< Ezayi 35 >

1 Dezè ak tè sèk pral kontan yon sèl kontan. Savann yo pral kontan tou, yo pral fleri.
The land that was desolate and impassable shall be glad, and the wilderness shall rejoice, and shall 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 shall bud forth and blossom, and shall rejoice with joy and praise: the glory of Libanus is given to it: the beauty of Carmel, and Saron, they shall 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 ye the feeble 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 revenge of recompense: God himself will come and will save you.
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 be unstopped.
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 a hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall be free: for waters are broken out in the desert, and streams in the wilderness.
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 that which was dry land, shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water. In the dens where dragons dwell before, shall rise up the verdure of the reed and the 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 a path and a way shall be there, and it shall be called the holy way: the unclean shall not pass over it, and this shall be unto you a straight way, so that fools shall not err therein.
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!
No lion shall be there, nor shall any mischievous beast go up by it, nor be found there: but they shall walk there that shall be delivered.
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 shall return, and shall come into Sion with praise, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
