Revelation 21
1 I saw the new heaven and the new earth. For the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and the sea is no more.
Apre sa, mwen wè yon lòt sièl ak yon lòt latè. Premie sièl la ak premie latè a te disparèt. pa t' gen okenn lanmè ankò.
2 And I, John, saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
Apre sa, mwen wè lavil Bondye a, lòt Jerizalèm nèf lan, ki t'ap desann soti bò kot Bondye ye nan sièl la. Li te byen abiye, li te pare tankou yon lamarye ki pral kontre fiyanse li.
3 And I heard a great voice from the throne, saying: “Behold the tabernacle of God with men. And he will dwell with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be their God with them.
Mwen tande yon vwa ki t'ap soti bò fòtèy la, li t'ap di byen fò: Koulye a, kay Bondye a se nan mitan moun l'ap ye. L'ap rete nan mitan yo, lèzòm ap yon pèp pou li. Se Bondye menm k'ap viv avèk yo, li va Bondye pou yo.
4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. And death shall be no more. And neither mourning, nor crying out, nor grief shall be anymore. For the first things have passed away.”
Li gen pou l' cheche tout dlo nan je yo. p'ap gen lanmò ankò, yo p'ap nan lapenn ankò, yo p'ap janm plenyen ankò, yo p'ap janm soufri ankò. Tout vie bagay sa yo pral disparèt.
5 And the One who was sitting upon the throne, said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And he said to me, “Write, for these words are entirely faithful and true.”
Lè sa a, moun ki te chita sou fòtèy la di: Koulye a, mwen fè tout bagay vin nèf. Apre sa li di mwen: Ou mèt ekri sa, paske pawòl mwen se pawòl ki vre, pawòl tout moun dwe kwè.
6 And he said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To those who thirst, I will give freely from the fountain of the water of life.
Apre sa li di ankò: Bon. Tout bagay fin fèt. Mwen se A ak Z, mwen se konmansman, mwen se finisman. Si yon moun swaf dlo, m'a ba li bwè dlo gratis nan sous dlo ki bay lavi a.
7 Whoever prevails shall possess these things. And I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
Se sa moun ki va genyen batay la va resevwa nan men m'. M'a va Bondye yo, y'a va pitit mwen.
9 And one of the seven Angels, those holding the bowls filled with the seven last afflictions, approached and spoke with me, saying: “Come, and I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
Yonn nan sèt zanj ki te kenbe sèt gode plen ak sèt dènye kalamite yo vin di mwen: Vini non. Mwen pral moutre ou lamarye a, fiyanse ti Mouton an.
10 And he took me up in spirit to a great and high mountain. And he showed me the Holy City Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
Nan vizyon an, mwen wè zanj lan mennen m' sou tèt yon mòn byen wo. Li moutre m' lavil Bondye a, Jerizalèm ki desann soti bò kote Bondye ye nan sièl la.
11 having the glory of God. And its light was like that of a precious stone, even like that of the jasper stone or like crystal.
Li te klere byen bèl ak limiè prezans Bondye a. Lavil la te klere tankou yon piè bijou ki koute chè anpil, tankou yon piè jasp klè kou kristal.
12 And it had a wall, great and high, having twelve gates. And at the gates were twelve Angels. And names were written upon them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel.
Li te gen yon gwo miray byen wo avèk douz pòtay. Te gen yon zanj nan chak pòtay pou veye yo. Sou pòtay yo, yo te ekri non douz branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la.
13 On the East were three gates, and on the North were three gates, and on the South were three gates, and on the West were three gates.
Te gen twa pòtay sou chak kote: twa pòtay sou bò lès, twa pòtay sou bò nò, twa pòtay sou bò sid, twa pòtay sou bò lwès.
14 And the wall of the City had twelve foundations. And upon them were the twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.
Miray la te kanpe sou douz gwo wòch. Yo te ekri non douz apòt ti Mouton an sou wòch yo.
15 And he who was speaking with me was holding a golden measuring reed, in order to measure the City, and its gates and wall.
Zanj ki t'ap pale avè m' lan te gen yon baton pou mezire nan men li, yon baton wozo fèt an lò, pou l' te pran mezi lavil la, mezi pòtay yo ak mezi miray la.
16 And the city is laid out as a square, and so its length is as great as the width. And he measured the city with the golden reed for twelve thousand stadia, and its length and height and breadth were equal.
Lavil la te tankou yon bwat kare, longè l' te menm ak lajè li. Zanj lan mezire lavil la ak baton wozo l' la. Lavil la gen demildesan (2.200) kilomèt longè. Lajè l' ak wotè l' te menm ak longè li.
17 And he measured its wall as one hundred and forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, which is of an Angel.
Zanj lan mezire miray la: miray la te gen swasanndouz (72) mèt sou wotè, dapre mezi òdenè li t'ap sèvi a.
18 And the structure of its wall was of jasper stone. Yet truly, the city itself was of pure gold, similar to pure glass.
Miray la te bati an jasp. Lavil la menm te an bon lò, li te klere kou kristal.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was of jasper, the second was of sapphire, the third was of chalcedony, the fourth was of emerald,
Gwo wòch fondasyon miray lavil la te byen òne ak tout kalite piè bijou gwo pri. Premie wòch la te an jasp, dezyèm lan an safi, twazièm lan an agat, katriyèm lan an emwòd,
20 the fifth was of sardonyx, the sixth was of sardius, the seventh was of chrysolite, the eighth was of beryl, the ninth was of topaz, the tenth was of chrysoprasus, the eleventh was of jacinth, the twelfth was of amethyst.
senkièm lan an oniks, sizièm lan an sadwan, setièm lan an krizolit, witièm lan an beril, nevièm lan an topaz, dizyèm lan an krizopraz, onzièm lan an tikwaz, douzyèm lan an ametis.
21 And the twelve gates are twelve pearls, one for each, so that each gate was made from a single pearl. And the main street of the city was of pure gold, similar to transparent glass.
Douz pòtay yo te douz bèl grenn pèl. Chak pòtay yo te fèt ak yon sèl grenn pèl. Tout lari nan lavil la te fèt an bon lò, klè kou kristal.
22 And I saw no temple in it. For the Lord God Almighty is its temple, and the Lamb.
Mwen pa t' wè tanp nan lavil la, paske Mèt la, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, te tanp li ansanm ak ti Mouton an.
23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine in it. For the glory of God has illuminated it, and the Lamb is its lamp.
Lavil la pa t' bezwen ni solèy, ni lalin pou klere l' paske limiè prezans Bondye a te klere l' nèt, ti Mouton an te tankou yon lanp pou li.
24 And the nations shall walk by its light. And the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honor into it.
Gremesi limiè l' la, tout nasyon ki sou latè va wè pou yo mache. Tout wa latè yo va pote richès yo ba li.
25 And its gates shall not be closed throughout the day, for there shall be no night in that place.
Pòtay yo va rete louvri tout lajounen. Men, paske la p'ap janm fè nwit, pòtay yo p'ap janm fèmen.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
Tout richès nasyon yo ansanm ak tout bèl bagay yo genyen va anpile nan lavil la.
27 There shall not enter into it anything defiled, nor anything causing an abomination, nor anything false, but only those who have been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb.
Men, anyen ki pa bon pou sèvis Bondye p'ap antre nan lavil la. Ni yo p'ap kite moun k'ap fè bagay ki bay degoutans, moun k'ap bay manti, mete pie yo nan lavil la. Moun ki va antre nan lavil la, se sèlman moun ki gen non yo ekri nan liv ki nan men ti Mouton an, liv ki gen non moun ki gen lavi a.
