11 ¶ 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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 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 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 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 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 ¶ Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di:

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

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

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

God’s Sure Judgment on Jerusalem

11 Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the gate of the house of the Lord that faces east. There at the entrance of the gate were twenty-five men, and I saw among them Jaazaniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah(A) son of Benaiah, leaders(B) of the people.(C) The Lord said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who are plotting evil(D) and giving wicked advice in this city.(E) They say, ‘Haven’t our houses been recently rebuilt? This city is a pot,(F) and we are the meat in it.’(G) Therefore prophesy(H) against them; prophesy, son of man.”

Then the Spirit of the Lord came on me, and he told me to say: “This is what the Lord says: That is what you are saying, you leaders in Israel, but I know what is going through your mind.(I) You have killed many people in this city and filled its streets with the dead.(J)

“Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: The bodies you have thrown there are the meat and this city is the pot,(K) but I will drive you out of it.(L) You fear the sword,(M) and the sword is what I will bring against you, declares the Sovereign Lord.(N) I will drive you out of the city and deliver you into the hands(O) of foreigners and inflict punishment on you.(P) 10 You will fall by the sword, and I will execute judgment on you at the borders of Israel.(Q) Then you will know that I am the Lord. 11 This city will not be a pot(R) for you, nor will you be the meat in it; I will execute judgment on you at the borders of Israel. 12 And you will know that I am the Lord,(S) for you have not followed my decrees(T) or kept my laws but have conformed to the standards of the nations around you.(U)

13 Now as I was prophesying, Pelatiah(V) son of Benaiah died. Then I fell facedown and cried out in a loud voice, “Alas, Sovereign Lord! Will you completely destroy the remnant of Israel?(W)

The Promise of Israel’s Return

14 The word of the Lord came to me: 15 “Son of man, the people of Jerusalem have said of your fellow exiles and all the other Israelites, ‘They are far away from the Lord; this land was given to us as our possession.’(X)

16 “Therefore say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Although I sent them far away among the nations and scattered them among the countries, yet for a little while I have been a sanctuary(Y) for them in the countries where they have gone.’

17 “Therefore say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will gather you from the nations and bring you back from the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you back the land of Israel again.’(Z)

18 “They will return to it and remove all its vile images(AA) and detestable idols.(AB) 19 I will give them an undivided heart(AC) and put a new spirit in them; I will remove from them their heart of stone(AD) and give them a heart of flesh.(AE) 20 Then they will follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws.(AF) They will be my people,(AG) and I will be their God.(AH) 21 But as for those whose hearts are devoted to their vile images and detestable idols,(AI) I will bring down on their own heads what they have done, declares the Sovereign Lord.(AJ)

22 Then the cherubim, with the wheels beside them, spread their wings, and the glory(AK) of the God of Israel was above them.(AL) 23 The glory(AM) of the Lord went up from within the city and stopped above the mountain(AN) east of it. 24 The Spirit(AO) lifted me up and brought me to the exiles in Babylonia[a] in the vision(AP) given by the Spirit of God.

Then the vision I had seen went up from me, 25 and I told the exiles everything the Lord had shown me.(AQ)
