Oze 5
1 Koute sa byen, nou menm prèt yo! Pare zòrèy nou, nou menm pitit Izrayèl yo! Louvri zòrèy nou, nou menm ki fanmi wa a! Se nou menm y'ap jije koulye a. Nou tounen yon pyèj sou mòn Mispa. nou tounen yon pèlen yo mete sou mòn Tabò.
O ye Priestes, heare this, and hearken ye, O house of Israel, and giue ye eare, O house of the King: for iudgement is towarde you, because you haue bene a snare on Mizpah, and a net spred vpon Tabor.
2 Moun k'ap fè mechanste yo al twò lwen. Se mwen menm k'ap pini yo tout.
Yet they were profounde, to decline to slaughter, though I haue bene a rebuker of them all.
3 Depi lontan mwen konnen moun Efrayim yo. Pou moun Izrayèl yo menm, nanpwen anyen sou yo mwen pa konnen. Moun Efrayim yo lage kò yo nan fè tankou jennès, yo kite m' pou lòt bondye. Moun Izrayèl yo menm mete tèt yo nan kondisyon yo pa ka fè sèvis pou mwen.
I knowe Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for nowe, O Ephraim thou art become an harlot, and Israel is defiled.
4 Avèk tou sa pèp la ap fè a, yo pa ka tounen vin jwenn Bondye yo a ankò. Yo pran nan sèvi zidòl. Yo pa konnen Seyè a ankò!
They will not giue their mindes to turne vnto their God: for the spirit of fornication is in the middes of them, and they haue not knowen the Lord.
5 Sa pèp Izrayèl la ap fè nan awogans li, se sa k'ap lakòz yo kondannen l'. Avèk peche moun Izrayèl ak moun Efrayim yo ap plede fè yo, y'ap bite, y'ap tonbe. Menm moun peyi Jida yo ap bite ansanm ak yo tou.
And the pride of Israel doth testifie to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquitie: Iudah also shall fall with them.
6 Y'a pran mouton ak bèf pou fè ofrann pou Seyè a. Y'a chache l', men yo p'ap jwenn li, paske li wete kò l' sou yo.
They shall goe with their sheepe, and with their bullockes to seeke the Lord: but they shall not finde him: for he hath withdrawne himselfe from them.
7 Yo pa t' kenbe pawòl yo ak Seyè a, yo twonpe l'. Yo fè yon bann timoun ki pa janm konnen Bondye. Nan yon sèl mwa, Bondye ap detwi yo nèt ansanm ak tout jaden yo.
They haue transgressed against the Lord: for they haue begotte strange children: now shall a moneth deuoure them with their portions.
8 Kònen klewon an lavil Gibeya! Sonnen avètisman an lavil Rama! Bay rèl lavil Betavenn pou moun yo pare pou lagè! Leve pye nou, moun Benjamen! Lènmi dèyè nou.
Blowe ye the trumpet in Gibeah, and the shaume in Ramah: crie out at Beth-auen, after thee, O Beniamin.
9 Jou pou yo pini moun Efrayim yo rive. Y'ap fini nèt avèk yo. M'ap kanpe nan mitan tout branch fanmi Izrayèl yo, m'ap fè yo konnen sa ki gen pou rive vre.
Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel haue I caused to knowe the trueth.
10 Seyè a di ankò: Chèf peyi Jida yo fè menm bagay ak moun k'ap deplase bòn pou antre sou tè moun. M'ap move sou yo, m'ap vare sou yo tankou lavalas k'ap desann!
The princes of Iudah were like them that remoue the bounde: therefore will I powre out my wrath vpon them like water.
11 Moun Efrayim yo ap soufri anba moun k'ap peze yo a. Yo pèdi tè ki pou yo dapre lalwa, paske yo te soti pou yo te swiv moun ki pa gen anyen pou bay.
Ephraim is oppressed, and broken in iudgement, because he willingly walked after the commandement.
12 M'ap fini ak moun Efrayim yo, m'ap manje yo tankou poudbwa manje bwa. M'ap disparèt moun peyi Jida yo, m'ap fè yo tounen pouriti.
Therefore wil I be vnto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Iudah as a rottennesse.
13 Moun Efrayim yo wè jan peyi a te malad, moun Jida yo te wè eta malenng peyi a. Lè sa a, moun Izrayèl yo kouri al mande sekou nan peyi Lasiri, yo voye moun al mande gran wa a sekou. Men, gran wa sa a pa ka ban nou gerizon, ni li p'ap ka geri malenng nou yo.
When Ephraim sawe his sickenes, and Iudah his wound, then went Ephraim vnto Asshur, and sent vnto King Iareb: yet coulde hee not heale you, nor cure you of your wound.
14 M'ap atake moun Efrayim yo tankou yon lyon. M'ap tonbe sou moun Jida yo tankou yon jenn ti lyon. Wi, se mwen k'ap dechire yo an miyèt moso. Apre sa, m'ap kite yo, m'ap depòte yo byen lwen peyi yo. Pesonn p'ap ka sove yo anba men m'.
For I will be vnto Ephraim as a lyon, and as a lyons whelpe to the house of Iudah: I, euen I will spoyle, and goe away: I will take away, and none shall rescue it.
15 M'ap vire do m' tounen lakay mwen jouk y'a rekonèt fòt yo. Se lè sa a y'a chache m'. Wi, lè y'a wè jan y'ap soufri a, y'a mete chache m'.
I will go, and returne to my place, til they acknowledge their fault, and seeke me: in their affliction they will seeke me diligently.
