Danyèl 12
1 Zanj ki te gen rad swa sou li a, di ankò: -Lè sa a, Michèl, gwo zanj k'ap veye sou pèp ou a, ap parèt. Se pral yon tan kè sere moun poko janm wè depi yo sou latè. Lè lè a va rive, tout moun ki fè pati pèp ou a epi ki gen non yo ekri nan liv Bondye a, va sove.
'And at that time stand up doth Michael, the great head, who is standing up for the sons of thy people, and there hath been a time of distress, such as hath not been since there hath been a nation till that time, and at that time do thy people escape, every one who is found written in the book.
2 Anpil nan moun ki te mouri deja yo pral leve vivan ankò. Gen ladan yo ki pral jwi lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. Gen lòt ki pral wont, yo pral soufri avilisman ki p'ap janm fini an.
'And the multitude of those sleeping in the dust of the ground do awake, some to life age-during, and some to reproaches — to abhorrence age-during.
3 Moun ki gen lespri yo pral klere tankou limyè nan syèl la. Moun ki te moutre jan pou moun mache dwat yo va klere tankou zetwal pou tout tan tout tan.
And those teaching do shine as the brightness of the expanse, and those justifying the multitude as stars to the age and for ever.
4 Li di m' ankò: -Bon. Koulye a, Danyèl, fèmen liv la. Sele l' byen sele jouk lè a va rive pou tout bagay fini. Anpil moun pral bat kò yo pou yo konprann sa k'ap pase. Lè sa a, plis konesans pral gaye toupatou sou latè.
And thou, O Daniel, hide the things, and seal the book till the time of the end, many do go to and fro, and knowledge is multiplied.'
5 Mwen gade, mwen wè de lòt moun ki te kanpe bò larivyè a, yonn sou bò dwat, yonn sou bò gòch.
And I have looked — I, Daniel — and lo, two others are standing, one here at the edge of the flood, and one there at the edge of the flood,
6 Yonn ladan yo pale ak zanj ki te pi wo a, nan direksyon tèt dlo a, zanj ki te gen rad swa sou li a, li mande l': -Konbe tan ankò anvan pou gwo bagay sa yo rive?
and he saith to the one clothed in linen, who [is] upon the waters of the flood, 'Till when [is] the end of these wonders?'
7 Zanj lan leve bra l' anlè nan syèl la, mwen tande li fè yon gwo sèman nan non Bondye vivan an, li di konsa: -Nan twazan si mwa, lè y'a fin kraze tout fòs pèp Bondye a, tout bagay sa yo va rive.
And I hear the one clothed in linen, who [is] upon the waters of the flood, and he doth lift up his right hand and his left unto the heavens, and sweareth by Him who is living to the age, that, 'After a time, times, and a half, and at the completion of the scattering of the power of the holy people, finished are all these.'
8 Mwen tande sa l' te di a, men mwen pa t' konprann. Konsa, mwen mande l': -Men, mèt, ki jan sa ap fini menm?
And I have heard, and I do not understand, and I say, 'O my lord, what [is] the latter end of these?'
9 Li reponn mwen: -Danyèl monchè, ou mèt al fè wout ou, paske koze sa a fèt pou rete kache epi byen sele, jouk lè a va rive pou sa fini.
And he saith, 'Go, Daniel; for hidden and sealed [are] the things till the time of the end;
10 Lè sa a, anpil moun pral pase anba soufrans yo te anonse a. Y'ap soti netwaye, lave, blanchi. Moun k'ap fè mechanste yo menm p'ap konprann anyen, y'ap toujou rete ap fè mechanste yo. Men, moun ki gen lespri ap konprann.
Purify themselves, yea, make themselves white, yea, refined are many: and the wicked have done wickedly, and none of the wicked understand, and those acting wisely do understand;
11 Si ou konte depi lè yo va aboli ofrann bèt ki pou fèt chak jou a, pou yo mete bagay nou pa ta renmen wè a, bagay k'ap bay gwo lapenn lan, kanpe nan Tanp lan, w'ap jwenn mil desankatrevendis (1290) jou ki gen pou pase.
and from the time of the turning aside of the perpetual [sacrifice], and to the giving out of the desolating abomination, [are] days a thousand, two hundred, and ninety.
12 Ala bon sa pral bon pou moun ki va kenbe fèm jouk mil twasantrannsenk (1.335) jou sa yo va fin pase!
O the blessedness of him who is waiting earnestly, and doth come to the days, a thousand, three hundred, thirty and five.
13 Ou menm, Danyèl, kenbe fèm jouk sa kaba. Apre sa, w'a mouri. Men, w'a leve vivan ankò pou resevwa rekonpans ou lè tout bagay va fini!
And thou, go on to the end, then thou dost rest, and dost stand in thy lot at the end of the days.'
