Ezayi 35
1 Savann nan ak dezè a va kontan. Tè dezole a va rejwi e flèri, tankou yon woz.
The land that was desolate and impassable shall be glad, and the wilderness shall rejoice, and shall flourish like the lily.
2 Li va fleri anpil, rejwi ak kè kontan, e fè yon kri lajwa. Glwa Liban an va bay a li menm; majeste a Carmen ak Saron an. Yo va wè glwa SENYÈ a, majeste a Bondye nou an.
It shall bud forth and blossom, and shall rejoice with joy and praise: the glory of Libanus is given to it: the beauty of Carmel, and Saron, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the beauty of our God.
3 Ankouraje men ki pedi fòs, e ranfòse jenou ki fèb la.
Strengthen ye the feeble hands, and confirm the weak knees.
4 Pale a sila ki gen kè twouble yo, “Pran kouraj! Pa pè! Gade byen, Bondye nou an va vini ak vanjans. Rekonpans Li an va rive. Li va vini, e Li va sove nou.”
Say to the fainthearted: Take courage, and fear not: behold your God will bring the revenge of recompense: God himself will come and will save you.
5 Konsa, zye avèg yo va louvri, e zòrèy a soud yo debouche.
Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
6 Moun bwate yo va vòltije tankou sèf, e lang bèbè a va rele ak gwo jwa. Paske dlo va pete nan tè sèch yo, ak vwa dlo yo nan dezè a.
Then shall the lame man leap as a hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall be free: for waters are broken out in the desert, and streams in the wilderness.
7 Peyi deseche a va vin tounen yon letan, e tè swaf kòn sous k ap pete dlo. Nan landwa chen mawon yo, nan kote yo poze a, va gen zèb ak wozo ak jon.
And that which was dry land, shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water. In the dens where dragons dwell before, shall rise up the verdure of the reed and the bulrush.
8 Yon gran chemen va la, yon gran ri. Li va rele Chemen Sen an. Sila ki pa pwòp p ap vwayaje sou li, men li va sèvi pou sila ki mache nan Chemen an. Moun mechan ak enpridan an pa p mache la.
And a path and a way shall be there, and it shall be called the holy way: the unclean shall not pass over it, and this shall be unto you a straight way, so that fools shall not err therein.
9 Nanpwen lyon k ap la, ni p ap gen bèt sovaj k ap mache sou li. Yo p ap twouve la. Men rachte yo va mache la.
No lion shall be there, nor shall any mischievous beast go up by it, nor be found there: but they shall walk there that shall be delivered.
10 Rachte a SENYÈ yo va retounen. Ya vini ak gwo kri lajwa lantre nan Sion; lajwa ki p ap janm fini ap sou tèt yo. Yo va twouve kè kontan ak lajwa; tristès ak soupi va sove ale.
And the redeemed of the Lord shall return, and shall come into Sion with praise, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
