Ezayi 52
1 Leve non, mòn Siyon! Leve non! Mete kouraj ou sou ou! Mete pi bèl rad ou sou ou, ou menm Jerizalèm, lavil Bondye a! Paske moun lòt nasyon yo, ki pa pote mak kontra Bondye a, ki pa nan kondisyon pou sèvi Bondye, p'ap janm mete pye lakay ou ankò.
Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion, Put on the garments of your beauty, Jerusalem—the Holy City; For the uncircumcised and unclean no longer enter into you again.
2 Ou menm lavil Jerizalèm ki nan prizon, souke pousyè ki sou ou, leve atè a, chita sou fòtèy ou! Wete chenn yo te pase nan kou ou yo, ou menm mòn Siyon ki te nan prizon!
Shake yourself from dust, arise, sit, O Jerusalem, Bands of your neck have loosed themselves, O captive daughter of Zion.
3 Men sa Seyè a di pèp li a. -Yo pa t' bay lajan pou achte nou lè nou te tounen esklav. Yo p'ap bay lajan non plis pou delivre nou lè y'a lage nou.
For thus said YHWH: “You have been sold for nothing, And you are redeemed without money.”
4 Men sa Seyè a, Bondye a, di: -Nan tan lontan, pèp mwen an te desann al rete nan peyi Lejip. Apre sa, Lasiri fè yo pase kont mizè yo pou anyen.
For thus said Lord YHWH: “My people went down at first To Egypt to sojourn there, And Asshur—he has oppressed it for nothing.
5 Koulye a, sa pou m' fè la a? Se Seyè a menm k'ap di sa. Yo pran pèp mwen an, yo depòte yo pou anyen. Moun k'ap kraze yo a ap pale fò, y'ap fè grandizè. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa. Epi tout lajounen, san rete y'ap trennen non m' nan labou.
And now, what [have] I here,” A declaration of YHWH, “That My people are taken for nothing? Its rulers cause howling,” A declaration of YHWH, “And My Name is continually despised all the day.
6 Men jou sa a, pèp mwen an va rekonèt se mwen menm Bondye, ki pale ak nou! Men mwen!
Therefore My people know My Name, Therefore, in that day, Surely I [am] He who is speaking, behold Me.”
7 Ala bèl sa bèl lè ou wè sou mòn yo mesaje a k'ap kouri pote bon nouvèl k'ap bay kè poze a! L'ap fè konnen delivrans Bondye a. L'ap di moun Siyon yo: Se Bondye ou la k'ap gouvènen!
How lovely on the mountains, Have been the feet of one proclaiming tidings, Sounding peace, proclaiming good tidings, Sounding salvation, Saying to Zion, “Your God has reigned.”
8 Faksyonnè ou yo ap rele. Y'ap rele ansanm tèlman yo kontan. Y'ap wè, se ak pwòp je yo y'a wè Seyè a k'ap tounen sou mòn Siyon an!
The voice of your watchmen! They have lifted up the voice, together they cry aloud, Because they see eye to eye, In YHWH’s turning back [to] Zion.
9 Pete rele, fè fèt ansanm, nou menm vye miray mazi lavil Jerizalèm yo! Paske Seyè a bay pèp li a kouraj ankò, li delivre lavil Jerizalèm.
Break forth, sing together, O ruins of Jerusalem, For YHWH has comforted His people, He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 Seyè a fè tout nasyon yo wè fòs kouraj li ki apa nèt la. Toupatou sou latè yo wè jan Bondye nou an ap delivre pèp li a.
YHWH has made His holy arm bare Before the eyes of all the nations, And all the ends of the earth have seen The salvation of our God.
11 Wete kò nou nan lavil Babilòn! Wete kò nou! Pati ale! Pa manyen anyen nou pa dwe manyen! Wete kò nou nan mitan lavil la. Mete nou nan kondisyon pou nou fè sèvis pou Bondye, nou menm k'ap pote veso ki apa pou sèvis Seyè a.
Turn aside, turn aside, go out from there, Do not touch the unclean, Go out from her midst, Be pure, who are carrying the weapons of YHWH.
12 Fwa sa a, nou pa bezwen prese kouri ale. Nou p'ap fè tankou moun k'ap kouri chape poul yo. Paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap pran devan nou. Se li menm tou, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, k'ap mache dèyè pou pwoteje nou.
For you do not go out in haste, Indeed, you do not go on with flight, For YHWH [is] going before you, And the God of Israel [is] gathering you!
13 Seyè a di: -Men li, sèvitè m' lan va wè tout travay li ap mache byen! L'a vin grannèg. Moun va konsidere l' anpil. Y'a pote l' anlè!
“Behold, My Servant acts wisely, He is high, and has been lifted up, And has been very high.”
14 Menm jan anpil moun te pran sezisman lè yo te wè l', sitèlman li te defigire, sitèlman figi l' pa t' sanble menm ak figi moun,
As many have been astonished at You (His appearance so marred by man, And His form by sons of men),
15 konsa tou, anpil nasyon va kontan lè y'a wè l' fwa sa a. Wa yo va rete bouch be devan li sitèlman y'a sezi. Paske y'a wè bagay moun pa t' janm rakonte yo anvan sa, y'a konprann bagay yo pa t' janm tande anvan.
So He sprinkles many nations. Kings shut their mouth concerning Him, For that which was not recounted to them they have seen, And that which they had not heard they have understood!
