Zakari 4
1 Zanj ki t'ap pale ak mwen an vini ankò. Li souke m' tankou yo souke yon moun k'ap dòmi pou fè l' leve.
And the aungel turnede ayen, that spak in me, and reiside me, as a man that is reisid of his sleep.
2 Li di m' konsa: -Sa ou wè la a? Mwen reponn li: -Mwen wè yon lanp sèt branch an lò ki kanpe atè. Li gen yon gwo bòl nan tèt li, avèk sèt lanp sou rebò bòl la. Chak lanp gen sèt bòbèch pou sèt mèch.
And he seide to me, What seest thou? And Y seide, Y saiy, and lo! a candilstike al of gold, and the laumpe therof on the heed therof, and seuene lanternes therof on it, and seuene vessels for to holde oyle to the lanternes, that weren on the heed therof.
3 Bò lanp sèt branch lan te gen de pye oliv, yonn sou bò dwat, yonn sou bò gòch.
And twei olyues there onne, oon of the riythalf `of the laumpe, and `an other on the left half therof.
4 Apre sa, mwen pran lapawòl, mwen mande zanj ki t'ap pale avè m' lan: -Mèt, kisa bagay sa yo ye?
And Y answeride, and seide to the aungel that spak in me, and Y seide, What ben these thingis, my lord?
5 Li reponn mwen: -Ou pa konn sa sa yo ye? Mwen reponn li: -Non, mèt! M' pa konnen non!
And the aungel that spak in me, answeride, and seide to me, Whether thou woist not what ben these thingis? And Y seide, No, my lord.
6 Lè sa a, zanj ki t'ap pale avè m' lan reponn mwen, li di m': -Men mesaj Seyè a voye pou Zowobabèl: Se pa avèk vanyan sòlda ou yo, ni avèk pwòp kouraj ou ou pral rive nan sa ou gen pou fè a. Men se va avèk pouvwa lespri pa m' m'ap ba ou a. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a menm ki di sa.
And he answeride, and seide to me, and spak, This is the word of the Lord, seiynge to Sorobabel, Not in oost, nether in strengthe, but in my spirit, seith the Lord of oostis.
7 Pi gwo antrav yo pral disparèt devan ou, Zowobabèl! Pi gwo mòn lan ap tounen yon plenn. Ou gen pou ou pran yon bèl wòch ladan l' pou fè lento pòtay tanp lan. Lè sa a tout moun va rele: Ala bèl sa bèl! Mèsi pou li!
Who art thou, greet hil, bifore Sorobabel in to pleyn? and he schal lede out the firste stoon, and schal make euene grace to grace therof.
8 Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m':
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
9 -Zowobabèl mete men nan fondasyon kay la. Li gen pou l' fini l'. Lè sa a, pèp mwen an va konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki te voye ou bò kote yo.
and seide, The hondis of Sorobabel foundiden this hous, and the hondis of hym schulen perfourme it; and ye schulen wite, that the Lord of oostis sente me to you.
10 Yo te pran ti konmansman sa yo pou anyen. Men, ala kontan y'a kontan lè y'a wè Zowobabèl ap kontwole travay la, filaplon li nan men l'! Zanj lan di m' ankò: -Lanp sèt branch ou wè la a se sèt je Seyè a ki wè tou sa k'ap pase sou latè.
Who forsothe dispiside litle daies? and thei schulen be glad, and schulen se a stoon of tyn in the hond of Sorobabel. These ben seuene iyen of the Lord, that rennen aboute in to al erthe.
11 Mwen mande l': -De pye oliv ki chak bò lanp sèt branch lan, yonn sou bò dwat, yonn sou bò gòch, kisa yo ye?
And Y answeride, and seide to hym, What ben these tweyne olyues on the riythalf of the candilstike, and at the lift-half therof?
12 De branch oliv sou kote de ti tiyo an lò kote lwil ap koule a, kisa yo vle di?
And Y answeryde the secounde tyme, and seide to hym, What ben the tweyne eeris, ether ripe fruyt, of olyues, that ben bisidis the twei bilis of gold, in whiche ben oile vesselis of gold?
13 Li reponn mwen. -Ou pa konnen sa yo vle di? Mwen di l': -Non, mèt. M' pa konnen non!
And he seide to me, and spak, Whether thou woost not what ben these thingis?
14 Li di m' konsa: -Se de moun Bondye chwazi pou fè travay Seyè a, Mèt latè a.
And Y seide, No, my lord. And he seide, These ben twei sones of oile of schynyng, whiche stonden nyy to the lordli gouernour of al erthe.
