Zakari 14
1 Gade byen, yon jou pou SENYÈ a ap vini, jou lè piyaj ke yo rache de nou menm yo, va divize andedan nou.
A day is coming for the Lord, when your plundered possessions will be divided while you watch.
2 Paske Mwen va rasanble tout nasyon yo kont Jérusalem pou batay. Vil la va vin kaptire, kay yo va piyaje, fanm yo va vyole. Mwatye nan vil la va voye an egzil, men rès a pèp la p ap koupe retire de vil la.
And all the nations will gather to Jerusalem, to fight against it. The city will be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city will go into captivity, and the rest of the people left in the ruins.
3 Konsa, SENYÈ a va parèt pou goumen kont nasyon sila yo, jan Li goumen nan yon jou batay la.
Then the Lord will go forth and fight against these nations, as once he fought in the day of battle.
4 Nan jou sa a, pye Li va poze sou Mòn Olivier a, ki devan Jérusalem sou pati lès la. Epi Mòn Olivier a va fann nan mitan soti nan lès pou rive nan lwès, e va gen yon gwo gwo vale. Mwatye nan mòn nan va deplase vè nò e lòt mwatye a vè sid.
On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, (which is opposite Jerusalem, on the east). The Mount of Olives will be split into halves, from east to west, by an exceedingly great valley; and half of the mountain will slide northwards and half southwards.
5 Nou va sove ale pa vale a mòn Mwen yo, paske vale a mòn yo va rive jis Atzel. Wi, nou va sove ale menm jan ke nou te sove ale devan tranbleman tè nan jou Ozias la, wa Juda a. Epi SENYÈ a, Bondye mwen an va vini e tout sen fidèl yo va avèk Li!
You will escape through my valley – the valley between the hills will extend as far as Azel, and you will flee as you fled from before the earthquake, in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. But the Lord your God will come, and all the holy ones with him.
6 Nan jou sa a p ap gen limyè, ni fredi, ni glas sou tè.
And in that day, there will be no heat nor cold nor frost,
7 Li va yon jou inik ki konnen pa SENYÈ a; li p ap ni lajounen ni lannwit, men li va vin rive ke nan aswè, va gen limyè.
but it will be constant day – it is known to the Lord – with neither day nor night. Even at evening time there will be light.
8 Li va rive nan jou sa a, kouran dlo yo va koule sòti Jérusalem; mwatye nan yo vè pati lès lanmè a, e lòt mwatye a vè pati lwès lanmè a. Li va konsa ni nan sezon ete ni nan sezon ivè.
And on that day living waters will flow from Jerusalem, half of them to the eastern sea and half of them to the western sea; in both summer and winter.
9 Epi SENYÈ a va wa sou tout tè a. Nan jou sa a, SENYÈ a va yon sèl, e non Li va yon sèl.
The Lord will be king over all the earth. On that day the Lord will be one, and his name one.
10 Tout peyi a va devni yon savann, depi Guéba jis rive Rimmon, nan sid Jérusalem. Men Jérusalem va vin leve, e rete nan plas li soti nan Pòtay Benjamin an, jis rive nan pozisyon premye Pòtay la, pou janbe nan Pòtal Kwen an, e soti nan tou Hananéel la, jis rive nan pèz diven a wa a.
The land will be changed to plain, from Geba to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, but Jerusalem will be high and inhabited as it stands, from the Benjamin Gate up to the place of the first gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate, and as far as the king’s winepresses.
11 Moun yo va viv ladann, e p ap gen malediksyon ankò, paske Jérusalem va rete ansekirite.
Jerusalem will be inhabited, for never again will it be doomed to destruction, and its people will abide in security.
12 Men sa va fleyo avèk sila SENYÈ a va frape tout pèp ki te fè lagè kont Jérusalem yo: chè yo va pouri pandan yo kanpe sou pye yo, zye yo va pouri nan tèt yo, e lang yo va pouri nan pwòp bouch yo.
This is the plague with which the Lord will strike all the peoples who array themselves against Jerusalem: he will make their flesh rot while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouth.
13 Li va vin rive nan jou sa a ke yon gwo panik ki sòti nan SENYÈ a va tonbe sou yo. Konsa, chak va kenbe men vwazen l, e men a youn va vin leve kont men a lòt la.
On that day a great panic sent by the Lord will fall on them. Everyone will seize their neighbours and attack them.
14 Anplis, Juda va goumen nan Jérusalem. Richès a tout nasyon ki ozanviwon yo va vin rasanble ansanm; lò, ajan ak vètman an gran kantite.
Even Judah will fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of the surrounding nations will be gathered up – gold and silver and piles of clothing.
15 Jan fleyo sa a ye a, se konsa tou fleyo a va ye sou cheval, milèt, chamo, bourik ak tout bèf ki va nan kan sa yo.
Plague will fall upon the horses, mules, camels, and asses, and on all the animals in all those camps.
16 Epi li va vin rive ke tout moun ki rete nan tout nasyon ki te ale kont Jérusalem yo, yo tout va ale monte ane pa ane pou adore Wa a, SENYÈ Dèzame yo, e pou selebre Fèt Tonèl yo.
All who are left of all the nations which fought against Jerusalem will come up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the pilgrim-feast of tabernacles.
17 Epi sa va rive ke nenpòt moun nan fanmi sou latè yo ki pa monte Jérusalem pou adore Wa a, SENYÈ Dèzame yo, Lapli p ap tonbe sou yo.
Whoever of all the peoples of the earth will not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there will be no rain.
18 Si fanmi peyi Egypte la pa monte oswa pa vini; alò, lapli p ap tonbe sou yo. Va gen fleyo ke SENYÈ a te frape nasyon ki pa t monte pou selebre Fèt Tonèl Yo.
If the family of Egypt does not go up nor enter in, on them also will come the plague with which the Lord will strike the nations.
19 Sa va pinisyon Egypte la ak pinisyon a tout nasyon ki pa monte pou selebre Fèt Tonèl yo.
This will be the punishment for the sin of Egypt and the punishment for the sin of all nations which do not come up to keep the feast of the tabernacles.
20 Nan jou sa a, va gen anons sa sou klòch cheval yo: “SEN A SENYÈ A”. Epi chodyè ki kwit manje lakay SENYÈ yo, va tankou bòl devan lotèl yo.
On that day there will be inscribed upon the bells of the horses, “Holy to the Lord” and the pots in the house of the Lord will be as holy as the sacrificial bowls before the altars.
21 Tout chodyè pou kwit manje Jérusalem ak Juda yo, va vin sen pou SENYÈ Dèzame yo; epi tout moun ki fè sakrifis yo va vin pran yo, e bouyi sakrifis ladan yo. Epi p ap gen ankò, yon Kananeyen nan kay SENYÈ Dèzame yo nan jou sa a.
Every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of hosts and all who sacrifice will come and take of them and cook the sacrifices in them. There will be no more traffickers in the house of the Lord of hosts in that day.
