Ezekyèl 31
1 Nan onzyèm ane, nan twazyèm mwa, nan premye nan mwa a, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
And it was don in the enleuenthe yeer, in the thridde moneth, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad to me,
2 “Fis a lòm, pale a Farawon, wa Égypte la, ak gwo foul lame li yo: ‘Ak kilès ou sanble nan grandè ou?
and he seide, Thou, sone of man, seie to Farao, kyng of Egipt, and to his puple, To whom art thou maad lijk in thi greetnesse?
3 Gade byen, Assyrie te yon pye sèd nan Liban. Branch li yo te bèl nan lonbraj forè a, e byen wo. Tèt li te rive pami nwaj yo.
Lo! Assur as a cedre in Liban, fair in braunchis, and ful of boowis, and hiy bi hiynesse; and his heiyte was reisid among thicke bowis.
4 Dlo te fè l grandi, pwofondè te fè li wo. Ak rivyè li yo, li te tout tan ap vin elaji lizyè li toupatou. Li te voye kanal li yo nan tout pyebwa chan yo.
Watris nurschiden hym, the depthe of watris enhaunside him; hise floodis fletiden out in the cumpas of hise rootis, and he sente out hise strondis to alle the trees of the cuntrei.
5 Akoz sa, wotè li te piwo ke tout pyebwa chan yo, e branch li yo te vin anpil e byen long akoz anpil dlo ki te fè l gaye yo.
Therfor his hiynesse was enhaunsid ouer alle trees of the cuntrei, and hise trees weren multiplied, and hise braunchis weren reisid, for many watris.
6 Tout zwazo syèl yo te fè nich nan branch li yo. Anba branch sila yo, tout bèt chan yo te vin fè pitit. Tout gran nasyon yo te vin rete anba lonbraj li.
And whanne he hadde stretchid forth his schadewe, alle the volatils of the eir maden nestis in hise braunchis; and alle the beestis of forestis gendriden vndur hise boowis, and the cumpeny of ful many folkis dwellide vndur the schadewynge place of hym.
7 Konsa, li te bèl nan grandè li, nan longè branch li yo; paske rasin li te lonje rive kote anpil dlo.
And he was ful fair in his greetnesse, and in alargyng of hise trees; for the roote of hym was bisidis many watris.
8 Pye sèd nan jaden Bondye yo pa t ka egal ak li. Pye sipre yo pa t ka gen branch tankou l, ni pa t gen lòt bwa ki konpare ak branch li yo. Menm bwa pen an pa t gen branch kon li. Pa t gen pyebwa nan jaden Bondye yo ki ta ka parèy li nan bèlte.
Cedris in the paradijs of God weren not hiyere than he; fir trees atteyneden not euenli to the hiynesse of hym, and plane trees weren not euene with the boowis of hym. Ech tree of paradijs of God was not maad lic hym and his fairnesse.
9 Mwen te fè l bèl ak fòs kantite branch li yo, e tout pyebwa Éden yo te jalou devan l.’
For Y made hym fair, and with many and thicke boowis; and alle the trees of lust, that weren in the paradijs of God, hadden enuye to hym.
10 “Akoz sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Akoz li byenwo nan wotè l, te mete tèt li rive pami nwaj yo, e kè l te awogan nan wotè li,
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For that that he was reisid in hiynesse, and he yaf his hyynesse greene and thicke, and his herte was reisid in his hiynesse;
11 pou sa, Mwen va livre li nan men a pi pwisan an a nasyon yo. Li va regle sa nèt. Selon mechanste li, konsa Mwen te chase li.
now Y haue youe hym in to the hondis of the strongeste man of hethene men. And he doynge schal do to that Assur; aftir the vnfeithfulnesse of hym Y castide hym out.
12 Etranje yo, pi pwisan a nasyon yo, te koupe li a tè e te kite li. Sou mòn yo e nan tout vale yo, branch li yo te vin tonbe, e gwo branch li yo te vin kase nan tout ravin peyi yo. Konsa, tout pèp sou latè yo te desann kite lonbraj li e te menm kite li.
And aliens, and the moost cruel men of naciouns, schulen kitte hym doun, and schulen caste hym forth on hillis. And hise braunchis schulen falle doun in alle grete valeis, and hise trees schulen be brokun in alle roochis of stoon of erthe. And alle the puplis of erthe schulen go awei fro his schadewing place, and schulen forsake hym.
13 Nan gwo dega li yo, tout zwazo syèl yo va vin demere e tout bèt chan yo va sou branch pa l ki tonbe,
Alle volatils of the eir dwelliden in the fallyng of hym, and alle beestis of the cuntrei weren in the braunchis of hym.
14 pou tout pyebwa akote dlo yo pa ka vin leve tèt yo wo nan wotè yo. Pwisan pa yo p ap mete tèt yo pami nwaj yo, menm sa yo akote sous dlo yo pa ka kanpe dwat nan wotè yo. Paske yo tout te livre a lanmò, pou rive anba tè pami fis a lòm yo, ak sila ki desann nan twou fòs yo.’
Wherfor alle the trees of watris schulen not be reisid in hir hiynesse, nether schulen sette hir hiynesse among places ful of woode, and ful of boowis, and alle trees that ben moistid of watris schulen not stonde in the hiynesse of tho. For alle thei ben youun in to deth, to the ferthest lond in the myddis of the sones of men, to hem that goon doun in to the lake.
15 “Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Nan jou ke li te desann nan sejou mò yo, Mwen te koze lamantasyon. Mwen te fèmen pwofondè a sou li epi te bouche rivyè li yo. Epi anpil dlo li yo Mwen te vin bouche nèt. Mwen te fè Liban kriye ak gwo doulè pou li e tout pyebwa nan chan yo te vin fennen akoz li. (Sheol h7585)
The Lord God seith these thingis, In the dai whanne he yede doun to hellis, Y brouyte yn mourenyng; Y hilide hym with depthe of watris, and I forbede his flodis, and Y refreynede many watris. The Liban was sori on him, and alle the trees of the feeld (Sheol h7585)
16 Mwen te fè tout nasyon yo tranble nan son a chit li a, lè M t ap fè l desann nan sejou mò yo ak sila ki desann nan twou fòs yo. Tout pyebwa byen wouze Liban yo, pi byen chwazi ak pi meyè a Liban yo, te vin rekonfòte anba tè. (Sheol h7585)
weren shakun of the soun of his falling. I mouide togidere hethene men, whanne Y ledde hym doun to helle, with hem that yeden doun in to the lake. And alle trees of likyng, noble trees, and ful cleere in the Liban, alle that weren moistid with watris, weren coumfortid in the loweste lond. (Sheol h7585)
17 Yo menm tou te desann avè l nan sejou mò yo akote sila ki te touye pa nepe yo. Epi sila ki te fòs li yo, te rete anba lonbraj li pami nasyon yo. (Sheol h7585)
For whi also thei schulen go doun with hym to helle, to slayn men with swerd; and the arm of ech man schal sitte vndur the schadewyng place of hym, in the myddis of naciouns. (Sheol h7585)
18 “‘A kilès nan pyebwa Éden yo ou egal konsa nan glwa ak grandè? Malgre sa, ou va vin desann ak pyebwa Éden yo jis rive anba tè. Ou va vin kouche nan mitan ensikonsi yo, avèk sila ki te touye pa nepe yo. “‘Se konsa Farawon va ye ak tout gwo foul lame li yo!” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.”
To whom art thou licned, thou noble and hiy among the trees of likyng? Lo! thou art led doun with the trees of likyng to the fertheste lond. In the myddis of vncircumcidid men thou schalt slepe, with hem that ben slayn bi swerd. Thilke is Farao, and al the multitude of hym, seith the Lord God.
