Ezekiel 21
1 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò. Li di m' konsa:
2 "Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and speak against the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;
-Nonm o! Vire figi ou gade nan direksyon lavil Jerizalèm. Denonse sa y'ap fè nan tanp yo. Avèti moun peyi Izrayèl yo!
3 and tell the land of Israel, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I am against you, and will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
W'a di yo: Men mesaj Seyè a bay pou nou: Mwen leve dèyè nou koulye a. Mwen pral rale nepe m' nan djenn li, mwen pral touye nou tout, bon kou move.
4 Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the Negev to the north:
Wi, mwen pral touye bon moun kou move moun nan peyi a. Se poutèt sa menm mwen pral rale nepe m' nan djenn li pou touye tout moun depi nan sid rive nan nò.
5 and all flesh shall know that I, the LORD, have drawn forth my sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more."'
Tout moun va konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki rale nepe m' nan djenn li. Anyen p'ap ka fè m' mete l' nan plas li ankò.
6 "Sigh therefore, you son of man; with the breaking of your thighs and with bitterness you will sigh before their eyes.
Men ou menm, nonm o! Se pou ou plenn paske kè ou ap fann, ou dekouraje. Wi, se pou ou plenn pou tout moun ka wè ou.
7 It shall be, when they tell you, 'Why do you sigh?' that you shall say, 'Because of the news, for it comes; and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: look, it comes, and it shall be done, says the LORD.'"
Lè y'a mande ou poukisa w'ap plenn konsa, w'a di yo: Se paske m' pran nouvèl malè ki pral rive a. Lè l'a rive vre, kè tout moun pral kase, ponyèt yo ap febli, y'ap pèdi tout fòs kouraj yo, yo p'ap ka kanpe sou janm yo. Lè a rive, li deja sou nou. Se Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa.
8 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
9 "Son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the LORD: Say, "A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished;
-Nonm o! Bay mesaj sa a. Di pèp la men sa mwen menm Seyè a, mwen voye di yo: Nepe a, nepe a! Men y'ap file l'. Men y'ap netwaye li.
10 it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? The rod of my son, it condemns every tree.
Y'ap file l' pou touye moun. Y'ap netwaye li pou fè l' fè zèklè. Pa gen fè fèt ankò, paske pèp mwen an pa okipe avètisman ak pinisyon mwen te ba li.
11 It is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yes, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the killer."'
Wi, y'ap netwaye nepe a. Y'ap pare l' pou moun ka sèvi avè l'. Y'ap file l', y'ap netwaye l' pou yo mete l' nan men bouwo a.
12 Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people, it is on all the princes of Israel: they are delivered over to the sword with my people; strike therefore on your thigh.
Ou menm, nonm o! Rele kont rele ou! Rele byen fò. Se pou pèp mwen an y'ap pare nepe a, pou tout chèf pèp Izrayèl yo. Yo pral touye yo ansanm ak tout pèp mwen an. Pran lapenn pou yo!
13 For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that condemns shall be no more?" says the LORD.
N'ap sonde pèp la. Si yo derefize chanje, tout bagay sa yo ap rive vre! Se Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa.
14 "You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the deadly wounded: it is the sword of the great one who is deadly wounded, which enters into their rooms.
Koulye a, nonm o! Bay mesaj sa a. Lèfini, bat men pou ankouraje. Nepe a ap pase de fwa. Nepe a ap pase twa fwa. Nepe a ap touye anpil moun. Nepe a ap sènen yo kote yo vire.
15 I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: Ah. It is made as lightning, it is pointed for slaughter.
L'ap fè pèp mwen an pèdi tout kouraj li, y'ap tonbe yonn sou lòt. Mwen mete nepe nan tout pòtay yo, yon nepe k'ap bay zèklè, yon nepe ki pare pou touye anpil moun.
16 'Gather yourselves together, go to the right, set yourselves in array, go to the left, wherever your face is set.'
Ou menm, nepe file, koupe sou bò dwat, koupe sou bò gòch. Kote ou vire, koupe!
17 I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest: I, the LORD, have spoken it."
Mwen menm tou, m'ap bat men pou ankouraje. Se pou m' move sou yo jouk mwen p'ap kapab ankò. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki pale.
18 The word of the LORD came to me again, saying,
Seyè a pale avè m', li di m' konsa:
19 "Also, you son of man, appoint two ways that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they both shall come forth out of one land: and mark out a place, mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
-Nonm o! Trase de chemen kote pou wa Babilòn lan ka pase ak nepe l'. De chemen yo ap soti nan menm peyi a. Mete de mak nan kalfou kote yo separe a,
20 You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem, the fortified.
yonn pou moutre wa a chemen ki mennen lavil Raba nan peyi Amon, yonn pou moutre l' chemen ki ale peyi Jida rive lavil Jerizalèm ki byen pwoteje ak ranpa a.
21 For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he shook the arrows back and forth, he consulted the teraphim, he looked in the liver.
Wa Babilòn lan kanpe nan kalfou a bò mak yo, l'ap souke flèch yo voye atè pou li ka konnen ki wout pou li pran. L'ap mande zidòl yo sa pou l' fè, l'ap egzaminen fresi bèt yo touye pou bondye yo.
22 In his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build forts.
Bon! Men li kenbe flèch ki bay direksyon lavil Jerizalèm lan! Sa vle di se pou l' atake lavil Jerizalèm ak machin lagè yo, bay lòd pou yo touye tout moun, bay siyal pou yo mache sou lavil la ak gwo poto bwa pou defonse pòtay li yo, pou yo anpile ranblè nan pye miray li yo, pou yo fouye gwo kannal sènen l' toupatou.
23 It shall be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken.
Moun lavil Jerizalèm yo p'ap kwè sa w'ap di a se vre paske yo te pase kontra avè l'. Men, mesaj w'ap bay la se pou fè yo chonje tou sa yo fè ki mal, pou fè konnen y'ap fè yo prizonye.
24 "Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Because you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear; because you have come to memory, you shall be taken with the hand.
Se poutèt sa, men sa mwen menm Seyè sèl Mèt la, m'ap di yo: Tout moun konnen jan nou pa bon. Nou fè tout peche nou yo aklè. Nan tou sa n'ap fè nou moutre jan nou mechan. Se poutèt sa, y'ap kondannen nou. N'ap tonbe anba men lènmi nou yo.
25 "'You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day has come, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
Kanta pou ou menm, chèf peyi Izrayèl la, krimenèl san respè pou Bondye, jou pa ou la, jou dènye chatiman ou lan ap rive.
26 thus says the LORD: "Remove the turban, and take off the crown; this shall be no more the same; exalt that which is low, and abase that which is high."
Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki pale. Wete kouwòn lan ak gwo bèl mouchwa madras la nan tèt ou. Tout bagay pral chanje. Sa ki anba yo pral moute chèf, sa ki te chèf yo pral tonbe.
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.'
Kraze, kraze, brize! Wi, m'ap fè lavil la tounen mazi. Men, pou sa rive, fòk moun mwen te chwazi pou pini lavil la vini anvan. Se nan men l' m'ap lage l'.
28 "You, son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the LORD concerning the people of Ammon, and concerning their reproach; and say, "A sword, a sword is drawn, for the slaughter it is furbished, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning;
-Nonm o! Bay mesaj la! Pale. Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di moun peyi Amon yo k'ap plede joure pèp Izrayèl la. Di yo konsa: Nepe a, nepe a pare pou touye! Li byen file pou depatcha. Li byen netwaye pou fè l' fè zèklè.
29 while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day has come in the time of the iniquity of the end.
Vizyon nou t'ap fè yo pa bon vizyon. Sa yo te di ki gen pou rive a p'ap rive. Nou menm mechan, nou menm malveyan, jou pa nou an, jou pou yo ban nou dènye chatiman nou an ap vini. Nepe a pral tonbe sou nou.
30 Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, will I judge you.
Remete nepe a nan djenn li. Mwen pral jije ou kote yo te kreye ou la, nan peyi kote ou te fèt la.
31 I will pour out my indignation on you; I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath; and I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skillful to destroy.
M'ap fè ou santi jan m' move. Tankou yon gwo dife k'ap boule, m'ap soufle sou ou, m'ap lage ou nan men lwijanboje yo ki pa konnen pase kraze moun.
32 You shall be for fuel to the fire; your blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shall be remembered no more: for I, the LORD, have spoken it."'"
Dife pral boule tout kò ou. San ou pral koule nan tout peyi a. Pesonn p'ap janm chonje ou ankò. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki pale.
