< Ezekiel 16 >

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
2 Son of man, make known to Jerusalem her abominations.
-Nonm o! Fè moun lavil Jerizalèm yo rekonèt tout vye bagay derespektan yo te fè yo.
3 And thou shalt say: Thus saith the Lord God to Jerusalem: Thy root, and thy nativity is of the land of Chanaan, thy father was an Amorrhite, and thy mother a Cethite.
W'a di moun lavil Jerizalèm yo men mesaj Seyè sèl Mèt la voye ba yo: Nou se moun peyi Kanaran, se la nou fèt. Papa nou te yon moun peyi Amori, manman nou yon moun peyi Et.
4 And when thou wast born, in the day of thy nativity thy navel wits not cut, neither wast thou washed with water for thy health, nor salted with salt, nor swaddled with clouts.
Jou ou soti nan vant manman ou lan, yo pa t' koupe kòd lonbrit ou, yo pa t' lave ou nan dlo pou yo te pwòpte ou, yo pa t' fwote ou ak gwo sèl, yo pa t' menm vlope ou nan moso kòt.
5 No eye had pity on thee to do any of these things for thee, out of compassion to thee: but thou wast cast out upon the face of the earth in the abjection of thy soul, in the day that thou wast born.
Pesonn pa t' gen pitye pou ou pou yo te rann ou yonn nan ti sèvis sa yo. Lè ou te fèt la, pesonn pa t' vle wè ou, yo voye ou jete nan jaden.
6 And passing by thee, I saw that thou wast trodden under foot in thy own blood. and I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood: Live: I have said to thee: Live in thy blood.
Mwen vin ap pase bò la, mwen wè ou t'ap benyen nan san ou. Atout ou t'ap benyen nan san ou, mwen di mwen p'ap kite ou mouri, se pou ou viv.
7 I caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field: and thou didst increase and grow great, and advancedst, and camest to woman’s ornament: thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair grew: and thou wast naked, and full of confusion.
Se pou ou grandi tankou yon plant nan jaden. Ou grandi, ou fòme, ou vin yon bèl jenn fi. Tete ou yo te byen kanpe, pwal te pouse sou kò ou. Men, ou te toutouni.
8 And I passed by thee, and saw thee: and behold thy time was the time of lovers: and I spread my garment over thee, and covered thy ignominy. And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine.
Mwen vin ap pase bò la ankò, mwen wè ou. Ou te rive laj pou ou te renmen. Mwen louvri gwo varèz mwen an sou ou, mwen kouvri kò ou ki te toutouni an. Mwen fè sèman m'ap toujou renmen ou. Wi, mwen pase kontra maryaj avè ou. Se konsa ou vin madanm mwen. Se Seyè ki sèl mèt la ki di sa.
9 And I washed thee with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I anointed thee with oil.
Apre sa, mwen pran dlo, mwen lave ou, mwen wete tout san ki te sou kò ou. Mwen basinen ou ak lwil santi bon.
10 And I clothed thee with embroidery, and shed thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.
Mwen mete bèl rad bwode sou ou, yon pè soulye fèt ak po bazann nan pye ou, yon bèl moso twal fin blan mare nan ren ou, ak yon chal swa.
11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.
Mwen kouvri ou ak bijou, mwen mete braslè nan ponyèt ou, m' pase bèl chenn nan kou ou.
12 And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.
Mwen mete yon grenn zanno nan nen ou, yon pè zanno nan zòrèy ou ak yon bèl kouwòn sou tèt ou.
13 And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine hour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen.
Ou te plen bijou lò ak bijou ajan. Ou te toujou mete bèl rad twal fin ak rad swa byen bwode sou ou. Ou manje pen ki fèt ak pi bon kalite farin ansanm ak siwo myèl ak lwil. Chak jou ou vin pi bèl, jouk ou rive larenn.
14 And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.
Nan tout lòt nasyon yo, yo t'ap nonmen non ou pou jan ou te bèl. Pou bèl ou pa t' ka pi bèl pase sa paske se mwen menm ki te fè ou bèl konsa. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
15 But trusting in thy beauty, thou playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and thou hast prostituted thyself to every passenger, to be his.
Men, ou kite bèlte ou la fè ou pèdi tèt ou. Ou pwofite dèske tout moun ap nonmen non ou lan pou ou lage kò ou nan dezòd, ou kouche ak dènye moun k'ap pase. Ou lage kò ou ba yo.
16 And taking of thy garments thou hast made thee high places sewed together on each side: and hast played the harlot upon them, as hath not been done before, nor shall be hereafter.
Ou pran bèl rad koulè ou yo, ou dekore kote w'ap fè sèvis pou lòt bondye sou tèt mòn yo. Tankou yon fanm k'ap fè jennès, ou kouche la ak dènye moun ki vini.
17 And thou tookest thy beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication with them.
Ou pran bijou lò ak bijou ajan mwen te ba ou yo, ou bay yo pou yo fè estati gason. Epi ou kouche ak estati yo.
18 And thou tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them.
Ou biye estati ou yo ak bèl rad bwode mwen te ba ou yo. Ou pran lwil ak lansan ki te pou mwen yo, ou ofri yo bay estati ou yo.
19 And my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God.
Mwen te ba ou pi bon kalite farin pou fè pen pou ou manje ansanm ak siwo myèl ak lwil. Ou pran yo, ou ofri yo bay zidòl ou yo, ou boule yo nan dife pou yo te ka ba ou chans. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di wi, se sa ou fè.
20 And thou hast taken thy sons, and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me: and best sacrificed the same to them to be devoured. Is thy fornication small?
Apre sa, ou pran pitit gason ak pitit fi ou te fè pou mwen yo, ou al ofri yo bay zidòl yo pou zidòl yo te manje yo. Sa pa t' ase pou ou te lage kò ou nan tout dezòd sa yo
21 Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire.
kifè ou te bezwen koupe kou pitit mwen yo, lèfini pou ou te boule yo nan dife pou zidòl ou yo?
22 And after all thy abominations, and fornications, thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked, and full of confusion, trodden under foot in thy own blood.
Pandan tout tan ou t'ap viv nan dezòd sa a, ou pa janm chonje lè ou te piti, lè ou te toutouni ap benyen nan san ou lan?
23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness (woe, woe to thee, saith the Lord God)
Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: -Madichon, madichon pou ou! Lè ou fin fè tout mechanste sa yo,
24 That thou didst also build thee a common stew, and madest thee a brothel house in every street.
sou tout rebò granchemen yo, ou bati tanp pou sèvi zidòl ou yo, pou fè metye jennès ou a.
25 At every head of the way thou hast set up a sign of thy prostitution: and hast made thy beauty to be abominable: and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and hast multiplied thy fornications.
Nan chak kalfou granchemen, ou bati yon tanp kote ou trennen bèlte ou la nan labou. W'ap ofri tèt ou bay dènye moun k'ap pase. Chak jou ou te vin pi mal.
26 And thou hast committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, men of large bodies, and hast multiplied thy fornications to provoke me.
W' al kouche ak moun peyi Lejip yo, vwazen ou yo ki gwonèg anpil. Ou fè, ou fè jouk ou fè m' fache.
27 Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the Philistines that hate thee, that are ashamed of thy wicked way.
Se konsa, mwen lonje men m' sou ou pou m' pini ou, mwen koupe moso nan sa ki te vin pou ou a. Mwen lage ou nan men lènmi ou yo, moun peyi Filisti yo, ki pa t' ka santi tout vye bagay sal ou t'ap fè yo.
28 Thou hast also committed fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast not yet satisfied: and after thou hadst played the harlot with them, even so thou wast not contented.
Men moun sa yo pa t' ba ou kont plezi ou, ou kouri al jwenn moun peyi Lasiri yo. Ou kouche ak yo. Men yo menm tou, yo pa t' ba ou kont plezi ou.
29 Thou hast also multiplied thy fornications in the land of Chanaan with the Chaldeans: and neither so wast then satisfied.
W' al fè jennès ak moun Babilòn yo, gwo kòmèsan sa yo. Men yo menm tou, yo pa t' ba ou kont plezi ou!
30 Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?
Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: Se pa ti move mwen pa t' move sou ou! Ou fè tou sa tankou yon jennès je kale.
31 Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price,
Ou bati yon lotèl repozwa nan chak kalfou granchemen. Ou bati tanp sou tout rebò granchemen yo. Men, se pa t' dèyè lajan ou te ye tankou lòt fanm k'ap fè jennès yo.
32 But as an adulteress, that bringeth in strangers over her husband.
Ou te tankou yon madan marye ki nan dezòd, ki pito fè bèl ak lòt gason pase pou li renmen mari l'.
33 Gifts are given to all harlots: but thou hast given hire to all thy lovers, and thou hast given them gifts to come to thee from every side, to commit fornication with thee.
Yon jennès se peye yo peye sa. Men ou menm, se ou menm ki bay nonm ou yo kado, se ou menm k'ap ofri yo lajan pou yo soti toupatou vin kouche avè ou.
34 And it hath happened in thee contrary to the custom of women in thy fornications, and after thee there shall be no such fornication: for in that thou gavest rewards, and didst not take rewards, the contrary hath been done in thee.
Ou pa t' tankou lòt fanm k'ap fè jennès yo. Pesonn pa t' fòse ou fè sa. Yo pa t' peye ou pou sa. Se ou ki t'ap peye moun vin kouche avè ou! Non! Ou pa t' tankou lòt jennès yo!
35 Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord.
Koulye a, Jerizalèm, gwo jennès, koute sa Seyè a ap di:
36 Thus saith the Lord God: Because thy money hath been poured out, and thy shame discovered through thy fornications with thy lovers, and with the idols of thy abominations, by the blood of thy children whom thou gavest them:
Men mesaj Seyè sèl Mèt la voye ba ou: Ou wete tout rad sou ou. Ou rete toutouni nèt pou ou te kouche ak nonm ou yo, ansanm ak tout vye zidòl mwen pa vle wè yo. Lèfini, ou touye pitit ou yo, ou ofri yo bay zidòl.
37 Behold, I will gather together all thy lovers with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou hast hated: and I will gather them together against thee on every side, and will discover thy shame in their sight, and they shall see all thy nakedness.
Poutèt tou sa, mwen pral reyini tout ansyen nonm ou yo ki te konn pran plezi yo avè ou, ni sa ou te renmen yo, ni sa ou te rayi yo. M'ap fè yo vin fè wonn bò kote ou. Mwen pral wete dènye rad ki sou ou. Mwen pral kite ou toutouni devan je yo.
38 And I will judge thee as adulteresses, and they that shed blood are judged: and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.
M'ap pini ou menm jan yo pini fanm k'ap fè adiltè, ak fanm ki touye moun. M'ap fache, m'ap move, m'ap bay lòd pou yo touye ou.
39 And I will deliver thee into their hands, and they shall destroy thy brothel house, and throw down thy stews: and they shall strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.
M'ap lage ou nan men yo, yo pral demoli dènye lotèl repozwa ou fè pou zidòl ou yo, kote w'ap fè jennès la. Y'ap wete tout rad sou ou, y'ap pran tout bijou ou yo, y'ap kite ou toutouni.
40 And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords.
Yo pral moute tèt yon foul moun pou yo touye ou ak kout wòch, y'ap filange ou ak nepe yo.
41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.
Y'ap boule tout kay ou yo, y'ap pini ou devan yon foul medam. M'ap fè ou sispann fè jennès, m'ap fè ou sispann bay nonm ou yo kado.
42 And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.
Apre sa, mwen p'ap move sou ou ankò. M'a sispann fè jalouzi. Mwen p'ap fache ankò.
43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.
Ou pa t' chonje jan m' te aji avè ou lè ou te jenn lan. Ou te fè m' move anpil pou tou sa ou te fè yo. Se poutèt sa mwen te fè ou peye pou tout. Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki di sa. Poukisa ou fè tout dezòd vakabonday sa yo mete sou tout lòt bagay derespektan ou fè yo?
44 Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.
Seyè a di ankò: Koulye a moun ki renmen fè pwovèb yo pral bay yonn sou do lavil Jerizalèm. Yo pral di: Joumou pa donnen kalbas. Pitit fi a ap soti tankou manman l'.
45 Thou art thy mother’s daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.
Wi, ou se pitit manman ou vre. Li pa t' vle wè ni mari l' ni pitit li yo. Ou menm moun ak sè ou yo. Yo menm tou, yo pa t' vle wè ni mari yo, ni pitit yo. Se yon fanm peyi Et ki te manman nou tout. Se yon moun peyi Amori ki te papa nou.
46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.
Gran sè ou la rete nan nò. Se lavil Samari ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki sou kont li yo. Ti sè ou la rete nan sid. Se lavil Sodòm ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki sou kont li yo.
47 But neither hast thou walked in their ways, nor hast thou done a little less than they according to their wickednesses: thou hast done almost more wicked things than they in all thy ways.
Ou mache dèyè yo pye pou pye, ou fè tout vye bagay derespektan yo fè. Men, nan tou sa ou fè yo, ou fè pi mal pase yo.
48 As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.
Se poutèt sa, jan nou konnen mwen vivan vre a, men sa mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, m'ap di ou: Sè ou la, lavil Sodòm ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki sou kont li yo, yo pa t' janm rive fè tou sa ou menm lavil Jerizalèm, ou te fè ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki sou kont ou yo.
49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.
Kisa lavil Sodòm te fè konsa? Li t'ap gonfle lestonmak li sou moun, paske li te gen kont manje pou l' manje. Yo t'ap viv kè pòpòz san pwoblèm. Men, yo pa janm lonje men bay pòv malere ak moun ki nan nesesite.
50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.
Yo kite lògèy vire lòlòj yo, yo fè tèt di, yo fè bagay yo konnen mwen pa vle wè moun fè. Se poutèt sa mwen disparèt yo, jan ou konnen l' lan.
51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.
Lavil Samari menm pa t' fè mwatye nan sa ou fè. Ou fè plis bagay derespektan pase l'. Ou fè sè ou yo pase pou inonsan bò kote ou.
52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.
Ou pral wont tèt ou pou sa ou fè. Ou sitèlman fè peche ki pi lèd pase sa sè ou yo fè a, ou ba yo rezon, yo parèt inonsan bò kote ou. Wi, se pou ou wont. Se pou ou kache figi ou, paske ou fè sè ou yo pase pou inonsan bò kote ou.
53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.
Seyè a pale ak lavil Jerizalèm, li di l' konsa: -M'ap mete yo kanpe ankò, lavil Sodòm ak lavil Samari ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki sou kont yo. Bout pou bout, ou menm tou m'ap mete ou kanpe ankò.
54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.
Ou pral wont tèt ou pou tou sa ou te fè. Yo pral pale ou mal. Sè ou yo pral wè yo pa pi mal pase sa. Sa pral yon konsolasyon pou yo.
55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.
Lavil Sodòm ak tout ti bouk li yo pral kanpe ankò jan yo te ye anvan an. Lavil Samari ak tout ti bouk li yo pral kanpe ankò jan yo te ye anvan an. Ou menm tou, lavil Jerizalèm ak tout ti bouk ou yo, nou pral kanpe ankò jan nou te ye anvan an.
56 And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth, in the day of thy pride,
Lè ou te an penpan an, èske ou pa t' konn pase Sodòm nan betiz,
57 Before thy malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides.
anvan yo te denonse tout mechanste ou yo? Koulye a, se ou menm moun Aram yo, moun Filisti yo ansanm ak lòt moun nan vwazinaj ki pa vle wè ou yo pral pase nan betiz.
58 Thou hast borne thy wickedness, and thy disgrace, saith the Lord God.
Ou pral peye pou tout bagay derespektan ak bagay mwen pa vle wè ou te fè yo. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki di sa.
59 For thus saith the Lord God: I will deal with thee, as thou hast despised the oath, in breaking the covenant:
Seyè a pale ak lavil Jerizalèm, li di l' konsa: -Mwen pral boule avè ou jan ou merite l' la, paske ou pa ka kenbe pawòl ou, ou kase kontra a.
60 And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.
Men, m'ap chonje kontra mwen te pase avè ou lè ou te jenn lan. M'ap siyen yon lòt kontra avè ou, yon kontra k'ap la pou tout tan.
61 And thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed: when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.
Ou menm, w'a chonje sa ou te fè, w'a wont lè w'a resevwa gran sè ak ti sè ou yo. M'ap ba ou yo pou pitit fi pa ou malgre sa pa t' nan kontra a.
62 And I will establish my covenant with thee: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord,
Wi, se mwen menm k'ap siyen kontra mwen an avè ou ankò. Lè sa a, w'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
63 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and mayest no more open thy mouth because of thy confusion, when I shall be pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.
M'ap padonnen ou tou sa ou te fè. Men ou menm, w'ap chonje sa ou te fè yo, w'a wont, ou p'ap ka louvri bouch ou ankò tèlman w'a wont. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki di sa.
