1 Gade kijan Senyè a te kouvri fi a Sion an ak yon nwaj nan kòlè li! Li te jete soti nan syèl la, jis rive atè glwa Israël la. Li pa t menm sonje machpye pa L la, nan jou kòlè Li.
Aleph. Hou hath the Lord hilid the douyter of Sion with derknesse in his strong veniaunce? he hath caste doun fro heuene in to erthe the noble citee of Israel; and bithouyte not on the stool of hise feet, in the dai of his strong veniaunce.
2 Senyè a te vale tout nèt. Li pa t epanye tout abitasyon Jacob yo. Nan gwo chalè Li, Li te jete sitadèl fi a Juda a. Li te bese yo nèt jis rive atè. Li te pwofane wayòm nan ak tout prens li yo.
Beth. The Lord castide doun, and sparide not alle the faire thingis of Jacob; he distried in his strong veniaunce the strengthis of the virgyn of Juda, and castide doun in to erthe; he defoulide the rewme, and the princes therof.
3 Nan gwo chalè, Li te koupe tout fòs Israël la. Li te retire men dwat Li soti devan lènmi an. Konsa, Li te brile Jacob tankou flanm dife ki konsome toupatou.
Gymel. He brak in the ire of his strong veniaunce al the horn of Israel; he turnede a bak his riyt hond fro the face of the enemy; and he kyndlide in Jacob, as fier of flawme deuowrynge in cumpas.
4 Li te koube banza Li kon yon lènmi. Li te poze men dwat li konsi se yon advèsè. Konsa, Li te touye tout ki bèl pou gade. Nan tant a fi a Sion an, Li te vin vide gwo kòlè Li tankou dife.
Deleth. He as an enemye bente his bouwe, he as an aduersarie made stidfast his riyt hond; and he killide al thing that was fair in siyt in the tabernacle of the douytir of Sion; he schedde out his indignacioun as fier.
5 Senyè a vin tankou yon lènmi. Li te vale Israël nèt. Li te vale tout palè li yo. Li te detwi sitadèl li yo. Li te miltipliye doulè yo ak plent yo nan fi a Juda yo.
He. The Lord is maad as an enemy; he castide doun Israel, he castide doun alle the wallis therof; he destriede the strengthis therof, and fillide in the douyter of Juda a man maad low, and a womman maad low.
6 Ak vyolans, Li te aji sou tanp Li an, konsi se yon tonèl jaden. Li te detwi kote ke Li menm te deziye pou asanble yo. SENYÈ a te fè bliye tout jou fèt ak Saba Sion yo, e Li te meprize ni wa a, ni prèt la nan gwo kòlè Li a.
Vau. And he scateride his tent as a gardyn, he distried his tabernacle; the Lord yaf to foryetyng in Sion a feeste dai, and sabat; and the kyng and prest in to schenschipe, and in to the indignacioun of his strong veniaunce.
7 Senyè a te rejte lotèl Li a. Li te abandone sanktyè Li a. Li te livre nan men lènmi an, miray a palè li yo. Yo te fè yon bri nan kay SENYÈ a, konsi li ta nan yon jou fèt deziye.
Zai. The Lord puttide awei his auter, he curside his halewyng; he bitook in to the hondis of enemy the wallis of the touris therof; thei yauen vois in the hous of the Lord, as in a solempne dai.
8 SENYÈ a te pran desizyon pou detwi miray a fi a Sion an. Li te lonje yon lign. Li pa t ralanti men l nan destriksyon. Li te fè ni ranpa, ni miray la plen tristès; y ap kriye ansanm.
Heth. The Lord thouyte to distrie the wal of the douyter of Sion; he stretchide forth his coorde, and turnede not awei his hond fro perdicioun; the forwal, ether the outerward, mourenyde, and the wal was distried togidere.
9 Pòtay li yo te fonse antre nan tè, Li te detwi e kraze fè fòje a. Wa li yo ak prens li yo vin gaye pami nasyon yo; lalwa, nanpwen ankò. Anplis, pwofèt li yo pa resevwa vizyon de SENYÈ a.
Teth. The yatis therof ben piyt in the erthe, he loste and al to-brak the barris therof; the kyng therof and the princes therof among hethene men; the lawe is not, and the profetis therof founden not of the Lord a visioun.
10 Ansyen a fi a Sion yo chita atè. Yo rete an silans. Yo te jete pousyè sou tèt yo. Yo abiye yo ak twal sak. Vyèj Jérusalem yo fin bese tèt yo jis a tè a.
Joth. Thei saten in erthe, the elde men of the douytir of Sion weren stille; thei bispreynten her heedis with aische, the eldere men of Juda ben girt with hairis; the virgyns of Juda castiden doun to erthe her heedis.
11 Zye m gate akoz dlo k ap sòti ladann, lespri m vin nan gwo twoub; kè m vin vide atè nèt, akoz fi a pèp mwen an vin detwi e timoun ak tibebe yo ap fennen nan lari vil la.
Caph. Myn iyen failiden for teeris, myn entrails weren disturblid; my mawe was sched out in erthe on the sorewe of the douyter of my puple; whanne a litil child and soukynge failide in the stretis of the citee.
12 Yo mande manman yo: “Kote sereyal ak diven an?” Konsa, yo fennen tankou yon nonm ki blese nan lari vil yo, pandan lavi yo menm vin vide nan sen manman yo.
Lameth. Thei seiden to her modris, Where is wheete, and wyn? whanne thei failiden as woundid men in the stretis of the citee; whanne thei senten out her soulis in the bosum of her modris.
13 Kisa pou m ta di ou? A kilès pou m ta konpare ou, O fi Jérusalem nan? A kisa pou m ta di ou sanble pandan mwen ap mennen rekonfò bay ou a, O fi vyèj a Sion an? Paske destriksyon ou an vast tankou lanmè. Se kilès ki ka geri ou?
Men. To whom schal Y comparisoun thee? ether to whom schal Y licne thee, thou douyter of Jerusalem? to whom schal Y make thee euene, and schal Y coumforte thee, thou virgyn, the douyter of Sion? for whi thi sorewe is greet as the see; who schal do medicyn to thee?
14 Pwofèt ou yo te wè pou ou vizyon ki te fo; ki te plen foli. Yo pa t dekouvri inikite ou pou restore ou sòti an kaptivite, men yo te wè pou ou vizyon pòt pawòl ki te fo, ki te egare ou.
Nun. Thi profetis sien to thee false thingis, and fonned; and openyden not thi wickidnesse, that thei schulden stire thee to penaunce; but thei sien to thee false takyngis, and castyngis out.
15 Tout moun ki pase akote chemen an bat men yo pou moke ou. Yo sifle anlè kon koulèv sou fi Jérusalem nan, epi yo di: “Men èske se vil sa a yo te konn rele ‘pèfeksyon a bèlte a, yon jwa de tout tè a’?”
Sameth. Alle men passynge on the weie flappiden with hondis on thee; thei hissiden, and mouyden her heed on the douyter of Jerusalem; and seiden, This is the citee of perfit fairnesse, the ioie of al erthe.
16 Tout lènmi ou yo te louvri bouch yo laj kont ou. Yo sifle anlè kon koulèv. Yo fwote dan yo. Yo di: “Nou te vale l nèt! Anverite, se jou sa ke nou t ap tann nan. Nou gen tan jwenn li. Nou gen tan wè l.”
Ayn. Alle thin enemyes openyden her mouth on thee; thei hissiden, and gnaistiden with her teeth, and seiden, We schulen deuoure; lo! this is the dai which we abididen, we founden, we sien.
17 SENYÈ a te acheve objektif Li; Li te akonpli pawòl Li, pawòl ke Li te kòmande soti nan jou ansyen yo. Li te jete ba, Li pat fè pitye. Li te fè lènmi an rejwi sou ou. Li te egzalte pwisans a advèsè ou yo.
Phe. The Lord dide tho thingis whiche he thouyte, he fillide hise word which he hadde comaundid fro elde daies; he distriede, and sparide not; and made glad the enemy on thee, and enhaunside the horn of thin enemyes.
18 Kè yo te kriye fò a Senyè a. O miray a fi Sion an, kite dlo sòti nan zye ou lajounen kon lannwit. Pa aksepte okenn soulajman; 'Pa kite zye ou pran repo.
Sade. The herte of hem criede to the Lord, on the wallis of the douyter of Syon; leede thou forth teeris as a stronde, bi dai and niyt; yyue thou not reste to thee, nether the appil of thin iye be stille.
19 Leve, kriye fò nan nwit lan, nan kòmansman vèy nwit lan! Vide kè ou konsi se dlo devan prezans Senyè a. Leve men ou a Li menm pou lavi pitit ou yo ki fèb nèt ak grangou sou tèt a tout ri yo.
Coph. Rise thou togidere, herie thou in the nyyt, in the begynnyng of wakyngis; schede out thin herte as watir, bifore the siyt of the Lord; reise thin hondis to hym for the soulis of thi litle children, that failiden for hungur in the heed of alle meetyngis of weies.
20 Gade pou wè, O SENYÈ! Avèk kilès ou te aji konsa? Èske fanm ta dwe manje pwòp pitit pa yo, pitit yo ki te fèt an bòn sante? Èske prèt la ak pwofèt la dwe vin touye nan sanktyè Senyè a?
Res. Se thou, Lord, and byholde, whom thou hast maad so bare; therfor whether wymmen schulen ete her fruyt, litle children at the mesure of an hond? for a prest and profete is slayn in the seyntuarie of the Lord.
21 Sou tè nan lari yo, kouche jenn yo ak granmoun yo. Vyèj mwen yo ak jennonm mwen yo te tonbe sou nepe. Ou te touye yo nan jou gwo kòlè Ou a; Ou te fè masak, san pitye.
Syn. A child and an elde man laien on the erthe withoutforth; my virgyns and my yonge men fellen doun bi swerd; thou hast slayn hem in the dai of thi strong veniaunce, thou smotist `and didist no merci.
22 Ou te rele nou konsi se nan jou a yon fèt etabli, gwo laperèz mwen yo tout kote. Nanpwen moun ki te chape sòti vivan nan jou kòlè SENYÈ a. Sila ke m te fè e leve yo, lènmi m te anile yo nèt.
Thau. Thou clepidist, as to a solempne dai, hem that maden me aferd of cumpas; and noon was that ascapide in the dai of the strong veniaunce of the Lord, and was left; myn enemy wastide hem, whiche Y fedde, and nurschide up.
