Ezekiel 15

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

Seyè a pale avè m' ankò: Li di m' konsa:

2 Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, the vine branch which is among the trees of the forest?

-Nonm o! Kisa bwa pye rezen an genyen ki fè l' pi bon pase bwa tout lòt pyebwa ou ka jwenn nan rak?

3 Shall wood be taken thereof to make any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?

Eske li ka ba ou bwa pou fè anyen? Eske yo ka fè pikèt kwòk avè l' pou pandye bagay?

4 Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel: the fire hath devoured both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned; is it profitable for any work?

Li ka sèvi pou limen dife ase. Dife a boule de bout li yo ansanm ak mitan an. Apre sa, ou pa ka fè anyen avè l' ankò.

5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less, when the fire hath devoured it, and it is burned, shall it yet be meet for any work?

Li pa t' ankò boule a, yo te tou pa ka fè anyen avè l'. Koulye a dife a fin boule l', se pi rèd ankò.

6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di: Menm jan yo pran yon bwa pye rezen nan mitan yon rakbwa, yo jete l' nan dife pou boule l', se sa menm mwen pral fè ak moun lavil Jerizalèm yo.

7 And I will set my face against them; they shall go forth from the fire, but the fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.

M'ap kenbe tèt ak yo. Yo te chape anba dife a yon fwa, men se dife k'ap boule yo. Lè m'a kenbe tèt ak yo, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.

8 And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, saith the Lord GOD.

Yo twonpe m' tankou yon fanm k'ap twonpe mari l'. Se poutèt sa m'ap fè peyi a tounen yon dezè. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
