Ezekyèl 23
Haitian Creole Version
23 ¶ Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:
2 -Nonm o! Vwala te gen de fi, pitit menm manman.
3 Depi lè yo te jenn ti nègès y' al fè jennès nan peyi Lejip. Se la yo lage kò yo nan lavi gason. Se la yo kite gason woule tete yo pou premye fwa.
4 Pi gran an te rele Ola, pi piti a Oliba. Ola se peyi Samari, Oliba se peyi Jerizalèm. Mwen marye ak tou de, yo fè pitit gason ak pitit fi pou mwen.
5 Men, atout Ola te madanm mwen, li lage kò l' nan dezòd. Li t'ap mouri pou moun peyi Lasiri, vwazen l' yo. Li fè zafè ak yo.
6 Mesye sa yo te sòlda avèk bèl inifòm violèt, gwo zotobre, ak grannèg. Yo tout te bèl jenn gason, bon kavalye moute sou chwal yo.
7 Li te kouche ak tout gwo chèf peyi Lasiri yo. Sitèlman li te cho dèyè mesye sa yo, li avili tèt li, li tonbe fè sèvis pou vye zidòl moun peyi Lasiri yo.
8 Li pa t' sispann fè metye jennès li te aprann nan peyi Lejip la. Depi lè li te jenn ti nègès, gason ap kouche l', y'ap woule tete l', y'ap sèvi avè l' tankou yon jennès.
9 Se poutèt sa mwen lage l' nan men nonm li yo, moun peyi Lasiri yo. Se dèyè yo li te cho konsa!
10 Yo mete l' toutouni, yo pran pitit gason ak pitit fi li yo. Lèfini, yo touye l' anba kout nepe. Se te yon egzanp pou tout fanm. Yo te fè l' peye pou sa l' te fè a dapre lalwa.
11 ¶ Atout Oliba, sè l' la, te wè sa, li lage kò l' nan pi gwo dezòd toujou. Li tounen yon pi gwo jennès pase Ola.
12 Li menm tou li te cho dèyè mesye peyi Lasiri yo, grannèg, gwo zotobre, sòlda ak bèl inifòm, bon kavalye ki moute sou chwal, yon bann bèl jenn gason.
13 Mwen wè li te fin avili tèt li nèt: dezyèm sè a pa t' pi bon pase premye a.
14 Men, Oliba al pi lwen toujou nan metye jennès la. Li wè pòtre gason yo te fè sou yon miray ak bèl penti wouj. Se te pòtre chèf peyi Babilòn yo.
15 Avèk bèl sentiwon pase nan ren yo, tèt yo mare ak bèl mouchwa madras, mesye yo te abiye tankou gwo chèf. Se te pòtre moun peyi Babilòn. Se la yo te fèt.
16 Wè li wè pòtre mesye yo, li anvi yo. Li voye mesaje bò kote yo nan peyi Babilòn.
17 Mesye yo vini, yo fè lamou, yo kouche avè l'. Yo pran kont plezi yo avè l', yo fin avili li nèt. Bout pou bout, li vin rayi yo.
18 Se li menm ankò ki mete tout zafè l' deyò. Li fè tout moun konnen se jennès li ye. Li mete l' toutouni, li fè m' degoute l' tankou lòt sè a.
19 Se atò li lage kò l' nan fè jennès. Li vin chonje lè l' te jenn ti nègès ap fè jennès nan peyi Lejip.
20 Li t'ap kouri dèyè gason ki cho tankou ou ta di mal bourik ak poulen chwal ki pran sant fenmèl.
21 Oliba, ou te dèyè pou ou te fè tout dezòd ou te konn fè yo lè ou te jenn ti nègès nan peyi Lejip kote pou premye fwa mesye yo te woule tete ou, kote yo te mete ou nan lavi gason.
22 ¶ Se poutèt sa, Oliba, men mesaj mwen menm Seyè a voye ba ou: Ou te vin rayi nonm ou yo! Enben, mwen pral moute tèt yo sou ou, mwen pral fè yo soti toupatou pou yo vin sènen ou.
23 Tout moun Babilòn yo ak moun peyi Kalde yo, moun lavil Pekòd, moun lavil Choa, moun lavil Koa, ansanm ak tout moun peyi Lasiri yo, mwen pral sanble tout bèl jenn gason yo, grannèg, gwo zotobre, tout chèf, tou sa ki gen gwo grad, bon kavalye ki moute sou chwal yo. Mwen pral sanble yo tout.
24 Y'ap soti nan nò, y'ap mache sou ou avèk yon gwo lame, anpil cha lagè ak anpil kabwa pwovizyon. Avèk gwo plak fè pou pwoteje yo, kas yo nan tèt yo, yo pral sènen ou toupatou. M' pral lage ou nan men yo pou yo jije ou dapre lwa pa yo.
25 Ou te pouse m' fè jalouzi, yo pral move sou ou jouk yo p'ap kapab ankò. Yo pral koupe bwa nen ou ak fèy zòrèy ou yo. Yo pral touye pitit ou yo. Wi, yo pral pran pitit gason ak pitit fi ou yo nan men ou, y'ap boule yo tou vivan.
26 Y'ap wete tout rad sou ou, y'ap pran tout bijou ou te konn mete sou ou.
27 M'ap mete yon fren nan dezòd ak metye jennès ou t'ap fè depi nan peyi Lejip la. Ou p'ap wè yo ankò devan je ou. Ou p'ap chonje peyi Lejip ankò.
28 Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: -Mwen pral lage ou nan men moun ou pa vle wè yo, moun ki te ba ou degoutans yo.
29 Yo pral maltrete ou tankou moun yo rayi. Yo pral pran tou sa ou te travay fè, y'ap kite ou toutouni, san rad sou ou tankou yon jennès. Se move lanvi ou yo ak lenkondite ou yo
30 ki pral lakòz tout malè sa yo tonbe sou ou. Ou te tounen yon jennès pou mesye lòt nasyon yo, ou avili tèt ou, ou tonbe fè sèvis pou vye zidòl yo.
31 Ou mache pye pou pye dèyè sè ou la. Se poutèt sa m'ap pini ou menm jan mwen te pini l' la.
32 Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: -Ou pral bwè nan gode sè ou la, yon gode byen fon. Tout moun pral pase ou nan betiz, nan rizib. Gode a plen ra bò.
33 Li pral fè ou sou. W'ap an mal makak. Se yon gode k'ap fè moun pè, yon gode k'ap fini avè ou, gode Samari, sè ou la.
34 W'ap bwè tout, w'ap kite l' vid. Lèfini, w'ap kraze l' anba dan ou! Moso yo pral filange tete ou. Se mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, ki di sa.
35 Se poutèt sa, men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: -Paske ou te bliye m', ou te vire do ou ban mwen, ou pral soufri pou tout lenkondite ak dezòd ou te fè yo.
36 ¶ Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa: -Nonm o! Eske ou pare pou jije Ola ansanm ak Oliba? Ou pral mete devan yo tout vye bagay derespektan yo t'ap fè yo.
37 Yo fè adiltè, yo touye moun, yo fè adiltè ak zidòl, yo touye pitit yo te fè pou mwen. Yo ofri yo pou yo boule yo bay zidòl.
38 Se pa sa ase yo fè m'. Menm lè sa a, yo derespekte tanp mwen an. Yo pa respekte regleman jou repo m' yo.
39 Menm jou yo touye pitit yo pou zidòl yo, yo vin nan tanp mwen an pou yo derespekte l'. Men sa yo fè anndan kò kay mwen an.
40 Sa ki pi rèd ankò, yo voye mesaje al envite gason soti byen lwen vin jwenn yo. Mesye yo vini. De sè yo benyen byen pwòp, yo pentire je yo. Yo mete bijou yo sou yo pou resevwa.
41 Yo chita sou bèl gwo kabann, yo pare yon ti tab devan kabann lan. Lèfini, yo pran lansan ak lwil mwen te ba yo, yo mete sou li.
42 Apre sa, moun tande vwa yon pakèt gason manfouben k'ap pran plezi avèk yo. Se te yon bann malandren yo mennen soti nan dezè a. Mesye yo mete bèl braslè nan ponyèt medam yo ak bèl kouwòn sou tèt yo chak.
43 Mwen di nan kè m': Fanm lan fini afòs li fè adiltè. Atousa l'ap fè jennès toujou.
44 Men, mesye yo tounen anpil fwa lakay li tankou kay yon jennès. Yo tounen lakay Ola ak Oliba, fanm devègonde sa yo.
45 Men, gason ki mache dwat yo pral jije yo tankou yo jije fanm k'ap fè adiltè epi k'ap touye moun, paske yo fè adiltè, yo touye moun.
46 Men sa Seyè sèl Mèt la di ankò: Sanble yon foul moun pou mache sou yo, pou fè yo pè, pou piye tou sa yo genyen!
47 Se pou foul moun yo kalonnen yo wòch jouk yo touye yo. Se pou yo depatcha yo ak nepe, touye pitit gason ak pitit fi yo, lèfini pou yo mete dife nan kay yo.
48 Nan tout peyi a, m'ap fè moun sispann fè libètinaj. Sa va sèvi yon avètisman pou tout medam yo, pou yo pa fè tankou nou.
49 Pou nou menm, de sè sa yo, mwen pral pini nou pou libètinaj nou. M'ap fè nou peye peche nou fè lè nou t'ap sèvi zidòl yo. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm Seyè a ki sèl Mèt.

Ezekiel 23
New International Version
Two Adulterous Sisters
23 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother.(A) 3 They became prostitutes in Egypt,(B) engaging in prostitution(C) from their youth.(D) In that land their breasts were fondled and their virgin bosoms caressed.(E) 4 The older was named Oholah, and her sister was Oholibah. They were mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.(F)
5 “Oholah engaged in prostitution while she was still mine; and she lusted after her lovers, the Assyrians(G)—warriors(H) 6 clothed in blue, governors and commanders, all of them handsome young men, and mounted horsemen. 7 She gave herself as a prostitute to all the elite of the Assyrians and defiled herself with all the idols of everyone she lusted after.(I) 8 She did not give up the prostitution she began in Egypt,(J) when during her youth men slept with her, caressed her virgin bosom and poured out their lust on her.(K)
9 “Therefore I delivered her into the hands(L) of her lovers,(M) the Assyrians, for whom she lusted.(N) 10 They stripped(O) her naked, took away her sons and daughters and killed her with the sword. She became a byword among women,(P) and punishment was inflicted(Q) on her.(R)
11 “Her sister Oholibah saw this,(S) yet in her lust and prostitution she was more depraved than her sister.(T) 12 She too lusted after the Assyrians—governors and commanders, warriors in full dress, mounted horsemen, all handsome young men.(U) 13 I saw that she too defiled herself; both of them went the same way.(V)
14 “But she carried her prostitution still further. She saw men portrayed on a wall,(W) figures of Chaldeans[a] portrayed in red,(X) 15 with belts(Y) around their waists and flowing turbans on their heads; all of them looked like Babylonian chariot officers, natives of Chaldea.[b] 16 As soon as she saw them, she lusted after them and sent messengers(Z) to them in Chaldea.(AA) 17 Then the Babylonians(AB) came to her, to the bed of love, and in their lust they defiled her. After she had been defiled by them, she turned away from them in disgust.(AC) 18 When she carried on her prostitution openly and exposed her naked body,(AD) I turned away(AE) from her in disgust, just as I had turned away from her sister.(AF) 19 Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. 21 So you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when in Egypt your bosom was caressed and your young breasts fondled.[c](AG)
22 “Therefore, Oholibah, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will stir up your lovers(AH) against you, those you turned away from in disgust, and I will bring them against you from every side(AI)— 23 the Babylonians(AJ) and all the Chaldeans,(AK) the men of Pekod(AL) and Shoa and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them, handsome young men, all of them governors and commanders, chariot officers and men of high rank, all mounted on horses.(AM) 24 They will come against you with weapons,[d] chariots and wagons(AN) and with a throng of people; they will take up positions against you on every side with large and small shields and with helmets. I will turn you over to them for punishment,(AO) and they will punish you according to their standards. 25 I will direct my jealous anger(AP) against you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will cut off your noses and your ears, and those of you who are left will fall by the sword. They will take away your sons and daughters,(AQ) and those of you who are left will be consumed by fire.(AR) 26 They will also strip(AS) you of your clothes and take your fine jewelry.(AT) 27 So I will put a stop(AU) to the lewdness and prostitution you began in Egypt. You will not look on these things with longing or remember Egypt anymore.
28 “For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am about to deliver you into the hands(AV) of those you hate, to those you turned away from in disgust. 29 They will deal with you in hatred and take away everything you have worked for. They will leave you stark naked,(AW) and the shame of your prostitution will be exposed.(AX) Your lewdness(AY) and promiscuity(AZ) 30 have brought this on you, because you lusted after the nations and defiled yourself with their idols.(BA) 31 You have gone the way of your sister; so I will put her cup(BB) into your hand.(BC)
32 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“You will drink your sister’s cup,
a cup large and deep;
it will bring scorn and derision,(BD)
for it holds so much.(BE)
33 You will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow,
the cup of ruin and desolation,
the cup of your sister Samaria.(BF)
34 You will drink it(BG) and drain it dry
and chew on its pieces—
and you will tear your breasts.
I have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord.(BH)
35 “Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Since you have forgotten(BI) me and turned your back on me,(BJ) you must bear(BK) the consequences of your lewdness and prostitution.”
36 The Lord said to me: “Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Then confront(BL) them with their detestable practices,(BM) 37 for they have committed adultery and blood is on their hands. They committed adultery with their idols; they even sacrificed their children, whom they bore to me, as food for them.(BN) 38 They have also done this to me: At that same time they defiled my sanctuary(BO) and desecrated my Sabbaths.(BP) 39 On the very day they sacrificed their children to their idols, they entered my sanctuary and desecrated(BQ) it. That is what they did in my house.(BR)
40 “They even sent messengers for men who came from far away,(BS) and when they arrived you bathed yourself for them, applied eye makeup(BT) and put on your jewelry.(BU) 41 You sat on an elegant couch,(BV) with a table(BW) spread before it on which you had placed the incense(BX) and olive oil that belonged to me.(BY)
42 “The noise of a carefree(BZ) crowd was around her; drunkards(CA) were brought from the desert along with men from the rabble, and they put bracelets(CB) on the wrists of the woman and her sister and beautiful crowns on their heads.(CC) 43 Then I said about the one worn out by adultery, ‘Now let them use her as a prostitute,(CD) for that is all she is.’ 44 And they slept with her. As men sleep with a prostitute, so they slept with those lewd women, Oholah and Oholibah. 45 But righteous judges will sentence them to the punishment of women who commit adultery and shed blood,(CE) because they are adulterous and blood is on their hands.(CF)
46 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Bring a mob(CG) against them and give them over to terror and plunder.(CH) 47 The mob will stone them and cut them down with their swords; they will kill their sons and daughters(CI) and burn(CJ) down their houses.(CK)
48 “So I will put an end(CL) to lewdness in the land, that all women may take warning and not imitate you.(CM) 49 You will suffer the penalty for your lewdness and bear the consequences of your sins of idolatry.(CN) Then you will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.(CO)”
