< 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 the Lord God, makynge of nouyt thee, Jacob, and formynge thee, Israel, seith these thingis, Nyle thou drede, for Y ayenbouyte thee, and Y clepide thee bi thi name; thou art my seruaunt.
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.
Whanne thou schalt go bi watris, Y schal be with thee, and floodis schulen not hile thee; whanne thou schalt go in fier, thou schalt not be brent, and flawme schal not brenne in thee.
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 Y am thi Lord God, the hooli of Israel, thi sauyour. I yaf thi merci Egipt; Ethiopie and Saba for thee.
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.
Sithen thou art maad onourable, and gloriouse in myn iyen; Y louyde thee, and Y schal yyue men for thee, and puplis for thi soule.
5 Pa pè, paske Mwen avèk ou; Mwen va mennen desandan ou yo soti nan lès e ranmase ou nan lwès.
Nyle thou drede, for Y am with thee; Y schal brynge thi seed fro the eest, and Y schal gadere thee togidere fro the west.
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—
Y schal seie to the north, Yyue thou, and to the south, Nyle thou forbede; brynge thou my sones fro afer, and my douytris fro the laste partis of erthe.
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.”
And ech that clepith my name to help, in to my glorie Y made hym of nouyt; Y fourmyde hym, and made hym.
8 Mennen fè parèt pèp ki avèg la, malgre yo gen zye e soud la, malgre yo gen zòrèy.
Lede thou forth the blynde puple, and hauynge iyen; the deef puple, and eeris ben to it.
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”.
Alle hethene men ben gaderid togidere, and lynagis be gaderid togidere. Who among you, who schal telle this, and schal make you to here tho thingis, that ben the firste? yyue thei witnessis of hem, and be thei iustified, and here thei, and seie.
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.
Verili ye ben my witnessis, seith the Lord, and my seruaunt, whom Y chees; that ye wite, and bileue to me, and vndurstonde, for Y mysilf am; bifore me is no God formere, and after me schal noon be.
11 Mwen menm, Mwen se SENYÈ a e nanpwen sovè apa de Mwen menm.
Y am, Y am the Lord, and with out me is no sauyour.
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 telde, and sauyde; Y made heryng, and noon alien God was among you. Ye ben my witnessis, seith the Lord;
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?”
and Y am God fro the bigynnyng, Y my silf am, and noon is that delyuerith fro myn hoond; Y schal worche, and who schal distrie 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.
The Lord, youre ayenbiere, the hooli of Israel, seith these thingis, For you Y sente out in to Babiloyne, and Y drow doun alle barris, and Caldeis hauynge glorie in her schippis.
15 Mwen se SENYÈ a, Sila Ki Sen pa nou an, Kreyatè Israël la, Wa nou an.”
Y am the Lord, youre hooli, youre king, makynge Israel of nouyt.
16 Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ki fè yon wout sou lanmè a, e yon chemen nan dlo pwisan yo,
The Lord seith these thingis, that yaf weie in the see, and a path in rennynge watris;
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):
which ledde out a carte, and hors, a cumpany, and strong man; thei slepten togidere, nether thei schulen rise ayen; thei ben al tobrokun as flex, and ben quenchid.
18 Pa kite ansyen bagay yo antre nan tèt nou, ni reflechi sou bagay ki fin pase.
Thenke ye not on the formere thingis, and biholde ye not olde thingis.
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.
Lo! Y make newe thingis, and now tho schulen bigynne to be maad; sotheli ye schulen know tho. Y schal sette weie in desert, and floodis in a lond without weie.
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.
And a beeste of the feelde schal glorifie me, dragouns and ostrigis schulen glorifie me; for Y yaf watris in desert, and floodis in the lond without weie, that Y schulde yyue drynk to my puple, to my chosun puple.
21 Pèp ke M te fòme pou Mwen an va deklare lwanj Mwen.
Y fourmyde this puple to me, it schal telle my preysyng.
22 Men ou pa t rele Mwen, O Jacob; men ou tevin fatige ak Mwen, O Israël.
Jacob, thou clepidist not me to help; and thou, Israel, trauelidist not for me.
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.
Thou offridist not to me the ram of thi brent sacrifice, and thou glorifiedist not me with thi slayn sacrifices. Y made not thee to serue in offryng, nethir Y yaf to thee trauel in encense.
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.
Thou bouytist not to me swete smellynge spicerie for siluer, and thou fillidist not me with fatnesse of thi slayn sacrifices; netheles thou madist me to serue in thi synnes, thou yauest trauel to me in thi wickidnessis.
25 Mwen menm, Mwen se Sila ki efase transgresyon ou yo, pou koz Mwen; e Mwen p ap sonje peche ou yo.
Y am, Y my silf am, that do awei thi wickidnessis for me, and Y schal not haue mynde on thy synnes.
26 Mete M nan memwa ou. Annou diskite ka nou ansanm. Prezante ka ou pou ou ka jistifye ak eprèv ou.
Brynge me ayen in to mynde, and be we demyd togidere; telle thou, if thou hast ony thing, that thou be iustified.
27 Premye zansèt ou yo te peche, e enstriktè ou yo te trangrese kont Mwen.
Thi firste fadir synnede, and thin interpretours trespassiden ayens me.
28 Pou sa, Mwen va deklare prens a sanktyè yo pa pwòp; Mwen va fè Jacob yon malediksyon, e Israël kon yon repwòch.
And Y made foul hooli princes, and Y yaf Jacob to deth, and Israel in to blasfemye.
