Esias 66
1 Thus says the Lord, Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: what kind of a house will you build me? and of what kind [is to be] the place of my rest?
Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Syèl la, se fòtèy kote mwen chita a. Tè a, se ti ban pou m' lonje pye m'. Ki kalite kay nou ta ka bati pou mwen? Ki kote nou ta ka ban mwen pou m' poze kò m'?
2 For all these things are mine, says the Lord: and to whom will I have respect, but to the humble and meek, and the [man] that trembles [at] my words?
Se mwen menm ki fè tout bagay sa yo ak men mwen. Se pou mwen yo tout ye! Se Seyè a menm ki di sa. Moun ki fè m' plezi se moun ki pa gen lògèy nan kè yo, se moun ki règrèt sa yo fè ki mal, se moun ki gen krentif pou mwen lè m' pale.
3 But the transgressor that sacrifices a calf to me, is as he that kills a dog; and he that offers fine flour, as [one that offers] swine's blood; he that gives frankincense for a memorial, is as a blasphemer. Yet they have chosen their own ways, and their soul has delighted in their abominations.
Pèp la fè sa yo pito. Yo touye bèf pou mwen jòdi, denmen yo touye moun pou zidòl yo. Yo ofri ti mouton pou yo touye pou mwen jòdi, denmen yo kase kou chen pou zidòl. Yo fè ofrann grenn jaden yo jòdi pou mwen, denmen yo fè ofrann san kochon pou zidòl. Yo boule lansan sou lotèl mwen an pou m' pa janm bliye moun ki fè ofrann lan jòdi, denmen y'ap fè sèvis pou di Satan mèsi. Yo pran plezi nan fè zafè pa yo jan yo vle. Yo kontan fè vye bagay lèd y'ap fè yo.
4 I also will choose their mockeries, and will recompense their sins upon them; because I called them, and they did not listen to me; I spoke, and they heard not: and they did evil before me, and chose the things wherein I delighted not.
Mwen menm tou m'ap pran plezi m' aji ak yo menm jan yo aji a. M'ap fè malè yo pè rive yo a tonbe sou yo, paske mwen rele yo, pesonn pa reponn. Mwen pale yo, yo pa koute m'. Y'ap fè sa ki mal devan je m', yo pito fè sa ki p'ap fè m' plezi.
5 Hear the words of the Lord, you that tremble at his word; speak you, our brethren, to them that hate you and abominate you, that the name of the Lord may be glorified, and may appear their joy; but they shall be ashamed.
Koute sa Seyè a di, nou menm ki gen krentif pou li lè li pale ak nou: Paske nou pa vire do ban mwen, gen moun menm ras ak nou ki pa vle wè nou, ki derefize mele ak nou. Y'ap di konsa: Se pou Seyè a fè wè pouvwa li, paske yo ta renmen wè jan nou kontan. Men se yo menm k'ap soti wont.
6 A voice of a cry from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord rendering recompence to [his] adversaries.
Koute! Gwo bri nou tande k'ap fèt nan lavil la, gwo vwa nou tande k'ap pale nan tanp lan, se bri Seyè a k'ap tire revanj li sou lènmi l' yo.
7 Before she that travailed brought forth, before the travail-pain came on, she escaped [it] and brought forth a male.
Lavil Bondye a tankou yon fanm ki akouche anvan menm li gen tranche. Li gen tan fè yon ti gason anvan menm li santi doulè.
8 Who has heard such a thing? and who has seen after this manner? Has the earth travailed in one day? or has even a nation been born at once, that Sion has travailed, and brought forth her children?
Ki moun ki janm tande koze konsa? Ki moun ki janm wè bagay konsa? Eske yon sèl jou kont pou fè tout yon nasyon? Eske lapoula yo ka fè tout yon nasyon? Mòn Siyon an p'ap soufri anpil anvan nasyon an fèt.
9 But I have raised this expectation, yet you have not remembered me, says the Lord: behold, have not I made the bearing and barren woman? says your God.
Eske mwen ka fè yon fanm kase lèzo, lèfini pou m' pa kite l' akouche? Eske mwen ka fè pitit la rive sou jou l' lèfini pou m' pa kite l' fèt? Se Bondye ou la menm ki di sa!
10 Rejoice, O Jerusalem, and all you that love her hold in her a general assembly: rejoice greatly with her, all that [now] mourn over her:
Fè kè nou kontan ansanm ak lavil Jerizalèm. Fè fèt pou li, nou tout ki renmen l'! Se pou nou kontan ansanm avè l' koulye a, nou menm ki te nan lapenn pou li!
11 that you may suck, and be satisfied with the breast of her consolation; that you may milk out, and delight yourselves with the influx of her glory.
Tankou yon ti bebe k'ap tete manman l' jouk vant li plen, tankou yon ti bebe k'ap kontan souse lèt manman l', nou pral jwenn pa nou nan bèl bagay m'ap fè pou lavil Jerizalèm.
12 For thus says the Lord, Behold, I turn toward them as a river of peace, and as a torrent bringing upon them in a flood the glory of the Gentiles: their children shall be borne upon the shoulders, and comforted on the knees.
Paske, men sa Seyè a di: -Mwen pral ba li kè poze san rete. Richès nasyon yo pral kouvri l' tankou lè inondasyon dlo kouvri latè. Nou pral tankou ti bebe pou li: l'ap ban nou tete, l'a pote nou nan bra li, l'a mete nou sou jenou l' pou li jwe ak nou.
13 As if his mother should comfort one, so will I also comfort you; and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
Menm jan yon manman konsole pitit li, se konsa m'ap konsole nou nan lavil Jerizalèm.
14 And you shall see, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall thrive like grass: and the hand of the Lord shall be known to them that fear him, and he shall threaten the disobedient.
Lè n'a wè sa, kè nou va kontan: sa va ban nou fòs ak kouraj ankò. Lè sa a, n'a konnen mwen menm, Seyè a, m'ap pwoteje sèvitè m' yo, men lènmi m' yo va konnen jan m' konn fache.
15 For, behold, the Lord will come as fire, and his chariots as a storm, to render his vengeance with wrath, and his rebuke with a flame of fire.
Seyè a ap vin nan yon gwo dife. Li moute sou nwaj yon gwo tanpèt pou l' vin pini moun ki te fè l' fache yo, pou l' regle yo jan li te di l'ap regle yo a nan yon gwo boukan dife.
16 For with the fire of the Lord all the earth shall be judged, and all flesh with his sword: many shall be slain by the Lord.
Se avèk dife Seyè a pral jije, avèk nepe l' li pral regle tout moun ki koupab yo. Anpil moun pral mouri anba men l'.
17 They that sanctify themselves and purify themselves in the gardens, and eat swine's flesh in the porches, and the abominations, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, says the Lord.
Seyè a di ankò: -Talè konsa sa pral fini pou moun k'ap fè sèvis pou mete kò yo nan bon kondisyon anvan y'a l' fè pwosesyon pou zidòl nan jaden yo, pou moun k'ap manje vyann kochon, vyann sourit ak lòt kalite manje ki pa bon pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye.
18 And I [know] their works and their imagination. I am going to gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
Mwen konnen sa y'ap fè, mwen konnen sa ki nan lide yo. Mwen menm, m'ap vin sanble pèp tout nasyon yo, pèp ki pale tout kalite lang sou latè. Y'a vini, y'a wè bèl pouvwa mwen.
19 And I will leave a sign upon them, and I will send forth them that have escaped of them to the nations, to Tharsis, and Phud, and Lud, and Mosoch, and to Thobel, and to Greece, and to the isles afar off, to those who have not heard my name, nor seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.
M'a fè yo konnen se mwen menm k'ap pini yo. Men, m'ap sove kèk moun ladan yo, pou m' voye yo nan tout nasyon, nan tout peyi byen lwen ki poko janm tande non m' nan zòrèy yo, ki pa janm wè pouvwa mwen, nan peyi Lespay, nan peyi Libi, nan peyi Lidi, kote ki gen moun ki konn sèvi ak banza ak anpil ladrès, nan peyi Toubal ak nan peyi Lagrès. Yo pral fè moun tout nasyon yo konnen jan mwen gen pouvwa.
20 And they shall bring your brethren out of all nations for a gift to the Lord with horses, and chariots, in litters [drawn by] mules with awnings, to the holy city Jerusalem, said the Lord, as though the children of Israel should bring their sacrifices to me with psalms into the house of the Lord.
Y'a pran tout frè parèy nou yo, y'a mennen yo tounen soti nan peyi sa yo, tankou yon ofrann pou mwen. Y'ap mennen yo tounen sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an, lavil Jerizalèm, sou chwal, sou milèt, sou chamo, nan kabwèt kouvri, nan cha, menm jan moun pèp Izrayèl yo konn pote grenn jaden pou ofri nan tanp lan nan veso yo mete nan bon kondisyon espre pou sa.
21 And I will take of them priests and Levites, says the Lord.
M'a pran kèk moun nan moun sa yo pou fè travay prèt ak travay moun Levi yo. Se Seyè a ki di sa.
22 For as the new heaven and the new earth, which I make, remain before me, says the Lord, so shall your seed and your name continue.
Menm jan lòt syèl ak lòt latè m'ap fè yo ap la pou lontan devan m', konsa tou pitit nou ak non nou ap la pou lontan. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
23 And it shall come to pass from month to month, and from sabbath to sabbath, [that] all flesh shall come to worship before me in Jerusalem, says the Lord.
Pou chak fèt lalin nouvèl, pou chak jou repo, moun tout peyi va vin fè sèvis pou mwen isit lavil Jerizalèm. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
24 And they shall go forth, and see the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched; and they shall be a spectacle to all flesh.
Lè y'ap kite lavil la, y'a wè kadav moun ki te vire do ban mwen yo. Vè k'ap manje yo p'ap janm mouri, dife k'ap boule yo a p'ap janm tenyen. Tout moun sou latè pral gen kè plen lè y'a wè sa!
