Isaiah 34
1 Come near, ye nations, to hear, And ye peoples, give attention, Hear doth the earth and its fulness, The world, and all its productions.
Nou menm moun tout nasyon yo, pwoche pou n' koute! Tout pèp sou latè, louvri zòrèy nou! Se pou tout moun ansanm ak tout bagay ki sou latè yo koute!
2 For wrath [is] to Jehovah against all the nations, And fury against all their host, He hath devoted them to destruction, He hath given them to slaughter.
Seyè a fache sou tout nasyon yo nèt, ansanm ak lame sòlda yo. Li kondannen yo tout pou yo mouri, pou yo touye yo tankou bèt y'ap ofri pou touye pou li.
3 And their wounded are cast out, And their carcases cause their stench to ascend, And melted have been mountains from their blood.
Yo p'ap antere kadav moun mouri yo. Y'ap kite yo pouri santi. Tout mòn yo pral wouj ak san.
4 And consumed have been all the host of the heavens, And rolled together as a book have been the heavens, And all their hosts do fade, As the fading of a leaf of a vine, And as the fading one of a fig-tree.
Tou sa ki nan syèl la, solèy, lalin ak zetwal yo, pral disparèt. Yo pral woule syèl la tankou yon woulo papye pote ale. Tou sa ki nan syèl la pral tonbe tankou fèy pye rezen ak fèy pye fig frans lè y'ap jete fèy.
5 For soaked in the heavens was My sword, Lo, on Edom it cometh down, On the people of My curse for judgment.
Nan syèl la, nepe Seyè a mande san. Men l'ap desann sou peyi Edon an pou l' pini moun mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen te kondannen pou mouri.
6 A sword [is] to Jehovah — it hath been full of blood, It hath been made fat with fatness, With blood of lambs and he-goats. With fat of kidneys of rams, For a sacrifice [is] to Jehovah in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
Nepe Seyè a pral benyen ak san yo tankou san mouton ak san bouk yo touye pou li. Li pral kouvri ak grès tankou grès wonyon belye yo touye pou li. Yo pral fè yon ofrann bèt pou Seyè a lavil Bozra. Yo pral fè yon gwo masak nan peyi Edon.
7 And come down have reems with them, And bullocks with bulls, And soaked hath been their land from blood, And their dust from fatness is made fat.
Moun pral mouri tankou gwo towo bèf mawon ak jenn ti towo. Tè a pral plen san, li pral kouvri ak grès.
8 (For a day of vengeance [is] to Jehovah, A year of recompences for Zion's strife, )
Paske, se jou Seyè a pral pran revanj li sou lènmi peyi Siyon yo. Se jou li pral fè yo peye sa yo te fè a, pou l' ka delivre moun Siyon yo.
9 And turned have been her streams to pitch, And her dust to brimstone, And her land hath become burning pitch.
Tout dlo larivyè nan peyi Edon pral tounen goudwon. Pousyè tè a ap tounen souf. Tout peyi a pral boule tankou goudwon.
10 By night and by day she is not quenched, To the age go up doth her smoke, From generation to generation she is waste, For ever and ever, none is passing into her.
L'ap boule lajounen kou lannwit. Lafimen pral soti ladan l' tout tan san rete. Tè a ap tounen savann pou tout tan tout tan. Moun p'ap janm pase la ankò.
11 And possess her do pelican and hedge-hog, And owl and raven dwell in her, And He hath stretched out over her A line of vacancy, and stones of emptiness.
Se la koukou ak frize pral fè nich yo. Se la kaou ak malfini pral rete. Seyè a pral fè l' tounen yon dezè san anyen ladan li.
12 [To] the kingdom her freemen they call, But there are none there, And all her princes are at an end.
P'ap gen grannèg pou chwazi wa ankò pou gouvènen peyi a, tout chèf yo ap disparèt.
13 And gone up her palaces have thorns, Nettle and bramble [are] in her fortresses, And it hath been a habitation of dragons, A court for daughters of an ostrich.
Pikan pral pouse nan tout palè l' yo, kwòkachen ak chadwon pral pouse nan tout fò yo. Se la chen mawon pral rete. Se la otrich pral fè nich yo.
14 And met have Ziim with Aiim, And the goat for its companion calleth, Only there rested hath the night-owl, And hath found for herself a place of rest.
Bèt k'ap viv nan dezè yo pral kontre ak chen mawon. Mal yo, yonn pral rele lòt. Se la lagrandyab la pral rete. Se la l'a jwenn yon kote pou l' poze kò l'.
15 There made her nest hath the bittern, Yea, she layeth, and hath hatched, And hath gathered under her shadow, Only there gathered have been vultures, Each with its companion.
Se la koulèv pral fè nich yo, se la y'ap ponn. Se la y'ap kouve ze yo, se la y'ap okipe pitit yo. Se la malfini karanklou yo pral sanble.
16 Seek out of the book of Jehovah, and read, One of these hath not been lacking, None hath missed its companion, For My mouth — it hath commanded, And His spirit — He hath gathered them.
Ale gade nan liv Bondye a. Li sa ki ladan l'. Pa manke yon sèl nan tout bèt li kreye yo. Yo yonn pa pèdi parèy yo. Se Seyè a menm ki bay lòd sa a. Se lespri li k'ap mete yo ansanm yonn ak lòt.
17 And He hath cast for them a lot, And His hand hath apportioned [it] to them by line, Unto the age they possess it, To all generations they dwell in it!
Se li menm menm ki pral separe tè a ba yo chak pòsyon pa yo. Y'ap rete nan peyi a pou tout tan. Peyi a va rele yo pa yo jouk sa kaba.
