Revelasyon 21
1 Apre sa, mwen wè yon lòt sièl ak yon lòt latè. Premie sièl la ak premie latè a te disparèt. pa t' gen okenn lanmè ankò.
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and the sea is no more.
2 Apre sa, mwen wè lavil Bondye a, lòt Jerizalèm nèf lan, ki t'ap desann soti bò kot Bondye ye nan sièl la. Li te byen abiye, li te pare tankou yon lamarye ki pral kontre fiyanse li.
And I saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband.
3 Mwen tande yon vwa ki t'ap soti bò fòtèy la, li t'ap di byen fò: Koulye a, kay Bondye a se nan mitan moun l'ap ye. L'ap rete nan mitan yo, lèzòm ap yon pèp pou li. Se Bondye menm k'ap viv avèk yo, li va Bondye pou yo.
And I heard a loud voice out of the throne, crying. "Behold, God’s tent is with men, And he will tent with them, And they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them,
4 Li gen pou l' cheche tout dlo nan je yo. p'ap gen lanmò ankò, yo p'ap nan lapenn ankò, yo p'ap janm plenyen ankò, yo p'ap janm soufri ankò. Tout vie bagay sa yo pral disparèt.
And he will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more, Nor will there be mourning, Nor crying, nor pain any more. Because the first things have passed away."
5 Lè sa a, moun ki te chita sou fòtèy la di: Koulye a, mwen fè tout bagay vin nèf. Apre sa li di mwen: Ou mèt ekri sa, paske pawòl mwen se pawòl ki vre, pawòl tout moun dwe kwè.
And He who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." And He said to me, "Write this, for these words are trustworthy and genuine."
6 Apre sa li di ankò: Bon. Tout bagay fin fèt. Mwen se A ak Z, mwen se konmansman, mwen se finisman. Si yon moun swaf dlo, m'a ba li bwè dlo gratis nan sous dlo ki bay lavi a.
He also said. "It has now come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega, The Beginning and the End. To him who thirsts I will freely give Of the spring of the Water of life.
7 Se sa moun ki va genyen batay la va resevwa nan men m'. M'a va Bondye yo, y'a va pitit mwen.
He who overcomes will inherit these, And I will be his God, And he shall be my son.
9 Yonn nan sèt zanj ki te kenbe sèt gode plen ak sèt dènye kalamite yo vin di mwen: Vini non. Mwen pral moutre ou lamarye a, fiyanse ti Mouton an.
And there came to me one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the last plagues, and he spoke to me, saying. "Come hither! I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife."
10 Nan vizyon an, mwen wè zanj lan mennen m' sou tèt yon mòn byen wo. Li moutre m' lavil Bondye a, Jerizalèm ki desann soti bò kote Bondye ye nan sièl la.
And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain, huge and high; and he showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God.
11 Li te klere byen bèl ak limiè prezans Bondye a. Lavil la te klere tankou yon piè bijou ki koute chè anpil, tankou yon piè jasp klè kou kristal.
It had the glory of God. Its light was like some precious stone, like jasper, clear as crystal;
12 Li te gen yon gwo miray byen wo avèk douz pòtay. Te gen yon zanj nan chak pòtay pou veye yo. Sou pòtay yo, yo te ekri non douz branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la.
with a wall great and high, and twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names written thereon, the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
13 Te gen twa pòtay sou chak kote: twa pòtay sou bò lès, twa pòtay sou bò nò, twa pòtay sou bò sid, twa pòtay sou bò lwès.
On the east were three gates; and on the north, three gates; and on the south, three gates; and on the west, three gates.
14 Miray la te kanpe sou douz gwo wòch. Yo te ekri non douz apòt ti Mouton an sou wòch yo.
And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 Zanj ki t'ap pale avè m' lan te gen yon baton pou mezire nan men li, yon baton wozo fèt an lò, pou l' te pran mezi lavil la, mezi pòtay yo ak mezi miray la.
And he who spoke had a golden reed, as a measure, to measure the city and its gates and walls.
16 Lavil la te tankou yon bwat kare, longè l' te menm ak lajè li. Zanj lan mezire lavil la ak baton wozo l' la. Lavil la gen demildesan (2.200) kilomèt longè. Lajè l' ak wotè l' te menm ak longè li.
And the city lies foursquare; the length of it is as great as the breadth. Then he measured the city with the reed, fifteen hundred miles; the length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
17 Zanj lan mezire miray la: miray la te gen swasanndouz (72) mèt sou wotè, dapre mezi òdenè li t'ap sèvi a.
And he measured its wall, two hundred and sixteen feet, man’s measure, which is an angel’s.
18 Miray la te bati an jasp. Lavil la menm te an bon lò, li te klere kou kristal.
And its wall is made of jasper; but the city is of pure gold, like pure glass.
19 Gwo wòch fondasyon miray lavil la te byen òne ak tout kalite piè bijou gwo pri. Premie wòch la te an jasp, dezyèm lan an safi, twazièm lan an agat, katriyèm lan an emwòd,
The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kings of precious stones. The first foundation-stone was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,
20 senkièm lan an oniks, sizièm lan an sadwan, setièm lan an krizolit, witièm lan an beril, nevièm lan an topaz, dizyèm lan an krizopraz, onzièm lan an tikwaz, douzyèm lan an ametis.
the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.
21 Douz pòtay yo te douz bèl grenn pèl. Chak pòtay yo te fèt ak yon sèl grenn pèl. Tout lari nan lavil la te fèt an bon lò, klè kou kristal.
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; each gate of one pearl. And the broad street of the city was of pure gold, transparent like glass.
22 Mwen pa t' wè tanp nan lavil la, paske Mèt la, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, te tanp li ansanm ak ti Mouton an.
And I saw no temple in the city; For the temple is the Lord God, the Almighty, And the Lamb.
23 Lavil la pa t' bezwen ni solèy, ni lalin pou klere l' paske limiè prezans Bondye a te klere l' nèt, ti Mouton an te tankou yon lanp pou li.
And the city has no need of the sun, Nor of the moon, to shine upon it; For the glory of God has lightened it, And its lamp is the Lamb.
24 Gremesi limiè l' la, tout nasyon ki sou latè va wè pou yo mache. Tout wa latè yo va pote richès yo ba li.
And the nations will walk by its light. And into it the kings of the earth will bring their glory;
25 Pòtay yo va rete louvri tout lajounen. Men, paske la p'ap janm fè nwit, pòtay yo p'ap janm fèmen.
And its gates will not be shut by day, (For there is no night there);
26 Tout richès nasyon yo ansanm ak tout bèl bagay yo genyen va anpile nan lavil la.
And they will bring the glory and honor Of the nations into it.
27 Men, anyen ki pa bon pou sèvis Bondye p'ap antre nan lavil la. Ni yo p'ap kite moun k'ap fè bagay ki bay degoutans, moun k'ap bay manti, mete pie yo nan lavil la. Moun ki va antre nan lavil la, se sèlman moun ki gen non yo ekri nan liv ki nan men ti Mouton an, liv ki gen non moun ki gen lavi a.
There will not enter it anything profane, Nor any who work abominations and a lie; But only those who are written In the Lamb’s Book of Life.
