene yeer;
-Tounen al jwenn Ezekyas. W'a di l' pou mwen, men sa Seyè a, Bondye David, zansèt ou a, voye di ou: Mwen tande lapriyè ou. Mwen wè jan sa fè ou mal. M'ap kite ou viv kenzan ankò.
6 and Y schal delyuere thee and this citee fro the hond of the kyng of Assiriens, and Y schal defende it.
M'ap delivre ou ansanm ak lavil Jerizalèm anba men wa Lasiri a. M'a pran defans lavil la.
7 Forsothe this schal be to thee a signe of the Lord, that the Lord schal do this word, which he spak.
Ezayi reponn li: -Men siy Seyè a pral fè ou wè pou ou ka konnen l'ap kenbe pawòl li.
8 Lo! Y schal make the schadewe of lynes, bi which it yede doun in the orologie of Achas, in the sunne, to turne ayen backward bi ten lynes. And the sunne turnede ayen bi ten lynes, bi degrees bi whiche it hadde go doun.
Gade kadran solèy wa Akaz te fè a. Seyè a pral fè lonbraj la fè bak sou dis ti mak. Epi vre, lonbraj la mache fè bak sou dènye dis ti mak li te fin depase.
9 The scripture of Ezechie, kyng of Juda, whanne he hadde be sijk, and hadde rekyuered of his sikenesse.
Men kantik Ezekyas, wa a, te chante lè li refè apre maladi li a:
10 I seide, in the myddil of my daies Y schal go to the yatis of helle. Y souyte the residue of my yeeris; (Sheol )
Mwen t'ap di nan kè m' se mwatye nan lavi m' ase mwen viv. Gade mwen gen tan pral mouri. Mwen rive nan pòt pou m' antre kote mò yo ye a. M'ap mouri anvan lè m'. (Sheol )
11 Y seide, Y schal not se the Lord God in the lond of lyueris; Y schal no more biholde a man, and a dwellere of reste.
Mwen te kwè mwen pa t'ap janm gen chans ankò pou m' te wè Seyè a sou latè kote moun vivan yo ye a, ni pou m' te wè pesonn ankò nan moun k'ap viv sou latè.
12 My generacioun is takun awei, and is foldid togidere fro me, as the tabernacle of scheepherdis is foldid togidere. Mi lijf is kit doun as of a webbe; he kittide doun me, the while Y was wouun yit. Fro the morewtid `til to the euentid thou schalt ende me;
Tankou yon ti kay jaden, yo rache m', yo demoli m' pote m' ale. Yo koupe lavi m' tankou yo koupe fil nan metye moun k'ap tise twal yo. Soti nan maten rive aswè, m'ap deperi.
13 Y hopide til to the morewtid; as a lioun, so he al to-brak alle my boonys. Fro the morewtid til to the euentid thou schalt ende me; as the brid of a swalewe, so Y schal crie;
Tout lannwit m'ap rele anba doulè. Tankou yon lyon, Bondye t'ap kraze tout zo nan kò m'. Soti nan maten rive nan aswè, m'ap deperi.
14 Y schal bithenke as a culuer. Myn iyen biholdynge an hiy, ben maad feble. Lord, Y suffre violence, answere thou for me; what schal Y seie,
M'ap plenn tou piti tankou ranmye. M'ap plenyen tankou yon toutrèl. Je m' bouke tank m'ap gade syèl la. Seyè, mwen pa kapab ankò! Vin fè kichòy pou mwen non!
15 ether what schal answere to me, whanne `I mysilf haue do? Y schal bithenke to thee alle my yeeris, in the bitternisse of my soule.
Kijan pou m' pale avè l'? Sa pou m' di l'? Se Seyè a k'ap fè travay li. Malgre tout lapenn sa a ki nan kè m' lan, m'a debat ak lavi a jouk mwen mouri.
16 Lord, if me lyueth so, and the lijf of my spirit is in siche thingis, thou schalt chastise me, and schalt quykene me.
Seyè! nan bon kè ou, ou fè m' jwi lavi. Souf lavi a nan mwen toujou. W'ap geri m', w'ap ban m' lavi.
17 Lo! my bitternesse is moost bittir in pees; forsothe thou hast delyuered my soule, that it perischide not; thou hast caste awey bihynde thi bak alle my synnes.
Ou wete m' nan kè sere m' te ye a. Se ou menm ki wete m' nan bouch twou a. Ou voye tout peche m' yo jete dèyè do ou.
18 For not helle schal knowleche to thee, nethir deth schal herie thee; thei that goon doun in to the lake, schulen not abide thi treuthe. (Sheol )
Yo pa fè lwanj ou kote mò yo ye a. Non. Moun mouri pa ka fè fèt pou ou! Moun ki deja desann kote mò yo ye a pa ka konte sou ou pou ou kenbe pawòl ou. (Sheol )
19 A lyuynge man, a lyuynge man, he schal knouleche to thee, as and Y to dai; the fadir schal make knowun thi treuthe to sones.
Se moun ki vivan ase ki ka fè lwanj ou tankou mwen menm jòdi a. Granmoun va fè pitit yo konnen jan ou toujou kenbe pawòl!
20 Lord, make thou me saaf, and we schulen synge oure salmes in all the daies of oure lijf in the hous of the Lord.
Seyè a delivre m'! N'a fè mizik sou tout enstriman mizik nou yo n'a chante nan kay Seyè a pandan tout lavi nou.
21 And Ysaie comaundide, that thei schulden take a gobet of figus, and make a plaster on the wounde; and it schulde be heelid.
Ezayi mande pou yo fè yon kataplas ak fig frans mete sou kote wa a malad la, pou li ka geri.
22 And Ezechie seide, What signe schal be, that Y schal stie in to the hous of the Lord?
Lè sa a, wa Ezekyas mande: -Kisa k'ap fè m' konnen m'a ka al nan tanp lan ankò?
