Ezekiel 11
1 And [the] Spirit lifts me up, and it brings me to the east gate of the house of YHWH, that is facing the east, and behold, at the opening of the gate [are] twenty-five men, and I see in their midst Jaazaniah son of Azzur, and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, heads of the people.
Apre sa, Lespri Bondye a pran m', li leve m' anlè, li mennen m' bò gwo pòtay tanp lan ki bay sou solèy leve. Toupre pòtay la, mwen wè vennsenk gason. Pami yo te gen de chèf peyi a, Jazanya, pitit gason Azou a, ak Pelatya, pitit gason Benaja a.
2 And He says to me, “Son of man, these [are] the men who are devising iniquity, and who are giving evil counsel in this city;
Bondye di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Mesye sa yo gen move lide ap travay dèyè tèt yo. Y'ap bay move konsèy nan lavil la.
3 who are saying, It [is] not near—to build houses, it [is] the pot, and we [are] the flesh.
Y'ap plede di: Talè konsa nou p'ap ka bati kay ankò! Lavil la tankou yon chodyè sou dife, nou menm, nou tankou vyann ladan l'. Nou pa bezwen fè anyen kote nou ye a.
4 Therefore prophesy concerning them, prophesy, son of man.”
Se poutèt sa, nonm o! Men mesaj m'ap ba ou pou ou di sou yo.
5 And [the] Spirit of YHWH falls on me, and He says to me, “Say, Thus said YHWH: You have said correctly, O house of Israel, And I have known the steps of your spirit.
Lespri Seyè a desann sou mwen ankò. Seyè a ban m' lòd pou m' bay pèp la mesaj sa a: -Nou menm fanmi Izrayèl la, mwen konnen sa n'ap di, mwen konnen lide nou gen dèyè tèt nou.
6 You multiplied your wounded in this city, And filled its out-places with the wounded.
Nou sitèlman touye moun isit nan lavil la, lari yo plen kadav.
7 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Your wounded whom you placed in its midst, They [are] the flesh, and it [is] the pot, And He has brought you out from its midst.
Konsa, men sa mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, m'ap di nou: Wi, lavil la tankou yon chodyè. Men kisa ki vyann lan? Se kadav moun nou touye yo! Nou menm menm m'ap fè yo mete nou deyò nan lavil la.
8 You have feared a sword, And I bring in a sword against you, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
Nou pè lagè, pa vre? Enben, m'ap voye lagè sou nou! Se mwen menm menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
9 And I have brought you out of its midst, And given you into the hand of strangers, And I have done judgments among you.
M'ap fè yo mete nou deyò nan lavil la. M'ap lage nou nan men moun lòt nasyon yo. M'ap pini nou jan m' te pwomèt nou sa a.
10 You fall by the sword, I judge you on the border of Israel, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.
N'ap mouri nan lagè nan mitan peyi nou an. Se la m'ap pini nou. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
11 It is not for a pot for you, Nor are you for flesh in its midst, I judge you at the border of Israel.
Lavil sa a p'ap pwoteje nou jan chodyè pwoteje vyann ki ladan l'. Se nan mitan peyi Izrayèl la menm m'ap pini nou.
12 And you have known that I [am] YHWH, For you have not walked in My statutes, And you have not done My judgments, And according to the judgments of the nations Who are around you, you have done!”
Wi, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a. Pase pou nou te swiv lòd mwen yo, pase pou n' te fè sa m' mande nou fè, nou te pito swiv vye mès pèp k'ap viv nan peyi ki bò kote nou yo.
13 And it comes to pass, at my prophesying, that Pelatiah son of Benaiah is dying, and I fall on my face, and cry—a loud voice—and say, “Aah! Lord YHWH, You are making an end of the remnant of Israel.”
Antan m'ap bay mesaj la, Pelatya, pitit gason Benaja a, tonbe li mouri frèt. Mwen lage kò m' ajenou, mwen bese tèt mwen jouk atè, mwen rele byen fò, mwen di: -O Seyè, Bondye sèl Mèt la! Eske ou pral touye ti rès moun ki rete nan pèp Izrayèl la?
14 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di:
15 “Son of man, your brothers, your brothers, men of your family, and all the house of Israel—all of it—[are] they to whom inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Keep far off from YHWH;
-Nonm o! Moun ki rete lavil Jerizalèm yo ap pale sou ou, sou frè ou, sou fanmi ou, sou tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo te depòte yo. Y'ap di: Moun yo depòte yo twò lwen pou yo ka fè sèvis pou Seyè a, se konsa Seyè a ban nou peyi a pou rele nou pa nou.
16 it [is] ours, the land has been given for an inheritance; therefore say, Thus said Lord YHWH: Because I put them far off among nations, And because I scattered them through lands, I am also for a little sanctuary to them, In lands to where they have gone in.
Se poutèt sa, men mesaj Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, bay pou moun yo depòte yo. Wi, se mwen menm ki te voye yo al viv byen lwen nan mitan lòt nasyon yo, mwen gaye yo nan yon bann lòt peyi. Men, m'ap toujou la avèk yo nan peyi kote yo ale a tankou si m' te nan kay yo mete apa pou mwen an.
17 Therefore say, Thus said Lord YHWH: And I have assembled you from the peoples, And I have gathered you from the lands, Into which you have been scattered, And I have given the ground of Israel to you.
Se poutèt sa, men sa mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, m'ap di yo: M'ap pran yo nan mitan nasyon kote mwen te gaye yo a, m'ap sanble yo. M'ap fè yo soti kite peyi sa yo, m'ap ba yo peyi Izrayèl la ankò pou yo.
18 And they have gone in there, And turned aside all its detestable things, And all its abominations—out of it.
Lè y'a tounen, y'a wete tout vye zidòl y'a jwenn ansanm ak tout vye bagay derespektan ki t'ap fèt nan peyi a.
19 And I have given one heart to them, And I give a new spirit in your midst, And I have turned the heart of stone out of their flesh, And I have given a heart of flesh to them.
M'ap ba yo yon lòt kè, yon lòt lespri. M'ap wete kè di kou wòch yo te genyen nan lestonmak yo a, m'ap ba yo yon kè ki gen bon santiman.
20 So that they walk in My statutes, And keep My judgments, and have done them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God.
Konsa, y'a mache dapre lòd m'a ba yo. Y'a fè tou sa m'a mande yo fè. Y'a koute m' lè m'a pale yo. Se pèp pa m' lan menm yo pral ye, mwen menm mwen pral Bondye yo.
21 As for those whose heart is going to the heart Of their detestable things and their abominations, I have put their way on their head, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
Men, m'ap pini moun ki pa vle lage vye zidòl yo, ki toujou soti pou yo fè vye bagay derespektan yo. M'ap pini yo pou sa yo fè. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki pale.
22 And the cherubim lift up their wings, and the wheels [are] alongside them, and the glory of the God of Israel [is] over them above.
Bèt vivan yo pran vole, wou yo pati ansanm ak yo. Bèl limyè prezans Bondye pèp Izrayèl la te anwo yo.
23 And the glory of YHWH goes up from off the midst of the city, and stands on the mountain, that [is] on the east of the city.
Bèl limyè prezans Seyè a soti kite lavil la, li ale poze sou mòn ki te sou bò solèy leve a.
24 And [the] Spirit has lifted me up, and brings me to Chaldea, to the expulsion, in a vision, by [the] Spirit of God, and the vision that I have seen goes up from off me;
Nan vizyon an toujou, mwen wè lespri Bondye a pran m', li mennen m' tounen lavil Babilòn nan mitan moun yo te depòte yo. Lèfini, vizyon an disparèt.
25 and I speak to the expulsion all the matters of YHWH that He has showed me.
Mwen rakonte moun yo te depòte yo tou sa Seyè a te fè m' wè.
