Ezayi 7
1 Lè sa a, se wa Akaz, pitit gason Jotam, pitit pitit gason Ozyas, ki t'ap gouvènen nan peyi Jida. Rezen, wa peyi Siri, ak Pekak, pitit Remalya, wa peyi Izrayèl, moute al atake lavil Jerizalèm. Men, yo pa t' ka pran l'.
And it cometh to pass in the days of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah, king of Judah, gone up hath Rezin king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, to Jerusalem, to battle against it, and he is not able to fight against it.
2 Yo pote nouvèl la bay wa peyi Jida a ansanm ak tout fanmi l'. Yo di l': -Lame peyi Siri a gen tan anvayi peyi Efrayim. Wa Akaz ansanm ak tout pèp la te sitèlman pè yo t'ap tranble tankou fèy bwa lè van ap soufle.
And it is declared to the house of David, saying, 'Aram hath been led towards Ephraim,' And his heart and the heart of his people is moved, like the moving of trees of a forest by the presence of wind.
3 Seyè a di Ezayi konsa: -Pran Chea-Jachoub, pitit gason ou lan, avè ou. Al kontre wa Akaz. W'a jwenn li sou wout ap moute bò kote yo konn lave twal ki fèk tenn yo, nan direksyon kannal ki bay dlo nan rezèvwa anwo lavil la.
And Jehovah saith unto Isaiah, 'Go forth, I pray thee, to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shear-Jashub thy son, unto the end of the conduit of the upper pool, unto the highway of the fuller's field,
4 W'a di l' pou l' fè atansyon pou l' pa pèdi tèt li. Li pa bezwen pè. Li pa bezwen gen kè sote pou de ti bout bwa dife k'ap fè lafimen, ki vle di pou wa Rezen, moun peyi Siri a, ak pou wa Pekaz, pitit Remalya a, k'ap fè kòlè.
and thou hast said unto him: 'Take heed, and be quiet, fear not, And let not thy heart be timid, Because of these two tails of smoking brands, For the fierceness of the anger of Rezin and Aram, And the son of Remaliah.
5 Moun peyi Siri yo ansanm ak moun Efrayim yo ak pitit Remalya a ap fè konplo sou do ou.
Because that Aram counselled against thee evil, Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying:
6 Yo di y'ap moute atake peyi Jida a. Yo pral kraponnen moun yo, yo pral fè kèk moun nan peyi a pran pozisyon pou yo pou yo ka mete men sou peyi a. Apre sa, yo pral pran pitit gason Tableyèl la, y'ap nonmen l' wa pou gouvènen peyi a.
We go up into Judah, and we vex it, And we rend it unto ourselves, And we cause a king to reign in its midst — The son of Tabeal.
7 Enben! Men sa mwen menm, Seyè ki sèl mèt la, mwen di: Sa p'ap mache! Sa p'ap pase konsa!
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: It doth not stand, nor shall it be!
8 Poukisa? Lavil Damas se kapital peyi Siri. Rezen se wa lavil Damas. Pou pèp peyi Izrayèl la menm, m' pa ba l' swasannsenkan ankò, peyi yo a ap fin kraze, yo p'ap yon nasyon ankò.
For the head of Aram [is] Damascus, And the head of Damascus [is] Rezin, And within sixty and five years Is Ephraim broken from [being] a people.
9 Lavil Samari se kapital peyi Izrayèl la. Pekak, pitit gason Remalya a, se wa lavil Samari. Si nou pa kenbe konfyans nou fèm nan Bondye, nou menm tou nou p'ap chape.
And the head of Ephraim [is] Samaria, And the head of Samaria [is] the son of Remaliah. If ye do not give credence, Surely ye are not stedfast.'
10 Seyè a voye yon lòt komisyon bay wa Akaz. Li di l' konsa:
And Jehovah addeth to speak unto Ahaz, saying:
11 -Mande Seyè a, Bondye ou la, pou li ba ou yon siy. Se ka yon siy ki soti anba tè kote mò yo ye a, se ka yon siy ki soti anwo nan syèl la. (Sheol h7585)
'Ask for thee a sign from Jehovah thy God, Make deep the request, or make [it] high upwards.' (Sheol h7585)
12 Akaz reponn: -Mwen p'ap mande Seyè a anyen. Mwen p'ap sonde l'.
And Ahaz saith, 'I do not ask nor try Jehovah.'
13 Lè sa a, Ezayi di konsa: -Koute non, moun fanmi David yo! Sa pa kont nou toujou? Jan nou fè moun bouke ak nou pou koulye a nou soti pou nou fè Bondye mwen an bouke ak nou tou?
And he saith, 'Hear, I pray you, O house of David, Is it a little thing for you to weary men, That ye weary also my God?
14 Enben! Se Seyè a menm ki pral ban nou yon siy. Men li: Jenn tifi ki ansent lan pral fè yon pitit gason, l'a rele l' Emannwèl (ki vle di: Bondye avèk nou).
Therefore the Lord Himself giveth to you a sign, Lo, the Virgin is conceiving, And is bringing forth a son, And hath called his name Immanuel,
15 Se lèt ak siwo myèl ase l'a manje jouk l'a rive laj pou l' konnen sa ki mal ak sa ki byen.
Butter and honey he doth eat, When he knoweth to refuse evil, and to fix on good.
16 Men, anvan menm ti gason an rive konnen sa ki byen ak sa ki mal, peyi de wa sa yo k'ap fè ou pè a ap rete konsa san pyès moun ladan yo.
For before the youth doth know To refuse evil, and to fix on good, Forsaken is the land thou art vexed with, because of her two kings.
17 Seyè a pral fè yon malè sou ou, sou pèp la ak sou tout fanmi David, granpapa ou la, yon malè ki pral pi mal pase lè moun Efrayim yo te separe ak moun Jida yo. L'ap fè wa peyi Lasiri a parèt sou nou.
Jehovah bringeth on thee, and on thy people, And on the house of thy father, Days that have not come, Even from the day of the turning aside of Ephraim from Judah, By the king of Asshur.
18 Lè sa a, Seyè a pral soufle pou moun peyi Lejip yo soti tankou mouch byen lwen, bò dlo larivyè Nil la. L'ap rele moun peyi Lasiri yo pou yo soti tankou lesen myèl lakay yo.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Jehovah doth hiss for a fly that [is] in the extremity of the brooks of Egypt, And for a bee that [is] in the land of Asshur.
19 Yo pral vin plen falèz yo ak tout twou wòch yo. Yo pral toupatou nan tout raje, nan tout jaden zèb.
And they have come, and rested all of them in the desolate valleys, And in holes of the rocks, and on all the thorns, And on all the commendable things.
20 Jou sa a, Seyè a ap fè wa peyi Lasiri a soti lòt bò larivyè Lefrat. Li va tankou yon razwa. L'ap vini, l'ap koupe tout bab ou, tout cheve nan tèt ou ak tout plim sou kò ou.
In that day doth the Lord shave, By a razor that is hired beyond the river, By the king of Asshur, The head, and the hair of the feet, Yea, also the beard it consumeth.
21 Jou sa a, chak moun va gen yon gazèl bèf ak de mouton pou yo chak.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, A man keepeth alive a heifer of the herd, And two of the flock,
22 Lè sa a, bèt yo va bay lèt an kantite, tout moun va bwè lèt plen vant yo. Wi, moun ki va chape anba lanmò nan peyi a va bwè lèt ak siwo myèl ase.
And it hath come to pass, From the abundance of the yielding of milk he eateth butter, For butter and honey doth every one eat Who is left in the heart of the land.
23 Jou sa a, kote ki te gen mil (1.000) pye rezen, epi ki te vo mil (1.000) pyès an ajan va plen pikan ak raje.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Every place where there are a thousand vines, At a thousand silverlings, Is for briers and for thorns.
24 Si yon moun pa gen zam nan men l', li p'ap ka pase la. Wi, pikan ak raje pral kouvri tout peyi a.
With arrows and with bow he cometh thither, Because all the land is brier and thorn.
25 Nan tout mòn kote yo te konn travay ak wou pou plante, pesonn p'ap ka ale la ankò poutèt pikan ak raje. Se bèf y'a lage la, se la mouton yo pral manje.
And all the hills that with a mattock are kept in order, Thither cometh not the fear of brier and thorn, And it hath been for the sending forth of ox, And for the treading of sheep!'
