< Ezekyèl 32 >
1 Nan douzyèm ane, nan douzyèm mwa, nan premye nan mwa a, “pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
On the first day of the twelfth month of the twelfth year, a message from the Lord came to me, saying,
2 ‘Fis a lòm, leve fè lamantasyon sou Farawon, wa Égypte la. Di li: “Ou te konpare tèt ou ak yon jenn lyon nasyon yo; sepandan, ou tankou yon gwo bèt sovaj lanmè a. Ou pete vin parèt nan rivyè ou yo. Ou te fè labou vin leve ak pye ou yo, e te fè larivyè pa yo vin sal nèt.”
“Son of man, sing a funeral song for Pharaoh king of Egypt and tell him: You think you're like a lion among the nations but in reality you're like a sea monster. You roll around in your rivers, stirring up the waters with your feet, making the water muddy.
3 Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Koulye a, Mwen va ouvri filè Mwen sou ou avèk konpanyen a anpil moun, e nan filè Mwen an, yo va fè ou leve.
This is what the Lord God says: In the presence of many nations I'm going to spread my net over you, and they will pull you up in my net.
4 Mwen va kite ou sou latè. Mwen va jete ou sou chan ouvri, epi Mwen va fè tout zwazo syèl yo poze sou ou. Mwen va fè tout bèt sou latè yo vin satisfè sou ou.
I will drop you on the land; I will throw you down on the bare earth. I will make all the birds of prey come and land you; I will have all the wild animals eat you until they're satisfied.
5 Mwen va lage chè ou sou mòn yo, e Mwen va plen vale yo ak kadav ou yo.
I will dump your flesh on the mountains and fill the valleys with your remains.
6 Anplis, Mwen va fè tè a bwè san ou. L ap rive jis nan mòn yo. Kous dlo yo va vin plen ak ou.
I will fill the land with your flowing blood, pouring it out on the mountains, filling the valleys.
7 Konsa, lè M etenn ou, Mwen va kouvri syèl yo e fè zetwal yo fènwa. Mwen va kouvri solèy la ak yon nwaj, e lalin nan p ap bay limyè.
When I put out the light of your life, I will cover the heavens and darken their stars. I will use a cloud to cover the sun, and the moon will stop shining.
8 Tout limyè k ap briye nan syèl la, Mwen va fè yo vin nwa sou ou, e va mete fènwa sou peyi ou a,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
I will darken all the bright lights in the heavens above you, and I will make your land go dark, declares the Lord God.
9 “Anplis, Mwen va twouble kè a anpil nasyon, lè Mwen mennen destriksyon ou pami nasyon yo, jis rive nan peyi ke ou pa t janm konnen.
When I destroy you I will make many people frightened, even in countries you don't know anything about.
10 Mwen va fè anpil pèp vin etone sezi de ou, e wa yo va tèlman gen gwo laperèz pou ou, lè M fè nepe M parèt devan yo akoz ou menm. Yo va tranble tout tan, chak moun pou pwòp lavi li, nan jou ke ou tonbe a.”
Many will be shocked at what I do to you, and their kings will be horrified at what has happened to you, trembling when I wave my sword in front of them. On the day that you fall all of them will shake in fear for their lives.
11 Paske konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Nepe a wa Babylone nan va vini sou ou.
For this is what the Lord God says: The sword of the king of Babylon will attack you!
12 Pa nepe a pwisan yo, Mwen va fè gwo foul lame ou yo tonbe. Yo tout se chèf sovaj pami nasyon yo. Yo va devaste ògèy Égypte la, e tout gwo foul lame li yo va detwi.
I will allow your army to be defeated, your soldiers killed by the swords of the powerful enemy army from the cruelest of all nations. They will ruin of the glories of Egypt and destroy all your people.
13 Anplis, Mwen va detwi tout bèt ki rete bò kote anpil dlo li yo. Pye moun p ap gaye labou ankò, ni zago a bèt p ap gaye labou ankò.
I will slaughter all your livestock living beside the wide rivers. Nobody will be there to stir rivers up with their feet; no livestock hooves will make them muddy.
14 Konsa, Mwen va fè dlo yo vin kalm e fè rivyè yo vin kouri kon lwil,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
I will allow their waters to settle and I will make her rivers flow smoothly like oil, declares the Lord God.
15 “Lè Mwen fè peyi Égypte vin yon dezolasyon, e peyi a vin pèdi tout sa ki te fè l plen yo, lè M frape tout sila ki rete ladann yo, alò, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.
When I turn Egypt into a wasteland, completely emptying it out, when I kill everyone who lives there, then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.
16 “‘“Sa se yon lamantasyon. Ak li menm, y ap fè dèy. Fi a nasyon yo va chante li. Sou Égypte ak sou tout gwo foul lame li yo, yo va chante li”, deklare Senyè BONDYE a.’”
This is the funeral song that foreign women will sing. They will sing it in mourning over Egypt and all its many people, declares the Lord God.”
17 Nan douzyèm ane, nan kenz nan mwa a, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
On the fifteenth day of the twelfth month of the twelfth year, a message from the Lord came to me, saying,
18 “Fis a lòm, rele anmwey pou gwo foul a Égypte yo. Desann yo menm ak fi a nasyon pwisan yo, jis rive nan pwofondè tè a, ansanm avèk sila ki desann nan twou fòs yo.
“Son of man, weep for all the many Egyptians. Send them along with the people of powerful nations down into the depths of the earth with those who go down into the grave.
19 ‘Se ki moun ou depase nan bèlte? Desann, fè kabann ou ak ensikonsi yo.’
Do you think you're more beautiful than anyone else? Go down and take your place in the grave with the heathen!
20 Yo va tonbe nan mitan sila ki touye pa nepe yo. Fi a vin livre pou nepe a. Fè l rale soti ak tout gwo foul li yo.
They will lie among those killed by the sword. A sword is ready to kill all the many people of Egypt.
21 Pi gran pami pwisan yo va pale ak li nan mitan sejou mò yo ansanm ak sila ki t ap ede li yo. ‘Yo fin desann, yo kouche san fè mouvman, ensikonsi yo, touye pa nepe yo.’ (Sheol )
Powerful chiefs will speak from Sheol about Egypt and its allies: ‘They have come down here and lie with the heathen, with those killed by the sword.’ (Sheol )
22 “Assyrie, li la, ak tout konpanyen li yo. Tonbo li yo antoure li. Yo tout touye, tonbe pa nepe,
Assyria is there with all its people—it's surrounded by graves. All of them died violent deaths, killed by the sword.
23 tonbo a sila ki plase nan pati pi izole twou fòs la. Epi konpanyen li yo antoure tonbo li. Yo tout te touye, tonbe akoz nepe a; tout sila ki te fè gwo laperèz gaye nan peyi moun vivan yo.
Its graves are set in the deepest parts of the place of the dead, and the graves of all its people surround Assyria's grave. All of them died violent deaths, killed by the sword, these people who once terrorized others when they were alive.
24 “Élam la ak tout gwo foul li yo ki antoure tonbo li a. Yo tout mouri, tonbe pa nepe, e te desann ensikonsi nan pati piba latè yo; sila ki te kreye gwo laperèz nan tout peyi moun vivan yo, e te pote wont yo, ansanm avèk sila ki te desann nan twou fòs yo.
Elam is there with all its people around its grave. All of them died violent deaths, killed by the sword. They went down into the grave, these heathen people who once terrorized others when they were alive. They are disgraced, along with all others who go down into the grave.
25 Yo fè kabann Elam nan pami sila ki touye ak tout gwo foul li yo. Tonbo yo antoure li. Yo tout se ensikonsi, touye pa nepe. Paske se gwo laperèz yo te kreye nan peyi moun vivan yo, e konsa, yo te pote wont yo avèk sila ki desann nan twou fòs yo. Yo rive nan mitan sila ki te touye yo.
A resting place is made ready among those who have been killed for Elam and all its many people—their graves surround Elam's grave. They are all heathen and were killed by the sword, though they once terrorized others when they were alive. They are disgraced, along with all others who go down into the grave. They are laid to rest among those who have been killed.
26 “Méschec Tubal, ak tout gwo foul yo la. Tonbo yo antoure yo. Yo tout se ensikonsi, touye pa nepe. Paske se gwo laperèz yo te kreye nan peyi moun vivan yo.
Meshech and Tubal are there with all their many people, surrounded by all their graves. They are all heathen and were killed by the sword, though they once terrorized others when they were alive.
27 Ni yo pa p kouche akote chèf pwisan a ensikonsi yo, sila ki te desann nan sejou mò yo ak zam lagè yo, ak nepe yo byen plase anba tèt yo. Men inikite yo te rete menm sou zo yo; sepandan, se pi pwisan yo te teworize nan peyi moun vivan yo. (Sheol )
But they're not laid to rest with the fallen warriors of long ago who went down into Sheol with their weapons of war. Their swords were placed underneath their heads and their shields over their bones, although these powerful warriors once terrorized others when they were alive. (Sheol )
28 “Men nan mitan ensikonsi a, ou va vin kraze, e kouche avèk sila ki te touye pa nepe yo.
However, you will also be cut down and laid to rest with the heathen, with those killed by the sword.
29 “La tou, gen Édom, wa li ak tout prens li yo, ki malgre tout pwisans yo, vin kouche avèk sila ki te touye pa nepe yo. Yo va kouche avèk ensikonsi yo e avèk sila ki desann nan twou fòs yo.
Edom is there with all its kings and princes. Once they were powerful, but now they too are laid to rest with those killed by the sword. They lie with the heathen, with those who go down into the grave.
30 “La tou, gen chèf lanò yo, yo tout ak tout Sidonyen yo. Malgre tout gwo laperèz yo te kreye akoz pwisans yo, nan wont, yo te desann avèk sila ki te touye yo. Konsa, yo te kouche ensikonsi avèk sila ki te touye pa nepe yo, e te pote gwo wont yo avèk lòt yo ki desann nan twou fòs yo.
All the leaders from the north, and all the people of Sidon are there too. They also are disgraced, going down with those who were killed, in spite of their formidable power. They are heathen, lying there with those killed by the sword, and have the disgrace of those who go down into the grave.
31 “Sa yo, Farawon va wè e li va twouve konsolasyon pou tout gwo foul li yo ki te touye pa nepe yo, menm Farawon ak tout lame li a,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
Pharaoh will see them and be pleased that he and all his many people are not the only ones killed by the sword, declares the Lord God.
32 Sepandan, Mwen te mete gwo laperèz li nan peyi moun vivan yo. Malgre sa, li va kouche ak ensikonsi yo, avèk sila ki te touye pa nepe yo, menm Farawon ak tout gwo lame li yo”, deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
For I will terrorize those who are alive so that Pharaoh and all his many people will be laid to rest with the heathen, with those killed by the sword, declares the Lord God.”
