Danyèl 9
1 Lè sa a, wa Dariyis, moun peyi Medi, pitit wa Egzèsès la, t'ap mache sou ennan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Babilòn.
In the first year of Darius the son of Assuerus of the seed of the Medes, who reigned over the kingdom of the Chaldeans:
2 Mwen menm Danyèl, mwen t'ap etidye liv Bondye yo. Mwen t'ap kalkile sou swasanndizan lavil Jerizalèm te gen pou l' rete kraze a, jan Seyè a te di l' nan bouch pwofèt Jeremi an.
The first year of his reign, I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, concerning which the word of the Lord came to Jeremias the prophet, that seventy years should be accomplished of the desolation of Jerusalem.
3 Mwen leve je m' nan syèl la pou m' lapriyè Seyè a, Bondye a, ak tout kè m'. Mwen t'ap kriye nan pye l', mwen te rete san manje, yon rad sak sou mwen. Mwen te chita sou sann dife.
And I set my face to the Lord my God, to pray and make supplication with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.
4 Mwen lapriyè nan pye Seyè a, Bondye mwen an. Mwen louvri kè m' ba li, mwen mande l' padon pou pèp mwen an. Mwen di: -Seyè, Bondye, ou gen gwo pouvwa, tout moun fèt pou gen krentif pou ou. Ou kenbe pwomès ou, ou pa janm sispann renmen moun ki renmen ou epi ki kenbe kòmandman ou yo.
And I prayed to the Lord my God, and I made my confession, and said: I beseech thee, O Lord God, great and terrible, who keepest the covenant, and mercy to them that love thee, and keep thy commandments.
5 Nou peche, nou fè mechanste, nou fè sa ki mal, nou vire do ba ou, nou pa fè sa ou te mande nou fè, ni sa ou te ban nou lòd fè.
We have sinned, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly, and have revolted: and we have gone aside from thy commandments, and thy judgments.
6 Nou pa t' koute pwofèt yo, sèvitè ou yo, ki te pale nan non ou ak wa nou yo, chèf nou yo, zansèt nou yo ak tout pèp nan peyi nou an.
We have not hearkened to thy servants the prophets, that have spoken in thy name to our kings, to our princes, to our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 Ou menm, Seyè, tou sa ou fè dwat. Men, nou tout moun peyi Jida, moun lavil Jerizalèm, tout moun nan pèp Izrayèl ou te gaye nan peyi pre ak peyi lwen yo, se wont nou toujou wont sa nou fè, tankou jòdi a, paske nou pa t' kenbe pawòl nou avè ou.
To thee, O Lord, justice: but to us confusion of face, as at this day to the men of Juda, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel to them that are near, and to them that are far off in all the countries whither thou hast driven them, for their iniquities by which they have sinned against thee.
8 Wi, Seyè, se yon wont pou nou tout, wa nou yo, chèf nou yo, zansèt nou yo, paske nou te fè sa ki mal devan ou.
O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our princes, and to our fathers that have sinned.
9 Ou menm Seyè, Bondye nou, ou gen bon kè, ou konn padonnen paske nou menm nou te vire do ba ou.
But to thee, the Lord our God, mercy and forgiveness, for we have departed from thee:
10 Nou pa t' koute ou, Seyè Bondye nou, pou nou te viv dapre lòd ou te ban nou nan bouch pwofèt yo, sèvitè ou yo.
And we have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his law, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
11 Tout pèp Izrayèl la nèt pa t' swiv lòd ou. Yo pran chemen kwochi, yo pa koute ou lè ou te pale yo. Se konsa tout madichon ak tout malè ki te ekri nan lalwa Moyiz, sèvitè ou la, tonbe sou nou, paske nou te fè sa ki mal devan ou.
And all Israel have transgressed thy law, and have turned away from hearing thy voice, and the malediction, and the curse, which is written in the book of Moses the servant of God, is fallen upon us, because we have sinned against him.
12 Ou te fè tou sa ou te di w'ap fè nou ansanm ak chèf ki t'ap gouvènen nou yo. Ou voye yon sèl malè sou lavil Jerizalèm, malè ki patko janm rive sou latè.
And he hath confirmed his words which he spoke against us, and against our princes that judged us, that he would bring in upon us a great evil, such as never was under all the heaven, according to that which hath been done in Jerusalem.
13 Jan sa te ekri nan liv lalwa Moyiz la, tout malè sa a tonbe sou nou. Men, menm apre sa, nou pa t' chache fè ou plezi, Seyè Bondye nou. Nou pa t' sispann fè sa ki mal pou nou te swiv verite ou la.
As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: and we entreated not thy face, O Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and think on thy truth.
14 Wi, Seyè Bondye nou, ou te pare pou pini nou, ou pini nou vre, paske ou toujou fè sa ki dwat. Se nou ki pa koute lè ou te pale nou.
And the Lord hath watched upon the evil, and hath brought it upon us: the Lord our God is just in all his works which he hath done: for we have not hearkened to his voice.
15 Koulye a, Seyè Bondye nou, ou te fè pèp ou a soti kite peyi Lejip ak fòs ponyèt ou. Jouk jounen jòdi a y'ap nonmen non ou pou sa. Men, nou menm nou peche, nou fè sa ki mal.
And now, O Lord our God, who hast brought forth thy people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thee a name as at this day: we have sinned, we have committed iniquity,
16 Seyè, ou te toujou pran defans nou nan tan lontan. Tanpri, pa fache, pa move sou lavil Jerizalèm ankò. Se mòn pa ou la, se mòn ki apa pou ou a li ye. Tout moun k'ap viv nan peyi tou kole ak nou yo ap pase ni lavil Jerizalèm ni pèp ou a nan betiz, poutèt peche nou yo ak mechanste zansèt nou yo te fè.
O Lord, against all thy justice: let thy wrath and thy indignation be turned away, I beseech thee, from thy city Jerusalem, and from thy holy mountain. For by reason of our sins, and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem, and thy people are a reproach to all that are round about us.
17 O Bondye papa nou! Tanpri, tande lapriyè sèvitè ou la ap fè nan pye ou. M'ap mande ou, tanpri souple, voye je ou sou tanp ou a ki fin kraze, pou tout moun ka konnen se Bondye ou ye.
Now therefore, O our God, hear the supplication of thy servant, and his prayers: and shew thy face upon thy sanctuary which is desolate, for thy own sake.
18 O Bondye, pare zòrèy ou pou tande nou! Voye je ou wè jan nou fini! Gade nan ki eta lavil ki pote non ou lan ye! Se pa paske nou fè anyen ki dwat ki fè n'ap lapriyè nan pye ou konsa. Men, se paske ou gen bon kè anpil.
Incline, O my God, thy ear, and hear: open thy eyes, and see our desolation, and the city upon which thy name is called: for it is not for our justifications that we present our prayers before thy face, but for the multitude of thy tender mercies.
19 Seyè, koute nou non! Seyè, padonnen nou! Seyè, louvri zòrèy ou! Fè kichòy! Pa mize, pou tout moun ka konnen se Bondye ou ye! Lavil la ansanm ak pèp la se pou ou yo ye. Se pou yo m'ap lapriyè.
O Lord, hear: O Lord, be appeased: hearken and do: delay not for thy own sake, O my God: because thy name is invocated upon thy city, and upon thy people.
20 Mwen t'ap pale toujou nan lapriyè a, mwen t'ap rekonèt peche m' yo ak peche pèp Izrayèl la, pèp mwen an devan Bondye. Mwen t'ap mande Seyè a, Bondye mwen an, gras mizèrikòd pou mòn ki apa pou li a.
Now while I was yet speaking, and praying, and confessing my sins, and the sins of my people of Israel, and presenting my supplications in the sight of my God, for the holy mountain of my God:
21 Wi, mwen t'ap pale toujou nan lapriyè a, lè Gabriyèl, zanj mwen te wè nan premye vizyon an, vole desann kote mwen te ye a. Se lè yo te konn fè ofrann bèt aswè a.
As I was yet speaking in prayer, behold the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, flying swiftly touched me at the time of the evening sacrifice.
22 Li vini, li pale avè m'. Li di m' konsa: -Danyèl, koulye a mwen vin la a pou m' ede ou konprann mesaj la.
And he instructed me, and spoke to me, and said: O Daniel, I am now come forth to teach thee, and that thou mightest understand.
23 Depi lè ou te fèk konmanse ap lapriyè nan pye Bondye a, li te gen tan reponn ou. Se mesaj sa a mwen vin fè ou konnen. Ou se yon moun Bondye renmen anpil. Koulye a, louvri zòrèy ou pou ou ka konprann sans vizyon an byen.
From the beginning of thy prayers the word came forth: and I am come to shew it to thee, because thou art a man of desires: therefore do thou mark the word, and understand the vision.
24 Sèt fwa swasanndizan an, se tan sa a Bondye fikse pou l' delivre pèp li a ansanm ak lavil ki apa pou li a anba peche ak mechanste. Lè lè sa a va rive, l'ap padonnen tout peche. Tout moun pral mache dwat pou tout tan. Konsa, tou sa yo te anonse nan vizyon an ak nan mesaj pwofèt la va rive. Yo pral mete lotèl la apa pou Bondye ankò.
Seventy weeks are shortened upon thy people, and upon thy holy city, that transgression may be finished, and sin may have an end, and iniquity may be abolished; and everlasting justice may be brought; and vision and prophecy may be fulfilled; and the saint of saints may be anointed.
25 Konprann sa byen, louvri zòrèy ou. Depi lè yo te bay lòd pou yo te rebati Jerizalèm lan jouk lè chèf Bondye chwazi a va vini an, sèt fwa sètan pral pase. Yo pral rebati Jerizalèm avèk wout li yo ak miray ranpa li yo. Lavil la pral kanpe pou sèt fwa swasanndezan, men pandan tout tan sa a, moun pral anba anpil tray.
Know thou therefore, and take notice: that from the going forth of the word, to build up Jerusalem again, unto Christ the prince, there shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks: and the street shall be built again, and the walls in straitness of times.
26 Apre sèt fwa swasanndezan sa yo, yo pral touye chèf Bondye te chwazi a san rezon. Yon lòt chèf ap vini sot byen lwen, l'ap detwi lavil la ansanm ak Tanp lan. Tout bagay pral rete konsa, y'ap fini tankou lè gwo dlo desann. Lè sa a, pral gen lagè ak ravaj jan Bondye te pare l' la.
And after sixty-two weeks Christ shall be slain: and the people that shall deny him shall not be his. And a people with their leader that shall come, shall destroy the city and the sanctuary: and the end thereof shall be waste, and after the end of the war the appointed desolation.
27 Chèf sa a pral siyen yon kontra solid avèk anpil lòt pèp pandan sètan. Men, sou twazan sis mwa l'ap fè yo sispann touye bèt ak fè ofrann pou Bondye. Yo pral mete bagay nou pa ta renmen wè a, bagay k'ap bay gwo lapenn lan chita byen wo nan Tanp lan. L'ap rete la jouk moun ki va mete l' la a va kontre ak bout li, jan Bondye pare sa pou li a.
And he shall confirm the covenant with many, in one week: and in the half of the week the victim and the sacrifice shall fall: and there shall be in the temple the abomination of desolation: and the desolation shall continue even to the consummation, and to the end.
