Ezekiel 13
1 And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
2 Son of man. prophesy against the prophets of Israel, who are prophesying, —and say unto them who prophesy out of their own heart, Hear ye the word of Yahweh,
-Nonm o! Denonse pwofèt pèp Izrayèl yo. Denonse moun sa yo k'ap bay mesaj yo menm yo fè. Di yo: Manyè koute pawòl Seyè a.
3 Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, Alas for the base prophets, —who follow their own spirit and have seen, nothing.
Men mesaj Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di: Madichon pou bann pwofèt egare sa yo! Se yo menm ki fè mesaj y'ap bay la. Yo pa janm fè ankenn vizyon vre.
4 As jackals, among ruins, thy prophets O Israel have been.
Moun Izrayèl yo, koute: Pwofèt nou yo p'ap sèvi nou anyen, se tankou chat mawon k'ap viv nan vye kay kraze.
5 Ye have not gone up into the breaches, Nor built a wall about the house of Israel, - to stand in the battle in the day of Yahweh.
Yo pa t' moute lagad kote miray la te make kraze a, ni yo pa t' rebati miray yo. Konsa, moun Izrayèl yo pa gen defans lè lagè va pete jou jijman Seyè a.
6 They have had Visions of falsehood, and Divinations of lies, Who say. Declareth Yahweh, when, Yahweh, hath not sent them, — Yet have they waited for a fulfilling of the word.
Vizyon y'ap fè yo se pou twonpe moun, mesaj y'ap bay yo se manti. Yo pretann di se mesaj Bondye y'ap bay. Men, se pa mwen menm ki janm pale ak yo. Lèfini, yo konprann pou m' fè sa yo di k'ap rive a rive vre.
7 Is it not a Vision of falsehood, ye have seen, and a Divination of lies, ye have spoken, Since ye are saying. Declareth Yahweh! when I have not spoken?
Mwen tou di yo: Vizyon y'ap fè yo se tèt yo y'ap twonpe. Mesaj y'ap bay yo se manti. Y'ap plede di men mesaj Bondye bay. Men, mwen pa t' janm pale ake yo.
8 Therefore Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Because ye have spoken falsehood, And have had visions of lies, Therefore behold me! against you, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di yo: Se twonpe n'ap twonpe moun ak pawòl nou yo. Tout vizyon nou yo se manti. Se poutèt sa m'ap leve dèyè nou tou! Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
9 So then my hand shall be against the prophets who have Visions of falsehood and who divine Divinations of lies— In the council of my people, shall they not be found. And in the register of the house of Israel, shall they not be written, And Upon the so of Israel, shall they not enter, — So shall ye know that, I, am The Lord Yahweh,
Mwen pral pini pwofèt k'ap fè vizyon pou twonpe moun, k'ap bay mesaj ki pa laverite. p'ap gen plas pou yo lè pèp la va reyini. Yo p'ap gen non yo sou lis fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo. Yo p'ap janm tounen nan peyi a ankò. Lè sa a, y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la.
10 Because, yea, even because, they have led astray my people saying. Prosperity! when there was no prosperity, —and one man, was building a partition wall, when there they were! eating it with whitewash
Pwofèt yo ap woule pèp mwen an. Anyen p'ap mache nan peyi a. Yo menm menm, y'ap plede di tout bagay ap mache byen. Pèp la ap moute yon miray wòch san mòtye, pwofèt yo menm vini, yo blanchi l' ak dlo lacho.
11 Say thou unto them who are coating with whitewash It shall fall, - There hath come an overflowing rain And I will make hail-stones fall, And a tempestuous wind shall break it down.
Di moun k'ap pase dlo lacho sou miray la: Miray la pral tonbe. Mwen pral voye yon gwo lapli. Lagrèl pral tonbe, yon gwo van tanpèt pral soufle.
12 Lo! when the wall hath fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where is the coating, wherewith ye coated it?
Lè miray la fin tonbe, y'a mande yo kisa dlo lacho a te fè pou miray la.
13 Therefore Thus saith my Lord, Yahweh, So will I break down with a tempestuous wind. in mine indignation, — And an overflowing rain in mine anger, shall there be, With hailstones in wrath to make an end;
Enben, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di: Mwen pral fè yon sèl kòlè, m'ap voye yon gwo van tanpèt, yon gwo lapli ak lagrèl ki pral tonbe pou kraze miray la.
14 And I will pull down the wall which ye have coated with whitewash And will bring it unto the ground So shall be discovered its foundation, Yea it shall fall And ye shall come to an end in the midst thereof, So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh.
M'ap lage miray nou te blanchi ak lacho a atè, m'ap kraze l' ratè, wòch fondasyon yo pral parèt deyò. Miray la ap tonbe sou nou, l'ap kraze nou. Lè sa a, nou tout va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
15 Thus will I bring to an end mine indignation against the wall, and against them who were coating it with whitewash, And will say to you No more is the wall, And no more are they who were coating it:
Mwen pral move sou miray la ansanm ak tout moun ki te blanchi l' ak lacho a. Lè m'a fin fè yo sa m' gen pou m' fè yo a, m'a di nou: Miray la pa la ankò, ni bann moun ki te blanchi l' ak lacho a,
16 to wit the prophets of Israel who are prophesying unto Jerusalem, and are seeing, on her behalf, visions of prosperity, — when there is no prosperity, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
bann pwofèt pèp Izrayèl yo k'ap bay bèl mesaj pou lavil Jerizalèm lan. Anyen p'ap mache nan peyi a, epi yo menm y'ap plede di yo fè vizyon tout bagay ap mache byen. Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
17 And thou, Son of man Set thy face against the daughters of thy people, Those who are prophesying out of their own heart, — And prophesy thou against them;
Seyè a di ankò: -Nonm o! Koulye a, vire tèt ou gade nan direksyon medam k'ap fè mesaj yo yo menm! Yo pran pòz pwofèt yo nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la! Denonse yo!
18 and say, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Alas! for the women Who sew oracle, cases on all elbows And prepare wraps upon the head of every stature to hunt souls, — the souls ye hunt, are those of my people, Whereas your own souls: , ye keep alive.
Lèfini, di yo men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, voye di yo: Madichon pou nou, medam! N'ap mare kòd wanga nan ponyèt tout moun. N'ap moute mouchwa tèt pou tout kalite moun pou yo ka gen pouvwa pran nanm moun. Nou dèyè pou nou gen pouvwa fè sa nou vle ak nanm lòt moun san anyen pa rive nou.
19 Thus have ye profaned me unto my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, Putting to death the souls that should not die, and Keeping alive the souls that should not live, — By your lying to my people, who hearken to lies
N'ap derespekte mwen devan pèp mwen an. Pou kèk ponyen grenn lòj ak kèk moso pen n'ap touye moun ki pa merite mouri, n'ap sove moun ki pa merite viv ankò. N'ap bay pèp mwen an yon bann manti. Yo menm, yo byen kontan kwè nou.
20 Therefore, Thus saith my Lord Yahweh, Behold me! against your oracle-cases wherewith ye are hunting the souls to make them fly, And I will tear them off your arms, And let go the souls of them whose souls ye are hunting as birds;
Enben! Men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di: Mwen pa vle wè kòd wanga nan ponyèt nou yo. Se ak yo nou sèvi pou nou pran nanm lòt moun tankou zwezo nan pèlen. M'ap rache yo nan ponyèt nou. M'ap delivre moun nou te pran nan pèlen yo pou y' al fè wout yo.
21 And will tear off your wraps, And deliver my people out of your hand, And they shall be no longer in your hand to be hunted; - So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh.
M'ap rache mouchwa tèt nou yo, m'ap sove pèp mwen an anba men nou. Nou p'ap ka fè sa nou vle ak yo ankò. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
22 Because of the paining of the heart of the righteous man with falsehood, whom, I, have not pained, — And strengthening the hands of the lawless man, that he should not turn from his wicked way. by letting him live
Mwen pa ta renmen anyen rive bon moun yo. Men nou menm, avèk manti n'ap bay yo, n'ap dekouraje yo. N'ap ankouraje mechan yo pou yo pa chanje. Nou pa ba yo chans sove lavi yo.
23 Therefore—of falsehood: , shall ye have no vision, And a divination: , shall ye not divine any more, — So will I deliver my people out of your hand, And ye shall know that, I, am Yahweh.
Enben! Se poutèt sa koulye a, nou p'ap fè vizyon pou twonpe moun ankò, ni nou p'ap ba yo manti sou sa ki pral rive yo. Mwen pral sove pèp mwen an anba men nou. Konsa, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
