< Oze 6 >
1 Vini, annou retounen kote SENYÈ a; paske li te chire nou, men Li va geri nou. Li te blese nou, men Li va panse nou.
In her tribulacioun thei schulen rise eerli to me. Come ye, and turne we ayen to the Lord;
2 Li va fè nou vin refè apre de jou; Nan twazyèm jou a Li va fè nou leve. Konsa, nou va viv devan Li.
for he took, and schal heele vs; he schal smyte, and schal make vs hool.
3 Annou rekonèt SENYÈ a; annou refize lage pou nou ka konnen SENYÈ a. Aparans Li asire tankou solèy k ap leve granmmaten. Konsa, Li va vini sou nou tankou lapli, tankou lapli prentan k ap wouze latè.
He schal quykene vs after twei daies, and in the thridde dai he schal reise vs, and we schulen lyue in his siyt. We schulen wite, and sue, that we knowe the Lord. His goyng out is maad redi at the morewtid, and he schal come as a reyn to vs, which is timeful and lateful to the erthe.
4 Kisa pou M fè ak ou, O Éphraïm? Kisa pou M fè ak ou, O Juda? Paske fidelite ou tankou nwaj nan maten, tankou farinay ki disparèt bonè.
Effraym, what schal Y do to thee? Juda, what schal Y do to thee? Youre merci is as a cloude of the morewtid, and as deew passynge forth eerli.
5 Akoz sa, Mwen te taye yo an mòso ak pwofèt yo; Mwen te touye yo ak pawòl bouch Mwen. Jijman Ou yo se tankou loray k ap tire.
For this thing Y hewide in profetis, Y killide hem in the wordis of my mouth;
6 Paske, Mwen pito mizerikòd olye sakrifis, epi konesans Bondye a plis ke ofrann brile.
and thi domes schulen go out as liyt. For Y wolde merci, and not sacrifice, and Y wolde the kunnyng of God, more than brent sacrificis.
7 Men yo menm, tankou Adam te kase transgresyon akò a. La, yo pa t fidèl anvè Mwen.
But thei as Adam braken the couenaunt; there thei trespassiden ayens me.
8 Galaad se yon vil ki plen ak malfektè, plen ak tach san.
Galaad the citee of hem that worchen idol, is supplauntid with blood; and
9 Epi tankou bandi k ap tann yon moun; konsa, yon twoup prèt asasine moun sou wout pou rive Sichem nan. Se gwo krim y ap fè.
as the chekis of men `that ben theues. Partener of prestis sleynge in the weie men goynge fro Sichem, for thei wrouyten greet trespasse.
10 Nan lakay Israël, Mwen te wè yon move bagay. Gen pwostitisyon nan Éphraïm. Israël souye pwòp tèt li.
In the hous of Israel Y siy an orible thing; there the fornicaciouns of Effraym.
11 Ou menm tou, O Juda! Gen yon rekòlt ki deja apwente pou ou menm, lè Mwen retabli byennèt pèp Mwen an.
Israel is defoulid; but also thou, Juda, sette heruest to thee, whanne Y schal turne the caitiftee of my puple.
