< Ezayi 32 >
1 Yon jou, va gen yon wa k'ap gouvènen peyi a san patipri. Chèf yo va dirije peyi a jan sa dwe fèt.
Behold, a King shall reigne in iustice, and the princes shall rule in iudgement.
2 Yo chak pral tankou kote moun al kache pou move van, tankou kote moun al kache pou van tanpèt. Y'ap tankou yon sous dlo k'ap koule nan dezè, tankou yon kokenn wòch k'ap bay lonbray kote ki pa gen dlo.
And that man shall bee as an hiding place from the winde, and as a refuge for the tempest: as riuers of water in a drie place, and as the shadowe of a great rocke in a weary land.
3 Je tout moun va louvri pou yo wè sa k'ap pase. Zòrèy tout moun va louvri pou yo konnen sa k'ap fèt nan peyi a.
The eyes of the seeing shall not be shut, and the eares of them that heare, shall hearken.
4 Moun kè cho yo va pran san yo pou yo konprann anvan yo aji. Moun bege yo pral pale byen klè pou tout moun konprann.
And the heart of the foolish shall vnderstand knowledge, and the tongue of the stutters shalbe ready to speake distinctly.
5 P'ap gen moun k'ap asepte pran moun sòt pou moun debyen, ni bakoulou pou bon moun.
A nigard shall no more be called liberall, nor the churle riche.
6 Moun sòt yo ap plede di yon bann vye koze san sans. Y'ap fè move lide nan tèt yo. Konsa, y'ap fè bagay Bondye pa vle moun fè, y'ap bay manti sou Bondye. Yo p'ap janm bay moun ki grangou yon ti manje, yo p'ap janm bay moun ki swaf dlo yon ti gout dlo pou yo bwè.
But the nigarde will speake of nigardnesse, and his heart will worke iniquitie, and do wickedly, and speake falsely against the Lord, to make emptie the hungrie soule, and to cause the drinke of the thirstie to faile.
7 Bakoulou, se koken k'ap fè mechanste. L'ap fè move plan nan tèt li pou l' woule pòv malere yo anba manti, pou l' enpoze endijan yo jwenn jistis.
For the weapons of the churle are wicked: hee deuiseth wicked counsels, to vndoe the poore with lying words: and to speake against the poore in iudgement.
8 Men, bon moun, se toujou sa ki byen l'ap chache fè, li p'ap janm fè anyen ki pa sa.
But the liberall man will deuise of liberall things, and he will continue his liberalitie.
9 Nou menm medam k'ap viv alèz yo, leve non. Koute sa m'ap di! Nou menm medam ki san pwoblèm yo, louvri zòrèy nou tande sa m'ap di:
Rise vp, ye women that are at ease: heare my voyce, ye carelesse daughters: hearken to my wordes.
10 Bann paresèz, nan ennan ankò, nou pral nan kont traka nou, paske p'ap gen rezen pou nou keyi, p'ap gen rekòt rezen k'ap fèt.
Yee women, that are carelesse, shall be in feare aboue a yeere in dayes: for the vintage shall faile, and the gatherings shall come no more.
11 Bann byennerèz, nou pral nan ka! Bann paresèz, nou pral tranble! Wete rad sou nou, rete toutouni, mare ren nou ak ranyon,
Yee women, that are at ease, be astonied: feare, O yee carelesse women: put off the clothes: make bare, and girde sackcloth vpon the loynes.
12 paske nou pral nan lapenn lè n'a chonje bèl jaden ak bèl grap rezen nou yo, lè n'a wè se pikan ak raje k'ap pouse nan tout jaden pèp mwen an.
Men shall lament for the teates, euen for the pleasant fieldes, and for the fruitefull vine.
13 Nou pral kriye lè n'a chonje tout kay kote moun yo te konn gen kè kontan nan lavil ki te gen anpil aktivite a.
Vpon the lande of my people shall growe thornes and briers: yea, vpon all the houses of ioye in the citie of reioysing,
14 Kay wa a ap rete san pesonn ladan l'. Tout moun pral kouri kite kapital la. Bit mòn Ofèl la ak fò ki t'ap pwoteje l' la pral tounen savann pou tout tan. Se la bourik mawon pral pran plezi yo, se la kabrit ak mouton pral chache manje.
Because the palace shalbe forsaken, and the noise of the citie shalbe left: the towre and fortresse shalbe dennes for euer, and the delite of wilde asses, and a pasture for flockes,
15 Men, Bondye gen pou l' voye lespri li desann sou nou ankò. Dezè a va tounen yon bon venn tè. Jaden nou yo va bay bèl rekòt.
Vntill the Spirit be powred vpon vs from aboue, and the wildernes become a fruitfull fielde, and the plenteous fielde be counted as a forest.
16 Toupatou nan peyi a, nan dezè a kou nan jaden yo, p'ap gen lenjistis, ni patipri.
And iudgement shall dwel in the desert, and iustice shall remaine in the fruitfull fielde.
17 Paske tout moun ap fè sa ki dwat, y'a viv ak kè poze, san danje ni malè pou tout tan.
And the worke of iustice shall bee peace, euen the worke of iustice and quietnesse, and assurance for euer.
18 Pèp Bondye a va rete lakay yo ak kè poze, san danje. Yo p'ap gen pwoblèm.
And my people shall dwell in the tabernacle of peace, and in sure dwellings, and in safe resting places.
19 Men lagrèl pral tonbe sou gwo rakbwa a. Yo pral kraze lavil la.
When it haileth, it shall fall on the forest, and the citie shall be set in the lowe place.
20 Ala kontan n'a kontan jwenn kont dlo nou pou fè jaden! Lè sa a, nou p'ap bezwen mete bèf ak bourik nou yo nan kòd ankò!
Blessed are ye that sowe vpon all waters, and driue thither the feete of the oxe and the asse.
