< Ezayi 66 >

1 Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Syèl la, se fòtèy kote mwen chita a. Tè a, se ti ban pou m' lonje pye m'. Ki kalite kay nou ta ka bati pou mwen? Ki kote nou ta ka ban mwen pou m' poze kò m'?
Thus hath said the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is there a house that ye can build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
2 Se mwen menm ki fè tout bagay sa yo ak men mwen. Se pou mwen yo tout ye! Se Seyè a menm ki di sa. Moun ki fè m' plezi se moun ki pa gen lògèy nan kè yo, se moun ki règrèt sa yo fè ki mal, se moun ki gen krentif pou mwen lè m' pale.
For all these things hath my hand made, that all these things came into being, saith the Lord; but upon such a one will I look, upon the poor, and him who is of a contrite spirit, and who trembleth at my word.
3 Pèp la fè sa yo pito. Yo touye bèf pou mwen jòdi, denmen yo touye moun pou zidòl yo. Yo ofri ti mouton pou yo touye pou mwen jòdi, denmen yo kase kou chen pou zidòl. Yo fè ofrann grenn jaden yo jòdi pou mwen, denmen yo fè ofrann san kochon pou zidòl. Yo boule lansan sou lotèl mwen an pou m' pa janm bliye moun ki fè ofrann lan jòdi, denmen y'ap fè sèvis pou di Satan mèsi. Yo pran plezi nan fè zafè pa yo jan yo vle. Yo kontan fè vye bagay lèd y'ap fè yo.
He that slaughtereth the ox, slayeth a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, breaketh the neck of a dog; he that offereth a meat-offering, [offereth] swine's blood; he that burneth incense, blesseth an idol: yea, they have made choice of their own ways, and in their abominations doth their soul delight.
4 Mwen menm tou m'ap pran plezi m' aji ak yo menm jan yo aji a. M'ap fè malè yo pè rive yo a tonbe sou yo, paske mwen rele yo, pesonn pa reponn. Mwen pale yo, yo pa koute m'. Y'ap fè sa ki mal devan je m', yo pito fè sa ki p'ap fè m' plezi.
So will I also make choice of their misfortune, and what they dread will I bring upon them; because I called, and none did answer; I spoke, and they did not hear; and they did what is evil in my eyes, and that in which I delighted not did they choose.
5 Koute sa Seyè a di, nou menm ki gen krentif pou li lè li pale ak nou: Paske nou pa vire do ban mwen, gen moun menm ras ak nou ki pa vle wè nou, ki derefize mele ak nou. Y'ap di konsa: Se pou Seyè a fè wè pouvwa li, paske yo ta renmen wè jan nou kontan. Men se yo menm k'ap soti wont.
Hear the word of the Lord, ye that tremble at his word: Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for the sake of my name, said, “Let the Lord be glorified;” but he will appear to your joy, and they shall be made ashamed.
6 Koute! Gwo bri nou tande k'ap fèt nan lavil la, gwo vwa nou tande k'ap pale nan tanp lan, se bri Seyè a k'ap tire revanj li sou lènmi l' yo.
[There is] a voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, the voice of the Lord who rendereth recompense to his enemies.
7 Lavil Bondye a tankou yon fanm ki akouche anvan menm li gen tranche. Li gen tan fè yon ti gason anvan menm li santi doulè.
Before she had travailed she brought forth; before yet her pain was come, she was delivered of a man-child.
8 Ki moun ki janm tande koze konsa? Ki moun ki janm wè bagay konsa? Eske yon sèl jou kont pou fè tout yon nasyon? Eske lapoula yo ka fè tout yon nasyon? Mòn Siyon an p'ap soufri anpil anvan nasyon an fèt.
Who hath heard the like? who hath seen such things? shall a land be made to travail in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? that Zion hath travailed, also brought forth her children?
9 Eske mwen ka fè yon fanm kase lèzo, lèfini pou m' pa kite l' akouche? Eske mwen ka fè pitit la rive sou jou l' lèfini pou m' pa kite l' fèt? Se Bondye ou la menm ki di sa!
Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the Lord; or shall I who cause to bring forth, now prevent it? saith thy God.
10 Fè kè nou kontan ansanm ak lavil Jerizalèm. Fè fèt pou li, nou tout ki renmen l'! Se pou nou kontan ansanm avè l' koulye a, nou menm ki te nan lapenn pou li!
Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be delighted over her, all ye that love her; be highly glad with her, all ye that mourn for her.
11 Tankou yon ti bebe k'ap tete manman l' jouk vant li plen, tankou yon ti bebe k'ap kontan souse lèt manman l', nou pral jwenn pa nou nan bèl bagay m'ap fè pou lavil Jerizalèm.
In order that ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breast of her consolations; in order that ye may sip, and find pleasure from the abundance of her glory.
12 Paske, men sa Seyè a di: -Mwen pral ba li kè poze san rete. Richès nasyon yo pral kouvri l' tankou lè inondasyon dlo kouvri latè. Nou pral tankou ti bebe pou li: l'ap ban nou tete, l'a pote nou nan bra li, l'a mete nou sou jenou l' pou li jwe ak nou.
For thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will extend to her peace like a river, and like a rapid stream the glory of nations, that ye may suck: upon the arm shall ye be borne, and upon knees shall ye be dandled.
13 Menm jan yon manman konsole pitit li, se konsa m'ap konsole nou nan lavil Jerizalèm.
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and in Jerusalem shall ye be comforted.
14 Lè n'a wè sa, kè nou va kontan: sa va ban nou fòs ak kouraj ankò. Lè sa a, n'a konnen mwen menm, Seyè a, m'ap pwoteje sèvitè m' yo, men lènmi m' yo va konnen jan m' konn fache.
And ye shall see this, and your heart shall be glad, and your bones shall flourish like the grass; and then will be known the hand of the Lord on his servants, and he will be indignant toward his enemies.
15 Seyè a ap vin nan yon gwo dife. Li moute sou nwaj yon gwo tanpèt pou l' vin pini moun ki te fè l' fache yo, pou l' regle yo jan li te di l'ap regle yo a nan yon gwo boukan dife.
For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and his chariots will be like the storm-wind, to send forth his anger with fury, and his threatening with flames of fire.
16 Se avèk dife Seyè a pral jije, avèk nepe l' li pral regle tout moun ki koupab yo. Anpil moun pral mouri anba men l'.
For by fire will the Lord judge, and by his sword against all flesh: and many shall be the slain of the Lord.
17 Seyè a di ankò: -Talè konsa sa pral fini pou moun k'ap fè sèvis pou mete kò yo nan bon kondisyon anvan y'a l' fè pwosesyon pou zidòl nan jaden yo, pou moun k'ap manje vyann kochon, vyann sourit ak lòt kalite manje ki pa bon pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye.
They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves for the gardens, behind one tree in the midst, they who eat the flesh of the swine, and the abomination, and the mouse, together shall they perish, saith the Lord.
18 Mwen konnen sa y'ap fè, mwen konnen sa ki nan lide yo. Mwen menm, m'ap vin sanble pèp tout nasyon yo, pèp ki pale tout kalite lang sou latè. Y'a vini, y'a wè bèl pouvwa mwen.
And I, because of their works and their thoughts, will let it come to pass to gather all the nations and tongues; and they shall come, and shall see my glory.
19 M'a fè yo konnen se mwen menm k'ap pini yo. Men, m'ap sove kèk moun ladan yo, pou m' voye yo nan tout nasyon, nan tout peyi byen lwen ki poko janm tande non m' nan zòrèy yo, ki pa janm wè pouvwa mwen, nan peyi Lespay, nan peyi Libi, nan peyi Lidi, kote ki gen moun ki konn sèvi ak banza ak anpil ladrès, nan peyi Toubal ak nan peyi Lagrès. Yo pral fè moun tout nasyon yo konnen jan mwen gen pouvwa.
And I will display a sign on them, and I will send from them those that escape unto the nations, Tharshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, Thubal, and Javan, the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, and have not seen my glory; and they shall proclaim my glory among the nations.
20 Y'a pran tout frè parèy nou yo, y'a mennen yo tounen soti nan peyi sa yo, tankou yon ofrann pou mwen. Y'ap mennen yo tounen sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an, lavil Jerizalèm, sou chwal, sou milèt, sou chamo, nan kabwèt kouvri, nan cha, menm jan moun pèp Izrayèl yo konn pote grenn jaden pou ofri nan tanp lan nan veso yo mete nan bon kondisyon espre pou sa.
And they shall bring all your brethren out of all nations as an offering unto the Lord, upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon dromedaries, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel bring the offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.
21 M'a pran kèk moun nan moun sa yo pou fè travay prèt ak travay moun Levi yo. Se Seyè a ki di sa.
And of them also will I take for priests and for Levites, saith the Lord.
22 Menm jan lòt syèl ak lòt latè m'ap fè yo ap la pou lontan devan m', konsa tou pitit nou ak non nou ap la pou lontan. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall have permanence before me, saith the Lord, so shall exist permanently your seed and your name.
23 Pou chak fèt lalin nouvèl, pou chak jou repo, moun tout peyi va vin fè sèvis pou mwen isit lavil Jerizalèm. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to the other new moon, and from one sabbath to the other sabbath, shall all flesh come to prostrate themselves before me, saith the Lord.
24 Lè y'ap kite lavil la, y'a wè kadav moun ki te vire do ban mwen yo. Vè k'ap manje yo p'ap janm mouri, dife k'ap boule yo a p'ap janm tenyen. Tout moun sou latè pral gen kè plen lè y'a wè sa!
And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me; for their worm shall not die, nor shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorrence unto all flesh.
