< Ezekiel 4 >
1 And you, son of man, take a back and put it before you and on it make a picture of a town, even Jerusalem.
Bondye di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Pran yon brik, mete l' devan ou. Trase desen lavil Jerizalèm sou li.
2 And make an attack on it, shutting it in, building strong places against it, and making high an earthwork against it; and put up tents against it, placing engines all round it for smashing down its walls.
Apre sa, w'a moutre jan lènmi pral sènen lavil la: W'a fouye yon kannal pou sòlda yo kache, w'a mete ranblè nan pye miray li yo, w'a mete anplasman kan sòlda yo, w'a mete gwo poto pou defonse pòtay yo sou tout bò lavil la.
3 And take a flat iron plate, and put it for a wall of iron between you and the town: and let your face be turned to it, and it will be shut in and you will make an attack on it. This will be a sign to the children of Israel.
Pran yon pwelon fè, mete l' kanpe tankou yon miray ant ou menm ak lavil la. Bay lavil la fas. Lavil la sènen toupatou. Se ou menm ki sènen l'. Se va yon siy pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
4 Then, stretching yourself out on your left side, take the sin of the children of Israel on yourself: for as long as you are stretched out, so long will the sin of the children of Israel be on you.
Lèfini, kouche sou bò gòch ou. W'a pran tout peche moun pèp Izrayèl yo sou ou. Ou rete kouche konsa pandan tout tan w'ap pote chay peche yo a.
5 For I have had the years of their sin measured for you by a number of days, even three hundred and ninety days: and you will take on yourself the sin of the children of Israel.
Mwen deside pou yo pase twasankadrevendizan (390) ap peye pou peche yo. Konsa, m'ap fè ou pase twasankatrevendi (390) jou ap pote chay peche moun peyi Izrayèl yo, yon jou pou chak lanne.
6 And when these days are ended, turning on your right side, you are to take on yourself the sin of the children of Judah: forty days, a day for a year, I have had it fixed for you.
Apre sa, w'a vire kouche sou bò dwat ou. W'a pote chay peche moun peyi Jida yo pandan karant jou, yon jou pou chak lanne chatiman yo.
7 And let your face be turned to where Jerusalem is shut in, with your arm uncovered, and be a prophet against it.
Vire tèt ou, gade lavil Jerizalèm yo sènen an. Lonje dwèt ou sou li. Di sa ki pral rive l'.
8 And see, I will put bands on you; and you will be stretched out without turning from one side to the other till the days of your attack are ended.
M'ap mare ou byen mare, konsa ou p'ap ka vire chanje bò toutotan tout jou pou yo sènen lavil la poko fin pase.
9 And take for yourself wheat and barley and different sorts of grain, and put them in one vessel and make bread for yourself from them; all the days when you are stretched on your side it will be your food.
Bon, koulye a ou pral pran ble, lòj, gwo pwa, ti pwa, pitimi ak ble mòn, w'a mete yo ansanm nan yon sèl veso. W'a fè pen ak yo. Pandan tout twasankatrevendi (390) jou w'ap pase kouche sou bò gòch ou a, se sa ase w'a manje.
10 And you are to take your food by weight, twenty shekels a day: you are to take it at regular times.
W'a pran yon moso pen ki peze yon demi (1/2) liv pou ou manje chak jou. Se sa ase pou ou manje chak jou.
11 And you are to take water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: you are to take it at regular times.
Ou p'ap gen anpil dlo pou ou bwè. W'a pran yon lit dlo konsa chak jou.
12 And let your food be barley cakes, cooking it before their eyes with the waste which comes out of a man.
W'a pran okabennen moun, w'a fè dife pou kwit pen pou ou manje a devan tout moun.
13 And the Lord said, Even so the children of Israel will have unclean bread for their food among the nations where I am driving them.
Seyè a te di ankò: -Se konsa moun pèp Izrayèl yo pral manje manje lalwa defann yo manje, lè m'a gaye yo nan mitan lòt nasyon yo.
14 Then I said, Ah, Lord! see, my soul has never been unclean, and I have never taken as my food anything which has come to a natural death or has been broken by beasts, from the time when I was young even till now; no disgusting flesh has ever come into my mouth.
Lè sa a, mwen di: -O non! Seyè, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, mwen pa janm manje manje ou defann moun manje. Depi m' piti, mwen pa janm manje vyann bèt ki mouri toufe, ni vyann bèt lòt bèt touye. Non, mwen pa janm mete nan bouch mwen vyann ou defann moun manje!
15 Then he said to me, See, I have given you cow's waste in place of man's waste, and you will make your bread ready on it.
Lè sa a, Bondye di m' konsa: -Dakò. M'ap kite ou pran kaka bèf pito pase okabennen moun. Ou mèt fè dife avè l' pou kwit pen ou lan.
16 And he said to me, Son of man, see, I will take away from Jerusalem her necessary bread: they will take their bread by weight and with care, measuring out their drinking-water with fear and wonder:
Epi li di ankò: -Nonm o! Mwen pral koupe viv moun lavil Jerizalèm yo. Moun yo pral gen kè sere, yo pral gen kè sote lè yo pral kontwole kantite pen pou yo manje ak kantite dlo pou yo bwè.
17 So that they may be in need of bread and water and be wondering at one another, wasting away in their sin.
Yo p'ap jwenn kantite pen ak dlo yo bezwen: yo tout y'ap depafini ansanm, y'ap deperi poutèt peche yo fè yo.
