Zakari 5
1 Answit, mwen te leve zye m ankò. Mwen te gade e mwen te wè, yon liv woulo ki t ap vole anlè.
I looked again and saw a flying scroll.
2 Konsa, li te di mwen: “Kisa ou wè la a?” Mwen te reponn: “Mwen wè yon liv woulo k ap vole anlè; longè li se ven koude, e lajè li se dis koude.”
“What do you see?” asked the angel. “I see a flying scroll,” I replied. “It's thirty feet long and fifteen feet wide.”
3 Li te di mwen: “Sa se malediksyon k ap vin parèt sou fas a tout tè a. Anverite, tout moun ki vòlè va vin koupe retire nan yon bò selon li; epi tout moun ki fè fo sèman va vin koupe retire nan lòt bò a selon li.
He told me, “This is the curse that is going out to all the world. Anyone who steals will be purged from society, according to one side of the scroll. Anyone who swears lies under oath will be purged from society, according to the other side of the scroll.”
4 Mwen va fè li vin parèt”, deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo: “Epi li va antre lakay a vòlè a ak lakay a sila ki fè fo sèman nan non Mwen an. Konsa, li va rete nèt nan mitan kay li a, e li va detwi l nèt ansanm ak bwa travès ak tout wòch yo.”
“I have sent the curse out and it will go into the house of the thief and into the house of the one who swears lies in my name, declares the Lord Almighty. The curse will remain in that house, and will destroy it, both the timbers and the stones.”
5 Epi zanj ki t ap pale avè m nan te sòti deyò. Li te di mwen: “Koulye a leve zye ou pou wè sa k ap vin parèt la.”
Then the angel I had been talking to came over to me and said, “Look. What do you see moving away?”
6 Mwen te di: “Kisa li ye?” Li te di: “Sa se panyen efa a k ap vin parèt la.” Li te di ankò: “Sa se inikite ki nan tout peyi a.
“What is it?” I asked. “What you see moving away is a barrel full of the sins of everyone in the country,” he replied.
7 Epi vwala, yon kouvèti an plon ki peze yon talan (40 kilo) te vin leve. Epi te gen yon fanm ki chita nan mitan panyen an”.
Then the lead lid was lifted from the barrel and there was a woman sitting inside.
8 Zanj la te di: “Sa se Mechanste!” Epi li te jete fanm nan rive nan mitan panyen efa a, e li te voye mas plon an sou bouch panyen an.
“She represents wickedness,” he said, and pushed her back inside, forcing the lead lid shut.
9 Mwen te leve zye m, mwen te gade, e mwen te wè te gen de fanm ak van nan zèl yo. Zèl yo te tankou zèl a sigòy. Konsa, yo te leve panyen efa a antre tè a ak syèl la.
I looked once more and saw two women flying towards me. Their wings looked like those of a stork. They picked up the barrel and flew away, high into the sky.
10 Mwen te di a zanj ki t ap pale avè m nan: “Se ki kote yo prale ak panyen an la a?”
“Where are they taking it?” I asked the angel I was talking to.
11 Li te di mwen: “Pou bati yon tanp pou fanm nan, nan peyi Schinear. Konsa, lè l fin prepare, fi la va pozisyone la sou pwòp baz pa l.”
“They're taking it to the land of Babylon to build a house for it. When the house is ready, the barrel will be placed at its base.”
