Ezekiel 26
1 And it happened that, in the eleventh year, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Nan premye jou mwa a nan onzyèm lanne depi yo te depòte nou an, Seyè a pale avè m', li di m' konsa:
2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said about Jerusalem: ‘It is Well! The gates of the peoples have been broken! She has been turned toward me. I will be filled. She will be deserted!’
-Nonm o! Lavil Tir pa t' manke kontan. Men sa li t'ap di sou lavil Jerizalèm: Li fini! Li pa ka fè gwo kòmès li te konn fè anvan an. Koulye a, wout kòmès la louvri gran louvri pou mwen. Pa gen anyen lavil Jerizalèm ankò.
3 because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and I will cause many nations to rise up against you, just as the waves of the sea rise up.
Enben, men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di: -M'ap leve dèyè nou tou, nou menm moun lavil Tir. Mwen pral mennen anpil nasyon vin atake nou. Yo pral vin sou nou yonn apre lòt tankou lanm lanmè.
4 And they will break apart the walls of Tyre, and they will destroy its towers. And I will scrape her dust from her, and I will make her into the barest rock.
Yo pral kraze miray ranpa lavil yo. Y'ap demoli gwo fò won yo. Lèfini, m'ap pote tout pousyè a ale. M'ap kite wòch yo griyen konsa.
5 She will be a drying place for nets from the midst of the sea. For I have spoken, says the Lord God. And she will be a spoil for the Gentiles.
Pechè yo pral mete senn cheche sou yo, la kote lavil la te kanpe nan mitan lanmè. Se mwen menm Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa. Nasyon yo pral piye lavil la.
6 Likewise, her daughters who are in the field will be slain by the sword. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
Yo pral touye tout moun k'ap viv nan lòt lavil ki nan rès peyi a ak nepe. Lè sa a, lavil Tir va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
7 For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will lead into Tyre: Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, a king among kings, from the north, with horses, and chariots, and horsemen, and companies, and a great people.
Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di: -Mwen pral voye Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, pi gran wa pase tout wa yo, vin atake Tir. L'ap soti nan nò avèk chwal, cha lagè, kavalye ak yon gwo lame sòlda.
8 Your daughters who are in the field, he will kill with the sword. And he will surround you with fortifications, and he will put together a rampart on all sides. And he will lift up a shield against you.
Li pral touye tout moun k'ap viv nan lòt lavil ki nan rès peyi a. Li pral fouye gwo kannal, li pral anpile ranblè tout arebò ou. Li pral moute yon miray ak plak fè pou pare kou.
9 And he will combine moveable shelters and battering rams before your walls, and he will destroy your towers with his armaments.
Li pral frape sou miray yo avèk gwo poto. Li pral demoli gwo fò won yo ak gwo pens fè.
10 He will cover you with the inundation of his horses and with their dust. Your walls will shake at the sound of horsemen and wheels and chariots, when they will have entered your gates, as if through the entrance of a city that has been broken open.
Tèlman pral gen chwal, chwal yo pral leve yon gwo nwaj pousyè dèyè yo ki pral kouvri lavil la. Lè kavalye l' yo ap pase sou chwal yo, lè cha lagè yo ak kabwa pwovizyon yo ap pase antre nan pòtay ou yo, miray yo pral tranble. Yo pral antre nan lavil la tankou si miray yo te tonbe.
11 With the hoofs of his horses, he will trample all your streets. He will cut down your people with the sword, and your noble statues will fall to the ground.
Nou pral tande bri zago chwal li yo nan tout lari yo. L'ap fè yo touye tout moun ak nepe. Bèl gwo poto solid ou yo pral tonbe atè.
12 They will lay waste to your wealth. They will despoil your businesses. And they will tear down your walls and overturn your eminent houses. And they will put your stones and your timber and your dust into the midst of the waters.
Yo pral pran tout richès ou yo, yo pral piye tout machandiz ou yo. Y'ap kraze tout miray ou yo, y'ap demoli tout bèl kay ou yo. Y'ap pran wòch yo, bwa yo ak tout rès demoli yo, y'ap jete yo nan lanmè.
13 And I will cause the multitude of your songs to cease. And the sound of your stringed instruments will no longer be heard.
M'ap fè nou sispann chante. Yo p'ap tande mizik gita nou yo ankò.
14 And I will make you like the barest rock; you will be a drying place for nets. And you will no longer be built up. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.”
Lavil la pral tounen yon gwo pil wòch, se la pechè yo pral cheche senn yo. Yo p'ap janm rebati lavil la ankò. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki pale. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
15 Thus says the Lord God to Tyre: “Will not the islands shake at the sound of your ruin and at the groans of your slain, when they will have been cut down in your midst?
Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye di moun lavil Tir yo: Lè lavil la va tonbe nan men lènmi l' yo, lè y'a pran masakre moun ladan l', lè moun y'ap touye yo ap rele, moun ki rete tout bò gwo lanmè a va tranble.
16 And all the leaders of the sea will descend from their thrones. And they will cast aside their outer garments and their colorful clothing, and they will be clothed in stupor. They will sit on the ground, and they will wonder with astonishment at your sudden downfall.
Tout wa peyi k'ap fè kòmès sou lanmè a ap desann soti sou fotèy yo, y'ap wete gwo manto ak bèl rad bwode ki te sou yo. Yo pral chita atè sitèlman y'ap pè. Yo pral sitèlman sezi wè sa ki rive nou, y'ap tranble san rete.
17 And taking up a lamentation over you, they will say to you: ‘How could you have perished, you who live in the sea, the famous city that was strong in the sea, with your inhabitants, of whom the whole world was in dread?’
Yo pral plenn sò ou. Yo pral di: -Gade yon malè! Gwo lavil la disparèt! Tout batiman l' yo koule! Jan moun lavil sa yo te mèt lanmè a! Yo te fè tout moun ki rete bò gwo lanmè a pè yo.
18 Now the ships will be stupefied, in the day of your terror. And the islands of the sea will be disturbed, because no one goes out from you.
Koulye a, tout moun bò gwo lanmè yo ap tranble lè y'a wè ou tonbe nan men lènmi ou yo. Wi, moun ki rete bò gwo lanmè a p'ap konn sa pou yo fè lè y'a wè jan ou fini an!
19 For thus says the Lord God: When I will have made you a desolate city, like the cities that are uninhabited, and when I will have led the abyss over you, and many waters will have covered you,
Paske, men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di: -M'ap fè ou tounen yon dezè, tankou lavil kote pa gen moun rete. M'ap fè dlo lanmè a leve dèyè ou, l'ap kouvri ou nèt ale.
20 and when I will have dragged you down with those who descend into the pit to the everlasting people, and when I will have assembled you in the lowest parts of the earth, like the desolate places of antiquity, with those who have been brought down into the pit, so that you will be uninhabited, and moreover, when I will have given glory to the land of the living:
M'ap fè nou desann nan peyi kote mò yo ye a, m'ap voye nou al jwenn moun ki mouri depi lontan yo. M'ap fè nou al rete nan peyi ki anba tè a, kote nou pral rete pou kont nou, pou tout tan ansanm ak moun ki mouri deja yo. Konsa, nou p'ap gen plas nou ankò sou latè pami vivan yo.
21 I will reduce you to nothing, and you shall not be, and if you are sought, you will no longer be found, in perpetuity, says the Lord God.”
Mwen pral fè tout moun pè lè yo wè sa ki rive nou. Se konsa n'a fini. Moun va chache nou, men yo p'ap janm jwenn nou. Se Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa.
