Malachi 2
1 And now, A! ye preestis, this maundement is to you.
Koulye a, men lòd mwen bay prèt yo:
2 If ye wolen here, and if ye `wolen not putte on the herte, that ye yyue glorie to my name, seith the Lord of oostis, Y schal sende nedynesse in to you, and Y schal curse to youre blessyngis; and Y schal curse hem, for ye han not putte on the herte.
Si nou pa koute sa m'ap di nou la a, si nou pa soti pou nou sèvi yon lwanj pou mwen, m'ap voye madichon sou nou. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a k'ap pale konsa wi. M'ap madichonnen tout bon bagay k'ap vin pou nou yo. Wi, mwen madichonnen yo deja, paske nou pa soti pou nou sèvi yon lwanj pou mwen.
3 Lo! Y schal caste to you the arm, and Y schal scatere on youre cheere the drit of youre solempnytees, and it schal take you with it.
Mwen pral touye pitit nou yo. Mwen pral voye salte, tripay bèt nou ofri yo nan figi nou. Lèfini, m'ap voye nou jete ansanm ak yo.
4 And ye schulen wite, that Y sente to you this maundement, that my couenaunt were with Leuy, seith the Lord of oostis.
Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki te ban nou lòd sa a, pou kontra mwen te pase ak fanmi Levi a ka toujou la. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ki di sa.
5 My couenaunt was with hym of lijf and pees; and Y yaf to hym a drede, and he dredde me, and he dredde of face of my name.
Nan kontra mwen te pase ak yo a, mwen te pwomèt mwen t'ap ba yo lavi ak kè poze. E mwen te ba yo l'. Yo menm, se pou yo te gen krentif pou mwen. Yo te gen krentif pou mwen vre, yo te respekte m'.
6 The lawe of trewthe was in his mouth, and wickidnesse was not foundun in hise lippis; in pees and in equite he walkide with me, and he turnede awei many men fro wickidnesse.
Se verite ase ki te soti nan bouch yo. Yo pa t' janm chache twonpe m'. Yo toujou mache avè m' ak kè poze. Yo t'ap fè sa ki dwat. Yo te fè anpil moun sispann fè sa ki mal.
7 For the lippis of a prest kepen science, and thei schulen ayen seke the lawe of `the mouth of hym, for he is an aungel of the Lord of oostes.
Se devwa prèt yo pou yo moutre moun sa Bondye ye. Moun al kote yo pou yo ka konnen sa Bondye mande yo fè. Paske se mesaje Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a yo ye.
8 But ye wenten awei fro the weie, and sclaundren ful many men in the lawe; ye maden voide the couenaunt of Leuy, seith the Lord of oostis.
Men, nou menm prèt yo, nou kite chemen Bondye a. Nou lakòz anpil moun pa kenbe kòmandman mwen bay yo. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ki di sa. Nou pa kenbe kontra mwen te fè ak moun fanmi Levi yo.
9 For which thing and Y yaf you worthi to be dispisid, and bowen to alle puplis, as ye kepten not my weies, and token a face in the lawe.
Se poutèt sa m'ap fè tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo derespekte nou. Y'ap pran nou pou vakabon, paske nou pa fè sa mwen mande nou fè. Nou gade sou figi moun lè pou n' di yo sa lalwa a mande.
10 Whether not o fadir is of alle you? whether o God made not of nouyt you? Whi therfor ech of you dispisith his brother, and defoulith the couenaunt of youre fadris?
Eske se pa yon sèl papa a nou tout nou genyen? Eske se pa yon sèl Bondye ki fè nou tou? Poukisa atò nou pa kenbe pwomès nou yonn ak lòt? Poukisa nou meprize kontra Bondye te fè ak zansèt nou yo?
11 Judas trespasside, and abhomynacioun is maad in Israel, and in Jerusalem; for Judas defoulide the halewyng of the Lord, which he louyde, and he hadde the douyter of an alien god.
Moun Jida yo trayi Bondye. Yo fè yon move bagay ki lèd anpil nan peyi Izrayèl la ak nan lavil Jerizalèm. Yo derespekte kay Bondye renmen anpil la. Mesye yo marye ak fanm k'ap sèvi lòt bondye.
12 The Lord schal distrie the man that dide this thing, the maister and disciple, fro the tabernacle of Jacob, and him that offrith a yifte to the Lord of oostis.
Tout moun ki fè bagay sa a, se pou Seyè a pa kite yo jwenn yon moun nan fanmi Jakòb la pou kanpe pou yo osinon pou fè ofrann bay Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pou yo.
13 And eftsoone ye diden this thing; ye hiliden with teeris the auter of the Lord, with wepyng and mourenyng; so that Y biholde no more to sacrifice, nether resseyue ony thing plesaunt of youre hond.
Men yon lòt bagay nou fè ankò: N'ap benyen lotèl Seyè a ak dlo ki sot nan je nou. N'ap kriye, n'ap plenyen paske Seyè a pa menm gade ofrann nou fè l' yo, li derefize asepte anyen nan men nou.
14 And ye seiden, For what cause? For the Lord witnesside bitwixe thee and the wijf of thi `puberte, that is, tyme of mariage, which thou dispisidist, and this is thi felowe, and wijf of thi couenaunt.
Epi n'ap mande poukisa? Se paske Seyè a wè sa ou fè madanm ou te marye lè ou te jenn lan. Ou pa kenbe pwomès ou te fè l' la. Ou te pase kontra avè l', ou te pwomèt Bondye ou t'ap kenbe l' pou madanm ou pou tout tan.
15 Whether oon made not, and residue of spirit is his? and what sekith oon, no but the seed of God? Therfore kepe ye youre spirit, and nyle thou dispise the wijf of thi yongthe;
Eske Bondye pa t' fè nou tounen yon sèl kò ak yon sèl nanm? Poukisa li te fè sa? Se pou nou te ka fè pitit ki pou sèvi l'. Konsa, fè respè tèt nou! Respekte pwomès nou te fè madanm nou te marye lè nou te jenn lan.
16 whanne thou hatist hir, leue thou hir, seith the Lord God of Israel. Forsothe wickidnesse schal kyuere the closyng of hym, seith the Lord of oostis; kepe ye youre spirit, and nyle ye dispise.
Mwen rayi wè lè mouche separe ak madanm. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ki di sa. Mwen rayi wè moun k'ap aji mal konsa ak madanm yo. Se poutèt sa, fè respè tèt nou! Kenbe pwomès nou te fè madanm nou.
17 Ye maden the Lord for to trauele in youre wordis, and ye seiden, Wherynne maden we hym for to trauele? In that that ye seien, Ech man that doith yuel, is good in the siyt of the Lord, and siche plesen to hym; ether certis where is the God of doom?
N'ap fatige tèt Seyè a ak yon bann pawòl. Epi n'ap di: Ki jan n'ap fatige l' la? Se lè n'ap plede di: Tout moun ki fè sa ki mal yo bon nan je Seyè a. Li kontan ak yo. Ou ankò lè n'ap mande: Kote Bondye k'ap rann jistis la?
