Ezekyèl 26
1 Alò, nan onzyèm ane, nan premye nan mwa a, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
And in the eleuenth yeere, in the first day of the moneth, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
2 “Fis a lòm, akoz Tyr te di konsènan Jérusalem: ‘Ha ha! Gade byen, pòtay a pèp yo fin kraze; koulye a l ap remet nan men m. Mwen va vin ranpli koulye a akoz li devaste nèt;’
Sonne of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Ierusalem, Aha, the gate of the people is broken: it is turned vnto me: for seeing she is desolate, I shall be replenished,
3 akoz sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Gade byen, Mwen vin kont ou, O Tyr, e Mwen va mennen fè monte anpil nasyon kont ou, tankou lanmè mennen lanm li.
Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, Beholde, I come against thee, O Tyrus, and I will bring vp many nations against thee, as the sea mounteth vp with his waues.
4 Yo va detwi miray a Tyr e demoli tou wo li yo. Anplis, Mwen va grate retire ranblè li yo, e fè l vin yon wòch vid.
And they shall destroy the walles of Tyrus and breake downe her towres: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rocke.
5 Li va vin yon kote pou ouvri filè nan mitan lanmè a, paske Mwen te pale,’ deklare Senyè BONDYE a. ‘Konsa, li va vin piyaj pou nasyon yo.
Thou shalt be for the spreading of nettes in the middes of the sea: for I haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God, and it shalbe a spoile to ye nations.
6 Anplis, fi li yo ki lòtbò pi gwo teren an va vin touye pa nepe e yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.’
And her daughters which are in the fielde, shall be slaine by the sworde, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
7 “Paske konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Gade byen, Mwen va mennen sou Tyr soti nan nò Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, wadèwa a, ak cheval, cha, kavalye ak yon gwo lame.
For thus sayth the Lord God, Behold, I will bring vpon Tyrus Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, a King of Kings from the North, with horses and with charets, and with horsemen, with a multitude and much people.
8 Li va touye fi ou yo sou gwo chan an ak nepe. Li va fè miray syèj kont ou, fè monte yon ran kont ou e fè monte yon gwo boukliye kont ou.
He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the fielde, and he shall make a fort against thee, and cast a mount against thee, and lift vp the buckler against thee.
9 Ak gwo mòso bwa fèt pou kraze a, ke l ap dirije kont miray ou yo, e ak rach li yo li va demoli tou wo ou yo.
He shall set engins of warre before him against thy walles, and with his weapons breake downe thy towres.
10 Akoz gwo fòs kantite cheval li yo, pousyè leve la yo va kouvri ou. Miray ou yo va souke ak bri kavalye, ak charyo ak cha yo lè l ap antre nan pòtay ou yo tankou lè moun ap antre nan yon vil lè yo fin fè brèch ladann.
The dust of his horses shall couer thee, for their multitude: thy walles shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheeles, and of the charets, when he shall enter into thy gates as into the entrie of a citie that is broken downe.
11 Ak zago cheval li yo, li va foule tout lari ou yo nèt. Li va touye moun ou yo ak nepe. Gwo pilye lafòs ou yo va tonbe atè.
With the hooues of his horses shall he treade downe all thy streetes: he shall slay thy people by the sworde, and the pillars of thy strength shall fall downe to the ground.
12 Anplis, yo va fè piyaj a tout richès ak machandiz ou yo. Yo va kraze mi ou yo, detwi bèl kay ou yo, e jete wòch ak, poto bwa yo ak tout ranblè ou yo nan dlo.
And they shall robbe thy riches, and spoyle thy marchandise, and they shall breake downe thy walles, and destroy thy pleasant houses, and they shall cast thy stones and thy timber and thy dust into the middes of the water.
13 Konsa, Mwen va fè son a chante ou yo vin sispann, e son ap ou yo p ap tande ankò.
Thus will I cause the sounde of thy songs to cease, and the sound of thine harpes shall be no more heard.
14 Mwen va fè ou yon wòch vid. Ou va sèvi kon yon kote pou ouvri filè. Ou p ap bati ankò, paske Mwen, SENYÈ a te pale’, deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
I wil lay thee like the top of a rocke: thou shalt be for a spreading of nets: thou shalt be built no more: for I the Lord haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God.
15 “Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a a Tyr: ‘Èske peyi kot lanmè yo pa ta souke menm nan son chit ou a lè sila ki blese yo plenn nan gòj yo, lè masak fèt nan mitan nou?
Thus sayth the Lord God to Tyrus, Shall not the yles tremble at the sounde of thy fall? and at the crie of the wounded, when they shall be slaine and murthered in the middes of thee?
16 Nan lè sa a, tout prens lanmè yo va desann soti nan twòn yo retire wòb yo, e menm retire bèl vètman bwodri yo. Yo va abiye tèt yo ak men yo k ap tranble; yo va chita atè, ap tranble tout tan e vin efreye akoz de ou.
Then all the princes of the sea shall come downe from their thrones: they shall lay away their robes, and put off their broydered garments, and shall clothe themselues with astonishment: they shall sitte vpon the ground, and be astonished at euery moment, and be amased at thee.
17 Yo va leve yon lamantasyon sou ou e di ou: “Gade kijan ou vin peri, O sila ki te plen moun nan, Soti sou lanmè yo, O gwo vil byen renome ki te pwisan sou lanmè, li menm ak tout moun ki te rete ladann yo, ki te enpoze gwo laperèz li sou tout abitan li yo!”
And they shall take vp a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, Howe art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of the sea men, the renoumed citie which was strong in the sea, both she and her inhabitants, which cause their feare to be on all that haunt therein!
18 Koulye a, peyi bò lanmè yo va tranble nan jou chit ou a. Wi, peyi kot ki bò lanmè yo va vin etone jiskaske yo tranble akoz ou vin disparèt.’
Nowe shall the yles be astonished in the day of thy fall: yea, the yles that are in the sea, shall be troubled at thy departure.
19 “Paske konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Lè Mwen fè ou vin yon vil dezole, kon vil ki pa gen moun yo, lè Mwen mennen pwofondè a sou ou pou gwo dlo vin kouvri ou,
For thus saith the Lord God, When I shall make thee a desolate citie, like ye cities that are not inhabited, and when I shall bring the deepe vpon thee, and great waters shall couer thee,
20 konsa, Mwen va fè ou desann ak sila ki desann nan twou fòs la, al jwenn pèp ansyen yo. Mwen va fè ou rete nan pati ki piba sou tè a, tankou ansyen kote dezole yo, ak sila ki desann nan twou fòs la, pou ou pa menm gen moun ki abite nan ou. Men Mwen va mete laglwa nan peyi a vivan yo.
When I shall cast thee downe with them that descende into the pitte, with the people of olde time, and shall set thee in the lowe partes of the earth, like the olde ruines, with them, I say, which goe downe to the pitte, so that thou shalt not be inhabited, and I shall shewe my glory in the land of the liuing,
21 Mwen va mennen gwo laperèz sou ou e ou p ap egziste ankò. Malgre y ap chache ou, yo p ap janm jwenn ou ankò’, deklare Senyè BONDYE a.”
I will bring thee to nothing, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for, yet shalt thou neuer be found againe, sayth the Lord God.
