< Abdias 1 >
1 Vizyon Abdias la. Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a konsènan Édom. Nou te tande yon rapò soti nan SENYÈ a, yon mesaje te voye pami nasyon yo. Li t ap di: “Leve, annou ale goumen kont li”—
Visioun of Abdias. The Lord God seith these thingis to Edom. We herden an heryng of the Lord, and he sente a messanger to hethene men. Rise ye, and togidere rise we ayens hym in to batel.
2 Gade byen, Mwen va fè ou vin piti pami nasyon yo. Ou vin meprize anpil.
Lo! Y yaf thee litil in hethene men, thou art ful myche `worthi to be dispisid.
3 Awogans a kè nou te twonpe nou, nou menm ki rete nan falèz wòch yo, nan wotè a abitasyon nou, ki di nan kè nou: “Se kilès ki ka rale m rive atè?”
The pride of thin herte enhaunside thee, dwellynge in crasyngis of stoonys, areisynge thi seete. Whiche seist in thin herte, Who schal drawe me doun in to erthe?
4 “Menmsi nou bati anlè tankou èg, menmsi nou mete nich nou pami zetwal yo, mwen va rale nou fè nou desann soti la,” deklare SENYÈ a.
Thouy thou schalt be reisid as an egle, and thouy thou schalt putte thi nest among sterris, fro thennus Y schal drawe thee doun, seith the Lord.
5 Si vòlè te vin kote nou, vòlè nan lannwit yo— o ala devaste nou va vin devaste— èske yo pa t ap vòlè sèlman pou yo ta jwenn ase? Si ranmasè rezen yo te rive kote nou èske yo pa t ap kite kèk ti rès?
If niyt theuys hadden entrid to thee, if outlawis bi niyt, hou schuldist thou haue be stille? whether thei schulden not haue stole thingis ynow to hem? If gadereris of grapis hadden entrid to thee, whether thei schulden haue left nameli clustris to thee?
6 Ala depouye Ésaü va vin depouye! Ala fouye yo va fouye trezò kache li yo!
Hou souyten thei Esau, serchiden the hid thingis of him?
7 Tout sila ki fè alyans avèk nou yo va voye nou kote fwontyè a. Sila ki anpè ak nou yo te twonpe nou, e yo deja genyen nou. Zanmi ki manje pen nou yo ap fè pèlen pou nou. Nanpwen bon konprann nan li.
Til to the termes thei senten out thee; and alle men of thi couenaunt of pees scorneden thee, men of thi pees wexiden stronge ayens thee; thei that schulen ete with thee, schulen put aspies, ether tresouns, vndur thee; ther is no prudence in hym.
8 Èske Mwen p ap nan jou sa a, deklare SENYÈ a; “Detwi mesye saj Édom yo, e retire bon konprann ki soti sou mòn Ésaü a?
Whether not in that dai, seith the Lord, Y schal lese the wise men of Idumee, and prudence of the mount of Esau?
9 Answit, mesye pwisan nou yo va vin enkyete, O Théman, jis tout kapab koupe retire nèt de mòn Ésaü ak gwo masak.
And thi stronge men schulen drede of myddai, that a man of the hil of Esau perische.
10 Akoz vyolans anvè frè nou Jacob, nou va vin kouvri ak wont, e nou va vin koupe retire nèt jis pou tout tan.
For sleyng and for wickidnesse ayens thi brother Jacob, confusioun schal hile thee, and thou schalt perische with outen ende.
11 Nan jou ke nou te kanpe a distans, nan jou ke etranje yo te bwote tout byen li, lòt nasyon yo te antre nan pòtay li, e te fè tiraj osò pou Jérusalem—nou menm tou te sanble ak yo.
In the dai whanne thou stodist ayens hym, whanne aliens token the oost of hym, and straungeris entriden the yatis of hym, and senten lot on Jerusalem, thou were also as oon of hem.
12 Pa vin rejwi ou nan jou malè frè ou a, ni pa rejwi ou sou fis a Juda yo nan jou destriksyon yo a. Pa anfle ou menm nan jou malè yo.
And thou schalt not dispise in the dai of thi brother, in the dai of his pilgrimage, and thou schalt not be glad on the sones of Juda, in the dai of perdicioun of hem; and thou schalt not magnefie thi mouth in the dai of angwisch,
13 Pa antre nan pòtay pèp Mwen an nan jou malè yo. Ni pa rejwi ou de gwo dega nan jou malè yo. Pa piyaje byen yo nan jou malè yo.
nether schalt entre in to the yate of my puple, in the dai of fallyng of hem; and thou schalt not dispise in the yuels of hym, in the dai of his distriyng; and thou schalt not be sent out ayens his oost, in the day of his distriyng;
14 Pa kanpe nan kafou chemen pou touye sila k ap sove ale sòti nan yo. Epi pa livre a lènmi sila ki chape nan jou malè yo.
nether thou schalt stonde in the goynges out, that thou sle hem that fledden; and thou schalt not close togidere the residues, ether left men, of hym, in the day of tribulacioun,
15 Paske jou SENYÈ a ap rapwoche sou tout nasyon yo! Jan ou te fè a, se konsa yo va fè ou.
for the dai of the Lord is niy on alle `hethene men. As thou hast doon, it schal be doon to thee; he schal conuerte thi yeldyng in to thin heed.
16 Paske menm jan ou te bwè sou mòn sen Mwen an, Konsa tout nasyon yo va bwè tout tan. Yo va bwè, yo va vale, l ap vin konsi yo pa t janm te la.
For as ye drunken on myn hooli hil, alle hethene men schulen drynke bisili, and thei schulen drynke, and schulen soupe vp; and thei schulen be as if thei ben not.
17 Men sou mòn Sion, va genyen sila ki chape yo, e mòn sa va sen. Epi lakay Jacob va posede posesyon yo.
And saluacioun schal be in the hil of Sion, and it schal be hooli; and the hous of Jacob schal welde hem whiche weldiden hem.
18 Answit, lakay Jacob va vin yon dife, e lakay Joseph va vin yon flanm; men lakay Ésaü va vin kon pay. Konsa, yo va limen dife sou yo pou brile yo nèt pou pa gen ki rete lakay Ésaü ankò,” paske SENYÈ a fin pale.
And the hous of Jacob schal be fier, and the hous of Joseph schal be flawme, and the hous of Esau schal be stobil; and `thei schulen be kyndlid in hem, and thei schulen deuoure hem; and relifs schulen not be of the hous of Esau, for the Lord spak.
19 Moun Negev la va vin posede mòn a Ésaü ak sila a Schfela yo, gwo plèn Philistie a. Yo va posede teritwa Éphraïm, teritwa Samarie, e Benjamin va vin posede Galaad, tou.
And these that ben at the south, schulen enherite the hil of Esau; and thei that ben in the lowe feeldis, schulen enherite Filistiym; and thei schulen welde the cuntrei of Effraym, and cuntrei of Samarie; and Beniamyn schal welde Galaad.
20 Epi egzile a lame fis Israël sa a, ki pami Kananeyen yo, va posede jis rive Sarepta, e egzile Jérusalem ki Sepharad yo va vin posede vil Negev yo.
And ouerpassyng of this oost of sones of Israel schal welde alle places of Cananeis, til to Sarepta; and the transmygracioun of Jerusalem, that is in Bosphoro, schal welde citees of the south.
21 Liberatè yo va monte Mòn Sion pou jije mòn Ésaü a e wayòm nan va vin pou a SENYÈ a.
And sauyours schulen stie in to the hil of Sion, for to deme the hil of Esau, and a rewme schal be to the Lord.
