Ezayi 63
1 Se kilès sa ki sòti Edom an, avèk vètman Botsra byen kolore a? Kilès sila a, ak abiman majeste Li, k ap mache nan grandè ak fòs li a? “Se Mwen menm ki pale nan ladwati, ki pwisan pou delivre a.”
Who is this, who arrives from Edom with dyed garments from Bozrah? This is the Handsome One in his robe, advancing by the fullness of his strength. It is I, the Speaker of Justice, and I am the Fighter for Salvation.
2 Poukisa abiman Ou wouj e vètman Ou tankou sila k ap mache nan kivèt diven an?
So then, why is your garment red, and why are your vestments like the ones of those who tread the winepress?
3 “Mwen te foule nan kivèt diven an sèl, Pami pèp yo, pa t gen moun avè M. Anplis, Mwen te foule yo nan kòlè Mwen, e Mwen te mache kraze yo nan kòlè Mwen an. Gout san lavi yo te flite sou abiman Mwen e Mwen te tache tout vètman Mwen yo.
I have trod the winepress alone. And among the nations, there is no man beside me. I have trampled on them in my fury, and I have tread them down in my wrath. And so, their blood has been sprinkled on my vestments, and I have stained all my garments.
4 Paske jou vanjans lan te nan kè M; e ane racha a M yo rive.
For the day of vengeance is in my heart. The year of my redemption has arrived.
5 Mwen te gade e pa t gen pèsòn pou ede; Mwen te etone ke pa t gen pèsòn pou bay soutyen. Akoz sa pwòp bra M te pote Sali Mwen e kòlè Mwen te fè M kanpe.
I gazed around, and there was no one to assist. I sought, and there was no one who would help. And so, my own arm has saved for me, and my own wrath itself has assisted me.
6 Mwen te foule nasyon yo byen ba nan kòlè Mwen; Mwen te fè yo sou nan kòlè Mwen. Mwen te vide san lavi yo sou tè a.”
And I have trampled the peoples in my fury, and I have inebriated them with my indignation, and I have torn down their strength to the ground.
7 Mwen va pale de lanmou dous SENYÈ a, ak lwanj SENYÈ a. Apre tout sa ke SENYÈ a te bannou, ak gran bonte anvè lakay Israël ke Li te bay yo, selon labondans konpasyon li, epi selon gran mizerikòd Li.
I will remember the compassion of the Lord, the praise of the Lord over all that the Lord has bestowed on us, and over the multitude of his good things for the house of Israel, which he has granted to them according to his leniency, and according to the multitude of his mercies.
8 Paske Li te di: “Anverite, yo se pèp Mwen, fis ki p ap aji nan manti.” Pou sa, Li te devni Sovè yo.
And he said: “Yet truly, these are my people, sons who have not been disowned.” And he became their Savior.
9 Nan tout afliksyon yo, Li te aflije e zanj a prezans Li an te sove yo. Nan lanmou dous Li a ak mizerikòd Li, Li te rachte yo. Li te leve yo, e te pote yo pandan tout ansyen jou yo.
Throughout all their tribulation, he was not troubled, for the Angel of his presence saved them. With his love, and by his leniency, he has redeemed them, and he has carried them and lifted them up, throughout all the days of the ages.
10 Men yo te fè rebèl e konsa, yo te fè Lespri Sen Li an vin tris. Akoz sa, Li te vire Li menm, e Li te devni lènmi yo; Li te goumen kont yo pou kont Li.
But they themselves provoked to wrath and afflicted his Holy Spirit, and he was turned to be for them like an enemy, and he himself went to war against them.
11 Men konsa, Li a te vin sonje ansyen jou yo ak Moïse e pèp Li. Li te di “Kote Li, Sila ki te fè yo monte sòti nan lanmè ak bèje a bann mouton Li yo? Kote Li, Sila ki te mete Lespri Sen Li nan mitan yo a?”
And he remembered the days of ancient times, the days of Moses and his people. Where is he who led them out of the sea, with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who placed his Holy Spirit in their midst?
12 Ki te fè men glwa Li a ale akote men dwat Moïse la? Ki te divize dlo yo devan yo pou fè pou pwòp tèt Li yon non ki ta dire pou tout tan?
He led Moses by the right hand, with the arm of his majesty. He split the waters before them, in order to make an everlasting name for himself.
13 Ki te mennen yo atravè fon yo tankou cheval nan dezè a, pou yo pa chape tonbe?
He led them through the abyss, like a horse which does not stumble, in the desert.
14 Tankou bèt ki te desann nan vale yo, Lespri SENYÈ a te bay yo repo. Konsa, Ou te mennen pèp Ou a pou fè pou Ou yon non ki plen laglwa.
Like an animal who descends to an open field, the Spirit of the Lord was their guide. Thus did you lead your people, in order to make a glorious name for yourself.
15 Gade anba depi nan syèl la e wè soti nan abitasyon sen Ou ki plen ak glwa Ou. Kote zèl Ou ak zèv pwisan Ou yo? Santiman a kè ou ak konpasyon Ou te vin anpeche de mwen.
Gaze down from heaven, and behold from your holy habitation and from your glory. Where is your zeal, and your strength, the fullness of your heart and of your compassion? They have held themselves back from me.
16 Paske Ou se Papa nou, malgre Abraham pa rekonèt nou, ni Israël pa rekonèt nou. Ou menm, O SENYÈ, Ou se Papa nou, Redanmtè nou soti nan tan ansyen yo se non Ou.
For you are our Father, and Abraham has not known us, and Israel has been ignorant of us. You are our Father, O Lord our Redeemer. Your name is beyond all ages.
17 Poukisa, O SENYÈ, Ou fè nou egare kite chemen Ou yo? E te fè kè nou di pou nou pa gen lakrent Ou? Pou koz sèvitè Ou yo, tribi a eritaj Ou yo, retounen.
Why have you allowed us to stray from your ways, O Lord? Why have you hardened our heart, so that we do not fear you? Return, for the sake of your servants, the tribes of your inheritance.
18 Pèp sen Ou yo te posede sanktyè Ou a pou yon ti tan; advèsè nou yo te foule li ba nèt.
They have possessed your holy people as if it were nothing. Our enemies have trampled your sanctuary.
19 Nou te vin sanble ak sila ke Ou pa t janm gouvène yo, tankou sila ki pa t rele pa non Ou yo.
We have become as we were in the beginning, when you did not rule over us, and when we were not called by your name.
