< Isaiah 58 >

1 Crye aloude, spare not: lift vp thy voyce like a trumpet, and shewe my people their transgression, and to the house of Iaakob, their sinnes.
“Kriye fò, ni pa rete! Leve vwa ou tankou yon twonpèt! Deklare a pèp Mwen transgresyon yo, e a lakay Jacob la, peche yo.
2 Yet they seeke me dayly, and will knowe my wayes, euen as a nation that did righteously, and had not forsaken the statutes of their God: they aske of me the ordinances of iustice: they wil drawe neere vnto God, saying,
Malgre yo chache Mwen de jou an jou e te fè gwo lanvi pou konnen chemen Mwen yo, konsi se yon nasyon ki fè ladwati, e ki pa t abandone règleman a Bondye yo. Yo mande Mwen pou fè desizyon ki jis. Yo pran plezi nan pwoksimite Bondye a.
3 Wherefore haue we fasted, and thou seest it not? we haue punished our selues, and thou regardest it not. Beholde, in the day of your fast you will seeke your will, and require all your dettes.
‘Poukisa nou fè jèn e Ou pa wè? Èske nou imilye nou e Ou pa wè?’ “Gade byen, nan jou jèn lan, ou satisfè tout dezi nou yo e nou kòmande byen di tout ouvriye nou yo.
4 Beholde, ye fast to strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickednesse: ye shall not fast as ye doe to day, to make your voyce to be heard aboue.
Gade byen, nou fè jèn pou konfli ak kont; pou nou frape ak ponyèt mechan an. Kalite jèn nou fè la jodi a pa p fè vwa ou tande anwo a.
5 Is it such a fast that I haue chosen, that a man should afflict his soule for a day, and to bowe downe his head, as a bull rush, and to lie downe in sackecloth and ashes? wilt thou call this a fasting, or an acceptable day to the Lord?
Èske se jèn sa a ki fè kè M kontan? Yon jou pou yon nonm ta imilye li menm? Pou bese tèt li kon wozo, e gaye twal sak ak sann kon kabann anba l? Èske se yon jèn ke ou rele sa; menm yon jou k ap akseptab a SENYÈ a?
6 Is not this the fasting, that I haue chosen, to loose the bandes of wickednes, to take off the heauie burdens, and to let the oppressed goe free, and that ye breake euery yoke?
“Se pa jèn sila a ke M pito; pou lache lyann mechanste yo, pou demare kòd jouk la, pou lese oprime yo pran libète e kase tout jouk yo?
7 Is it not to deale thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poore that wander, vnto thine house? when thou seest the naked, that thou couer him, and hide not thy selfe from thine owne flesh?
Èske se pa pou divize pen ou ak moun grangou yo, e mennen endijan yo antre nan kay? Lè ou wè toutouni an, pou kouvri l; epi pou ou pa kache tèt ou de pwòp chè ou?
8 Then shall thy light breake foorth as the morning, and thine health shall grow speedily: thy righteousnes shall goe before thee, and the glorie of the Lord shall embrace thee.
Konsa, limyè ou va pete kon granmmaten, e gerizon ou va vòltije vit devan ou. Ladwati ou va ale devan ou, e laglwa SENYÈ a va fè gad ou an aryè.
9 Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answere: thou shalt cry and hee shall say, Here I am: if thou take away from the mids of thee the yoke, the putting foorth of the finger, and wicked speaking:
Nan lè sa a, ou va rele, e SENYÈ a va reponn. Ou va kriye e Li va di: ‘Men Mwen isit la’. “Si ou retire jouk la nan mitan nou, sispann pwente dwat sou lòt e sispann pale mechanste;
10 If thou powre out thy soule to the hungrie, and refresh the troubled soule: then shall thy light spring out in the darkenes, and thy darkenes shalbe as the noone day.
si ou vide nanm ou a sila ki grangou, e satisfè dezi a aflije a; nan lè sa a, limyè ou va leve nan fènwa, e tristès ou va klere kon gran lajounen.
11 And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfie thy soule in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watred garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters faile not.
Epi SENYÈ a va gide ou tout tan, satisfè dezi ou yo kote ki sèch yo, e bay fòs a zo ou yo. Konsa, ou va kon yon jaden byen awoze e tankou yon sous dlo ki p ap janm seche.
12 And they shalbe of thee, that shall builde the olde waste places: thou shalt rayse vp the foundations for many generations, and thou shalt be called the repairer of the breach and the restorer of the pathes to dwell in.
Sila ki pami ou yo va rebati ansyen mazi yo. Ou va fè releve ansyen fondasyon yo. Konsa yo va rele ou Sila Ki Te Repare Brèch la, Sila Ki Te Restore Lari Yo Ak Kay Yo.
13 If thou turne away thy foote from the Sabbath, from doing thy will on mine holy day, and call the Sabbath a delite, to consecrate it, as glorious to the Lord, and shalt honour him, not doing thine owne wayes, nor seeking thine owne will, nor speaking a vaine word,
“Si, nan Saba a, ou vire pye ou, pou sispann fè pwòp plezi pa ou nan jou sen Mwen an, e rele Saba a yon gwo plezi, epi jou sen a SENYÈ onorab, e bay li onè, olye chache chemen pa ou, olye pwòp plezi pa ou, ak pale pwòp pawòl pa w,
14 Then shalt thou delite in the Lord, and I wil cause thee to mount vpon the hie places of the earth, and feede thee with the heritage of Iaakob thy father: for the mouth of ye Lord hath spoken it.
konsa ou va pran plezi nan SENYÈ a, e Mwen va fè ou monte sou wotè latè yo. Mwen va bay ou manje, e Mwen va ba ou eritaj a Jacob, papa ou a, paske bouch SENYÈ a pale sa a.”
