Ezekiel 28
1 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
2 “Son of man, tell the ruler of Tyre that this is what the Lord GOD says: Your heart is proud, and you have said, ‘I am a god; I sit in the seat of gods in the heart of the sea.’ Yet you are a man and not a god, though you have regarded your heart as that of a god.
-Nonm o! Pale ak chèf peyi Tir la, di li: Men mesaj Seyè sèl Mèt la voye ba li: Lògèy vire lòlòj ou! Ou pretann di se yon bondye ou ye. Ou chita tankou Bondye sou fotèy ou, nan mitan lanmè. Ou mèt pran pòz bondye ou jan ou vle, se moun ou ye, ou pa Bondye.
3 Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is hidden from you!
Ou met nan tèt ou ou gen plis konprann pase Danèl. Pa gen sekrè ki kache pou ou.
4 By your wisdom and understanding you have gained your wealth and amassed gold and silver for your treasuries.
Se bon konprann ou ak lespri ou genyen ki fè ou rich konsa. Ou ranmase bonkou lò ak ajan mete lakay ou.
5 By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, but your heart has grown proud because of it.
Ou gen anpil ladrès nan fè kòmès, ou fè anpil lajan. Ou kite richès ou yo vire tèt ou.
6 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Because you regard your heart as the heart of a god,
Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di ou: Ou met nan tèt ou ou gen konprann tankou Bondye.
7 behold, I will bring foreigners against you, the most ruthless of nations. They will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom and will defile your splendor.
Enben, mwen pral fè moun lòt nasyon vin atake ou. San manman pase yo pa genyen. Yo pral kraze dènye bèl bagay ou te ranmase ak bon konprann ou an. Yo p'ap gen respè pou gwo pozisyon ou lan.
8 They will bring you down to the Pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas.
Yo pral touye ou. Ou pral mouri neye nan mitan lanmè.
9 Will you still say, ‘I am a god,’ in the presence of those who slay you? You will be only a man, not a god, in the hands of those who wound you.
Lè y'a vini pou yo touye ou la, w'a pretann di se yon bondye ou ye toujou? Pou moun k'ap touye ou yo, se moun w'ap ye. Ou p'ap yon bondye kras.
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of foreigners. For I have spoken,
W'ap mouri tankou moun ki pa konn Bondye. Se moun lòt nasyon yo k'ap touye ou. Mwen fin pale. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
11 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
12 “Son of man, take up a lament for the king of Tyre and tell him that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
-Nonm o! Ou pral plenn sò k'ap tann wa peyi Tir la. Di li: Men mesaj Seyè sèl Mèt la voye ba ou: Te gen yon lè se ou ki te pi bon. Tout moun t'ap gade sou ou. Ou te gen bon konprann. Ou te yon bèl bagay nan je tout moun.
13 You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every kind of precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and emerald. Your mountings and settings were crafted in gold, prepared on the day of your creation.
Ou t'ap viv nan jaden Edenn lan, jaden Bondye a. Ou te mete tout kalite bèl pyè koute chè sou ou: ribi, topaz, dyaman, krizolit, oniks, jasp, safi, malachi, emwòd. Tout bèl bijou ki te sou ou te fèt an lò. Se jou Bondye t'ap kreye ou la li te fè pare yo pou ou.
14 You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for I had ordained you. You were on the holy mountain of God; you walked among the fiery stones.
Mwen mete yon zanj cheriben avè ou pou pwoteje ou. Se sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an ou te rete. Ou mache nan mitan gwo dife.
15 From the day you were created you were blameless in your ways— until wickedness was found in you.
Depi jou Bondye kreye ou la, ou pa t' fè anyen pou yo te fè ou repwòch, jouk jou ou konmanse fè sa ki mal.
16 By the vastness of your trade, you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mountain of God, and I banished you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones.
Pou fè kòmès ou mache, ou lage kò ou nan mechanste. Ou fè peche. Se konsa mwen mete ou deyò sou mòn ki apa pou mwen an. Ou pa t' bon pou sèvis mwen ankò. Zanj mwen te chwazi pou pwoteje ou la mete ou deyò nan mitan boul dife yo.
17 Your heart grew proud of your beauty; you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor; so I cast you to the earth; I made you a spectacle before kings.
Ou te wè jan ou te bèl, sa fè ou pèdi tèt ou. Paske ou te rive nan yon bèl pozisyon, ou tanmen aji tankou moun fou. Se poutèt sa mwen voye ou jete atè. Mwen kite ou la devan lòt wa yo pou yo wè sa ki rive ou.
18 By the multitude of your iniquities and the dishonesty of your trading you have profaned your sanctuaries. So I made fire come from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the eyes of all who saw you.
Ou sitèlman fè mechanste ak vis nan kòmès ou yo, ou pa respekte ata tanp ou yo. Mwen mete dife nan lavil ou yo. Yo boule nèt. Tout moun ki t'ap gade ou yo wè ou tounen sann.
19 All the nations who know you are appalled over you. You have come to a horrible end and will be no more.’”
Tout moun ki te konnen ou nan lòt peyi yo sezi, yo pè pou sa ki rive ou la pa rive yo tou. Ou fini, ou fini nèt.
20 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
21 “Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.
-Nonm o! Vire tèt ou gade nan direksyon lavil Sidon an. Denonse sa moun sa yo ap fè.
22 And you are to declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against you, O Sidon, and I will be glorified within you. They will know that I am the LORD when I execute judgments against her and demonstrate My holiness through her.
W'a di yo men mesaj Seyè sèl Mèt la voye ba yo: Nou menm, moun lavil Sidon, n'ap leve dèyè nou tou. Apre sa mwen pral fè nou an, moun pral fè lwanj mwen, y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a, paske mwen pral pini moun ki rete nan lavil la. Konsa, m'a fè moun wè se yon Bondye apa mwen ye.
23 I will send a plague against her and shed blood in her streets; the slain will fall within her, while the sword is against her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
Mwen pral voye maladi sou yo. San moun pral koule nan tout lari. Lènmi ap soti toupatou vin atake yo. Moun pral mouri nan lavil la. Lè sa a, y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
24 For the people of Israel will no longer face a pricking brier or a painful thorn from all around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.’
Seyè a di ankò: -Pèp Izrayèl la ap viv nan mitan yon bann nasyon ki pa vle wè l'. Yo tankou pikan raje k'ap grafiyen l', men yo pral sispann giyonnen l'. Lè sa a, tout moun va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a, sèl Mèt la.
25 This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they have been scattered, I will show Myself holy among them in the sight of the nations. Then they will dwell in their own land, which I have given to My servant Jacob.
Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: -Mwen pral ranmase moun pèp Izrayèl yo nan mitan tout nasyon kote m' te gaye yo a, m'ap mennen yo tounen. Konsa, mwen pral fè tout nasyon yo wè se yon Bondye apa mwen ye. Moun pèp Izrayèl yo va rete nan peyi mwen te bay Jakòb, sèvitè m' lan.
26 And there they will dwell securely, build houses, and plant vineyards. They will dwell securely when I execute judgments against all those around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God.’”
Yo pral viv nan peyi a san danje, san malè. Yo pral bati kay, y'ap plante jaden rezen. M'ap pini tout nasyon ki rete toupre yo epi ki pa vle wè yo. Pèp Izrayèl la menm ap viv san danje, san malè. Lè sa a, y'a konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki Bondye yo a.
