Revelasyon 4
1 Apre sa, mwen fè yon lòt vizyon, mwen wè yon pòt louvri nan sièl la. Vwa ki t'ap sonnen nan zòrèy mwen tankou yon klewon an, menm vwa ki t'ap pale avè m' anvan an, di m' konsa: Moute bò isit, m'a fè ou wè sa ki gen pou rive apre sa.
After this, in my vision, I saw an open door in the heavens, and the first voice that I heard was like the blast of a trumpet speaking to me. It said – “Come up here and I will show you what must take place.”
2 Lamenm, Lespri Bondye a fè m' fè yon vizyon, mwen wè yon fòtèy nan sièl la ak yon moun chita sou li.
Immediately after this I fell into a trance. There stood a throne in heaven, and on the throne was One seated.
3 Figi moun lan te klere tankou piè bijou yo rele jasp la ak sa yo rele sadwan lan. Fòtèy la menm te nan mitan yon gwo lakansièl ki te klere tankou yon piè emwòd.
He who was seated on it was in appearance like a jasper and a sardius; and round the throne there was a rainbow of the colour of an emerald.
4 Tout arebò fòtèy la te gen vennkat lòt fòtèy ak vennkat granmoun chita sou yo. Granmoun yo te gen rad tout blan sou yo, ak yon kouwòn an lò sou tèt yo chak.
And round the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and on these I saw twenty-four elders sitting clothed in white robes; and on their heads they had crowns of gold.
5 Kout zèklè t'ap pati soti nan fòtèy la ansanm ak mizik ak kout loraj. Te gen sèt flanbo limen ki t'ap boule devan fòtèy la; se sèt Lespri Bondye yo.
Out from the throne come flashes of lightning, cries, and peals of thunder! There are seven torches burning in front of the throne, which are the seven spirits of God;
6 Devan fòtèy la tou te gen yon bagay ki te sanble yon lanmè an glas ki klere kou kristal. Toupre fòtèy la, te gen kat bèt vivan kanpe yonn nan chak direksyon. Yo te gen anpil je devan kou dèyè.
and in front of the throne is what seemed to be a sea of glass, resembling crystal, while within the space before the throne and round the throne are four creatures full of eyes in front and behind.
7 Premie a te sanble ak yon lyon. Dezyèm lan te sanble ak yon jenn ti towo bèf. Twazièm lan te gen yon figi ki te sanble ak figi moun. Katriyèm lan te sanble ak yon gwo malfini k'ap vole.
The first creature is like a lion, the second creature like a calf, the third creature has a face like a man’s, and the fourth creature is like an eagle on the wing.
8 Yo chak yo te gen sis zèl. Tout kò yo se te je andedan kou deyò. Lajounen kou lannwit y'ap chante san rete: Wi, li sen, li sen, li sen vre, Bondye sèl Mèt ki gen tout pouvwa a, Li menm ki te la, ki la koulye a, ki gen pou vini an.
These four creatures have each of them six wings, and all round, and within, they are full of eyes; and day and night they never cease to say – “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord, our God, the Almighty, who was, and who is, and who will be.”
9 Kat bèt vivan yo t'ap chante pou fè lwanj moun ki chita sou fòtèy la, pou rann li onè, pou di l' mèsi, li menm ki vivan pou tout tan an. Chak fwa yo pran chante, (aiōn g165)
And, whenever these creatures give praise and honour and thanks to him who is seated on the throne, to him who lives for ever and ever, (aiōn g165)
10 vennkat granmoun yo tonbe ajenou fas atè devan moun ki chita sou fòtèy la, yo adore moun ki vivan pou tout tan an. Yo jete kouwòn yo devan fòtèy la. Yo di: (aiōn g165)
the twenty-four elders prostrate themselves before him who is seated on the throne, and worship him who lives for ever and ever, and throw down their crowns before the throne, saying – (aiōn g165)
11 O Bondye, Mèt nou, ou merite pou ou resevwa lwanj, respè ak pouvwa. Se ou menm ki fè tout bagay. Si yo la, si yo gen lavi, se paske ou vle l'.
“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive all praise, and honour, and power, for you did create all things, and at your bidding they came into being and were created.”
