Ezayi 62
1 Pou koz Sion, Mwen p ap rete an silans e pou koz Jérusalem, Mwen p ap rete san pawòl, jiskaske ladwati li vin parèt tankou gran limyè e sali li tankou yon tòch k ap brile.
I can't remain silent because of my love for Zion, I can't keep quiet because of my love for Jerusalem, until her integrity shines like a beam of light, until her salvation blazes like a burning torch.
2 Nasyon yo va wè ladwati ou e tout wa yo glwa ou. Konsa, ou va rele pa yon non nouvo ke bouch SENYÈ a va bay.
The nations will see the way you live right, and all the kings will see how you are blessed, and you will be called by a new name that the Lord gives you.
3 Anplis, ou va yon kouwòn byen bèl nan men SENYÈ a, e yon dyadèm wayal nan men Bondye ou a.
You will be a crown of beauty in the Lord's hand; a royal head-dress in the hand of your God.
4 Sa p ap di a ou menm ankò: “Abandone”, ni a peyi ou, yo p ap di ankò: “Dezole”; men ou va rele: “Plezi Mwen nan li”, epi peyi ou: “Marye”. Paske SENYÈ a pran plezi nan ou e a Li menm, peyi ou va marye.
You won't be called Abandoned anymore; your land won't be called Desolate. Instead you will be called She Makes Me Happy, and your land will be called Married, because you make the Lord happy, and your land will be married.
5 Paske menm jan ke yon jennonm marye ak yon vyèj, konsa fis ou yo va marye avèk ou; epi menm jan jennonm maryaj la ap rejwi ak jenn fi maryaj la, konsa Bondye ou a va rejwi ak ou.
For just like a young man marries a young woman, so your sons will marry you; and like a groom is happy with his bride, so your God will be happy with you.
6 Sou miray ou yo, O Jérusalem, Mwen te plase gadyen yo. Tout lajounen ak tout lannwit, yo p ap janm rete an silans. Nou menm ki raple SENYÈ a, pa pran repo pou tèt nou;
I have placed watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they won't ever be silent, day or night. You who pray to the Lord, don't ever stop and take a rest.
7 ni pa bay Li repo jiskaske Li etabli e fè Jérusalem yon lwanj sou tout tè a.
Don't give the Lord a rest either, until he finishes his work, until he makes Jerusalem the most praiseworthy place on earth.
8 SENYÈ a te sèmante pa men dwat Li e pa men pwisan Li: “Mwen p ap janm bay sereyal pa ou ankò kon manje pou lènmi ou yo; ni etranje yo p ap janm bwè diven nèf pou sila ou te depanse fòs ou a.”
The Lord has made a solemn promise, swearing by his power and might: I won't ever again let your enemies have your grain to eat, or let foreigners drink the new wine you worked hard for.
9 Men sila ki ranmase li, se yo k ap manje li e louwe SENYÈ a. Sila ki rekòlte li yo va bwè li nan lakou sanktiyè pa Mwen an.
Instead, those who harvest the grain will eat it and praise the Lord, and those who harvest the grapes for the wine will drink it in the courts of my Temple.
10 Antre ladann, antre nan pòtay yo! Netwaye chemen an pou pèp la! Bati, bati chemen an! Retire wòch yo, leve yon drapo sou nasyon yo.
Exit! Exit through the gates! Clear the way for the people! Build the highway! Get rid of any rocks on the road! Lift up a flag so the nations can see!
11 Gade byen, SENYÈ a te pwoklame a pwent tè a: “Di a fi Sion an: ‘Men sali ou a rive! Gade byen rekonpans Li avè L e rekonpans Li devan L!’”
See! The Lord has announced to everyone on earth, Tell the Daughter of Zion: Look! Your Savior is coming. He's bringing his reward with him, coming to give his gift!
12 Konsa, yo va rele yo: “Pèp sen an, rachte a SENYÈ yo”. Ou va rele: “Sila Ki Chache e ki vin twouve a, Yon Vil Ki Pa Abandone.”
They will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of the Lord; and you will be called the Sought-After Place, A City No Longer Abandoned.
