Ezayi 43
1 Men koulye a, konsa pale SENYÈ a, Kreyatè ou a, O Jacob, e Sila ki te fòme ou a, O Israël: “Pa pè, paske Mwen te rachte ou. Mwen te rele ou pa non ou. Se pa M ou ye!
And now thus he says Yahweh [who] created you O Jacob and [who] formed you O Israel may not you be afraid for I have redeemed you I have called [you] by name your [belong] to me you.
2 Lè w ap pase nan gwo dlo yo, Mwen va la avèk ou; epi nan rivyè yo, yo p ap debòde sou ou. Lè w ap mache nan dife a, ou p ap brile, ni flanm nan p ap brile ou.
If you will pass in the waters [will be] with you I and in the rivers not they will overflow you if you will walk in fire not you will be burned and flame not it will burn you.
3 Paske Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, Sila Ki Sen en Israël la, Sovè ou a. Mwen te bay Égypte kon ranson ou Cush ak Saba nan plas ou.
For I [am] Yahweh God your [the] holy [one] of Israel deliverer your I have given ransom your Egypt Cush and Seba in place of you.
4 Akoz ou presye nan zye M, akoz ou gen gran valè e Mwen renmen ou, Mwen va bay lòt moun nan plas ou e lòt pèp an echanj pou lavi ou.
Because you are precious in view my you are honored and I I love you and I may give humankind in place of you and peoples in place of life your.
5 Pa pè, paske Mwen avèk ou; Mwen va mennen desandan ou yo soti nan lès e ranmase ou nan lwès.
May not you be afraid for [am] with you I from [the] east I will bring offspring your and from [the] west I will gather you.
6 Mwen va di a nò: ‘Lage yo!’ Epi a sid: ‘Pa anpeche yo!’ Mennen fis Mwen yo soti lwen e fi Mwen yo soti nan dènye pwent latè yo—
I will say to the north deliver up and to [the] south may not you withhold bring sons my from a distance and daughters my from [the] end of the earth.
7 tout moun ki rele pa non Mwen e ke Mwen te kreye pou glwa Mwen, ke M te fòme, menm sa ke m te fè.”
Every [one who] is called by name my and [whom] for glory my I created him [whom] I formed him also I made him.
8 Mennen fè parèt pèp ki avèg la, malgre yo gen zye e soud la, malgre yo gen zòrèy.
Bring out a people blind and [are] eyes there and deaf [people] and ears [belong] to them.
9 Kite tout nasyon yo reyini ansanm e tout pèp yo rasanble. Kilès pami yo ki kapab deklare sa e pwoklame a nou menm bagay a tan ansyen yo? Kite yo prezante temwen pa yo pou yo ka jistifye, oswa kite yo tande e di: “Sa se vrè”.
All the nations they have assembled together so they may gather peoples who? among them will he declare this and former [things] will they proclaim to? us let them appoint witnesses their so they may be justified and they may hear and they may say truth.
10 “Nou se temwen Mwen,” deklare SENYÈ a, “Ak sèvitè ke M te chwazi; pou nou ka konnen, kwè nan Mwen e konprann ke Mwen se Li menm nan. Avan Mwen, pa t gen lòt Bondye ki te fòme e apre Mwen, p ap gen menm.
You [are] witnesses my [the] utterance of Yahweh and servant my whom I have chosen so that you may know and you may believe me and you may perceive that I [am] he before me not it was formed a god and after me not it will be.
11 Mwen menm, Mwen se SENYÈ a e nanpwen sovè apa de Mwen menm.
I I [am] Yahweh and there not except me [is] a deliverer.
12 Se Mwen ki te deklare, sove, pwoklame e pat genyen dye etranje pami nou. Konsa, nou se temwen M”, deklare SENYÈ a: “Epi Mwen se Bondye.
I I have declared and I have saved and I have proclaimed and there not among you [was] a strange [god] and you [are] witnesses my [the] utterance of Yahweh and I [am] God.
13 Menm depi nan letènite, Mwen se Li menm e pa genyen moun ki ka delivre fè sòti nan men M; Mwen aji e se kilès ki ka ranvèse l?”
Also from a day I [am] he and there not from hand my [is] a deliverer I act and who? will he revoke it.
14 Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Redanmtè nou an, Sila Ki Sen an Israël la; “Pou koz nou, Mwen voye kote Babylone e Mwen va mennen yo tout desann kote nou kon kaptif, menm Kaldeyen yo nan bato anndan sila yo rejwi yo.
Thus he says Yahweh redeemer your [the] holy [one] of Israel for sake your I have sent Babylon towards and I will bring down [as] fugitives all of them and [the] Chaldeans in ships shout of joy their.
15 Mwen se SENYÈ a, Sila Ki Sen pa nou an, Kreyatè Israël la, Wa nou an.”
I [am] Yahweh holy [one] your [the] creator of Israel king your.
16 Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ki fè yon wout sou lanmè a, e yon chemen nan dlo pwisan yo,
Thus he says Yahweh who made in the sea a way and in waters mighty a path.
17 Ki mennen fè parèt cha avèk cheval la, lame ak mesye pwisan a (Yo va kouche ansanm e yo p ap leve ankò; yo te etenn tankou yon fisèl bouji):
Who sent out chariotry and horse[s] an army and a strong [one] together they lay down not they rose they were extinguished like wick they were quenched.
18 Pa kite ansyen bagay yo antre nan tèt nou, ni reflechi sou bagay ki fin pase.
May not you remember former [things] and ancient [things] may not you consider.
19 Gade byen, Mwen va fè yon bagay tounèf; koulye a, li va pete vin parèt. Èske nou p ap rekonèt li? Menm yon chemen nan dezè a Mwen va fè, ak rivyè yo nan dezè a.
Here I [am] about to do a new [thing] now it is springing up ¿ not do you know it also I will make in the wilderness a way in a desolate place rivers.
20 Bèt nan chan yo va bay glwa a Mwen menm, chen mawon nan chan yo ak otrich yo, akoz Mwen te bay dlo nan savann nan e rivyè nan dezè a pou pèp chwazi Mwen an ka bwè.
It honors me [the] animal[s] of the field jackals and daughters of an ostrich for I have put in the wilderness water rivers in a desolate place to give drink to people my chosen one my.
21 Pèp ke M te fòme pou Mwen an va deklare lwanj Mwen.
A people which I formed for myself praise my they will recount.
22 Men ou pa t rele Mwen, O Jacob; men ou tevin fatige ak Mwen, O Israël.
And not me you have called on O Jacob for you have grown weary with me O Israel.
23 Ou pa t mennen ban Mwen mouton a ofrann brile ou yo, ni ou pa t onore M ak ofrann brile ou yo, ni ou pa t onore M ak sakrifis ou yo. Mwen pa t mete gwo fado sou ou ak ofrann yo, ni fè ou fatige ak lansan.
Not you have brought to me [the] sheep of burnt offerings your and sacrifices your not you have honored me not I have burdened you with offering[s] and not I have made weary you with frankincense.
24 Ou pa t mennen ban M kann dous ak lajan, ni ou pa t plen M ak grès a sakrifis ou yo. Olye de sa, ou te chaje Mwen ak peche ou yo. Ou te fatige M ak inikite ou yo.
Not you have bought for me for money calamus and [the] fat of sacrifices your not you have satisfied me nevertheless you have burdened me with sins your you have made weary me with iniquities your.
25 Mwen menm, Mwen se Sila ki efase transgresyon ou yo, pou koz Mwen; e Mwen p ap sonje peche ou yo.
I I [am] he [who is] wiping out transgressions your for own sake my and sins your not I will remember.
26 Mete M nan memwa ou. Annou diskite ka nou ansanm. Prezante ka ou pou ou ka jistifye ak eprèv ou.
Cause to remember me let us enter into judgment together recount O you so that you may be justified.
27 Premye zansèt ou yo te peche, e enstriktè ou yo te trangrese kont Mwen.
Ancestor your first he sinned and spokesmen your they transgressed against me.
28 Pou sa, Mwen va deklare prens a sanktyè yo pa pwòp; Mwen va fè Jacob yon malediksyon, e Israël kon yon repwòch.
So I may profane [the] officials of holiness and I will give to total destruction Jacob and Israel to reviling words.
