< Isaiah 65 >

1 I have bene sought of them that asked not: I was found of them that sought me not: I sayd, Beholde me, beholde me, vnto a nation that called not vpon my Name.
“Mwen te chache pa sila ki pa t mande pou Mwen yo; Mwen te twouve pa sila ki pa t chache M. Mwen te di: “Men Mwen isit la! Men Mwen isit la!’ a yon nasyon ki pa t rele non Mwen.
2 I haue spred out mine handes all the day vnto a rebellious people, which walked in a way that was not good, euen after their owne imaginations:
Mwen te louvri men M tout lajounen a yon pèp rebèl, ki mache nan chemen ki pa bon, k ap swiv pwòp panse pa yo,
3 A people that prouoked me euer vnto my face: that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense vpon brickes.
Yon pèp ki pwovoke M tout tan nan figi M, k ap ofri sakrifis nan jaden yo e k ap brile lansan sou brik yo;
4 Which remaine among the graues, and lodge in the desarts, which eate swines flesh, and the broth of things polluted are in their vessels.
ki chita nan mitan tonm yo e ki pase nwit lan kote kache yo; ki manje chè kochon, ak soup fèt ak sa ki pa pwòp.
5 Which say, Stand apart, come not neere to me: for I am holier then thou: these are a smoke in my wrath and a fire that burneth all the day.
Ki di: ‘Rete la, ou menm, pa pwoche mwen; mwen pi sen pase ou’! Sila yo se lafimen nan nen Mwen, yon dife ki brile tout lajounen.
6 Beholde, it is written before me: I wil not keepe silence, but will render it and recompense it into their bosome.
“Gade byen, li ekri devan Mwen: Mwen p ap rete an silans, men Mwen va bay rekonpans; Mwen va rekonpanse jis rive nan lestonmak yo,
7 Your iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers shalbe together (sayth the Lord) which haue burnt incense vpon the mountaines, and blasphemed me vpon the hilles: therefore wil I measure their olde worke into their bosome.
ni pou pwòp inikite pa yo ak inikite a zansèt yo ansanm”, pale SENYÈ a. “Akoz yo te brile lansan sou mòn yo e te moke M sou kolin yo; pou sa, Mwen va mezire zèv yo te fè, jis rive nan lestonmak yo.”
8 Thus sayth the Lord, As the wine is found in the cluster, and one sayth, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it, so will I doe for my seruants sakes, that I may not destroy them whole.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a; “Menm jan divin tounèf twouve nan yon grap rezen, e yon moun di, ‘pa detwi l, paske gen benefis ladann’: konsa Mwen va aji pou sèvitè ki pou Mwen yo, pou M pa detwi yo tout.
9 But I will bring a seede out of Iaakob, and out of Iudah, that shall inherit my mountaine: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my seruants shall dwell there.
Mwen va mennen fè sòti zanfan Jacob yo e yon eritye mòn Mwen yo kap soti nan Juda. Menm chwazi pa M yo va eritye l e sèvitè Mwen yo va demere la.
10 And Sharon shalbe a sheepefolde, and the valley of Achor shalbe a resting place for the cattell of my people, that haue sought me.
Saron va yon peyi ki fè patiraj pou bann mouton yo, e vale Acor yon kote pou twoupo yo ka repoze, pou pèp Mwen ki chache Mwen an.
11 But ye are they that haue forsaken the Lord and forgotten mine holy Mountaine, and haue prepared a table for the multitude, and furnish the drinke offerings vnto the number.
“Men nou menm ki abandone SENYÈ a, ki bliye mòn sen Mwen an, ki ranje yon tab pou Gran Chans, ki plen tas ak diven mele pou Desten an;
12 Therefore wil I number you to the sword, and all you shall bowe downe to the slaughter, because I called, and ye did not answere: I spake, and ye heard not, but did euil in my sight, and did chuse that thing which I would not.
Mwen va ranje desten nou ak nepe, e nou tout va bese devan masak la. Akoz Mwen te rele nou, men nou pa t reponn; Mwen te pale, men nou pa t tande. Epi nou te fè mal devan zye M, e te chwazi sa ki pa t fè m plezi.”
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, my seruants shall eate, and ye shalbe hungrie: beholde, my seruants shall drinke, and ye shall be thirstie: beholde, my seruants shall reioyce, and ye shalbe ashamed.
Pou sa, konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen yo va manje, men nou va rete grangou. Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen yo va bwè, men nou va rete swaf. Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen yo va rejwi, men nou va twouve gwo wont.
14 Beholde, my seruants shall sing for ioye of heart, and ye shall crye for sorow of heart, and shall howle for vexation of minde.
Gade byen, sèvitè Mwen yo va rele ak jwa ak kè kontan, men nou va kriye fò ak yon kè plen doulè, e nou va rele anmwey ak yon lespri ki kraze nèt.
15 And ye shall leaue your name as a curse vnto my chosen: for the Lord God shall slay you and call his seruants by another name.
Ou va kite non nou kon yon malediksyon a moun chwazi pa Mwen yo, e Senyè BONDYE a va touye nou. Li va rele sèvitè Li yo pa yon lòt non.
16 He that shall blesse in the earth, shall blesse himselfe in the true God, and he that sweareth in the earth, shall sweare by the true God: for the former troubles are forgotten, and shall surely hide themselues from mine eyes.
Paske sila ki beni sou tè a, va beni pa Bondye verite a; epi sila ki sèmante nan tout tè a, va sèmante pa Bondye verite a; paske ansyen twoub yo fin bliye e paske yo kache devan zye M.”
17 For lo, I will create newe heauens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembred nor come into minde.
Paske gade byen, Mwen va kreye yon syèl tounèf, ak yon tè tounèf; epi ansyen bagay yo p ap sonje ankò, ni p ap menm antre nan panse.
18 But be you glad and reioyce for euer in the things that I shall create: for beholde, I will create Ierusalem, as a reioycing and her people as a ioye,
Men fè kè kontan e rejwi nou jis pou tout tan nan sa ke M kreye yo; paske gade byen, Mwen kreye Jérusalem pou rejwisans, e pèp li a pou kè kontan.
19 And I wil reioyce in Ierusalem, and ioye in my people, and the voyce of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voyce of crying.
Anplis, Mwen va rejwi de Jérusalem. Mwen va fè kè kontan nan pèp Mwen an. Epi p ap tande ankò nan li vwa kriye ak son moun k ap kriye.
20 There shall be no more there a childe of yeeres, nor an olde man that hath not filled his dayes: for he that shall be an hundreth yeeres old, shall dye as a yong man: but the sinner being an hundreth yeeres olde shall be accursed.
“P ap genyen ladann ankò timoun ki viv sèlman kèk jou, ni granmoun ki pa fin fè tout jou li yo; paske jenn yo va mouri nan laj santan e sila ki pa rive nan laj santan yo va konsidere kon moun modi.
21 And they shall build houses and inhabite them, and they shall plant vineyards, and eate the fruite of them.
Yo va bati kay yo pou yo viv ladann; anplis, yo va plante chan rezen yo e manje fwi yo.
22 They shall not build, and another inhabite: they shall not plant, and another eate: for as the dayes of the tree are the dayes of my people, and mine elect shall inioye in olde age the worke of their handes.
Yo p ap bati kay pou yon lòt moun rete ladann, yo p ap plante pou yon lòt moun vin manje. Paske kon lavi a yon pyebwa, se konsa jou a pèp Mwen an va ye, e moun chwazi pa M yo va gen tan rejwi nan pwòp zèv men yo.
23 They shall not labour in vaine, nor bring forth in feare: for they are the seede of the blessed of the Lord, and their buds with them.
Yo p ap travay an ven, ni fè pitit pou mizè; paske yo se desandan a sila ki beni pa SENYÈ a, e anplis, desandan yo, menm jan.
24 Yea, before they call, I will answere, and whiles they speake, I will heare.
Anplis, li va vin rive ke avan yo rele, Mwen va reponn; epi pandan yo toujou ap pale, Mwen va tande.
25 The wolfe and the lambe shall feede together, and the lyon shall eate strawe like the bullocke: and to the serpent dust shall be his meate. They shall no more hurt nor destroy in all mine holy Mountaine, saith the Lord.
Lou ak ti mouton va manje ansanm. Lyon an va manje pay kon bèf. Men pousyè va sèvi kon manje pou sèpan an. Yo p ap fè mal ni donmaj nan tout mòn sen Mwen an,” di SENYÈ a.
