< Ezekiel 8 >
1 And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth [month], on the fifth of the month, that [as] I sat in my house, and the elders of Judah sat before me, the hand of the Lord Jehovah fell there upon me.
Li te vin rive nan sizyèm ane, sou senkyèm jou, nan sizyèm mwa a, pandan mwen te chita lakay mwen ak ansyen a Juda yo ki te chita devan m, ke men Senyè BONDYE a te tonbe sou mwen la.
2 And I looked, and behold, a likeness as the appearance of fire; from the appearance of his loins and downward, fire; and from his loins and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the look of glowing brass.
Answit, mwen te gade e vwala, yon imaj kon aparans a yon nonm—soti nan ren li pou rive anba, te gen aparans dife e soti nan ren li pou monte, aparans yon bagay briyan tankou metal k ap klere.
3 And he stretched forth the form of a hand, and took me by a lock of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heavens, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the entry of the inner gate that looketh toward the north, where was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provoketh to jealousy.
Li te lonje yon bagay sanblab ak yon men, e li te kenbe m nan cheve m nan pati dèyè tèt mwen. Konsa, Lespri a te leve m monte rive antre tè a ak syèl la, e li te mennen mwen nan vizyon Bondye yo pou rive Jérusalem nan antre kote nò nan pòtay pa anndan an, kote ki te gen chèz pou zidòl ki rele jalouzi a, ki konn pwovoke jalouzi a.
4 And behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the appearance that I saw in the valley.
Gade byen, glwa Bondye Israël la te la, tankou aparans ke m te wè nan plèn nan.
5 And he said unto me, Son of man, lift up now thine eyes toward the north. And I lifted up mine eyes toward the north, and behold, northward of the gate of the altar, this image of jealousy in the entry.
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, leve zye ou koulye a vè nò.” Konsa, mwen te leve zye m vè nò, e gade byen, nan nò a pòtay lotèl, se te zidòl jalouzi a ki te nan antre a.
6 And he said unto me, Son of man, seest thou what they do? the great abominations that the house of Israel commit here, to cause [me] to go far off from my sanctuary? And yet again thou shalt see great abominations.
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, èske ou wè ki sa y ap fè, gwo abominasyon ke lakay Israël ap fè isit la, pou m ta kite sanktyè Mwen an? Malgre toujou, ou va wè abominasyon ki pi gwo.”
7 And he brought me to the entry of the court, and I looked, and behold, a hole in the wall.
Li te mennen m nan antre lakou enteryè a, e lè m te gade, vwala, yon twou nan mi an.
8 And he said unto me, Son of man, dig now through the wall; and I digged through the wall, and behold, a door.
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, fouye yon twou fonse antre nan mi an.” Konsa, mwen te fouye yon twou fonse antre nan mi an e vwala, yon pòt pou antre.
9 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.
Li te di mwen: “Antre ladann pou wè abominasyon mechan ke y ap komèt isit la.”
10 And I went in and looked, and behold, every form of creeping thing and abominable beast, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon the wall round about.
Konsa, mwen te antre e vwala, tout fòm bagay ki trennen atè, bèt ak bagay abominab, ak tout zidòl lakay Israël yo te grave kon desen sou mi an toutotou li.
11 And there stood before them seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and in the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan, with every man his censer in his hand; and a thick cloud of incense went up.
Epi te kanpe devan yo, swasann-dis lansyen a lakay Israël yo, e Jaazania, fis a Schaphan an, te kanpe nan mitan yo, chak moun ak pwòp veso lansan li, e odè nwaj lansan an a t ap leve.
12 And he said unto me, Hast thou seen, son of man, what the elders of the house of Israel do in the dark, every one in his chambers of imagery? for they say, Jehovah seeth us not; Jehovah hath forsaken the land.
Epi Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, èske ou wè sa ke ansyen lakay Israël yo ap komèt nan fènwa a, chak moun nan chanm a pwòp imaj taye li? Paske men ki sa y ap di: ‘SENYÈ a pa wè nou. SENYÈ a fin abandone peyi a.’”
13 And he said unto me, Yet again thou shalt see great abominations which they do.
Epi Li te di mwen: “Malgre sa, ou va wè abominasyon ki pi gwo ke y ap komèt.”
14 And he brought me to the entry of the gate of Jehovah's house that was toward the north; and behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.
Konsa, Li te mennen mwen nan antre a pòtay lakay SENYÈ a ki te vè nò; epi vwala, te gen fanm la ki t ap kriye pou Thammuz.
15 And he said unto me, Seest thou, son of man? Thou shalt yet again see greater abominations than these.
Li te di mwen: “Èske ou wè sa, fis a lòm? Malgre sa, ou va wè pi gwo abominasyon ke sa yo.”
16 And he brought me into the inner court of Jehovah's house, and behold, at the entry of the temple of Jehovah, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of Jehovah and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.
Konsa, Li te mennen mwen antre nan lakou enteryè lakay SENYÈ a. Epi vwala, nan antre tanp SENYÈ a, antre galri ak lotèl la, anviwon venn-senk òm, avèk do yo bay tanp SENYÈ a, e figi yo vè lès. Epi yo t ap pwostène yo nan lès vè solèy la.
17 And he said unto me, Seest thou, son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah to commit the abominations which they commit here, that they yet fill the land with violence, and keep provoking me afresh to anger? And behold, they put the branch to their nose.
Li te di mwen: “Èske ou wè sa, fis a lòm? Èske se yon bagay twò piti pou lakay Juda ta komèt abominasyon ke yo te komèt isit la? Paske yo te ranpli peyi a ak vyolans e te pwovoke M plizyè fwa? Gade byen, y ap vekse M menm ak ti branch bwa yo poze sou nen yo.
18 And I also will deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity; and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.
Akoz sa, anverite, Mwen va aji ak gwo kòlè. Zye m p ap gen pitye, ni Mwen p ap epanye pèsòn. Malgre yo kriye nan zòrèy Mwen ak gwo vwa, malgre sa, Mwen p ap koute yo.”
