Ezekiel 28
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote M ankò e te di:
2 “Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre: Thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, ‘I am God, and I sit in the chair of God, in the heart of the sea,’ though you are a man, and not God, and because you have presented your heart as if it were the heart of God:
“Fis a lòm, pale ak chèf Tyr la: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a, “Akoz kè ou vin leve, e ou te di: ‘Mwen se yon dye, Mwen chita sou chèz Bondye, nan kè lanmè yo’; malgre, ou se yon nonm e ou pa yon dye; sepandan, ou ta fè kè ou tankou kè Bondye—
3 Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is concealed from you.
gade byen, ou pi saj ke Daniel. Nanpwen sekrè ki twò difisil pou ou.
4 By your wisdom and prudence, you have made yourself strong, and you have acquired gold and silver for your storehouses.
Ak sajès ou ak bon konprann ou, ou te vin genyen richès pou tèt ou, e ou te vin gen lò ak ajan pou kès trezò ou yo.
5 By the multitude of your wisdom, and by your business dealings, you have multiplied strength for yourself. And your heart has been exalted by your strength.
Ak gwo sajès ou, ak komès ou, ou te vin ogmante richès ou e kè ou vin leve akoz richès ou yo—”
6 Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted as if it were the heart of God,
“‘Akoz sa, konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Akoz ou te fè kè ou tankou kè Bondye,
7 for this reason, behold, I will lead over you foreigners, the most robust among the Gentiles. And they will bare their swords over the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your beauty.
akoz sa, gade byen, Mwen va mennen etranje yo sou ou, sila ki pi sovaj pami nasyon yo. Konsa, yo va rale nepe yo kont bèlte a sajès ou, e yo va souye gwo bèlte ou a.
8 They will destroy you and pull you down. And you will die the death of those slain in the heart of the sea.
Yo va mennen ou desann nan twou fòs la, e ou va mouri lanmò a sila ki touye nan kè lanmè yo.
9 So then, will you speak, in the presence of those who are destroying you, before the hand of those who are killing you, saying, ‘I am God,’ though you are a man, and not God?
Èske ou va di: ‘Mwen se yon dye’, nan prezans a sila ki te touye ou a? Donk, ou se yon nonm e ou pa Bondye, nan men a sila ki blese ou yo.
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hand of foreigners. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.”
Ou va mouri lanmò a ensikonsi yo, nan men etranje yo, paske Mwen te pale,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a!’”
11 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: “Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre,
Ankò pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
12 and you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord God: You were the seal of similitudes, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
“Fis a lòm, reprann lamantasyon sou wa Tyr la e di l: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Ou te genyen so pèfeksyon an, plen sajès e pafè an bèlte.
13 You were with the delights of the Paradise of God. Every precious stone was your covering: sardius, topaz, and jasper, chrysolite, and onyx, and beryl, sapphire, and garnet, and emerald. The work of your beauty was of gold, and your fissures were ready in the day when you were formed.
Ou te nan Éden, jaden Bondye a. Tout pyè presye yo te sèvi pou kouvri ou: Ribi, topaz, dyaman; krizolit, oniks, ak jasp, Safi, malachi, emwòd, epi lò. Baz kalite travay pou tout prezantasyon te nan ou. Nan jou ou te kreye a, yo te prepare.
14 You were a cherub, stretched out and protecting, and I stationed you on the holy mountain of God. You have walked in the midst of stones containing fire.
Ou te cheriben onksyone ki kouvri a e Mwen te plase ou la. Ou te sou mòn sen Bondye a. Ou te mache nan mitan a pyè dife yo.
15 You were perfect in your ways, from the day of your formation, until iniquity was found in you.
Ou te san fot nan tout chemen ou yo depi jou ou te kreye a, jis rive nan lè inikite te vin twouve nan ou a.
16 By the multitude of your business dealings, your interior was filled with iniquity, and you sinned. And I cast you away from the mountain of God, and I perished you, O protecting cherub, from the midst of the stones containing fire.
Akoz gwo fòs kantite komès ou a, ou te vin ranpli anndan ou ak vyolans e ou te peche. Akoz sa, Mwen te jete ou kon pwofane sòti nan mòn Bondye a. Mwen te detwi ou, O cheriben ki kouvri a, soti nan mitan wòch dife a.
17 And your heart was exalted by your beauty; you have destroyed your own wisdom by your beauty. I have cast you to the ground. I have presented you before the face of kings, so that they may examine you.
Kè ou te vin leve wo akoz bèlte ou. Ou te fè sajès ou vin konwonpi akoz gwo bèlte ou a. Mwen te jete ou atè. Mwen te mete ou devan wa yo pou yo wè ou.
18 You have defiled your sanctuaries, by the multitude of your iniquities and by the iniquity of your business dealings. Therefore, I will produce a fire from your midst, which will consume you, and I will make you into ashes upon the earth, in the sight of all who are watching you.
Akoz gwo fòs kantite inikite ou yo, nan enjistis de komès ou a, ou te pwofane sanktyè ou yo. Akoz sa, Mwen te mennen dife soti nan mitan ou. Li fin manje ou nèt. Mwen te fè ou vin tounen sann sou tè a devan zye a tout moun ki wè ou yo.
19 All who gaze upon you among the Gentiles will be stupefied over you. You were made out of nothing, and you shall not be, forever.”
Tout moun ki rekonèt ou pami pèp yo vin etone jiskaske yo vin sezi de ou. Ou te vin yon gwo etonman laperèz, e ou va sispann egziste jis pou tout tan.”’”
20 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di:
21 “Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and you shall prophesy about it.
“Fis a lòm, mete figi ou vè Sidon. Pwofetize kont li,
22 And you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Sidon, and I will be glorified in your midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have executed judgments in her, and when I will have been sanctified in her.
epi di: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen kont ou, O Sidon, e Mwen va vin glorifye nan mitan ou. Nan lè sa a, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè Mwen egzekite jijman ladann li, e nan li, Mwen vin sen.
23 And I will send a pestilence upon her, and there will be blood in her streets. And they will fall, slain by the sword, on every side in her midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
Paske Mwen va voye epidemi ak bèt pou ravaje chan l. San ap koule nan ri li yo. Sila ki blese yo va tonbe nan mitan li, e nepe va antoure l tout kote. Konsa, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.
24 And the house of Israel will no longer be a stumbling block of bitterness, nor a thorn bringing pain everywhere around them, to those who turn against them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”
“‘“P ap gen pou lakay Israël ankò rakbwa pikan ni yon grenn pikan plen doulè k ap sòti nan sila ki te moke yo. Epi yo va konnen ke Mwen se Senyè BONDYE a.”
25 Thus says the Lord God: “When I will have gathered together the house of Israel, from the peoples among whom they have been dispersed, I shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the Gentiles. And they shall live in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
“‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Lè M rasanble lakay Israël soti nan pèp kote yo gaye yo, e fè sentete Mwen vin parèt nan yo devan zye a tout nasyon yo, nan lè sa a, yo va viv nan peyi ke M te bay a sèvitè Mwen an, Jacob.
26 And they shall live within it securely. And they shall build houses and plant vineyards. And they shall live in confidence, when I will have executed judgments upon all those who turn against them on every side. And they shall know that I am the Lord their God.”
Yo va viv an sekirite ladann. Wi, yo va bati kay, plante chan rezen e viv ansekirite lè Mwen egzekite jijman sou tout sila ki moke de yo. Epi yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye yo a.”’”
