< Ezekiel 37 >

1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,
Men SENYÈ a te sou mwen, Li te mennen mwen sòti pa Lespri SENYÈ a, e te depoze m nan mitan vale a. Konsa, vale a te plen ak zo.
2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
Li te fè m pase toutotou nan yo, e gade byen, te gen anpil sou sifas vale a. Epi gade byen, yo te byen sèch.
3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, you know.
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, èske zo sila yo kapab viv?” Konsa, mwen te reponn: “O Senyè BONDYE! Ou menm ki konnen.”
4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O all of you dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
Ankò li te di mwen: “Pwofetize sou zo sila yo pou di yo: ‘O zo sèch yo, tande pawòl SENYÈ a.
5 Thus says the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and all of you shall live:
Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a a zo sila yo: “Gade byen, Mwen va fè souf lavi antre nan nou pou nou kapab vin vivan.
6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and all of you shall live; and all of you shall know that I am the LORD.
Mwen va mete venn sou nou, kite chè vin grandi sou nou ankò, e mete souf nan nou pou nou ka vin vivan. Epi nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”’”
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
Konsa, mwen te pwofetize jan mwen te kòmande a. Epi pandan mwen t ap pwofetize a, te gen yon bri e, gade byen, yon son tankou yon bagay k ap souke. Konsa, zo yo te vin rive ansanm, zo ak zo parèy yo.
8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
Mwen te gade e vwala, venn te vin sou yo, chè te vin grandi, e po yo te vin kouvri. Men pa t gen souf nan yo.
9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus says the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
Epi li te di mwen: “Pwofetize a souf lavi a! Pwofetize, fis a lòm, e di a souf lavi a: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYÈ a: “Vin sòti nan kat van yo, O souf lavi, e soufle sou sila ke yo te touye yo, pou yo ka vin vivan.”’”
10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
Konsa, mwen te pwofetize jan Li te kòmande mwen an. Souf lavi a te antre nan yo. Yo te vin vivan e te kanpe sou pye yo, yon lame gran depase.
11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
Konsa li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, zo sila yo se tout lakay Israël. Gade byen, yo di: ‘Zo nou yo vin sèch e espwa nou fin peri. Nou fin koupe retire nèt.’
12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
Pou sa, pwofetize e di yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen va ouvri tonm nou yo pou fè nou monte sòti nan tonm nou yo, pèp Mwen an; epi Mwen va mennen nou antre nan peyi Israël.
13 And all of you shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
Nan lè sa a, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè M fin ouvri tonm nou yo e fè nou monte sòti nan tonm nou yo, pèp Mwen an.
14 And shall put my spirit in you, and all of you shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall all of you know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, says the LORD.
Mwen va mete Lespri M anndan nou, nou va vin vivan e Mwen va mete nou sou pwòp teren pa nou. Nan lè sa a, nou va konnen ke Mwen, SENYÈ a, te fin pale, e te fè sa,” deklare SENYÈ a.’”
15 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen ankò. Li te di:
16 Moreover, you son of man, take you one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and for all the house of Israel his companions:
“Ou menm, fis a lòm, pran pou kont ou yon mòso bwa e ekri sou li: ‘Pou Juda e pou fis a Israël parèy li yo’. Epi pran yon lòt mòso bwa e ekri sou li: ‘Pou Joseph, bwa Éphraïm nan, ak tout lakay Israël parèy li yo.’
17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in your hand.
Konsa, pou kont ou, fè yo vin jwenn youn ak lòt pou vin fè yon sèl bwa, pou yo ka vin youn nan men ou.”
18 And when the children of your people shall speak unto you, saying, Will you not show us what you mean by these?
“Lè fis a pèp ou yo mande ou e di: ‘Èske ou p ap deklare a nou menm sa ou vle di ak sa yo?’
19 Say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
Di yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen va pran bwa Joseph la, ki nan men Éphraïm nan, ak tribi Israël parèy li yo, epi Mwen va mete yo avèk li, avèk bwa a Juda a. Konsa, yo va fè yon sèl bwa. Yo va vin youn nan men M.
20 And the sticks whereon you write shall be in your hand before their eyes.
Bwa sou sila ou ekri yo, va nan men ou devan zye yo.”’
21 And say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, where they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
Pale ak yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen va pran fis Israël yo soti nan nasyon kote yo te ale yo. Epi Mwen va rasanble yo soti tout kote pou mennen yo antre nan pwòp peyi pa yo.
22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.
Konsa, Mwen va fè yo vin yon nasyon nan peyi a, sou mòn Israël yo, epi yon wa va wa pou yo tout. Konsa, yo p ap fè de nasyon ankò e yo p ap divize an de wayòm ankò.
23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwelling places, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
Yo p ap souye tèt yo ak zidòl yo ankò, ni ak bagay abominab yo, ni ak okenn nan transgresyon yo. Konsa, Mwen va delivre yo de tout abitasyon kote yo te fè peche yo e Mwen va netwaye yo. Yo va pèp Mwen e Mwen va Bondye yo.”
24 And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
“‘“Sèvitè Mwen an, David va wa sou yo e yo tout va gen yon sèl bèje. Yo va mache nan règleman Mwen yo, e yo va kenbe lalwa M yo, e yo va swiv yo.
25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever.
Yo va viv sou tè ke M te bay a Jacob la, sèvitè Mwen an, nan sila papa zansèt nou yo te rete a. Yo va viv sou li, yo menm, fis yo ak fis a fis yo, jis pou tout tan, epi David, sèvitè Mwen an, va prens yo jis pou tout tan.
26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
Mwen va fè yon akò lapè avèk yo. Li va yon akò k ap dire pou tout tan avèk yo. Mwen va etabli yo, fè yo vin miltipliye e Mwen va mete sanktyè Mwen nan mitan yo jis pou tout tan.
27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Anplis, abitasyon Mwen an va avèk yo, epi Mwen va Bondye yo, e yo va pèp Mwen.
28 And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.
Konsa, nasyon yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ ki sanktifye Israël la, lè sanktyè Mwen an nan mitan yo jis pou tout tan.”’”
