< Ezekyèl 30 >
1 Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote m ankò e te di:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
2 “Fis a lòm, pwofetize e di: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a, “Rele ‘Anmwey! Elas pou jou a!’
“Son of man, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Howl, Aah! For the day!
3 Paske jou a pwòch. Menm jou SENYÈ a pwòch. Li va yon jou nwaj, yon tan fènwa pou nasyon yo.
For a day [is] near, a day [is] near to YHWH! It is a time of cloud [over] the nations.
4 Yon nepe va rive sou Égypte e gwo doulè va rive Ethiopie, lè sila yo touye yo tonbe an Égypte. Yo va retire tout richès li yo e fondasyon li yo va fin demoli nèt.
And a sword has come into Egypt, And there has been great pain in Cush, In the falling of the wounded in Egypt, And they have taken its store, And its foundations have been broken down.
5 “‘“Ethiopie, Puth, Lud, tout Arabie, Cub, ak tout moun peyi ki nan gwoup aliyans yo va tonbe ak yo pa nepe.”
Cush, and Phut, and Lud, and all the mixture, and Chub, And the sons of the land of the covenant fall by sword with them,
6 “‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Anverite, sila ki sipòte Égypte yo va tonbe. Ògèy a pouvwa li a va tonbe. Soti nan Migdol jis rive Syène, yo va tonbe pa nepe,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
Thus said YHWH: And those supporting Egypt have fallen, And the arrogance of her strength has come down, From Migdol to Syene, they fall by sword in her, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
7 Yo va vin dezole nan mitan peyi ki dezole yo. Konsa, vil li yo va nan mitan vil k ap devaste yo.
And they have been desolated in the midst of desolate lands, And its cities are in the midst of cities [that are] laid waste.
8 Yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè M limen dife an Égypte la, e tout sila ki te ede l yo vin kraze nèt.
And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My giving fire against Egypt, And all her helpers have been broken.
9 “‘“Nan jou sa a, mesaje yo va ale soti devan Mwen sou bato pou entimide Ethiopie akoz lenpridans. Gwo doulè va vin sou yo menm jan ak jou Égypte la; paske gade byen, l ap vini!”
In that day messengers go forth from before Me in ships, To trouble confident Cush, And there has been great pain among them, As the day of Egypt, for behold, it has come.
10 “‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Anplis Mwen va fè gwo foul lame Égypte la vin sispann pa men Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan.
Thus said Lord YHWH: I have caused the multitude of Egypt to cease, By the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon,
11 Li menm ak pèp li a avè l, pi mechan pami nasyon yo va antre pou detwi peyi a. Yo va rale nepe yo kont Égypte, e plen peyi a ak mò yo.
He and his people with him—the terrible of nations, Are brought in to destroy the land, And they have drawn their swords against Egypt, And have filled the land [with] the wounded.
12 Anplis, Mwen va seche kanal larivyè Nil yo, e vann peyi a pou antre nan men moun mechan yo. Mwen va fè peyi a vin dezole ak tout sa ki ladann pa men etranje yo. Mwen, SENYÈ a, fin pale.”
And I have made floods a dry place, And I have sold the land into the hand of evildoers, And I have made the land desolate, And its fullness, by the hand of strangers, I, YHWH, have spoken.
13 “‘Konsa pale Senyè Bondye a: “Anplis, Mwen va detwi zidòl yo, e fè imaj yo sispann nan Noph. P ap gen prens ankò nan peyi Égypte. Mwen va mete laperèz nan peyi Égypte.
Thus said Lord YHWH: And I have destroyed idols, And caused vain things to cease from Noph, And there is no longer a prince of the land of Egypt, And I give fear in the land of Egypt.
14 Mwen va fè Pathros vin dezole, mete dife nan Tsoan, e egzekite jijman sou Nò.
And I have made Pathros desolate, And I have given fire against Zoan, And I have done judgments in No,
15 Mwen va vide chalè kòlè Mwen sou Sin, sitadèl a Égypte la. Anplis, Mwen va koupe retire nèt gwo foul Nò yo.
And I have poured out My fury on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt, And I have cut off the multitude of No.
16 Mwen va mete dife an Égypte. Sin va vin tòde ak gwo doulè. No va kraze an mòso, separe. Noph va gen brèch nèt ak gwo twoub chak jou.
And I have given fire against Egypt, Sin is greatly pained, and No is to be broken, And Noph has daily distresses.
17 Jenn mesye a On ak Pi Béseth yo va tonbe pa nepe. Y ap antre an kaptivite.
The youths of Aven and Pi-Beseth fall by sword, And these go into captivity.
18 Nan Tachpanès, jounen an va vin fènwa, lè M kraze jouk an fè Égypte la. Nan lè sa a, ògèy pouvwa li va sispann nan li. Yon nwaj va kouvri li, e fi li yo va antre an kaptivite.
And the day has been dark in Tehaphnehes, In My breaking the yokes of Egypt there, And the excellence of her strength has ceased in her, Her! A cloud covers her, And her daughters go into captivity.
19 Konsa Mwen va egzekite jijman sou Égypte. Konsa, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”’”
And I have done judgments in Egypt, And they have known that I [am] YHWH.”
20 Nan onzyèm ane, nan premye mwa, nan setyèm jou nan mwa a, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
And it comes to pass, in the eleventh year, in the first [month], on the seventh of the month, a word of YHWH has been to me, saying, “Son of man,
21 “Fis a lòm, Mwen te kase bra Farawon an, wa Égypte la. Gade byen, li pa t velope ak pansman pou l ta geri, ni ak bandaj pou l ta ka vin gen fòs pou kenbe nepe.
I have broken the arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And behold, it has not been bound up to give healing, To put a bandage to bind it, To strengthen it—to lay hold on the sword.
22 Konsa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Gade byen, Mwen kont Farawon, wa Égypte la, e Mwen va kase bra li, ni sa ki gen fòs la ni sa ki kase deja a. Epi Mwen va fè nepe a tonbe kite men li.
Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And I have broken his arms, The strong one and the broken one, And have caused the sword to fall out of his hand,
23 Mwen va gaye Ejipsyen yo pami nasyon yo e dispèse yo pami peyi yo.
And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And have spread them through lands,
24 Paske Mwen va ranfòse men a wa Babylone nan, e mete nepe Mwen nan men l. Men Mwen va kase bra a Farawon, pou li ka vin plenyen nan gòj devan wa Babylone nan, ak plent a yon nonm ki blese jis a lamò.
And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And have given My sword into his hand, And I have broken the arms of Pharaoh, And he has groaned the groans of a pierced one—before him.
25 Konsa, Mwen va ranfòse bra a wa Babylone nan, men bra a Farawon yo va tonbe. Nan lè sa a, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè M mete nepe M nan men a wa Babylone nan, e lè li lonje li kont peyi Égypte la.
And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And the arms of Pharaoh fall down, And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My giving My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he has stretched it out toward the land of Egypt.
26 Lè Mwen gaye Ejipsyen yo pami nasyon yo, e dispèse yo pami peyi yo, alò, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.’”
And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”
