Plenn 4
1 Gade jan bon lò pa klere ankò! Li chanje, li pèdi kalite li! Gade jan wòch Tanp yo gaye nan tout lari!
How! it is dimmed gold it is changed the gold fine they lie scattered stones of holiness at [the] head of all [the] streets.
2 Nan tan lontan nou pa ta bay moun peyi Siyon yo pou pi bon lò ki genyen. Gade! Koulye a, yo pa vo pase krich tè moun fè ak men.
[the] children of Zion precious who were weighed with pure gold how! they are considered to jars of earthenware [the] work of [the] hands of a potter.
3 Ata manman chat mawon bay pitit yo tete. Men, pèp mwen an mechan tankou otrich k'ap viv nan dezè. Yo pa pran swen pitit yo.
Also (jackals *Q(K)*) they draw out a breast they suckle young their [the] daughter of people my [has become] cruel (like ostriches *Q(K)*) in the wilderness.
4 Lang ti bebe yo kole nan fon bouch yo sitèlman yo swaf dlo. Timoun yo ap rele mande manje. Pa gen pesonn pou ba yo anyen!
It has cleaved [the] tongue of a suckling-child to (palate its *L(abh)*) by thirst children they have asked for bread [one who] breaks [it] not [belonged] to them.
5 Moun ki te konn manje bon manje gou ap tonbe faya nan lari. Moun ki te elve nan gran kay ap chache manje nan fatra.
The [ones] eating delicacies they are desolate in the streets the [ones] brought up on crimson they have embraced ash heaps.
6 Peche lavil Jerizalèm pi gwo pase peche lavil Sodòm, ki te rete konsa Bondye disparèt li.
And it has become great [the] iniquity of [the] daughter of people my more than [the] sin of Sodom which was overthrown like a moment and not they twisted on it hands.
7 Nazirit nou yo te san repwòch. Pi bon pase yo pa t' genyen. Yo te anfòm, yo te gwonèg. Yon bèl san wouj t'ap koule nan venn yo!
They were bright ones of high rank its more than snow they were dazzling more than milk they were red bone more than corals [was] sapphire polishing their.
8 Koulye a, se lonbraj yo ase ki la. Yo fini. Pesonn pa rekonèt yo nan lari. Po yo chèch tankou kòs bwa, yo tounen zo ak po.
It is dark more than soot appearance their not they are recognized in the streets it has shriveled skin their on bone their dry it has become like wood.
9 Moun ki mouri nan lagè pi bon pase moun ki mouri grangou. Y'ap depafini jouk yo mouri. Yo pa jwenn anyen pou yo manje.
Good they are [those] slain of a sword more than [those] slain of hunger who they they flow away pierced through from [the] produce of [the] field.
10 Manman ki te renmen pitit yo anpil, koulye a, yo kwit yo pou yo manje. Lè malè a tonbe sou pèp mwen an, se sa yo fè pou yo pa mouri grangou.
[the] hands of Women compassionate they have boiled own children their they have been for eating for them in [the] brokenness of [the] daughter of people my.
11 Seyè a fache nèt. Li limen yon sèl kalite dife nan lavil Siyon. Li boule l' ratè.
He has completed Yahweh rage his he has poured out [the] burning of anger his and he has kindled a fire in Zion and it has consumed foundations its.
12 Pesonn sou latè, pa menm wa peyi sou latè yo, pa t' vle kwè yon jou, moun ki pa vle wè pèp Bondye a ta antre nan pòtay lavil Jerizalèm!
Not they believed [the] kings of [the] earth (all *Q(K)*) [the] inhabitants of [the] world that he will go opponent and enemy in [the] gates of Jerusalem.
13 Men, tou sa rive paske pwofèt li yo ak prèt li yo te peche. Yo te lakòz anpil moun ki mache dwat pèdi lavi yo mal.
From [the] sins of prophets its [the] iniquities of priests its who shed in midst its [the] blood of righteous [people].
14 Y'ap mache nan lari tankou moun avèg. Yo bade ak san. Pesonn pa gen dwa manyen rad yo.
They wandered blind [people] in the streets they were defiled by the blood in not people were able people touched clothes their.
15 Kote yo pase moun ap rele: Wete kò nou la! Nou pa pwòp! Pa pwoche! Pa manyen m'! Se konsa y'ap plede kouri sot nan yon peyi al nan yon lòt. Pesonn pa vle resevwa yo.
Depart unclean people called out to them depart depart may not you touch for they fled also they wandered people said among the nations not they will increase to sojourn.
16 Seyè a pa vle wè yo ankò, se li menm ki gaye yo konsa. Li pa gen konsiderasyon ni pou pè yo ni pou chèf yo.
[the] presence of Yahweh it scattered them not he will repeat to pay attention to them [the] face of priests not they lifted up (and elders *Q(K)*) not they showed favor to.
17 Je nou wouj afòs nou kriye. N'ap tann yon sekou ki pa janm vini. M'ap veye tann yon nasyon ki pa ka fè anyen pou delivre nou.
(Yet we *Q(K)*) they failed eyes our to help our futility in watchtower our we watched to a nation [which] not it will save.
18 Lènmi ap veye kote nou prale. Nou pa menm gen dwa soti nan lari. Jou lanmò nou rive. Sa ki rete pou nou mouri a pa anyen.
They hunted steps our from walking in open places our it drew near end our they were completed days our for it had come end our.
19 Moun ki t'ap kouri dèyè nou yo te pi rapid pase malfini k'ap plonje dèyè poul. Y'ap kouri dèyè nou nan tout mòn yo. Yo tann pèlen pou nou nan tout dezè a.
Swift they were pursuers our more than [the] eagles of heaven on the mountains they hotly pursued us in the wilderness they lay in wait for us.
20 Moun Seyè a te chwazi a, li menm ki tout souf lavi nou, li menm nou te konprann ki ta ka toujou pwoteje nou pou lòt nasyon pa anvayi nou, yo pran l', yo mete l' nan prizon!
[the] breath of Nostrils our [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh he was captured in pits their whom we had said in shadow his we will live among the nations.
21 Nou menm, moun peyi Edon ki rete lavil Ouz, nou mèt fè kè nou kontan, nou mèt fè fèt! Tou pa nou dèyè, tande! Jou sa a, nou pral titibe toutouni nan tout lari.
Exult and rejoice O daughter of Edom ([who] dwells *Q(K)*) in [the] land of Uz also to you it will pass on a cup you will become drunk and you may strip yourself naked.
22 Nou menm, moun lavil Siyon, nou fin peye pou peche nou yo. Bondye ap sispann pini nou! Men, nou menm moun Edon, Seyè a pral pini nou pou peche nou yo. L'ap denonse tou sa nou fè ki mal.
It will finish iniquity your O daughter of Zion not he will increase to take into exile you he will punish iniquity your O daughter of Edom he will make known on sins your.
