Ezayi 6
1 Nan ane Wa Ozias te mouri an, mwen te wè SENYÈ a ki te chita sou yon twòn, byen wo e egzalte, avèk ke wòb Li ki te ranpli tanp lan.
And it came to pass in the year in which king Ozias died, [that] I saw the Lord sitting on a high and exalted throne, and the house was full of his glory.
2 Serafen yo te kanpe pi wo Li, yo chak ak sis zèl: ak de, li te kouvri figi li; ak de, li te kouvri pye li e ak de, li te vole.
And seraphs stood round about him: each one had six wings: and with two they covered [their] face, and with two they covered [their] feet, and with two they flew.
3 Youn te rele a yon lòt epi te di: “Sen, Sen, Sen, se SENYÈ dèzame yo; tout latè plen ak glwa Li.”
And one cried to the other, and they said, Holy, holy, holy [is the] Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 Fondasyon a papòt yo te tranble ak vwa a sila ki te rele fò a pandan tanp lan te plen ak lafimen.
And the lintel shook at the voice they uttered, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Konsa, mwen te di: “Malè a mwen, paske mwen fin detwi nèt! Akoz mwen se yon nonm ak lèv ki pa pwòp, e mwen viv pami yon pèp ak lèv ki pa pwòp; paske zye m te wè Wa a, SENYÈ dèzame yo.”
And I said, Woe is me, for I am pricked to the heart; for being a man, and having unclean lips, I dwell in the midst of a people having unclean lips; and I have seen with mine eyes the King, the Lord of hosts.
6 Epi youn nan serafen yo te vole kote m ak yon mòso chabon tou limen nan men l, ke li te pran sou lotèl la ak pensèt.
And there was sent to me one of the seraphs, and he had in his hand a coal, which he had taken off the altar with the tongs:
7 Li te touche bouch mwen ak li, epi te di: “Men vwala, sa fin touche lèv ou; epi inikite pa ou retire e peche ou vin padone.”
and he touched my mouth, and said, Behold, this has touched thy lips, and will take away thine iniquities, and will purge off thy sins.
8 Konsa, mwen te tande vwa SENYÈ a, ki te di: “Se kilès ke m ap voye, e se kilès k ap ale pou Nou?” Epi mwen te di: “Men mwen! Voye mwen!”
And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go to this people? And I said, behold, I am [here], send me. And he said, Go, and say to this people,
9 Li te di: “Ale di pèp sa a: ‘Kontinye koute, men pa wè; kontinye gade, men pa konprann.’
Ye shall hear indeed, but ye shall not understand; and ye shall see indeed, but ye shall not perceive.
10 Rann kè a pèp sa a ensansib, zòrèy yo di e zye yo mal pou wè; otreman, petèt yo ta wè ak zye yo, tande ak zòrèy yo, konprann ak kè yo e retounen pou resevwa gerizon.”
For the heart of this people has become gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
11 Epi mwen te di: “Senyè, pou konbyen tan?” Li te reponn: “Jiskaske vil yo fin devaste nèt e pa gen moun pou rete ladan yo, kay yo vin san moun e peyi a fin dezole,
And I said, How long, O Lord? And he said, Until cities be deserted by reason of their not being inhabited, and the houses by reason of there being no men, and the land shall be left desolate.
12 epi SENYÈ a fin retire moun yo byen lwen e plas abandone yo vin anpil nan mitan peyi a.
And after this God shall remove the men far off, and they that are left upon the land shall be multiplied.
13 Sepandan, si genyen yon dizyèm pòsyon ladann, li va osi manje nèt, tankou yon bwa terebinth oswa yon bwadchenn ak chouk ki rete lè l koupe mete atè. Konsa, Semans ki sen se chouk li.”
And yet there shall be a tenth upon it, and again it shall be for a spoil, as a turpentine tree, and as an acorn when it falls out of its husk.
