Ezayi 7
1 Alò, li te vin rive nan jou Achaz yo, fis a Jotham la, fis a Ozias la, wa Juda a, ke Retsin, wa Syrie a ak Pékach, fis a Remalia a, wa Israël la, te monte vè Jérusalem pou fè lagè kont li, men yo pa t ka genyen l.
And it came to pass in the days of Achaz the son of Jotham, the son of 'Uzziyahu, the king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekach the son of Remalyahu, the king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it; but were not able to make an attack upon it.
2 Lè rapò a te rive kote lakay David e te di: “Siryen yo te fè kan Éphraïm”, ke Achaz ak kè pèp li te vin ajite tankou bwa forè k ap souke nan van.
And it was told unto the house of David, saying, Syria is encamped with Ephraim; and his heart trembled, with the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are shaken before the wind.
3 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di a Ésaïe: “Sòti la koulye a pou rankontre Achaz, ou menm ak fis ou, Schear-Jaschub, nan pwent kanal la premye ma dlo sou gran chemen ki mennen kote chan Foulon an.
And the Lord said unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Achaz, thou with Shear-yashub thy son, to the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the highway of the washer's field;
4 Epi di li: ‘Fè atansyon e rete kalm. Pa pè e pa dekouraje akoz grenn chouk sann cho sa yo k ap fè lafimen akoz de gwo kòlè Retsin ak Syrie, ak fis Remalia a.
And thou shalt say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, and let thy heart not become faint because of these two stumps of smoking firebrands, before the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remalyahu.
5 Paske Syrie, Éphraïm ak fis a Remalia yo, te fè plan mechanste kont ou e te di:
Forasmuch as Syria, [with] Ephraim and the son of Remalyahu, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
6 Annou monte kont Juda, teworize l, fè pou nou yon brèch nan miray li yo, e fè fis Tabeel la vin wa nan mitan li.”
Let us go up against Judah, and besiege it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set up as king in the midst of it the son of Tabeal:
7 Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Sa p ap kanpe, ni sa p ap pase.”
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, It shall not succeed, and it shall not come to pass.
8 Paske tèt Syrie a se Damas, tèt Damas se Retsin (e nan yon lòt swasann-senk ane, Éphraïm va kraze nèt jiskaske li pa menm yon pèp ankò),
For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin: and within sixty and five years shall Ephraim be broken, to be no more a people.
9 Epi tèt a Éphraïm se Samarie, tèt a Samarie se fis a Remalia a. Si ou pa kwè, anverite, ou p ap etabli.’”
And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remalyahu's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not have permanence.
10 SENYÈ a te pale ankò ak Achaz. Li te di:
And the Lord continued to speak unto Achaz, saying,
11 “Mande yon sign pou ou menm soti nan SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a; fè l nan fon a, tankou Sejou mò yo, oswa nan wotè tankou rive nan syèl la.” (Sheol h7585)
Ask thee a sign from the Lord thy God; ask it in the depth, or high up above. (Sheol h7585)
12 Men Achaz te di: “Mwen p ap mande, ni mwen p ap pase SENYÈ a a leprèv!”
But Achaz said, I will not ask, and I will not tempt the Lord.
13 Epi li te di: “Koute koulye a, O lakay David! Èske se yon bagay ki twò piti pou nou menm pou tante pasyans a lezòm, ke nou va tante pasyans a Bondye mwen an tou?
And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David! Is it too little for you to weary men, that ye will weary also my God?
14 Pou sa, SENYÈ a, Li menm, va bay nou yon sign: Gade byen, yon vyèj va vin ansent. Li va fè yon fis e li va rele non Li Emmanuel.
Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: behold, this young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and she shall call his name 'Immanu-el, [God with us].
15 Li va manje bòl lèt kaye ak siwo myèl nan lè Li gen konesans ase pou refize mal e chwazi sa ki bon.
Cream and honey shall he eat, so soon as he knoweth to refuse the evil, and to choose the good.
16 Paske avan jenn gason a va gen ase konesans pou refize mal e chwazi sa ki bon, peyi a de wa ke nou krent yo va abandone nèt.
For before yet the child shall know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good, shall be forsaken the land, of the kings of which thou feelest dread.
17 SENYÈ a va mennen fè rive sou nou, sou pèp nou an ak sou lakay papa nou, jou konsi ki pa t janm gen parèy depi jou ke Éphraïm te separe ak Juda a—Wa Assyrie a.
The Lord will bring over thee, and over thy people, and over thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim withdrew from Judah, —the king of Assyria.
18 Nan jou sa a, SENYÈ a va soufle mouch ki nan kote pi lwen nan rivyè Égypte yo ak foul myèl ki rete Assyrie yo.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that the Lord will call for the fly that is in the uttermost end of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
19 Yo tout va vini fè anplasman sou ravin apik yo, sou ti pla falèz yo, kloti bwa pikan yo ak sou tout sous patiraj bèt yo.
And they shall come, and shall encamp, all of them, in the desolate valleys, and in the clefts of the rocks, and upon all thorn-hedges, and upon all bushes.
20 Nan jou sa a, SENYÈ a va raze ak yon razwa, ki lwe soti nan rejyon lòtbò rivyè Euphrate la. Se wa Assyrie la menm. L ap manje tout jis nan tèt ak plim sou pye, pou l rive fin manje jis nan bab la.
On the same day will the Lord shave with the razor that is hired, from among those on the other side of the river, with the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and also the beard shall it entirely remove.
21 Alò, nan jou sa a, yon nonm ka fè viv yon sèl grenn gazèl bèf ak yon pè mouton.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that a man shall nourish [but] one young cow, and two sheep;
22 Men akoz gwo kantite lèt ki pwodwi, li va bwè bòl lèt kaye a, paske tout moun ki rete nan peyi a va bwè bòl lèt ak siwo myèl la.
And it shall happen, that for the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat cream; for cream and honey shall eat every one that is left in the midst of the land.
23 Konsa, li va rive nan jou sa a, ke tout kote ki te konn genyen mil pye rezen, ki te gen valè a mil sik ajan, va vin tounen raje ak pikan.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that every place, where there are [now] a thousand vines worth a thousand silver shekels, shall be, —yea, this shall be [given up] to briers and thorns.
24 Moun va vini la ak banza ak flèch yo akoz tout tè a va vin fè raje ak pikan.
With arrows and with bows shall men enter thither; because all the land shall become [covered with] briers and thorns.
25 Tout kolin ki te konn kiltive ak wou yo, nou p ap prale la akoz nou pè raje ak pikan. Li va devni yon kote pou pye bèf ak mouton pou yo foule l nèt.”
And all mountains that are worked with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: and they shall serve for the pasture of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.
