< Ezekiel 12 >

1 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me saying:
Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
2 Son of man. In the midst of a perverse house, dost thou dwell, — Who have eyes to see—and have not seen. Ears have they to hear—and have no heard, For a perverse house, they are.
Fis a lòm, ou rete nan mitan yon kay rebèl, ki gen zye pou wè, men yo pa wè, e zòrèy pou tande, men yo pa tande; paske se kay rebèl yo ye.
3 Thou, therefore Son of man, Prepare thee baggage for exile, and exile thyself, by day, before their eyes, —so shalt thou exile thyself out of thy place unto another place before their eyes, peradventure they will consider— though a perverse house, they are.
“Pou sa, fis a lòm, prepare valiz ou menm pou ou ekzile e antre an egzil nan mitan jounen an kote yo ka wè l byen klè. Nan egzil, ou va deplase yon kote pou rive yon lòt kote devan zye yo. Petèt yo va konprann, malgre se yon kay rebèl yo ye.
4 Therefore shalt thou take forth thy baggage as baggage for exile, by day before their eyes, —and thou thyself, shalt go forth in the evening, before their eyes, like them who go forth to exile.
Mete bagaj ou deyò devan zye yo, kon bagaj pou egzil. Konsa, ou va sòti deyò nan aswè devan zye yo, tankou sila ki prale an egzil yo.
5 Before their eyes, break thou forth by thyself through the wall, —and carry forth through it.
Fouye yon twou nan miray la devan zye yo, e sòti ladann pou vin deyò.
6 Before their eyes, Upon the shoulder, shalt thou lift it. In thick darkness, take it forth, Thy face, shalt thou cover so that thou see not the land; For a sign, have I appointed thee to the house of Israel.
Mete bagaj ou sou zepòl ou devan yo pou yo wè e pote li sòti deyò nan aswè. Ou va kouvri figi ou pou ou pa ka wè peyi a, paske Mwen plase ou kon yon sign pou lakay Israël.”
7 And I did so, just as I was commanded, My baggage, took I forth as baggage for exile by day, and in the evening, I brake forth by myself through the wall, by force: in the twilight, I took it forth—on to my shoulder, I lifted it, before their eyes.
Mwen te fè sa konsa jan mwen te kòmande a. Nan lajounen, mwen te mennen bagaj mwen deyò, tankou bagaj a yon egzile. Epi nan aswè, mwen te fouye yon twou nan miray la ak men m. Mwen te sòti deyò nan fènwa a e te pote li sou zepòl mwen pou yo ta ka wè l.
8 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me in the morning, saying:
Nan maten, pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen e te di:
9 Son of man, Have not the house of Israel the perverse house, said unto thee, — What art thou doing?
“Fis a lòm, èske lakay Israël, kay rebèl sa a, pa t di ou: ‘Kisa w ap fè la a?’
10 Say unto them, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, — [For] the Bearer, is this burden, in Jerusalem, and [for] all the house of Israel such as are in their midst.
“Di yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Fado sa a se pou prens Jérusalem nan, li menm ak tout lakay Israël ki ladann nan.”’
11 Say, I, am your sign: As I have done, so. shall it be done to them, Into exile—into captivity, shall they go.
“Di yo: ‘Mwen se yon sign pou nou. Jan mwen te fè, se konsa l ap vin rive nou. Konsa, yo va ale an egzil, an kaptivite.
12 Yea, the Bearer who is in their midst, Upon his shoulder, shall lift it. In thick darkness, shall he go forth, Through the wall, shall they break to bear forth through it, — His face, shall he cover, to the end that, his own eye, may not see the land.
“‘Prens ki pami yo a va chaje bagaj li sou zepòl li nan aswè pou sòti. Yo va fouye yon twou nan miray la pou fè l sòti. Li va kouvri figi li pou li pa wè peyi a ak pwòp zye li.
13 Then will I spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my snare; And I will take him to Babylon. in the land of the Chaldeans, The which, indeed, he shall not see. And yet there, shall he die!
Anplis, Mwen va voye filè Mwen sou li e li va vin kenbe nan pèlen Mwen. Konsa, Mwen va mennen li Babylone, nan peyi a Kaldeyen yo. Men li p ap wè l; malgre sa, se la l ap mouri.
14 And all who are round about him to help him and all his troops, will I scatter to every wind, —and, a sword, will I make bare after them.
Mwen va gaye nan tout van, tout sila ki antoure li yo, moun k ap ede li yo ak tout sòlda li yo. Epi se nepe a Mwen va rale dèyè yo.
15 So shall they know that, I, am Yahweh, — By my dispersing them among the nations, And scattering them throughout the lands.
“‘Pou yo ka konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a lè Mwen gaye yo pami nasyon yo e pwopaje yo pami peyi yo.
16 Yet will I leave remaining of them men easily counted, from the sword from the famine and from the pestilence, —that they may recount all their abominations among the nations whither they have come, So shall they know that, I, am Yahweh.
Men Mwen va epanye kèk nan yo de nepe a, gwo grangou a, ak epidemi a, pou yo ka pale tout abominasyon yo pami nasyon kote yo prale yo. Konsa, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.’”
17 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me, saying:
Anplis, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen e te di:
18 Son of man, Thy bread with trembling, shalt thou eat, — And, thy water in agitation and in fear, shalt thou drink.
“Fis a lòm, manje pen ou ak tranbleman, e bwè dlo ou ak tranbleman e ak kè twouble.
19 Then shalt thou say unto the people of the land, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem upon the soil of Israel, Their bread with anxious care, shall they eat, And, their water in astonishment, shall they drink, — That her land, may be deserted, of her fulness, because of the violence of all them who dwell therein:
Di a pèp peyi a: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a konsènan moun ki rete Jérusalem yo nan peyi Israël la: “Yo va manje pen yo ak kè twouble e bwè dlo ak gwo laperèz, akoz peyi yo va depouye nèt de tout bonte li, akoz vyolans a tout moun ki demere ladann yo.
20 Yea, the cities that are inhabited, shall be laid waste, And, the land, shall become, an astonishment, — So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh.
Vil kote moun rete yo va vin devaste nèt e peyi a va vin yon dezolasyon. Konsa, ou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”’”
21 And the word of Yahweh came unto me saying:
Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen e te di:
22 Son of man What is this proverb ye have, concerning the soil of Israel, saying, — The days, are prolonged, Therefore shall every vision come to nought?
“Fis a lòm, ki pwovèb sa a, ke nou menm pèp la, gen konsènan peyi Israël, ki di: ‘Jou yo long e tout vizyon yo vin gate’?
23 Therefore say unto them, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, I will cause this proverb to cease, And they shall use it as a proverb no more in Israel, — But speak unto them, The days, are drawn near, And the substance of every vision.
Pou sa, di yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Mwen va fè pwovèb sa a sispann pou yo pa sèvi l ankò kon pwovèb an Israël.”’ Men di yo: “Jou yo ap apwoche ansanm ak lè pou tout vizyon yo akonpli.
24 For there shall no more be— Any vision of falsehood Or divination of deceit, In the midst of the house of Israel.
Paske p ap gen ankò okenn fo vizyon ni okenn divinasyon flatè anndan kay Israël la.
25 For, I, Yahweh will speak whatsoever word I please to speak, And it shall be done, It shall not be delayed any more, — For in your own days, O perverse house, will I speak a word and perform it, Declareth My Lord. Yahweh.
Paske Mwen menm, SENYÈ a va pale e nenpòt pawòl ke M di, va vin acheve. Sa p ap pran reta ankò, paske nan jou ou yo, O lakay rebèl, Mwen va pale pawòl la e Mwen va akonpli li,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.’”
26 And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
Anplis, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen e te di:
27 Son of man. Lo! the house of Israel are saying, the vision which he seeth is for many days, Yea for times far away, hath he prophesied.
“Fis a lòm, gade byen, lakay Israël ap di: ‘Vizyon ke li fè a se pou anpil ane k ap vini e li pwofetize pou yon tan ki lwen.’
28 Therefore say unto them. Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, None of my words shall be delayed any more, — Whatsoever word I speak, then shall it be performed, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
“Pou sa, di yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Okenn nan pawòl Mwen yo p ap pran reta ankò. Nenpòt sa ke M pale, va vin akonpli,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.’”
