< Ezayi 19 >

1 Men mesaj Bondye bay sou peyi Lejip la: -Seyè a chita sou yon nwaj k'ap kouri desann bò peyi Lejip la. Zidòl Lejip yo tranble devan l'. Moun peyi Lejip yo gen kè kase.
The burden of Egypt: "Look, the LORD rides on a swift cloud, and comes to Egypt. The idols of Egypt will tremble at his presence; and the heart of Egypt will melt in its midst.
2 Seyè a di: M'ap fè moun peyi Lejip yo leve yonn dèyè lòt. Yo pral goumen yonn ak lòt, vwazinaj ak vwazinaj, vil ak vil, chèf ak chèf.
I will stir up the Egyptians against the Egyptians, and they will fight everyone against his brother, and everyone against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
3 Nou pral fè yo pèdi tèt yo, yo p'ap konn sa pou yo fè. Yo pral rele nan pye zidòl yo, yo pral kay majisyen, kay divinò ak kay moun k'ap rele mò.
The spirit of Egypt will fail in its midst. I will destroy its counsel. They will seek the idols, spirits of the dead, mediums, and spiritists.
4 Mwen pral lage moun Lejip yo nan men yon chèf ki rèd anpil, nan men yon wa mechan ki pral gouvènen yo. Se mwen menm, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki di sa!
I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord. A fierce king will rule over them," says the LORD of hosts.
5 Dlo larivyè Nil lan pral bese jouk l'a rive chèch nèt.
The waters will fail from the sea, and the river will be wasted and become dry.
6 Kannal yo pral santi, dlo kannal yo pral bese jouk yo chèch. Pye wozo ak pye jon yo pral fennen.
The rivers will become foul. The streams of Egypt will be diminished and dried up. The reeds and flags will wither away.
7 Tout pyebwa ki pouse, tout jaden yo te plante bò larivyè Nil, depi anwo jouk nan lanbouchi, pral cheche. Van pral bwote yo ale, li p'ap kite anyen.
The meadows by the Nile, by the brink of the Nile, and all the sown fields of the Nile, will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.
8 Pechè yo pral plenn, moun ki te konn peche pwason ak zen nan larivyè a pral pran lapenn. Moun ki te konn voye privye nan larivyè a pral nan gwo chagren.
The fishermen will lament, and all those who fish in the Nile will mourn, and those who spread nets on the waters will languish.
9 Moun ki te konn fè bèl twal swa yo pral dekouraje. Sa ki te konn tise lenn yo, sa ki te konn tise bèl twal blan yo pral nan lafliksyon.
Moreover those who work in combed flax, and those who weave white cloth, will be confounded.
10 Bòs k'ap fè twal yo pral nan gwo tèt chaje. Moun k'ap travay yo menm pral nan gwo lapenn.
The pillars will be broken in pieces. All those who work for hire will be grieved in soul.
11 Chèf lavil Zoan yo, se yon bann moun sòt! Sa ki pi fò nan moun k'ap bay farawon an konsèy yo, se ranse y'ap ranse. Ki jan yo ka fè di wa a se pitit ansyen moun lespri ak pitit ansyen wa yo li ye?
The princes of Zoan are utterly foolish. The counsel of the wisest counselors of Pharaoh has become stupid. How do you say to Pharaoh, "I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?"
12 Farawon, kote moun lespri ou yo? Se pou yo ka di ou sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a gen lide fè peyi Lejip pase! Se pou yo ka fè ou konn sa!
Where then are your sages? And let them tell you now; and let them know what the LORD of hosts has purposed concerning Egypt.
13 Chèf lavil Zoan ak chèf lavil Menmfis yo, se yon bann moun sòt! Yo kite moun ap twonpe yo! Yo te la pou mennen peyi Lejip sou bon chemen. Yo lage l' nan bwa.
The princes of Zoan have become fools. The princes of Memphis are deceived. They have caused Egypt to go astray, who are the cornerstone of her tribes.
14 Seyè a fè tout moun nan peyi a pèdi tèt yo nèt! Sa ki rive? Peyi Lejip pèdi chemen l' nan tou sa l'ap fè, li tankou yon nonm sou k'ap glise tonbe nan sa l'ap vonmi an!
The LORD has mixed a spirit of perverseness in the midst of her; and they have caused Egypt to go astray in all of its works, like a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15 Nan peyi Lejip, pesonn, rich kou pòv, gwo kou piti, pa ka fè anyen pou peyi a ankò.
Neither shall there be for Egypt any work, which head or tail, palm branch or rush, may do.
16 Jou sa a, gason peyi Lejip yo ap tankou fanm: yo pral tranble, kè yo pral kase lè y'a wè Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ap leve men l' pou pini yo.
In that day the Egyptians will be like women. They will tremble and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which he shakes over them.
17 Peyi Jida a ap fè kè moun peyi Lejip yo sote. Chak fwa y'a nonmen non peyi Jida nan zòrèy yo, y'a pè, paske y'a chonje sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a te gen lide fè yo pase.
The land of Judah will become a terror to Egypt. Everyone to whom mention is made of it will be afraid, because of the plans of the LORD of hosts, which he determines against it.
18 Lè sa a, y'a gen senk lavil nan peyi Lejip kote moun va pale ebre. Moun la va pran non Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pou fè sèman. Yonn nan lavil sa yo va rele Lavil Solèy.
In that day, there will be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan, and swear loyalty to the LORD of hosts. One will be called the City of the Sun.
19 Lè sa a va gen yon lotèl pou Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a nan peyi Lejip. Sou fwontyè peyi a, y'ap kanpe yon gwo wòch y'ap mete apa pou Seyè a.
In that day, there will be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the LORD at its border.
20 Sa va sèvi yon mak pou fè konnen Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a kanpe la nan peyi Lejip la. Lè moun va konprann pou fè yo pase tray, y'a lapriyè Seyè a mande l' sekou. Seyè a va voye yon moun pou vin delivre yo. L'a pran defans yo, l'a sove yo.
It will be for a sign and for a witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to the LORD because of oppressors, and he will send them a savior and a defender, and he will deliver them.
21 Jou sa a, Seyè a va fè moun Lejip yo konnen ki moun li ye. Yo menm y'a rekonèt sa, y'a ofri bèt pou touye pou li, y'a ofri rekòt nan jaden yo ba li. Y'a fè Seyè a gwo pwomès. Lèfini, y'a kenbe pwomès yo.
The LORD will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know the LORD in that day. Yes, they will worship with sacrifice and offering, and will make vows to the LORD, and will perform them.
22 Seyè a gen pou l' pini moun Lejip yo. Men, l'a geri yo. Y'a tounen vin jwenn li. Seyè a va koute lè y'ap lapriyè nan pye l', l'a geri yo.
The LORD will strike Egypt, striking and healing. They will return to the LORD, and he will listen to their pleas, and will heal them.
23 Jou sa a, ap gen yon gwo wout k'ap soti peyi Lejip rive jouk nan peyi Lasiri. Moun peyi Lasiri va vwayaje al nan peyi Lejip, moun peyi Lejip va vwayaje al nan peyi Lasiri. Tou de peyi yo pral sèvi Seyè a.
In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria; and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
24 Lè sa a, peyi Izrayèl la va sou menm pye ak peyi Lejip ansanm ak peyi Lasiri: twa nasyon sa yo va yon benediksyon pou tout moun sou latè.
In that day, Israel will be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth;
25 Seyè a va beni yo, l'a di konsa: -benediksyon pou Lejip, pèp mwen an, pou Lasiri mwen te fè ak men mwen an, ak pou Izrayèl ki rele m' pa m' lan.
because the LORD of hosts has blessed them, saying, "Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance."
