Ezekiel 13
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
2 'Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own heart: Hear ye the word of the LORD:
“Fis a lòm, pwofetize kont pwofèt Israël ki pwofetize. Di a sila kap pwofetize pawòl ki soti nan pwòp enspirasyon pa yo, ‘Koute pawòl SENYÈ a:
3 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Woe unto the vile prophets, that follow their own spirit, and things which they have not seen!
Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Malè a pwofèt san konprann k ap swiv pwòp lespri pa yo, e ki pa t vrèman wè anyen.
4 O Israel, thy prophets have been like foxes in ruins.
O Israël, pwofèt nou yo te tankou rena pami pil mazi ki fin kraze.
5 Ye have not gone up into the breaches, neither made up the hedge for the house of Israel, to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.
Nou pa t antre nan brèch yo, ni nou pa t bati yon miray pou antoure lakay Israël pou l ta ka kanpe nan batay nan jou SENYÈ a.
6 They have seen vanity and lying divination, that say: The LORD saith; and the LORD hath not sent them, yet they hope that the word would be confirmed!
Yo wè tout sa ki fo, ak divinò k ap bay manti yo, k ap di: ‘Pawòl SENYÈ a deklare’, lè se pa SENYÈ a ki te voye yo. Malgre sa, yo gen espwa ke pawòl yo va vin akonpli.
7 Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say: The LORD saith; albeit I have not spoken?
Èske nou pa t fè yon fo vizyon, e pale ak lang ki t ap bay manti lè nou te di: ‘SENYÈ a deklare’, men se pa Mwen ki te pale a?”’”
8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord GOD.
Akoz sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Akoz nou te pale sa ki fo, e te wè yon manti; akoz sa, gade byen, Mwen kont nou,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
9 And My hand shall be against the prophets that see vanity, and that divine lies; they shall not be in the council of My people, neither shall they be written in the register of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
“Konsa, men Mwen va kont pwofèt yo ki fè fo vizyon yo; ki pale divinasyon ki manti yo. Yo p ap gen plas nan konsèy a pèp Mwen an ni yo p ap ekri nan rejis lakay Israël yo. Ni yo p ap antre nan peyi Israël la. Konsa, nou ka konnen ke Mwen se Senyè BONDYE a.”
10 Because, even because they have led My people astray, saying: Peace, and there is no peace; and when it buildeth up a slight wall, behold, they daub it with whited plaster;
“‘Akoz, anverite yo te egare pèp Mwen an lè yo te di: “Lapè,” lè pa t gen lapè. Lè nenpòt moun bati yon miray, gade byen, yo fè l randwi ak lacho.
11 say unto them that daub it with whited plaster, that it shall fall; there shall be an overflowing shower, and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall, and a stormy wind shall break forth,
Donk, pale a sila ki randwi li ak lacho yo, ke li va tonbe. Yon inondasyon lapli va vini, e nou menm, o gran lagrèl, va tonbe. Yon van vyolan va pete l.
12 and, lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you: Where is the daubing wherewith ye have daubed it?
Gade byen, lè miray la fin tonbe, èske yo p ap mande nou: “Kote lacho ke nou te sèvi nan randwi li a?”
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: I will even cause a stormy wind to break forth in My fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in Mine anger, and great hailstones in fury to consume it.
“‘Pou sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Mwen va fè yon van vyolan vin pete nan kòlè Mwen. Anplis, va genyen nan mekontantman Mwen, yon inondasyon lapli ak lagrèl pou konsonmen li nèt ak gwo laraj.
14 So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with whited plaster, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be uncovered; and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
Konsa, Mwen va demoli miray ke nou te kouvri ak randisaj la jis rive atè, jis fondasyon li yo fin ekspoze nèt. Epi lè l tonbe, nou va vin manje nan mitan li. Epi nou va vin konprann ke se Mwen ki SENYÈ a.
15 Thus will I spend My fury upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with whited plaster; and I will say unto you: The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it;
Se konsa, Mwen va pase kòlè Mwen sou miray la ak sou sila ki te fè randisaj ak lacho sou li yo. Mwen va di nou, ‘Miray la pa la ankò, ni bòs randisaj yo pa la ankò.
16 to wit, the prophets of Israel that prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and that see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace, saith the Lord GOD.
Konsa ak pwofèt Israël sa yo ki pwofetize a Jérusalem yo, ki te fè vizyon lapè pou li yo, lè pat gen lapè a,’” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
17 And thou, son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, that prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them,
Alò, ou menm, fis a lòm, mete figi ou kont fi a pèp ou yo, k ap pwofetize apati pwòp enspirasyon yo. Se pou ou pwofetize kont yo,
18 and say: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Woe to the women that sew cushions upon all elbows, and make pads for the head of persons of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of My people, and save souls alive for yourselves?
pou di: “Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Malè a fanm ki koud braslè kon wanga sou tout ponyèt yo e fè vwal yo pou tèt moun tout wotè, pou fè lachas moun! Èske nou va chase nanm a pèp Mwen an, men konsève nanm a lòt yo pou nou menm?
19 And ye have profaned Me among My people for handfuls of barley and for crumbs of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to My people that hearken unto lies.
Pou yon men ki plen ak lòj ak kèk grenn pen, nou te degrade Mwen a pèp Mwen an, pou fè lantre nan lanmò kèk nanm ki pa ta dwe mouri, e kenbe vivan lòt ki pa ta dwe viv, nan fè manti ou a pèp Mwen an ki koute manti.’”
20 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against your cushions, wherewith ye hunt the souls as birds, and I will tear them from your arms; and I will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt as birds.
Akoz sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen kont braslè wanga nou yo, avèk sila nou chache lavi moun, tankou se zwazo yo. Mwen va rache yo nan bra nou. Epi Mwen va lage nanm sa yo lib, menm nanm de sila ke nou kapte, tankou se zwazo yo.
21 Your pads also will I tear, and deliver My people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
Anplis, Mwen va chire vwal nou yo, Mwen va delivre pèp Mwen an soti nan men nou, e yo p ap nan men nou ankò pou fè viktim lachas. Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.
22 Because with lies ye have cowed the heart of the righteous, when I have not grieved him; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, that he be saved alive;
Akoz nou te dekouraje moun ladwati a lè Mwen pa t fè yo trist; epi nou te ankouraje mechan an pou l pa kite mechanste li, pou l sove,
23 therefore ye shall no more see vanity, nor divine divinations; and I will deliver My people out of your hand; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.'
pou sa, nou p ap fè fo vizyon ankò, ni pratike divinasyon. Mwen va delivre pèp Mwen an sòti nan men nou. Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”
