< Ezekiel 13 >
1 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
2 “Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who are now prophesying. Tell those who prophesy out of their own imagination: Hear the word of the LORD!
-Nonm o! Denonse pwofèt pèp Izrayèl yo. Denonse moun sa yo k'ap bay mesaj yo menm yo fè. Di yo: Manyè koute pawòl Seyè a.
3 This is what the Lord GOD says: Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit, yet have seen nothing.
Men mesaj Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di: Madichon pou bann pwofèt egare sa yo! Se yo menm ki fè mesaj y'ap bay la. Yo pa janm fè ankenn vizyon vre.
4 Your prophets, O Israel, are like foxes among the ruins.
Moun Izrayèl yo, koute: Pwofèt nou yo p'ap sèvi nou anyen, se tankou chat mawon k'ap viv nan vye kay kraze.
5 You did not go up to the gaps or restore the wall around the house of Israel so that it would stand in the battle on the Day of the LORD.
Yo pa t' moute lagad kote miray la te make kraze a, ni yo pa t' rebati miray yo. Konsa, moun Izrayèl yo pa gen defans lè lagè va pete jou jijman Seyè a.
6 They see false visions and speak lying divinations. They claim, ‘Thus declares the LORD,’ when the LORD did not send them; yet they wait for the fulfillment of their message.
Vizyon y'ap fè yo se pou twonpe moun, mesaj y'ap bay yo se manti. Yo pretann di se mesaj Bondye y'ap bay. Men, se pa mwen menm ki janm pale ak yo. Lèfini, yo konprann pou m' fè sa yo di k'ap rive a rive vre.
7 Haven’t you seen a false vision and spoken a lying divination when you proclaim, ‘Thus declares the LORD,’ even though I have not spoken?
Mwen tou di yo: Vizyon y'ap fè yo se tèt yo y'ap twonpe. Mesaj y'ap bay yo se manti. Y'ap plede di men mesaj Bondye bay. Men, mwen pa t' janm pale ake yo.
8 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Because you have uttered vain words and seen false visions, I am against you, declares the Lord GOD.
Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di yo: Se twonpe n'ap twonpe moun ak pawòl nou yo. Tout vizyon nou yo se manti. Se poutèt sa m'ap leve dèyè nou tou! Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
9 My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and speak lying divinations. They will not belong to the council of My people or be recorded in the register of the house of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord GOD.
Mwen pral pini pwofèt k'ap fè vizyon pou twonpe moun, k'ap bay mesaj ki pa laverite. p'ap gen plas pou yo lè pèp la va reyini. Yo p'ap gen non yo sou lis fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo. Yo p'ap janm tounen nan peyi a ankò. Lè sa a, y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la.
10 Because they have led My people astray, saying, ‘Peace,’ when there is no peace, and whitewashing any flimsy wall that is built,
Pwofèt yo ap woule pèp mwen an. Anyen p'ap mache nan peyi a. Yo menm menm, y'ap plede di tout bagay ap mache byen. Pèp la ap moute yon miray wòch san mòtye, pwofèt yo menm vini, yo blanchi l' ak dlo lacho.
11 tell those whitewashing the wall that it will fall. Rain will come in torrents, I will send hailstones plunging down, and a windstorm will burst forth.
Di moun k'ap pase dlo lacho sou miray la: Miray la pral tonbe. Mwen pral voye yon gwo lapli. Lagrèl pral tonbe, yon gwo van tanpèt pral soufle.
12 Surely when the wall has fallen, you will not be asked, ‘Where is the whitewash with which you covered it?’
Lè miray la fin tonbe, y'a mande yo kisa dlo lacho a te fè pou miray la.
13 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: In My wrath I will release a windstorm, and in My anger torrents of rain and hail will fall with destructive fury.
Enben, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di: Mwen pral fè yon sèl kòlè, m'ap voye yon gwo van tanpèt, yon gwo lapli ak lagrèl ki pral tonbe pou kraze miray la.
14 I will tear down the wall you whitewashed and level it to the ground, so that its foundation is exposed. The city will fall, and you will be destroyed within it. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
M'ap lage miray nou te blanchi ak lacho a atè, m'ap kraze l' ratè, wòch fondasyon yo pral parèt deyò. Miray la ap tonbe sou nou, l'ap kraze nou. Lè sa a, nou tout va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
15 And after I have vented My wrath against the wall and against those who whitewashed it, I will say to you: ‘The wall is gone, and so are those who whitewashed it—
Mwen pral move sou miray la ansanm ak tout moun ki te blanchi l' ak lacho a. Lè m'a fin fè yo sa m' gen pou m' fè yo a, m'a di nou: Miray la pa la ankò, ni bann moun ki te blanchi l' ak lacho a,
16 those prophets of Israel who prophesied to Jerusalem and saw a vision of peace for her when there was no peace, declares the Lord GOD.’
bann pwofèt pèp Izrayèl yo k'ap bay bèl mesaj pou lavil Jerizalèm lan. Anyen p'ap mache nan peyi a, epi yo menm y'ap plede di yo fè vizyon tout bagay ap mache byen. Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
17 Now, O son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who prophesy out of their own imagination. Prophesy against them
Seyè a di ankò: -Nonm o! Koulye a, vire tèt ou gade nan direksyon medam k'ap fè mesaj yo yo menm! Yo pran pòz pwofèt yo nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la! Denonse yo!
18 and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: Woe to the women who sew magic charms on their wrists and make veils for the heads of people of every height, in order to ensnare their souls. Will you ensnare the souls of My people but preserve your own?
Lèfini, di yo men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, voye di yo: Madichon pou nou, medam! N'ap mare kòd wanga nan ponyèt tout moun. N'ap moute mouchwa tèt pou tout kalite moun pou yo ka gen pouvwa pran nanm moun. Nou dèyè pou nou gen pouvwa fè sa nou vle ak nanm lòt moun san anyen pa rive nou.
19 You have profaned Me among My people for handfuls of barley and scraps of bread. By lying to My people who would listen, you have killed those who should not have died and spared those who should not have lived.
N'ap derespekte mwen devan pèp mwen an. Pou kèk ponyen grenn lòj ak kèk moso pen n'ap touye moun ki pa merite mouri, n'ap sove moun ki pa merite viv ankò. N'ap bay pèp mwen an yon bann manti. Yo menm, yo byen kontan kwè nou.
20 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: See, I am against the magic charms with which you ensnare souls like birds, and I will tear them from your arms. So I will free the souls you have ensnared like birds.
Enben! Men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di: Mwen pa vle wè kòd wanga nan ponyèt nou yo. Se ak yo nou sèvi pou nou pran nanm lòt moun tankou zwezo nan pèlen. M'ap rache yo nan ponyèt nou. M'ap delivre moun nou te pran nan pèlen yo pou y' al fè wout yo.
21 I will also tear off your veils and deliver My people from your hands, so that they will no longer be prey in your hands. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
M'ap rache mouchwa tèt nou yo, m'ap sove pèp mwen an anba men nou. Nou p'ap ka fè sa nou vle ak yo ankò. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
22 Because you have disheartened the righteous with your lies, even though I have caused them no grief, and because you have encouraged the wicked not to turn from their evil ways to save their lives,
Mwen pa ta renmen anyen rive bon moun yo. Men nou menm, avèk manti n'ap bay yo, n'ap dekouraje yo. N'ap ankouraje mechan yo pou yo pa chanje. Nou pa ba yo chans sove lavi yo.
23 therefore you will no longer see false visions or practice divination. I will deliver My people from your hands. Then you will know that I am the LORD.”
Enben! Se poutèt sa koulye a, nou p'ap fè vizyon pou twonpe moun ankò, ni nou p'ap ba yo manti sou sa ki pral rive yo. Mwen pral sove pèp mwen an anba men nou. Konsa, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
