< Zakari 9 >

1 Men mesaj Seyè a bay pou fè konnen volonte li: Li pran desizyon pou l' pini moun peyi Adrak yo ansanm ak moun lavil Damas yo. Se pa sèlman branch fanmi Izrayèl yo ki pou Seyè a. Tout latè nèt se pou li.
The burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus shall be the rest of it: when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the LORD.
2 Peyi Amat ki sou fwontyè peyi Adrak la pou li tou. Moun lavil Tir ak moun lavil Sidon yo ki gen anpil ladrès, se pou li yo ye tou.
And Hamath also shall border by it; Tyre, and Zidon, though it be very wise.
3 Lavil Tir bati gwo miray ranpa ak fò. Yo anpile lò ak ajan lakay yo tankou pousyè granchemen.
And Tyre built herself a strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
4 Men, Seyè a pral pran lavil la pou li. Li pral voye tout richès li yo nan lanmè. Dife pral boule lavil la nèt.
Behold, the LORD will cast her out, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
5 Moun lavil Askalon yo pral wè sa, yo pral pè. Moun Gaza yo pral tranble kou fèy bwa. Moun lavil Ekwon yo tou, paske yo p'ap jwenn sa yo t'ap tann lan. Lavil Gaza pral pèdi wa li a. Lavil Askalon pral rete san moun ladan l'.
Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gaza also shall see it, and be very sorrowful, and Ekron; for her expectation shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
6 Moun san mele yo pral rete lavil Asdòd. M'ap kraze lògèy moun Filisti yo.
And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
7 Yo p'ap manje vyann ak tout san li ladan l' ankò, ni ankenn lòt vye manje yo te konn manje yo. Tout moun ki va chape anba lanmò va fè pati pèp Bondye a. Y'ap tankou yon branch nan fanmi Jida a. Moun Ekwon yo va menm jan ak moun Jebis yo.
And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: but he that remaineth, even he, shall be for our God, and he shall be as a governor in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
8 Mwen pral kanpe tankou gad k'ap fè pòs nan mitan peyi a pou anpeche lòt lame pase ale vini ladan l'. Mwen p'ap kite gwo chèf vin peze yo ankò. Mwen te wè jan pèp mwen an tan soufri.
And I will encamp about my house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with my eyes.
9 Nou menm moun ki rete sou mòn Siyon an, fè fèt, fè gwo fèt! Nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm, rele, chante tèlman nou kontan! Gade! Men wa nou an ap vin jwenn nou! Li rann jistis san patipri. Li genyen batay la. Li san lògèy. Li moute yon bourik, yon ti bourik dèyè manman.
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh to thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon a donkey, and upon a colt the foal of a donkey.
10 Seyè a di: -M'ap wete tout cha lagè ki nan peyi Efrayim. M'ap wete dènye chwal ki nan lavil Jerizalèm. M'ap kraze dènye banza yo sèvi pou fè lagè. Wa nou an pral fè tout nasyon yo viv byen yonn ak lòt. M'ap gouvènen depi yon lanmè jouk nan lòt lanmè a, depi larivyè Lefrat jouk nan dènye bout latè.
And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace to the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
11 Seyè a di: -Akòz kontra mwen pase avè nou an, kontra ki siyen ak san bèt yo ofri yo, m'ap fè lage moun ou yo ki te nan prizon, m'ap wete yo nan fon sitèn san dlo a.
As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit in which is no water.
12 Nou menm prizonye k'ap tann delivrans yo, tounen, tounen non nan sitadèl kote n'a jwenn pwoteksyon an! Jòdi a, men sa m'ap di nou: n'ap resevwa de fwa plis benediksyon pase soufrans mwen te voye sou nou an.
Return to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double to thee;
13 Mwen pral sèvi ak moun Jida yo tankou banza pou fè lagè, ak moun Efrayim yo tankou flèch. Mwen pral sèvi ak moun mòn Siyon yo tankou nepe nan men vanyan sòlda, pou y' al goumen ak moun peyi Lagrès yo.
When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.
14 Seyè a pral parèt anlè tèt pèp li a. Li pral voye flèch li yo tankou zèklè. Seyè a, Bondye a, pral kònen twonpèt la. Li pral mache nan van siklòn k'ap soufle soti nan sid.
And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.
15 Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pral pwoteje pèp li a. Yo pral kraze zam lènmi yo anba pye yo. Pandan batay la, yo pral rele tankou moun sou. Yo pral fè san lènmi yo koule. Li pral koule tankou san bèt yo touye sou lotèl yo.
The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue the sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar.
16 Jou sa a, Seyè a, Bondye yo a, va delivre yo. Tankou yon bon gadò, l'ap sove bann mouton l' yo. Yo pral klere nan peyi li a tankou bèl pyè nan yon kouwòn.
And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.
17 Ala bon sa pral bon nan peyi a! Ala bèl peyi a pral bèl! Jenn gason ak jenn fi pral grandi ak tout grenn jaden ak tout diven yo pral rekòlte nan peyi a.
For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! Grain shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids.
