Ezayi 18

1 Lòt bò larivyè peyi Letiopi yo, gen yon peyi kote yo tande yon bri tankou bri zèl yon bann krikèt.

woe! land: country/planet buzzing wing which from side: beyond to/for river Cush

2 Mesaje ap soti nan peyi sa a, y'ap desann larivyè Nil lan nan pipirit fèt ak wozo. Nou menm mesaje yo, mete zèl nan pye nou. Tounen lakay nou. Pote nouvèl la bay moun peyi nou an. Se yon gwo peyi ki fò anpil, ki gen anpil larivyè k'ap koule ladan l'. Al pote nouvèl la bay moun bèl wotè yo, ki gen po yo boule nan solèy. Se yon pèp tout moun pè.

[the] to send: depart in/on/with sea envoy and in/on/with article/utensil reed upon face: surface water to go: went messenger swift to(wards) nation to draw and to smooth to(wards) people to fear from he/she/it and further nation might might and subjugation which to divide river land: country/planet his

3 Nou tout ki rete sou latè, leve je nou gade. Yo pral bay siyal la ak drapo kanpe sou tèt mòn yo. Louvri zòrèy nou, tande. Yo pral sonnen klewon an.

all to dwell world and to dwell land: country/planet like/as to lift: raise ensign mountain: mount to see: see and like/as to blow trumpet to hear: hear

4 Seyè a di m' konsa: M'ap rete rete m' kote m' ye nan syèl la, m'ap gade anba san m' pa fè ankenn bri, tankou solèy la lè l'ap klere gwo midi, tankou lawouze k'ap tonbe nan mitan chalè lannwit nan sezon rekòt.

for thus to say LORD to(wards) me (to quiet *Q(k)*) and to look in/on/with foundation my like/as heat dazzling upon light like/as cloud dew in/on/with heat harvest

5 Paske, menm jan anvan rekòt rezen yo, lè yo fin fleri, lè rezen yo pral mi, yo debranche yo ak kouto, yo wete tout ti branch yo, yo ba yo lè, se konsa lènmi yo pral detwi moun peyi Letiopi yo.

for to/for face: before harvest like/as to finish flower and unripe grape to wean to be flower and to cut: cut [the] tendril in/on/with pruner and [obj] [the] tendril to turn aside: remove to strike away

6 Yo pral kite kadav sòlda yo konsa pou zwezo ki manje vyann epi ki rete nan mòn ak pou bèt nan bwa. Nan sezon chalè, zwezo va vin manje yo. Nan sezon fredi, se bèt nan bwa ki va vin manje yo.

to leave: forsake together to/for bird of prey mountain: mount and to/for animal [the] land: country/planet and to summer upon him [the] bird of prey and all animal [the] land: country/planet upon him to winter

7 Lè sa a, bann moun bèl wotè ki gen po yo boule nan solèy, pèp tout moun pè a, moun ki rete nan gwo peyi ki gen fò anpil la, yo menm ki rete nan peyi ki nan tèt dlo larivyè Nil lan, y'a pote kado bay Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a. Y'a vin jouk sou mòn Siyon an kote moun fè sèvis pou Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a.

in/on/with time [the] he/she/it to conduct gift to/for LORD Hosts people to draw and to smooth and from people to fear from he/she/it and further nation might might and subjugation which to divide river land: country/planet his to(wards) place name LORD Hosts mountain: mount Zion
