Jezekiel 28
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote M ankò e te di:
2 And you, son of man, say to the prince of Tyrus, Thus says the Lord; Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, I am God, I have inhabited the dwelling of God in the heart of the sea; yet you are man and not God, though you have set your heart as the heart of God:
“Fis a lòm, pale ak chèf Tyr la: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a, “Akoz kè ou vin leve, e ou te di: ‘Mwen se yon dye, Mwen chita sou chèz Bondye, nan kè lanmè yo’; malgre, ou se yon nonm e ou pa yon dye; sepandan, ou ta fè kè ou tankou kè Bondye—
3 are you wiser than Daniel? or have not the wise instructed you with their knowledge?
gade byen, ou pi saj ke Daniel. Nanpwen sekrè ki twò difisil pou ou.
4 Hast you gained power for yourself by your [own] knowledge or your [own] prudence, and [gotten] gold and silver in your treasures?
Ak sajès ou ak bon konprann ou, ou te vin genyen richès pou tèt ou, e ou te vin gen lò ak ajan pou kès trezò ou yo.
5 By your abundant knowledge and your traffic you have multiplied your power; your heart has been lifted up by your power.
Ak gwo sajès ou, ak komès ou, ou te vin ogmante richès ou e kè ou vin leve akoz richès ou yo—”
6 Therefore thus says the Lord; Since you have set your heart as the hart of God;
“‘Akoz sa, konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Akoz ou te fè kè ou tankou kè Bondye,
7 because of this, behold, I [will] bring on you strange plagues from the nations; and they shall draw their swords against you, and against the beauty of your knowledge,
akoz sa, gade byen, Mwen va mennen etranje yo sou ou, sila ki pi sovaj pami nasyon yo. Konsa, yo va rale nepe yo kont bèlte a sajès ou, e yo va souye gwo bèlte ou a.
8 and they shall bring down your beauty to destruction. And they shall bring you down; and you shall die the death of the slain in the heart of the sea.
Yo va mennen ou desann nan twou fòs la, e ou va mouri lanmò a sila ki touye nan kè lanmè yo.
9 Will you indeed say, I am God, before them that kill you? whereas you are man, and not God.
Èske ou va di: ‘Mwen se yon dye’, nan prezans a sila ki te touye ou a? Donk, ou se yon nonm e ou pa Bondye, nan men a sila ki blese ou yo.
10 You shall perish by the hands of strangers among the multitude of the uncircumcised: for I have spoken it, says the Lord.
Ou va mouri lanmò a ensikonsi yo, nan men etranje yo, paske Mwen te pale,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a!’”
11 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Ankò pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
12 Son of man, take up a lamentation for the prince of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the Lord God; You are a seal of resemblance, and crown of beauty.
“Fis a lòm, reprann lamantasyon sou wa Tyr la e di l: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Ou te genyen so pèfeksyon an, plen sajès e pafè an bèlte.
13 You were in the delight of the paradise of God; you have bound upon you every precious stone, the sardius, and topaz, and emerald, and carbuncle, and sapphire, and jasper, and silver, and gold, and ligure, and agate, and amethyst, and chrysolite, and beryl, and onyx: and you have filled your treasures and your stores in you with gold.
Ou te nan Éden, jaden Bondye a. Tout pyè presye yo te sèvi pou kouvri ou: Ribi, topaz, dyaman; krizolit, oniks, ak jasp, Safi, malachi, emwòd, epi lò. Baz kalite travay pou tout prezantasyon te nan ou. Nan jou ou te kreye a, yo te prepare.
14 From the day that you were created you [was] with the cherub: I set you on the holy mount of God; you were in the midst of the stones of fire.
Ou te cheriben onksyone ki kouvri a e Mwen te plase ou la. Ou te sou mòn sen Bondye a. Ou te mache nan mitan a pyè dife yo.
15 You were faultless in your days, from the day that you were created, until iniquity was found in you.
Ou te san fot nan tout chemen ou yo depi jou ou te kreye a, jis rive nan lè inikite te vin twouve nan ou a.
16 Of the abundance of your merchandise you have filled your storehouses with iniquity, and have sinned: therefore you have been cast down wounded from the mount of God, and the cherub has brought you out of the midst of the stones of fire.
Akoz gwo fòs kantite komès ou a, ou te vin ranpli anndan ou ak vyolans e ou te peche. Akoz sa, Mwen te jete ou kon pwofane sòti nan mòn Bondye a. Mwen te detwi ou, O cheriben ki kouvri a, soti nan mitan wòch dife a.
17 Your heart has been lifted up because of your beauty; your knowledge has been corrupted with your beauty: because of the multitude of your sins I have cast you to the ground, I have caused you to be put to open shame before kings.
Kè ou te vin leve wo akoz bèlte ou. Ou te fè sajès ou vin konwonpi akoz gwo bèlte ou a. Mwen te jete ou atè. Mwen te mete ou devan wa yo pou yo wè ou.
18 Because of the multitude of your sins and the iniquities of your merchandise, I have profaned your sacred things; and I will bring fire out of the midst of you, this shall devour you; and I will make you [to be] ashes upon your land before all that see you.
Akoz gwo fòs kantite inikite ou yo, nan enjistis de komès ou a, ou te pwofane sanktyè ou yo. Akoz sa, Mwen te mennen dife soti nan mitan ou. Li fin manje ou nèt. Mwen te fè ou vin tounen sann sou tè a devan zye a tout moun ki wè ou yo.
19 And all that know you among the nations shall groan over you: you are gone to destruction, and you shall not exist any more.
Tout moun ki rekonèt ou pami pèp yo vin etone jiskaske yo vin sezi de ou. Ou te vin yon gwo etonman laperèz, e ou va sispann egziste jis pou tout tan.”’”
20 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di:
21 Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and prophesy against it,
“Fis a lòm, mete figi ou vè Sidon. Pwofetize kont li,
22 and say, Thus says the Lord; Behold, I am against you, O Sidon; and I will be glorified in you; and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have wrought judgments in you, and I will be sanctified in you.
epi di: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen kont ou, O Sidon, e Mwen va vin glorifye nan mitan ou. Nan lè sa a, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè Mwen egzekite jijman ladann li, e nan li, Mwen vin sen.
23 Blood and death [shall be] in your streets; and [men] wounded with swords shall fall in you and on every side of you; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Paske Mwen va voye epidemi ak bèt pou ravaje chan l. San ap koule nan ri li yo. Sila ki blese yo va tonbe nan mitan li, e nepe va antoure l tout kote. Konsa, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.
24 And there shall no more be in the house of Israel a thorn of bitterness and a pricking briar proceeding from them that are round about them, who dishonored them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
“‘“P ap gen pou lakay Israël ankò rakbwa pikan ni yon grenn pikan plen doulè k ap sòti nan sila ki te moke yo. Epi yo va konnen ke Mwen se Senyè BONDYE a.”
25 Thus says the Lord God; I will also gather Israel from the nations, among whom they have been scattered, and I will be sanctified among them, and before the peoples and nations: and they shall dwell upon their land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
“‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Lè M rasanble lakay Israël soti nan pèp kote yo gaye yo, e fè sentete Mwen vin parèt nan yo devan zye a tout nasyon yo, nan lè sa a, yo va viv nan peyi ke M te bay a sèvitè Mwen an, Jacob.
26 Yes, they shall dwell upon it safely, and they shall build houses, and plant vineyards, and dwell securely, when I shall execute judgment on all that have dishonored them, [even] on those [that are] round about them; and they shall know that I am the Lord their God, and the God of their fathers.
Yo va viv an sekirite ladann. Wi, yo va bati kay, plante chan rezen e viv ansekirite lè Mwen egzekite jijman sou tout sila ki moke de yo. Epi yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye yo a.”’”
