Ezayi 5-6
Haitian Creole Version
5 ¶ Mwen pral chante yon chante pou nou, yon chante sou zanmi m' ak jaden rezen l' lan. Zanmi m' lan te gen yon jaden rezen, sou tèt yon ti mòn ki te gen yon bon venn tè.
2 Li bat tout tè a, li wete tout wòch ladan l'. Li plante pi bon kalite pye rezen ladan l'. Apre sa, li bati yon ti kay tou won nan mitan jaden an pou veye l'. Li fè yon basen pou kraze rezen yo. Li te kwè jaden an tapral ba li bon rezen. Men, se vye rezen si ase li bay.
3 Lè sa a, zanmi mwen an di: -Nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm ak moun peyi Jida yo, nou pral di m' kilès nan nou de a, jaden rezen an ak mwen menm, ki antò.
4 Kisa pou m' te fè pou jaden rezen an mwen pa t' fè? Mwen t'ap tann li ban m' bon jan rezen. Poukisa se bann vye rezen si sa yo li donnen?
5 Enben! M'ap fè nou konnen sa mapral fè jaden rezen mwen an. Mwen pral kraze tout lantiray li a pou bèt antre vin manje l', pou yo kraze l' anba pye yo.
6 M'ap fè l' tounen yon jaden yo piye. Yo p'ap netwaye branch li yo, yo p'ap sekle l' ankò. Zèb pikan ak raje ap fin anvayi l'. Mwen p'ap kite lapli tonbe sou li.
7 Pèp Izrayèl la, se li ki jaden rezen Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a. Moun peyi Jida yo, se yo ki bon plan li te plante a. Li t'ap tann yo mache dwat: Yo lage kò yo nan fè lenjistis. Li t'ap tann yo fè sa ki dwat devan je l', men, nan tout peyi a, se rèl malere ase ou tande.
8 ¶ Madichon pou moun k'ap bati kay sou kay, pou moun k'ap achte tè pou mete sou sa yo genyen deja! Talè konsa, p'ap gen plas pou lòt moun nan peyi a. Yo vle se yo menm ase ki pou rete nan peyi a.
9 Men sèman mwen tande Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, fè: Tout kay sa yo gen pou yo tounen mazi. Yo te mèt bèl kou yo bèl, yo te mèt gwo kou yo gwo, p'ap gen moun pou rete ladan yo.
10 Jaden rezen ki sou dis kawo tè ap bay yon sèl barik diven. Pou chak dis mamit grenn yo plante, y'a rekòlte yon sèl mamit.
11 Madichon pou moun k'ap leve granmaten pou yo ale chache gwòg pou yo bwè, pou moun k'ap rete byen ta lannwit pou bwè diven jouk yo sou!
12 Lè y'ap fè fèt, se pou gen gita ak bandjo, tanbou ak fif ak barik plen diven. Men, yo pa chache konprann sa Seyè a ap fè, yo pa wè travay l'ap fè a.
13 Pèp la pa konn anyen menm. Se poutèt sa y'ap fè yo prizonye, y'ap depòte yo. Grannèg yo pral mouri grangou. Pèp la menm ap mouri swaf dlo.
14 Peyi kote mò yo ye a ap tann yo konsa. L'ap louvri pòtay li yo byen gran pou l' resevwa yo. Se la tout grannèg yo pral desann ansanm ak pèp la k'ap fè bri ak kè kontan.
15 Yo pral trennen tout moun nan labou. Yo pral fè yo wont. Tout moun ki t'ap gonfle lestonmak yo pral bese je yo atè.
16 Men, Seyè a pral moutre jan li gen pouvwa lè l'a fè sa li gen pou l' fè a. Li pral fè wè jan li se Bondye tout bon ki apa a lè l'a jije pèp li a.
17 Toupatou, nan lavil yo, mouton yo ap mache manje zèb tankou nan savann. P'ap gen pak ankò pou angrese bèt. Tout bèt ap lage. Y'ap mache manje toupatou nan lavil la.
18 ¶ Madichon pou nou! Nou sitèlman renmen mechanste n'ap fè a, n'ap trennen l' dèyè nou kote nou pase. Peche nou yo te mèt gwo, n'ap rale yo dèyè nou tankou bèt k'ap rale kabwèt!
19 Y'ap plede di: Se pou Bondye fè vit! Se pou li prese fè sa l'ap fè a pou nou ka wè l'. Se pou Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki yon Bondye apa prese fè travay li vle fè a, pou nou ka wè sa li gen nan tèt li.
20 Madichon pou moun ki vle fè byen pase pou mal, mal pase pou byen, pou moun k'ap di fènwa se limyè, limyè se fènwa, pou moun k'ap di bagay anmè dous, bagay dous anmè!
21 Madichon pou moun ki konprann yo gen konesans, pou moun ki mete nan tèt yo yo gen lespri!
22 Madichon pou nou! Lè se boutèy diven pou nou desann, nou pa manke kouraj! Lè se gwòg pike pou nou konpoze, nou pa manke vanyan gason!
23 Men, nou lage moun ki koupab yo pou lajan. Nou pa kite moun k'ap mache dwat yo jwenn jistis.
24 Se sa ki fè y'ap disparèt nou sou tè a tankou pay ak zèb chèch ki boule nan dife. Rasin yo ap pouri anba tè. Van ap pran flè yo, l'ap bwote yo ale tankou pousyè, paske yo pa t' koute lòd Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, te ba yo. Yo te meprize kòmandman Bondye pèp Izrayèl la te bay.
25 Se sa ki fè tou, Seyè a te fache anpil sou pèp li a. Li te leve men l' sou yo, li frape yo. Lè sa a, mòn yo tranble. Kadav moun mouri yo ap trennen nan mitan lari tankou fatra. Men, se poko sa toujou! Se atò Seyè a move. Li poko fin ak yo.
26 Seyè a leve drapo l' pou l' bay siyal la. L'ap rele yon pèp ki byen lwen. L'ap soufle byen fò, l'ap rele moun soti jouk lòt bò nèt, nan dènye bout latè. Gade! Y'ap vole konsa, y'ap kouri vini!
27 Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki bouke! Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki fè bitay! Yo pa konn sa ki rele kabicha, ale wè dòmi! Ren yo toujou mare. Sapat yo toujou mare byen sere nan pye yo.
28 Pwent flèch yo taye byen fen. Banza yo tou pare pou tire. Pye chwal yo di kou wòch. Kabwèt yo woule vit tankou van siklòn.
29 Sòlda yo gwonde tankou fenmèl lyon. Yo rele tankou yon bann ti lyon. Yo gwonde, yo tonbe sou bèt yo pran an, yo pote l' ale. Pa gen moun ki pou rache l' soti nan bouch yo!
30 Jou sa a, y'ap gwonde sou pèp Izrayèl la. Y'ap fè bri tankou lanmè lè li move. Voye je, gade peyi a! Se renk fènwa ak tray pou tout moun. Nwaj nwa bouche toupatou nan syèl la!
6 ¶ Lanne wa Ozyas mouri a, mwen wè Seyè a. Li te chita sou yon gwo fotèy byen wo. Ke rad li te plen tout tanp lan.
2 Yon bann bèt vivan te kanpe fè wonn li. Yo te klere kou flanm dife. Yo chak te gen sis zèl, de zèl pou kouvri figi yo, de zèl pou kouvri pye yo, de zèl pou yo vole.
3 Yo t'ap pale yonn ak lòt byen fò. Yo t'ap di: -Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, li apa! Wi, li apa! Se yon Bondye ki apa vre! Pouvwa li kouvri tout latè.
4 Tout poto kay Bondye a tranble lè bèt vivan yo t'ap rele konsa a. Lafimen te plen tout anndan tanp lan.
5 ¶ Mwen di: -Nanpwen sove pou mwen! Jòdi a m'ap mouri vre! Paske tout pawòl ki soti nan bouch mwen se move pawòl. Epi m'ap viv nan mitan yon pèp ki pa janm gen bon pawòl nan bouch li. Lèfini, mwen wè Wa a, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, avèk pwòp je m'.
6 Yonn nan bèt vivan yo pran yon chabon dife tou limen ak yon pensèt sou lotèl la, li vole vin bò kote m' avèk chabon dife a nan men li.
7 Li kole l' sou bouch mwen, epi li di m' konsa! -Sa a kole sou po bouch ou. Koulye a, ou pa gen peche ankò. Bondye padonnen tou sa ou fè ki mal.
8 Apre sa, mwen tande Seyè a ki t'ap di: -Kilès mwen ta voye la a? Kilès ki ta asepte ale pou nou? Mwen di: -Men mwen. Voye m'!
9 ¶ Epi lè sa a, li di m': -Ale non. Men sa pou ou di pèp la: Louvri zòrèy nou jan nou vle, men nou p'ap konprann anyen! Louvri je nou jan nou vle, men nou p'ap wè sa k'ap rive!
10 Fè lespri pèp la vin lou! Bouche zòrèy yo! Mare je yo! Konsa, yo p'ap ka tande, yo p'ap ka wè, yo p'ap ka konprann. Yo p'ap ka tounen vin jwenn mwen pou m' geri yo.
11 Lè sa a, mwen di: -Seyè! Kilè sa va sispann? Li reponn mwen: -Lè y'a fin kraze lavil yo. Lè p'ap gen moun ankò ki rete ladan yo. Lè tout kay yo va vid, lè jaden yo va tounen savann.
12 Mwen menm, Seyè a, m'a mete tout moun deyò nan peyi a. Tout peyi a pral rete san moun ladan l'.
13 Menm si rete yon sèl moun sou chak dis moun nan peyi a, y'ap toujou disparèt yo. Se va tankou lè yo koupe pye kajou ak pye bwadchenn. Chouk la ase ki va rete. Chouk sa a va pouse ankò, pèp Bondye a va kanpe ankò.
Isaiah 5-6
New International Version
Isaiah 5-6
New International Version
The Song of the Vineyard
5 I will sing for the one I love
a song about his vineyard:(A)
My loved one had a vineyard
on a fertile hillside.
2 He dug it up and cleared it of stones
and planted it with the choicest vines.(B)
He built a watchtower(C) in it
and cut out a winepress(D) as well.
Then he looked for a crop of good grapes,
but it yielded only bad fruit.(E)
3 “Now you dwellers in Jerusalem and people of Judah,
judge between me and my vineyard.(F)
4 What more could have been done for my vineyard
than I have done for it?(G)
When I looked for good grapes,
why did it yield only bad?(H)
5 Now I will tell you
what I am going to do to my vineyard:
I will take away its hedge,
and it will be destroyed;(I)
I will break down its wall,(J)
and it will be trampled.(K)
6 I will make it a wasteland,(L)
neither pruned nor cultivated,
and briers and thorns(M) will grow there.
I will command the clouds
not to rain(N) on it.”
7 The vineyard(O) of the Lord Almighty
is the nation of Israel,
and the people of Judah
are the vines he delighted in.
And he looked for justice,(P) but saw bloodshed;
for righteousness,(Q) but heard cries of distress.(R)
Woes and Judgments
8 Woe(S) to you who add house to house
and join field to field(T)
till no space is left
and you live alone in the land.
9 The Lord Almighty(U) has declared in my hearing:(V)
“Surely the great houses will become desolate,(W)
the fine mansions left without occupants.
10 A ten-acre vineyard will produce only a bath[a] of wine;
a homer[b] of seed will yield only an ephah[c] of grain.”(X)
11 Woe(Y) to those who rise early in the morning
to run after their drinks,
who stay up late at night
till they are inflamed with wine.(Z)
12 They have harps and lyres at their banquets,
pipes(AA) and timbrels(AB) and wine,
but they have no regard(AC) for the deeds of the Lord,
no respect for the work of his hands.(AD)
13 Therefore my people will go into exile(AE)
for lack of understanding;(AF)
those of high rank(AG) will die of hunger
and the common people will be parched with thirst.(AH)
14 Therefore Death(AI) expands its jaws,
opening wide its mouth;(AJ)
into it will descend their nobles and masses
with all their brawlers and revelers.(AK)
15 So people will be brought low(AL)
and everyone humbled,(AM)
the eyes of the arrogant(AN) humbled.
16 But the Lord Almighty will be exalted(AO) by his justice,(AP)
and the holy God will be proved holy(AQ) by his righteous acts.
17 Then sheep will graze as in their own pasture;(AR)
lambs will feed[d] among the ruins of the rich.
18 Woe(AS) to those who draw sin along with cords(AT) of deceit,
and wickedness(AU) as with cart ropes,
19 to those who say, “Let God hurry;
let him hasten(AV) his work
so we may see it.
The plan of the Holy One(AW) of Israel—
let it approach, let it come into view,
so we may know it.”(AX)
20 Woe(AY) to those who call evil good(AZ)
and good evil,(BA)
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,(BB)
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter.(BC)
21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes(BD)
and clever in their own sight.
22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine(BE)
and champions at mixing drinks,(BF)
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe,(BG)
but deny justice(BH) to the innocent.(BI)
24 Therefore, as tongues of fire(BJ) lick up straw(BK)
and as dry grass sinks down in the flames,
so their roots will decay(BL)
and their flowers blow away like dust;(BM)
for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty
and spurned the word(BN) of the Holy One(BO) of Israel.
25 Therefore the Lord’s anger(BP) burns against his people;
his hand is raised and he strikes them down.
The mountains shake,(BQ)
and the dead bodies(BR) are like refuse(BS) in the streets.(BT)
26 He lifts up a banner(BW) for the distant nations,
he whistles(BX) for those at the ends of the earth.(BY)
Here they come,
swiftly and speedily!
27 Not one of them grows tired(BZ) or stumbles,
not one slumbers or sleeps;
not a belt(CA) is loosened at the waist,(CB)
not a sandal strap is broken.(CC)
28 Their arrows are sharp,(CD)
all their bows(CE) are strung;
their horses’ hooves(CF) seem like flint,
their chariot wheels like a whirlwind.(CG)
29 Their roar is like that of the lion,(CH)
they roar like young lions;
they growl as they seize(CI) their prey
and carry it off with no one to rescue.(CJ)
30 In that day(CK) they will roar over it
like the roaring of the sea.(CL)
And if one looks at the land,
there is only darkness(CM) and distress;(CN)
even the sun will be darkened(CO) by clouds.
Isaiah’s Commission
6 In the year that King Uzziah(CP) died,(CQ) I saw the Lord,(CR) high and exalted,(CS) seated on a throne;(CT) and the train of his robe(CU) filled the temple. 2 Above him were seraphim,(CV) each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet,(CW) and with two they were flying. 3 And they were calling to one another:
4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.(DB)
5 “Woe(DC) to me!” I cried. “I am ruined!(DD) For I am a man of unclean lips,(DE) and I live among a people of unclean lips,(DF) and my eyes have seen(DG) the King,(DH) the Lord Almighty.”(DI)
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal(DJ) in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips;(DK) your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.(DL)”
8 Then I heard the voice(DM) of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send?(DN) And who will go for us?(DO)”
And I said, “Here am I.(DP) Send me!”
9 He said, “Go(DQ) and tell this people:
“‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding;
be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’(DR)
10 Make the heart of this people calloused;(DS)
make their ears dull
and close their eyes.[e](DT)
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,(DU)
understand with their hearts,
and turn and be healed.”(DV)
11 Then I said, “For how long, Lord?”(DW)
And he answered:
“Until the cities lie ruined(DX)
and without inhabitant,
until the houses are left deserted(DY)
and the fields ruined and ravaged,(DZ)
12 until the Lord has sent everyone far away(EA)
and the land is utterly forsaken.(EB)
13 And though a tenth remains(EC) in the land,
it will again be laid waste.(ED)
But as the terebinth and oak
leave stumps(EE) when they are cut down,
so the holy(EF) seed will be the stump in the land.”(EG)

Isaiah 5-6
King James Version
Isaiah 5-6
King James Version
5 Now will I sing to my wellbeloved a song of my beloved touching his vineyard. My wellbeloved hath a vineyard in a very fruitful hill:
2 And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
3 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.
4 What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes?
5 And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; and break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down:
6 And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, nor digged; but there shall come up briers and thorns: I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain upon it.
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry.
8 Woe unto them that join house to house, that lay field to field, till there be no place, that they may be placed alone in the midst of the earth!
9 In mine ears said the Lord of hosts, Of a truth many houses shall be desolate, even great and fair, without inhabitant.
10 Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and the seed of an homer shall yield an ephah.
11 Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them!
12 And the harp, and the viol, the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in their feasts: but they regard not the work of the Lord, neither consider the operation of his hands.
13 Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.
14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.
15 And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:
16 But the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.
17 Then shall the lambs feed after their manner, and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers eat.
18 Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as it were with a cart rope:
19 That say, Let him make speed, and hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
22 Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink:
23 Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!
24 Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the Lord of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Therefore is the anger of the Lord kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath smitten them: and the hills did tremble, and their carcases were torn in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
26 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly:
27 None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:
28 Whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent, their horses' hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind:
29 Their roaring shall be like a lion, they shall roar like young lions: yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry it away safe, and none shall deliver it.
30 And in that day they shall roar against them like the roaring of the sea: and if one look unto the land, behold darkness and sorrow, and the light is darkened in the heavens thereof.
6 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts.
6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
11 Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,
12 And the Lord have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.
13 But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.

Haitian Creole Version
1 ¶ Mwen menm, Pòl, yon moun Bondye te deside chwazi pou apòt Jezikri, m'ap ekri lèt sa a voye bay tout pèp Bondye ki nan lavil Efèz la, k'ap kenbe fèm nan lavi y'ap mennen ansanm nan Jezikri.
2 Mwen mande Bondye Papa nou ansanm ak Jezikri, Seyè nou, pou yo ban nou benediksyon ak kè poze.
3 ¶ Lwanj pou Bondye, Papa Jezikri, Seyè nou an. Se li menm ki beni nou nan lavi n'ap mennen ansanm nan Kris la. Li ban nou tout kalite benediksyon pou nou ka viv dapre egzijans Lespri Bondye nan syèl la.
4 Byen lontan anvan Bondye te kreye lemonn, li te chwazi nou nan Kris la pou nou te kapab viv apa pou li, pou n' te san repwòch devan li. Nan renmen li renmen nou an,
5 Bondye te deside depi davans pou l' te adopte nou pou pitit li nan Jezikri, paske sa te fè l' plezi.
6 Se poutèt sa, ann toujou fè lwanj Bondye pou bèl favè sa a li fè nou kado, gremesi Pitit li renmen anpil la!
7 Gremesi Kris ki mouri pou nou an, nou delivre, nou resevwa padon pou peche nou yo; Bondye fè nou wè jan li renmen nou anpil.
8 Li ban nou favè l' an kantite, li ban nou tout kalite konprann ak konesans.
9 Li fè nou konnen plan travay li te kenbe sekrè nan kè l', plan travay li te gen lide fè depi lontan an. Se plan sa a li vin reyalize nan Kris la.
10 Dapre plan travay Bondye a, plan ki gen pou fin reyalize nèt lè lè a va rive, Bondye ap mete tout bagay ki nan syèl la ansanm ak tout bagay ki sou latè a anba yon sèl chèf, anba Kris la.
11 Bondye ap fè tout bagay rive jan l' te deside l' la ak jan l' te vle l' la. Konsa, nou menm jwif, nou se moun Bondye te chwazi depi davans dapre plan li. Lè n'ap viv ansanm nan Kris la, nou resevwa pòsyon pa nou nan byen l' yo.
12 Se sak fè, nou menm ki premye moun ki t'ap tann Kris la, n'ap viv yon jan ki sèvi yon lwanj pou pouvwa Bondye a.
13 Konsa tou, nou menm, moun lòt nasyon yo, apre nou te fin tande mesaj laverite a, ki vle di bon nouvèl k'ap fè nou konnen jan Bondye delivre nou an, nou te mete konfyans nou nan Kris la, n'ap viv ansanm nan Kris la tou. Bondye te make nou ak letanp li tou, li ban nou Sentespri li te pwòmèt la.
14 Sentespri sa a, se yon avalwa Bondye ban nou sou eritaj li te pwòmèt li t'ap bay pèp li a. Sa ban nou garanti Bondye gen pou fin delivre moun pa l' yo nèt. Se sak fè, nou menm tou, moun lòt nasyon yo, n'ap sèvi yon lwanj pou pouvwa Bondye a tou.
15 ¶ Se poutèt tout bagay sa yo, depi mwen tande jan nou gen konfyans nan Kris la, jan nou renmen tout moun ki fè pati pèp Bondye a,
16 mwen pa janm sispann di Bondye mèsi pou nou. Mwen toujou chonje nou lè m'ap lapriyè.
17 Bondye Jezikri, Seyè nou an, fè nou konnen an, se yon papa ki gen anpil pouvwa. Mwen mande l' pou li ban nou Sentespri l' ki bay bon konprann ki moutre nou sa Bondye ap devwale nou an pou nou ka rive konnen l' byen.
18 Mwen mande l' pou l' louvri lespri nou, pou nou ka konnen kisa n'ap tann nan men Bondye ki rele nou an, ki vle di eritaj Bondye pwòmèt l'ap bay moun ki pou li yo, yon eritaj ki rich anpil, ki bèl anpil.
19 Mwen mande l' pou nou ka konnen tou ki jan pouvwa li k'ap travay nan nou menm ki kwè nan li a, se yon gwo pouvwa ki san limit. Se menm gwo pouvwa sa a Bondye te fè moun wè,
20 lè li te fè Kris la leve soti vivan nan mitan mò yo, li fè l' chita sou bò dwat li nan syèl la.
21 Li mete Kris la anwo tout chèf, anwo tout otorite, tout pouvwa ak tout dominasyon. Kris la pi wo pase tout gwo non yo kapab bay moun non sèlman koulye a sou latè, men nan tan ki gen pou vini an tou.
22 Bondye mete tout bagay anba pye Kris la, li mete l' pou l' sèl chèf legliz la.
23 Legliz la se kò Kris la, li konplete Kris la. Kris la menm, avèk pouvwa li, li konplete tout bagay ki toupatou.

1 Paul, an apostle(A) of Christ Jesus by the will of God,(B)
To God’s holy people(C) in Ephesus,[a](D) the faithful(E) in Christ Jesus:
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.(F)
Praise for Spiritual Blessings in Christ
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,(G) who has blessed us in the heavenly realms(H) with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For he chose us(I) in him before the creation of the world(J) to be holy and blameless(K) in his sight. In love(L) 5 he[b] predestined(M) us for adoption to sonship[c](N) through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure(O) and will— 6 to the praise of his glorious grace,(P) which he has freely given us in the One he loves.(Q) 7 In him we have redemption(R) through his blood,(S) the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches(T) of God’s grace 8 that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, 9 he[d] made known to us the mystery(U) of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed(V) in Christ, 10 to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment(W)—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.(X)
11 In him we were also chosen,[e] having been predestined(Y) according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose(Z) of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.(AA) 13 And you also were included in Christ(AB) when you heard the message of truth,(AC) the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal,(AD) the promised Holy Spirit,(AE) 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance(AF) until the redemption(AG) of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.(AH)
Thanksgiving and Prayer
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus(AI) and your love for all God’s people,(AJ) 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you,(AK) remembering you in my prayers.(AL) 17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father,(AM) may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom(AN) and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened(AO) in order that you may know the hope to which he has called(AP) you, the riches(AQ) of his glorious inheritance(AR) in his holy people,(AS) 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power(AT) is the same as the mighty strength(AU) 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead(AV) and seated him at his right hand(AW) in the heavenly realms,(AX) 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion,(AY) and every name(AZ) that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.(BA) 22 And God placed all things under his feet(BB) and appointed him to be head(BC) over everything for the church, 23 which is his body,(BD) the fullness of him(BE) who fills everything in every way.(BF)

King James Version
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
8 Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;
9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:
10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:
11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
