Malachi 2

1 “Alò, koulye a, prèt yo, lòd sa a se pou nou.

And now [is] to you the commandment this O priests.

2 Si nou pa koute e si nou pa pran sa a kè pou bay lonè a non Mwen”, pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, “alò, Mwen va voye malediksyon sou nou, e Mwen va fè benediksyon nou yo vin tounen malediksyon. Anverite, Mwen fin modi yo deja, akoz nou pa pran sa a kè.

If not you will listen and if not you will put on heart to give honor to name my he says Yahweh of hosts and I will send on you the curse and I will curse blessings your and also I have cursed it for not you [are] putting on heart.

3 Gade byen, Mwen va fè repwòch nou rive jis sou desandan nou yo, e Mwen va gaye poupou sou figi nou, menm poupou a festen nou yo; epi nou va vin disparèt ansanm avè l.

Here I [am] about to rebuke of you the offspring and I will spread dung on faces your [the] dung of festivals your and someone will carry away you with it.

4 Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen te voye lòd sa a bannou, pou akò Mwen an kapab kontinye ak Lévi”, pale SENYÈ dèzame yo.

And you will know that I have sent to you the commandment this to be covenant my with Levi he says Yahweh of hosts.

5 “Akò Mwen an avèk li se te akò pou lavi ak lapè. Mwen te bay li yo pou li ta kab vin gen lakrent anvè M; epi konsa, li te krent Mwen e te vin gen gwo lakrent pou non Mwen.

Covenant my - it was with him life and well-being and I gave them to him fear and he feared me and because of name my he was in awe he.

6 Lalwa verite a te nan bouch li, e inikite pa t janm sou lèv li. Li te mache avè M nan lapè ak ladwati, e li te detounen anpil moun soti nan inikite.

Instruction of truth it was in mouth his and unrighteousness not it was found on lips his in peace and in uprightness he walked with me and many [people] he turned away from iniquity.

7 Paske lèv a yon prèt dwe gade konesans, e moun ta dwe chache lalwa soti nan bouch li. Paske li se mesaje a SENYÈ dèzame yo.

For [the] lips of a priest they will preserve knowledge and instruction people will seek from mouth his for [is] [the] messenger of Yahweh of hosts he.

8 Men pou nou menm, nou te detounen kite chemen an. Nou te koze anpil moun chite nan lalwa a. Nou te dezonore akò Lévi a,” pale SENYÈ dèzame yo.

And you you have turned aside from the way you have caused to stumble many [people] by the instruction you have corrupted [the] covenant of Levi he says Yahweh of hosts.

9 “Akoz sa Mwen te fè nou vin meprizab tou, e vin imilye devan tout pèp la, akoz nou pa t gade chemen Mwen yo, men nou te nan patipri nan lalwa a.

And also I I have made you despised and lowly to all the people according to [the] mouth of that not you [are] keeping ways my and [you are] lifting up faces in instruction.

10 Èske se pa yon sèl papa nou genyen? Èske se pa yon sèl Bondye a ki te kreye nou? Poukisa nou chak ap trayi pwòp frè nou, nan pwofane akò a papa zansèt nou yo?

¿ Not [does] a father one [belong] to all of us ¿ not God one did he create us why? do we deal treacherously each with brother his to profane [the] covenant of ancestors our.

11 Juda te aji nan enfidelite, e yon abominasyon te fèt an Israël ak Jérusalem; paske Juda te pwofane sanktyè a SENYÈ a, ke li renmen, e te vin marye ak fi a yon dye etranje.

It has acted treacherously Judah and an abomination it has been done in Israel and in Jerusalem for - it has profaned Judah [the] sanctuary of Yahweh which he loves and it has married a daughter of a god of foreignness.

12 SENYÈ a va koupe retire nonm nan ki fè sa a, sila ki leve e sila ki reponn nan, soti nan tant a Jacob yo, oswa sila ki prezante ofrann a SENYÈ Dèzame yo.

May he cut off Yahweh the person who he does it a protector and [one who] answers from [the] tents of Jacob and [one who] brings near an offering to Yahweh of hosts.

13 “Men yon lòt bagay nou fè: nou kouvri lotèl SENYÈ a ak dlo k ap sòti nan zye nou, nan kriye ak plenyen, akoz Li pa konsidere ofrann yo ankò, ni aksepte yo ak favè ki soti nan men nou.

And this second [thing] you do to cover tear[s] [the] altar of Yahweh weeping and groaning from not still turning to the offering and to take pleasure from hand your.

14 Malgre sa, nou di: ‘Pou ki rezon?’ Paske SENYÈ a te yon temwen antre nou menm ak madanm jenès nou an, kont sila nou te aji an trèt la, malgre li se konpanyen e madanm nou selon akò nou an.

And you say concerning what? on for Yahweh he has testified between you and between - [the] wife of youth your whom you you have dealt treacherously with her and she [was] companion your and [the] wife of covenant your.

15 Éske Li pa t fè nou youn sèl? Malgre, se te li ki te gen retay Lespri a. Pouki sa youn sèl? Li t ap chache desandan ladwati a. Alò, veye lespri nou byen ke pèsòn pa aji an trèt kont madanm jenès li a.

And not one he made and a remnant of spirit to him and what? [was] the one seeking offspring of God and you will take heed in spirit your and with [the] wife of youth your may not anyone deal treacherously.

16 Youn ki rayi epidivòse”, pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, “kouvri vètman li ak vyolans lan,” pale SENYÈ a. “Pou sa, veye lespri nou byen, ke nou pa enfidèl.

For he hates sending away he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel and he will cover violence over clothing his he says Yahweh of hosts and you will take heed in spirit your and not you must act treacherously.

17 “Nou te fatige SENYÈ a ak pawòl nou yo. Malgre sa, nou di: ‘Nan kisa nou te fatige Li a?’ Paske n ap di: ‘Tout moun k ap fè mal, bon nan zye SENYÈ a, e Li pran plezi nan yo;’ oswa ‘Kote Bondye jistis la ye?’”

You have wearied Yahweh with words your and you say how? did we weary [him] by saying you every [one who] does evil [is] good - in [the] eyes of Yahweh and in them he he delights or where? [is] [the] God of justice.
