Ezekiel 28

1 The word of Jehovah came again to me, saying,

Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote M ankò e te di:

2 Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Because thy heart is lifted up, and thou have said, I am a god. I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas. Yet thou are man, and not God, though thou did set thy heart as the heart of God.

“Fis a lòm, pale ak chèf Tyr la: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a, “Akoz kè ou vin leve, e ou te di: ‘Mwen se yon dye, Mwen chita sou chèz Bondye, nan kè lanmè yo’; malgre, ou se yon nonm e ou pa yon dye; sepandan, ou ta fè kè ou tankou kè Bondye—

3 Behold, thou are wiser than Daniel. There is no secret that is hidden from thee.

gade byen, ou pi saj ke Daniel. Nanpwen sekrè ki twò difisil pou ou.

4 By thy wisdom and by thine understanding thou have gotten thee riches, and have gotten gold and silver into thy treasures.

Ak sajès ou ak bon konprann ou, ou te vin genyen richès pou tèt ou, e ou te vin gen lò ak ajan pou kès trezò ou yo.

5 By thy great wisdom and by thy traffic thou have increased thy riches. And thy heart is lifted up because of thy riches.

Ak gwo sajès ou, ak komès ou, ou te vin ogmante richès ou e kè ou vin leve akoz richès ou yo—”

6 Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Because thou have set thy heart as the heart of God,

“‘Akoz sa, konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Akoz ou te fè kè ou tankou kè Bondye,

7 therefore, behold, I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations, and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.

akoz sa, gade byen, Mwen va mennen etranje yo sou ou, sila ki pi sovaj pami nasyon yo. Konsa, yo va rale nepe yo kont bèlte a sajès ou, e yo va souye gwo bèlte ou a.

8 They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shall die the death of those who are slain, in the heart of the seas.

Yo va mennen ou desann nan twou fòs la, e ou va mouri lanmò a sila ki touye nan kè lanmè yo.

9 Will thou yet say before him who slays thee, I am God? But thou are man, and not God, in the hand of him who wounds thee.

Èske ou va di: ‘Mwen se yon dye’, nan prezans a sila ki te touye ou a? Donk, ou se yon nonm e ou pa Bondye, nan men a sila ki blese ou yo.

10 Thou shall die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers. For I have spoken it, says the lord Jehovah.

Ou va mouri lanmò a ensikonsi yo, nan men etranje yo, paske Mwen te pale,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a!’”

11 Moreover the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

Ankò pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:

12 Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Thou seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

“Fis a lòm, reprann lamantasyon sou wa Tyr la e di l: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Ou te genyen so pèfeksyon an, plen sajès e pafè an bèlte.

13 Thou were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, the topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold. The workmanship of thy tambourine and of thy pipes was in thee. In the day that thou were created they were prepared.

Ou te nan Éden, jaden Bondye a. Tout pyè presye yo te sèvi pou kouvri ou: Ribi, topaz, dyaman; krizolit, oniks, ak jasp, Safi, malachi, emwòd, epi lò. Baz kalite travay pou tout prezantasyon te nan ou. Nan jou ou te kreye a, yo te prepare.

14 Thou were the anointed cherub who covers. And I set thee, so that thou were upon the holy mountain of God. Thou have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

Ou te cheriben onksyone ki kouvri a e Mwen te plase ou la. Ou te sou mòn sen Bondye a. Ou te mache nan mitan a pyè dife yo.

15 Thou were perfect in thy ways from the day that thou were created, till unrighteousness was found in thee.

Ou te san fot nan tout chemen ou yo depi jou ou te kreye a, jis rive nan lè inikite te vin twouve nan ou a.

16 By the abundance of thy commerce they filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou have sinned. Therefore I have cast thee out of the mountain of God as profane, and I have destroyed thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

Akoz gwo fòs kantite komès ou a, ou te vin ranpli anndan ou ak vyolans e ou te peche. Akoz sa, Mwen te jete ou kon pwofane sòti nan mòn Bondye a. Mwen te detwi ou, O cheriben ki kouvri a, soti nan mitan wòch dife a.

17 Thy heart was lifted up because of thy beauty. Thou have corrupted thy wisdom because of thy brightness. I have cast thee to the ground. I have laid thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

Kè ou te vin leve wo akoz bèlte ou. Ou te fè sajès ou vin konwonpi akoz gwo bèlte ou a. Mwen te jete ou atè. Mwen te mete ou devan wa yo pou yo wè ou.

18 By the multitude of thine iniquities, in the unrighteousness of thy commerce, thou have profaned thy sanctuaries. Therefore I have brought forth a fire from the midst of thee. It has devoured thee, and I have turned thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all those who behold thee.

Akoz gwo fòs kantite inikite ou yo, nan enjistis de komès ou a, ou te pwofane sanktyè ou yo. Akoz sa, Mwen te mennen dife soti nan mitan ou. Li fin manje ou nèt. Mwen te fè ou vin tounen sann sou tè a devan zye a tout moun ki wè ou yo.

19 All those who know thee among the peoples shall be astonished at thee. Thou have become a horror, and thou shall nevermore have any being.

Tout moun ki rekonèt ou pami pèp yo vin etone jiskaske yo vin sezi de ou. Ou te vin yon gwo etonman laperèz, e ou va sispann egziste jis pou tout tan.”’”

20 And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

Pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di:

21 Son of man, set thy face toward Sidon, and prophesy against it,

“Fis a lòm, mete figi ou vè Sidon. Pwofetize kont li,

22 and say, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, O Sidon. And I will be glorified in the midst of thee. And they shall know that I am Jehovah, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.

epi di: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen kont ou, O Sidon, e Mwen va vin glorifye nan mitan ou. Nan lè sa a, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè Mwen egzekite jijman ladann li, e nan li, Mwen vin sen.

23 For I will send pestilence into her, and blood into her streets. And the wounded shall fall in the midst of her, with the sword upon her on every side. And they shall know that I am Jehovah.

Paske Mwen va voye epidemi ak bèt pou ravaje chan l. San ap koule nan ri li yo. Sila ki blese yo va tonbe nan mitan li, e nepe va antoure l tout kote. Konsa, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.

24 And there shall no more be a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor a hurting thorn of any who are round about them, who did spite to them. And they shall know that I am the lord Jehovah.

“‘“P ap gen pou lakay Israël ankò rakbwa pikan ni yon grenn pikan plen doulè k ap sòti nan sila ki te moke yo. Epi yo va konnen ke Mwen se Senyè BONDYE a.”

25 Thus says the lord Jehovah: When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the nations, then they shall dwell in their own land which I gave to my servant Jacob.

“‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Lè M rasanble lakay Israël soti nan pèp kote yo gaye yo, e fè sentete Mwen vin parèt nan yo devan zye a tout nasyon yo, nan lè sa a, yo va viv nan peyi ke M te bay a sèvitè Mwen an, Jacob.

26 And they shall dwell securely therein. Yea, they shall build houses, and plant vineyards, and shall dwell securely, when I have executed judgments upon all those who do them spite round about them. And they shall know that I am Jehovah their God.

Yo va viv an sekirite ladann. Wi, yo va bati kay, plante chan rezen e viv ansekirite lè Mwen egzekite jijman sou tout sila ki moke de yo. Epi yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye yo a.”’”
