< Ezekiel 35 >
1 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
2 “Son of man, face towards Mount Seir and prophesy against it
-Nonm o! Vire tèt ou gade nan direksyon mòn Seyi, bay moun Edon yo mesaj mwen ba ou pou yo a.
3 Announce that this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, because I'm condemning you, Mount Seir. I'm going to attack you and turn you into a wasteland.
W'a di yo men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di nou: Nou menm moun peyi Seyi, m'ap leve dèyè nou tou! Mwen pral lonje men m' sou nou pou m' pini nou. M'ap fè peyi a tounen yon dezè san pesonn ladan l'.
4 I will ruin your towns; you will be completely devastated. Then you will acknowledge that I am the Lord.
M'ap fè tout lavil nou yo tounen mazi. M'ap fè peyi a rete san pesonn ladan l'. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
5 Because of your lasting hatred for the Israelites you let them be attacked with swords as they went through terrible disasters when the time of their punishment was coming to an end.
Nou pa janm sispann rayi moun Izrayèl yo. Lè malè lagè tonbe sou yo, lè yo t'ap resevwa dènye chatiman pou peche yo a, nou lage yo nan men lènmi yo.
6 So as I live, declares the Lord God, I will let you be violently attacked and chased down. Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will come after you.
Se poutèt sa, jan nou konnen mwen vivan vre a, se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap pale: m'ap fè nou benyen nan dlo kò nou, nou p'ap ka chape. Wi, nou te mete san yo deyò, san an gen pou pousib nou.
7 I will turn Mount Seir into a ruined wasteland. I will wipe out anyone who leaves or who tries to return.
M'ap fè mòn Seyi yo, peyi Edon an, tounen yon dezè kote moun pa rete. M'ap touye dènye moun k'ap ale vini nan peyi nou an.
8 I will fill its mountains with the dead. Those killed by the sword will fall in your hills, valleys, and all your ravines.
Mwen pral kouvri mòn nou yo ak kadav. Ti mòn nou yo, fon nou yo ak ravin nou yo pral kouvri ak kadav moun yo touye nan lagè.
9 I will ruin you forever. Your towns will not be inhabited again. Then you will acknowledge that I am the Lord.
M'ap fè peyi nou an tounen dezè pou toutan. p'ap gen yon moun nan lavil nou yo. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
10 Because you said, ‘These two nations and their lands belong to us, and we will take them over, even though the Lord was there with them,’
Nou te di konsa ni nasyon Izrayèl la, ni nasyon Jida a ansanm ak tout peyi yo a, se pou nou yo ye, nou pral pran yo pou nou, malgre se mwen menm ki te Bondye yo a.
11 then as I live, declares the Lord God, I will deal with you in the same way that you showed anger and jealousy to them in your hatred of them. They will realize that I'm punishing you because of the way you treated them.
Enben! Jan nou konnen mwen vivan vre a, se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap pale: Jan nou te move sou yo! Jan nou te rayi sò yo! Jan nou pa t' vle wè yo! M'ap fè nou peye pou tou sa. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm k'ap pini nou pou tou sa nou te fè yo.
12 You will also realize that I, the Lord, heard all the nasty things you said about the mountainous land of Israel when you announced, ‘The mountains have been left empty; they're ours to take!’
Wi, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a, mwen te tande jan nou t'ap pase mòn peyi Izrayèl yo nan betiz, lè n'ap plede di: Yo tounen yon dezè, yo ban nou yo pou n' ka devore yo.
13 You made a lot of boasts attacking me—you had much to say against me. I heard it for myself!
Mwen te tande ak zòrèy mwen jan nou te derespekte m', jan nou pa t' manke pale m' mal.
14 This is what the Lord God says: I will destroy you as everyone else in the world celebrates.
Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: -Tout moun sou latè pral kontan lè m'a fè peyi nou an tounen yon dezè
15 Just as you celebrated when Israel was destroyed, I will do the same to you. Mount Seir, you will become a wasteland, and so will the rest of Edom. Then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.”
menm jan nou te kontan wè peyi moun Izrayèl yo, peyi moun ki rele m' pa m' yo, tounen yon dezè. Tout mòn Seyi yo, wi, tout peyi Edon an, pral tounen dezè. Lè sa a, tout moun va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
