< Ezekiel 26 >
1 And in the eleuenth yeere, in the first day of the moneth, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Nan premye jou mwa a nan onzyèm lanne depi yo te depòte nou an, Seyè a pale avè m', li di m' konsa:
2 Sonne of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Ierusalem, Aha, the gate of the people is broken: it is turned vnto me: for seeing she is desolate, I shall be replenished,
-Nonm o! Lavil Tir pa t' manke kontan. Men sa li t'ap di sou lavil Jerizalèm: Li fini! Li pa ka fè gwo kòmès li te konn fè anvan an. Koulye a, wout kòmès la louvri gran louvri pou mwen. Pa gen anyen lavil Jerizalèm ankò.
3 Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, Beholde, I come against thee, O Tyrus, and I will bring vp many nations against thee, as the sea mounteth vp with his waues.
Enben, men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di: -M'ap leve dèyè nou tou, nou menm moun lavil Tir. Mwen pral mennen anpil nasyon vin atake nou. Yo pral vin sou nou yonn apre lòt tankou lanm lanmè.
4 And they shall destroy the walles of Tyrus and breake downe her towres: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rocke.
Yo pral kraze miray ranpa lavil yo. Y'ap demoli gwo fò won yo. Lèfini, m'ap pote tout pousyè a ale. M'ap kite wòch yo griyen konsa.
5 Thou shalt be for the spreading of nettes in the middes of the sea: for I haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God, and it shalbe a spoile to ye nations.
Pechè yo pral mete senn cheche sou yo, la kote lavil la te kanpe nan mitan lanmè. Se mwen menm Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa. Nasyon yo pral piye lavil la.
6 And her daughters which are in the fielde, shall be slaine by the sworde, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Yo pral touye tout moun k'ap viv nan lòt lavil ki nan rès peyi a ak nepe. Lè sa a, lavil Tir va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
7 For thus sayth the Lord God, Behold, I will bring vpon Tyrus Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, a King of Kings from the North, with horses and with charets, and with horsemen, with a multitude and much people.
Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di: -Mwen pral voye Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, pi gran wa pase tout wa yo, vin atake Tir. L'ap soti nan nò avèk chwal, cha lagè, kavalye ak yon gwo lame sòlda.
8 He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the fielde, and he shall make a fort against thee, and cast a mount against thee, and lift vp the buckler against thee.
Li pral touye tout moun k'ap viv nan lòt lavil ki nan rès peyi a. Li pral fouye gwo kannal, li pral anpile ranblè tout arebò ou. Li pral moute yon miray ak plak fè pou pare kou.
9 He shall set engins of warre before him against thy walles, and with his weapons breake downe thy towres.
Li pral frape sou miray yo avèk gwo poto. Li pral demoli gwo fò won yo ak gwo pens fè.
10 The dust of his horses shall couer thee, for their multitude: thy walles shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheeles, and of the charets, when he shall enter into thy gates as into the entrie of a citie that is broken downe.
Tèlman pral gen chwal, chwal yo pral leve yon gwo nwaj pousyè dèyè yo ki pral kouvri lavil la. Lè kavalye l' yo ap pase sou chwal yo, lè cha lagè yo ak kabwa pwovizyon yo ap pase antre nan pòtay ou yo, miray yo pral tranble. Yo pral antre nan lavil la tankou si miray yo te tonbe.
11 With the hooues of his horses shall he treade downe all thy streetes: he shall slay thy people by the sworde, and the pillars of thy strength shall fall downe to the ground.
Nou pral tande bri zago chwal li yo nan tout lari yo. L'ap fè yo touye tout moun ak nepe. Bèl gwo poto solid ou yo pral tonbe atè.
12 And they shall robbe thy riches, and spoyle thy marchandise, and they shall breake downe thy walles, and destroy thy pleasant houses, and they shall cast thy stones and thy timber and thy dust into the middes of the water.
Yo pral pran tout richès ou yo, yo pral piye tout machandiz ou yo. Y'ap kraze tout miray ou yo, y'ap demoli tout bèl kay ou yo. Y'ap pran wòch yo, bwa yo ak tout rès demoli yo, y'ap jete yo nan lanmè.
13 Thus will I cause the sounde of thy songs to cease, and the sound of thine harpes shall be no more heard.
M'ap fè nou sispann chante. Yo p'ap tande mizik gita nou yo ankò.
14 I wil lay thee like the top of a rocke: thou shalt be for a spreading of nets: thou shalt be built no more: for I the Lord haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God.
Lavil la pral tounen yon gwo pil wòch, se la pechè yo pral cheche senn yo. Yo p'ap janm rebati lavil la ankò. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki pale. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
15 Thus sayth the Lord God to Tyrus, Shall not the yles tremble at the sounde of thy fall? and at the crie of the wounded, when they shall be slaine and murthered in the middes of thee?
Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di moun lavil Tir yo: Lè lavil la va tonbe nan men lènmi l' yo, lè y'a pran masakre moun ladan l', lè moun y'ap touye yo ap rele, moun ki rete tout bò gwo lanmè a va tranble.
16 Then all the princes of the sea shall come downe from their thrones: they shall lay away their robes, and put off their broydered garments, and shall clothe themselues with astonishment: they shall sitte vpon the ground, and be astonished at euery moment, and be amased at thee.
Tout wa peyi k'ap fè kòmès sou lanmè a ap desann soti sou fotèy yo, y'ap wete gwo manto ak bèl rad bwode ki te sou yo. Yo pral chita atè sitèlman y'ap pè. Yo pral sitèlman sezi wè sa ki rive nou, y'ap tranble san rete.
17 And they shall take vp a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, Howe art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of the sea men, the renoumed citie which was strong in the sea, both she and her inhabitants, which cause their feare to be on all that haunt therein!
Yo pral plenn sò ou. Yo pral di: -Gade yon malè! Gwo lavil la disparèt! Tout batiman l' yo koule! Jan moun lavil sa yo te mèt lanmè a! Yo te fè tout moun ki rete bò gwo lanmè a pè yo.
18 Nowe shall the yles be astonished in the day of thy fall: yea, the yles that are in the sea, shall be troubled at thy departure.
Koulye a, tout moun bò gwo lanmè yo ap tranble lè y'a wè ou tonbe nan men lènmi ou yo. Wi, moun ki rete bò gwo lanmè a p'ap konn sa pou yo fè lè y'a wè jan ou fini an!
19 For thus saith the Lord God, When I shall make thee a desolate citie, like ye cities that are not inhabited, and when I shall bring the deepe vpon thee, and great waters shall couer thee,
Paske, men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di: -M'ap fè ou tounen yon dezè, tankou lavil kote pa gen moun rete. M'ap fè dlo lanmè a leve dèyè ou, l'ap kouvri ou nèt ale.
20 When I shall cast thee downe with them that descende into the pitte, with the people of olde time, and shall set thee in the lowe partes of the earth, like the olde ruines, with them, I say, which goe downe to the pitte, so that thou shalt not be inhabited, and I shall shewe my glory in the land of the liuing,
M'ap fè nou desann nan peyi kote mò yo ye a, m'ap voye nou al jwenn moun ki mouri depi lontan yo. M'ap fè nou al rete nan peyi ki anba tè a, kote nou pral rete pou kont nou, pou tout tan ansanm ak moun ki mouri deja yo. Konsa, nou p'ap gen plas nou ankò sou latè pami vivan yo.
21 I will bring thee to nothing, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for, yet shalt thou neuer be found againe, sayth the Lord God.
Mwen pral fè tout moun pè lè yo wè sa ki rive nou. Se konsa n'a fini. Moun va chache nou, men yo p'ap janm jwenn nou. Se Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa.
