Ezayi 35
1 Dezè ak tè sèk pral kontan yon sèl kontan. Savann yo pral kontan tou, yo pral fleri.
Be glad, you thirsty desert: let the wilderness exult, and flower as the lily.
2 Dezè pral kouvri ak flè, yo pral fè fèt. Yo pral chante. Yo pral gen gwo pyebwa tankou mòn Liban. Yo pral plen bèl pyebwa tankou mòn Kamèl ak mòn Sawon. Tout moun va wè gwo pouvwa Seyè a. Y'a wè bèl bagay Bondye nou an fè.
And the desert places of Jordan shall blossom and rejoice; the glory of Libanus has been given to it, and the honour of Carmel; and my people shall see the glory of the Lord, and the majesty of God.
3 Ankouraje moun ki febli yo! Soutni moun ki gen jenou yo ap tranble!
Be strong, you relaxed hands and palsied knees.
4 Pale ak moun ki dekouraje yo. Di yo konsa: Pran kouraj! Pa pè! Men Bondye nou an ap vini! Li pral tire revanj sou lènmi nou yo, li pral fè yo peye sa yo fè. Se limenm menm ki pral fè sa pou l' ka delivre nou.
Comfort one another, you faint-hearted; be strong, fear not; behold, our God renders judgement, and he will render [it]; he will come and save us.
5 Je avèg yo pral louvri. Zòrèy moun soudè yo pral debouche.
Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall hear.
6 Moun enfim nan pye yo pral sote ponpe tankou kabrit. Lang bèbè yo pral lage. Yo pral chante. Sous dlo pral pete toupatou nan tout dezè. Dlo pral koule nan tout savann.
Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the stammerers shall speak plainly; for water has burst forth in the desert, and a channel [of water] in a thirsty land.
7 Kote sab la te cho a pral tounen yon letan. Tè sèk yo pral plen sous dlo. Kote chen mawon te konn rete a se la wozo ak jon pral pouse an kantite.
And the dry land shall become pools, and a fountain of water shall [be poured] into the thirsty land; there shall there be a joy of birds, ready habitations and marshes.
8 Pral gen yon bèl wout pase la. Y'ap rele l': Wout Bondye a! Moun k'ap fè sa ki mal p'ap pase nan wout sa a. Se va sèlman pou moun ki mache dwat yo. Wi, pou yo ase. Ankenn bakoulou p'ap ka detounen moun k'ap swiv chemen sa a.
There shall be there a pure way, and it shall be called a holy way; and there shall not pass by there any unclean person, neither shall there be there an unclean way; but the dispersed shall walk on it, and they shall not go astray.
9 P'ap gen lyon sou wout sa a. P'ap gen bèt bwa k'ap pase la. Se moun Seyè a delivre ase ki pral vwayaje sou li. P'ap gen lòt moun ankò!
And there shall be no lion there, neither shall any evil beast go up upon it, nor at all be found there; but the redeemed and gathered on the Lord's behalf, shall walk in it,
10 Moun Seyè a te delivre yo pral tounen. Y'ap rive lavil Siyon ak chante nan bouch yo, ak kè kontan make sou figi yo. Tout moun pral kontan, yo pral fè fèt. Moun p'ap nan lapenn. Ou p'ap tande plenyen ankò!
and shall return, and come to Sion with joy, and everlasting joy [shall be] over their head; for on their head [shall be] praise and exultation, and joy shall take possession of them: sorrow and pain, and groaning have fled away.
