< Ezekiel 5 >
1 "You, son of man, take a sharp sword; You shall take it as a barber's razor to you, and shall cause it to pass on your head and on your beard: then take balances to weigh, and divide the hair.
Seyè a di mwen: -Nonm o! Pran yon kouto byen file, tankou razwa kwafè, wete tout bab nan figi ou ak tout cheve nan tèt ou. Lèfini, pran yon balans pou peze cheve ou koupe yo, w'a fè yo fè twa pil menm fòs.
2 A third part you shall burn in the fire in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled; and you shall take a third part, and strike with the sword around it; and a third part you shall scatter to the wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.
Lè y'a sispann sènen lavil la, w'a boule yon premye pil nan mitan lavil la. W'a pran yon dezyèm pil, w'a koupe l' ti moso ti moso avèk nepe a pandan w'ap fè tou lavil la pa deyò. Dènye pil cheve a menm, w'a voye l' anlè pou van pote yo ale. Mwen menm, m'a kouri dèyè yo ak nepe mwen.
3 You shall take of it a few in number, and bind them in your skirts.
W'a sere yon ponyen cheve, w'a koud li nan woulèt rad ou.
4 Of these again you shall take, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire; from it shall a fire come forth into all the house of Israel."
Lèfini, w'a pran de twa branch cheve nan sa ou te sere yo, w'a voye yo jete nan dife pou yo boule. Dife a ap gaye nan tout peyi Izrayèl la.
5 "Thus says Jehovah: 'This is Jerusalem; I have placed her at the center of the nations, and countries are around her.
Men sa Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa, di ankò: -Gade lavil Jerizalèm! Mwen te mete l' kanpe nan mitan latè ak tout lòt nasyon yo bò kote l'.
6 She has rebelled against my ordinances in doing wickedness more than the nations, and against my statutes more than the countries that are around her; for they have rejected my ordinances, and as for my statutes, they have not walked in them.'
Men, Jerizalèm revòlte kont kòmandman ak lòd mwen yo. Li fè pi mal pase lòt nasyon ki bò kote l' yo. Moun li yo derefize swiv prensip mwen te ba yo. Yo pa fè sa m' te ba yo lòd fè a.
7 "Therefore thus says Jehovah: 'Because you are turbulent more than the nations that are around you, and have not walked in my statutes, neither have kept my ordinances, neither have done after the ordinances of the nations that are around you';
Se poutèt sa, nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, di nou: Nou pa swiv lòd mwen yo, nou pa fè sa m' te mande nou fè. Konsa, nou fè pi mal pase moun lòt nasyon ki bò kote nou yo. Nou pa menm swiv lòd moun lòt nasyon yo gen lakay yo.
8 therefore thus says Jehovah: 'Look, I, even I, am against you; and I will execute judgments in the midst of you in the sight of the nations.
Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè a, Bondye nan syèl la, di ou: M'ap leve dèyè ou tou, mwen pral pini ou devan tout lòt nasyon yo.
9 I will do in you that which I have not done, and whereunto I will not do any more the like, because of all your abominations.
N'ap fè yon bann bagay mwen pa vle wè menm. Se poutèt sa m'ap pini lavil Jerizalèm jan mwen poko janm pini l', jan mwen p'ap janm pini l' ankò.
10 Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of you, and the sons shall eat their fathers; and I will execute judgments on you; and the whole remnant of you will I scatter to all the winds.'
Se poutèt sa, nan lavil Jerizalèm papa ak manman va manje pwòp pitit yo, pitit va manje papa ak manman yo. M'ap pini nou, m'ap gaye rès moun ki va rete yo toupatou.
11 "'Therefore as I live,' says Jehovah, 'surely, because you have defiled my sanctuary with all your detestable things, and with all your abominations, therefore I will also diminish you; neither shall my eye spare, and I also will have no pity.
Se poutèt sa, jan nou konnen mwen vivan vre a, se mwen menm Seyè, Sèl Mèt la, k'ap pale: Paske nou derespekte tanp mwen an ak tout vye bagay degoutan ansanm ak bann bagay mwen pa vle wè menm nou te fè ladan l' yo, mwen fè sèman, mwen menm tou m'ap san pitye pou nou. M'ap voye nou jete, mwen p'ap kite nou yonn chape.
12 A third part of you shall die with the pestilence, and with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of you; and a third part shall fall by the sword around you; and a third part I will scatter to all the winds, and will draw out a sword after them.
Pèp la ap fè twa pòsyon, yon pòsyon pral mouri anba maladi ak grangou nan lavil la, yon lòt pòsyon pral mouri nan lagè lòt bò miray ranpa lavil la. M'ap gaye rès la nan tout direksyon. Lèfini, m'ap kouri dèyè yo ak nepe.
13 Thus shall my anger be accomplished, and I will cause my wrath toward them to rest, and I shall be comforted; and they shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken in my zeal, when I have accomplished my wrath on them.
M'a tire revanj mwen, m'ap krase yo dèske yo fè m' fè kòlè, m'ap move sou yo jouk mwen pa kapab ankò. Lè sa a, y'a rekonèt se mwen menm Seyè a ki te pale konsa ak yo, paske yo te pouse m' fè jalouzi, mwen te fache sou yo jouk mwen pa kapab ankò.
14 Moreover I will make you a desolation and a reproach among the nations that are around you, in the sight of all that pass by.
M'ap fè nou tounen yon dezè nan mitan tout lòt peyi yo, yon wont pou moun k'ap pase bò kote nou ye a.
15 And you shall be a reproach and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment, to the nations that are around you, when I shall execute judgments on you in anger and in wrath, and in wrathful rebukes; I, Jehovah, have spoken;
Lè m'a fè kòlè a, lè m'a move anpil sou nou an, lè m'a pini nou rèd mare jan mwen te vle l' la, m'ap avili nou, m'ap fè nou tounen yon wont. N'a sèvi yon avètisman pou tout nasyon ki bò kote nou yo, y'a soti pè lè y'a wè sa ki rive nou. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
16 when I shall send on them the evil arrows of famine, that are for destruction, which I will send to destroy you: and I will increase the famine on you, and will break your staff of bread;
M'ap koupe viv nou, m'ap kite nou mouri grangou. Nou pral santi doulè grangou a tankou si se flèch yo voye sou nou pou touye nou.
17 and I will send on you famine and evil animals, and they shall bereave you; and pestilence and blood shall pass through you; and I will bring the sword on you: I, Jehovah, have spoken it.'"
M'ap voye grangou ak bèt nan bwa k'ap touye tout pitit nou yo. Move maladi pral tonbe sou nou, y'ap mete san nou deyò. M'ap voye lènmi vin fè nou lagè. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki pale.
