There are no programs that can translate any language *properly*. Languages are very complex systems. Especially, resolving the ambiguities in the text is something a machine promptly fails to do. Machines can't translate idioms, which are an essential and very frequent part of every human language. If you want something that translates text but it translates it a la google translate, that is, terribly inaccurately, I'm sure there are programs that can do it, but if you want a decent translation you have two options: paying someone for the translation or learning the language.
