Ezekyèl 8
1 Nan senkyèm jou sizyèm mwa nan sizyèm lanne depi yo te depòte pèp la, mwen te chita lakay mwen ansanm ak chèf pèp Jida yo ki te reyini lakay mwen. Mwen rete konsa mwen santi pouvwa Seyè a, Bondye Sèl Mèt la, desann sou mwen.
And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the ancients of Juda sat before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell there upon me.
2 Mwen leve je m' gade, mwen wè yon fòm ki te sanble ak yon moun. Depi nan ren l' desann, kò l' te tankou yon flanm dife. Depi nan ren l' moute, li te klere tankou kwiv byen poli.
And I saw, and behold a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins, and downward, fire: and from his loins, and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the appearance of amber.
3 Mwen wè l' lonje men l' tankou men yon moun, li pran m' nan cheve. Nan vizyon an, li leve m' byen wo nan syèl la, li mennen m' lavil Jerizalèm, devan pòtay anndan ki bay sou bò nò a, kote yo te mete yon estati zidòl ki te lakòz Bondye ankòlè.
And the likeness of a hand was put forth and took me by a lock of my head: and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the vision of God into Jerusalem, near the inner gate, that looked toward the north, where was set the idol of jealousy to provoke to jealousy.
4 La, mwen wè yon gwo bèl limyè ki te fè m' konprann se Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki te la, menm jan mwen te wè l' nan fon an.
And behold the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I had seen in the plain.
5 Bondye di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Vire je ou gade bò nan nò! Mwen vire je m' gade bò nan nò. Mwen wè toupre lotèl ki bò pòtay kote moun pase pou antre a, estati zidòl ki te lakòz Bondye ankòlè a.
And he said to me: Son of man, lift up thy eyes towards the way of the north. And I lifted up my eyes towards the way of the north: and behold on the north side of the gate of the altar the idol of jealousy in the very entry.
6 Bondye di m' ankò: -Nonm o! Eske ou wè sa y'ap fè? Gade tout bagay derespektan moun pèp Izrayèl yo ap plede fè pou yo fè m' kite tanp mwen an. Ou gen pou wè bagay ki pi mal pase sa toujou.
And he said to me: Son of man, dost thou see, thinkest thou, what these are doing, the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should depart far off from my sanctuary? and turn thee yet again and thou shalt see greater abominations.
7 Li pran m', li mennen m' nan pòtay ki bay sou lakou anndan an, li moutre m' yon twou nan miray la.
And he brought me in to the door of the court: and I saw, and behold a hole in the wall.
8 Li di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Fè yon gwo twou nan miray la. Mwen fè gwo twou a. Lèfini, mwen jwenn yon pòt.
And he said to me: Son of man, dig in the wall. And when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.
9 Li di m' konsa: -Louvri pòt la antre! Gade tout kalite vye bagay derespektan moun sa yo ap fè la a!
And he said to me: Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they commit here.
10 Mwen antre, mwen gade. Tout miray la nèt te kouvri ak pòtre koulèv, pòtre tout kalite bèt yo pa gen dwa manje ak pòtre lòt vye zidòl moun pèp Izrayèl yo ap sèvi.
And I went in and saw, and behold every form of creeping things, and of living creatures, the abomination, and all the idols of the house of Israel, were painted on the wall all round about.
11 Swasanndis nan chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo te kanpe la devan zidòl yo. Yonn ladan yo te Jazanya, pitit Chafan an. Yo chak te kenbe yon lansanswa nan men yo. Gwo lafimen lansan t'ap moute.
And seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel, and Jezonias the son of Saaphan stood in the midst of them, that stood before the pictures: and every one had a censer in his hand: and a cloud of smoke went up from the incense.
12 Bondye di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Eske ou wè sa chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo ap plede fè an kachèt? Yo rete ap fè sèvis nan yon chanm kay plen zidòl. Men eskiz yo bay: O wi! Bondye pa wè nou! Bondye vire do l' bay peyi a!
And he said to me: Surely thou seest. O son of man, what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every one in private in his chamber: for they say: The Lord seeth us not, the Lord hath forsaken the earth.
13 Apre sa, Seyè a di m' ankò: -Ou gen pou wè yo ap fè bagay ki pi derespektan toujou.
And he said to me: If thou turn thee again, thou shalt see greater abominations which these commit.
14 Lè sa a, li mennen m' bò pòtay nò tanp lan, li moutre m' yon bann fanm ki chita ap kenbe yon rèl lanmò pou zidòl yo rele Tamouz la.
And he brought me in by the door of the gate of the Lord’s house, which looked to the north: and behold women sat there mourning for Adonis.
15 Li di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Ou wè sa, pa vre? Ou gen pou ou wè gwo bagay pi derespektan ankò y'ap fè.
And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: but turn thee again: and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
16 Li mennen m' nan lakou anndan tanp lan. Mwen wè vennsenk nèg konsa kanpe bò pòt pou antre nan kote ki apa nèt pou Seyè a, nan mitan lotèl la ak galeri a. Yo te bay tanp lan do. Fas yo vire bò solèy leve. Yo bese tèt yo byen ba, y'ap fè sèvis pou solèy la k'ap leve.
And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord: and behold at the door of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men having their backs towards the temple of the Lord, and their faces to the east: and they adored towards the rising of the sun.
17 Seyè a di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Eske ou wè sa? Moun peyi Jida sa yo ap fè tout vye bagay derespektan y'ap plede fè yo. Y'ap mache fè mechanste nan tout peyi a. Men sa pa kont yo toujou, se pou yo vini jouk isit la nan tanp lan pou fè yo, pou yo fè m' pi move toujou. Men y'ap fè move jès pou derespekte m', yo mete yon ti branch bwa anba nen yo.
And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: is this a light thing to the house of Juda, that they should commit these abominations which they have committed here: because they have filled the land with iniquity, and have turned to provoke me to anger? and behold they put a branch to their nose.
18 Mwen menm tou mwen pral fè yo santi jan mwen move sou yo. Yo mèt rele byen fò nan zòrèy mwen. Mwen p'ap tande yo. Mwen p'ap gen pitye pou yo. Yo mèt rele jan yo vle nan zòrèy mwen, mwen p'ap pran priyè.
Therefore I also will deal with them in my wrath: my eye shall not spare them, neither will I shew mercy: and when they shall cry to my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.
