< 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 chief prince of 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 says the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the chief prince 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 back, and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you forth, and all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armor, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 Perse Ethiopie e Put avèk yo, yo tout ak boukliye ak kas;
Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya 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 of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with you.
7 “‘“Prepare ou e rete prepare, ou menm ak tout twoup ki rasanble antoure ou yo. Veye byen sou yo.
Be you prepared, and prepare for yourself, you, and all your company that are assembled to you, and be you a guard 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 shall be visited: in the latter years you shall come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
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.”
You shall ascend and come like a storm, you shall be like a cloud to cover the land, you, and all your bands, and many people 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; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into your mind, and you shall 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 you shall say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, 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 take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn your hand on the desolate places that are now inhabited, and on the people that are 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 to you, Are you come to take a spoil? have you gathered your company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take 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, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, Thus says the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwells safely, shall you 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 you shall come from your place out of the north parts, you, and many people with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company, 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 you shall come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring you against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be 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; Are you he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring you 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 at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, says the Lord GOD, 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 and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely 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 fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep on the earth, and all the men that are on 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, says the Lord GOD: 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 plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain on him, and on his bands, and on the many people that are with him, an 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.’”
Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.
