< Ezekiel 5 >

1 And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp sword. As a barber's razor thou shall take it to thee, and shall cause it to pass upon thy head and upon thy beard. Then take thee balances to weigh and divide the hair.
Seyè a di mwen: -Nonm o! Pran yon kouto byen file, tankou razwa kwafè, wete tout bab nan figi ou ak tout cheve nan tèt ou. Lèfini, pran yon balans pou peze cheve ou koupe yo, w'a fè yo fè twa pil menm fòs.
2 A third part thou shall burn in the fire in the midst of the city when the days of the siege are fulfilled, and thou shall take a third part, and smite with the sword round about it, and a third part thou shall scatter to the wind. And I will draw out a sword after them.
Lè y'a sispann sènen lavil la, w'a boule yon premye pil nan mitan lavil la. W'a pran yon dezyèm pil, w'a koupe l' ti moso ti moso avèk nepe a pandan w'ap fè tou lavil la pa deyò. Dènye pil cheve a menm, w'a voye l' anlè pou van pote yo ale. Mwen menm, m'a kouri dèyè yo ak nepe mwen.
3 And thou shall take from it a few in number, and bind them in thy skirts.
W'a sere yon ponyen cheve, w'a koud li nan woulèt rad ou.
4 And of these again thou shall take, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire. From there a fire shall come forth into all the house of Israel.
Lèfini, w'a pran de twa branch cheve nan sa ou te sere yo, w'a voye yo jete nan dife pou yo boule. Dife a ap gaye nan tout peyi Izrayèl la.
5 Thus says the lord Jehovah: This is Jerusalem. I have set her in the midst of the nations, and countries are round about her.
Men sa Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa, di ankò: -Gade lavil Jerizalèm! Mwen te mete l' kanpe nan mitan latè ak tout lòt nasyon yo bò kote l'.
6 And she has rebelled against my ordinances in doing wickedness more than the nations, and against my statutes more than the countries that are round about her, for they have rejected my ordinances, and as for my statutes, they have not walked in them.
Men, Jerizalèm revòlte kont kòmandman ak lòd mwen yo. Li fè pi mal pase lòt nasyon ki bò kote l' yo. Moun li yo derefize swiv prensip mwen te ba yo. Yo pa fè sa m' te ba yo lòd fè a.
7 Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Because ye are more disorderly than the nations that are round about you, and have not walked in my statutes, nor have kept my ordinances, no, ye have not even done according to the ordinances of the nations that are round about you,
Se poutèt sa, nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, di nou: Nou pa swiv lòd mwen yo, nou pa fè sa m' te mande nou fè. Konsa, nou fè pi mal pase moun lòt nasyon ki bò kote nou yo. Nou pa menm swiv lòd moun lòt nasyon yo gen lakay yo.
8 therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and I will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the sight of the nations.
Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè a, Bondye nan syèl la, di ou: M'ap leve dèyè ou tou, mwen pral pini ou devan tout lòt nasyon yo.
9 And I will do in thee that which I have not done, and of which I will not do any more the like, because of all thine abominations.
N'ap fè yon bann bagay mwen pa vle wè menm. Se poutèt sa m'ap pini lavil Jerizalèm jan mwen poko janm pini l', jan mwen p'ap janm pini l' ankò.
10 Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of thee, and the sons shall eat their fathers. And I will execute judgments on thee, and I will scatter to all the winds the whole remnant of thee.
Se poutèt sa, nan lavil Jerizalèm papa ak manman va manje pwòp pitit yo, pitit va manje papa ak manman yo. M'ap pini nou, m'ap gaye rès moun ki va rete yo toupatou.
11 Therefore, as I live, says the lord Jehovah, surely, because thou have defiled my sanctuary with all thy detestable things, and with all thine abominations, therefore I also will diminish thee, nor shall my eye spare. And I also will have no pity.
Se poutèt sa, jan nou konnen mwen vivan vre a, se mwen menm Seyè, Sèl Mèt la, k'ap pale: Paske nou derespekte tanp mwen an ak tout vye bagay degoutan ansanm ak bann bagay mwen pa vle wè menm nou te fè ladan l' yo, mwen fè sèman, mwen menm tou m'ap san pitye pou nou. M'ap voye nou jete, mwen p'ap kite nou yonn chape.
12 A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and they shall be consumed with famine in the midst of thee, and a third part shall fall by the sword round about thee, and a third part I will scatter to all the winds, and will draw out a sword after them.
Pèp la ap fè twa pòsyon, yon pòsyon pral mouri anba maladi ak grangou nan lavil la, yon lòt pòsyon pral mouri nan lagè lòt bò miray ranpa lavil la. M'ap gaye rès la nan tout direksyon. Lèfini, m'ap kouri dèyè yo ak nepe.
13 Thus my anger shall be accomplished, and I will cause my wrath toward them to rest, and I shall be comforted. And they shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken in my zeal, when I have accomplished my wrath upon them.
M'a tire revanj mwen, m'ap krase yo dèske yo fè m' fè kòlè, m'ap move sou yo jouk mwen pa kapab ankò. Lè sa a, y'a rekonèt se mwen menm Seyè a ki te pale konsa ak yo, paske yo te pouse m' fè jalouzi, mwen te fache sou yo jouk mwen pa kapab ankò.
14 Moreover I will make thee a desolation and a reproach among the nations that are round about thee, in the sight of all who pass by.
M'ap fè nou tounen yon dezè nan mitan tout lòt peyi yo, yon wont pou moun k'ap pase bò kote nou ye a.
15 So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, a lesson and an astonishment, to the nations that are round about thee, when I shall execute judgments on thee in anger and in wrath, and in wrathful rebukes-I, Jehovah, have spoken it-
Lè m'a fè kòlè a, lè m'a move anpil sou nou an, lè m'a pini nou rèd mare jan mwen te vle l' la, m'ap avili nou, m'ap fè nou tounen yon wont. N'a sèvi yon avètisman pou tout nasyon ki bò kote nou yo, y'a soti pè lè y'a wè sa ki rive nou. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
16 when I shall send upon them the evil arrows of famine that are for destruction, which I will send to destroy you. And I will increase the famine upon you, and will break your staff of bread.
M'ap koupe viv nou, m'ap kite nou mouri grangou. Nou pral santi doulè grangou a tankou si se flèch yo voye sou nou pou touye nou.
17 And I will send upon you famine and evil beasts, and they shall bereave thee. And pestilence and blood shall pass through thee. And I will bring the sword upon thee. I, Jehovah, have spoken it.
M'ap voye grangou ak bèt nan bwa k'ap touye tout pitit nou yo. Move maladi pral tonbe sou nou, y'ap mete san nou deyò. M'ap voye lènmi vin fè nou lagè. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki pale.
