< Ezekiel 9 >
1 Then I heard Him call out in a loud voice, saying, “Draw near, O executioners of the city, each with a weapon of destruction in hand.”
Answit, Li te kriye fò pou m tande ak yon gwo vwa e te di: “Vin pi pre, O nou menm ki an chaj vil la, chak moun ak pwòp zam destriksyon li nan men l.”
2 And I saw six men coming from the direction of the Upper Gate, which faces north, each with a weapon of slaughter in his hand. With them was another man clothed in linen who had a writing kit at his side. And they came in and stood beside the bronze altar.
Gade byen, sis moun te sòti nan pòtay anlè ki pozisyone vè nò a, chak moun ak pwòp zam masak li nan men l. Pami yo, te gen yon sèten nonm abiye an len, ak yon valiz pou ekri nan senti l. Epi yo te antre ladann e te kanpe akote lotèl an bwonz lan.
3 Then the glory of the God of Israel rose from above the cherubim, where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. And He called to the man clothed in linen who had the writing kit at his side.
Konsa, laglwa Bondye Israël la te leve monte soti nan cheriben kote l te poze a, pou rive nan papòt tanp lan. Epi Li te rele nonm abiye an len ak yon valiz pou ekri nan senti li an.
4 “Go throughout the city of Jerusalem,” said the LORD, “and put a mark on the foreheads of the men sighing and groaning over all the abominations committed there.”
SENYÈ a te di li: “Ale pase nan mitan vil la, menm nan mitan Jérusalem, mete yon mak sou fwon a mesye ki plenn nan gòj e ki fè soupi pou tout abominasyon k ap komèt nan mitan li yo.”
5 And as I listened, He said to the others, “Follow him through the city and start killing; do not show pity or spare anyone!
Men pou lòt yo, Li te di nan zòrèy mwen: “Travèse vil la dèyè li pou frape. Pa kite zye ou fè pitye, ni pa ralanti.
6 Slaughter the old men, the young men and maidens, the women and children; but do not go near anyone who has the mark. Now begin at My sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were before the temple.
Konplètman, touye granmoun, jenn gason, jenn fi, timoun yo ak fanm, men pa touche okenn moun ki gen mak la. Kòmanse soti nan sanktyè pa M nan.” Konsa, yo te kòmanse ak ansyen ki te devan tanp yo.
7 Then He told them, “Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go forth!” So they went out and began killing throughout the city.
Epi Li te di yo: “Souye tanp lan e plen lakou a ak mò yo. Ale deyò!” Konsa, yo te ale deyò pou te frape moun nan vil yo.
8 While they were killing, I was left alone. And I fell facedown and cried out, “Oh, Lord GOD, when You pour out Your wrath on Jerusalem, will You destroy the entire remnant of Israel?”
Pandan yo t ap frape moun yo e mwen sèl te rete, mwen te tonbe sou figi mwen, mwen te kriye fò pou te di: “Anmwey, Senyè BONDYE! Èske W ap detwi tout retay Israël la pandan W ap vide gwo kòlè ou sou Jérusalem nan?”
9 He replied, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great. The land is full of bloodshed, and the city is full of perversity. For they say, ‘The LORD has forsaken the land; the LORD does not see.’
Li te reponn mwen: “Inikite lakay Israël ak Juda yo vin trè trè gran. Peyi a vin plen ak san, e vil la plen ak pèvèsyon. Paske yo di: ‘SENYÈ a te abandone tout peyi a e SENYÈ a pa wè!’
10 But as for Me, I will not look on them with pity, nor will I spare them. I will bring their deeds down upon their own heads.”
Men pou Mwen, zye M p ap gen pitye ni Mwen p ap ralanti, men Mwen va fè kondwit yo vin rive sou pwòp tèt yo.”
11 Then the man clothed in linen with the writing kit at his side reported back, “I have done as You commanded.”
Epi gade byen, nonm abiye an len, ki te gen valiz ekri nan senti li jan nou te di a, t ap di: “Mwen te fè l jis jan ou te kòmande mwen an.”
