< Ezekyèl 24 >
1 Ankò pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen, nan nevyèm ane, nan dizyèm mwa a, nan dizyèm jou nan mwa a, e te di:
Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Fis a lòm, ekri non a jou a, jou sa a menm. Wa Babylone nan te vin mete syèj sou Jérusalem nan menm jou sa a.
"Son of man, write the name of the day, even of this same day: the king of Babylon drew close to Jerusalem this same day.
3 Pale yon parabòl a kay rebèl la pou di yo: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Mete chodyè a sou difè a. Mete l, e anplis, vide dlo ladann.
Utter a parable to the rebellious house, and tell them, 'Thus says the LORD, "Set on the caldron, set it on, and also pour water into it:
4 Mete mòso yo ladann, tout bon mòso yo: kwis ak zepòl la. Plen li ak zo byen chwazi yo.
gather its pieces into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.
5 Pran mouton ki pi byen chwazi nan bann nan, e anplis, mete pil bwa anba chodyè a. Fè l bouyi fò. Anplis, fè bouyi zo ki ladann yo nèt.”
Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile of wood for the bones under the caldron; make it boil well; yes, let its bones be boiled in its midst."'
6 “‘Pou sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Malè a peyi sanglan sila a, a chodyè nan sila gen lawouy ladann l! Lawouy la ki pa sòti ladann l! Retire ladann mòso pa mòso, san menm tire oso.
"Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Woe to the bloody city, to the caldron whose rust is in it, and whose rust is not gone out of it. Take out of it piece after piece; No lot is fallen on it.
7 “‘“Paske san fanm nan vèse se nan mitan l. Li te mete l sou wòch vid la. Li pa t vide li atè a, pou kouvri li ak pousyè.
For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it on the bare rock; she didn't pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust.
8 Pou l kapab koze gwo chalè ak kòlè k ap pran vanjans, Mwen te mete san li sou wòch vid la, pou li kab pa kouvri.”
That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood on the bare rock, that it should not be covered.'
9 “‘Akoz sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Malè a vil sanglan sila a! Anplis, Mwen menm, Mwen va fè pil la gwo.
"Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Woe to the bloody city. I also will make the pile great.
10 Ogmante bwa a. Byen ranje dife a. Bouyi chè vyann nan byen. Mele epis ladann e kite zo yo vin brile.
Pile on the wood, make the fire hot, boil the meat well, and mix in the spices, and let the bones be burned up.
11 Epi mete li vid sou chabon limen li an pou li ka byen cho, pou bwonz li an kapab gen koulè wouj pou tout salte li yo kapab vin fann ladann, jiskaske lawouy li a fin manje nèt.
Then set it empty on its coals, that it may be hot, and its bronze may burn, and that its filthiness may be molten in it, that its rust may be consumed.
12 Fi a te fè M fatige ak travay di ke M fè; malgre sa, gwo lawouy li a pa t kite li. Kite lawouy li a rete nan dife a!
She has wearied herself with toil; yet her great rust doesn't go forth out of her; her rust doesn't go forth by fire.
13 “‘“Nan salte ou a se tout zak ki lèd yo. Akoz mwen ta netwaye ou, malgre sa, ou pa pwòp; ou p ap vin pwòp de salte ou yo jiskaske Mwen fè chalè kòlè Mwen an sou ou poze.
In your filthiness is lewdness: because I have cleansed you and you weren't cleansed, you shall not be cleansed from your filthiness any more, until I have caused my wrath toward you to rest.
14 “‘“Mwen, SENYÈ a, Mwen te pale. Sa ap vini e Mwen va aji. Mwen p ap ralanti e Mwen p ap gen pitye ni mwen p ap gen regrè. Selon zak ou yo, Mwen va jije ou,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.’”
I, the LORD, have spoken it: it shall happen, and I will do it: I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to your ways and according to your deeds I will judge you,' says the LORD."
15 Konsa, pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen e te di:
Also the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
16 “Fis a lòm, gade byen, Mwen prèt pou retire sou ou dezi zye ou yo ak yon sèl kou; men ou p ap plenyen, ni ou p ap kriye, ni dlo p ap vini nan zye ou.
"Son of man, look, I will take away from you the desire of your eyes with a stroke: yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, neither shall your tears run down.
17 Plenn nan gòj san fè bri. Pa fè dèy pou mò. Mare moso twal long ou nan tèt ou, mete soulye nan pye ou. Pa kouvri bouch ou e pa manje pen fè dèy a.”
Sigh, but not aloud, make no mourning for the dead; bind your headdress on you, and put your shoes on your feet, and do not cover your lips, and do not eat men's bread."
18 Konsa, mwen te pale ak pèp la nan maten an, e nan aswè, madanm mwen te mouri. Konsa, nan maten an, mwen te fè jan yo te kòmande mwen an.
So I spoke to the people in the morning; and at even my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.
19 Pèp la te mande m: “Èske ou p ap di nou kisa sa vle di ke ou ap aji konsa?”
The people said to me, "Won't you tell us what these things are to us, that you do so?"
20 Epi mwen te di yo: “Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
Then I said to them, "The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
21 ‘Pale ak lakay Israël: “Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Gade byen, Mwen prèt pou pwofane sanktyè Mwen an, ògèy a pouvwa nou an, dezi a zye nou, e plezi a nanm nou. Epi fis ak fi nou yo, ke nou te kite dèyè yo; yo va tonbe pa nepe.
'Speak to the house of Israel, "Thus says the LORD: Look, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pities; and your sons and your daughters whom you have left behind shall fall by the sword.
22 Nou va fè jan mwen te fè a. Nou p ap kouvri bouch nou, ni nou p ap manje pen fè dèy a.
You shall do as I have done: you shall not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of men.
23 Tiban nou va sou tèt nou e soulye nou nan pye nou. Nou p ap fè dèy, ni nou p ap kriye; men nou va plenyen nan inikite nou yo e nou va plenyen youn bay lòt.
Your turbans shall be on your heads, and your shoes on your feet: you shall not mourn nor weep; but you shall pine away in your iniquities, and moan one toward another.
24 Konsa, Ézéchiel va vin yon sign pou nou, selon tout sa ke li menm te fè, nou va fè yo. Lè sa rive, alò nou va konnen ke Mwen se Senyè BONDYE a.’”’”
Thus Ezekiel shall be a sign to you; according to all that he has done, you will do. When this comes, then you will know that I am the LORD."'"
25 “Pou ou menm, fis a lòm, èske sa p ap nan jou a, lè M ap retire fòs yo nan men yo, lajwa fyète yo, dezi a zye yo e plezi a kè yo, fis ak fi pa yo,
"You, son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their heart, their sons and their daughters,
26 pou nan jou sila a, sila ki chape a va vin kote ou ak enfòmasyon pou zòrèy ou?
that in that day he who escapes shall come to you, to cause you to hear it with your ears?
27 Nan jou sa a, bouch ou va vin louvri a sila ki te chape a, ou va pale, e ou p ap bèbè ankò. Konsa, ou va vin yon sign pou yo, e yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”
In that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped, and you shall speak, and be no more mute: so you will be a sign to them; and they shall know that I am the LORD."
