< Jeremiah 36 >

1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, [that] this word came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò. Lè sa a, Jojakim, pitit Jozyas la, t'ap mache sou katran depi li te wa peyi Jida. Men sa Seyè a te di Jeremi:
2 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.
-Pran yon woulo papye. W'a kouche sou li tou sa mwen te di ou sou peyi Izrayèl la, sou peyi Jida a ak sou tout lòt nasyon yo. W'a ekri tout mesaj mwen te ba ou, depi sou rèy wa Jozyas rive jouk jòdi a.
3 It may be the house of Judah will hear all the evil that I purpose to do unto them, that they may return every man from his evil way, and that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
Ou pa janm konnen, lè moun peyi Jida yo va tande tout malè mwen fè lide voye sou yo, y'a konprann, y'a manyè kite move pant y'ap swiv la. Lè sa a, m'a padonnen tout mechanste ak peche yo te fè yo.
4 And Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Nerijah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.
Se konsa, Jeremi rele Bawouk, pitit gason Nerija a, li dikte l' tout mesaj Seyè a te ba li epi Bawouk ekri yo nan woulo liv la.
5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up, I cannot go into the house of Jehovah; but go thou in,
Apre sa, Jeremi bay Bawouk lòd sa yo: -Yo defann mwen antre nan tanp Seyè a. Mwen pa ka mete pye m' la.
6 and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of Jehovah in the ears of the people in the house of Jehovah upon the fast day; and thou shalt also read them in the ears of all Judah that come from their cities.
Men ou menm, ou prale nan tanp lan jou pou pèp la fè jèn lan. Ou pral li nan woulo liv ou te ekri a tou sa mwen te dikte ou la, tout mesaj Seyè a te bay yo. Ou pral li l' byen fò pou tout moun ki nan tanp lan ka tande, pou moun ki soti nan lavil peyi Jida yo ka tande tou.
7 It may be they will present their supplication before Jehovah, and that they will return every one from his evil way; for great is the anger and the fury that Jehovah hath pronounced against this people.
Ou pa janm konnen, yo ka pran lapriyè nan pye Bondye, y'a manyè kite move pant yo t'ap swiv la. Paske Seyè a fè yo konnen li move anpil, li fache anpil sou pèp la.
8 And Baruch the son of Nerijah did according to all that the prophet Jeremiah commanded him, reading in the book the words of Jehovah in Jehovah's house.
Bawouk, pitit Nerija a, fè tou sa Jeremi te ba li lòd fè a. Li kanpe nan mitan Tanp lan, li li mesaj Seyè yo ki te nan liv la.
9 And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, in the ninth month, [that] they proclaimed a fast before Jehovah, for all the people in Jerusalem, and for all the people that came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem.
Se te nan nevyèm mwa senkyèm lanne rèy Jojakim, pitit Jozyas la, yo te bay lòd pou tout moun lavil Jerizalèm yo ansanm ak tout moun ki te soti nan lavil peyi Jida yo epi ki te nan lavil Jerizalèm lan pou yo fè yon sèvis jèn pou mande Seyè a gras.
10 And Baruch read in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of the house of Jehovah, in the ears of all the people.
Lè sa a, Bawouk pran liv mesaj Jeremi yo, li li l' nan tanp lan pou tout moun ka tande. Li te kanpe devan pyès chanm Gemarya, pitit gason Chafan an, ki te sekretè tanp lan. Chanm lan te bay sou gwo lakou anwo a, toupre kote yo pase pou antre nan Pòtay Nèf Tanp Seyè a.
11 And Micah the son of Gemariah the son of Shaphan heard out of the book all the words of Jehovah;
Miche, pitit Gemarya a, pitit pitit Chafan an, te tande tout mesaj Seyè yo ki te ekri nan liv la.
12 and he went down to the king's house, into the scribe's chamber, and behold, all the princes were sitting there: Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
Apre sa, li ale lakay wa a, nan biwo sekretè wa a, kote li jwenn tout gwo chèf yo reyini ap travay. Te gen Elichama, sekretè palè a, Delaya, pitit gason Chemaya, Elnatan, pitit Achbò, Gemarya, pitit Chafan, Zedekya, pitit Ananya, ak tout lòt gwo chèf yo.
13 And Micah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read in the book in the ears of the people.
Miche di yo tou sa li te sot tande Bawouk ap li nan zòrèy pèp la.
14 And all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thy hand the roll in which thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. And Baruch the son of Nerijah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
Lè sa a, gwo chèf yo voye Jeoudi bò kot Bawouk. Jeoudi sa a, se te pitit Netanya, pitit pitit Chelemya, pitit pitit pitit Kouchi. li al di Bawouk pou li pote woulo liv li te li nan zòrèy pèp la bay chèf yo. Bawouk pote woulo liv la ba yo.
15 And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. And Baruch read [it] in their ears.
Yo di l' konsa: -Chita la, li l' pou nou tande. Bawouk li liv la pou yo.
16 And it came to pass, when they heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said unto Baruch, We will certainly report to the king all these words.
Lè yo tande tou sa ki te nan liv la, yo vin pè. Yonn pran gade lòt, epi yo di: -Se pou n' al fè wa a konnen bagay sa yo.
17 And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words from his mouth?
Lèfini, yo mande Bawouk: -Mangè di nou ki jan ou te fè ka ekri tout bagay sa yo. Se Jeremi ki te dikte ou yo?
18 And Baruch said unto them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote [them] with ink in the book.
Bawouk reponn yo: -Se Jeremi menm ki te dikte tout mesaj sa yo. Mwen menm, mwen kouche yo sou woulo liv la ak lank.
19 And the princes said unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; that none may know where ye are.
Lè sa a, chèf yo di Bawouk: -Al kache tande, ou menm ansanm ak Jeremi. Pa kite pyès moun konnen kote nou ye.
20 And they went in unto the king into the court, but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe; and they told all the words in the ears of the king.
Chèf yo kite woulo liv la lakay Elichama, sekretè palè a, y' ale nan lakou palè a, y' al rapòte wa a tout bagay.
21 And the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll, and he fetched it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes that stood beside the king.
Lè sa a atò, wa a voye Jeoudi al chache woulo liv la lakay Elichama, sekretè a. Jeoudi pote liv la vini. Li tanmen li li byen fò pou wa a ansanm ak lòt chèf ki te kanpe bò wa a.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter-house in the ninth month, and with the fire-pan burning before him.
Se te nan sezon fredi, nan nevyèm mwa a, wa a te nan kay kote li konn pase tan fredi a, li te chita devan yon gwo recho dife tou limen.
23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four columns, he cut it with the scribe's knife, and cast it into the fire that was in the pan until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the pan.
Chak fwa Jeoudi te fin li twa ou kat kolonn nan liv la, wa a koupe yo ak yon ti kouto epi li jete yo nan dife a. Konsa konsa, jouk li boule tout woulo liv la.
24 And they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, [neither] the king nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
Men, ni wa a ni chèf li yo pa t' gen kè kase, ni yo pa t' fè anyen pou moutre yo te nan lapenn lè yo tande tou sa ki te nan woulo liv la.
25 Moreover, Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll; but he would not hear them.
Elnatan, pitit Delaja, ak Gemarya te lapriyè nan pye wa a pou li pa t' boule woulo liv la. Men, wa a pa koute yo.
26 And the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah hid them.
Okontrè, li pale ak Jerakmeyèl, pitit li a, ansanm ak Seraja, pitit Azryèl la, ak Chelemya, pitit Abdeyèl la. Li ba yo lòd pou yo arete pwofèt Jeremi ansanm ak Bawouk, sekretè l' la. Men Seyè a pa kite yo jwenn yo.
27 And after that the king had burned the roll, and the words that Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
Apre wa a te fin boule woulo liv ki te gen tout mesaj Jeremi te dikte Bawouk la, Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò. Li di l' konsa:
28 Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.
-Al chache yon lòt woulo papye. Ekri tou sa ki te nan premye woulo Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a, te boule a.
29 And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from it man and beast?
Lèfini, men sa w'a di sou Jojakim, wa Jida a. Seyè a pale, li di konsa: Ou boule woulo liv la, pa vre? Epi ou mande Jeremi poukisa li te ekri wa Babilòn lan gen pou l' vini pou l' kraze peyi a, pou l' touye dènye moun ak dènye bèt ki ladan l'.
30 Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
Se poutèt sa, koulye a, men mesaj mwen menm Seyè a m'ap bay sou Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a: p'ap janm gen yonn nan pitit li yo ki pou chita sou fotèy David la pou gouvènen nan plas li. Kadav li pral rete atè konsa, pou chalè solèy bat li lajounen, pou fredi bat li lannwit.
31 And I will visit their iniquity upon him, and upon his seed, and upon his servants; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; and they have not hearkened.
M'ap pini yo, ni li menm ni pitit li yo, ni chèf li yo pou tou sa yo fè ki mal. Ni yo, ni moun lavil Jerizalèm yo, ni moun peyi Jida yo pa t' koute m' lè mwen t'ap avèti yo. M'ap voye sou yo malè mwen te di m'ap voye a.
32 And Jeremiah took another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Nerijah; and he wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book that Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and there were added besides unto them many like words.
Se konsa Jeremi pran yon lòt woulo liv. Li bay Bawouk, sekretè li a, pitit Nerija a. Bawouk menm ekri tou sa Jeremi te di l'. Li ekri tout mesaj ki te nan premye woulo liv wa Jojakim te boule a, ansanm ak anpil lòt mesaj menm jan ak premye yo.
