Ezekiel 11

1 Moreover, the Spirite lift me vp, and brought me vnto the East gate of the Lordes house, which lyeth Eastwarde, and beholde, at the entrie of the gate were fiue and twentie men: among whome I sawe Iaazaniah the sonne of Azur, and Pelatiah the sonne of Benaiah, the princes of the people.

Apre sa, Lespri Bondye a pran m', li leve m' anlè, li mennen m' bò gwo pòtay tanp lan ki bay sou solèy leve. Toupre pòtay la, mwen wè vennsenk gason. Pami yo te gen de chèf peyi a, Jazanya, pitit gason Azou a, ak Pelatya, pitit gason Benaja a.

2 Then said he vnto me, Sonne of man, these are the men that imagine mischiefe, and deuise wicked counsell in this citie.

Bondye di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Mesye sa yo gen move lide ap travay dèyè tèt yo. Y'ap bay move konsèy nan lavil la.

3 For they say, It is not neere, let vs builde houses: this citie is the caldron, and wee be the flesh.

Y'ap plede di: Talè konsa nou p'ap ka bati kay ankò! Lavil la tankou yon chodyè sou dife, nou menm, nou tankou vyann ladan l'. Nou pa bezwen fè anyen kote nou ye a.

4 Therefore prophesie against them, sonne of man, prophesie.

Se poutèt sa, nonm o! Men mesaj m'ap ba ou pou ou di sou yo.

5 And the Spirite of the Lord fell vpon me, and said vnto me, Speake, Thus saith the Lord, O ye house of Israel, this haue ye said, and I know that which riseth vp of your mindes.

Lespri Seyè a desann sou mwen ankò. Seyè a ban m' lòd pou m' bay pèp la mesaj sa a: -Nou menm fanmi Izrayèl la, mwen konnen sa n'ap di, mwen konnen lide nou gen dèyè tèt nou.

6 Many haue ye murthered in this citie, and ye haue filled the streets thereof with the slaine.

Nou sitèlman touye moun isit nan lavil la, lari yo plen kadav.

7 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, They that ye haue slaine, and haue layed in the middes of it, they are the flesh, and this citie is the caldron, but I wil bring you foorth of the mids of it.

Konsa, men sa mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, m'ap di nou: Wi, lavil la tankou yon chodyè. Men kisa ki vyann lan? Se kadav moun nou touye yo! Nou menm menm m'ap fè yo mete nou deyò nan lavil la.

8 Ye haue feared the sworde, and I wil bring a sworde vpon you, saith the Lord God.

Nou pè lagè, pa vre? Enben, m'ap voye lagè sou nou! Se mwen menm menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.

9 And I will bring you out of the middes thereof, and deliuer you into the hands of strangers, and will execute iudgements among you.

M'ap fè yo mete nou deyò nan lavil la. M'ap lage nou nan men moun lòt nasyon yo. M'ap pini nou jan m' te pwomèt nou sa a.

10 Ye shall fall by the sworde, and I wil iudge you in the border of Israel, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lord.

N'ap mouri nan lagè nan mitan peyi nou an. Se la m'ap pini nou. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.

11 This citie shall not be your caldron, neyther shall ye be the flesh in the middes thereof, but I will iudge you in the border of Israel.

Lavil sa a p'ap pwoteje nou jan chodyè pwoteje vyann ki ladan l'. Se nan mitan peyi Izrayèl la menm m'ap pini nou.

12 And ye shall knowe that I am the Lord: for ye haue not walked in my statutes, neither executed my iudgements, but haue done after the maners of the heathen, that are round about you.

Wi, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a. Pase pou nou te swiv lòd mwen yo, pase pou n' te fè sa m' mande nou fè, nou te pito swiv vye mès pèp k'ap viv nan peyi ki bò kote nou yo.

13 And when I prophesied, Pelatiah the sonne of Benaiah dyed: then fell I downe vpon my face, and cryed with a loude voyce, and saide, Ah Lord God, wilt thou then vtterly destroy all the remnant of Israel?

Antan m'ap bay mesaj la, Pelatya, pitit gason Benaja a, tonbe li mouri frèt. Mwen lage kò m' ajenou, mwen bese tèt mwen jouk atè, mwen rele byen fò, mwen di: -O Seyè, Bondye sèl Mèt la! Eske ou pral touye ti rès moun ki rete nan pèp Izrayèl la?

14 Againe the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di:

15 Sonne of man, thy brethren, euen thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel, wholy are they vnto whome the inhabitants of Ierusalem haue said, Depart ye farre from the Lord: for the lande is giuen vs in possession.

-Nonm o! Moun ki rete lavil Jerizalèm yo ap pale sou ou, sou frè ou, sou fanmi ou, sou tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo te depòte yo. Y'ap di: Moun yo depòte yo twò lwen pou yo ka fè sèvis pou Seyè a, se konsa Seyè a ban nou peyi a pou rele nou pa nou.

16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God, Although I haue cast them farre off among the heathen, and although I haue scattered them among the countreis, yet wil I be to them as a litle Sanctuarie in ye countreis where they shall come.

Se poutèt sa, men mesaj Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, bay pou moun yo depòte yo. Wi, se mwen menm ki te voye yo al viv byen lwen nan mitan lòt nasyon yo, mwen gaye yo nan yon bann lòt peyi. Men, m'ap toujou la avèk yo nan peyi kote yo ale a tankou si m' te nan kay yo mete apa pou mwen an.

17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God, I will gather you againe from the people, and assemble you out of the countreis where ye haue bene scattered, and I will giue you ye land of Israel.

Se poutèt sa, men sa mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, m'ap di yo: M'ap pran yo nan mitan nasyon kote mwen te gaye yo a, m'ap sanble yo. M'ap fè yo soti kite peyi sa yo, m'ap ba yo peyi Izrayèl la ankò pou yo.

18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the idoles thereof, and all the abominations thereof from thence.

Lè y'a tounen, y'a wete tout vye zidòl y'a jwenn ansanm ak tout vye bagay derespektan ki t'ap fèt nan peyi a.

19 And I will giue them one heart, and I will put a newe spirit within their bowels: and I will take the stonie heart out of their bodies, and will giue them an heart of flesh,

M'ap ba yo yon lòt kè, yon lòt lespri. M'ap wete kè di kou wòch yo te genyen nan lestonmak yo a, m'ap ba yo yon kè ki gen bon santiman.

20 That they may walke in my statutes, and keepe my iudgements, and execute them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

Konsa, y'a mache dapre lòd m'a ba yo. Y'a fè tou sa m'a mande yo fè. Y'a koute m' lè m'a pale yo. Se pèp pa m' lan menm yo pral ye, mwen menm mwen pral Bondye yo.

21 But vpon them, whose heart is towarde their idoles, and whose affection goeth after their abominations, I will lay their way vpon their owne heades, saith the Lord God.

Men, m'ap pini moun ki pa vle lage vye zidòl yo, ki toujou soti pou yo fè vye bagay derespektan yo. M'ap pini yo pou sa yo fè. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki pale.

22 Then did the Cherubims lift vp their wings, and the wheeles besides them, and the glorie of the God of Israel was vpon them on hie.

Bèt vivan yo pran vole, wou yo pati ansanm ak yo. Bèl limyè prezans Bondye pèp Izrayèl la te anwo yo.

23 And the glorie of the Lord went vp from the middes of the citie, and stoode vpon the moutaine which is towarde the East side of the citie.

Bèl limyè prezans Seyè a soti kite lavil la, li ale poze sou mòn ki te sou bò solèy leve a.

24 Afterwarde the Spirite tooke me vp, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Caldea to them that were led away captiues: so the vision that I had seene, went vp from me.

Nan vizyon an toujou, mwen wè lespri Bondye a pran m', li mennen m' tounen lavil Babilòn nan mitan moun yo te depòte yo. Lèfini, vizyon an disparèt.

25 Then I declared vnto them that were led away captiues, all the things that the Lord had shewed me.

Mwen rakonte moun yo te depòte yo tou sa Seyè a te fè m' wè.
