Ezekyèl 13
1 Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying:
2 “Fis a lòm, pwofetize kont pwofèt Israël ki pwofetize. Di a sila kap pwofetize pawòl ki soti nan pwòp enspirasyon pa yo, ‘Koute pawòl SENYÈ a:
Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say unto them that prophesy out of their own heart, Hear ye the word of Jehovah.
3 Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Malè a pwofèt san konprann k ap swiv pwòp lespri pa yo, e ki pa t vrèman wè anyen.
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 O Israël, pwofèt nou yo te tankou rena pami pil mazi ki fin kraze.
O Israel, thy prophets have been like foxes in desert places.
5 Nou pa t antre nan brèch yo, ni nou pa t bati yon miray pou antoure lakay Israël pou l ta ka kanpe nan batay nan jou SENYÈ a.
Ye have not gone up into the breaches, nor made up the fence for the house of Israel, to stand in the battle in the day of Jehovah.
6 Yo wè tout sa ki fo, ak divinò k ap bay manti yo, k ap di: ‘Pawòl SENYÈ a deklare’, lè se pa SENYÈ a ki te voye yo. Malgre sa, yo gen espwa ke pawòl yo va vin akonpli.
They have seen vanity and lying divination, that say, Jehovah saith! and Jehovah hath not sent them; and they make [them] to hope that the word will be fulfilled.
7 Èske nou pa t fè yon fo vizyon, e pale ak lang ki t ap bay manti lè nou te di: ‘SENYÈ a deklare’, men se pa Mwen ki te pale a?”’”
Have ye not seen a vain vision, and spoken a lying divination, when ye say, Jehovah saith; and I have not spoken?
8 Akoz sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Akoz nou te pale sa ki fo, e te wè yon manti; akoz sa, gade byen, Mwen kont nou,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because ye speak vanity, and have seen lies, therefore behold, I am against you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
9 “Konsa, men Mwen va kont pwofèt yo ki fè fo vizyon yo; ki pale divinasyon ki manti yo. Yo p ap gen plas nan konsèy a pèp Mwen an ni yo p ap ekri nan rejis lakay Israël yo. Ni yo p ap antre nan peyi Israël la. Konsa, nou ka konnen ke Mwen se Senyè BONDYE a.”
And my hand shall be against the prophets that see vanity and that divine lies: they shall not be in the council of my people, neither shall they be written in the register of the house of Israel, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord Jehovah.
10 “‘Akoz, anverite yo te egare pèp Mwen an lè yo te di: “Lapè,” lè pa t gen lapè. Lè nenpòt moun bati yon miray, gade byen, yo fè l randwi ak lacho.
Because, yea because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace! and there is no peace; and one buildeth up a wall, and lo, they daub it with untempered [mortar] —
11 Donk, pale a sila ki randwi li ak lacho yo, ke li va tonbe. Yon inondasyon lapli va vini, e nou menm, o gran lagrèl, va tonbe. Yon van vyolan va pete l.
say unto them which daub it with untempered [mortar] that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing rain, and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall, and a stormy wind shall burst forth.
12 Gade byen, lè miray la fin tonbe, èske yo p ap mande nou: “Kote lacho ke nou te sèvi nan randwi li a?”
And lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where is the daubing with which ye have daubed [it]?
13 “‘Pou sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Mwen va fè yon van vyolan vin pete nan kòlè Mwen. Anplis, va genyen nan mekontantman Mwen, yon inondasyon lapli ak lagrèl pou konsonmen li nèt ak gwo laraj.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will cause to burst forth a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing rain in mine anger, and hail-stones in fury for utter destruction.
14 Konsa, Mwen va demoli miray ke nou te kouvri ak randisaj la jis rive atè, jis fondasyon li yo fin ekspoze nèt. Epi lè l tonbe, nou va vin manje nan mitan li. Epi nou va vin konprann ke se Mwen ki SENYÈ a.
And I will break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered [mortar], and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered; and it shall fall, and ye shall be destroyed in the midst thereof; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
15 Se konsa, Mwen va pase kòlè Mwen sou miray la ak sou sila ki te fè randisaj ak lacho sou li yo. Mwen va di nou, ‘Miray la pa la ankò, ni bòs randisaj yo pa la ankò.
And I will accomplish my fury upon the wall, and upon them that daub it with untempered [mortar], and will say unto you, The wall is no [more], neither they that daubed it,
16 Konsa ak pwofèt Israël sa yo ki pwofetize a Jérusalem yo, ki te fè vizyon lapè pou li yo, lè pat gen lapè a,’” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
the prophets of Israel who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and who see a vision of peace for her, and there is no peace, saith the Lord Jehovah.
17 Alò, ou menm, fis a lòm, mete figi ou kont fi a pèp ou yo, k ap pwofetize apati pwòp enspirasyon yo. Se pou ou pwofetize kont yo,
And thou, son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, who prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy against them,
18 pou di: “Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Malè a fanm ki koud braslè kon wanga sou tout ponyèt yo e fè vwal yo pou tèt moun tout wotè, pou fè lachas moun! Èske nou va chase nanm a pèp Mwen an, men konsève nanm a lòt yo pou nou menm?
and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe unto the women that sew pillows for all wrists, and that make veils for the head [of persons] of every stature to catch souls! Will ye catch the souls of my people, and will ye save your own souls alive?
19 Pou yon men ki plen ak lòj ak kèk grenn pen, nou te degrade Mwen a pèp Mwen an, pou fè lantre nan lanmò kèk nanm ki pa ta dwe mouri, e kenbe vivan lòt ki pa ta dwe viv, nan fè manti ou a pèp Mwen an ki koute manti.’”
And will ye profane me among my people for handfuls of barley and for morsels of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that listen to lying?
20 Akoz sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen kont braslè wanga nou yo, avèk sila nou chache lavi moun, tankou se zwazo yo. Mwen va rache yo nan bra nou. Epi Mwen va lage nanm sa yo lib, menm nanm de sila ke nou kapte, tankou se zwazo yo.
Wherefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against your pillows, that the souls which ye catch by their means may fly away; and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, the souls that ye catch, that they may fly away.
21 Anplis, Mwen va chire vwal nou yo, Mwen va delivre pèp Mwen an soti nan men nou, e yo p ap nan men nou ankò pou fè viktim lachas. Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.
And I will tear your veils and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
22 Akoz nou te dekouraje moun ladwati a lè Mwen pa t fè yo trist; epi nou te ankouraje mechan an pou l pa kite mechanste li, pou l sove,
Because with falsehood ye have grieved the heart of the righteous, whom I have not made sad; and have strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, to save his life:
23 pou sa, nou p ap fè fo vizyon ankò, ni pratike divinasyon. Mwen va delivre pèp Mwen an sòti nan men nou. Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”
therefore ye shall no more see vanity, nor divine divinations; and I will deliver my people out of your hand: and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
