Ezekiel 3
1 And He says to me, “Son of man, eat that which you find, eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, manje sa ou jwenn. Manje woulo sa a pou ale pale ak lakay Israël.”
2 And I open my mouth, and He causes me to eat this scroll.
Konsa, mwen te louvri bouch mwen eLi te lonje ban m woulo a pou manje.
3 And He says to me, “Son of man, feed your belly, and fill your bowels with this scroll that I am giving to you”; and I eat it, and it is as honey for sweetness in my mouth.
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, bay vant ou manje, e plen kò ou ak woulo sa ke Mwen ap bay ou a.” Alò, mwen te manje li. Li te dous kon siwo myèl nan bouch mwen.
4 And He says to me, “Son of man, go forth, go to the house of Israel, and you have spoken to them with My words.
Konsa, Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, ale lakay Israël pou pale pawòl Mwen yo avèk yo.
5 For you [are] not sent to a people deep of lip and heavy of tongue—to the house of Israel;
Paske ou p ap voye kote yon pèp ak langaj ki difisil, men a pèp Israël la.
6 not to many peoples, deep of lip and heavy of tongue, whose words you do not understand. If I had not sent you to them—they listen to you,
Ni a anpil pèp ak pawòl ki pa ka konprann, ni lang difisil, ak pawòl ke ou p ap ka konprann. Men Mwen voye ou kote sila ki ta dwe koute ou yo.
7 but the house of Israel are not willing to listen to you, for they are not willing to listen to Me, for all the house of Israel are brazen-faced and strong-hearted.
Malgre sa, lakay Israël p ap dakò koute ou, akoz yo p ap dakò koute Mwen menm. Anverite, tout lakay Israël gen tèt di e wondonmon.
8 Behold, I have made your face strong against their face, and your forehead strong against their forehead.
Gade byen, Mwen te fin fè figi ou di kont figi yo, e fwontèn ou di kont fwontèn yo.
9 As an adamant, harder than a rock, I have made your forehead; do not fear them, nor are you frightened before them, for they [are] a house of rebellion.”
Tankou dyaman, pi di pase silèks, Mwen te fè fwontèn ou. Pa krent yo ni vin twouble devan yo, malgre yo se yon kay rebèl.”
10 And He says to me, “Son of man, all My words that I speak to you, receive with your heart, and hear with your ears;
Anplis, Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, pran mete nan kè ou tout pawòl Mwen yo, ke Mwen va pale a ou e koute ak atansyon.
11 and go forth, go to the expulsion, to the sons of your people, and you have spoken to them, and have said to them: Thus said Lord YHWH; whether they hear, or whether they refrain.”
Ale kote egzile yo, fis a pèp ou yo. Pale ak yo e di yo, menm si yo koute oswa yo pa koute: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a.’”
12 And a spirit lifts me up, and I hear a noise behind me, a great rushing—“Blessed [is] the glory of YHWH from His place!”
Konsa, Lespri a te leve mwen monte e mwen te tande yon gwo bri k ap gwonde dèyè m: “Beni se glwa SENYÈ a nan plas Li a.”
13 Even a noise of the wings of the living creatures touching one another, and a noise of the wheels alongside them, even a noise of a great rushing.
Epi mwen te tande zèl a kreyati vivan yo, youn k ap touche lòt e bri a wou yo bò kote yo, menm yon gwo bri k ap gwonde.
14 And [the] Spirit has lifted me up, and takes me away, and I go bitterly, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of YHWH [is] strong on me.
Konsa, Lespri a te leve mwen monte e te pran m ale. Mwen te vini byen anmè ak laraj nan lespri m, e men SENYÈ a te fò sou mwen.
15 And I come to the expulsion, at Tel-Ahib, who are dwelling at the river Chebar, and where they are dwelling I also dwell [for] seven days, causing astonishment in their midst.
Konsa, mwen te vini kote egzile ki te rete akote rivyè Kebar yo nan Thel-Abib. Mwen te chita la, etonen nèt pandan sèt jou kote yo te rete a.
16 And it comes to pass, at the end of seven days,
Nan fen sèt jou yo, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini sou mwen e te di:
17 that there is a word of YHWH to me, saying, “Son of man, I have given you [as] a watchman to the house of Israel, and you have heard a word from My mouth, and have warned them from Me.
“Fis a lòm, Mwen te chwazi ou kon gadyen pou lakay Israël. Depi lè ou tande yon pawòl sòti nan bouch mwen, avèti yo li soti nan Mwen.
18 In My saying to the wicked: You surely die; and you have not warned him, nor have spoken to warn the wicked from his wicked way, so that he lives; he—the wicked—dies in his iniquity, and I require his blood from your hand.
Lè Mwen di a mechan an: ‘Ou va, anverite, mouri’ e ou pa avèti li, ni pale fò pou avèti mechan an pou kite chemen mechan l lan, pou l ka viv, mechan sila a va mouri nan inikite li, men san li, mwen va egzije li soti nan men ou.
19 And you, because you have warned the wicked, and he has not turned back from his wickedness, and from his wicked way, he dies in his iniquity, and you have delivered your soul.
Men si ou te avèti mechan an, e li pa kite mechanste li a, ni chemen mechan li an, li va mouri nan inikite li, men ou delivre nanm ou.”
20 And in the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, and he has done perversity, and I have put a stumbling-block before him, he dies; because you have not warned him, he dies in his sin, and his righteousness that he has done is not remembered, and I require his blood from your hand.
“Ankò, lè yon nonm ladwati ta vire kite ladwati pou komèt inikite e Mwen plase yon obstak devan l, li va mouri. Akoz ou pa t avèti li, li va mouri nan peche li e zèv ladwati ke li te konn fè yo, p ap sonje, men san li, mwen va egzije li nan men ou.
21 And you, because you have warned him—the righteous—that the righteous does not sin, and he has not sinned, he surely lives, because he has been warned; and you have delivered your soul.”
Sepandan, si ou te avèti nonm dwat la ke moun ladwati pa dwe peche, e li pa peche, li va anverite viv, akoz li te koute avètisman an; epi ou delivre nanm ou.”
22 And there is a hand of YHWH on me there, and He says to me, “Rise, go forth to the valley, and there I speak with you.”
Men a SENYÈ a te sou mwen la, e Li te di m: “Leve ou menm, ale deyò nan plèn nan, epi la, Mwen va pale avèk ou.”
23 And I rise and go forth to the valley, and behold, there the glory of YHWH is standing as the glory that I had seen by the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.
Konsa, mwen te leve ale nan plèn nan. Epi gade byen, glwa a SENYÈ a te kanpe la, tankou glwa ke m te wè akote rivyè Kebar a. Epi mwen te tonbe sou figi m.
24 And [the] Spirit comes into me, and causes me to stand on my feet, and He speaks with me, and says to me, “Go in, be shut up in the midst of your house.
Nan lè sa a, Lespri a te antre nan mwen. Li te fè m kanpe sou pye m, Li te pale avè m e te di mwen: “Ale, fèmen tèt ou anndan lakay ou.
25 And you, son of man, behold, they have put thick bands on you, and have bound you with them, and you do not go forth in their midst;
Selon ou menm, fis a lòm, y ap mete kòd sou ou pou mare ou ak yo. Konsa, ou p ap ka sòti deyò pami yo.
26 and I cause your tongue to cleave to your palate, and you have been mute, and are not for a reprover to them, for they [are] a house of rebellion.
Mwen va fè lang ou kole anlè bouch ou pou ou vin bèbè e pou ou p ap ka fè yo repwoch, paske lakay yo rebèl.
27 And in My speaking with you, I open your mouth, and you have said to them: Thus said Lord YHWH; the hearer hears, and the refrainer refrains; for they [are] a house of rebellion.”
Men lè M pale ak ou, Mwen va ouvri bouch ou e ou va di yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a’. Sila ki tande a, kite li tande; epi sila ki refize tande a, kite li refize; paske yo se yon kay rebèl.”
