< Abakouk 2 >
1 Mwen va kanpe sou pòs gad mwen, e mwen va pran pozisyon sou ranpa a. Mwen va veye san rete pou wè ki sa Li va pale avèk mwen, ak jan pou m ta reponn, selon plent mwen pote bay L.
upon charge my to stand: stand and to stand upon siege and to watch to/for to see: see what? to speak: speak in/on/with me and what? to return: reply upon argument my
2 Konsa SENYÈ a te reponn mwen. Li te di: “Ekri vizyon an e montre li klè sou tablo, pou (sila) k ap kouri a, ka li l.
and to answer me LORD and to say to write vision and to make plain upon [the] tablet because to run: run to call: read out in/on/with him
3 Paske vizyon an toujou pou lè deziye a. La p pwoche vit pou rive nan bi li, ni li p ap fè fayit. Menmsi li fè reta, tann li; paske anverite, li va vini. Li p ap fè mize.
for still vision to/for meeting: time appointed and to breathe to/for end and not to lie if to delay to wait to/for him for to come (in): fulfill to come (in): fulfill not to delay
4 Gade byen, kè l anfle. Nanm li pa dwat anndan l, men moun dwat la va viv pa lafwa li.
behold to swell not to smooth soul his in/on/with him and righteous in/on/with faithfulness his to live
5 Anplis, diven devwale yon moun ògeye, ki pa rete lakay li. L ap ogmante apeti li tankou Sejou mò a. Epi konsa, li menm, tankou lanmò a, pa kapab satisfè. Li rasanble a li menm tout nasyon yo, e li ranmase tout pèp yo a li menm. (Sheol )
and also for [the] wine to act treacherously great man proud and not to dwell which to enlarge like/as hell: Sheol soul: appetite his and he/she/it like/as death and not to satisfy and to gather to(wards) him all [the] nation and to gather to(wards) him all [the] people (Sheol )
6 “Èske tout moun sa yo p ap Leve yon chan mokè kont li, yon tire pwen kont li pou di: “Malè a (sila) ki ogmante sa ki pa pou li— pou jiskilè l ap fè tèt li rich ak chantay li yo?”
not these all their upon him proverb to lift: loud and mockery riddle to/for him and to say woe! [the] to multiply not to/for him till how and to honor: heavy upon him debt
7 Èske moun ki dwe w yo p ap leve sibitman? Èske yo p ap vin souleve? Anverite, ou va vin piyaj pou yo.
not suddenness to arise: rise to bite you and to awake to tremble you and to be to/for plunder to/for them
8 Akoz ou te piyaje anpil nasyon, tout retay pèp yo va piyaje ou. L ap konsa, akoz tout san moun ki vèse ak vyolans ki fèt nan peyi a, nan vil la, ak tout moun ki rete ladann yo.
for you(m. s.) to loot nation many to loot you all remainder people from blood man and violence land: country/planet town and all to dwell in/on/with her
9 “Malè a (sila) ki jwenn avantaj malonèt pou lakay li a, pou mete nich li byen wo, pou l ta ka delivre soti nan men a gwo malè!
woe! to cut off: to gain unjust-gain bad: evil to/for house: household his to/for to set: make in/on/with height nest his to/for to rescue from palm bad: evil
10 Ou te machinen yon gwo wont pou lakay ou nan detwi anpil pèp. Konsa, ou te peche kont pwòp nanm ou.
to advise shame to/for house: household your to cut off people many and to sin soul: life your
11 Anverite, wòch la va kriye soti nan mi an, e poto travès la va reponn li.
for stone from wall to cry out and rafter from tree: wood to answer her
12 “Malè a (sila) ki bati yon vil ak san vèse, e ki fonde yon vil ak inikite!
woe! to build city in/on/with blood and to establish: make town in/on/with injustice
13 Anverite, èske sa pa soti nan SENYÈ dèzame yo pou moun travay di pou dife a, e nasyon yo fatige kò yo pou granmesi?
not behold from with LORD Hosts and be weary/toil people in/on/with sufficiency fire and people in/on/with sufficiency vain to faint
14 Paske latè va ranpli ak konesans ak laglwa SENYÈ a, tankou dlo kouvri lanmè.
for to fill [the] land: country/planet to/for to know [obj] glory LORD like/as water to cover upon sea
15 “Malè a ou menm k ap fòse vwazen ou bwè, k ap mele gwòg pa w ladann, menm pou fè yo sou, pou gade toutouni yo!
woe! to water: drink neighbor his to attach rage your and also be drunk because to look upon nakedness their
16 Ou plen ak wont san onè. Konsa, ou va bwè ou menm e dekouvri pwòp toutouni pa ou. Tas nan men dwat SENYÈ a va vire tou won pou rive kote ou, e wont total va ranplase laglwa ou.
to satisfy dishonor from glory to drink also you(m. s.) and be uncircumcised to turn: turn upon you cup right LORD and disgrace upon glory your
17 Paske vyolans ki fèt Liban an va fè ou plonje desann, ansanm ak destriksyon a bèt va bay ou gwo laperèz; akoz de san vèse a moun ak vyolans tè a, nan chak vil la ak tout (sila) ki rete ladann yo.
for violence Lebanon to cover you and violence animal to to be dismayed them from blood man and violence land: country/planet town and all to dwell in/on/with her
18 “Ki pwofi ki gen nan zidòl la, lè mèt li fin taye l? Swa yon imaj, fome pa yonpwofesè k ap bay manti? Paske (sila) menm ki te fè l la mete konfyans li nan pwòp zèv li a, lè l fòme zidòl ki bebe.
what? to gain idol for to hew him to form: formed him liquid and to show deception for to trust to form: formed intention his upon him to/for to make idol mute
19 Malè a (sila) ki di a yon mòso bwa: ‘Leve!”, a yon wòch ki pa ka pale: “Kanpe!” Èske se (sila) a ki ka enstwi? Men gade byen, li kouvri nèt ak lò ak ajan, e pa gen okenn souf ladann.
woe! to say to/for tree: wood to awake [emph?] to rouse to/for stone silence he/she/it to show behold he/she/it to capture gold and silver: money and all spirit: breath nothing in/on/with entrails: among his
20 Men SENYÈ a la nan sen tanp Li. Ke tout tè a fè silans devan Li.”
and LORD in/on/with temple holiness his to silence from face: before his all [the] land: country/planet
