Zakari 2
1 Apre sa, mwen fè yon lòt vizyon, mwen leve je m' gade. Mwen wè yon nonm avèk yon chenn pou mezire nan men l'.
And I lifted up eyes my and I saw and there! a man and [was] in hand his a cord of measurement.
2 Mwen mande l': -Kote ou prale? Li reponn mwen: -Mwen pral pran mezi lavil Jerizalèm, pou m' wè ki longè ak ki lajè li genyen.
And I said where? [are] you going and he said to me to measure Jerusalem to see how much? [is] breadth its and how much? [is] length its.
3 Zanj ki t'ap pale avèk mwen an te rete kanpe. Yon lòt zanj pwoche devan l' vin jwenn li.
And there! the angel who was speaking with me [was] going out and an angel another [was] going out to meet him.
4 Premye zanj lan di dezyèm lan: -Kouri al di jenn gason ou wè ak chenn nan men l' lan: sitèlman pral gen moun ak bèt nan lavil Jerizalèm, yo p'ap bezwen bati miray pou fèmen l'.
And he said (to him *Q(k)*) run speak to the young man this saying open regions it will remain Jerusalem from [the] multitude of person[s] and livestock in [the] midst of it.
5 Seyè a pale, li fè konnen se li menm k'ap tankou yon gwo miray dife k'ap fè wonn lavil la pou pwoteje l'. Li di: M'ap rete nan mitan lavil la ak tout pouvwa mwen.
And I I will be to it [the] utterance of Yahweh a wall of fire all around and glory I will become in [the] middle of it.
6 Men sa Seyè a di: -Ey! Nou menm mwen te gaye nan kat kwen latè yo, kouri, kouri kite peyi ki nan nò a.
Alas! alas! flee from [the] land of [the] north [the] utterance of Yahweh that like [the] four [the] winds of the heavens I have scattered you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
7 Ey! Nou menm moun Siyon ki rete lavil Babilòn yo, sove kò nou!
Alas! O Zion escape O inhabitant[s] of [the] daughter of Babylon.
8 Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa di: Se li menm ki voye m'. Men sa li di sou nasyon ki te piye pèp li a. Si yon moun manyen pèp la, se tankou si li te foure dwèt nan je m'.
For thus he says Yahweh of hosts after honor he has sent me to the nations who plundered you for the [one who] touches you [is] touching [the] pupil of eye his.
9 Mwen menm mwen pral regle ak nou. Moun nou te fè tounen esklav yo, se yo menm ankò ki pral piye nou. Lè sa a, tout moun va konnen se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ki te voye m'.
For here I [am] about to brandish hand my on them and they will be plunder for own slaves their and you will know that Yahweh of hosts he has sent me.
10 Seyè a di ankò: -Nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm, chante! Fè kè nou kontan! Men m'ap vini pou m' rete nan mitan nou! Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki di sa!
Shout for joy and rejoice O daughter of Zion for here I [am] about to come and I will dwell in midst of you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
11 Lè sa a, anpil nasyon va vin jwenn Seyè a pou yo sèvi l'. Se pèp pa li menm y'ap ye. L'a vin rete nan mitan yo. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ki te voye m' kote nou.
And they will join themselves nations many to Yahweh in the day that and they will become for me a people and I will dwell in midst of you and you will know that Yahweh of hosts he has sent me to you.
12 Seyè a va pran peyi Jida a pou li tankou pòsyon pa l' nan tè yo mete apa pou li a. L'a chwazi lavil Jerizalèm ankò.
And he will inherit Yahweh Judah portion his on [the] land of holiness and he will choose again Jerusalem.
13 Se pou tout moun pe bouch yo devan Seyè a, paske l'ap soti kote ki apa pou li a, l'ap vin delivre nou!
Hush! O all flesh from before Yahweh for he has roused himself from [the] dwelling place of holiness his.
