Ezekyèl 13
1 Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
2 -Nonm o! Denonse pwofèt pèp Izrayèl yo. Denonse moun sa yo k'ap bay mesaj yo menm yo fè. Di yo: Manyè koute pawòl Seyè a.
Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own heart, Hear ye the word of Jehovah:
3 Men mesaj Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di: Madichon pou bann pwofèt egare sa yo! Se yo menm ki fè mesaj y'ap bay la. Yo pa janm fè ankenn vizyon vre.
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah, Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 Moun Izrayèl yo, koute: Pwofèt nou yo p'ap sèvi nou anyen, se tankou chat mawon k'ap viv nan vye kay kraze.
O Israel, thy prophets have been like foxes in the waste places.
5 Yo pa t' moute lagad kote miray la te make kraze a, ni yo pa t' rebati miray yo. Konsa, moun Izrayèl yo pa gen defans lè lagè va pete jou jijman Seyè a.
Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither built up the wall for the house of Israel, to stand in the battle in the day of Jehovah.
6 Vizyon y'ap fè yo se pou twonpe moun, mesaj y'ap bay yo se manti. Yo pretann di se mesaj Bondye y'ap bay. Men, se pa mwen menm ki janm pale ak yo. Lèfini, yo konprann pou m' fè sa yo di k'ap rive a rive vre.
They have seen falsehood and lying divination, that say, Jehovah saith; but Jehovah hath not sent them: and they have made men to hope that the word would be confirmed.
7 Mwen tou di yo: Vizyon y'ap fè yo se tèt yo y'ap twonpe. Mesaj y'ap bay yo se manti. Y'ap plede di men mesaj Bondye bay. Men, mwen pa t' janm pale ake yo.
Have ye not seen a false vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, in that ye say, Jehovah saith; albeit I have not spoken?
8 Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di yo: Se twonpe n'ap twonpe moun ak pawòl nou yo. Tout vizyon nou yo se manti. Se poutèt sa m'ap leve dèyè nou tou! Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because ye have spoken falsehood, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
9 Mwen pral pini pwofèt k'ap fè vizyon pou twonpe moun, k'ap bay mesaj ki pa laverite. p'ap gen plas pou yo lè pèp la va reyini. Yo p'ap gen non yo sou lis fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo. Yo p'ap janm tounen nan peyi a ankò. Lè sa a, y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la.
And my hand shall be against the prophets that see false visions, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the council of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord Jehovah.
10 Pwofèt yo ap woule pèp mwen an. Anyen p'ap mache nan peyi a. Yo menm menm, y'ap plede di tout bagay ap mache byen. Pèp la ap moute yon miray wòch san mòtye, pwofèt yo menm vini, yo blanchi l' ak dlo lacho.
Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there is no peace; and when one buildeth up a wall, behold, they daub it with untempered [mortar]:
11 Di moun k'ap pase dlo lacho sou miray la: Miray la pral tonbe. Mwen pral voye yon gwo lapli. Lagrèl pral tonbe, yon gwo van tanpèt pral soufle.
say unto them that daub it with untempered [mortar], that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it.
12 Lè miray la fin tonbe, y'a mande yo kisa dlo lacho a te fè pou miray la.
Lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where is the daubing wherewith ye have daubed it?
13 Enben, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di: Mwen pral fè yon sèl kòlè, m'ap voye yon gwo van tanpèt, yon gwo lapli ak lagrèl ki pral tonbe pou kraze miray la.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will even rend it with a stormy wind in my wrath; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great hailstones in wrath to consume it.
14 M'ap lage miray nou te blanchi ak lacho a atè, m'ap kraze l' ratè, wòch fondasyon yo pral parèt deyò. Miray la ap tonbe sou nou, l'ap kraze nou. Lè sa a, nou tout va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered [mortar], and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be uncovered; and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
15 Mwen pral move sou miray la ansanm ak tout moun ki te blanchi l' ak lacho a. Lè m'a fin fè yo sa m' gen pou m' fè yo a, m'a di nou: Miray la pa la ankò, ni bann moun ki te blanchi l' ak lacho a,
Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with untempered [mortar]; and I will say unto you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it;
16 bann pwofèt pèp Izrayèl yo k'ap bay bèl mesaj pou lavil Jerizalèm lan. Anyen p'ap mache nan peyi a, epi yo menm y'ap plede di yo fè vizyon tout bagay ap mache byen. Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
[to wit], the prophets of Israel that prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and that see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace, saith the Lord Jehovah.
17 Seyè a di ankò: -Nonm o! Koulye a, vire tèt ou gade nan direksyon medam k'ap fè mesaj yo yo menm! Yo pran pòz pwofèt yo nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la! Denonse yo!
And thou, son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, that prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them,
18 Lèfini, di yo men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, voye di yo: Madichon pou nou, medam! N'ap mare kòd wanga nan ponyèt tout moun. N'ap moute mouchwa tèt pou tout kalite moun pou yo ka gen pouvwa pran nanm moun. Nou dèyè pou nou gen pouvwa fè sa nou vle ak nanm lòt moun san anyen pa rive nou.
and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the women that sew pillows upon all elbows, and make kerchiefs for the head of [persons of] every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and save souls alive for yourselves?
19 N'ap derespekte mwen devan pèp mwen an. Pou kèk ponyen grenn lòj ak kèk moso pen n'ap touye moun ki pa merite mouri, n'ap sove moun ki pa merite viv ankò. N'ap bay pèp mwen an yon bann manti. Yo menm, yo byen kontan kwè nou.
And ye have profaned me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hearken unto lies.
20 Enben! Men sa Seyè a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, di: Mwen pa vle wè kòd wanga nan ponyèt nou yo. Se ak yo nou sèvi pou nou pran nanm lòt moun tankou zwezo nan pèlen. M'ap rache yo nan ponyèt nou. M'ap delivre moun nou te pran nan pèlen yo pou y' al fè wout yo.
Wherefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make [them] fly, and I will tear them from your arms; and I will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make [them] fly.
21 M'ap rache mouchwa tèt nou yo, m'ap sove pèp mwen an anba men nou. Nou p'ap ka fè sa nou vle ak yo ankò. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
22 Mwen pa ta renmen anyen rive bon moun yo. Men nou menm, avèk manti n'ap bay yo, n'ap dekouraje yo. N'ap ankouraje mechan yo pou yo pa chanje. Nou pa ba yo chans sove lavi yo.
Because with lies ye have grieved the heart of the righteous, whom I have not made sad, and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, and be saved alive;
23 Enben! Se poutèt sa koulye a, nou p'ap fè vizyon pou twonpe moun ankò, ni nou p'ap ba yo manti sou sa ki pral rive yo. Mwen pral sove pèp mwen an anba men nou. Konsa, n'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
Therefore ye shall no more see false visions, nor divine divinations: and I will deliver my people out of your hand; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
