Ezekyèl 5
1 Seyè a di mwen: -Nonm o! Pran yon kouto byen file, tankou razwa kwafè, wete tout bab nan figi ou ak tout cheve nan tèt ou. Lèfini, pran yon balans pou peze cheve ou koupe yo, w'a fè yo fè twa pil menm fòs.
And you, son of man, take you a sword sharper than a barber's razor; you shall procure it for yourself, and shall bring it upon your head, and upon your beard: and you shall take a pair of scales, and shall separate the hair.
2 Lè y'a sispann sènen lavil la, w'a boule yon premye pil nan mitan lavil la. W'a pran yon dezyèm pil, w'a koupe l' ti moso ti moso avèk nepe a pandan w'ap fè tou lavil la pa deyò. Dènye pil cheve a menm, w'a voye l' anlè pou van pote yo ale. Mwen menm, m'a kouri dèyè yo ak nepe mwen.
A fourth part you shall burn in the fire in the midst of the city, at the fulfilment of the days of the siege: and you shall take a fourth part, and burn it up in the midst of it: and a fourth part you shall cut with a sword round about it: and a fourth part you shall scatter to the wind; and I will draw out a sword after them.
3 W'a sere yon ponyen cheve, w'a koud li nan woulèt rad ou.
And you shall take thence a few in number, and shall wrap them in the fold of your garment.
4 Lèfini, w'a pran de twa branch cheve nan sa ou te sere yo, w'a voye yo jete nan dife pou yo boule. Dife a ap gaye nan tout peyi Izrayèl la.
And you shall take of these again, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them up with fire: from thence shall come forth fire; and you shall say to the whole house of Israel,
5 Men sa Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa, di ankò: -Gade lavil Jerizalèm! Mwen te mete l' kanpe nan mitan latè ak tout lòt nasyon yo bò kote l'.
Thus says the Lord; This is Jerusalem: I have set her and the countries round about her in the midst of the nations.
6 Men, Jerizalèm revòlte kont kòmandman ak lòd mwen yo. Li fè pi mal pase lòt nasyon ki bò kote l' yo. Moun li yo derefize swiv prensip mwen te ba yo. Yo pa fè sa m' te ba yo lòd fè a.
And you shall declare mine ordinances to the lawless one from out of the nations; and my statutes [to the sinful one] of the countries round about her: because they have rejected mine ordinances, and have not walked in my statutes.
7 Se poutèt sa, nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, di nou: Nou pa swiv lòd mwen yo, nou pa fè sa m' te mande nou fè. Konsa, nou fè pi mal pase moun lòt nasyon ki bò kote nou yo. Nou pa menm swiv lòd moun lòt nasyon yo gen lakay yo.
Therefore thus says the Lord, Because your occasion [for sin has been taken] from the nations round about you, and you have not walked in my statutes, nor kept mine ordinances, nay, you have not even done according to the ordinances of the nations round about you; therefore thus says the Lord;
8 Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè a, Bondye nan syèl la, di ou: M'ap leve dèyè ou tou, mwen pral pini ou devan tout lòt nasyon yo.
Behold, I am against you, and I will execute judgement in the midst of you in the sight of the nations.
9 N'ap fè yon bann bagay mwen pa vle wè menm. Se poutèt sa m'ap pini lavil Jerizalèm jan mwen poko janm pini l', jan mwen p'ap janm pini l' ankò.
And I will do in you things which I have not done, and the like of which I will not do again, for all your abominations.
10 Se poutèt sa, nan lavil Jerizalèm papa ak manman va manje pwòp pitit yo, pitit va manje papa ak manman yo. M'ap pini nou, m'ap gaye rès moun ki va rete yo toupatou.
Therefore the fathers shall eat [their] children in the midst of you, and children shall eat [their] fathers; and I will execute judgements in you, and I will scatter all that are left of you to every wind.
11 Se poutèt sa, jan nou konnen mwen vivan vre a, se mwen menm Seyè, Sèl Mèt la, k'ap pale: Paske nou derespekte tanp mwen an ak tout vye bagay degoutan ansanm ak bann bagay mwen pa vle wè menm nou te fè ladan l' yo, mwen fè sèman, mwen menm tou m'ap san pitye pou nou. M'ap voye nou jete, mwen p'ap kite nou yonn chape.
Therefore, [as] I live, says the Lord; surely, because you have defiled my holy things with all your abominations, I also will reject you; mine eye shall not spare, and I will have no mercy.
12 Pèp la ap fè twa pòsyon, yon pòsyon pral mouri anba maladi ak grangou nan lavil la, yon lòt pòsyon pral mouri nan lagè lòt bò miray ranpa lavil la. M'ap gaye rès la nan tout direksyon. Lèfini, m'ap kouri dèyè yo ak nepe.
A fourth part of you shall be cut off by pestilence, and a fourth part of you shall be consumed in the midst of you with famine: and [as for another] fourth part of you, I will scatter them to every wind; and a fourth part of you shall fall by sword round about you, and I will draw out a sword after them.
13 M'a tire revanj mwen, m'ap krase yo dèske yo fè m' fè kòlè, m'ap move sou yo jouk mwen pa kapab ankò. Lè sa a, y'a rekonèt se mwen menm Seyè a ki te pale konsa ak yo, paske yo te pouse m' fè jalouzi, mwen te fache sou yo jouk mwen pa kapab ankò.
And my wrath and mine anger shall be accomplished upon them: and you shall know that I the Lord have spoken in my jealousy, when I have accomplished mine anger upon them.
14 M'ap fè nou tounen yon dezè nan mitan tout lòt peyi yo, yon wont pou moun k'ap pase bò kote nou ye a.
And I will make you desolate, and your daughters round about you, in the sight of every one that passes through.
15 Lè m'a fè kòlè a, lè m'a move anpil sou nou an, lè m'a pini nou rèd mare jan mwen te vle l' la, m'ap avili nou, m'ap fè nou tounen yon wont. N'a sèvi yon avètisman pou tout nasyon ki bò kote nou yo, y'a soti pè lè y'a wè sa ki rive nou. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
And you shall be mourned over and miserable amongst the nations round about you, when I have executed judgements in you in the vengeance of my wrath. I the Lord have spoken.
16 M'ap koupe viv nou, m'ap kite nou mouri grangou. Nou pral santi doulè grangou a tankou si se flèch yo voye sou nou pou touye nou.
And when I have sent against them shafts of famine, then they shall be consumed, and I will break the strength of your bread.
17 M'ap voye grangou ak bèt nan bwa k'ap touye tout pitit nou yo. Move maladi pral tonbe sou nou, y'ap mete san nou deyò. M'ap voye lènmi vin fè nou lagè. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki pale.
So I will send forth against you famine and evil beasts, and I will take vengeance upon you; and pestilence and blood shall pass through upon you; and I will bring a sword upon you round about. I the Lord have spoken.
