< Ezayi 61 >
1 Lespri Senyè BONDYE a sou mwen, akoz SENYÈ a te onksyone mwen pou pote bòn nouvèl a moun aflije yo. Li te voye mwen pou bay soutyen a sila ak kè brize yo, pou pwoklame libète a kaptif yo e delivrans a prizonye yo;
The Spirit of the Master YHWH is upon me; because YHWH hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 pou pwoklame lane gras SENYÈ a e jou a vanjans Bondye nou an; pou konsole tout moun ak kè ki tris,
To proclaim the acceptable year of YHWH, and the day of vengeance of our Elohim; to comfort all that mourn;
3 pou fè pwovizyon pou sila ak kè tris Sion yo; pou bay yo yon bèl kouwòn pou ranplase sann yo, ak lwil kè kontan pou ranplase tristès la, ak abiman lwanj pou ranplase lespri kraze a. Konsa, yo va rele pye chenn ladwati, yon plantasyon SENYÈ a, pou Li kapab resevwa glwa.
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of YHWH, that he might be glorified.
4 Yo va rebati ansyen mazi yo, yo va fè leve wo sa ki te kraze depi lontan yo. Yo va repare vil ki te detwi yo, dezolasyon de anpil jenerasyon yo.
And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
5 Etranje yo va kanpe pou okipe bann mouton nou yo, e pitit a etranje yo va kiltivatè tè nou, ak chan rezen nou yo.
And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
6 Men nou va rele kon prèt SENYÈ a; Lèzòm va rele nou sèvitè yo a Bondye nou an. Nou va manje richès a nasyon yo, e nan richès pa yo, nou va vante tèt nou.
But ye shall be named the Priests of YHWH: men shall call you the Ministers of our Elohim: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
7 Olye de wont nou, nou va gen yon pòsyon doub; olye de imilyasyon, yo va rele ak lajwa sou pòsyon pa yo. Akoz sa, yo va posede yon pòsyon doub nan peyi yo; lajwa etènèl la va pou yo.
For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.
8 Paske Mwen, SENYÈ a, renmen lajistis; Mwen rayi vòl ak malfezans. Ak fidelite Mwen va bay yo rekonpans yo, e Mwen va fè yon akò k ap dire pou tout tan avèk yo.
For I YHWH love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Desandan pa yo va rekonèt pami nasyon yo, e posterite yo nan mitan a tout pèp yo. Tout moun ki wè yo va rekonèt yo, akoz yo se desandan ke SENYÈ a te beni yo.
And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which YHWH hath blessed.
10 Mwen va rejwi anpil nan SENYÈ a; nanm mwen va rejwi anpil nan Bondyè mwen an, paske Li te abiye mwen ak vètman sali yo. Li te vlope m nan yon manto ladwati, tankou yon jennonm fenk marye dekore kò l ak yon kouwòn; e tankou yon jenn fi maryaj abiye kò l ak bijou.
I will greatly rejoice in YHWH, my soul shall be joyful in my Elohim; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.
11 Paske jan tè a fè boujon li vin parèt la, jaden an fè bagay ki simen ladann yo vin pete grandi, konsa Senyè BONDYE a va fè ladwati ak lwanj pete grandi devan tout nasyon yo.
For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Master YHWH will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
