< Ezekiel 8 >
1 And it comes to pass, in the sixth year, in the sixth [month], on the fifth of the month, I am sitting in my house, and [the] elderly of Judah are sitting before me, and there a hand of Lord YHWH falls on me,
Nan senkyèm jou sizyèm mwa nan sizyèm lanne depi yo te depòte pèp la, mwen te chita lakay mwen ansanm ak chèf pèp Jida yo ki te reyini lakay mwen. Mwen rete konsa mwen santi pouvwa Seyè a, Bondye Sèl Mèt la, desann sou mwen.
2 and I look, and behold, a likeness as the appearance of fire, from the appearance of His loins and downward—fire, and from His loins and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the color of electrum.
Mwen leve je m' gade, mwen wè yon fòm ki te sanble ak yon moun. Depi nan ren l' desann, kò l' te tankou yon flanm dife. Depi nan ren l' moute, li te klere tankou kwiv byen poli.
3 And He puts forth a form of a hand, and takes me by a lock of my head, and [the] Spirit lifts me up between the earth and the heavens, and brings me to Jerusalem in visions of God, to the opening of the inner gate that is facing the north, where the seat of the figure of jealousy [is] that is making jealous,
Mwen wè l' lonje men l' tankou men yon moun, li pran m' nan cheve. Nan vizyon an, li leve m' byen wo nan syèl la, li mennen m' lavil Jerizalèm, devan pòtay anndan ki bay sou bò nò a, kote yo te mete yon estati zidòl ki te lakòz Bondye ankòlè.
4 and behold, there the glory of the God of Israel [is] as the appearance that I saw in the valley.
La, mwen wè yon gwo bèl limyè ki te fè m' konprann se Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki te la, menm jan mwen te wè l' nan fon an.
5 And He says to me, “Son of man, now lift up your eyes [toward] the way of the north.” And I lift up my eyes [toward] the way of the north, and behold, on the north of the gate of the altar [is] this figure of jealousy, at the entrance.
Bondye di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Vire je ou gade bò nan nò! Mwen vire je m' gade bò nan nò. Mwen wè toupre lotèl ki bò pòtay kote moun pase pou antre a, estati zidòl ki te lakòz Bondye ankòlè a.
6 And He says to me, “Son of man, are you seeing what they are doing? The great abominations that the house of Israel is doing here, to keep far off from My sanctuary; and turn again, [and] see great abominations.”
Bondye di m' ankò: -Nonm o! Eske ou wè sa y'ap fè? Gade tout bagay derespektan moun pèp Izrayèl yo ap plede fè pou yo fè m' kite tanp mwen an. Ou gen pou wè bagay ki pi mal pase sa toujou.
7 And He brings me to an opening of the court, and I look, and behold, a hole in the wall;
Li pran m', li mennen m' nan pòtay ki bay sou lakou anndan an, li moutre m' yon twou nan miray la.
8 and He says to me, “Son of man, now dig through the wall”; and I dig through the wall, and behold, an opening.
Li di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Fè yon gwo twou nan miray la. Mwen fè gwo twou a. Lèfini, mwen jwenn yon pòt.
9 And He says to me, “Go in, and see the evil abominations that they are doing here.”
Li di m' konsa: -Louvri pòt la antre! Gade tout kalite vye bagay derespektan moun sa yo ap fè la a!
10 And I go in, and look, and behold, every form of creeping thing, and detestable beast—and all the idols of the house of Israel—carved on the wall, all around,
Mwen antre, mwen gade. Tout miray la nèt te kouvri ak pòtre koulèv, pòtre tout kalite bèt yo pa gen dwa manje ak pòtre lòt vye zidòl moun pèp Izrayèl yo ap sèvi.
11 and seventy men from [the] elderly of the house of Israel—and Jaazaniah son of Shaphan standing in their midst—are standing before them, and each [with] his censer in his hand, and [the] abundance of [the] cloud of the incense is going up.
Swasanndis nan chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo te kanpe la devan zidòl yo. Yonn ladan yo te Jazanya, pitit Chafan an. Yo chak te kenbe yon lansanswa nan men yo. Gwo lafimen lansan t'ap moute.
12 And He says to me, “Have you seen, son of man, that which elderly of the house of Israel are doing in the darkness, each in [the] inner chambers of his imagery, for they are saying, YHWH is not seeing us, YHWH has forsaken the land?”
Bondye di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Eske ou wè sa chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo ap plede fè an kachèt? Yo rete ap fè sèvis nan yon chanm kay plen zidòl. Men eskiz yo bay: O wi! Bondye pa wè nou! Bondye vire do l' bay peyi a!
13 And He says to me, “Turn again, [and] see [the] great abominations that they are doing.”
Apre sa, Seyè a di m' ankò: -Ou gen pou wè yo ap fè bagay ki pi derespektan toujou.
14 And He brings me to the opening of the gate of the house of YHWH that [is] at the north, and behold, there the women are sitting, weeping for Tammuz.
Lè sa a, li mennen m' bò pòtay nò tanp lan, li moutre m' yon bann fanm ki chita ap kenbe yon rèl lanmò pou zidòl yo rele Tamouz la.
15 And He says to me, “Have you seen, son of man? Turn again, [and] see greater abominations than these.”
Li di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Ou wè sa, pa vre? Ou gen pou ou wè gwo bagay pi derespektan ankò y'ap fè.
16 And He brings me into the inner court of the house of YHWH, and behold, at the opening of the temple of YHWH, between the porch and the altar, about twenty-five men, their backs toward the temple of YHWH, and their faces eastward, and they are bowing themselves eastward to the sun.
Li mennen m' nan lakou anndan tanp lan. Mwen wè vennsenk nèg konsa kanpe bò pòt pou antre nan kote ki apa nèt pou Seyè a, nan mitan lotèl la ak galeri a. Yo te bay tanp lan do. Fas yo vire bò solèy leve. Yo bese tèt yo byen ba, y'ap fè sèvis pou solèy la k'ap leve.
17 And He says to me, “Have you seen, son of man? Has it been a light thing to the house of Judah to do the abomination that they have done here, that they have filled the land with violence, and turn back to provoke Me to anger? And behold, they are putting forth the branch to their nose!
Seyè a di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Eske ou wè sa? Moun peyi Jida sa yo ap fè tout vye bagay derespektan y'ap plede fè yo. Y'ap mache fè mechanste nan tout peyi a. Men sa pa kont yo toujou, se pou yo vini jouk isit la nan tanp lan pou fè yo, pou yo fè m' pi move toujou. Men y'ap fè move jès pou derespekte m', yo mete yon ti branch bwa anba nen yo.
18 And I also deal in fury, My eye does not pity, nor do I spare, and they have cried [with] a loud voice in My ears and I do not hear them.”
Mwen menm tou mwen pral fè yo santi jan mwen move sou yo. Yo mèt rele byen fò nan zòrèy mwen. Mwen p'ap tande yo. Mwen p'ap gen pitye pou yo. Yo mèt rele jan yo vle nan zòrèy mwen, mwen p'ap pran priyè.
