Isaiah 49
1 Ilis, here ye, and puplis afer, perseyue ye; the Lord clepide me fro the wombe, he thouyte on my name fro the wombe of my modir.
Koute Mwen, O lil yo e tande byen, pèp ki sòti lwen yo. SENYÈ a te rele Mwen depi nan vant; depi nan vant manman M, Li te rele M.
2 And he hath set my mouth as a scharp swerd, he defendide me in the schadewe of his hond, and settide me as a chosun arowe; he hidde me in his arowe caas,
Li te fè bouch Mwen tankou yon nepe file; nan lonbraj men L, Li te kache Mwen. Anplis, Li te fè M vin yon flèch byen poli, e Li te kache Mwen nan fouwo Li.
3 and seide to me, Israel, thou art my seruaunt, for Y schal haue glorie in thee.
Li te di Mwen: “Ou se sèvitè Mwen, Israël nan sila Mwen va montre glwa Mwen an.”
4 And Y seide, Y trauelide in veyn, Y wastide my strengthe with out cause, and veynli; therfor my doom is with the Lord, and my werk is with my God.
Men Mwen te di: “Mwen te travay di an ven. Mwen te depanse fòs Mwen pou ryen ak vanite; sepandan, anverite, jistis pa m avèk SENYÈ a, e rekonpans Mwen avèk Bondye Mwen an.”
5 And now the Lord, formynge me a seruaunt to hym silf fro the wombe, seith these thingis, that Y brynge ayen Jacob to hym. And Israel schal not be gaderid togidere; and Y am glorified in the iyen of the Lord, and my God is maad my strengthe.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ki te fòme m depi nan vant pou m ta Sèvitè Li a: Li di pou mennen Jacob retounen kote Li a, pou Israël ta ranmase vè Li (paske mwen te resevwa lonè nan zye SENYÈ a e Bondye Mwen an se fòs Mwen),
6 And he seyde, It is litil, that thou be a seruaunt to me, to reise the lynages of Jacob, and to conuerte the drastis of Israel; Y yaf thee in to the liyt of hethene men, that thou be myn helthe `til to the laste part of erthe.
Li di: “Se yon bagay twò piti pou ou ta Sèvitè Mwen, pou leve fè monte tout tribi Jacob yo, e restore retay Israël la. Konsa anplis, Mwen va fè Ou yon limyè a nasyon yo, pou sali Mwen ka rive jis nan dènye pwent latè.”
7 The Lord, ayenbiere of Israel, the hooli therof, seith these thingis to a dispisable soule, and to a folk had in abhomynacioun, to the seruaunt of lordis, Kyngis schulen se, and princes schulen rise togidere, and schulen worschipe, for the Lord, for he is feithful, and for the hooli of Israel, that chees thee.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Redanmtè Israël la ak Sila Ki Sen li an, a Sila ke lòm meprize a, a Sila ki rayi pa nasyon an, a Sèvitè a chèf yo: “Wa yo va wè e vin leve, Prens yo, anplis, va vin pwostène, akoz SENYÈ a, Sila ki fidèl la, Sila Ki Sen an Israël ki te chwazi Ou a.”
8 The Lord seith these thingis, In a plesaunt tyme Y herde thee, and in the dai of helthe Y helpide thee; and Y kepte thee, and yaf thee in to a bonde of pees of the puple, that thou schuldist reise the erthe, and haue in possessioun eritagis, `that ben distried;
Konsa pale SENYÈ a, se nan yon tan konvenab, ke M te reponn Ou. Nan jou sali a, Mwen te bay Ou sekou. Mwen va kenbe Ou e bay Ou kon yon akò pou pèp la, pou restore peyi a, e pou fè yo posede eritaj dezole yo.
9 that thou schuldist seie to hem that ben boundun, Go ye out, and to hem that ben in derknessis, Be ye schewid. Thei schulen be fed on weies, and the lesewis of hem schulen be in alle pleyn thingis.
Pou pale a kaptif yo: ‘Vin parèt’! Epi a sila nan tenèb yo: ‘Montre tèt ou’. Akote chemen yo, yo va manje e patiraj yo va sou tout wotè vid yo.
10 Thei schulen not hungre, and thei schulen no more thirste, and heete, and the sunne schal not smyte hem; for the merciful doere of hem schal gouerne hem, and schal yyue drynk to hem at the wellis of watris.
Yo p ap grangou, ni soufri swaf, ni solèy ki brile p ap frape yo; Paske Sila ki gen konpasyon pou yo a va mennen yo e va gide yo rive nan sous dlo yo.
11 And Y schal sette alle myn hillis in to weie, and my pathis schulen be enhaunsid.
Mwen va fè tout mòn Mwen yo vin yon chemen, e gran chemen Mwen yo va vin leve wo.
12 Lo! these men schulen come fro fer, and lo! thei schulen come fro the north, and see, and these fro the south lond.
Gade byen, sa yo va vini sòti lwen; epi gade, sila yo va soti nan nò ak nan lwès la, e sila yo va soti nan peyi Sinim yo.
13 Heuenes, herie ye, and, thou erthe, make ful out ioie; hillis, synge ye hertli heriyng; for the Lord coumfortide his puple, and schal haue merci on hise pore men.
Rele fò ak jwa, O syèl yo! Rejwi, O latè! Eklate ak gwo kri lajwa, O mòn yo! Paske SENYÈ a te konsole pèp Li a. Li va gen konpasyon pou aflije Li yo.
14 And Syon seide, The Lord hath forsake me, and the Lord hath foryete me.
Men Sion te di: “SENYÈ a te abandone mwen, e Senyè a te bliye mwen.”
15 Whether a womman may foryete hir yonge child, that sche haue not merci on the sone of hir wombe? thouy sche foryetith, netheles Y schal not foryete thee.
Èske yon fanm ka bliye pitit k ap souse li a, pou l pa gen konpasyon sou fis ki sòti nan vant li an? Menm sila yo ka bliye, men Mwen p ap bliye ou.
16 Lo! Y haue write thee in myn hondis; thi wallis ben euer bifore myn iyen.
Gade byen, Mwen te enskri ou nan pla men Mwen. Miray ou yo devan Mwen tout tan.
17 The bilderis ben comun; thei that distrien thee, and scateren, schulen go awei fro thee.
Fè pitit ou yo, fè vit. Sila k ap detwi yo e k ap devaste yo va kite ou.
18 Reise thin iyen in cumpas, and se; alle these men ben gaderid togidere, thei ben comun to thee. Y lyue, seith the Lord, for thou schalt be clothid with alle these as with an ournement, and thou as a spousesse schalt bynde hem to thee.
“Leve zye ou e gade toupatou; yo tout rasanble ansanm pou yo vin kote ou. Kon Mwen viv la,” deklare SENYÈ a: “Ou va, anverite abiye ak yo tout, pou yo sèvi kon bijou ou, e tache yo sou ou kon yon jenn fi k ap marye.”
19 For whi thi desertis, and thi wildirnessis, and the lond of thi fallyng now schulen be streit for enhabiteris; and thei schulen be dryuun awei fer, that swolewiden thee.
Nan plas dezè e dezole ou yo, nan peyi detwi nèt ou a, anverite, koulye a, ou va manke kont espas pou sila ki vivan yo, e sila ki te vale ou yo va ale byen lwen.
20 Yit the sones of thi bareynesse schulen seie in thin eeris, The place is streit to me, make thou a space to me for to dwelle.
Pitit ke ou te pèdi yo va gen tan di nan zòrèy ou: “Plas sa a twò piti pou mwen; fè espas pou mwen pou m ka viv isit la.”
21 And thou schalt seie in thin herte, Who gendride these sones to me? Y am bareyn, not berynge child; Y am led ouer, and prisoner; and who nurschide these sones? Y am destitute, and aloone; and where weren these?
Epi ou va di nan kè ou: ‘Se kilès ki te fè sila yo pou mwen, paske mwen te pèdi pitit mwen yo, e mwen rete sèl, yon egzile e yon vwayajè? Konsa, se kilès ki te leve sila yo? Gade byen, mwen te kite sèl. Ki kote sila yo te sòti?’”
22 The Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y reise myn hond to hethene men, and Y schal enhaunce my signe to puplis; and thei schulen brynge thi sones in armes, and thei schulen bere thi douytris on shuldris.
Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen va leve men M vè nasyon yo e Mwen va monte drapo Mwen a lòt pèp yo. Yo va mennen fis ou yo nan sen yo, e fi nou yo va pote sou zepòl yo.
23 And kingis shulen be thi nurseris, and quenys shulen be thi nursis; with cheer cast doun in to erthe thei schulen worschipe thee, and thei schulen licke the dust of thi feet; and thou schalt wite, that Y am the Lord, on whom thei schulen not be schent, that abiden hym.
Wa yo va sèvi kon papa adoptif nou yo, e fi yo kon manman nouris. Yo va bese ba devan ou ak figi yo atè, pou niche pousyè nan pye ou. Konsa, ou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a; sila ki tann Mwen yo p ap vin wont.”
24 Whether prey schal be takun awei fro a strong man? ether that that is takun of a stalworthe man, mai be saaf?
Èske piyaj la kapab rache nan men a nonm pwisan an? Oswa èske kaptif lejitim yo kapab delivre?
25 For the Lord seith these thingis, Sotheli and caitifte schal be takun awey fro the stronge man, and that that is takun awei of a stalworthe man, schal be saued. Forsothe Y schal deme hem, that demyden thee, and Y schal saue thi sones.
Anverite, konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Menm kaptif a nonm pwisan la va soti, e piyaj la va rache nan men nonm fò a; paske Mwen va batay ak sila ki batay avèk ou e Mwen va sove fis ou yo.
26 And Y schal fede thin enemyes with her fleischis, and thei schulen be greetli fillid with her blood as with must; and eche man schal wite, that Y am the Lord, sauynge thee, and thin ayenbiere, the strong of Jacob.
Mwen va fè opresè ou yo manje pwòp chè yo; yo va vin sou ak pwòp san yo tankou ak diven dous. Konsa, tout chè va konnen ke Mwen menm, SENYÈ a, se Sovè ou e redanmtè ou, Pwisan A Jacob la.”
