Ezekyèl 8
1 Li te vin rive nan sizyèm ane, sou senkyèm jou, nan sizyèm mwa a, pandan mwen te chita lakay mwen ak ansyen a Juda yo ki te chita devan m, ke men Senyè BONDYE a te tonbe sou mwen la.
And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the elders of Judah sat before me, that the hand of the lord Jehovah fell there upon me.
2 Answit, mwen te gade e vwala, yon imaj kon aparans a yon nonm—soti nan ren li pou rive anba, te gen aparans dife e soti nan ren li pou monte, aparans yon bagay briyan tankou metal k ap klere.
Then I beheld, and, lo, a likeness as the appearance of fire, from the appearance of his loins and downward, fire, and from his loins and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as it were glowing metal.
3 Li te lonje yon bagay sanblab ak yon men, e li te kenbe m nan cheve m nan pati dèyè tèt mwen. Konsa, Lespri a te leve m monte rive antre tè a ak syèl la, e li te mennen mwen nan vizyon Bondye yo pou rive Jérusalem nan antre kote nò nan pòtay pa anndan an, kote ki te gen chèz pou zidòl ki rele jalouzi a, ki konn pwovoke jalouzi a.
And he put forth the form of a hand, and took me by a lock of my head. And the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the gate of the inner court that looks toward the north, where the seat of the image of jealousy was, which provokes to jealousy.
4 Gade byen, glwa Bondye Israël la te la, tankou aparans ke m te wè nan plèn nan.
And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the appearance that I saw in the plain.
5 Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, leve zye ou koulye a vè nò.” Konsa, mwen te leve zye m vè nò, e gade byen, nan nò a pòtay lotèl, se te zidòl jalouzi a ki te nan antre a.
Then he said to me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes now the way toward the north. So I lifted up my eyes the way toward the north, and, behold, northward of the gate of the altar was this image of jealousy in the entry.
6 Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, èske ou wè ki sa y ap fè, gwo abominasyon ke lakay Israël ap fè isit la, pou m ta kite sanktyè Mwen an? Malgre toujou, ou va wè abominasyon ki pi gwo.”
And he said to me, Son of man, see thou what they do, even the great abominations that the house of Israel commit here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? But thou shall again see yet other great abominations.
7 Li te mennen m nan antre lakou enteryè a, e lè m te gade, vwala, yon twou nan mi an.
And he brought me to the door of the court. And when I looked, behold, a hole in the wall.
8 Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, fouye yon twou fonse antre nan mi an.” Konsa, mwen te fouye yon twou fonse antre nan mi an e vwala, yon pòt pou antre.
Then he said to me, Son of man, dig now in the wall. And when I had dug in the wall, behold, a door.
9 Li te di mwen: “Antre ladann pou wè abominasyon mechan ke y ap komèt isit la.”
And he said to me, Go in, and see the wicked abominations that they do here.
10 Konsa, mwen te antre e vwala, tout fòm bagay ki trennen atè, bèt ak bagay abominab, ak tout zidòl lakay Israël yo te grave kon desen sou mi an toutotou li.
So I went in and saw, and, behold, every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon the wall round about.
11 Epi te kanpe devan yo, swasann-dis lansyen a lakay Israël yo, e Jaazania, fis a Schaphan an, te kanpe nan mitan yo, chak moun ak pwòp veso lansan li, e odè nwaj lansan an a t ap leve.
And there stood before them seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel. And in the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan, each man with his censer in his hand, and the odor of the cloud of incense went up.
12 Epi Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, èske ou wè sa ke ansyen lakay Israël yo ap komèt nan fènwa a, chak moun nan chanm a pwòp imaj taye li? Paske men ki sa y ap di: ‘SENYÈ a pa wè nou. SENYÈ a fin abandone peyi a.’”
Then he said to me, Son of man, have thou seen what the elders of the house of Israel do in the dark, each man in his chambers of imagery? For they say, Jehovah does not see us. Jehovah has forsaken the land.
13 Epi Li te di mwen: “Malgre sa, ou va wè abominasyon ki pi gwo ke y ap komèt.”
He also said to me, Thou shall again see yet other great abominations which they do.
14 Konsa, Li te mennen mwen nan antre a pòtay lakay SENYÈ a ki te vè nò; epi vwala, te gen fanm la ki t ap kriye pou Thammuz.
Then he brought me to the door of the gate of Jehovah's house which was toward the north. And, behold, there sat the women weeping for Tammuz.
15 Li te di mwen: “Èske ou wè sa, fis a lòm? Malgre sa, ou va wè pi gwo abominasyon ke sa yo.”
Then he said to me, Have thou seen this, O son of man? Thou shall again see yet greater abominations than these.
16 Konsa, Li te mennen mwen antre nan lakou enteryè lakay SENYÈ a. Epi vwala, nan antre tanp SENYÈ a, antre galri ak lotèl la, anviwon venn-senk òm, avèk do yo bay tanp SENYÈ a, e figi yo vè lès. Epi yo t ap pwostène yo nan lès vè solèy la.
And he brought me into the inner court of Jehovah's house. And, behold, at the door of the temple of Jehovah, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs toward the temple of Jehovah, and their faces toward the east, and they were worshiping the sun toward the east.
17 Li te di mwen: “Èske ou wè sa, fis a lòm? Èske se yon bagay twò piti pou lakay Juda ta komèt abominasyon ke yo te komèt isit la? Paske yo te ranpli peyi a ak vyolans e te pwovoke M plizyè fwa? Gade byen, y ap vekse M menm ak ti branch bwa yo poze sou nen yo.
Then he said to me, Have thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? For they have filled the land with violence, and have turned again to provoke me to anger. And, lo, they put the branch to their nose.
18 Akoz sa, anverite, Mwen va aji ak gwo kòlè. Zye m p ap gen pitye, ni Mwen p ap epanye pèsòn. Malgre yo kriye nan zòrèy Mwen ak gwo vwa, malgre sa, Mwen p ap koute yo.”
Therefore I will also deal in wrath. My eye shall not spare, nor will I have pity. And though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, yet I will not hear them.
