Isaiah 56

Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.

Men sa Seyè a di pèp li a: -Se pou nou fè sa ki dwat. Pa fè lenjistis. Paske mwen pa lwen vin delivre nou, mwen pa lwen fè nou konnen jan m'ap pran defans nou.

Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.

benediksyon pou moun ki fè sa m' di yo fè a epi ki toujou kenbe pawòl mwen yo fèm. benediksyon pou moun ki respekte jou repo a, pou moun ki pa mete men l' nan ankenn movezak.

Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

Yon moun lòt nasyon ki va kole kò l' ak pèp Seyè a pa fèt pou di: Seyè a p'ap kite m' fè sèvis pou li ansanm ak pèp li a. Yon moun ki chatre pa dwe janm di: Se yon vye pyebwa chèch mwen ye, mwen pa ka fè pati pèp Bondye a.

For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;

Men sa Seyè a di: Lè yon moun ki chatre mete jou repo a apa pou mwen, lè li chwazi pou l' fè volonte mwen, lè li kenbe kontra mwen an fèm,

Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.

m'ap fè yo chonje l' nan tanp mwen an ak nan mitan pèp mwen an pi lontan pase si li te gen pitit gason ak pitit fi. M'ap fè yo pa janm bliye l'.

Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;

Tout moun lòt nasyon ki va vin kole kò yo ansanm ak pèp Seyè a pou yo sèvi l', pou yo renmen l' tankou yon sèvitè, tout moun ki mete jou repo a apa san yo pa derespekte l' epi ki kenbe kontra m' lan fèm,

Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.

m'ap mennen yo sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an, m'a ba yo kè kontan nan kay kote yo fè lapriyè pou mwen an. M'a asepte tout bèt y'a ofri pou boule sou lotèl mwen ak tout lòt ofrann y'a fè pou mwen. Y'a rele kay mwen an kay kote tout pèp va vin fè lapriyè nan pye m'.

The Lord GOD which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.

Men sa Seyè a, Bondye a, di, li menm ki te fè moun pèp Izrayèl yo te depòte yo sanble nan peyi yo a ankò: Anplis moun pèp mwen an, mwen va sanble yon bann lòt moun ankò ansanm ak yo.

All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest.

Seyè a rele moun lòt nasyon yo pou yo vin devore, pou yo vin manje tankou bèt mawon ki nan savann ak bèt ki nan rakbwa.

His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.

Li di: -Tout chèf ki la pou avèti pèp mwen an, je yo pete. Yo pa konprann anyen. Yo tankou chen ki pa janm jape. Lespri yo byen lwen. Yo kouche tout lajounen, y'ap kabicha.

Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.

Yo tankou chen aloufa, anyen pa janm kont yo. Se yon bann chèf san konprann. Yo tout fè sa yo pito. Se avantaj yo ase y'ap defann.

Come ye, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.

Y'ap plede di: Vini non! N'a jwenn diven. N'a pran kèk bon razad gwòg. Denmen menm, bagay la ap pi bon toujou pase jòdi a.
