< Ezekyèl 38 >
1 Epi pawòl Bondye te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
And the word of Jehovah came unto 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 thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy 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, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, prince 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 I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them thoroughly equipped, a great assemblage with targets and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 Perse Ethiopie e Put avèk yo, yo tout ak boukliye ak kas;
Persia, Cush, and Phut with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
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 bands; the house of Togarmah from the uttermost north, and all his bands; — many peoples with thee.
7 “‘“Prepare ou e rete prepare, ou menm ak tout twoup ki rasanble antoure ou yo. Veye byen sou yo.
Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself thou, and all thine assemblage that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto 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 shalt thou be visited; at the end of years thou shalt come into the land brought back from the sword [and] gathered out of many peoples, upon the mountains of Israel which have been a perpetual waste: but it is brought forth out from the peoples, and they shall all of them be dwelling in safety.
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 thou shalt ascend, thou shalt come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many peoples with thee.
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 saith the Lord Jehovah: It shall even come to pass in that day that things shall come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought;
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 thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will come to them that are in quiet, that dwell in safety, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor 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.’
to seize a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thy hand against the waste places that are [now] inhabited, and against a people gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the middle of the land.
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, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to seize a spoil? hast thou gathered thine assemblage to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take cattle and goods, to seize a great spoil?
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?
Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In that day when my people Israel dwelleth in safety, shalt thou not know [it]?
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 thou shalt come from thy place out of the uttermost north, thou and many peoples with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great assemblage and a mighty 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 thou shalt come up against my people Israel as a cloud to cover the land — it shall be at the end of days — and I will bring thee against my land, that the nations may know me, when I shall be hallowed in thee, 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 saith the Lord Jehovah: Art thou not he of whom I have spoken in old time through my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days, for [many] years, that I would bring thee 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 shall come to pass in that day, in the day when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah, [that] my fury shall come up in my face;
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 my jealousy, in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Verily in that day there shall 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 fowl of the heavens, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things which creep upon the earth, and all mankind that are upon the face of the earth shall shake at my presence; and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall 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 a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord Jehovah: every man's sword shall 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 enter into judgment with him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many peoples that are with him, overflowing rain and great hailstones, fire and brimstone.
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 magnify myself, and sanctify myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
