44 ¶ Seyè a di ankò: -Koute m' byen koulye a, nou menm fanmi Jakòb, sèvitè m' yo, nou menm pèp Izrayèl mwen te chwazi pou mwen an.
2 Men sa Seyè ki te kreye nou an, Seyè k'ap ede nou depi nan vant manman nou an, di: -Nou pa bezwen pè anyen, nou menm fanmi Jakòb, sèvitè m' yo, nou menm pèp Jechouwoun mwen te chwazi pou mwen an.
3 M'ap vide dlo sou tè sèk la. M'ap fè sous dlo koule nan dezè a. M'ap bay pitit nou yo pouvwa lespri mwen. M'ap voye benediksyon m' sou pitit pitit nou yo.
4 Yo pral pouse tankou zèb ki jwenn lapli, tankou banbou bò larivyè.
5 Yonn apre lòt, moun yo pral di: -Se pou Seyè a mwen ye! Y'a vin mete tèt yo ansanm ak fanmi Jakòb yo. Yo tout pral make non Seyè a nan pla men yo. Y'a di se moun pèp Izrayèl la yo ye tou.
6 Seyè ki wa pèp Izrayèl la, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, li menm k'ap delivre pèp la, men sa li di: -Se mwen menm ki te la anvan tout bagay, Se mwen menm k'ap la apre tout bagay. Pa gen lòt bondye pase mwen menm sèl.
7 Kilès ki tankou m'? Se pou l' kanpe di sa! Se pou l' fè nou konn sa, se pou l' ban m' prèv la! Se pou l' di tou sa ki pase depi nan konmansman! Se pou l' fè konnen davans sa ki gen pou rive.
8 Nou pa bezwen pè, nou pa bezwen tranble. Depi lontan mwen te fè nou konn sa, mwen te di nou sa. Nou pral kanpe pale pou mwen. Eske gen lòt bondye pase mwen menm? Eske gen lòt bondye ki ka pwoteje moun? Mwen menm, mwen pa konnen l'.
9 ¶ Tout moun k'ap fè estati zidòl yo, se moun ki pa vo anyen. Bondye yo renmen anpil yo pa ka fè anyen pou yo. Moun k'ap pran pou yo se moun ki pa wè, moun ki pa konn anyen. Se pou sa yo pral wont pita.
10 Ki moun k'ap fè pòtre yon bondye, k'ap fonn metal pou fè yon estati san li pa wè avantaj li ladan l'?
11 Moun k'ap sèvi estati zidòl yo pral wont. Moun k'ap fè estati yo, se moun yo ye. Se pou yo vini pou yo konparèt devan tribinal la. Se pou yo pè, se pou yo wont!
12 Bòs fòjon an pran yon moso fè, li mete l' nan dife, li travay li ak mato. Li ba l' fòm li vle ak fòs ponyèt li. Li pa manje, li vin fèb. Li pa bwè dlo, li pa kapab ankò.
13 Moun k'ap travay bwa a menm pran mezi yon moso bwa, li trase pòtre zidòl la sou li ak moso lakre, li travay li ak sizo. Li ba li fòm yon moun, fòm yon bèl moun, pou l' mete l' nan yon tanp.
14 Li ka koupe yon pye sèd. Li ka chwazi yon pye chenn, osinon yon pye kajou nan rakbwa a. Li ka plante yon pye pichpen epi li tann pou lapli fè l' grandi.
15 Moun sèvi ak moso nan rès bwa a pou boule. Yo fè dife pou yo chofe kò yo, pou yo kwit manje. Avèk rès bwa a yo fè yon bondye pou yo sèvi, yon estati pou yo mete ajenou devan l'.
16 Avèk mwatye nan bwa a, yo fè dife, yo griye vyann, yo manje plen vant yo. Yo chofe kò yo tou, epi yo di: Dife a bon! Li cho! Ala bèl dife!
17 Avèk rès bwa a, yo fè estati yon bondye pou yo sèvi. Yo mete ajenou devan l', yo lapriyè devan l', y'ap di: Ou se bondye mwen. Delivre m' non!
18 Moun sa yo pa konn anyen, yo pa konprann anyen, paske je yo bouche, yo pa ka wè. Lespri yo bouche, yo pa konprann anyen.
19 Moun k'ap fè zidòl yo pa kalkile nan tèt yo, yo pa konn anyen, yo pa gen konprann pou yo ta di: Mwen boule mwatye bwa a nan dife. Mwen kwit manje sou chabon dife a. Mwen griye vyann pou m' manje. Avèk rès bwa a mwen fè yon bagay k'ap avili m', yon zidòl. M'ap adore yon bout bwa!
20 Se tankou si yo te mete konfyans yo nan sann dife. Se tèt yo y'ap twonpe. Yo pèdi wout yo. Yo p'ap ka sove lavi yo, yo pa konprann zidòl yo gen nan men yo a se pa bondye li ye.
21 ¶ Seyè a di: -Nou menm fanmi Jakòb yo, chonje bagay sa yo byen! Nou menm pèp Izrayèl, chonje se sèvitè m' nou ye. Se mwen menm ki te fè nou pou nou te ka sèvi m'. Mwen p'ap janm bliye nou!
22 Mwen te fè peche nou yo disparèt devan je m' tankou yon nwaj nan syèl la. Tounen vin jwenn mwen non, paske se mwen menm ki te delivre nou.
23 Ou menm syèl la, chante byen fò! Se pou tout kote ki byen fon anba tè a fè fèt! Se pou mòn yo rele tank yo kontan! Se pou rakbwa yo ansanm ak tout pyebwa ki ladan yo danse fè fèt. Paske Seyè a delivre fanmi Jakòb la, li fè moun Izrayèl yo wè pouvwa li.
24 Men sa Seyè a di, li menm ki delivre nou, li menm ki te fè nou depi nan vant manman nou: -Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki fè tout bagay. Se pou kont mwen mwen te louvri syèl la anwo tèt nou. Lè m' t'ap fè latè, kilès ki te ede m'?
25 Se mwen menm ki fè siy yo te predi yo pèdi sans yo. Se mwen menm ki fè divinò yo depale. Mwen demanti pawòl moun save yo. Mwen fè yo wè tout konesans yo se bagay moun fou.
26 Men lè sèvitè m' pale, mwen ba l' rezon. Lè mesaje m' yo bay yon pawòl, mwen fè l' rive vre. Mwen di moun va rete lavil Jerizalèm ankò. Yo pral rebati lavil peyi Jida yo. Lavil li yo ki te bandonnen pral kanpe ankò.
27 Mwen menm ki te bay lanmè a lòd pou li cheche, m'ap cheche tout rivyè nou yo.
28 Mwen di wa Siris se li ki pral gouvènen pou mwen! Li pral fè tou sa m'a mande l' fè. Li pral bay lòd pou yo rebati lavil Jerizalèm, pou yo refè fondasyon tanp Bondye a.
Isaiah 44
New International Version
Isaiah 44
New International Version
Israel the Chosen
44 “But now listen, Jacob, my servant,(A)
Israel, whom I have chosen.(B)
2 This is what the Lord says—
he who made(C) you, who formed you in the womb,(D)
and who will help(E) you:
Do not be afraid,(F) Jacob, my servant,(G)
Jeshurun,[a](H) whom I have chosen.
3 For I will pour water(I) on the thirsty land,
and streams on the dry ground;(J)
I will pour out my Spirit(K) on your offspring,
and my blessing(L) on your descendants.(M)
4 They will spring up like grass(N) in a meadow,
like poplar trees(O) by flowing streams.(P)
5 Some will say, ‘I belong(Q) to the Lord’;
others will call themselves by the name of Jacob;
still others will write on their hand,(R) ‘The Lord’s,’(S)
and will take the name Israel.
The Lord, Not Idols
6 “This is what the Lord says—
Israel’s King(T) and Redeemer,(U) the Lord Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last;(V)
apart from me there is no God.(W)
7 Who then is like me?(X) Let him proclaim it.
Let him declare and lay out before me
what has happened since I established my ancient people,
and what is yet to come—
yes, let them foretell(Y) what will come.
8 Do not tremble, do not be afraid.
Did I not proclaim(Z) this and foretell it long ago?
You are my witnesses. Is there any God(AA) besides me?
No, there is no other Rock;(AB) I know not one.”
9 All who make idols(AC) are nothing,
and the things they treasure are worthless.(AD)
Those who would speak up for them are blind;(AE)
they are ignorant, to their own shame.(AF)
10 Who shapes a god and casts an idol,(AG)
which can profit nothing?(AH)
11 People who do that will be put to shame;(AI)
such craftsmen are only human beings.
Let them all come together and take their stand;
they will be brought down to terror and shame.(AJ)
12 The blacksmith(AK) takes a tool
and works with it in the coals;
he shapes an idol with hammers,
he forges it with the might of his arm.(AL)
He gets hungry and loses his strength;
he drinks no water and grows faint.(AM)
13 The carpenter(AN) measures with a line
and makes an outline with a marker;
he roughs it out with chisels
and marks it with compasses.
He shapes it in human form,(AO)
human form in all its glory,
that it may dwell in a shrine.(AP)
14 He cut down cedars,
or perhaps took a cypress or oak.
He let it grow among the trees of the forest,
or planted a pine,(AQ) and the rain made it grow.
15 It is used as fuel(AR) for burning;
some of it he takes and warms himself,
he kindles a fire and bakes bread.
But he also fashions a god and worships(AS) it;
he makes an idol and bows(AT) down to it.
16 Half of the wood he burns in the fire;
over it he prepares his meal,
he roasts his meat and eats his fill.
He also warms himself and says,
“Ah! I am warm; I see the fire.(AU)”
17 From the rest he makes a god, his idol;
he bows down to it and worships.(AV)
He prays(AW) to it and says,
“Save(AX) me! You are my god!”
18 They know nothing, they understand(AY) nothing;
their eyes(AZ) are plastered over so they cannot see,
and their minds closed so they cannot understand.
19 No one stops to think,
no one has the knowledge or understanding(BA) to say,
“Half of it I used for fuel;(BB)
I even baked bread over its coals,
I roasted meat and I ate.
Shall I make a detestable(BC) thing from what is left?
Shall I bow down to a block of wood?”(BD)
20 Such a person feeds on ashes;(BE) a deluded(BF) heart misleads him;
he cannot save himself, or say,
“Is not this thing in my right hand a lie?(BG)”
21 “Remember(BH) these things, Jacob,
for you, Israel, are my servant.(BI)
I have made you, you are my servant;(BJ)
Israel, I will not forget you.(BK)
22 I have swept away(BL) your offenses like a cloud,
your sins like the morning mist.
Return(BM) to me,
for I have redeemed(BN) you.”
23 Sing for joy,(BO) you heavens, for the Lord has done this;
shout aloud, you earth(BP) beneath.
Burst into song, you mountains,(BQ)
you forests and all your trees,(BR)
for the Lord has redeemed(BS) Jacob,
he displays his glory(BT) in Israel.
Jerusalem to Be Inhabited
I am the Lord,
the Maker of all things,
who stretches out the heavens,(BX)
who spreads out the earth(BY) by myself,
25 who foils(BZ) the signs of false prophets
and makes fools of diviners,(CA)
who overthrows the learning of the wise(CB)
and turns it into nonsense,(CC)
26 who carries out the words(CD) of his servants
and fulfills(CE) the predictions of his messengers,
who says of Jerusalem,(CF) ‘It shall be inhabited,’
of the towns of Judah, ‘They shall be rebuilt,’
and of their ruins,(CG) ‘I will restore them,’(CH)
27 who says to the watery deep, ‘Be dry,
and I will dry up(CI) your streams,’
28 who says of Cyrus,(CJ) ‘He is my shepherd
and will accomplish all that I please;
he will say of Jerusalem,(CK) “Let it be rebuilt,”
and of the temple,(CL) “Let its foundations(CM) be laid.”’
