< Ezayi 59 >
1 Gade byen, men SENYÈ a pa tèlman kout pou l pa ka sove; ni zòrèy Li pa di pou l pa ka tande.
Lo! the hoond of the Lord is not abreggid, that he mai not saue, nether his eere is maad hard, that he here not;
2 Men se inikite nou yo ki fè nou separe ak Bondye nou an, e se peche nou yo ki te kache figi Li de nou menm, pou Li pa tande.
but youre wickidnessis han departid bitwixe you and youre God, and youre synnes han hid his face fro you, that he schulde not here.
3 Paske men nou souye ak san vèse, e dwèt nou ak inikite. Lèv nou fin pale sa ki fo, e lang nou plenyen mechanste.
For whi youre hondis ben defoulid with blood, and youre fyngris with wickidnesse; youre lippis spaken leesyng, and youre tunge spekith wickidnesse.
4 Nanpwen moun ki fè pwosè ak dwati, ni ki fè plent ak entegrite. Yo mete konfyans nan vanite, e yo pale manti. Yo simen mal e yo rekòlte mechanste.
Noon is, that clepith riytfulnesse to help, and noon is, that demeth verili; but thei tristen in nouyt, and speken vanytees; thei conseyueden trauel, and childiden wickidnesse.
5 Yo kale ze koulèv yo, e trese fil arenye yo. Sila ki manje ze yo va mouri; e nan sa ki kraze a, yon koulèv va pete vin parèt.
Thei han broke eiren of snakis, and maden webbis of an yreyn; he that etith of the eiren of hem, schal die, and that that is nurschid, ether brouyt forth, schal breke out in to a cocatrice.
6 Fil pa yo p ap fè rad; ni zèv yo p ap ka kouvri yo. Zèv pa yo se zèv inikite, e se zak vyolans ki rete nan men yo.
The webbis of hem schulen not be in to cloth, nethir thei schulen be hilid with her werkis; the werkis of hem ben vnprofitable werkis, and the werk of wickidnesse is in the hondis of hem.
7 Pye pa yo kouri vè mal, e yo fè vit pou vèse san inosan an. Panse pa yo se panse inikite, e destriksyon ak dega sou chemen yo.
The feet of hem rennen to yuel, and haasten to schede out innocent blood; the thouytis of hem ben vnprofitable thouytis; distriyng and defouling ben in the weies of hem.
8 Yo pa konnen chemen lapè, e nanpwen jistis nan yo. Yo te fè wout kwochi; nenpòt moun ki antre kote yo pa konnen lapè.
Thei knewen not the weie of pees, and doom is not in the goyngis of hem; the pathis of hem ben bowid to hem; ech that tredith in tho, knowith not pees.
9 Akoz sa, lajistis rete lwen nou, e ladwati pa fin rive sou nou. Nou espere jwenn limyè pou klere nou, men nou mache nan fènwa.
Therfor doom is made fer fro vs, and riytfulnesse schal not take vs; we abididen liyt, and lo! derknessis ben; we abididen schynyng, and we yeden in derknessis.
10 Nou tatonnen akote mi an tankou moun avèg. Nou tatonnen kon sila ki pa gen zye yo. Nou kilbite a midi konsi se nan aswè. Pami sila ki plen kouraj yo, nou parèt tankou moun mouri.
We gropiden as blynde men the wal, and we as with outen iyen touchiden; we stumbliden in myddai, as in derknessis, in derk places, as deed men.
11 Epi nou tout gwonde tankou lous, e plenyen ak tristès kon toutrèl. Nou espere lajistis, men nanpwen; pou delivrans, men li lwen nou.
Alle we schulen rore as beeris, and we schulen weile thenkynge as culueris; we abididen doom, and noon is; we abididen helthe, and it is maad fer fro vs.
12 Paske transgresyon nou yo miltipliye devan Ou, e peche nou yo temwaye kont nou. Paske transgresyon nou yo rete avèk nou e nou konnen inikite nou yo:
For whi oure wickidnessis ben multiplied bifore thee, and oure synnes answeriden to vs; for our grete trespassis ben with vs, and we knewen oure wickidnessis,
13 Nou fè rebèl e nou nye SENYÈ a. Nou vire kite Bondye nou an, ak pawòl opresyon ak rebèl. Nan kè a, nou fòmante e fè vin parèt pawòl manti.
to do synne, and to lie ayens the Lord. And we ben turned awei, that we yeden not aftir the bak of oure God, that we speken fals caleng, and trespassyng. We conseyueden, and spaken of herte wordis of leesyng; and doom was turned abak,
14 Lajistis vin detounen e ladwati vin kanpe byen lwen. Paske verite a fin glise tonbe nan lari e ladwati p ap ka antre.
and riytfulnesse stood fer; for whi treuthe felle doun in the street, and equite miyt not entre.
15 Wi, verite a manke; epi sila ki vire akote pou li pa fè mal la, fin fè pwòp tèt li yon viktim. Alò, SENYÈ a te wè e sa pa t fè plezi devan zye L, ke pa t gen jistis.
And treuthe was maad in to foryetyng, and he that yede awei fro yuel, was opyn to robbyng. And the Lord siy, and it apperide yuel in hise iyen, for ther is no doom.
16 Li te wè ke pa t gen pèsòn, e te etone ke pa t gen moun ki pou entèsede. Akoz sa a, pwòp bra Li te mennen sali a rive kote Li, e ladwati Li te bay Li soutyen.
And God siy, that a man is not, and he was angwischid, for noon is that renneth to. And his arm schal saue to hym silf, and his riytfulnesse it silf schal conferme hym.
17 Li te abiye ak ladwati kon pwotèj lestomak, e ak kas sali a sou tèt Li. Li te mete vètman vanjans kon abiman, e te vlope tèt Li ak zèl, kon manto Li.
He is clothid with riytfulnesse as with an harburioun, and the helm of helthe is in his heed; he is clothid with clothis of veniaunce, and he is hilid as with a mentil of feruent worchyng.
18 Selon zèv pa yo, konsa Li va rekonpanse yo: jijman ak kòlè a advèsè Li yo, rekonpans a lènmi Li yo; a peyi kot yo, Li va bay sa yo merite.
As to veniaunce, as to yeldyng of indignacioun to hise enemyes, and to quityng of tyme to hise aduersaries, he schal yelde while to ylis.
19 Akoz sa, yo va gen krent non SENYÈ a soti nan lwès e glwa Li soti kote solèy leve a; paske Li va vini tankou dlo ravin k ap desann byen rapid. Se van SENYÈ a kap pouse l.
And thei that ben at the west, schulen drede the name of the Lord, and thei that ben at the risyng of the sunne, schulen drede the glorie of hym; whanne he schal come as a violent flood, whom the spirit of the Lord compellith.
20 “Yon Redanmtè va vini nan Sion, e a sila ki vire kite transgresyon Jacob yo,” deklare SENYÈ a.
Whan ayen biere schal come to Syon, and to hem that goen ayen fro wickidnesse in Jacob, seith the Lord.
21 “Pou Mwen menm, sa se akò mwen avèk yo,” di SENYÈ a: “Lespri Mwen ki sou ou a, e pawòl Mwen ke M te mete nan bouch ou yo p ap janm disparèt nan bouch ou, ni bouch a desandan ou yo, ni bouch a desandan pa yo,” pale SENYÈ a, “depi koulye a e jis rive pou tout tan.”
This is my boond of pees with hem, seith the Lord; My spirit which is in thee, and my wordis whiche Y haue set in thi mouth, schulen not go awei fro thi mouth, and fro the mouth of thi seed, seith the Lord, fro hennus forth and til into with outen ende.
