Ezayi 35
1 Dezè ak tè sèk pral kontan yon sèl kontan. Savann yo pral kontan tou, yo pral fleri.
The desolate and impassable land will rejoice, and the place of solitude will exult, and it will flourish like 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.
It will spring up and blossom, and it will exult with rejoicing and praising. The glory of Lebanon has been given to it, with the beauty of Carmel and Sharon. These will see the glory of the Lord and the beauty of our God.
3 Ankouraje moun ki febli yo! Soutni moun ki gen jenou yo ap tranble!
Strengthen the lax hands, and confirm the weak 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.
Say to the fainthearted: “Take courage and fear not! Behold, your God will bring the vindication of retribution. God himself will arrive to save you.”
5 Je avèg yo pral louvri. Zòrèy moun soudè yo pral debouche.
Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will be cleared.
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 the disabled will leap like a buck, and the tongue of the mute will be untied. For the waters have burst forth in the desert, and torrents in solitary places.
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 land that was dry will have a pond, and the thirsty land will have fountains of water. In the hollows where the serpents lived before, there will rise up the greenery of reed and bulrush.
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.
And there shall be a path and a road in that place. And it will be called the Holy Way. The defiled will not pass through it. For this will be an upright path for you, so much so that the foolish will not wander along it.
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!
There will be no lions in that place, and harmful wild animals will neither climb up to it, nor be found there. Only those who have been freed will walk in that place.
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 the redeemed of the Lord will be converted, and they will return to Zion with praising. And everlasting joy will be upon their heads. They will obtain gladness and rejoicing. For pain and sorrow will flee away.
