< Ezekyèl 35 >
1 Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 -Nonm o! Vire tèt ou gade nan direksyon mòn Seyi, bay moun Edon yo mesaj mwen ba ou pou yo a.
Son of man, set thy face against the mountain of Se'ir, and prophecy against it,
3 W'a di yo men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di nou: Nou menm moun peyi Seyi, m'ap leve dèyè nou tou! Mwen pral lonje men m' sou nou pou m' pini nou. M'ap fè peyi a tounen yon dezè san pesonn ladan l'.
And say unto it, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will be against thee, O mountain of Se'ir, and I will stretch out my hand over thee, and I will render thee desolate and wasted.
4 M'ap fè tout lavil nou yo tounen mazi. M'ap fè peyi a rete san pesonn ladan l'. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
Thy cities will I lay in ruins, and thou thyself shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
5 Nou pa janm sispann rayi moun Izrayèl yo. Lè malè lagè tonbe sou yo, lè yo t'ap resevwa dènye chatiman pou peche yo a, nou lage yo nan men lènmi yo.
Because thou hast had an undying hatred, and didst surrender the children of Israel to the power of the sword, at the time of their calamity, at the time of the iniquity of the end:
6 Se poutèt sa, jan nou konnen mwen vivan vre a, se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap pale: m'ap fè nou benyen nan dlo kò nou, nou p'ap ka chape. Wi, nou te mete san yo deyò, san an gen pou pousib nou.
Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, I will surely let thy blood flow, and blood shall pursue thee; since thou didst not hate blood-shedding, so shall blood pursue thee.
7 M'ap fè mòn Seyi yo, peyi Edon an, tounen yon dezè kote moun pa rete. M'ap touye dènye moun k'ap ale vini nan peyi nou an.
Thus will I change the mountain of Se'ir into a desolate land and a waste, and I will cut off from it him that travelleth forward and backward.
8 Mwen pral kouvri mòn nou yo ak kadav. Ti mòn nou yo, fon nou yo ak ravin nou yo pral kouvri ak kadav moun yo touye nan lagè.
And I will fill his mountains with his slain: as regardeth thy hills, and thy valleys, and all thy ravines, in them shall fall those that are slain by the sword.
9 M'ap fè peyi nou an tounen dezè pou toutan. p'ap gen yon moun nan lavil nou yo. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
Into perpetual desolations will I change thee, and thy cities shall not be restored: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
10 Nou te di konsa ni nasyon Izrayèl la, ni nasyon Jida a ansanm ak tout peyi yo a, se pou nou yo ye, nou pral pran yo pou nou, malgre se mwen menm ki te Bondye yo a.
Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall indeed be mine, and we will take possession thereof; whereas the Lord was there:
11 Enben! Jan nou konnen mwen vivan vre a, se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap pale: Jan nou te move sou yo! Jan nou te rayi sò yo! Jan nou pa t' vle wè yo! M'ap fè nou peye pou tou sa. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm k'ap pini nou pou tou sa nou te fè yo.
Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will even do according to thy anger, and according to thy envy which thou didst use out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I judge thee.
12 Wi, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a, mwen te tande jan nou t'ap pase mòn peyi Izrayèl yo nan betiz, lè n'ap plede di: Yo tounen yon dezè, yo ban nou yo pou n' ka devore yo.
And thou shalt know that I am the Lord: I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given unto us to consume them.
13 Mwen te tande ak zòrèy mwen jan nou te derespekte m', jan nou pa t' manke pale m' mal.
And ye boasted greatly against me with your mouth, and have multiplied against me your words: I have indeed heard them.
14 Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: -Tout moun sou latè pral kontan lè m'a fè peyi nou an tounen yon dezè
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee desolate.
15 menm jan nou te kontan wè peyi moun Izrayèl yo, peyi moun ki rele m' pa m' yo, tounen yon dezè. Tout mòn Seyi yo, wi, tout peyi Edon an, pral tounen dezè. Lè sa a, tout moun va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
As thou didst rejoice over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was made desolate: so will I do unto thee; desolate shalt thou be, O mountain of Se'ir, and all Idumea—altogether; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
