Ezayi 3
1 Paske gade byen, Senyè BONDYE dèzame yo va retire sou Jérusalem ak Juda ni sipò, ni mwayen materyo, tout sa ki pou founi pen e tout sa ki pou founi dlo;
For look, the Lord Jehovah of hosts takes away from Jerusalem and from Judah supply and support, the whole supply of bread, and the whole supply of water;
2 Nonm pwisan an, gèrye la, jij ak pwofèt la, divinò a ak ansyen an,
the mighty man, the man of war, the judge, the prophet, the diviner, the elder,
3 Kapitèn dè senkant yo, nonm ki resevwa onè a, konseye a, atizan an, ak sila ki fò nan fè wanga a.
the captain of fifty, the honorable man, the counselor, the skilled craftsman, and the clever enchanter.
4 Konsa, Mwen va fè senp tigason yo vin chèf sou yo, e timoun san kontwòl yo va vin renye sou yo.
And I will make youths to be their leaders, and capricious children shall rule over them.
5 Epi pèp la va oprime, youn pa yon lòt e chak pa vwazen li; jenn yo va fè rebèl kont granmoun yo e sila ki enferyè a kont sila ki gen onè a.
The people will be oppressed, everyone by another, and everyone by his neighbor. The child will behave himself proudly against the old man, and the base against the honorable.
6 Lè yon nonm mete men l sou frè l lakay papa l, epi di: “Se ou ki gen manto a, se ou k ap chèf nou an, e tout miray kraze sa yo va anba pouvwa ou”,
Indeed a man shall take hold of his brother in the house of his father, saying, "You have clothing, you be our ruler, and let this ruin be under your control."
7 Nan jou sa a, li va diskite ak yo e li va di: “Se pa mwen menm k ap geri nou an; paske lakay mwen pa gen ni pen, ni manto; se pa mwen menm pou nou ta chwazi chèf sou pèp la.”
In that day he will cry out, saying, I will not be a healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing. You shall not make me ruler of the people.
8 Paske Jérusalem chape glise e Juda fin tonbe akoz pawòl ak zak yo kont SENYÈ a; pou yo fè rebèl kont prezans sen Li an.
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen; because their tongue and their doings are against Jehovah, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
9 Vizaj figi yo fè temwen kont yo, e yo montre tout moun peche yo tankou Sodome. Yo pa menm kache sa a. Malè a yo menm! Paske yo mennen mal la vin tonbe sou yo.
The look of their faces testify against them. They parade their sin like Sodom. They do not hide it. Woe to their soul. For they have brought disaster upon themselves.
10 Di a moun dwat yo sa prale byen pou yo, paske yo va manje fwi a zèv yo.
Tell the righteous "Good." For they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.
11 Malè a mechan an! Sa prale mal pou li. Paske sa li merite a, se sa k ap rive li.
Woe to the wicked. Disaster is upon them; for the work of his hands will be done to him.
12 O pèp Mwen an! Moun ki oprime yo se timoun ak fanm ki gouvène sou yo. O pèp Mwen an! Sila k ap gide ou yo, egare ou, e konfonn direksyon chemen nou yo.
As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. My people, those who lead you cause you to err, and destroy the way of your paths.
13 Se SENYÈ a ki parèt kon advèsè yo e ki kanpe pou jije pèp la.
Jehovah stands up to contend, and stands to judge his people.
14 SENYÈ a antre nan jijman ak ansyen ak prens a pèp Li a. “Se nou ki te devore chan rezen an; piyaj malere a fèt anndan lakay nou.
Jehovah will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and their leaders: "It is you who have eaten up the vineyard. The spoil of the poor is in your houses.
15 Se kilès ki bannou dwa pou kraze pèp Mwen an, e foule figi malere yo?” SENYÈ dèzame yo pale.
What do you mean that you crush my people, and grind the face of the poor?" says Jehovah of hosts.
16 Anplis SENYÈ a di: “Akoz fi a Sion yo ògeye, mache ak tèt anlè ak zye k ap sedwi, mache ak ti pa kout pou atire zye gason, e fè sone tout ti son braslè sou pye yo.
Moreover Jehovah said, "Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with outstretched necks and flirting eyes, walking to trip as they go, jingling ornaments on their feet;
17 Pou sa, SENYÈ a va aflije tèt fi a Sion yo ak kal, e SENYÈ a va fè tèt yo chòv.”
therefore Jehovah brings sores on the crown of the head of the women of Zion, and Jehovah will make their scalps bald."
18 Nan jou sa a, SENYÈ a va retire bèlte a braslè pye yo, bando sou tèt yo, dekorasyon kwasan yo,
In that day Jehovah will take away the beauty of their anklets, the headbands, the crescent necklaces,
19 zanno zòrèy yo, braslè yo, vwal yo,
the earrings, the bracelets, the veils,
20 dekorasyon tèt yo, chenn nan pye yo, bèl twal sentiwon yo ak bwat pafen yo, bwòch yo,
the headdresses, the ankle chains, the sashes, the perfume bottles, the charms,
21 bag dwèt yo, zanno nen yo.
the signet rings, the nose rings,
22 Vètman gwo fèt yo, gwo manto yo, bous lajan yo,
the fine robes, the capes, the cloaks, the purses,
23 miwa men yo, ti sou-vètman yo, tiban yo, ak vwal yo.
the hand mirrors, the fine linen garments, the tiaras, and the shawls.
24 Epi li va fin rive ke olye sant pafen dous, ap gen move odè pouriti; olye se sentiwon, ap gen yon kòd; olye se cheve swa byen ranje, ap gen yon tèt chòv; olye se bèl vètman, ya mete twal sak; epi y ap pote etanp sou kò pou ranplase bote.
It shall happen that instead of sweet spices, there shall be rottenness; instead of a belt, a rope; instead of well set hair, baldness; instead of a robe, a girding of sackcloth; and branding instead of beauty.
25 Gason nou yo va tonbe devan nepe, ak moun pwisan nou yo nan batay.
Your men shall fall by the sword, and your mighty in the war.
26 Epi pòtay vil la va kriye fò ak lamantasyon, doulè ak dezolasyon nèt. Li va chita atè.
Her gates shall lament and mourn; and she shall be desolate and sit on the ground.
