Ezekyèl 9
1 Apre sa, mwen tande Bondye pale byen fò nan zòrèy mwen. Li di konsa: -Pwoche non, nou tout ki pral pini lavil la. Pwoche ak zam nou nan men nou!
He cried also in my ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause them that have charge over the city to draw near, even every man with his destroying weapon in his hand.
2 Lamenm, sis gason parèt nan pòtay ki bay sou nò nan lakou tanp lan. Yo chak te gen yon zam nan men yo. Nan mitan yo te gen yon nonm ak yon rad twal fin tou blan sou li. Li te gen yon poban lank mare nan ren l'. Yo antre, yo kanpe bò lotèl an kwiv la.
And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lies toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side: and they went in, and stood beside the brazen altar.
3 Lè sa a, gwo bèl limyè ki make prezans Bondye pèp Izrayèl la soti anwo tèt bèt vivan yo kote l' te ye a, li deplase, li al rete nan papòt pou antre nan tanp lan. Seyè a rele nonm ak rad twal fin blan an ki te gen poban lank mare nan ren l' lan.
And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer’s inkhorn by his side;
4 Li di l' konsa: -Ale nan tout lavil Jerizalèm. Mete yon mak sou fwon tout moun w'a wè k'ap plenn, ki nan gwo lapenn pou tout vye bagay derespektan k'ap fèt nan lavil la.
And the LORD said to him, Go through the middle of the city, through the middle of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the middle thereof.
5 Mwen tande li di lòt mesye yo: -Mache dèyè l' nan tout lavil la. Epi touye! Pa gen pitye pou pesonn. Pa kite pesonn chape!
And to the others he said in my hearing, Go you after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have you pity:
6 Touye ni granmoun, ni jenn gason, ni jenn fi, ni fanm, ni timoun. Men, pa manyen moun ki gen mak sou fwon yo. Konmanse depi nan tanp mwen an. Yo konmanse ak chèf fanmi ki te kanpe nan Tanp lan.
Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man on whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.
7 Bondye di yo: -Derespekte Tanp lan! Plen lakou a kadav. Ale non! Se konsa yo konmanse touye moun nan lavil la.
And he said to them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go you forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.
8 Pandan yo t'ap touye moun yo, mwen te rete pou kont mwen. Mwen tonbe ajenou, mwen bese tèt mwen atè, mwen rele byen fò: -Wouy! Seyè Bondye sèl Mèt la, èske ou pral touye tout rès pèp Izrayèl la, paske nan kòlè ou ou soti pou pini lavil Jerizalèm?
And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and I was left, that I fell on my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord GOD! will you destroy all the residue of Israel in your pouring out of your fury on Jerusalem?
9 Li reponn mwen: -Moun peyi Izrayèl yo ansanm ak moun peyi Jida yo fè anpil wi! Se san k'ap koule toupatou nan peyi a. Lavil Jerizalèm plen moun k'ap fè lenjistis. Y'ap plede di mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen vire do bay peyi a, mwen pa wè yo.
Then said he to me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The LORD has forsaken the earth, and the LORD sees not.
10 Enben, mwen p'ap gen pitye pou yo, mwen p'ap fè pa yo. M'ap fè yo peye pou sa yo fè.
And as for me also, my eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will recompense their way on their head.
11 Apre sa, nonm ki te gen rad twal fin tou blan sou li a ak poban lank mare nan ren l' lan tounen. Li fè rapò l' bay Seyè a, li di l' konsa: -Mwen fè tou sa ou te ban m' lòd fè a.
And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as you have commanded me.
