< Revelasyon 9 >
1 Apre sa, senkièm zanj lan kònen klewon l' lan. Mwen wè yon zetwal soti nan sièl la tonbe sou latè. Yo ba l' kle pou louvri pi ki mennen desann nan gwo twou san fon an. (Abyssos )
And the fifth messenger sounded the trumpet, and I saw a star having fallen to the earth out of Heaven, and there was given to him the key of the pit of the abyss, (Abyssos )
2 Zetwal la louvri pi ki mennen nan gwo twou san fon an. Yon gwo lafimen soti ladan l', tankou lafimen yon gwo fou k'ap boule. Lafimen ki t'ap soti nan pi a bouche solèy la. Sièl la vin tou nwa. (Abyssos )
and [he] opened the pit of the abyss, and there came up a smoke out of the pit as smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened from the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos )
3 Yon bann krikèt vèt soti nan lafimen an, yo mache ale toupatou sou latè. Yo te ba yo menm pouvwa ak eskòpyon.
And out of the smoke came forth locusts to the earth, and there was given to them authority, as scorpions of the earth have authority,
4 Yo te di yo pou yo pa t' fè malè sou okenn zèb, ni sou okenn piebwa ni sou okenn lòt plant. Se sou moun sèlman pou yo te fè malè. Epi se pa sou tout moun non, sèlman sou moun ki pa t' pote mak letanp Bondye a sou fwon yo.
and it was said to them that they may not injure the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads,
5 Krikèt yo pa t' gen dwa touye moun sa yo. Men, pandan senk mwa yo te gen dwa fè yo soufri. Krikèt yo fè moun yo soufri tankou si se eskòpyon ki te mòde yo.
and it was given to them that they may not kill them, but that they may be tormented five months, and their torment—as the torment of a scorpion—when it may strike a man;
6 Pandan senk mwa sa yo, moun va chache lanmò, men yo p'ap jwenn lanmò. Y'a anvi mouri, men lanmò va pase lwen yo.
and in those days men will seek death and they will not find it, and they will desire to die, and death will flee from them.
7 Krikèt yo te sanble ak chwal ki pare pou al nan batay. Sou tèt yo chak te gen yon bagay ki sanble ak yon kouwòn lò. Figi yo menm te tankou figi moun.
And the likenesses of the locusts—like to horses made ready to battle, and on their heads [something] as garlands like gold, and their faces as faces of men,
8 Yo te gen cheve sou tèt yo tankou cheve fi. Dan yo menm te tankou dan lyon.
and they had hair as hair of women, and their teeth were as [those] of lions,
9 Sou lestonmak yo, yo te gen yon plak an fè pou pwoteje yo. Lè yo bat zèl yo, yo fè bri tankou yon bann kabwèt chwal ki pral nan batay.
and they had breastplates as breastplates of iron, and the noise of their wings—as the noise of chariots of many horses running to battle;
10 Yo gen menm ke ak eskòpyon, ak yon pikan nan pwent ke a. Se avèk ke yo yo te gen pouvwa fè moun mechanste pandan senk mwa.
and they have tails like to scorpions, and stings were in their tails; and their authority [is] to injure men five months;
11 Yo te gen yon wa alatèt yo. Se zanj gwo twou san fon an. Nan lang ebre yo rele l': Abadon. Nan lang grèk yo rele l': Apolyon, ki vle di: moun k'ap krase brize a. (Abyssos )
and they have over them a king—the messenger of the abyss—a name [is] to him in Hebrew, Abaddon, and in the Greek he has a name, Apollyon. (Abyssos )
12 Premie malè a te pase. Te gen de (2) lòt malè ankò ki te gen pou vini apre sa.
The first woe went forth, behold, there yet come two woes after these things.
13 Lè sa a, sizièm zanj lan kònen klewon l' lan. Mwen tande yon vwa ki t'ap soti nan kat kwen lotèl an lò ki te devan Bondye a.
And the sixth messenger sounded the trumpet, and I heard a voice out of the four horns of the altar of gold that is before God,
14 Vwa a pale ak sizièm zanj ki te kenbe klewon an. Li di li konsa: Lage kat zanj ki mare nan chenn bò gwo larivyè Lefrat la.
saying to the sixth messenger who had the trumpet, “Loose the four messengers who are bound at the great river Euphrates”;
15 Yo lage kat zanj yo. Yo te pare yo pou sa menm, pou lè sa a, pou jou sa a, nan mwa sa a, nan lanne sa a, pou yo te ka touye yon moun sou chak twa moun ki sou latè.
and the four messengers were loosed, who have been made ready for the hour, and day, and month, and year, that they may kill the third of mankind;
16 Yo di m' kantite sòlda sou chwal ki te genyen: Te gen desan milyon (200.000.000).
and the number of the forces of the horsemen—twice ten thousand ten thousands, and I heard the number of them.
17 Men ki jan mwen te wè chwal yo ak kavalie yo nan vizyon an: Kavalie yo te gen yon kalite chemiz an fè pou pwoteje lestonmak yo. Chemiz yo te wouj kou dife, ble kou digo, jòn kou safran. Tèt chwal yo menm te tankou tèt lyon. Dife ansanm ak lafimen epi souf t'ap soti nan bouch yo.
And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those sitting on them, having breastplates of fire, and jacinth, and brimstone; and the heads of the horses [are] as heads of lions, and out of their mouths proceed fire, and smoke, and brimstone;
18 Twa bagay sa yo ki t'ap soti nan bouch chwal yo, se te twa kalamite ki te touye yon moun sou chak twa moun sou latè.
by these three plagues the third of mankind was killed, from the fire, and from the smoke, and from the brimstone, that is proceeding out of their mouths,
19 Paske se nan bouch yo chwal yo te gen tout pouvwa sa a ansanm ak nan ke yo. Baton ke yo menm te sanble ak sèpan: yo te gen yon tèt pou yo te fè moun mechanste.
for the power of the horses are in their mouth, and in their tails, for their tails [are] like serpents, having heads, and they injure with them.
20 Malgre sa, rès moun sou latè yo, sa ki pa t' mouri anba kalamite sa yo, pa t' sispann adore Satan ak zidòl fèt an lò, an ajan, an bwonz, an wòch oswa an bwa, zidòl ki pa ka wè, ki pa ka tande, ki pa ka mache.
And the rest of mankind, who were not killed in these plagues, neither converted from the works of their hands, that they may not worship the demons, and idols, those of gold, and those of silver, and those of brass, and those of stone, and those of wood, that are neither able to see, nor to hear, nor to walk,
21 Wi, atousa, moun sa yo pa t' chanje jan yo t'ap viv la, yo pa t' sispann touye moun, fè maji, lage kò yo nan imoralite ak vòlò zafè moun.
and they did not convert from their murders, nor from their sorceries, nor from their whoredoms, nor from their thefts.
