Ezekyèl 30
1 Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 -Nonm o! Bay mesaj Bondye a! Fè konnen sa Seyè sèl Mèt la voye ou di: -Rele non! Ala yon move jou!
Son of man prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Howl ye, Woe, woe to the day:
3 Jou a ap pwoche. Wi, dat pou Seyè a aji a ap pwoche vre. Jou sa a, syèl la ap fèmen. Se va yon jou malè pou nasyon yo.
For the day is near, yea the day of the Lord is near: a cloudy day, it shall be the time of the nations.
4 Pral gen lagè nan tout peyi Lejip. Gwo lafliksyon pral tonbe sou peyi Letiopi. Anpil moun pral mouri nan peyi Lejip. Yo pral piye peyi a nèt ale. Y'a kraze ata fondasyon kay li yo.
And the sword shall come upon Egypt: and there shall be dread in Ethiopia, when the wounded shall fall in Egypt, and the multitude thereof shall be taken away, and the foundations thereof shall be destroyed.
5 Nan lagè sa a, yo pral touye tout sòlda li yo, ki vle di tout moun peyi Letiopi, moun peyi Pout, moun peyi Loud, moun peyi Arabi, moun peyi Koub. Ata moun peyi pa m' lan, Izrayèl, ki t'ap sèvi nan lame Lejip la ap mouri ansanm ak yo tou.
Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the rest of the crowd, and Chub, and the children of the land of the covenant, shall fall with them by the sword.
6 Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Tout moun ki t'ap pran defans peyi Lejip la pral mouri. Gwo bèl lame Lejip la pral disparèt. Wi, depi lavil Migdòl nan nò desann lavil Aswan nan sid, yo tout ap mouri nan lagè. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
Thus saith the Lord God: They also that uphold Egypt shall fall, and the pride of her empire shall be brought down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord the God of hosts.
7 Se peyi sa a ki pral pi mal nan tout peyi yo devaste yo. Lavil li yo pral tounen mazi nèt.
And they shall be desolate in the midst of the lands that are desolate, and the cities thereof shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
8 Lè m'a mete dife nan peyi Lejip, lè tout moun ki t'ap goumen pou li yo va tonbe mouri, lè sa a y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
And they shall know that I am the Lord: when I shall have set a fire in Egypt, and all the helpers thereof shall be destroyed.
9 Lè jou sa a va vini, jou pou yo detwi peyi Lejip la, m'ap voye mesaje nan bato pou y' al pran tèt moun ki t'ap viv kè pòpòz nan peyi Letiopi yo. Moun sa yo pral kraponnen anpil. Wi, jou sa a pa lwen rive.
In that day shall messengers go forth from my face in ships to destroy the confidence of Ethiopia, and there shall be dread among them in the day of Egypt: because it shall certainly come.
10 Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: Mwen pral sèvi ak Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, pou m' fini ak richès peyi Lejip la.
Thus saith the Lord God: I will make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon.
11 Wa a va vini ak lame sòlda li yo pou yo ravaje tout peyi a. Se moun Babilòn sa yo ki pi mechan pase tout lòt nasyon. Yo pral atake peyi Lejip avèk nepe yo nan men yo. Pral gen kadav nan tout peyi a.
He and his people with him, the strongest of nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords upon Egypt: and shall fill the land with the slain.
12 Mwen pral cheche dlo larivyè Nil la, m'ap lage peyi a nan men ansasen. M'ap fè moun lòt nasyon yo ravaje peyi a nèt ansanm ak tou sa ki ladan l'. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
And I will make the channels of the rivers dry, and will deliver the land into the hand of the wicked: and will lay waste the land and all that is therein by the hands of strangers, I the Lord have spoken it.
13 Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: Mwen pral detwi tout zidòl yo, m'ap disparèt tout fo bondye ki lavil Menmfis yo. p'ap gen pesonn pou gouvènen peyi Lejip la. M'ap fè tout moun nan peyi a pran tranble tèlman y'ap pè.
Thus saith the Lord God: I will also destroy the idols, and I will make an end of the idols of Memphis: and there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt: and I will cause a terror in the land of Egypt.
14 M'ap devaste zòn Patwòs la nan sid peyi a. M'ap mete dife nan lavil Zoan nan nò. M'ap pini lavil Tèb, kapital peyi a.
And I will destroy the land of Phatures, and will make a fire in Taphnis, and will execute judgments in Alexandria.
15 M'ap fè moun lavil Sin yo, lavil ki plen gwo ranpa pou defann peyi a, santi jan mwen konn fache. M'ap detwi tout richès lavil Tèb la.
And I will pour out my indignation upon Pelusium the strength of Egypt, and will cut off the multitude of Alexandria.
16 M'ap mete dife nan peyi Lejip. Lavil Sin lan pral nan gwo lapenn. Gwo miray lavil Tèb yo pral fann, y'ap kraze. Dlo pral anvayi tout lavil la.
And I will make a fire in Egypt: Pelusium shall be in pain like a woman in labour, and Alexandria shall be laid waste, and in Memphis there shall be daily distresses.
17 Tout jenn gason lavil Eliopolis ak lavil Boubastis yo ap mouri nan lagè. Y'ap depòte tout rès moun yo.
The young men of Heliopolis, and of Bubastus shall fall by the sword, and they themselves shall go into captivity.
18 Fènwa pral kouvri lavil Tapanès gwo jounen, lè m'a kraze otorite pouvwa peyi Lejip la. Lè m'a fini ak fòs kouraj ki t'ap fè l' gonfle lestonmak li a, yon gwo nwaj pral kouvri tout peyi Lejip. Yo pral depòte dènye moun li yo.
And in Taphnis the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the sceptres of Egypt, and the pride of her power shall cease in her: a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall be led into captivity.
19 Se konsa mwen pral pini peyi Lejip. Lè sa a, y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
And I will execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
20 Nan setyèm jou premye mwa, onzyèm lanne depi yo te depòte nou an, Seyè a pale avè m', li di m' konsa:
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
21 -Nonm o! Mwen kase ponyèt farawon an, wa Lejip la. Pa gen pesonn ki mete renmèd sou li, pesonn ki mete l' nan fòm pou l' ka pran, pou l' ka gen fòs kenbe nepe nan men l' ankò.
Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharao king of Egypt: and behold it is not bound up, to be healed, to be tied up with clothes, and swathed with linen, that it might recover strength, and hold the sword.
22 Se poutèt sa, koulye a men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di: M'ap leve dèyè farawon an, wa peyi Lejip la. Mwen pral kase tou de ponyèt li yo, ni sa ki te enganm lan ni sa ki te kase deja a. M'ap fè nepe a soti tonbe nan men l'.
Therefore, thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I come against Pharao king of Egypt, and I will break into pieces his strong arm, which is already broken: and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand:
23 Mwen pral gaye moun peyi Lejip yo nan lòt peyi, mwen pral simaye yo nan mitan divès lòt nasyon sou latè.
And I will disperse Egypt among the nations, and scatter them through the countries.
24 Mwen pral bay ponyèt wa Babilòn lan fòs, m'ap mete nepe pa m' lan nan men l'. M'ap kase tou de ponyèt farawon yo. Li pral rakle, li pral soufri anpil, li pral mouri devan lènmi l' lan.
And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and will put my sword in his hand: and I will break the arms of Pharao, and they shall groan bitterly being slain before his face.
25 Wi, m'ap bay ponyèt wa Babilòn lan fòs, men m'ap febli ponyèt farawon an. Lè m'a bay wa Babilòn lan nepe pa m' lan, lè l'a lonje l' sou peyi Lejip la, tout moun va konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharao shall fall: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have given my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall have stretched it forth upon the land of Egypt.
26 M'ap gaye moun peyi Lejip yo nan lòt peyi, mwen pral simaye yo nan mitan divès lòt nasyon sou latè. Lè sa a, y'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
And I will disperse Egypt among the nations, and will scatter them through the countries, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
