< Isaiah 41 >
1 Iles, be stille to me, and folkis chaunge strengthe; neiye thei, and thanne speke thei; neiye we togidere to doom.
“Peyi kot lanmè yo, koute Mwen an silans e kite pèp yo renouvele fòs yo. Kite yo vin parèt pa devan, konsa, kite yo pale. Annou reyini ansanm pou fè jijman.
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 leve yon k ap soti nan lès? Kilès ki te rele li vin kanpe a pye nan ladwati la? Li livre nasyon yo devan li e Li fè wa yo soumèt; li fè yo tankou pousyè ak nepe li, tankou pay k ap chase pa van devan banza li.
3 He schal pursue hem, he schal go in pees; a path schal not appere in hise feet.
Li kouri dèyè yo, e Li pase san danje, menm nan yon chemen kote li pa t konn pase ak pye li.
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 kilès ki te fè sa a e ki te acheve li; ki te rele fè parèt tout jenerasyon yo soti nan kòmansman? Mwen, SENYÈ a, se premye a ak dènye a. Mwen se Li.”
5 Ilis sien, and dredden; the laste partis of erthe were astonyed; thei camen niy, and neiyiden.
Peyi kot yo te wè e yo gen lakrent; dènye pwent latè yo tranble. Yo rapwoche; yo rive.
6 Ech man schal helpe his neiybore, and schal seie to his brother, Be thou coumfortid.
Chak moun ap ede vwazen li. Yo di a frè yo: “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.
Konsa, bòs atizan an ankouraje bòs fonn metal la. Sila ki fè metal vin poli ak mato a ankouraje sila k ap bat fè a. Li di a sila k ap soude a: “Li bon”. Li kloure li ak klou pou l rete nan plas li.
8 And thou, Israel, my seruaunte, Jacob, whom Y chees, the seed of Abraham, my frend, in whom Y took thee;
Men ou menm, O Israël, sèvitè Mwen an, Jacob ke M te chwazi a, desandan Abraham nan, zami 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.
ou menm, ke M te pran soti nan tout ekstremite latè yo, e te rele soti nan kote pi izole yo pou te di ou: ‘Ou se sèvitè Mwen. Mwen te chwazi ou e Mwen pa t rejte ou.’
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.
Pa pè, paske Mwen avèk ou. Pa gade toupatou ak kè twouble, paske Mwen se Bondye ou. Mwen va fòtifye ou. Anverite Mwen va bay ou sekou. Anverite Mwen va bay ou soutyen ak men ladwati, men dwat Mwen.
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.
Gade byen, tout sila ki fache ak ou yo va vin wont e dezonore. Sila k ap pran pòz kont ou yo va vin konsi se pa anyen e yo va peri.
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.
Ou va chache sila k ap fè pwoblèm ak ou yo, men ou p ap jwenn yo. Sila ki fè lagè ak ou yo va vin konsi se pa anyen e yo p ap egziste ankò.
13 For Y am thi Lord God, takynge thin hond, and seiynge to thee, Drede thou not, Y helpide thee.
Paske Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, ki soutni men dwat Ou, ki di ou, pa pè, Mwen va ba ou sekou.
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.
“Pinga ou pè, ou menm, vètè Jacob la, nou menm mesye Israël yo. Mwen va ede nou”, deklare SENYÈ a. “Redanmtè ou a se Sila Ki Sen an Israël la.
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.
Gade byen, Mwen te fè ou vin yon zouti tounèf, byen file tou de bò, pou kraze vannen rekòlt la. Ou va vannen mòn yo, kraze yo fen, e fè kolin yo vin tankou pay.
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.
Ou va vannen yo; van a va pote yo ale e tanpèt va gaye yo. Men ou va rejwi nan SENYÈ a; ou va fè lwanj Sila Ki Sen an Israël la.
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.
Aflije yo ak malere yo ap chache dlo, men nanpwen; lang yo sèch ak swaf la. Mwen menm, SENYÈ a, va reponn yo. Mwen, Bondye Israël la p ap abandone 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.
Mwen va ouvri rivyè yo sou wotè ki vid yo ak sous nan mitan vale yo. Mwen va fè dezè a vin yon letan dlo, e tè sèch la yon fontèn dlo.
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.
Mwen va plase pye sèd nan dezè a, pye akasya, ak pye jasmen ak pye doliv. Mwen va mete pye pichpen nan dezè a ansanm ak pye bwadòm;
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.
pou yo ka wè, vin rekonèt, reflechi e ranmase bon konprann ansanm, ke men SENYÈ a te fè sa, ke Sila Ki Sen an Israël te kreye li a.
21 Make ye niy youre doom, seith the Lord; brynge ye, if in hap ye han ony thing, seith the kyng of Jacob.
“Prezante ka nou yo”, pale SENYÈ a. “Pote gwo diskou nou yo”, pale Wa a Jacob la.
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.
Mennen fè yo vin parèt e deklare a nou menm sa ki va rive! Epi pou evenman lontan yo, deklare kisa yo te ye, pou nou ka konsidere yo, e konnen kijan y ap sòti. Oswa, anonse a nou menm sa k ap vini an.
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.
Deklare bagay ki va vin rive apre yo, pou nou ka konnen ke se dye nou ye. Anverite, fè byen, oswa fè mal, pou nou ka gade toupatou ansanm ak kè twouble.
24 Lo! ye ben of nouyt, and youre werk is of that that is not; he that chees you, is abhomynacioun.
Gade byen, nou pou ryen e zèv nou yo pa pou anyen. Sila ki pito nou an se yon abominnasyon.
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.
Mwen te fè leve yon moun soti nan nò e li vin parèt; depi nan solèy leve a, li va rele non Mwen; li va vini sou chèf yo, kon sou mòtye, tankou bòs kanari mache sou ajil.
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.
Se kilès ki te deklare sa depi nan kòmansman an, pou nou ta ka konnen? Oswa depi tan ansyen yo, pou nou ta kapab di: “Li se vrè”? San dout, pa t gen moun ki te deklare sa; san dout, pa t gen moun ki te pwoklame sa; san dout, pa t gen moun ki te tande pawòl sila yo.
27 The firste schal seie to Sion, Lo! Y am present; and Y schal yyue a gospellere to Jerusalem.
Mwen se premye pou di a Sion: ‘Men vwala, men yo la;’ epi a Jérusalem: ‘Mwen va voye yon mesaje bòn nouvèl’.
28 And Y siy, and noon was of these, that token councel, and he that was axid, answeride a word.
Men lè M gade, nanpwen pèsòn e pa gen konseye pami yo, ki, si M te mande, ta kapab bay yon repons.
29 Lo! alle men ben vniust, and her werkis ben wynd and veyn; the symylacris of hem ben wynd, and voide thing.
Gade byen, yo tout fo. Zèv yo san valè. Imaj fonn yo se van ak konfizyon.
