< Ezekyèl 38 >
1 Seyè a pale avè m' ankò. li di m' konsa:
The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2 -Nonm o! Vire tèt ou gade sa Gòg ap fè a. Se li ki pi gwo chèf moun Mechèk ak moun Toubal yo nan peyi Magòg. Bay mesaj mwen ba ou sou li a.
“Son of man, set your face towards Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 W'a di Gòg, pi gwo chèf moun Mechèk ak moun Toubal yo, men mesaj mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di li: Koulye a ou menm Gòg, m'ap leve dèyè ou.
and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.
4 M'ap fè ou kase tèt tounen, m'ap mete bayonn nan machwè ou. M'ap trennen ou, ou menm ansanm ak tout lame sòlda ou yo, chwal ou yo ak kavalye ou yo, ak bèl inifòm yo sou yo. Yon gwo lame w'ap genyen lè sa a, chak sòlda ak nepe yo nan yon men ak yon gwo osinon yon ti plak fè pwotèj nan lòt men an.
I will turn you around, and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, with all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in full armour, a great company with buckler and shield, all of them handling swords;
5 Moun peyi Pès, moun peyi Letiopi ak moun peyi Pout ap mache avè ou. Yo tout gen gwo plak fè pwotèj sou ponyèt yo ak kas fè sou tèt yo.
Persia, Cush, and Put with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 Tout sòlda peyi Gome yo, tout moun lavil Bèt-Togama ki nan nò nèt la, yo kanpe avè ou tou, ansanm ak kantite moun anpil lòt nasyon.
Gomer, and all his hordes; the house of Togarmah in the uttermost parts of the north, and all his hordes—even many peoples with you.
7 Di l' konsa: Li mèt pare, li mèt pare tout sòlda l' yo ki sanble bò kote l' pou yo tann lòd mwen yo.
“‘“Be prepared, yes, prepare yourself, you, and all your companies who are assembled to you, and be a guard to them.
8 Apre kèk tan m'ap ba li lòd pou l' al anvayi yon peyi kote moun ki te rive chape nan lagè yo te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo. Wi, li pral anvayi mòn peyi Izrayèl yo ki te rete pandan lontan tankou yon dezè. Men, moun peyi Izrayèl yo soti nan mitan moun lòt nasyon yo. Koulye a y'ap viv lakay yo ak kè poze, san ankenn danje.
After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land that is brought back from the sword, that is gathered out of many peoples, on the mountains of Israel, which have been a continual waste; but it is brought out of the peoples and they will dwell securely, all of them.
9 L'a moute vin atake yo ansanm ak tout lame li ak tout kantite moun lòt nasyon ki avè l' yo. L'ap tankou yon van tanpèt. L'ap kouvri tout peyi a tankou yon gwo nwaj.
You will ascend. You will come like a storm. You will be like a cloud to cover the land, you and all your hordes, and many peoples with you.”
10 Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di Gòg: Lè jou sa a va rive, lespri ou pral pran travay, ou pral fè move lide nan tèt ou.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “It will happen in that day that things will come into your mind, and you will devise an evil plan.
11 Ou pral deside pou ou anvayi yon peyi san defans, kote moun ap viv ak kè poze, san bri san kont, kote moun rete nan lavil san miray ranpa, san pòtay ni ba fè.
You will say, ‘I will go up to the land of unwalled villages. I will go to those who are at rest, who dwell securely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 Ou pral piye, ou pral devalize, ou pral pran tou sa moun yo genyen nan lavil ki te fin kraze yon lè a. Moun sa yo tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo. Koulye a, yo gen anpil bèt ak anpil byen, y'ap viv nan gran kalfou latè a.
to take the plunder and to take prey; to turn your hand against the waste places that are inhabited, and against the people who are gathered out of the nations, who have gotten livestock and goods, who dwell in the middle of the earth.’
13 Moun peyi Cheba ak moun peyi Dedan ansanm ak kòmèsan ki soti nan peyi Tasis yo ak lòt peyi nan vwazinaj yo pral mande ou: Eske se pou ou pran tou sa moun yo genyen kifè ou vin atake yo la a? Eske se pou piye ou sanble tout lame sa a? Eske ou soti pou devalize tou sa yo genyen ki fèt an lò ak an ajan, pou ou pran bèt yo ak byen yo, lèfini pou ou bwote tou sa ou pran al lakay ou?
Sheba, Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all its young lions, will ask you, ‘Have you come to take the plunder? Have you assembled your company to take the prey, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’”’
14 Se poutèt sa, nonm o, bay mesaj mwen an! Ale di Gòg konsa men sa mwen menm Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di li: Koulye a pèp Izrayèl la, pèp mwen an, ap viv ak kè poze san ankenn danje, se lè sa a wava bay kò ou mouvman.
“Therefore, son of man, prophesy, and tell Gog, ‘The Lord GOD says: “In that day when my people Israel dwells securely, will you not know it?
15 W'ap kite kote ou ye a, nan pwent nò a, w'ap vini ak yon gwo lame sòlda ou ranmase nan mitan anpil nasyon, yo tout moute sou chwal yo.
You will come from your place out of the uttermost parts of the north, you, and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army.
16 Ou pral tonbe sou pèp Izrayèl mwen an tankou yon van tanpèt k'ap pase sou tout peyi a. Lè lè a va rive, m'ap voye ou anvayi peyi mwen an pou m' ka fè lòt nasyon yo konnen ki moun mwen ye, pou yo rekonèt se yon Bondye apa mwen ye lè y'a wè travay ou menm Gòg, ou pral fè pou mwen an.
You will come up against my people Israel as a cloud to cover the land. It will happen in the latter days that I will bring you against my land, that the nations may know me when I am sanctified in you, Gog, before their eyes.”
17 Se sou ou mwen t'ap pale nan tan lontan lè mwen te sèvi ak pwofèt pèp Izrayèl yo, sèvitè m' yo, pou m' te fè yo konnen mwen gen pou m' te voye yon moun vin atake yo lè jou a va vini. Se Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “Are you he of whom I spoke in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days for years that I would bring you against them?
18 Seyè sèl Mèt la pale, li di konsa: -Jou Gòg pral anvayi peyi Izrayèl la, kòlè m' ap moute m'.
It will happen in that day, when Gog comes against Eretz-Israel,” says the Lord GOD, “that my wrath will come up into my nostrils.
19 M'ap fè gwo kòlè, m'ap move. Mwen sèmante jou sa a, pral gen yon sèl tranblemanntè nan peyi Izrayèl la.
For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath I have spoken. Surely in that day there will be a great shaking in Eretz-Israel,
20 Pwenson nan lanmè, zwezo nan syèl, bèt nan bwa, bèt k'ap trennen sou vant, tout moun ki rete sou latè pral tranble paske y'ap pè m'. Mòn yo pral anfale, falèz yo pral vide desann. Tout miray yo pral tonbe atè.
so that the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, the animals of the field, all creeping things who creep on the earth, and all the men who are on the surface of the earth will shake at my presence. Then the mountains will be thrown down, the steep places will fall, and every wall will fall to the ground.
21 Mwen pral voye tout kalite malè sou Gòg pou fè li pè. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki pale. Sòlda li yo, yonn pral touye lòt ak nepe yo.
I will call for a sword against him to all my mountains,” says the Lord GOD. “Every man’s sword will be against his brother.
22 M'ap pini l', m'ap voye maladi sou li, m'ap mete san l' deyò. Mwen pral voye gwo lapli avèk lagrèl, dife ak souf sou li, sou lame li a ak sou tout nasyon ki kanpe avè l' yo.
I will enter into judgement with him with pestilence and with blood. I will rain on him, on his hordes, and on the many peoples who are with him, torrential rains with great hailstones, fire, and sulphur.
23 Se konsa m'ap fè tout nasyon yo konnen jan mwen gen pouvwa, jan mwen se yon Bondye apa. Lè sa a, m'a fè tout nasyon yo konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
I will magnify myself and sanctify myself, and I will make myself known in the eyes of many nations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”’
