Joel 3
1 For lo! in tho daies, and in that tyme, whanne Y schal turne the caitifte of Juda and of Jerusalem,
“Paske gade byen, nan jou sila yo ak nan lè sa a, lè Mwen va restore davni Juda ak Jérusalem,
2 Y schal gadere alle folkis, and Y schal lede hem in to the valei of Josephat; and Y schal dispute there with hem on my puple, and myn eritage Israel, whiche thei scateriden among naciouns; and thei departiden my lond, and senten lot on my puple;
Mwen va rasanble tout nasyon yo pou mennen yo desann nan vale Josaphat la. Epi Mwen va antre la nan jijman avèk yo pou pèp ak eritaj Mwen an, Israël, ke yo te gaye pami nasyon yo. Yo te divize tè Mwen an,
3 and thei settiden a knaue child in the bordel hous, and seelden a damesel for wyn, that thei schulden drynke.
epi te voye tiraj osò pou pèp Mwen an. Yo te twoke yon gason pou yon pwostitiye ak yon fi yo vann pou diven, pou yo ta ka bwè.”
4 But what to me and to you, thou Tire, and Sidon, and ech ende of Palestyns? Whethir ye schulen yelde vengyng to me? and if ye vengen you ayens me, soone swiftli Y schal yelde while to you on youre heed.
“Anplis, se kisa ou ye pou Mwen, O Tyr, ak Sidon, ak tout rejyon a Philistine yo? Èske se yon rekonpans ke n ap ban Mwen? Men si Mwen pa jwenn rekonpans byen vit e san delè, Mwen va fè rekonpans nou an retounen sou tèt nou.
5 Ye token awey my siluer and gold, and ye brouyten my desirable thingis and faireste thingis in to youre templis of idols.
Akoz nou te pran ajan Mwen ak lò Mwen, e te mennen bagay presye sakre Mwen yo nan tanp nou yo,
6 And ye selden the sones of Juda, and the sones of Jerusalem to the sones of Grekis, that ye schulden make hem fer fro her coostis.
epi nou te vann fis a Juda ak Jérusalem yo bay Grèk yo pou yo ta ka vin rete lwen teritwa yo,
7 Lo! Y schal reise hem fro the place in which ye seelden hem; and Y schal turne youre yeldyng in to youre heed.
gade byen, Mwen va fè yo leve soti nan plas kote nou te vann yo, pou retounen rekonpans nou an sou pwòp tèt nou.
8 And Y schal sille youre sones and youre douytris in the hondis of the sones of Juda, and thei schulen selle hem to Sabeis, a fer folc, for the Lord spak.
Anplis, Mwen va vann fis nou yo ak fi nou yo nan men a fis a Juda yo. Konsa, yo va vann yo bay Sabeyen yo, yon nasyon byen lwen,” paske SENYÈ a fin pale.
9 Crye ye this thing among hethene men, halewe ye batel, reise ye stronge men; alle men werriours, neiy, and stie.
Pwoklame sa pami nasyon yo: “Prepare nou pou fè lagè! Anime mesye pwisan yo! Kite tout sòlda yo vin pi pre. Kite yo monte kote nou.
10 Beete ye togydere youre plowis in to swerdis, and youre mattokkis in to speeris; a sijk man seie, that Y am strong.
Bat lam cha pou yo fè epe, ak kwòk rebondaj pou fè lans. Kite moun fèb yo di: ‘Mwen pwisan!’
11 Alle folkis, breke ye out, and come fro cumpas, and be ye gaderid togidere; there the Lord schal make thi stronge men to die.
Fè vit vini, tout nasyon ki ozalantou yo. Rasanble nou ansanm.” Fè desann la, O SENYÈ, moun pwisan Ou yo.
12 Folkis rise togidere, and stie in to the valei of Josofat; for Y schal sitte there, to deme alle folkis in cumpas.
“Kite nasyon yo leve pwop tèt yo pou vin monte nan vale Josaphat la; paske se la Mwen va chita pou jije tout nasyon ki ozalantou yo.
13 Sende ye sikelis, `ether sithis, for ripe corn wexide; come ye, and go ye doun, for the pressour is ful; pressouris ben plenteuouse, for the malice of hem is multiplied.
Fè antre boutdigo rekòlt la, paske rekòlt la vin mi. Vin mache foule anba pye, paske pèz diven an vin plen. Chodyè yo ap debòde, paske mechanste yo vin gran.”
14 Puplis, puplis in the valei of kittyng doun; for the dai of the Lord is nyy in the valei of kittyng doun.
Gwo foul yo, gwo foul nan vale desizyon an! Paske jou SENYÈ a toupre nan vale desizyon an.
15 The sunne and the moone ben maad derk, and sterris withdrowen her schynyng.
Solèy la ak lalin nan va vin tou nwa, e zetwal yo va pèdi briyans yo.
16 And the Lord schal rore fro Sion, and schal yyue his vois fro Jerusalem, and heuenes and erthe schulen be mouyd; and the Lord is the hope of his puple, and the strengthe of the sones of Israel.
Senyè a va gwonde soti nan Sion, e va sone vwa Li soti Jérusalem. Syèl yo ak tè a va tranble, men SENYÈ a se yon refij pou pèp Li a, ak yon sitadèl pou fis Israël yo.
17 And ye schulen wite, that Y am youre Lord God, dwellynge in Sion, in myn hooli hil; and Jerusalem schal be hooli, and aliens schulen no more passe bi it.
Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ka p viv nan Sion, mòn sen Mwen an. Nan lè sa a Jérusalem va sen, e etranje yo p ap pase ladann ankò.
18 And it schal be, in that dai mounteyns schulen droppe swetnesse, and litle hillis schulen flowe with mylke, and watris schulen go bi alle the ryueris of Juda; and a welle schal go out of the hous of the Lord, and schal moiste the stronde of thornes.
Epi nan jou sa a, mòn yo va degoute diven nèf. Nan kolin yo, se lèt ki va koule; tout ravin nan Juda va gen dlo, epi yon sous va sòti lakay SENYÈ a pou awoze vale a Sittim nan.
19 Egipt schal be in to desolacioun, and Idume in to desert of perdicioun; for that that thei diden wickidli ayens the sones of Juda, and schedden out innocent blood in her lond.
Égypte va vin yon dezè, Edom va vin yon savann dezole, akoz vyolans ki te fèt sou fis Israël yo, akoz yo te vèse san inosan an nan peyi yo.
20 And Judee schal be enhabited with outen ende, and Jerusalem in to generacioun and in to generacioun.
Men Juda va gen moun ladann jis pou tout tan e Jérusalem de jenerasyon an jenerasyon.
21 And Y schal clense the blood of hem, which Y hadde not clensid; and the Lord schal dwelle in Syon.
Epi Mwen va vanje san ke M potko vanje yo, paske SENYÈ a rete nan Sion.”
