Zakari 10

1 Lè sezon prentan rive, mande Seyè a pou l' ban nou lapli. Se Seyè a ki fè loraj gwonde, ki fè gwo lapli tonbe. Li fè jaden tout moun pouse.

Ask you of the Lord rain in season, the early and the latter: the Lord has given bright signs, and will give them abundant rain, to every one grass in the field.

2 Moun k'ap bat kat yo, se twonpe y'ap twonpe moun. Divinò yo menm, se manti y'ap bay. Rèv yo fè pa vle di anyen. Moun yo mete espwa yo nan bagay ki p'ap janm rive. Moun yo pèdi tèt yo tankou mouton ki pèdi bann. Yo nan traka, paske pa gen chèf pou mennen yo.

For the speakers have uttered grievous things, and the diviners [have ] [seen] false visions, and they have spoken false dreams, they have given vain comfort: therefore have they fallen away like sheep, and been afflicted, because there was no healing.

3 Seyè a di ankò: -Mwen ankòlè sou moun lòt nasyon k'ap gouvènen pèp mwen an. Mwen pral pini yo. Wi, mwen pral pran swen bann mouton m' yo, moun fanmi Jida yo. Mwen pral ba yo fòs kouraj pou yo sèvi m' tankou chwal frengan pou fè lagè.

Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I will visit the lambs; and the Lord God Almighty shall visit his flock, the house of Juda, and he shall make them as his goodly horse in war.

4 M'ap fè anpil ladan yo tounen chèf, kòmandan lame ak sòlda ki gen ladrès pou goumen. Se nan pèp la menm m'ap fè chèf ki pou gouvènen yo soti.

And from him he looked, and from him he set [the battle in order], and from him [came] the bow in anger, [and] from him shall come forth every oppressor together.

5 Moun pèp Jida yo pral genyen batay la, y'ap tankou sòlda k'ap foule lènmi anba pye yo nan labou nan granchemen. Yo pral goumen, paske Seyè a la avèk yo. Tout lènmi ki sou chwal yo pral wont.

And they shall be as warriors treading clay in the ways in war; and they shall set the battle in array, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame.

6 Mwen pral bay moun fanmi Jida yo fòs. Mwen pral delivre moun fanmi Jozèf yo. M'ap fè yo tounen lakay yo paske kè m' fè m' mal pou yo. Se va tankou si m' pa t' janm lage yo. Se Seyè a, Bondye yo a, mwen ye. M'ap tande lapriyè yo fè nan pye m'.

And I will strengthen the house of Juda, and save the house of Joseph, and I will settle them; because I have loved them: and they shall be as [if] I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and I will hear them.

7 Moun Efrayim yo pral tankou vanyan sòlda. Y'ap kontan tankou moun ki anba gwòg. Pitit pitit yo va chonje sa, y'a fè fèt. Y'a kontan pou sa Seyè a te fè pou yo.

And they shall be as the warriors of Ephraim, and their heart shall rejoice as with wine: and their children also shall see [it], and be glad; and their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.

8 Mwen pral rele yo pou m' fè yo sanble paske mwen delivre yo. Yo pral vin peple anpil ankò, jan yo te ye anvan an.

I will make a sign to them, and gather them in; for I will redeem them, and they shall be multiplied according to their number before.

9 M'ap gaye yo nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Men, y'a toujou chonje m', menm lè yo nan peyi byen lwen. Y'a viv la ansanm ak pitit yo. Yon jou, y'a tounen nan peyi yo a.

And I will sow them amongst the people; and they that are afar off shall remember me: they shall nourish their children, and they shall return.

10 M'ap fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip tounen lakay yo. M'ap ranmase yo nan peyi Lasiri. Y'ap tounen vin rete nan peyi Galarad ak nan peyi Liban. Peyi a pral twò piti pou yo.

And I will bring them again from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them in from amongst the Assyrians; and I will bring them into the land of Galaad and to Libanus; and there shall not even one of them be left behind.

11 Lè pou yo janbe lanmè peyi Lejip la, mwen menm, Seyè a, m'a frape dlo lanmè a. Epi tout kote larivyè Nil ap koule yo pral chèch. Mwen pral kraze lògèy peyi Lasiri a. Peyi Lejip pral pèdi pouvwa li.

And they shall pass through a narrow sea, they shall strike the waves in the sea, and all the deep places of the rivers shall be dried up: and all the pride of the Assyrians shall be taken away, and the sceptre of Egypt shall be removed.

12 Mwen pral bay pèp mwen fòs kouraj ankò. Y'a sèvi m', y'a fè lwanj mwen. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa!

And I will strengthen them in the Lord their God; and they shall boast in his name, says the Lord.
