< 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, set your face against Gog, the land of Magog, the prince of the head of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy about him.
3 Di l: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Gade byen, Mwen kont ou, O Gog, prens a Rosch la, Méschec ak Tubal.
And you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, prince of the head of 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 I will turn you around, and I will place a bit in your jaws. And I will lead you away, with all your army, the horses and the horsemen all clothed in armor, a great multitude, equipped with spears and light shields and swords,
5 Perse Ethiopie e Put avèk yo, yo tout ak boukliye ak kas;
the Persians, the Ethiopians, and the Libyans with them, all with heavy shields and helmets,
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 his companies, the house of Togarmah, the northern parts, and all his strength, and the many peoples with you.
7 “‘“Prepare ou e rete prepare, ou menm ak tout twoup ki rasanble antoure ou yo. Veye byen sou yo.
Prepare and equip yourself, with all your multitude which has been assembled to you. And you shall be like a commandment to them.
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 many days, you will be visited. At the end of the years, you will arrive at the land which was turned back by the sword, and which has been gathered from many peoples to the mountains of Israel that have been continually abandoned. These ones have been led away from the peoples, and all of them will be living confidently within it.
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.”
But you will ascend and arrive like a tempest and like a cloud, so that you may cover the land, you and all your companies, and the many 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.
Thus says the Lord God: In that day, words will climb into your heart, and you will invent a most wicked plan.
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 ascend to the land without a wall. I will go to those who are resting and dwelling securely. All these live without a wall; they have no bars or gates.’
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.’
Thus, you will plunder spoils, and you will take possession of prey, so that you may lay your hand upon those who had been abandoned, and afterwards were restored, and upon a people who were gathered away from the Gentiles, a people who have begun to possess, and to be the inhabitants of, the navel 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 the merchants of Tarshish, and all its lions will say to you: ‘Could you have arrived in order to purchase from the spoils? Behold, you have gathered your multitude in order to plunder a prey, so that you may take silver and gold, and carry away equipment and substance, and plunder immeasurable 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?
Because of this, son of man, prophesy, and you shall say to Gog: Thus says the Lord God: How is it that you do not know of that day, when my people, Israel, will be living in confidence?
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 advance from your place, from the parts of the north, you and the many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great assembly and an immense 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 rise up over my people, Israel, like a cloud, so that you may cover the earth. In the latter days, you will be. And I will lead you over my own land, so that the Gentiles may know me, when I will have been sanctified 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?
Thus says the Lord God: Therefore, you are the one, about whom I spoke in the days of antiquity, by the hand of my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in the days of those times that I would lead you over 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 this shall be in that day, in the day of the advent of Gog over the land of Israel, says the Lord God: my indignation will rise up in my fury.
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.
And I have spoken, in my zeal and in the fire of my wrath, that there shall be a great commotion over the land of Israel, in that day.
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.
And before my face there shall be stirred up: the fish of the sea, and the flying things of the air, and the beasts of the field, and every crawling thing that moves across the soil, and all the men who are upon the face of the earth. And the mountains will be overturned, and the hedges will fall, and every wall will fall in ruin to the ground.
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 call for the sword against him on all my mountains, says the Lord God. Each one’s sword will be directed toward 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 judge him by pestilence, and blood, and violent rainstorms, and immense hailstones. I will rain fire and brimstone upon him, and upon his army, and upon the many peoples who are with him.
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 be magnified and sanctified. And I will be known in the eyes of the many nations. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
