Ezekiel 3
1 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, that which thou findest eat, eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.'
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, manje sa ou jwenn. Manje woulo sa a pou ale pale ak lakay Israël.”
2 And I open my mouth, and He causeth me to eat this roll.
Konsa, mwen te louvri bouch mwen eLi te lonje ban m woulo a pou manje.
3 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, thy belly thou dost feed, and thy bowels thou dost fill with this roll that I am giving unto thee;' and I eat it, and it is in my mouth as honey for sweetness.
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, bay vant ou manje, e plen kò ou ak woulo sa ke Mwen ap bay ou a.” Alò, mwen te manje li. Li te dous kon siwo myèl nan bouch mwen.
4 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, go, enter in unto the house of Israel, and thou hast spoken with My words unto them.
Konsa, Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, ale lakay Israël pou pale pawòl Mwen yo avèk yo.
5 For, not unto a people deep of lip and heavy of tongue [art] thou sent — unto the house of Israel;
Paske ou p ap voye kote yon pèp ak langaj ki difisil, men a pèp Israël la.
6 not unto many peoples, deep of lip and heavy of tongue, whose words thou dost not understand. If I had not sent thee unto them — they, they do hearken unto thee,
Ni a anpil pèp ak pawòl ki pa ka konprann, ni lang difisil, ak pawòl ke ou p ap ka konprann. Men Mwen voye ou kote sila ki ta dwe koute ou yo.
7 but the house of Israel are not willing to hearken unto thee, for they are not willing to hearken unto Me, for all the house of Israel are brazen-faced and strong-hearted.
Malgre sa, lakay Israël p ap dakò koute ou, akoz yo p ap dakò koute Mwen menm. Anverite, tout lakay Israël gen tèt di e wondonmon.
8 'Lo, I have made thy face strong against their face, and thy forehead strong against their forehead.
Gade byen, Mwen te fin fè figi ou di kont figi yo, e fwontèn ou di kont fwontèn yo.
9 As an adamant harder than a rock I have made thy forehead; thou dost not fear them, nor art thou affrighted before them, for a rebellious house [are] they.'
Tankou dyaman, pi di pase silèks, Mwen te fè fwontèn ou. Pa krent yo ni vin twouble devan yo, malgre yo se yon kay rebèl.”
10 And He saith unto me, 'Son of man, all My words, that I speak unto thee, receive with thy heart, and with thine ears hear;
Anplis, Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, pran mete nan kè ou tout pawòl Mwen yo, ke Mwen va pale a ou e koute ak atansyon.
11 and go, enter in unto the Removed, unto the sons of thy people, and thou hast spoken unto them, and hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: whether they hear, or whether they forbear.'
Ale kote egzile yo, fis a pèp ou yo. Pale ak yo e di yo, menm si yo koute oswa yo pa koute: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a.’”
12 And lift me up doth a spirit, and I hear behind me a noise, a great rushing — 'Blessed [is] the honour of Jehovah from His place!' —
Konsa, Lespri a te leve mwen monte e mwen te tande yon gwo bri k ap gwonde dèyè m: “Beni se glwa SENYÈ a nan plas Li a.”
13 even a noise of the wings of the living creatures touching one another, and a noise of the wheels over-against them, even a noise of a great rushing.
Epi mwen te tande zèl a kreyati vivan yo, youn k ap touche lòt e bri a wou yo bò kote yo, menm yon gwo bri k ap gwonde.
14 And a spirit hath lifted me up, and doth take me away, and I go bitterly, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of Jehovah on me [is] strong.
Konsa, Lespri a te leve mwen monte e te pran m ale. Mwen te vini byen anmè ak laraj nan lespri m, e men SENYÈ a te fò sou mwen.
15 And I come in unto the Removed, at Tel-Ahib, who are dwelling at the river Chebar, and where they are dwelling I also dwell seven days, causing astonishment in their midst.
Konsa, mwen te vini kote egzile ki te rete akote rivyè Kebar yo nan Thel-Abib. Mwen te chita la, etonen nèt pandan sèt jou kote yo te rete a.
16 And it cometh to pass, at the end of seven days,
Nan fen sèt jou yo, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini sou mwen e te di:
17 that there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'Son of man, a watchman I have given thee to the house of Israel, and thou hast heard from My mouth a word, and hast warned them from Me.
“Fis a lòm, Mwen te chwazi ou kon gadyen pou lakay Israël. Depi lè ou tande yon pawòl sòti nan bouch mwen, avèti yo li soti nan Mwen.
18 In My saying to the wicked: Thou dost surely die; and thou hast not warned him, nor hast spoken to warn the wicked from his wicked way, so that he doth live; he — the wicked — in his iniquity dieth, and his blood from thy hand I require.
Lè Mwen di a mechan an: ‘Ou va, anverite, mouri’ e ou pa avèti li, ni pale fò pou avèti mechan an pou kite chemen mechan l lan, pou l ka viv, mechan sila a va mouri nan inikite li, men san li, mwen va egzije li soti nan men ou.
19 And thou, because thou hast warned the wicked, and he hath not turned back from his wickedness, and from his wicked way, he in his iniquity dieth, and thou thy soul hast delivered.
Men si ou te avèti mechan an, e li pa kite mechanste li a, ni chemen mechan li an, li va mouri nan inikite li, men ou delivre nanm ou.”
20 'And in the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, and he hath done perversity, and I have put a stumbling-block before him, he dieth; because thou hast not warned him, in his sin he dieth, and not remembered is his righteousness that he hath done, and his blood from thy hand I require.
“Ankò, lè yon nonm ladwati ta vire kite ladwati pou komèt inikite e Mwen plase yon obstak devan l, li va mouri. Akoz ou pa t avèti li, li va mouri nan peche li e zèv ladwati ke li te konn fè yo, p ap sonje, men san li, mwen va egzije li nan men ou.
21 And thou, because thou hast warned him — the righteous — that the righteous sin not, and he hath not sinned, he surely liveth, because he hath been warned; and thou thy soul hast delivered.'
Sepandan, si ou te avèti nonm dwat la ke moun ladwati pa dwe peche, e li pa peche, li va anverite viv, akoz li te koute avètisman an; epi ou delivre nanm ou.”
22 And there is on me there a hand of Jehovah, and He saith to me, 'Rise, go forth to the valley, and there I do speak with thee.'
Men a SENYÈ a te sou mwen la, e Li te di m: “Leve ou menm, ale deyò nan plèn nan, epi la, Mwen va pale avèk ou.”
23 And I rise and go forth unto the valley, and lo, there the honour of Jehovah is standing as the honour that I had seen by the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.
Konsa, mwen te leve ale nan plèn nan. Epi gade byen, glwa a SENYÈ a te kanpe la, tankou glwa ke m te wè akote rivyè Kebar a. Epi mwen te tonbe sou figi m.
24 And come into me doth a spirit, and causeth me to stand on my feet, and He speaketh with me, and saith unto me, 'Go in, be shut up in the midst of thy house.
Nan lè sa a, Lespri a te antre nan mwen. Li te fè m kanpe sou pye m, Li te pale avè m e te di mwen: “Ale, fèmen tèt ou anndan lakay ou.
25 'And thou, son of man, lo, they have put on thee thick bands, and have bound thee with them, and thou goest not forth in their midst;
Selon ou menm, fis a lòm, y ap mete kòd sou ou pou mare ou ak yo. Konsa, ou p ap ka sòti deyò pami yo.
26 and thy tongue I cause to cleave unto thy palate, and thou hast been dumb, and art not to them for a reprover, for a rebellious house [are] they.
Mwen va fè lang ou kole anlè bouch ou pou ou vin bèbè e pou ou p ap ka fè yo repwoch, paske lakay yo rebèl.
27 And in My speaking with thee, I do open thy mouth, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah; the hearer doth hear, and the forbearer doth forbear; for a rebellious house [are] they.
Men lè M pale ak ou, Mwen va ouvri bouch ou e ou va di yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a’. Sila ki tande a, kite li tande; epi sila ki refize tande a, kite li refize; paske yo se yon kay rebèl.”
