< Ezekiel 32 >

1 Almost twelve years [after we had been taken to Babylonia], on the first day of the twelfth month [of that year], Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
Nan premye jou nan douzyèm mwa douzyèm lanne depi yo te depòte nou an, Seyè a pale avè m', li di m' konsa:
2 “You human, sing a sad/funeral song about the king of Egypt. Sing this to him: ‘You [think that you] [IRO] are like [SIM] a lion among the nations; or like [SIM] a monster/crocodile in the river thrashing around in the water, churning/stirring up the water with your feet and causing the water to become muddy.
-Nonm o! Chante yon chante pou plenn sò farawon an, wa peyi Lejip la. Ba l' mesaj sa a pou mwen: Ou pran pòz lyon ou nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Men pou di vre, ou tankou yon gwo kayiman k'ap benyen nan larivyè a. Ou leve tout fon dlo a ak pat ou yo, ou sal tout dlo a.
3 But this is what Yahweh the Lord says: “I will send many people to throw my net over you, and they will haul/drag you up [onto the land] in my net.
Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di ou: Nan mitan anpil nasyon ki va sanble bò kote ou, m'ap voye privye mwen sou ou pou m' pran ou.
4 They will throw you into a field [DOU] [to die]; I will allow the birds to sit on you, and all the wild animals will eat the flesh of your corpse until their stomachs are full.
M'ap voye ou jete atè, m'ap blayi ou nan mitan jaden yo. M'ap fè tout kalite zwezo ak bèt nan bwa vin manje plen vant yo ak kadav ou.
5 I will cause them to scatter your flesh on the hills and fill the valleys with your bones.
Mwen pral kouvri tout mòn ak tout fon yo ak kadav ou k'ap dekonpoze.
6 I will cause them to fill the land with your blood, all the way to the mountains, and the ravines will be filled with your flesh.
M'ap wouze tout peyi a ak san ou. M'ap vide san ou sou mòn yo, jouk ravin yo pral plen dlo kò ou.
7 When I get rid of you, I will cover the sky and not allow the stars to shine. I will put a dark cloud in front of the sun, and the moon will not shine.
Lè m'ap disparèt ou a, m'ap kouvri syèl la, m'ap bouche zetwal yo. M'ap kache solèy la dèyè nwaj yo, lalin lan p'ap klere ankò.
8 I will cause the stars in the sky to be dark, and there will be darkness over your entire land; [that will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, have said it.
Poutèt ou, m'ap tenyen dènye limyè nan syèl la. Pral fènwa nèt sou tout latè. Se mwen menm Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa.
9 And when the people of many nations hear about your being destroyed, many of them will be afraid/worried— people living in countries that you have never known about.
Anpil moun pral gen lespri yo boulvèse lè m' fè nouvèl jan ou fini an gaye nan tout nasyon yo, ata nan peyi ou menm ou pa janm konnen.
10 I will cause many people to be appalled because of [what has happened to] you, and their kings will be horrified and shudder/shake because of your [being destroyed], when I swing my sword in front of them. At the time that you will be destroyed, all of them will tremble, fearing that they also will be killed.”
M'ap fè anpil nasyon sezi wè sa k'ap rive ou la. Lè m'ap lonje nepe m' lan devan yo, wa yo pral tranble nan kanson yo. Jou w'ap tonbe a, yo tout pral tranble. Y'ap pè pou yo pa pèdi lavi yo tou.
11 This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “The swords of [the army of] the King of Babylon will strike you.
Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di wa peyi Lejip la: -Nepe wa Babilòn lan pral tonbe sou ou.
12 I will cause very many of your people to be killed by the swords of mighty soldiers [from Babylonia], who are more ruthless/cruel than the soldiers of all other nations. They will cause the people of Egypt to quit being proud, because very many [HYP] of their people will be killed.
Mwen pral fè sòlda peyi ki pi mechan an touye tout pèp ou a ak nepe yo. Yo pral ravaje tout bèl bagay ki te fè ou kontan nan peyi Lejip la. Yo pral touye dènye kras moun nan peyi a.
13 I will destroy all the cattle in Egypt that (graze/eat grass) alongside the streams. As a result, the water in those streams will never again become muddy because of people and cattle walking in them.
M'ap touye tout bèt nou yo bò dlo a. p'ap rete yon grenn moun ni yon sèl bèt pou sal dlo yo ankò.
14 Then I will allow the streams in Egypt to become calm again and flow [as smoothly] [SIM] as olive oil flows.
M'ap kite dlo yo poze, m'ap fè larivyè yo koule tou dousman. Se mwen menm Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa.
15 When I cause Egypt to become empty/desolate and strip off everything that grows on the land, and when I get rid of all the people who live there, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”’
Lè m'a fè peyi Lejip la tounen yon dezè, lè m'a devaste tout bagay nan peyi a, lè m'a touye dènye moun ki rete nan peyi a, lè sa a y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
16 That sad song about Egypt will also be sung by the people. Women of many nations will sing it. They will chant it about Egypt and all its people; [that will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said that it would happen.”
Men chante y'a chante pou plenn sò peyi Lejip la. Medam lòt nasyon yo va chante l' lè y'ap kriye pou peyi Lejip ansanm ak tout pèp li a. Wi, se chante sa a y'a chante lè y'ap kriye pou yo. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
17 On the fifteenth day of that same month, Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
Nan kenzyèm jou premye mwa douzyèm lanne depi yo te depòte nou an, Seyè a pale avè m' ankò. Li di m' konsa:
18 “You human, wail about the many people of Egypt, because I will send them to the place under the earth, where they and people of other mighty nations will be. I will send them there, along with others, down to the place where the dead are.
-Nonm o! Plenn sò tout moun peyi Lejip yo. Voye yo desann ansanm ak tout lòt moun gwo nasyon yo nan peyi kote mò yo ye a, anba tè kote moun ki deja mouri yo ye.
19 Say to them, ‘You people of [APO] Egypt, [you think that] [IRO, RHQ] you are more beautiful than the people of other nations. But you also will descend to the place where the godless dead people are.
Di yo konsa: -Nou konprann nou pi bèl pase tout moun? Enben, nou pral desann nan peyi kote mò yo ye a. Nou pral kouche ansanm ak moun ki pa pote mak kontra Bondye a.
20 [Your enemies] will pull out their swords and kill many of you. A huge number of the people of Egypt who remain will be dragged away.
Moun peyi Lejip yo pral tonbe ansanm ak moun ki mouri nan lagè yo. Gen yon nepe ki pare pou touye yo tout.
21 In the place where the dead people are, mighty leaders [of other countries] will [make fun of the people of Egypt] and say, “They have come here to lie with us godless people who were killed by our enemies’ swords!”’ (Sheol h7585)
Sòlda ki te pi vanyan yo ansanm ak tout moun ki te pran pozisyon ak moun peyi Lejip yo pral resevwa yo nan peyi kote mò yo ye a. Yo pral di: Moun ki pa pote mak kontra Bondye a ap mouri nan lagè, yo desann isit la. Se la yo vin kouche! (Sheol h7585)
22 [The corpses of the people of] Assyria will be there. They will be surrounded by [corpses of] soldiers who were killed by [their enemies’] swords.
Peyi Lasiri a la avèk tonm tout sòlda li yo bò kote l'. Yo tout mouri nan lagè.
23 The people’s graves are there in the deep pit, and [corpses of soldiers of] their army lie around their graves. Corpses of all those who had caused many others in other places to be terrified also will be there, having been killed by swords.
Yo mete tonm yo anba nèt nan peyi kote mò yo ye a. Tout sòlda li yo mouri nan lagè. Tout tonm yo bò kote l'. Se yo menm ki te mache fè moun pè yo toupatou sou latè.
24 A great number of the people of Elam will be there. They also were killed by [their enemies’] swords. They had caused people in many places [HYP] to be terrified. At that time they will lie there in that deep pit below the earth, and they, along with the others who have gone there, will be disgraced.
Peyi Elam lan la tou avèk tonm tout sòlda li yo bò kote l'. Yo tout mouri nan lagè. Yo pa pote mak kontra Bondye a, yo desann konsa nan peyi kote mò yo ye a, yo menm ki te mache fè moun pè yo toupatou sou latè. Koulye a yo wont, y'ap peye mechanste yo, yo mouri ansanm ak moun ki desann nan twou san fon an.
25 They will lie there among others who were slaughtered, surrounded by the graves of a huge crowd of other people. While they were alive, they caused people of other nations to be terrified; but they were godless, and now, having been killed by [their enemies] swords, they will lie with others in that deep pit, disgraced, all of them avoiding each other.
Wa peyi Elam lan kouche nan mitan moun pa l' yo ki mouri nan lagè. Tonm sòlda li yo bò kote l'. Yo pa pote mak kontra Bondye a, yo mouri konsa nan lagè. Sou latè, yo te mache fè tout moun pè yo. Koulye a yo wont, y'ap peye mechanste yo. Yo desann nan twou san fon an ansanm ak moun ki mouri nan lagè yo.
26 [Corpses of] soldiers of Meshech and Tubal will be there, surrounded by the graves of a huge crowd of their people. They were all godless people who were killed by swords because while they were alive, they also caused people in many places [HYP] to be terrified.
Wa peyi Mechèk la ak wa peyi Toubal la tou, ansanm avèk tonm sòlda yo bò kote yo. Yo pa pote mak kontra Bondye a, yo mouri konsa nan lagè. Yon lè yo t'ap mache fè tout moun pè sou latè.
27 They will surely [RHQ] not be buried honorably like the soldiers who have died, whose shields were buried with their corpses, whose swords were placed on their skulls in the graves. While those godless people were alive, they had caused many people in the land to be terrified, so they were punished for their sins. (Sheol h7585)
Yo p'ap fè bèl lantèman pou yo tankou pou vanyan sòlda tan lontan yo, ki te desann nan peyi kote mò yo ye a ak tout zam yo sou yo, nepe yo anba tèt yo ak plak fè pwotèj yo anwo kadav yo. Paske yon lè yo t'ap mache fè tout moun pè yo sou latè. (Sheol h7585)
28 You king of Egypt, you also be killed and will lie there with other godless people who have been killed by [their enemies’] swords.
Se konsa moun peyi Lejip yo pral mouri tankou moun ki pa pote mak kontra Bondye a, y'ap antere yo ansanm ak moun ki te mouri nan lagè yo.
29 People of the Edom people-group will be there, along with their kings and leaders. They were powerful, but they will [be killed and] lie there in the place where the other dead people are. They will lie there in that deep pit, with the other godless people.
Peyi Edon an la tou ansanm ak tout wa li yo ak chèf li yo. Yon lè yo te vanyan sòlda, men koulye a yo kouche nan peyi kote mò yo ye a ansanm ak moun ki pa pote mak kontra Bondye a epi ki te mouri nan lagè.
30 All the rulers of countries north [of Israel], including people from Sidon, will be there. Because of their power, they caused people to be terrified, but they will lie there. They were godless, and they will lie there along with others who were killed by [their enemies’] swords. They, along with everyone else who descends into that deep pit, will be disgraced.
Tout chèf peyi nan nò yo la tou ansanm ak tout moun peyi Sidon yo. Yo te sitèlman gen fòs, yo te fè moun pè yo. Koulye a, yo desann nan twou san fon an. Yo pote wont mechanste yo anba tè a ak yo. Yo mete yo kouche ansanm ak moun ki pa pote mak kontra Bondye a, epi ki te mouri nan lagè yo.
31 The king of Egypt and all his army will see them, and they will be comforted to know that there were other huge groups of people who were killed by [their enemies’] swords.
Se pral yon gwo konsolasyon pou wa peyi Lejip la ansanm ak sòlda li yo, lè y'a wè tout kantite moun ki te mouri nan lagè. Se Seyè sèl Mèt la menm ki di sa.
32 While he was living, I allowed him to cause others in many countries to be terrified, but he and his huge army will be there among other godless people who had been killed by [their enemies’] swords. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, am the one who has said [that it would happen].”
Atout mwen te fè wa peyi Lejip la mache fè moun pè l' toupatou sou latè, y'ap touye l' ansanm ak tout sòlda li yo. Ni li ni sòlda li yo pral kouche ansanm ak moun ki pa pote mak kontra Bondye a epi ki mouri nan lagè yo. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
