Ezayi 60

1 Leve kanpe! Ou pral klere tankou solèy. Pouvwa Seyè a pral klere sou ou.

“Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the LORD’s glory has risen on you!

2 Lòt nasyon yo nan fènwa, yon nwaj kouvri lòt pèp yo. Men limyè Seyè a pral leve sou nou! Pouvwa li pral parèt sou nou!

For behold, darkness will cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the LORD will arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.

3 Nasyon yo pral kouri vin nan limyè nou an. Tout wa yo pral kouri vin nan klète jou k'ap leve pou nou an.

Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.

4 Voye je nou toupatou bò kote nou, gade sa k'ap rive! Tout moun pa nou yo ap sanble, y'ap tounen lakay yo. Pitit gason nou yo ap soti byen lwen. Moun ap pote pitit fi nou yo tankou timoun chita sou ren yo.

“Lift up your eyes all around, and see: they all gather themselves together. They come to you. Your sons will come from far away, and your daughters will be carried in arms.

5 Lè n'a wè sa, n'a kontan nèt ale! Kè nou pral bat, nou p'ap konn kote pou n' mete kò nou! Y'ap pote richès nasyon yo ban nou. Y'ap soti lòt bò lanmè, y'ap vin jwenn nou.

Then you shall see and be radiant, and your heart will thrill and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you. The wealth of the nations will come to you.

6 Y'ap ban nou kantite chamo ki soti peyi Madyan ak peyi Efa. Nou p'ap konnen kote pou n' mete yo. Moun ap soti peyi Saba, chaje lò ak lansan. Y'ap pwonmennen fè lwanj Seyè a toupatou.

A multitude of camels will cover you, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah. All from Sheba will come. They will bring gold and frankincense, and will proclaim the praises of the LORD.

7 Tout mouton ak kabrit peyi Keda yo ap sanble lakay nou. N'a gen belye mouton peyi Nebayòt yo pou fè sèvis. N'a ofri yo pou boule sou lotèl mwen an. Sa va fè m' plezi. Seyè a va fè kay kote fòtèy li ye a vin byen bèl ankò.

All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered together to you. The rams of Nebaioth will serve you. They will be accepted as offerings on my altar; and I will beautify my glorious house.

8 Ki tout moun sa yo? Y'ap plane tankou yon nwaj nan syèl la, tankou yon bann pijon k'ap tounen vin nan kalòj yo?

“Who are these who fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?

9 Se yon bann bato k'ap soti byen lwen, bato peyi Tasis yo devan. Y'ap mennen moun pèp Bondye a tounen lakay yo. Y'ap pote ajan ak lò ak yo an kantite, pou sa sèvi yon lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Paske Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ki yon Bondye apa, te fè bèl bagay pou pèp li a.

Surely the islands will wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring your sons from far away, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD your God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because he has glorified you.

10 Seyè a pale ak lavil Jerizalèm, li di l' konsa: -Se moun lòt nasyon ki pral rebati miray nou yo! Se wa yo ki pral sèvi nou domestik. Nan kòlè mwen, mwen te pini nou. Men, mwen gen pitye pou nou paske mwen gen bon kè.

“Foreigners will build up your walls, and their kings will serve you; for in my wrath I struck you, but in my favor I have had mercy on you.

11 Pòtay nou yo ap rete louvri lajounen kou lannwit. Yo p'ap janm fèmen, pou wa lòt nasyon yo ka pote tout richès peyi yo lakay nou.

Your gates also shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night, that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations, and their kings led captive.

12 Paske y'ap detwi tout nasyon ak tout wa ki pa vle sèvi nou yo. Y'ap kraze peyi sa yo nèt ale.

For that nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yes, those nations shall be utterly wasted.

13 Y'a pote pi bèl pyebwa nan peyi Liban an, pichpen, pye sèd ak bwadòm, lakay nou pou dekore tanp ki apa pou mwen an, pou anbeli kote m' rete a.

“The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, the cypress tree, the pine, and the box tree together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.

14 Pitit moun ki t'ap maltrete nou yo va vin jwenn nou tèt bese. Tout moun ki t'ap pase nou nan betiz pral ajenou nan pye nou. Y'a rele nou lavil Seyè a, Mòn Siyon ki pou Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki yon Bondye apa.

The sons of those who afflicted you will come bowing to you; and all those who despised you will bow themselves down at the soles of your feet. They will call you the LORD’s City, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

15 Mwen p'ap vire do ban nou ankò. Yo p'ap rayi nou. Nou p'ap rete san pesonn pou vizite nou. M'ap fè moun nou yo toujou kontan wè nou. Y'a fè fèt de tit an tit.

“Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, so that no one passed through you, I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.

16 Lòt nasyon yo ansanm ak wa yo va pran swen nou tankou yon nouris k'ap bay pitit li tete. Lè sa a n'a konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki sove nou. Se Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki delivre nou.

You will also drink the milk of the nations, and will nurse from royal breasts. Then you will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

17 M'a fè yo pote lò pou nou nan plas kwiv. M'a fè yo pote ajan pou nou nan plas fè. N'a gen kwiv nan plas bwa, n'a gen fè nan plas wòch. Nan plas chèf ki t'ap peze nou yo, m'a mete chèf k'ap fè nou viv ak kè poze. Nan plas chèf ki t'ap souse nou yo, m'a mete chèf k'ap fè sa ki dwat.

For bronze I will bring gold; for iron I will bring silver; for wood, bronze, and for stones, iron. I will also make peace your governor, and righteousness your ruler.

18 Yo p'ap tande moun fè mechanste nan peyi a ankò. Moun p'ap devalize peyi a ankò, ni moun p'ap kraze l'. M'ap sèvi nou ranpa, se mwen menm k'ap pwoteje nou. M'ap sèvi nou pòtay, n'a fè lwanj mwen.

Violence shall no more be heard in your land, nor desolation or destruction within your borders; but you will call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise.

19 Se pa solèy la ki pral klere nou lajounen. Ni nou p'ap bezwen klète lalin lan pou klere nou lannwit. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki pral sèvi nou limyè pou tout tan. Se Bondye nou an ki pral leve tèt nou.

The sun will be no more your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon give light to you, but the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.

20 Solèy nou an p'ap janm kouche ankò. Lalin nou an p'ap janm disparèt. Se Seyè a menm ki pral sèvi nou limyè pou tout tan. Jou lafliksyon nou yo fini.

Your sun will not go down any more, nor will your moon withdraw itself; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning will end.

21 Tout moun nan pèp nou an va fè sa ki dwat. Y'a rete nan peyi a pou tout tan. Tankou kreyòl jaden mwen, se mwen ki plante yo, se mwen ki fè yo ak men mwen, pou m' ka fè tout moun wè pouvwa mwen.

Then your people will all be righteous. They will inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

22 Fanmi ki pi piti nan mitan nou an pral gen mil (1.000) moun. Fanmi ki pa vo anyen an pral tounen yon gwo nasyon. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki p'ap mize fè sa, lè lè a va rive.

The little one will become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation. I, the LORD, will do this quickly in its time.”
