Ezayi 21
1 Pwofesi konsènan dezè lanmè a. Kon tanpèt van nan dezè a kontinye ravaje, sa sòti nan dezè a, de yon peyi etonnan.
The burden of the desert Sea. As the whirlewindes in the South vse to passe from the wildernesse, so shall it come from the horrible land.
2 Yon vizyon tèlman rèd devwale devan m. Moun nan ki trèt la, fè trèt toujou, e sila k ap detwi a, detwi toujou. Monte Élam, fè syèj! Mwen te fè tout plenyen Médie sispann.
A grieuous vision was shewed vnto me, The transgressour against a transgressour, and the destroyer against a destroyer. Goe vp Elam, besiege Media: I haue caused all the mourning thereof to cease.
3 Pou rezon sa a, kwis mwen plen doulè. Gwo lapèn sezi mwen tankou doulè a fanm ansent. Mwen tèlman twouble ke m pa ka tande. Mwen tèlman pè ke m pa ka wè.
Therefore are my loynes filled with sorow: sorowes haue taken me as the sorowes of a woman that trauayleth: I was bowed downe when I heard it, and I was amased when I sawe it.
4 Panse mwen ap vire tounen. Gwo efryans plen tèt mwen. Ti limyè aswè a ke m te anvi wè a, koulye a vin fè m tranble.
Mine heart failed: fearefulnesse troubled me: the night of my pleasures hath he turned into feare vnto me.
5 Yo prepare tab la, yo plase watchman nan, yo manje, yo bwè. Leve, o kapitèn yo, mete lwil sou boukliye yo!
Prepare thou the table: watch in the watch towre: eate, drinke: arise, ye princes, anoynt the shielde.
6 Paske konsa SENYÈ a pale avèk mwen: “Ale pozisyone gadyen an; kite li bay rapò a sa li wè a.
For thus hath the Lord said vnto me, Go, set a watchman, to tell what he seeth.
7 Lè l wè sila ki monte cheval yo, chevalye aliye pa de yo, yon lign bourik yo, yon lign chamo yo, kite li veye ak atansyon, veye byen pre.”
And he sawe a charet with two horsemen: a charet of an asse, and a charet of a camel: and he hearkened and tooke diligent heede.
8 Gadyen nan rele kon yon lyon: “O SENYÈ, mwen kanpe tout jou yo san deplase sou wo tou la! Nan lanwit sou pòs gad la!
And he cryed, A lyon: my lorde, I stand continually vpon ye watche towre in the day time, and I am set in my watche euery night:
9 Atansyon! Veye byen! Men yon ekip moun monte, chevalye alinye pa de yo ap vini.” Li te reponn: “Tonbe, Babylone fin tonbe! Tout imaj a dye li yo kraze atè.”
And beholde, this mans charet commeth with two horsemen. And he answered and said, Babel is fallen: it is fallen, and all the images of her gods hath he broken vnto the ground.
10 O moun pa m ke yo fin bat nèt kon sereyal! Sa ke m te tande soti nan SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la, sa mwen fè nou konnen.
O my threshing, and the corne of my floore. That which I haue heard of the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, haue I shewed vnto you.
11 Pwofesi konsènan Edom an. Gen yon moun ki toujou ap rele m depi nan Séir: “Gadyen, kijan nwit lan ap avanse? Gadyen, kijan nwit lan ap avanse?”
The burden of Dumah. He calleth vnto me out of Seir, Watchman, what was in ye night? Watchman, what was in the night?
12 Gadyen an reponn: “Maten an vin pwoche; men osi anplis, nwit lan. Si ou ta vle fè ankèt, fè ankèt. Retounen ankò.”
The watchman saide, The morning commeth, and also the night. If yee will aske, enquire: returne and come.
13 Pwofesi konsènan Arabie a. Fòk nou pase nwit lan nan rakbwa pikan Arabie yo, O karavàn a Dedan yo.
The burden against Arabia. In the forest of Arabia shall yee tarie all night, euen in the waies of Dedanim.
14 Pote dlo pou moun swaf yo, O moun ki rete nan peyi Théma yo; rankontre ak sila k ap sove ale ak pen an.
O inhabitants of the lande of Tema, bring foorth water to meete the thirstie, and preuent him that fleeth with his bread.
15 Paske yo te sove ale chape devan nepe yo, devan nepe ki rale yo, banza ki koube a ak presyon batay la.
For they flee from the drawen swords, euen from the drawen sword, and from the bent bowe, and from the grieuousnesse of warre.
16 Paske konsa SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Nan yon ane, jan yon anplwaye ta kab konwole li, tout grandè a Kédar va fini;
For thus hath the Lord sayd vnto me, Yet a yeere according to the yeeres of an hireling, and all the glorie of Kedar shall faile.
17 epi retay sòlda banza yo, mesye pwisan a, fis a Kédar yo, va vin yon tikras; paske SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, te pale.”
And the residue of the nomber of ye strong archers of the sonnes of Kedar shall be fewe: for the Lord God of Israel hath spoken it.
