Revelasyon 12
1 Yon gwo siy parèt nan sièl la: se te yon fanm ki te vlope nan solèy la tankou nan yon rad. Lalin lan te anba pie li. Li te gen douz zetwal kouwonnen tèt li.
A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
2 Li te prèt pou l' te akouche: soufrans ak doulè tranche t'ap fè l' rele.
She was with child. She cried out in pain, laboring to give birth.
3 Yon lòt siy te parèt nan sièl la tou: se te yon gwo dragon wouj. Li te gen sèt tèt ak dis kòn, ak yon kouwòn sou chak tèt li yo.
Another sign was seen in heaven. Behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
4 Sou chak twa zetwal ki nan sièl la, li pran yonn li rache l' ak ke l', li voye l' jete sou latè. Li te kanpe la devan fanm ki tapral akouche a, pou l' te ka devore ti pitit la kou l' fèt.
His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
5 Fanm lan fè yon ti pitit gason ki gen pou gouvènen tout nasyon yo ak yon baton fè. Men, yo pran ti pitit la, yo mennen l' bò kot Bondye, bò kot fòtèy la.
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. Her child was caught up to God and to his throne.
6 Fanm lan menm kouri ale nan dezè a, kote Bondye te pare yon plas pou yo te ba l' manje pandan mildesanswasant (1.260) jou.
The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand two hundred sixty days.
7 Lè sa a, yon sèl batay pete nan sièl la: Michèl ak zanj li yo pran goumen ak dragon an. Dragon an menm te gen zanj pa l' yo avè l' pou goumen ak Michèl.
There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the dragon. The dragon and his angels made war.
8 Men, dragon an pèdi batay la, yo pa ba l' dwa rete nan sièl la ankò, ni li menm, ni zanj li yo.
They didn’t prevail. No place was found for them any more in heaven.
9 Yo jete gwo dragon an deyò. Se li menm, sèpan ki la depi lontan an, li menm yo rele diab la osinon Satan, k'ap plede twonpe tout moun. Yo voye l' jete sou latè ansanm ak tout zanj li yo.
The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
10 Apre sa, mwen tande yon gwo vwa nan sièl la ki t'ap di: Koulye a, Bondye pral vin delivre nou. Koulye a Bondye fè wè li gen pouvwa, se li ki sèl Mèt! Koulye a, Kris li a fè wè otorite li. Paske, moun ki t'ap plede akize frè nou yo, moun ki te kanpe la devan Bondye, lajounen kou lannwit, ap pote plent pou yo a, yo mete l' deyò nan sièl la.
I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Messiah has come; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
11 Frè nou yo goumen ak li jouk yo gen batay la, gremesi san ti Mouton an ki te koule ak verite yo t'ap pibliye a: yo pa t' renmen lavi yo jouk pou yo ta pè lanmò.
They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life, even to death.
12 Se poutèt sa, fè kè n' kontan, nou menm sièl ak tout moun ki rete nan sièl la. Men, malè pou latè ak lanmè, paske Satan desann sou nou. Li move anpil, paske li konnen pa rete l' anpil tan ankò.
Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time.”
13 Lè dragon an wè se tout bon yo te jete l' sou latè, li pran kouri dèyè fanm ki te fè pitit gason an.
When the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
14 Men, yo bay fanm lan de gwo zèl malfini pou l' te ka vole ale nan plas li nan dezè a, byen lwen sèpan an. Se la yo ba l' manje pandan twazan sis mwa.
Two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, so that she might be nourished for a time, times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 Lè sa a, sèpan an louvri bouch li, li konmanse vonmi dlo. Dlo a fè yon gwo larivyè ki kouri dèyè fanm lan pou pote l' ale.
The serpent spewed water out of his mouth after the woman like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.
16 Men, latè vin bay fanm lan konkou, li louvri bouch li, li vale tout dlo ki t'ap soti nan bouch dragon an.
The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon spewed out of his mouth.
17 (17-18) Se pa ti move dragon an te move sou fanm lan. li al goumen avèk lòt pitit fanm lan, sa vle di ak tout moun k'ap obeyi kòmandman Bondye yo, k'ap kenbe fèm nan verite Jezi te fè nou konnen an. Apre sa, dragon an kanpe bò lanmè a.
The dragon grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep God’s commandments and hold Yeshua’s testimony.
