< Jeremiah 32 >

1 The worde that came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, in the tenth yere of Zedekiah king of Iudah, which was the eightenth yeere of Nebuchad-nezzar.
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi yon lòt fwa ankò. Lè sa a Sedesyas te gen dizan depi li te wa peyi Jida, Nèbikadneza te gen dizwitan depi li te wa lavil Babilòn.
2 For then the King of Babels hoste besieged Ierusalem: And Ieremiah the Prophet was shutte vp in the court of the prison, which was in the King of Iudahs house.
Lame wa Babilòn lan te sènen lavil Jerizalèm. Yo te arete pwofèt Jeremi, yo te fèmen l' nan lakou palè wa Jida a kote gad yo ye a.
3 For Zedekiah King of Iudah had shut him vp, saying, Wherefore doest thou prophesie, and say, Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will giue this citie into the handes of the King of Babel, and he shall take it?
Se Sedesyas, wa peyi Jida a, ki te fè fèmen pwofèt la la, paske li t'ap fè l' repwòch dèske li te bay mesaj sa a nan non Bondye Seyè a: M'ap lage lavil Jerizalèm nan men wa Babilòn lan. L'ap pran l'.
4 And Zedekiah the King of Iudah shall not escape out of the hande of the Caldeans, but shall surely be deliuered into the handes of the King of Babel, and shall speake with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall beholde his face,
Wa Sedesyas p'ap chape anba men moun Kalde yo. M'ap lage l' nan men wa Babilòn lan. L'a konparèt devan wa a, y'a pale yonn ak lòt, je nan je.
5 And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babel, and there shall he be, vntil I visit him, saith ye Lord: though ye fight with the Caldeans, ye shall not prosper.
Apre sa, y'a mennen Sedesyas lavil Babilòn, li va rete la jouk m'a regle avè l'. Menm si nou goumen ak moun Babilòn yo, nou p'ap janm genyen lagè a. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
6 And Ieremiah said, The word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Lè sa a, Jeremi rakonte ki jan Seyè a te pale avè l'. Seyè a te di l' konsa:
7 Beholde, Hanameel, the sonne of Shallum thine vncle, shall come vnto thee and say, Bye vnto thee my fielde, that is in Anathoth: for the title by kindred appertaineth vnto thee to bye it.
-Anamèl, kouzen ou lan, pitit Chaloum, tonton ou bò papa, pral vin wè ou. Li pral mande ou pou achte yon jaden li genyen lavil Anatòt, paske se ou menm ki fanmi pi pre ak li, se ou menm an premye ki gen dwa achte l'.
8 So Hanameel, mine vncles sonne, came to mee in the court of the prison, according to the word of the Lord, and said vnto me, Bye my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the countrey of Beniamin: for the right of the possession is thine, and the purchase belongeth vnto thee: bye it for thee. Then I knewe that this was the worde of the Lord.
Se konsa, jan Seyè a te fè m' konnen an, kouzen m' Anamèl vin jwenn mwen nan lakou palè kote gad yo ye a. Li mande m' pou m' achte yon jaden li te genyen lavil Anatòt, nan peyi moun Benjamen yo. Li di se mwen an premye ki gen dwa achte l' paske se mwen ki fanmi pi pre ak li. Konsa, se mwen ki pou achte l' nan men l'. Lè sa a, mwen vin sèten se Seyè a menm ki te pale avè m'.
9 And I bought the field of Hanameel, mine vncles sonne, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the siluer, euen seuen shekels, and tenne pieces of siluer.
M' achte jaden an nan men Anamèl, pitit tonton m' lan, mwen peze lajan pou m' ba li a. Lajan an te rive disèt pyès an ajan.
10 And I writ it in the booke and signed it, and tooke witnesses, and weighed him the siluer in the balances.
Apre sa, mwen siyen de papye tè yo, mwen mete so m' sou yonn. Mwen fè temwen yo siyen tou, mwen fè kontwole pèz lajan an nan balans.
11 So I tooke the booke of the possession, being sealed according to the Lawe, and custome, with the booke that was open,
Apre sa, mwen pran de papye tè yo. Sa ki te sele a te gen kontra lavant lan jan lalwa mande l' la. Lòt papye a te rete tou louvri.
12 And I gaue the booke of the possession vnto Baruch the sonne of Neriah, the sonne of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine vncles sonne, and in the presence of the witnesses, written in the booke of the possession, before al the Iewes that sate in the court of the prison.
Mwen renmèt papye tè yo bay Bawouk, pitit gason Nerija, pitit pitit Makseja, devan Anamèl, kouzen m' lan, devan lòt temwen ki te siyen papye tè yo, devan tout moun peyi Jida ki te la nan lakou gad palè a.
13 And I charged Baruch before them, saying,
Devan yo tout, mwen di Bawouk konsa:
14 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Take the writings, euen this booke of the possession, both that is sealed, and this booke that is open, and put them in an earthen vessell, that they may continue a long time.
-Men lòd Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, bay. Pran de papye tè sa yo, sa ki sele a ak sa ki tou louvri a, mete yo nan yon ti kannari pou yo ka konsève pandan lontan.
15 For the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel saith thus, Houses and fieldes, and vineyardes shall be possessed againe in this land.
Paske yon lè yo va achte kay, jaden ak pye rezen nan peyi a ankò. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
16 Now when I had deliuered the booke of the possession vnto Baruch, the sonne of Neriah, I prayed vnto the Lord, saying,
Apre mwen te fin bay Bawouk, pitit gason Nerija a, papye tè yo, mwen lapriyè Seyè a, mwen di l':
17 Ah Lord God, beholde, thou hast made the heauen and the earth by thy great power, and by thy stretched out arme, and there is nothing hard vnto thee.
-Aa, Seyè, Bondye! Se avèk fòs kouraj ou, se avèk gwo pouvwa ou ou te fè syèl la ak latè a. Anyen pa twò difisil pou ou.
18 Thou shewest mercie vnto thousands, and recompensest the iniquitie of the fathers into the bosome of their children after them: O God the great and mightie, whose Name is ye Lord of hostes,
Ou fè mil jenerasyon nan yon fanmi wè jan ou gen bon kè. Men tou, ou fè pitit peye pou peche papa ak manman yo te fè. Ou se yon Bondye ki gen pouvwa, ki gen fòs. Yo rele ou: Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a.
19 Great in counsell, and mightie in worke, (for thine eyes are open vpon all the wayes of ye sonnes of men, to giue to euery one according to his wayes, and according to the fruite of his workes)
Plan travay ou, se gwo zafè. Yo pa ka konte bèl bagay ou fè yo. Je ou louvri sou tou sa moun ap fè, pou bay chak moun sa yo merite dapre sa yo fè, dapre jan yo mennen bak yo.
20 Which hast set signes and wonders in the land of Egypt vnto this day, and in Israel, and among all men, and hast made thee a Name, as appeareth this day,
Depi nan tan lontan rive jouk jounen jòdi a, ou te fè mirak ak mèvèy nan peyi Lejip, nan peyi Izrayèl ak nan tout lòt nasyon yo. Konsa, koulye a yo konnen ou toupatou.
21 And hast brought thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signes, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, with a stretched out arme, and with great terrour,
Ou fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip ak fòs ponyèt ou ak gwo kouraj ou. Ou te fè anpil mirak ak anpil mèvèy, anpil bagay ki te fè moun pè.
22 And hast giuen them this land, which thou diddest sweare to their fathers to giue them, euen a land, that floweth with milke and hony,
Ou te ba yo peyi ou te pwomèt ou t'ap bay zansèt yo a, peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo.
23 And they came in, and possessed it, but they obeyed not thy voyce, neither walked in thy Law: all that thou commaundedst them to doe, they haue not done: therefore thou hast caused this whole plague to come vpon them.
Yo rive nan peyi a, yo pran l' pou yo, men yo derefize koute ou. Yo pa viv jan ou te mande yo viv la. Yo pa fè tou sa ou te ba yo lòd fè a. Se konsa, ou voye tout gwo malè sa a sou yo jòdi a.
24 Beholde, the mounts, they are come into the citie to take it, and the citie is giuen into the hande of the Caldeans, that fight against it by meanes of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence, and what thou hast spoken, is come to passe, and beholde, thou seest it.
Moun Babilòn yo sènen lavil la, y'ap anpile tè nan pye miray yo, y'ap pwoche pou yo pran lavil la. Nou ta mèt di lavil la nan men yo deja. Lagè, grangou ak move maladi fin kraze kouraj moun yo. Ou wè sa ou te di a rive vre.
25 And thou hast sayd vnto me, O Lord God, Bye vnto thee the fielde for siluer, and take witnesses: for the citie shall be giuen into the hand of the Caldeans.
Wi, sa ki rete pou lavil la tonbe nan men moun Babilòn yo pa anyen. Poukisa atò, Seyè Bondye, ou ban m' lòd achte jaden sa a pou lajan kach devan temwen?
26 Then came the worde of the Lord vnto Ieremiah, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò, li di l' konsa:
27 Beholde, I am the LORD GOD of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
-Mwen menm Seyè a, mwen se Bondye tout moun sou latè. Pa gen anyen ki twò difisil pou m' fè.
28 Therefore thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I wil giue this citie into the hand of the Caldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchad-nezzar, King of Babel, and he shall take it.
Se poutèt sa, mwen menm mwen di ou: m'ap lage lavil sa a nan men moun Babilòn yo, nan men Nèbikadneza, wa yo a! Y'ap pran lavil la.
29 And the Caldeans shall come and fight against this citie, and set fire on this citie and burne it, with the houses, vpon whose rouses they haue offred incense vnto Baal, and powred drinke offrings vnto other gods, to prouoke me vnto anger.
Moun Babilòn k'ap atake lavil la pral antre ladan l'. Y'ap mete dife, y'ap boule l'. Y'ap mete dife nan kay kote moun yo te fè m' fache anpil la, lè yo te moute anwo twati a pou boule lansan pou Baal, pou fè ofrann diven pou lòt bondye.
30 For the children of Israel, and the children of Iudah haue surely done euill before me from their youth: for the children of Israel haue surely prouoked me to anger with the workes of their hands, saith the Lord.
Paske, moun Izrayèl yo ak moun Jida yo, se sa ki mal ase y'ap fè depi nan konmansman. Wi, moun Izrayèl yo, se fache y'ap fè m' fache ase ak tou sa y'ap fè a. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
31 Therefore this citie hath bene vnto me as a prouocation of mine anger, and of my wrath, from the day, that they built it, euen vnto this day, that I should remoue it out of my sight,
Lavil Jerizalèm sa a, depi jou yo te bati l' la rive jouk jòdi a, se kòlè l'ap fè m' fè, se move san l'ap fè m' fè. Kifè koulye a, mwen pa ka wè l' devan je m' ankò.
32 Because of all the euill of the children of Israel, and of the children of Iudah, which they haue done to prouoke mee to anger, euen they, their Kings, their Princes, their Priests, and their Prophets, and the men of Iudah, and the inhabitants of Ierusalem.
Akòz tou sa moun peyi Izrayèl yo ak moun peyi Jida yo te fè ki mal, m' about ak yo tout, ni wa yo, ni chèf yo, ni prèt yo, ni pwofèt yo, ni moun peyi Jida yo, ni moun lavil Jerizalèm yo.
33 And they haue turned vnto me the backe and not the face: though I taught them rising vp earely, and instructing them, yet they were not obedient to receiue doctrine,
Yo vire do ban mwen. Malgre mwen pa t' janm sispann montre yo sa pou yo fè, yo pa t' vle koute m', yo pa vle aprann.
34 But they set their abominations in ye house (whereupon my Name was called) to defile it,
Yo mete vye zidòl yo nan tanp yo te mete apa pou mwen an, yo fè tanp lan pa nan kondisyon pou sèvi m' ankò.
35 And they built the hie places of Baal, which are in the valley of Ben-hinnom, to cause their sonnes and their daughters to passe through the fire vnto Molech, which I commanded them not, neither came it into my minde, that they should doe such abomination, to cause Iudah to sinne.
Yo bati lotèl pou Baal nan Fon Benninon an, yo ofri pitit gason yo ak pitit fi yo pou yo touye pou Molòk, bagay mwen pa t' janm ba yo lòd fè, bagay ki pa t' janm vin nan lide m'. Lè yo fè bagay degoutan sa a, yo fè pèp Jida a tonbe nan peche.
36 And nowe therefore, thus hath the Lord God of Israel spoken, concerning this citie, whereof ye say, It shalbe deliuered into the hand of the King of Babel by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence,
Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, pale ak Jeremi, li di l' konsa: -Koulye a mwen ta renmen di yon lòt bagay sou lavil Jerizalèm. Ou te di ansanm ak lòt yo: Lagè, grangou ak move maladi ap fini ak lavil la, l'ap tonbe nan men wa Babilòn lan.
37 Beholde, I will gather them out of all countreys, wherein I haue scattered them in mine anger, and in my wrath, and in great indignation, and I wil bring them againe vnto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely.
Enben, wi! Mwen te fache sou yo, mwen te move anpil, mwen te fè gwo kòlè. Lè sa a, mwen gaye yo nan yon bann peyi. Men, mwen pral sanble yo, m'ap mennen yo tounen isit la ankò pou yo ka viv san kè sote.
38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
Lè sa a, yo menm y'a tounen pèp ki apa pou mwen an ankò, mwen menm m'a tounen Bondye yo ankò.
39 And I wil giue them one heart and one way that they may feare me for euer for ye wealth of them, and of their children after them.
Sèl lide m'ap mete nan tèt yo tout, sèl anvi m'a ba yo tout, se pou yo gen krentif pou mwen tout tan. Se va pou byen yo ak pou byen pitit pitit yo.
40 And I wil make an euerlasting couenant with them, that I wil neuer turne away from them to doe them good, but I wil put my feare in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.
M'ap pase yon kontra ak yo ki p'ap janm kase. M'ap pran angajman mwen p'ap janm lage yo. Mwen p'ap janm sispann fè yo byen. Wi, m'a fè yo gen krentif pou mwen ak tout kè yo. Konsa, yo p'ap janm vire do ban mwen ankò.
41 Yea, I wil delite in them to do them good, and I wil plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart, and with all my soule.
M'a pran plezi pou m' fè yo byen. M'a travay ak tout kè m' ak tout nanm mwen pou yo pran rasin nèt nan peyi a.
42 For thus sayth the Lord, Like as I haue brought all this great plague vpon this people, so wil I bring vpon them all the good that I haue promised them.
Seyè a di ankò: Menm jan se mwen menm ki te fè gwo malè sa a rive pèp la, konsa tou, se mwen menm ki pral ba yo tout bon bagay mwen te pwomèt m'ap ba yo.
43 And the fields shalbe possessed in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast, and shalbe giuen into the hand of the Caldeans.
W'ap di ansanm ak lòt moun yo: Peyi a fini. Pa gen yon moun, pa gen yon bèt ladan l'. Yo lage peyi a nan men moun Babilòn yo. Men yon lè, moun va achte tè nan peyi a ankò.
44 Men shall buy fields for siluer, and make writings and seale them, and take witnesses in the land of Beniamin, and round about Ierusalem, and in the cities of Iudah, and in the cities of the mountaines, and in the cities of the plaine, and in the cities of the South: for I wil cause their captiuitie to returne, saith the Lord.
Wi, nan tout peyi Benjamen an, nan tout ti bouk ki nan vwazinaj lavil Jerizalèm yo, nan tout lavil Jida yo, nan lavil ki nan mòn yo, nan tout lavil ki nan plenn yo, bò lanmè, ak nan sid peyi a, moun va achte jaden, y'a pase papye tè, y'a sele yo, y'a fè temwen siyen yo. Paske m'ap fè pèp la tounen nan peyi a ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa. Jerizalèm
