< Ezekiel 11 >

1 And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of Jehovah's house, which looketh eastward; and behold, at the door of the gate were five and twenty men; and I saw in the midst of them Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
Anplis, Lespri a te leve m monte e te mennen mwen nan pòtay lès lakay SENYÈ a ki te anfas vè lès. Epi gade byen, venn-senk mesye nan antre pòtay la e pami yo, mwen te wè Jaazania, fis a Azzur a ak Pelathia, fis a Benaja a, chèf yo a pèp la.
2 And he said unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise iniquity, and give wicked counsel in this city:
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, sila yo se mesye yo ki fè plan inikite e ki bay move konsèy nan vil sa a,
3 who say, It is not the time to build houses: this is the cauldron, and we are the flesh.
ka p di: ‘Tan pou bati kay yo pa pwòch. Vil sa a se chodyè a e nou se chè a.’
4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, son of man.
Akoz sa, pwofetize kont yo, fis a lòm. Se pou ou pwofetize!”
5 And the Spirit of Jehovah fell on me, and said unto me, Speak, Thus saith Jehovah: Thus have ye said, O house of Israel; and the things that come into your mind, I know them.
Lespri SENYÈ a te tonbe sou mwen e Li te di mwen: “Pale konsa, ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Konsa ou reflechi, o lakay Israël, paske Mwen konnen panse nou yo.
6 Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain.
Nou te miltipliye moun ki touye yo nan vil sa a, e plen ri yo nèt avèk yo.”
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and it is the cauldron; but you will I bring forth out of the midst of it.
“‘Pou sa, pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Moun touye nou yo ke nou te fè kouche nan mitan vil la, se chè a, e vil la se chodyè a; men nou va mennen sòti ladann.
8 Ye have feared the sword, and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
Nou te pè yon nepe. Pou sa, mwen va mennen yon nepe rive sou nou,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
9 And I will bring you out of the midst of it, and give you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
“Epi Mwen va mennen nou sòti nan mitan vil la. Mwen va delivre nou nan men a etranje yo, e egzekite jijman kont nou.
10 Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the borders of Israel; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
Nou va tonbe pa nepe. Mwen va jije nou jis rive nan lizyè Israël la. Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.
11 This shall not be your cauldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst of it: I will judge you in the borders of Israel;
Vil la p ap yon chodyè pou nou, ni nou p ap chè nan mitan l. Men Mwen va jije nou jis rive nan lizyè Israël la.
12 and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah, in whose statutes ye have not walked, neither have done mine ordinances, but have done after the ordinances of the nations that are round about you.
Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, paske nou pa t mache nan règleman Mwen yo. Ni nou pa t swiv lalwa Mwen yo, men nou te aji selon lalwa a nasyon sila ki antoure nou yo.”’”
13 And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. And I fell down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah, Lord Jehovah! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
Alò, li te vin rive ke pandan mwen t ap pwofetize a, ke Pelathia, fis a Benaja a, te mouri. Epi mwen te tonbe sou figi mwen, mwen te kriye fò ak yon gwo vwa e mwen te di: “Anmwey, Senyè BONDYE! Èske Ou va mennen retay Israël la pou fin detwi nèt?”
14 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di:
15 Son of man, [it is] thy brethren, thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel, the whole of it, unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem say, Get you far from Jehovah: unto us is this land given for a possession.
“Fis a lòm, frè ou yo, fanmi ou yo, egzile parèy ou yo ak tout lakay Israël la, yo tout, se moun a sila abitan Jérusalem yo te di: ‘Ale lwen SENYÈ a; peyi sa a te bay a nou kon posesyon.’”
16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Although I have removed them far off among the nations, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries whither they are come.
“Akoz sa, ou va di: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Byenke mwen te deplase yo byen lwen pami nasyon yo e byenke mwen te gaye yo pami peyi yo, malgre mwen va yon abri pou yo pou yon ti tan nan peyi kote yo rive yo.”’
17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will even gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where ye are scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
“Akoz sa, ou va di: ‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Mwen va ranmase nou soti nan pèp yo, Mwen va rasanble nou sòti nan peyi pami sila nou te gaye yo, e Mwen va bannou peyi Israël la.”
18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away from thence all its detestable things and all its abominations.
“‘Lè yo vini la, yo va retire tout bagay abominab li yo ak tout abominasyon li yo sòti ladann.
19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take away the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh;
Konsa, Mwen va bay yo yon sèl kè e Mwen va mete yon lespri nèf anndan yo. Epi Mwen va retire kè wòch ki nan chè yo a, e Mwen va bay yo yon kè ki fèt ak chè,
20 that they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
pou yo ka mache nan règleman Mwen yo e kenbe lalwa Mwen yo pou fè yo. Konsa, yo va pèp Mwen e Mwen va Bondye yo.
21 But as for them whose heart walketh well-pleased with their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their heads, saith the Lord Jehovah.
Men pou sila ak kè k ap swiv bagay abominab yo ak abominasyon yo, Mwen va mennen kondwit yo desann sou tèt yo,” deklare “Senyè BONDYE a.”
22 And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and the wheels were beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
Epi cheriben yo te leve zèl yo ak wou akote yo e glwa a Bondye Israël la te vin pann sou yo.
23 And the glory of Jehovah went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
Glwa SENYÈ a te monte soti nan mitan vil la e te kanpe anwo mòn ki nan pati lès vil la.
24 And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity; and the vision that I had seen went up from me.
Epi Lespri a te fè m leve e te mennen mwen nan yon vizyon pa Lespri Bondye a, bò kote egzile Chaldée yo. Se konsa vizyon mwen te wè a, te kite mwen.
25 And I spoke unto them of the captivity all the things that Jehovah had shewn me.
Epi mwen te di egzile yo tout bagay ke SENYÈ a te montre mwen.
