Isaiah 9
1 In the firste tyme the lond of Zabulon and the lond of Neptalym was releessid; and at the laste the weie of the see biyende Jordan of Galile of hethene men was maad heuy.
Te gen yon lè, peyi fanmi Zabilon yo ak peyi fanmi Neftali yo t'ap drive nan labou. Men pita, va rive yon lè tout rejyon an, pran depi lanmè Meditèrane rive bò larivyè Jouden, moute peyi Galile kote moun lòt nasyon yo rete a, tout rejyon an va kanpe ankò.
2 The puple that yede in derknessis siy a greet liyt; whanne men dwelliden in the cuntre of schadewe of deth, liyt roos vp to hem.
Pèp ki t'ap mache nan fènwa a wè yon gwo limyè. Yo te rete nan yon peyi kouvri ak fènwa. Men, koulye a yon limyè vin klere yo!
3 Thou multipliedist folk, thou magnefiedist not gladnesse; thei schulen be glad bifore thee, as thei that ben glad in heruest, as ouercomeris maken ful out ioie, whanne thei han take a prey, whanne thei departen the spuylis.
Ou fè yo vin anpil, Seyè! Ou ba yo gwo kè kontan. Yo te kontan wè sa ou fè pou yo, tankou moun k'ap fè fèt lè sezon rekòt, tankou moun k'ap fè gwo fèt lè y'ap separe sa yo pran nan lagè.
4 For thou hast ouercome the yok of his birthun, and the yerde of his schuldre, and the ceptre of his wrongful axere, as in the day of Madian.
Paske ou kraze bout bwa ki te mare dèyè kou yo a, baton ki t'ap peze zepòl yo a! Wi, Seyè! Ou kraze bout fè nan men moun ki t'ap fè yo pase tray la, tankou jou lè ou te kraze moun Madyan yo!
5 For whi al violent raueyn with noise, and a cloth meddlid with blood schal be in to brennyng, and `schal be the mete of fier.
Tout soulye sòlda ki t'ap plede fè bri yo, tout rad sòlda ki te plen san yo, yo pral boule sa nan dife.
6 Forsothe a litil child is borun to vs, and a sone is youun to vs, and prinsehod is maad on his schuldre; and his name schal be clepid Wondurful, A counselour, God, Strong, A fadir of the world to comynge, A prince of pees.
Nou gen yon ti pitit ki fenk fèt. Bondye ban nou yon gason. Se li menm ki pral chèf nou. Y'a rele l': Bon konseye k'ap fè bèl bagay la, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, Papa ki la pou tout tan an, Wa k'ap bay kè poze a!
7 His empire schal be multiplied, and noon ende schal be of his pees; he schal sitte on the seete of Dauid, and on the rewme of hym, that he conferme it, and make stronge in doom and riytfulnesse, fro hennus forth and til in to with outen ende. The feruent loue of the Lord of oostis schal make this.
Gouvènman li p'ap gen finisman. Nan peyi l'ap gouvènen an se va kè poze san rete. L'ap chita sou fotèy wa David la. L'ap gouvènen peyi wa David la. L'ap fè gouvènman an byen chita, l'ap ba li bon pye paske l'ap fè sa ki dwat. Li p'ap nan patipri, depi koulye a jouk sa kaba. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ki soti pou fè tou sa rive vre!
8 The Lord sente a word in to Jacob, and it felle in Israel.
Seyè a fè konnen desizyon l' sou peyi Izrayèl la ak sou moun fanmi Jakòb yo.
9 And al the puple of Effraym schal wite, and thei that dwellen in Samarie, seiynge in the pride and greetnesse of herte,
Tout pèp Izrayèl la, tout moun ki rete lavil Samari yo va konn sa l' te di a. Men, yo sitèlman gen lògèy, yo sitèlman awogan, y'ap di:
10 Tijl stoonys fellen doun, but we schulen bilde with square stoonys; thei han kit doun sicomoris, but we schulen chaunge cedris.
Kay brik yo kraze, n'a bati lòt ak wòch taye. Yo koupe poto sikomò yo jete, n'a fè lòt ak bwa sèd mete nan plas yo.
11 And the Lord schal reise the enemyes of Rasyn on hym, and he schal turne the enemyes of hym in to noyse;
Seyè a fè lènmi pèp Izrayèl la leve dèyè l'. L'ap fè chèf lame wa Rezen lan atake l'.
12 God schal make Sirie to come fro the eest, and Filisteis fro the west; and with al the mouth thei schulen deuoure Israel. In alle these thingis the stronge veniaunce of the Lord is not turned awei, but yit his hond is stretchid forth;
Peyi Lasiri sou bò solèy leve, peyi Filisti sou bò solèy kouche, y'ap devore pèp Izrayèl la ak gwo koutdan. Men, se poko sa toujou! Se atò Seyè a move. Li poko fin regle ak yo.
13 and the puple is not turned ayen to the Lord smytynge it, and thei souyten not the Lord of oostis.
Pèp Izrayèl la pa chanje. Yo pa tounen vin jwenn moun ki t'ap pini yo a, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a.
14 And the Lord schal leese fro Israel the heed and the tail; crokynge and bischrewynge, ether refreynynge, in o dai.
Yon sèl jou a, Seyè a ap koupe ni tèt pèp Izrayèl la ni ke l'. L'ap pini tout chèf pèp la, gwo kou piti.
15 An elde man and onourable, he is the heed, and a profete techynge a leesyng, he is the tail.
Chèf fanmi yo ak notab yo, se yo ki tèt pèp la. Ke a menm, se pwofèt yo, papa mantò!
16 And thei that blessen his puple, schulen be disseyueris, and thei that ben blessid, schulen be cast doun.
Moun k'ap dirije pèp la fè l' pèdi chemen l'. Pèp la lage kò l' nan bwa.
17 For this thing the Lord schal not be glad on the yonge men therof, and he schal not haue merci on the fadirles children and widewis therof; for ech man is an ypocrite and weiward, and ech mouth spak foli. In alle these thingis the stronge veniaunce of hym is not turned awei, but yit his hond is stretchid forth;
Se poutèt sa, Seyè a p'ap pran priyè nan men jenn gason yo. L'ap san pitye pou timoun ki san papa yo ak fanm ki pèdi mari yo, paske se tout pèp la nèt ki pa gen respè pou Bondye, yo tout ap fè mechanste. Se renk move pawòl ase ki nan bouch yo. Men se poko sa toujou! Se atò Seyè a move. Li poko fin regle ak yo.
18 and the puple is not turned ayen to the Lord smytynge it. For whi wickidnesse is kyndlid as fier; it schal deuoure the breris and thornes, and it schal be kyndlid in the thickenesse of the forest, and it schal be wlappid togidere in the pride of smoke.
Mechanste kaye nan mitan pèp la, tankou dife nan pikan ak nan raje. Dife a pran nan rakbwa yo, yo tounen lafimen k'ap moute nan syèl la.
19 In the wraththe of the Lord of oostis the lond schal be disturblid, and the puple schal be as the mete of fier; a man schal not spare his brothir.
Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a te sitèlman move, li fini ak peyi a. Se tankou yon dife k'ap boule tout moun nan peyi a. Pesonn pa ka sove pesonn.
20 And he schal boowe to the riyt half, and he schal hungre, and he schal ete at the left half, and he schal not be fillid; ech man schal deuoure the fleisch of his arm. Manasses schal deuoure Effraym, and Effraym `schal deuoure Manasses, and thei togidere ayens Juda.
Yo vire adwat, yo pran sa yo jwenn, yo grangou toujou. Yo vire agoch, yo devore sa yo jwenn, se atò yo grangou. Yo menm rive manje pwòp pitit yo!
21 In alle these thingis the strong veniaunce of hym is not turned awei, but yit his hoond is stretchid forth.
Moun Manase yo ak moun Efrayim yo, yonn ap devore lòt. Lèfini, yo mete tèt ansanm pou atake moun Jida yo. Men, se poko sa toujou! Se atò Seyè a move. Li poko fin regle ak yo!
