< 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.
Then again I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold a flying roll.
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.”
And he said unto me: 'What seest thou?' And I answered: 'I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.'
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.
Then said he unto me: 'This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole land; for every one that stealeth shall be swept away on the one side like it; and every one that sweareth shall be swept away on the other side like it.
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 cause it to go forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by My name; and it shall abide in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.'
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 that spoke with me went forth, and said unto me: 'Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth.'
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.
And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth.' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land —
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”.
and, behold, there was lifted up a round piece of lead — and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the measure.'
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.
And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.
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.
Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there came forth two women, and the wind was in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork; and they lifted up the measure between the earth and the heaven.
10 Mwen te di a zanj ki t ap pale avè m nan: “Se ki kote yo prale ak panyen an la a?”
Then said I to the angel that spoke with me: 'Whither do these bear the measure?'
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.”
And he said unto me: 'To build her a house in the land of Shinar; and when it is prepared, she shall be set there in her own place.
