< Ezekyèl 38 >

1 Epi pawòl Bondye te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Fis a lòm, mete figi ou vè Gog nan peyi Magog, prens a Rosch la, Méschec, ak Tubal e pwofetize kont li.
Son of man, let your face be turned against Gog, of the land of Magog, the ruler of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and be a prophet against him,
3 Di l: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen kont ou, O Gog, prens a Rosch la, Méschec ak Tubal.
And say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am against you, O Gog, ruler of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal:
4 Mwen va fè ou detounen. Mwen va mete yon kwòk nan machwè ou, e Mwen va rale ou deyò ak tout lame ou a; cheval ak chevalye yo, yo tout byen abiye, yon gran twoup moun, boukliye ak pwotèj, tout k ap manyen nepe;
And turning you round, I will put hooks in your mouth and make you come out with all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them in full war-dress, a great force with breastplate and body-cover, all of them armed with swords:
5 Perse Ethiopie e Put avèk yo, yo tout ak boukliye ak kas;
Persia, Cush, and Put with them; all of them with body-cover and metal head-dress:
6 Gomer ak tout twoup li yo; Beth-Togarma soti kote ki pi lwen nan nò a avèk tout twoup li yo—anpil moun avèk ou.”
Gomer and all her forces; the people of Togarmah in the inmost parts of the north, with all his forces: a great number of peoples with you.
7 “‘“Prepare ou e rete prepare, ou menm ak tout twoup ki rasanble antoure ou yo. Veye byen sou yo.
Be ready, make yourself ready, you and all the forces who are with you, and be ready for my orders.
8 Apre anpil jou, ou va vizite. Nan dènye ane yo, ou va vin antre nan teren ki vin restore soti anba nepe a. Moun ki rasanble va soti anpil nasyon pou rive sou mòn Israël yo. Yon kote ki te devni san vale, va soti nan men nasyon yo, e la, y ap viv ansekirite, yo tout.
After a long time you will get your orders: in the last years you will come into the land which has been given back from the sword, which has been got together out of a great number of peoples, on the mountains of Israel which have ever been a waste: but it has been taken out from the peoples and they will be living, all of them, without fear of danger.
9 Ou va monte. Ou va vini tankou yon tanpèt. Ou va tankou yon nwaj k ap kouvri peyi a, ou menm ak tout twoup ou yo, ansanm ak anpil lòt nasyon yo.”
And you will go up, you will come like a storm, you will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your forces, and a great number of peoples with you.
10 “‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Li va rive nan jou sa a, ke kèk panse va vin antre nan lespri ou e ou va anvizaje yon move plan.
This is what the Lord has said: In that day it will come about that things will come into your mind, and you will have thoughts of an evil design:
11 Konsa ou va di: ‘Mwen va monte kont peyi a ak vil san miray yo. Mwen va ale kont sila ki an repo yo, ki viv ansekirite yo, yo tout k ap viv san miray yo, san fè fòje ni pòtay yo,
And you will say, I will go up to the land of small unwalled towns; I will go to those who are quiet, living, all of them, without fear of danger, without walls or locks or doors:
12 pou kaptire e sezi piyaj la, pou vire men ou kont kote dezè ki, koulye a, gen moun yo, e kont pèp ki vin rasanble soti nan nasyon yo, ki te vin genyen byen ak bèt, ki viv nan mitan mond lan.’
To take their property by force and go off with their goods; turning your hand against the waste places which now are peopled, and against the people who have been got together out of the nations, who have got cattle and goods for themselves, who are living in the middle of the earth.
13 Séba, Dedan, komèsan Tarsis yo ak tout ti vil li yo va di ou: ‘Èske ou vini pou kaptire piyaj la? Èske ou te rasanble twoup ou yo ou pou sezi piyaj la, pou pote ale ajan ak lò, pou pote ale bèt ak anpil byen, pou sezi gwo piyaj la?’”’
Sheba, and Dedan and her traders, Tarshish with all her traders, will say to you, Have you come to take our goods? have you got your armies together to take away our property by force? to take away silver and gold, cattle and goods, to go off with great wealth?
14 “Pou sa, pwofetize, fis a lòm e di a Gog: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Nan jou ke pèp Mwen an ap viv ansekirite a, èske ou p ap konnen sa?
For this cause, son of man, be a prophet and say to Gog, These are the words of the Lord: In that day, when my people Israel are living without fear of danger, will you not be moved against them?
15 Ou va sòti nan plas kote ki pi lwen yo nan nò a, ou menm ak anpil pèp avèk ou, yo tout ap galope cheval, yon gwo asanble e yon lame pwisan.
And you will come from your place in the inmost parts of the north, you and a great number of peoples with you, all of them on horseback, a great force and a strong army:
16 Epi ou va vini kont pèp Mwen an, Israël, tankou yon gran nwaj k ap kouvri tout tè a. Li va vin rive nan dènye jou ke Mwen va mennen ou vini kont peyi Mwen, pou nasyon yo ka konnen Mwen lè M fin sanktifye atravè ou menm, O Gog, devan zye yo.”
And you will come up against my people Israel, like a cloud covering the land; and it will come about, in the last days, that I will make you come against my land, so that the nations may have knowledge of me when I make myself holy in you, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 “‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Èske ou se moun sou sila ke M te pale nan ansyen jou yo pa sèvitè Mwen yo, pwofèt Israël yo? Sila ki te pwofetize nan jou sa yo pandan anpil ane pou M ta mennen ou kont yo?
This is what the Lord has said: You are he of whom I gave them word in earlier times by my servants, the prophets of Israel, who in those days went on saying, year after year, that I would make you come up against them.
18 Li va vin rive nan jou sila a, lè Gog monte kont peyi Israël”, deklare Senyè BONDYE a: “ke gwo chalè mekontantman Mwen va monte nan kòlè Mwen.
And it will come about in that day, when Gog comes up against the land of Israel, says the Lord, that my wrath will come up, and my passion and my bitter feeling.
19 Nan devouman Mwen ak nan chalè kòlè Mwen, Mwen deklare ke nan jou sa a, va anverite gen yon gwo tranbleman detè nan peyi Israël.
For in the fire of my wrath I have said, Truly, in that day there will be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20 Pwason lanmè yo, zwazo syèl yo, bèt nan chan yo, tout bèt sila k ap kouri atè yo ak tout moun sou sifas tè a va souke devan prezans Mwen. Mòn yo tou va jete anba, ti wout apik yo va vin bouche e tout miray va tonbe atè.
So that the fish of the sea and the birds of heaven and the beasts of the field and everything moving on the earth, and all the men who are on the face of the earth, will be shaking before me, and the mountains will be overturned and the high places will come down, and every wall will come falling down to the earth.
21 Mwen va rele yon nepe kont li sou tout mòn Mwen yo”, deklare Senyè BONDYE a. “Nepe a tout moun va kont frè yo.
And I will send to all my mountains for a sword against him, says the Lord: every man's sword will be against his brother.
22 Ak ensèk ak maladi, e ak san, Mwen va antre an jijman ak li. Mwen va voye lapli sou li ak twoup li yo e sou kantite moun ki vini avèk li yo, yon gwo lapli ak gwo wòch lagrèl, ak dife, ak souf.
And I will take up my cause against him with disease and with blood; and I will send down on him and on his forces and on the peoples who are with him, an overflowing shower and great ice-drops, fire, and burning.
23 Mwen va egzalte tèt Mwen, sanktifye tèt Mwen e fè tèt Mwen menm vin rekonèt nan zye a anpil nasyon. Konsa, yo va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.’”
And I will make my name great and make myself holy, and I will make myself clear to a number of nations; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
