< Revelasyon 18 >
1 Apre bagay sa yo, mwen te wè yon lòt zanj k ap desann sòti nan syèl la, avèk gwo otorite, e tè a te byen klere avèk glwa li.
And after that I sawe another angell come from heven havinge gret power and the erth was lyghtned with hys bryghtnes.
2 Epi li te kriye avèk yon gwo vwa, e t ap di: “Tonbe, tonbe, se Babylone Le Gran! Li gen tan vini yon kote pou dyab rete, ak yon prizon pou tout kalite lespri sal, e yon prizon pou tout kalite zwazo sal e abominab.
And he cryed myghtyly with a stronge voyce sayinge: Great Babilon is fallen ys fallen and ys become the habitation of devels and the holde of all fowle sprettes and a cage of all vnclene and hatefull byrdes
3 Paske tout nasyon yo te bwè diven a pasyon imoralite li a, wa latè yo te komèt zak imoralite avè l, e machann latè yo te vin rich avèk richès sansyalite li yo.”
for all nacions have dronken of the wyne of the wrath of her fornycacion. And the kynges of the erth have committed fornicacion with her and her marchauntes are wexed ryche of the abundance of her pleasures.
4 Mwen te tande yon lòt vwa soti nan syèl la ki t ap di: “Sòti kite li, pèp mwen an, pou nou pa patisipe nan peche li yo e resevwa fleyo li yo.
And I herde another voyce from heven saye: come a waye from her my people that ye be not parttakers in her synnes that ye receave not of her plages.
5 Paske peche li yo anpile vin menm wotè ak syèl la, e Bondye sonje tout inikite li yo.
For her synnes are gon vp to heven and God hath remembred her wyckednes.
6 Remèt li menm jan li te bay la, e ba li anretou de fwa selon zèv li yo. Nan gode ke li te fè melanj lan, fè melanj lan otan de fwa pou li.
Rewarde her even as she rewarded you and geve her dubble accordynge to her workes. And poure in dubble to her in the same cuppe which she fylled vnto you.
7 Nan degre ke li te bay tèt li glwa a e viv nan sansyalite a, nan menm degre a, toumante l, e ba li doulè. Paske li di nan kè li: “Mwen chita tankou yon rèn, mwen pa yon vèv, mwen p ap janm wè doulè.”
And as moche as she gloryfied her silfe and lyved wantanly so moche poure ye in for her of punysshment and sorowe for she sayde in her herte: I sytt beinge a quene and am no wyddowe and shall se no sorowe.
8 Pou rezon sa a, nan yon jou, fleyo li yo va vini; lapès, lapèn ak gwo grangou. E li va brile avèk dife, paske Senyè Bondye ki jije li a, pwisan.
Therfore shall her plages come at one daye deeth and sorowe and honger and she shallbe brent with fyre: for stronge ys the lorde god which iudgeth her.
9 “Epi wa latè yo ki te komèt zak imoralite e ki te viv selon lachè avè l yo, va kriye e lamante sou li lè yo wè lafimen monte pandan l ap brile a.
And the kynges of the erth shalbe wepe her and wayle over her which have committed fornicacion with her and have lyved wantanly with her when they shall se the smoke of her burnynge
10 Y ap kanpe a yon distans akoz de pè a toumant li an, e y ap di:” ‘Malè, malè, gran vil, Babylone nan, vil ki fò a! Paske, nan yon èdtan, jijman ou gen tan rive.’
and shall stonde a farre of for feare of her punnysshment sayinge: Alas Alas that gret cite Babilon that myghty cite: For at won houre is her iudgment come.
11 “Konsa, machann latè yo kriye e lamante sou li paske pèsòn pa achte machandiz yo ankò.
And the marchauntes of the erth shall wepe and wayle in them selves for no man wyll bye their ware eny more
12 Machandiz lò, ajan, pyè presye, pèl, ak lèn fen, koulè mov, twal swa, wouj, tout kalite bwa sitwon ak tout kalite ivwa, tout atik ki fèt ak bwa ki koute chè, bwonz, fè, ak wòch mab.
the ware of golde and silver and precious stones nether of pearle and raynes and purple and skarlet and all thyne wodde and almanner vessels of yvery and almanner vessels of most precious wodde and of brasse and of yron
13 Epi kanèl, epis, lansan, pafen, lwil doliv, farin fen, ble, bèf, mouton, ak kago bato cheval, cha, esklav, ak lavi moun.
and synamon and odours and oyntmentes and frankynsence and wyne and oyle and fyne floure and wheate bestes and shepe and horsys and charrettes and boddyes and soules of men.
14 “Fwi nou anvi yo disparèt, tout bagay ki te swa, chè oswa ekstrawòdinè yo te pase kite nou e moun p ap twouve yo ankò.
And the apples that thy soule lusted after are departed fro the. And all thynges which were deyntie and had in pryce ar departed fro the and thou shalt fynde them no more.
15 Machann a bagay sa yo, ki te vin rich akoz gran vil sa a va kanpe a yon distans akoz perèz toumant li an, yo va kriye e lamante.
The marchauntes of these thynges which were wexed ryche shall stonde a farre of from her for feare of the punyshment of her wepynge and waylynge
16 Yo va di: “Malè, malè, gran vil la, sila ki te abiye an lèn fen, mov e wouj la, ki te anbeli ak lò, pyè presye, ak pèl yo;
and saying: alas alas that grett cite that was clothed in raynes and purple and scarlett and decked with golde and precious stone and pearles:
17 Paske nan yon èdtan, gran richès sa a gen tan vin gaspiye!” Epi tout kaptenn bato ak tout pasaje, tout maren e tout sila ki fè lavi yo nan travay lanmè yo, te kanpe a yon distans.
for at one houre so great ryches ys come to nought And every shippe governer and all they that occupied shippes and shippmen which worke in the see stode a farre of
18 “E yo t ap kriye anmwey lè yo te wè lafimen dife li a, e t ap di: “Ki vil ki tankou gran vil sila a?”
and cryed when they sawe the smoke of her burnynge sayinge what cite is lyke vnto this grett cite?
19 Konsa, yo te jete pousyè sou tèt yo e t ap rele fò, kriye, lamante e t ap di: “Malè, malè a gran vil sa a, ladann tout moun ki te gen bato sou lanmè yo te vin rich pa richès li, paske nan yon èdtan, li vin gaspiye nèt!”
And they cast dust on their heddes and cryed wepynge and waylinge and sayed: Alas Alas yt greate cite wherin were made ryche all that had shyppes in the see by the reason of her costlynes for atone houre is she made desolate
20 “Rejwi sou li, o syèl, e nou menm, sen, apot ak pwofèt yo, paske Bondye te pwononse jijman pou nou kont li.”
Reioyce over her thou heven and ye holy Apostles and prophetes: for god hath geven youre iudgment on her.
21 Answit, yon zanj pwisan te pran yon gwo wòch tankou yon wòch moulen. Li te voye l nan lanmè a e te di: “Konsa, gran vil la, Babylone, va jete avèk vyolans, e li p ap twouve ankò.
And a myghty angell toke vp a stone lyke a grett mylstone and cast it into the see sayinge: with suche violence shall that gret cite Babilon be cast and shallbe founde no more.
22 Konsa, son sila k ap jwe ap yo, mizisyen yo, sila k ap jwe flit ak twonpèt yo p ap tande nan ou ankò. P ap ankò gen moun okenn metye k ap twouve nan ou ankò. Ni bri moulen an p ap tande nan ou.
And the voyce of harpers and musicions and of pypers and trompetters shalbe herde no more in the: and no craftes man of whatsoever craft he be shalbe founde eny more in the. and the soude of a myll shalbe herde no more in the
23 Menm limyè a yon lanp p ap briye nan ou, e vwa jennonm ak jenn fi k ap marye yo p ap tande nan ou ankò. “Paske machann ou yo te gwo moun sou latè, epi tout nasyon yo te twonpe pa wanga ou a.
and the voyce of the brydegrome and of the bryde shalbe herde no more in the: for thy marchauntes were ye grett men of ye erth. And with thyne inchantment were deceaved all nacions:
24 Nan li menm te twouve san a pwofèt ak sen yo, ak tout sila ki te touye sou latè yo.”
and in her was founde the bloude of the prophettes and of ye saynctes and of all that were slayne apon ye erth.
