Ezayi 10
1 Madichon pou chèf k'ap bay move lòd pou kache lenjistis y'ap fè, k'ap ekri move lwa pou peze pèp la!
Woe vnto them that decree wicked decrees, and write grieuous things,
2 Se konsa, yo enpoze pòv malere yo defann dwa yo. Yo fè jijman ki pou ta nan avantaj pèp la tounen nan avantaj pa yo. Y'ap piye fanm ki pèdi mari yo, y'ap vòlò byen timoun ki san papa yo!
To keepe backe ye poore from iudgement, and to take away the iudgement of the poore of my people, that widowes may be their pray, and that they may spoyle the fatherlesse.
3 Kisa n'a fè lè Bondye va fè malè soti byen lwen vin tonbe sou nou? Kay ki moun n'a kouri al chache sekou ak pwoteksyon? Ki kote n' aval kache tout richès nou yo?
What will ye doe nowe in the day of visitation, and of destruction, which shall come from farre? to whom will ye flee for helpe? and where will ye leaue your glorie?
4 Adye! Y'ap fè nou prizonye. Y'ap depòte nou, si nou pa gen tan mouri nan lagè. Men, se poko sa toujou. Se atò Seyè a move. Li poko fin regle ak yo!
Without me euery one shall fall among them that are bound, and they shall fall downe among the slayne: yet for all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
5 Seyè a di: -Madichon pou peyi Lasiri a! Paske, l'ap tankou yon baton nan men m' pou m' pini pèp la. M'ap sèvi avèk pouvwa ki nan men l' lan pou m' fè pèp la wè jan m' ankòlè.
O Asshur, the rodde of my wrath: and the staffe in their hands is mine indignation.
6 Mwen te voye l' kouri al atake yon nasyon ki derespekte m'. Mwen te ba li manda pou l' regle yon pèp ki te fè m' fache anpil, pou l' pase men pran tou sa yo genyen, pou l' piye yo, pou l' pilonnen yo anba pye l' tankou pousyè nan lari.
I will sende him to a dissembling nation, and I will giue him a charge against the people of my wrath to take the spoyle and to take the pray, and to treade them vnder feete like the mire in the streete.
7 Men, wa peyi Lasiri a pa t' wè bagay la konsa. Se pa konsa li te konprann li. Paske lide li te met nan tèt li se kraze brize, se disparèt anpil anpil nasyon.
But he thinketh not so, neither doeth his heart esteeme it so: but he imagineth to destroy and to cut off not a fewe nations.
8 Li t'ap plede di: Tout chèf lame mwen yo se wa yo ye nan lòt peyi!
For he sayeth, Are not my princes altogether Kings?
9 Mwen pran lavil Kalno menm jan mwen te pran lavil Kakemich. Mwen pran lavil Amat menm jan mwen te pran lavil Apad. Mwen pran lavil Samari menm jan mwen te pran lavil Damas.
Is not Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria as Damascus?
10 Menm jan mwen te leve men m' pou m' te pini peyi k'ap sèvi zidòl yo, peyi ki te gen plis estati zidòl pase lavil Jerizalèm ak lavil Samari,
Like as mine hand hath founde the kingdomes of the idoles, seeing their idoles were aboue Ierusalem, and aboue Samaria:
11 menm jan nou wè mwen te aji ak Samari ak zidòl li yo, se konsa m'ap aji ak lavil Jerizalèm ak pòtre l'ap adore yo.
Shall not I, as I haue done to Samaria, and to the idoles thereof, so doe to Ierusalem and to the idoles thereof?
12 Men sa Seyè a di: Lè m'a fin fè sa m'ap fè a sou mòn Siyon ak nan lavil Jerizalèm, m'ap pini wa peyi Lasiri a pou pretansyon li mete nan tèt li, pou awogans li genyen lè l'ap gade moun.
But when the Lord hath accomplished all his worke vpon mount Zion and Ierusalem, I will visite the fruite of the proude heart of the King of Asshur, and his glorious and proud lookes,
13 Paske l'ap mache di: Se ak fòs ponyèt mwen mwen fè tou sa! Mwen gen bon konprann, mwen gen anpil lespri. Mwen wete bòn ki te make fwontyè pèp yo. Mwen devalize tou sa yo te sere. Tankou gwo towo bèf, mwen kraze tout moun ki t'ap viv la yo anba pye m'.
Because he said, By ye power of mine owne hand haue I done it, and by my wisdome, because I am wise: therefore I haue remooued the borders of the people, and haue spoyled their treasures, and haue pulled downe the inhabitants like a valiant man.
14 Nasyon latè yo te tankou nich zwezo pou mwen: mwen annik lonje men m', mwen pran tout richès yo. Mwen mache toupatou sou latè ap ranmase, tankou moun ranmase ze k'ap drive nan nich san gadò. Pa t' gen yonn ki bat zèl li pou fè m' pè. Pa t' gen yon bouch ki louvri pou di m' anyen, ni pou plenyen.
And mine hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people, and as one gathereth egges that are left, so haue I gathered all the earth: and there was none to mooue the wing or to open the mouth, or to whisper.
15 Men sa Seyè a di ankò: Eske yon rach ka pretann travay li fè a se li ki fè l'? Se pa moun k'ap sèvi avè l' la ki fè l'? Eske yon goyin ka mache di sa l' fè a se li ki fè l'? Moun k'ap sèvi avè l' la pou anyen nan sa l'ap fè a? Se tankou si se fwèt la k'ap kòmande moun ki kenbe l' nan men l' lan, tankou si se baton an k'ap sèvi ak moun ki genyen l' nan men l' lan.
Shall the axe boast it selfe against him that heweth therewith? or shall the sawe exalt it selfe against him that moueth it? as if the rod shoulde lift vp it selfe against him that taketh it vp, or the staffe should exalt it selfe, as it were no wood.
16 Se poutèt sa, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pral voye yon sèl maladi deperi sou bann moun gra sa yo, yon sèl chalè ki pral leve nan tout kò yo, tankou yon gwo dife ki pran sou yo.
Therefore shall the Lord God of hostes send amog his fat men, leannes, and vnder his glorie he shall kindle a burning, like the burning of fire.
17 Bondye ki limyè pèp Izrayèl la pral tounen yon dife. Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki yon Bondye apa pral tounen yon flanm dife. Nan yon sèl jou l'ap boule tout pikan ak tout raje, fè yo tounen sann.
And the light of Israel shalbe as a fire, and the Holy one thereof as a flame, and it shall burne, and deuoure his thornes and his briers in one day:
18 Li pral detwi gwo rakbwa yo ak bèl jaden yo nèt. Depi nan rasin yo jouk nan fèy yo, pyebwa yo ap cheche, menm jan yon move maladi souse yon moun jouk li touye l'.
And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitfull fieldes both soule and flesh: and he shalbe as ye fainting of a standard bearer.
19 P'ap rete anpil pyebwa nan rak li yo ankò. Nenpòt timoun piti ka konte ti rès la.
And the rest of the trees of his forest shalbe fewe, that a childe may tell them.
20 Yon jou gen pou vini. Lè sa a, ti rès moun pèp Izrayèl la, sa ki te chape anba lanmò nan fanmi Jakòb la, p'ap konte ankò sou pèp ki te twaka fini ak yo a. Y'a mete konfyans yo tout bon nan Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki yon Bondye apa.
And at that day shall the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Iaakob, stay no more vpon him that smote them, but shall stay vpon ye Lord, ye Holy one of Israel in trueth.
21 Se yon ti ponyen moun ase, yon ti rès nan fanmi Jakòb la k'ap tounen vin jwenn Bondye yo a ki gen pouvwa.
The remnant shall returne, euen the remnant of Iaakob vnto the mightie God.
22 Menm si moun pèp Izrayèl yo te anpil tankou grenn sab bò lanmè, se yon ti ponyen ase k'ap tounen. Wè pa wè, y'ap detwi pèp la. Se sa menm li merite.
For though thy people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea, yet shall the remnant of them returne. The consumption decreed shall ouerflow with righteousnesse.
23 Wi, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pral fè lènmi mache nan tout peyi a pou yo devalize l' jan li te di l'ap fè l' la.
For the Lord God of hostes shall make the consumption, euen determined, in the middes of all the land.
24 Se poutèt sa, Seyè sèl Mèt ki gen tout pouvwa a di konsa: -Nou menm, pèp mwen ki rete sou mòn Siyon an, nou pa bezwen pè moun peyi Lasiri yo k'ap woule nou anba baton, k'ap leve men yo pou yo frape nou menm jan moun peyi Lejip yo te fè nou an.
Therefore thus saith ye Lord God of hostes, O my people, that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of Asshur: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift vp his staffe against thee after the maner of Egypt:
25 Talè konsa, m'ap fin regle ak nou. Apre sa, m'ap vire sou yo, m'ap disparèt yo.
But yet a very litle time, and the wrath shall be consumed, and mine anger in their destruction.
26 Mwen menm, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, m'ap pran fwèt pou m' bat yo, menm jan mwen te bat moun peyi Madyan yo bò gwo wòch Orèb la. M'ap fè peyi Lasiri soufri menm jan mwen te fè peyi Lejip soufri a.
And ye Lord of hostes shall raise vp a scourge for him, according to the plague of Midian in the rocke Oreb: and as his staffe was vpon the Sea, so he will lift it vp after the maner of Egypt.
27 Lè jou sa a va rive, m'a wete chay sa a sou zepòl nou; m'a delivre nou anba moun peyi Lasiri yo. Nou p'ap nan mizè ankò, n'ap gen tou sa n'a bezwen.
And at that day shall his burden be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy necke: and the yoke shalbe destroied because of the anoynting.
28 Lènmi gen tan rive nan peyi Ajat! Men y'ap travèse peyi Migwon! Yo kite tout zafè yo lavil Mikmas.
He is come to Aiath: he is passed into Migron: at Michmash shall he lay vp his armour.
29 Yo travèse pas la! Yo pase nwit lan lavil Geba! Moun lavil Rama yo ap tranble. Moun lavil Gibeya yo, peyi wa Sayil la, kouri mete deyò.
They haue gone ouer the foorde: they lodged in the lodging at Geba: Ramah is afraide: Gibeah of Saul is fled away.
30 Nou menm moun lavil Gatim, pete rele! Nou menm moun lavil Layich, mache sou piga nou! Nou menm moun lavil Anatòt, nou nan ka!
Lift vp thy voyce, O daughter Gallim, cause Laish to heare, O poore Anathoth.
31 Moun lavil Madmena yo chape kò yo. Moun lavil Gebim yo al kache.
Madmenah is remoued: the inhabitants of Gebim haue gathered themselues together.
32 Jòdi a, lènmi an fè yon rete lavil Nòb. L'ap giyonnen moun ki rete sou mòn Siyon yo. L'ap lonje dwèt sou lavil Jerizalèm.
Yet there is a time that he will stay at Nob: he shall lift vp his hand towarde the mount of the daughter Zion, the hill of Ierusalem.
33 Seyè sèl Mèt ki gen tout pouvwa a pral desann yo tankou branch bwa y'ap koupe mete atè. L'ap koupe tèt tou sa ki wo yo. Tou sa ki byen kanpe yo, l'ap lage yo atè.
Beholde, the Lord God of hostes shall cut off the bough with feare, and they of high stature shalbe cut off, and the hie shalbe humbled.
34 L'ap koupe yo tankou lè y'ap mete rach nan gwo pyebwa nan rak. Bèl pyebwa ki sou mòn Liban yo pral kouche plat atè!
And he shall cut away the thicke places of the forest with yron, and Lebanon shall haue a mightie fall.
