Isaiah 57
1 The righteous perisheth, and no man considereth it in heart: and mercifull men are taken away, and no man vnderstandeth that the righteous is taken away from the euill to come.
Moun k'ap mache dwat yo ap fin mouri nan peyi a, sa pa fè pesonn anyen. Moun k'ap sèvi Bondye ak tout kè yo ap fin disparèt, pesonn pa wè sa. Mechanste fè moun k'ap mache dwat yo disparèt.
2 Peace shall come: they shall rest in their beds, euery one that walketh before him.
Moun ki t'ap mache dwat yo ale kote yo jwenn kè poze, yo kouche nan tonm yo.
3 But you witches children, come hither, the seede of the adulterer and of the whore.
Nou menm ki p'ap fè anyen san konsilte zetwal, pwoche vini! Se yon bann moun ki vire do bay Bondye nou ye. N'ap sèvi zidòl, nou tankou moun k'ap fè adiltè, k'ap viv nan dezòd.
4 On whome haue ye iested? vpon whome haue ye gaped and thrust out your tongue? are not ye rebellious children, and a false seede?
Ki moun n'ap pase nan betiz la a? Ki moun n'ap pale mal konsa? Sou ki moun n'ap fè grimas konsa? Se yon bann moun ki pa janm kenbe pawòl yo, yon bann moun k'ap bay manti nou ye.
5 Inflamed with idoles vnder euery greene tree? and sacrificing the children in the valleys vnder the tops of the rocks?
N'ap fè sèvis pou zidòl nan jaden nou. Nou kouche ak fanm anba pye bwadchenn, anba tout raje. Nou bay timoun nou pou yo touye pou zidòl yo nan twou wòch nan bafon yo.
6 Thy portion is in the smooth stones of the riuer: they, they are thy lot: euen to them hast thou powred a drinke offering: thou hast offered a sacrifice. Should I delite in these?
Nou pran kèk gwo wòch galèt nan ravin yo sèvi nou Bondye. Se yo ki tout nou. Nou fè ofrann grenn jaden ak ofrann diven pou yo vide sou yo. Nou konprann bagay konsa ka fè m' plezi!
7 Thou hast made thy bed vpon a very hie mountaine: thou wentest vp thither, euen thither wentest thou to offer sacrifice.
Nou moute sou yon gwo mòn byen wo pou n' al kouche ak fanm, pou n' al touye bèt nou ofri bay zidòl yo.
8 Behinde the doores also and postes hast thou set vp thy remembrance: for thou hast discouered thy selfe to another then me, and wentest vp, and diddest enlarge thy bed, and make a couenant betweene thee and them, and louedst their bed in euery place where thou sawest it.
Nou mete wòch zidòl nou yo dèyè pòtay nou, nan papòt lakay nou. Nou vire do ban mwen, nou mete nou toutouni, nou moute sou gwo kabann byen laj nou, nou kouche ak medam, chwal zidòl yo, nou peye pou sa. Nou pran kont plezi nou ak je nou kole sou wòch zidòl yo.
9 Thou wentest to the Kings with oyle, and diddest increase thine oyntments and sende thy messengers farre off, and diddest humble thy selfe vnto hell. (Sheol h7585)
Nou mete odè sou nou, nou pati al fè sèvis pou Molòk. Nou mete tout kalite odè sou nou. Nou voye mesaje byen lwen al chache zidòl pou nou. Nou voye yo jouk nan peyi kote mò yo ye a. (Sheol h7585)
10 Thou weariedst thy selfe in thy manifolde iourneys, yet saydest thou not, There is no hope: thou hast found life by thine hand, therefore thou wast not grieued.
Nou fatige kò nou ap vwayaje, men nou pa janm kite! Nou mete nan tèt nou zidòl yo ap ban nou fòs pou nou pa janm bouke.
11 And whome diddest thou reuerence or feare, seeing thou hast lyed vnto me, and hast not remembred me, neither set thy minde thereon? is it not because I holde my peace, and that of long time? therefore thou fearest not me.
Seyè a di: Kilès bondye sa yo ki t'ap ban nou kè sote, ki t'ap fè nou pè konsa, kifè ou bay tout manti sa yo? Kilès sa a ki fè nou bliye m' konsa? Nou pa chonje reve m'. Eske se paske mwen rete mwen pa di anyen kifè nou sispann gen krentif pou mwen?
12 I will declare thy righteousnes and thy workes, and they shall not profite thee.
M'ap denonse tou sa n'ap plede fè pou sove tèt nou. Nou kwè l'ap bon pou nou, men sa p'ap sèvi nou anyen.
13 When thou cryest, let them that thou hast gathered together deliuer thee: but the winde shall take them all away: vanitie shall pull them away: but he that trusteth in me, shall inherite the lande, and shall possesse mine holy Mountaine.
Lè n'a rele mande sekou, se pou tout zidòl nou yo vin sove nou si yo kapab! Yon senp ti van ap pote yo ale, yon ti briz van ap pati ak yo. Men, moun ki mete konfyans yo nan mwen va rete nan peyi a, y'a rete sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an.
14 And he shall say, Cast vp, cast vp: prepare the way: take vp the stumbling blocks out of the way of my people.
Lè sa a, Seyè a di: -Pare wout la pou pèp la tounen vin jwenn mwen. Mete ranblè. Wete tout bagay k'ap bare wout la devan pèp mwen an.
15 For thus sayth he that is hie and excellent, he that inhabiteth the eternitie, whose Name is the Holy one, I dwell in the high and holy place: with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirite to reuiue the spirite of the humble, and to giue life to them that are of a contrite heart.
Se mwen menm Bondye ki anwo nèt nan syèl la, Bondye ki la pou tout tan an, Bondye ki apa nèt la. Men sa mwen di: mwen rete yon kote ki anwo nèt, yon kote ki apa pou mwen nèt. Men mwen kanpe la avèk moun ki soumèt yo devan m', avèk moun ki gen lapenn tout bon pou sa yo fè ki mal, pou m' ka remoute kouraj yo, pou m' ba yo konfyans ankò.
16 For I will not contende for euer, neither will I be alwayes wroth, for the spirite should fayle before me: and I haue made the breath.
Mwen pa vle nan diskit tout tan ak yo, mwen pa vle rete ankòlè tout tan pou moun mwen bay lavi yo pa pèdi kouraj.
17 For his wicked couetousnesse I am angry with him, and haue smitten him: I hid mee and was angry, yet he went away, and turned after the way of his owne heart.
Wi, mwen te fache anpil sou yo paske yo te gen move lanvi nan kè yo. Mwen te fè kòlè, mwen te pini yo, mwen te lage yo, paske yo t'ap fè tèt di, yo t'ap fè sa yo pi pito.
18 I haue seene his wayes, and wil heale him: I wil leade him also, and restore comfort vnto him, and to those that lament him.
Mwen te wè tou sa yo t'ap fè, men m'ap geri yo. Mwen pral pran men yo pou m' mennen yo sou bon chemen an. M'a remoute kouraj sa ki nan lapenn yo.
19 I create the fruite of the lips, to be peace: peace vnto them that are farre off, and to them that are neere, sayth the Lord: for I will heale him.
M'a di yo: Kè poze pou nou tout ki lwen, kè poze pou nou tout ki pre. M'a mete lwanj nan bouch yo, m'ap ba yo tout kè poze, m'ap geri yo.
20 But the wicked are like the raging sea, that can not rest, whose waters cast vp myre and dirt.
Men, mechan yo tankou lanmè ki boulvèse. Lanm lanmè yo ap bat san rete, y'ap jete kras ak labou sou rivaj la.
21 There is no peace, sayth my God, to the wicked.
Bondye mwen an di: Pa gen kè poze pou mechan yo.
