Isaiah 41
1 Iles, be stille to me, and folkis chaunge strengthe; neiye thei, and thanne speke thei; neiye we togidere to doom.
Nou menm moun zile yo, pe bouch nou! Koute sa m'ap di nou! Mete gason sou nou! Pwoche vin defann kòz nou! Annou plede pou n' wè kilès ki gen rezon!
2 Who reiside the iust man fro the eest, and clepide hym to sue hym silf? He schal yyue folkis in his siyt, and he schal welde kyngis; he schal yyue as dust to his swerd, and as stobil `that is rauyschid of the wynd, to his bowe.
Kilès ki te fè chèf la soti bò solèy leve, ki te fè l' genyen nan tout batay kote l' pase? Kilès ki te lage tout nasyon yo nan men l', ki soumèt tout wa yo devan l'? Avèk nepe li, li kraze yo fè yo tounen pousyè. Avèk flèch li yo, li fè yo kouri tankou pay van ap gaye.
3 He schal pursue hem, he schal go in pees; a path schal not appere in hise feet.
L'ap fann nan siyay yo, l'ap kouri san li pa pè anyen. Pye l' pa menm touche tè.
4 Who wrouyte and dide these thingis? clepynge generaciouns at the bigynnyng. Y am the Lord; and Y am the firste and the laste.
Se travay ki moun sa? Kilès ki lakòz tout bagay sa yo rive? Ki moun ki depi nan kòmansman ap rele lèzòm, pitit an pitit, pou yo fè travay li sou latè? Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki la anvan yo tout. Se mwen menm k'ap toujou la apre yo tout.
5 Ilis sien, and dredden; the laste partis of erthe were astonyed; thei camen niy, and neiyiden.
Moun zile yo wè sa, yo pè. Moun nan dènye bout latè pran tranble, yo pwoche, yo vini.
6 Ech man schal helpe his neiybore, and schal seie to his brother, Be thou coumfortid.
Yonn ap ede lòt. Yonn ap di lòt: Pran kouraj!
7 A smyth of metal smytynge with an hamer coumfortide him that polischyde, ethir made fair, in that tyme, seiynge, It is good, to glu; and he fastenede hym with nailis, that he schulde not be mouyd.
Bòs atizan k'ap fè estati a ap ankouraje òfèv la. Moun k'ap fin bay estati a fòm ak ti kout mato l' yo ap ankouraje bòs fòjon an. Yon lòt di: Soudi a bon! Yo kloure zidòl la nan plas li pou li pa tonbe.
8 And thou, Israel, my seruaunte, Jacob, whom Y chees, the seed of Abraham, my frend, in whom Y took thee;
Men, nou menm pèp Izrayèl, sèvitè m' yo! nou se pitit pitit Jakòb, moun mwen te chwazi a! Nou se moun ras Abraram, zanmi mwen an!
9 fro the laste partis of erthe, and fro the fer partis therof Y clepide thee; and Y seide to thee, Thou art my seruaunt; Y chees thee, and castide not awei thee.
Mwen pran nou nan dènye bout latè, mwen rele nou soti byen lwen. Mwen di nou: Se sèvitè m' nou ye! Se chwazi mwen te chwazi nou, mwen pa voye nou jete.
10 Drede thou not, for Y am with thee; boowe thou not awei, for Y am thi God. Y coumfortide thee, and helpide thee; and the riythond of my iust man vp took thee.
Nou pa bezwen pè. Mwen la avèk nou! Nou pa bezwen kite anyen ban nou kè sote. Se mwen menm ki Bondye nou. M'ap ban nou fòs, m'ap ede nou. M'ap soutni nou ak fòs ponyèt mwen ki pa janm pèdi batay.
11 Lo! alle men schulen be schent, and schulen be aschamed, that fiyten ayens thee; thei schulen be as if thei ben not, and men schulen perische, that ayen seien thee.
Tout moun ki te fache sou nou yo pral wont, yo pral bese tèt yo. Moun ki t'ap chache nou kont yo pral disparèt, yo pral mouri.
12 Thou schalt seke hem, and thou schalt not fynde thi rebel men; thei schulen be, as if thei ben not, and as the wastyng of a man fiytynge ayens thee.
Moun ki t'ap fè nou lagè yo, n'a chache yo, nou p'ap wè yo. Moun ki t'ap goumen ak nou yo pral disparèt, yo p'ap la ankò!
13 For Y am thi Lord God, takynge thin hond, and seiynge to thee, Drede thou not, Y helpide thee.
Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki Bondye nou! M'ap pran men nou, m'ap di nou: Nou pa bezwen pè. M'ap ede nou!
14 Nyle thou, worm of Jacob, drede, ye that ben deed of Israel. Y helpide thee, seith the Lord, and thin ayen biere, the hooli of Israel.
Nou menm fanmi Jakòb yo, moun Izrayèl yo, nou te mèt piti tankou yon vètè, fèb tankou yon cheni, nou pa bezwen pè. Se mwen menm k'ap ede nou, mwen menm, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ki yon Bondye apa. Se mwen menm k'ap delivre nou. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa!
15 Y haue set thee as a newe wayn threischynge, hauynge sawynge bilis; thou schalt threische mounteyns, and schalt make smal, and thou schalt sette litle hillis as dust.
M'ap fè nou tounen yon machin pou raboure tè, yon machin tou nèf avèk dan byen file. Nou pral raboure mòn yo, nou pral kraze yo. Nou pral fè ti bit mòn yo tounen pousyè.
16 Thou schalt wyndewe hem, and the wynd schal take hem awei, and a whirlewynd schal scatere hem; and thou schalt make ful out ioie in the Lord, and thou schalt be glad in the hooli of Israel.
Nou pral vannen yo, van ap bwote yo ale. Van tanpèt ap gaye yo toupatou. Men, nou pral fè fèt pou Seyè a. Nou pral kontan Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki yon Bondye apa.
17 Nedi men and pore seken watris, and tho ben not; the tunge of hem driede for thirst. Y the Lord schal here hem, I God of Israel schal not forsake hem.
Lè malere yo ak pòv yo ap chache dlo pou yo bwè epi yo pa ka jwenn, lè gòj yo va chèch nèt sitèlman y'a swaf dlo, mwen menm, Seyè a, m'a ba yo sa yo lapriyè mande m' lan. Mwen menm, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, mwen p'ap lage yo.
18 Y schal opene floodis in hiy hillis, and wellis in the myddis of feeldis; Y schal sette the desert in to poondis of watris, and the lond without weie in to ryuers of watris.
M'a fè gwo dlo larivyè koule sou tout tè sèk kote ki pa t' gen menm yon ti pyebwa. M'a fè sous dlo pete nan fon yo. M'ap fè dezè a tounen lagon dlo. Sous dlo pral pete nan tout tè sèk yo.
19 Y schal yyue in wildirnesse a cedre, and a thorn, and a myrte tre, and the tre of an olyue; Y schal sette in the desert a fir tre, an elm, and a box tre togidere.
M'ap fè pye zakasya ak pye sèd pouse nan tout dezè a, ansanm ak pye jasmen ak pye oliv mawon. Nan tè savann lan, m'ap mete pye pichpen, pye bwadòm ak pye sèd.
20 That thei se, and knowe, and bithenke, and vndurstonde togidere; that the hond of the Lord dide this thing, and the hooli of Israel made that of nouyt.
Lè moun va wè sa, y'a konnen pou yo pran tèt yo, pou yo manyè konprann se Seyè a ki fè bagay sa yo ak men l', se travay Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, Bondye ki apa a.
21 Make ye niy youre doom, seith the Lord; brynge ye, if in hap ye han ony thing, seith the kyng of Jacob.
Seyè a, wa pèp Izrayèl la, di: -Nou menm, bondye lòt nasyon yo, vin plede kòz nou! Vin di sa nou gen pou n' di pou defans nou!
22 Neiy tho, and telle to vs, what euer thingis schulen come; telle ye the formere thingis that weren, and we schulen sette oure herte, and schulen wite; schewe ye to vs the laste thingis of hem, and tho thingis that schulen come.
Pwoche non! Vin di sa ki gen pou rive! Kisa nou te di k'ap rive ki rive vre? Di nou ki jan sa pral pase pou n' ka pran prekosyon nou! Fè nou konnen sa ki gen pou rive pou n' ka rekonèt sa lè l'a rive vre!
23 Telle ye what thingis schulen come in tyme to comynge, and we schulen wite, that ye ben goddis; al so do ye wel, ethir yuele, if ye moun; and speke we, and see we togidere.
Di nou kisa ki gen pou rive pita. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se bondye nou ye vre! Fè kichòy non, li te mèt bon, li te mèt pa bon, pou n' ka wè l', pou nou ka egzaminen l' ansanm!
24 Lo! ye ben of nouyt, and youre werk is of that that is not; he that chees you, is abhomynacioun.
Men, gade! Se pa anyen nou ye! Tou sa n'ap fè yo pa vo anyen menm! Se yon avilisman pou moun ki pran nou pou bondye yo!
25 I reiside fro the north, and he schal come fro the risyng of the sunne; he schal clepe my name. And he schal brynge magistratis as cley, and as a pottere defoulynge erthe.
Se mwen menm ki chwazi yon nonm soti bò solèy leve. Se mwen menm ki fè l' desann soti nan nò vin atake. Li kraze tout chèf yo tankou labou anba pye l', menm jan moun k'ap fè krich kraze tè pou l' travay.
26 Who tolde fro the bigynnyng, that we wite, and fro the bigynnyng, that we seie, Thou art iust? noon is tellynge, nether biforseiynge, nether herynge youre wordis.
Anvan sa te rive, kilès nan nou ki te di sa pou n' te ka konnen? Ki moun ki te di davans sa tapral rive konsa, pou n' te ka di se vre? Non. Pesonn pa t' di anyen sou sa. Pyès moun pa janm tande nou di yon mo sou sa.
27 The firste schal seie to Sion, Lo! Y am present; and Y schal yyue a gospellere to Jerusalem.
Se mwen menm premye moun ki bay moun Siyon yo nouvèl men l'ap vini! Se mwen menm ki voye yon moun al pote bon nouvèl la bay lavil Jerizalèm.
28 And Y siy, and noon was of these, that token councel, and he that was axid, answeride a word.
Lè mwen gade nan tout bondye nou yo, mwen pa wè yonn ki te gen anyen pou l' te di. Pa t' gen yonn ki ta kapab reponn mwen si m' ta mande l' anyen.
29 Lo! alle men ben vniust, and her werkis ben wynd and veyn; the symylacris of hem ben wynd, and voide thing.
Tout bondye sa yo pa vo anyen. Yo pa kapab fè anyen menm. Estati zidòl yo, se van. Yo pa vo anyen.
