Revelasyon 13
1 Dragon an te kanpe sou sab lanmè a. Mwen te wè yon bèt ki sòti nan lanmè a, avèk dis kòn, ak sèt tèt. Sou kòn li yo, te gen dis kouwòn, e sou tèt li te gen non blasfematè yo.
Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.
2 Bèt ke m te wè a te tankou yon leyopa. Pat li yo te tankou pat a yon lous, e bouch li te tankou bouch a yon lyon. Konsa, dragon an te ba li pouvwa li a, twòn li an, ak gran otorite.
The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
3 Mwen te wè youn nan tèt li yo kòmsi li te fin touye, e blese fatal li a te fin geri. Tout latè te etone, e yo te swiv bèt la.
One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marvelled at the beast.
4 Yo te adore dragon an paske li te bay otorite a bèt la, epi yo te adore bèt la. Yo t ap di: “Kilès ki tankou bèt la, e kilès ki kapab fè lagè avè l?”
They worshipped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”
5 Li te resevwa yon bouch pou pale pawòl ki awogan yo avèk blasfèm, e li te resevwa otorite pou aji pandan karant-de mwa.
A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.
6 Li te ouvri bouch li ak blasfèm yo kont Bondye, pou blasfeme non Li ak tabènak Li a, ak sila ki rete nan syèl yo.
He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, his dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven.
7 Pouvwa a te osi bay a li menm pou fè lagè avèk sen yo, e pou venk yo. Epi otorite sou chak tribi, pèp, lang, ak nasyon, te vin bay a li menm.
It was given to him to make war with the holy ones and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.
8 Tout moun ki viv sou tè a va adore l, tout moun ke non yo pa ekri depi nan fondasyon mond lan, nan liv lavi a Jèn Mouton ki te touye a.
All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.
9 Si yon moun gen yon zorèy, kite l tande.
If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
10 Si yon moun gen pou ale an kaptivite, an kaptivite li prale. Si yon moun dwe touye avèk nepe, avèk nepe, li va touye. Se konsa ak lafwa ak pèseverans a sen yo.
If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the holy ones.
11 Answit, mwen te wè yon lòt bèt ki t ap vin sòti anba tè a. Li te gen de kòn tankou yon jenn mouton, e li te pale tankou yon dragon.
I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon.
12 Li egzèse tout otorite a premye bèt la nan prezans li. Epi li fè tè a avèk sila ki rete ladann yo adore premye bèt, ki te gen blese fatal ki te geri a.
He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
13 Li fè gwo sign, jis pou fè dife sòti nan syèl la rive sou tè a devan prezans a moun yo.
He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.
14 E li twonpe sila ki viv sou latè yo, akoz gwo sign ki te bay a li menm pou fè nan prezans a bèt la. Li pale ak sila ki viv sou latè yo pou yo fè yon imaj a bèt ki te gen blese nepe a, e ki te viv.
He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast, saying to those who dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.
15 Konsa, pouvwa a te bay a li menm pou bay souf a imaj bèt la, pou imaj a bèt la ta kapab menm pale e fè tout sila ki refize adore bèt la touye.
It was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn’t worship the image of the beast to be killed.
16 Konsa, li koze tout moun, piti kon gran, rich kon malere, moun lib kon esklav, vin resevwa yon mak sou men dwat oswa sou fon yo,
He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands or on their foreheads;
17 pou pèsòn pa kapab ni achte ni vann, eksepte sila ki pote mak la, ki se non a bèt la oswa chif non li an.
and that no one would be able to buy or to sell unless he has that mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
18 Men sajès. Kite sila ki gen bon konprann nan, kalkile chif a bèt la, paske chif la se sa ki pou yon moun. E chif li a se sis-san-swasann-sis.
Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred and sixty-six.
