Malachi 1
1 Revelasyon pawòl SENYÈ a bay Israël pa Malachie.
[the] oracle of [the] word of Yahweh to Israel by [the] hand of Malachi.
2 “Mwen te renmen nou,” pale SENYÈ a. Men ou di: “Nan kisa ou te renmen nou an?” “Se pa Ésaü ki te frè Jacob?” deklare SENYÈ a. “Men se Jacob Mwen te renmen;
I have loved you he says Yahweh and you say how? have you loved us ¿ not [did] a brother Esau [belong] to Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh and I loved Jacob.
3 men Mwen te rayi Ésaü. Mwen te fè mòn li yo vin yon kote dezole, e Mwen te livre eritaj li bay chen mawon dezè yo.”
And Esau I hated and I have made mountains his a waste and inheritance his for jackals of [the] wilderness.
4 Tandiske Edom di: “Yo fin bat nou nèt, men nou va retounen vin bati sou ranblè yo;” konsa pale SENYÈ Dèzame yo: “Yo va bati, men mwen va jete; konsa, moun va rele yo peyi mechan an, e pèp sou sila SENYÈ a fache pou tout tan an.”
For it will say Edom we have been shattered and we may return so we may rebuild [the] ruins thus he says Yahweh of hosts they they will build and I I will tear down and people will call them a territory of wickedness and the people which he was indignant Yahweh until perpetuity.
5 Zye nou va wè sa e nou va di: “SENYÈ a gran, menm pi lwen lizyè Israël la!”
And eyes your they will see and you you will say he is great Yahweh over [the] border of Israel.
6 “Yon fis onore papa li, e yon sèvitè onore mèt li. Alò, si Mwen se yon papa, kote onè pa M nan? Epi si Mwen se yon mèt, kote respè M nan?” pale SENYÈ Dèzame yo a prèt yo ki meprize non Mwen an. “Men nou di: ‘Nan kisa nou te meprize non Ou an?’
A son he honors a father and a servant master his and if [am] a father I where? [is] honor my and if [am] a master I where? [is] fear my he says - Yahweh of hosts to you O priests [who] despise name my and you say how? have we despised name your.
7 N ap ofri pen ki souye sou lotèl Mwen an. Men nou di: ‘Nan kisa nou te souye Ou a?’ Nan sa, n ap di: ‘Tab SENYÈ a meprizab.’
[you are] bringing near On altar my food defiled and you say how? have we defiled you by saying you [the] table of Yahweh [is] despicable it.
8 Lè nou ofri bèt avèg kon sakrifis la, èske sa pa yon mal? Epi lè nou ofri bèt ki bwate, e ki malad la, èske sa pa yon mal? Poukisa nou pa ofri sa yo bay gwo chèf peyi a? Èske l ap kontan avèk nou? Oswa, èske se ak dousè ak kè kontan ke l ap aksepte nou?” pale SENYÈ Dèzame yo.
And if you bring near! a blind [animal] to sacrifice not? [is it] evil and if you bring near a lame [animal] and a sick [animal] [is it] not? evil bring near it please to governor your ¿ will he be pleased with you or ¿ will he lift up face your he says Yahweh of hosts.
9 Men koulye a, chèche mande favè Bondye, pou Li kapab beni nou? Ak yon ofrann konsa, èske L ap aksepte okenn nan nou ak dousè? mande SENYÈ Dèzame yo.
And now entreat please [the] face of God so he may show favor to us from hand your it was this ¿ will he lift up any of you face he says Yahweh of hosts.
10 O ke te genyen youn nan nou pou ta fèmen pòt yo, pou nou pa ta chofe dife pou granmèsi sou lotèl Mwen an! “Mwen pa kontan avèk nou”, pale SENYÈ Dèzame yo. “Ofrann nan k ap sòti nan men nou, Mwen p ap aksepte l nonpli.
Who? also [is] among you so he may shut [the] doors and not you will set light to altar my in vain not [belongs] to me pleasure in you he says Yahweh of hosts and an offering not I will accept from hand your.
11 Paske depi solèy la leve jis rive kote li kouche a, non Mwen va gran pami nasyon yo, e tout kote, lansan ak ofrann sereyal ki san tach va vin ofri a non Mwen. Paske non Mwen va gran pami nasyon yo,” pale SENYÈ Dèzame yo.
For from [the] rising of [the] sun and to setting its [is] great name my among the nations and in every place incense [is being] brought near to name my and an offering a pure for [is] great name my among the nations he says Yahweh of hosts.
12 “Men nou ap pwofane li lè nou di: ‘Tab SENYÈ a vin souye, fwi li, menm manje li vin meprizab.’
And you [are] profaning it by saying you [the] table of [the] Lord [is] defiled it and fruit its [is] despicable food its.
13 Nou di tou: ‘Gade, a la fatigan sa fatigan!’ Nou pa vle menm pran sant li,” pale SENYÈ Dèzame yo. “Konsa, nou te pote sa ke yo te pran nan vyolans, sa ki te bwate ak sa ki te malad. Konsa menm, nou pote ofrann nan! Èske se sa ke Mwen ta dwe aksepte nan men nou an?” pale SENYÈ a.
And you say there! what weariness! and you sniff at it he says Yahweh of hosts and you bring a stolen [animal] and the lame [animal] and the sick [animal] and you bring the offering ¿ will I accept it from hand your he says Yahweh.
14 “Men malè pou sila k ap twonpe a, ki gen nan bann mouton li an, yon mal, ki fè sèman pou livre li, men ki anfen, fè sakrifis bay SENYÈ a ak yon bèt ki gen defo. Paske Mwen se yon gwo Wa,” pale SENYÈ Dèzame yo, “e non Mwen etonnan pami nasyon yo.”
And [be] cursed [one who] deals deceptively and there among flock his [is] a male and [one who] makes a vow and [one who] sacrifices a blemished [animal] to [the] Lord for [am] a king great I he says Yahweh of hosts and name my [is] feared among the nations.
