Ezekiel 21
1 The word of ye Lord came to me againe, saying,
Konsa, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote Mwen. Li te di:
2 Sonne of man, set thy face toward Ierusalem, and drop thy word toward the holy places, and prophecie against the land of Israel.
“Fis a lòm, ranje figi ou vè Jérusalem. Pale kont sanktyè yo e pwofetize kont peyi Israël:
3 And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I come against thee, and will drawe my sword out of his sheath, and cut off from thee both the righteous and the wicked.
Di a peyi Israël la: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, Mwen vin kont nou. Mwen va rale nepe Mwen nan fouwo, e Mwen va koupe retire de nou moun dwat yo ak mechan yo.
4 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee both the righteous and wicked, therefore shall my sworde goe out of his sheath against all flesh from the South to the North,
Konsa, lè M ap koupe retire nèt de nou, moun dwat yo ansanm ak mechan yo, nan menm fwa, nepe M va rale soti nan fouwo li, kont tout chè soti nan sid jis rive nan nò.
5 That all flesh may knowe that I the Lord haue drawen my sworde out of his sheath, and it shall not returne any more.
Konsa, tout chè va konnen ke Mwen, SENYÈ a, te rale nepe Mwen sòti nan fouwo. Li p ap remete nan fouwo ankò.”’
6 Mourne therefore, thou sonne of man, as in the paine of thy reines, and mourne bitterly before them.
“Pou ou menm, fis a lòm, plenn fò nan gòj ou ak kè kase, ak doulè òrib. Plenn nan gòj devan zye yo, ak kè kase, byen amè.
7 And if they say vnto thee, Wherefore mournest thou? then answere, Because of the bruite: for it commeth, and euery heart shall melt, and all handes shall be weake, and all mindes shall faint, and all knees shall fall away as water: beholde, it commeth, and shall be done, saith the Lord God.
Konsa, lè yo mande ou, ‘Poukisa w ap plenn nan?’ ou va di: ‘Akoz nouvèl k ap vini an! Tout kè va fann, tout men va vin pèdi fòs, nanm a tout moun va vin fennen e tout jenou yo va vin fèb tankou dlo. Gade byen, sa ap vini e sa va fèt’, deklare Senyè BONDYE a.’”
8 Againe, the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Ankò, pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di:
9 Sonne of man, prophecie, and say, Thus saith the Lord God, say, A sworde, a sworde both sharpe, and fourbished.
“Fis a lòm, pwofetize e di: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Yon nepe! Yon nepe! Li file e anplis, klere!
10 It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter, and it is fourbished that it may glitter: how shall we reioyce? for it contemneth the rod of my sonne, as all other trees.
File pou fè yon masak, klere pou tire kon kout loray! Èske se konsa nou dwe fè kè kontan? Baton fis Mwen an, kondannen denyè pyebwa a.
11 And he hath giuen it to be fourbished, that he may handle it: this sword is sharpe, and is fourbished, that he may giue it into ye hand of the slayer.
Li fèt pou li ta poli, pou yo kab manyen li. Nepe a file e poli, pou plase nan men a sila k ap touye a.
12 Cry, and houle, sonne of man: for this shall come to my people, and it shall come vnto all the princes of Israel: the terrours of the sword shall be vpon my people: smite therefore vpon thy thigh.
Kriye fò e rele anmwey, fis a lòm; paske li kont pèp Mwen an, li kont tout prens Israël yo. Yo vin livre a nepe a avèk pèp Mwen an. Akoz sa, frape kwis ou.
13 For it is a triall, and what shall this be, if the sworde contemne euen the rodde? It shall be no more, saith the Lord God.
“Paske gen yon tribinal. Kisa pou di si menm baton ki kondanen an pa la ankò?” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
14 Thou therefore, sonne of man, prophecie, and smite hand to hand, and let the sworde be doubled: let the sworde that hath killed, returne the third time: it is the sword of the great slaughter entring into their priuie chambers.
“Pou sa, ou menm, fis a lòm, pwofetize e bat men ou ansanm. Kite nepe a vin double pou twazyèm fwa a, nepe pou tout sila ak blesi fatal yo. Se nepe pou gran la ki pote yon blesi fatal. Nan chanm yo l ap antre.
15 I haue brought the feare of the sword into all their gates to make their heart to faint, and to multiplie their ruines. Ah it is made bright, and it is dressed for the slaughter.
Pou kè yo ka fann, e anpil moun tonbe sou pòtay yo, Mwen te plase nepe klere a devan tout potay yo. Ah! Li fèt pou frape tankou loray; li byen pwenti ak lentansyon fè masak.
16 Get thee alone: goe to the right hande, or get thy selfe to the left hande, whithersoeuer thy face turneth.
Rasanble nou menm. Ale adwat! Pozisyone ou byen alinye! Ale agoch, nenpòt kote ou gade.
17 I wil also smite mine hands together, and wil cause my wrath to cease. I the Lord haue said it.
Anplis, Mwen va bat men M ansanm; Mwen va satisfè chalè kòlè Mwen. Mwen, SENYÈ a, Mwen te pale li.”
18 The worde of the Lord came vnto mee againe, saying,
Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
19 Also thou sonne of man, appoint thee two wayes, that the sworde of the King of Babel may come: both twaine shall come out of one lande, and chuse a place, and chuse it in the corner of the way of the citie.
“Pou ou menm, fis a lòm, fè de wout pou nepe wa Babylone nan kapab vini. Toulède va sòti nan yon sèl peyi. Epi fè yon endikasyon sou poto bwa. Fè l nan tèt wout pou antre nan vil la.
20 Appoint a way, that the sworde may come to Rabbath of the Ammonites, and to Iudah in Ierusalem the strong citie.
Ou va trase wout la pou nepe a vin rive nan Rabbath a fis a Ammon yo, e vè Juda, nan Jérusalem fòtifye a.
21 And the King of Babel stoode at the parting of the way, at the head of the two wayes, consulting by diuination, and made his arrowes bright: hee consulted with idoles, and looked in the liuer.
Paske wa Babylone nan te kanpe nan kote wout yo divize a, nan tèt a de wout yo, pou fè sèvis divinò. Li te souke flèch yo, li konsilte zidòl lakay yo, li egzamine fwa a.
22 At his right hand was the diuination for Ierusalem to appoint captaines, to open their mouth in the slaughter, and to lift vp their voyce with shouting, to laye engines of warre against the gates, to cast a mount, and to builde a fortresse.
Sou men dwat li, oso a an te parèt; ‘Jérusalem,’ pou monte ak gwo moso bwa long pou kraze pòtay yo, pou ouvri bouch pou masak la, pou leve vwa gwo kri batay la, pou mete gwo bout bwa long yo kont pòtay yo, pou monte ran syèj yo, pou bati yon miray syèj.
23 And it shalbe vnto them as a false diuination in their sight for the othes made vnto them: but hee will call to remembrance their iniquitie, to the intent they should be taken.
Epi sa va pou yo kon yon fo divinasyon nan zye yo. Yo te fè sèman solanèl, men li mennen inikite nan memwa yo, pou yo ka vin sezi yo.
24 Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Because ye haue made your iniquitie to bee remembred, in discouering your rebellion, that in al your workes your sinnes might appeare: because, I say, that ye are come to remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand.
“Akoz sa”, pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Akoz nou te mennen inikite nan memwa nou, nan sa, transgresyon nou yo vin dekouvri nèt. Konsa, pou tout zak nou yo, peche nou vin parèt—akoz nou vin sonje yo, men lan va vin sezi nou.
25 And thou prince of Israel polluted, and wicked, whose day is come, when iniquitie shall haue an ende,
“‘Epi ou menm, O nonm mechan an ak blesi fatal la, prens Israël la, ou menm ak jou ki rive a, nan moman pinisyon final lan.
26 Thus saith the Lord God, I will take away the diademe, and take off the crowne: this shalbe no more the same: I wil exalt the humble, and will abase him that is hie.
Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Retire mouchwa sou tèt ou a, e retire kouwòn nan. Sa p ap menm ankò. Leve sa ki ba e bese sa ki wo.
27 I wil ouerturne, ouerturne, ouerturne it, and it shall be no more vntill he come, whose right it is, and I will giue it him.
Mwen va boulvèse, boulvèse, boulvèse tout sa a. Sa tou p ap genyen li ankò jiskaske Sila ki gen dwa a, vini, e Mwen va bay li a Li menm.”’
28 And thou, sonne of man, prophecie, and say, Thus saith the Lord God to the children of Ammon, and to their blasphemie: say thou, I say, The sword, the sword is drawen foorth, and fourbished to the slaughter, to consume, because of the glittering:
“Ou menm, fis a lòm, pwofetize e di: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a konsènan fis a Ammon yo e konsènan ‘repwòch’ yo: “Yon nepe, yon nepe fin rale! Li klere pou masak la, pou fè l konsonmen nèt, pou li kapab tankou loray.
29 Whiles they see vanitie vnto thee, and prophecied a lie vnto thee to bring thee vpon the neckes of the wicked that are slaine, whose day is come when their iniquitie shall haue an ende.
Pandan yo wè pou ou fo vizyon yo, pandan yo devine manti pou ou, pou mete ou sou kou a mechan ki gen blesi fatal la, jou a sila ki fin rive a, nan lè pinisyon final la.
30 Shall I cause it to returne into his sheath? I will iudge thee in the place where thou wast created, euen in the land of thine habitation.
Remete li nan fouwo a. Nan plas kote ou te kreye a, nan pwòp peyi ou an, Mwen va jije ou.
31 And I wil powre out mine indignation vpon thee, and will blowe against thee in the fire of my wrath, and deliuer thee into the hand of beastly men, and skilfull to destroy.
Mwen va vide kòlè Mwen sou ou. Mwen va soufle sou ou ak dife kòlè Mwen e Mwen va livre ou nan men a lezòm brital yo; sila ak gran kapasite pou detwi.
32 Thou shalt bee in the fire to be deuoured: thy blood shall be in the middes of the lande, and thou shalt be no more remembred: for I the Lord haue spoken it.
Ou va vinbwa sèch pou dife a; san ou va vide nan mitan peyi a. Yo p ap sonje ou ankò; paske Mwen menm, SENYÈ a, fin pale.”’”
