< Ezekiel 30 >
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 prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Howl ye, Woe, woe to the day:
“Fis a lòm, pwofetize e di: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a, “Rele ‘Anmwey! Elas pou jou a!’
3 For the day is near, yea the day of the Lord is near: a cloudy day, it shall be the time of the nations.
Paske jou a pwòch. Menm jou SENYÈ a pwòch. Li va yon jou nwaj, yon tan fènwa pou nasyon yo.
4 And the sword shall come upon Egypt: and there shall be dread in Ethiopia, when the wounded shall fall in Egypt, and the multitude thereof shall be taken away, and the foundations thereof shall be destroyed.
Yon nepe va rive sou Égypte e gwo doulè va rive Ethiopie, lè sila yo touye yo tonbe an Égypte. Yo va retire tout richès li yo e fondasyon li yo va fin demoli nèt.
5 Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the rest of the crowd, and Chub, and the children of the land of the covenant, shall fall with them by the sword.
“‘“Ethiopie, Puth, Lud, tout Arabie, Cub, ak tout moun peyi ki nan gwoup aliyans yo va tonbe ak yo pa nepe.”
6 Thus saith the Lord God: They also that uphold Egypt shall fall, and the pride of her empire shall be brought down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord the God of hosts.
“‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Anverite, sila ki sipòte Égypte yo va tonbe. Ògèy a pouvwa li a va tonbe. Soti nan Migdol jis rive Syène, yo va tonbe pa nepe,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
7 And they shall be desolate in the midst of the lands that are desolate, and the cities thereof shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
Yo va vin dezole nan mitan peyi ki dezole yo. Konsa, vil li yo va nan mitan vil k ap devaste yo.
8 And they shall know that I am the Lord: when I shall have set a fire in Egypt, and all the helpers thereof shall be destroyed.
Yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè M limen dife an Égypte la, e tout sila ki te ede l yo vin kraze nèt.
9 In that day shall messengers go forth from my face in ships to destroy the confidence of Ethiopia, and there shall be dread among them in the day of Egypt: because it shall certainly come.
“‘“Nan jou sa a, mesaje yo va ale soti devan Mwen sou bato pou entimide Ethiopie akoz lenpridans. Gwo doulè va vin sou yo menm jan ak jou Égypte la; paske gade byen, l ap vini!”
10 Thus saith the Lord God: I will make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon.
“‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Anplis Mwen va fè gwo foul lame Égypte la vin sispann pa men Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan.
11 He and his people with him, the strongest of nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords upon Egypt: and shall fill the land with the slain.
Li menm ak pèp li a avè l, pi mechan pami nasyon yo va antre pou detwi peyi a. Yo va rale nepe yo kont Égypte, e plen peyi a ak mò yo.
12 And I will make the channels of the rivers dry, and will deliver the land into the hand of the wicked: and will lay waste the land and all that is therein by the hands of strangers, I the Lord have spoken it.
Anplis, Mwen va seche kanal larivyè Nil yo, e vann peyi a pou antre nan men moun mechan yo. Mwen va fè peyi a vin dezole ak tout sa ki ladann pa men etranje yo. Mwen, SENYÈ a, fin pale.”
13 Thus saith the Lord God: I will also destroy the idols, and I will make an end of the idols of Memphis: and there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt: and I will cause a terror in the land of Egypt.
“‘Konsa pale Senyè Bondye a: “Anplis, Mwen va detwi zidòl yo, e fè imaj yo sispann nan Noph. P ap gen prens ankò nan peyi Égypte. Mwen va mete laperèz nan peyi Égypte.
14 And I will destroy the land of Phatures, and will make a fire in Taphnis, and will execute judgments in Alexandria.
Mwen va fè Pathros vin dezole, mete dife nan Tsoan, e egzekite jijman sou Nò.
15 And I will pour out my indignation upon Pelusium the strength of Egypt, and will cut off the multitude of Alexandria.
Mwen va vide chalè kòlè Mwen sou Sin, sitadèl a Égypte la. Anplis, Mwen va koupe retire nèt gwo foul Nò yo.
16 And I will make a fire in Egypt: Pelusium shall be in pain like a woman in labour, and Alexandria shall be laid waste, and in Memphis there shall be daily distresses.
Mwen va mete dife an Égypte. Sin va vin tòde ak gwo doulè. No va kraze an mòso, separe. Noph va gen brèch nèt ak gwo twoub chak jou.
17 The young men of Heliopolis, and of Bubastus shall fall by the sword, and they themselves shall go into captivity.
Jenn mesye a On ak Pi Béseth yo va tonbe pa nepe. Y ap antre an kaptivite.
18 And in Taphnis the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the sceptres of Egypt, and the pride of her power shall cease in her: a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall be led into captivity.
Nan Tachpanès, jounen an va vin fènwa, lè M kraze jouk an fè Égypte la. Nan lè sa a, ògèy pouvwa li va sispann nan li. Yon nwaj va kouvri li, e fi li yo va antre an kaptivite.
19 And I will execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Konsa Mwen va egzekite jijman sou Égypte. Konsa, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”’”
20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Nan onzyèm ane, nan premye mwa, nan setyèm jou nan mwa a, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
21 Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharao king of Egypt: and behold it is not bound up, to be healed, to be tied up with clothes, and swathed with linen, that it might recover strength, and hold the sword.
“Fis a lòm, Mwen te kase bra Farawon an, wa Égypte la. Gade byen, li pa t velope ak pansman pou l ta geri, ni ak bandaj pou l ta ka vin gen fòs pou kenbe nepe.
22 Therefore, thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I come against Pharao king of Egypt, and I will break into pieces his strong arm, which is already broken: and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand:
Konsa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Gade byen, Mwen kont Farawon, wa Égypte la, e Mwen va kase bra li, ni sa ki gen fòs la ni sa ki kase deja a. Epi Mwen va fè nepe a tonbe kite men li.
23 And I will disperse Egypt among the nations, and scatter them through the countries.
Mwen va gaye Ejipsyen yo pami nasyon yo e dispèse yo pami peyi yo.
24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and will put my sword in his hand: and I will break the arms of Pharao, and they shall groan bitterly being slain before his face.
Paske Mwen va ranfòse men a wa Babylone nan, e mete nepe Mwen nan men l. Men Mwen va kase bra a Farawon, pou li ka vin plenyen nan gòj devan wa Babylone nan, ak plent a yon nonm ki blese jis a lamò.
25 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharao shall fall: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have given my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall have stretched it forth upon the land of Egypt.
Konsa, Mwen va ranfòse bra a wa Babylone nan, men bra a Farawon yo va tonbe. Nan lè sa a, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè M mete nepe M nan men a wa Babylone nan, e lè li lonje li kont peyi Égypte la.
26 And I will disperse Egypt among the nations, and will scatter them through the countries, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Lè Mwen gaye Ejipsyen yo pami nasyon yo, e dispèse yo pami peyi yo, alò, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.’”
