< 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 comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this who is glorious in his clothing, marching in the greatness of his strength? "It is I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save."
2 Poukisa abiman Ou wouj e vètman Ou tankou sila k ap mache nan kivèt diven an?
Why are you red in your clothing, and your garments like him who treads in the wine vat?
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 trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yes, I trod them in my anger, and trampled them in my wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled on my garments, and I have stained all my clothing.
4 Paske jou vanjans lan te nan kè M; e ane racha a M yo rive.
For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redeemed has come.
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 looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore my own arm brought salvation to me; and my wrath, it upheld 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.”
I trod down the peoples in my anger, and made them drunk in my wrath, and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth."
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 make mention of the loving kindnesses of the LORD and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD has bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he has bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
8 Paske Li te di: “Anverite, yo se pèp Mwen, fis ki p ap aji nan manti.” Pou sa, Li te devni Sovè yo.
For he said, "Surely, they are my people, children who will not deal falsely:" so he was 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.
In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
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 rebelled, and grieved his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he himself fought 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?”
Then he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people, saying, Where is he who brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who put 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?
who caused his glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses? who divided the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
13 Ki te mennen yo atravè fon yo tankou cheval nan dezè a, pou yo pa chape tonbe?
who led them through the depths, as a horse in the wilderness, so that they did not stumble?
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.
As the livestock that go down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused them to rest; so you led your people, to make yourself a glorious name.
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.
Look down from heaven, and see from the habitation of your holiness and of your glory: where are your zeal and your mighty acts? the yearning of your heart and your compassion is restrained toward 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, though Abraham doesn't know us, and Israel does not acknowledge us: you, LORD, are our Father; our Redeemer from everlasting is your name.
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.
O LORD, why do you make us to stray from your ways, and harden our heart from your fear? Return for your servants' sake, 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.
Your holy people possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down 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 they over whom you never bear rule, as those who were not called by your name.
