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.
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw My Lord, sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and, his skirts, did fill the temple,
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.
Seraphim, were standing above him; six wings severally, had each one, —With twain, he covered his face And with twain, he covered his feet And with twain, he did fly.
3 Youn te rele a yon lòt epi te di: “Sen, Sen, Sen, se SENYÈ dèzame yo; tout latè plen ak glwa Li.”
And they continued crying out one to another, and said, Holy—holy—holy, is Yahweh of hosts, —the fulness of the whole earth, is 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 foundations of the porch, were moved at the voice of him that cried, —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.”
Then said I—Woe to me!—for I am undone, Because a man of unclean lips, am, I, And in the midst of a people of unclean lips, do I dwell, —For the King. Yahweh of hosts, have mine eyes seen!
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.
Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, And in his hand, a live coal, —With tongs, had he taken it from off the altar.
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.”
Then touched he my mouth, and said—Lo! this hath touched thy lips, —Thus shall be taken away, thine iniquity, And, thy sin, by propitiation be covered.
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!”
Then heard I the voice of My Lord, saying, Whom shall I send? And who will go for us? And I said—Here am I—send me.
9 Li te di: “Ale di pèp sa a: ‘Kontinye koute, men pa wè; kontinye gade, men pa konprann.’
Then said he—Go and say unto this people, —Hear on but do not discern, See on but do 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.”
Stupefy thou the heart of this people, And their ears, make thou heavy, And their eyes, overspread, —Lest they see with their eyes And with their ears, should hear, And their heart should discern and come back. And they be healed.
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,
Then said I—How long, My Lord? And he said—Until the time that Cities be wasted through having no inhabitant And houses—through having no men, And, the ground, be laid waste unto desolation;
12 epi SENYÈ a fin retire moun yo byen lwen e plas abandone yo vin anpil nan mitan peyi a.
And Yahweh have far removed men, —And great! be the abandonment in the midst of the land.
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.”
Yet still shall there be in it a tenth, Though it again be consumed, —Like an oak and like a terebinth Which when felled, have a stock in them, A holy seed, shall be the stock thereof.
