Jeremiah 44

1 The worde that came to Ieremiah concerning all the Iewes, which dwell in the lande of Egypt, and remained at Migdol and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the coutry of Pathros, saying,

Pawòl ki te rive kote Jérémie pou tout Jwif ki te rete nan peyi Égypte yo, sila ki te rete nan Migdol yo, Tachpanès Noph ak nan peyi a Pathros yo. Li te di:

2 Thus sayeth the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Yee haue seene all the euill that I haue brought vpon Ierusalem, and vpon all the cities of Iudah: and beholde, this day they are desolate, and no man dwelleth therein,

“Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la: ‘Nou menm, nou te wè tout malè ke M te mennen sou Jérusalem ak tout vil Juda yo. Gade byen, nan jou sa a, yo fin kraze nèt e pèsòn pa rete nan yo,

3 Because of their wickednes which they haue comitted, to prouoke me to anger in that they went to burne incense, and to serue other gods, who they knew not, neither they nor you nor your fathers.

akoz mechanste ke yo te fè pou pwovoke M a lakòlè, akoz yo te kontinye brile sakrifis pou sèvi lòt dye ke yo pa t konnen, ni yo, ni nou menm, ni zansèt nou yo.

4 Howbeit I sent vnto you all my seruats the Prophets rising earely, and sending them, saying, Oh doe not this abominable thing that I hate.

Malgre sa, Mwen te voye bannou tout sèvitè mwen yo, pwofèt yo, ankò e ankò e Mwen te di: “Ah, pa fè bagay abominab sila ke m menm rayi a.”

5 But they would not heare nor incline their eare to turne from their wickednes, and to burne no more incense vnto other gods.

Men yo pa t koute, ni panche zòrèy yo pou kite mechanste yo, pou yo pa brile sakrifis a lòt dye yo.

6 Wherefore my wrath, and mine anger was powred foorth and was kindled in the cities of Iudah, and in the streetes of Ierusalem, and they are desolate, and wasted, as appeareth this day.

Akoz sa, kòlè Mwen ak mekontantman Mwen te vide e te brile nan vil Juda yo ak nan ri a Jérusalem yo, jiskaske yo vin detwi nèt e vin yon dezolasyon jis rive jodi a.’

7 Therefore now thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, Wherfore commit ye this great euill against your soules, to cut off from you man and woman, childe and suckling out of Iudah, and leaue you none to remaine?

“Alò, konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la: ‘Poukisa n ap fè gwo mal sa a nou menm, pou nou ta koupe retire nèt de nou menm, gason, fanm, pitit, ak tibebe, pou kite tèt nou san retay.

8 In that yee prouoke mee vnto wrath with the woorkes of your hands, burning incense vnto other Gods in the lande of Egypt whither yee be gone to dwell: that yee might bring destruction vnto your selues, and that ye might be a curse and a reproch among all nations of the earth.

Epi pwovoke M a lakòlè avèk zèv men nou, brile sakrifis a lòt dye nan peyi Égypte yo, kote nou ap antre pou rezide, pou nou kab vin koupe retire nèt e devni yon madichon ak yon repwòch pami tout nasyon sou latè yo?

9 Haue yee forgotten the wickednes of your fathers, and the wickednesse of the Kings of Iudah and the wickednesse of their wiues and your owne wickednes and the wickednes of your wiues, which they haue committed in the land of Iudah and in the streetes of Ierusalem?

Èske nou fin bliye mechanste a papa zansèt nou yo, mechanste a wa a Juda yo, mechanste a madanm yo, pwòp mechanste pa nou, mechanste a madanm pa nou yo, ke yo te komèt nan peyi Juda a ak nan ri Jérusalem yo.

10 They are not humbled vnto this day, neither haue they feared nor walked in my lawe nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.

Men yo pa t repanti, menm jis rive jodi a, ni yo pa t gen lakrent, ni mache nan lalwa Mwen, ni règleman ke M te mete devan nou yo ak devan papa zansèt nou yo.’

11 Therefore thus sayeth the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Beholde, I will set my face against you to euill and to destroy all Iudah,

“Pou sa, konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la: ‘Gade byen, Mwen ap fikse fas Mwen kont nou pou malè, menm pou koupe retire tout Juda.

12 And I will take the remnant of Iudah, that haue set their faces to goe into the lande of Egypt there to dwell, and they shall all bee consumed and fall in the lande of Egypt: they shall euen bee consumed by the sworde and by the famine: they shall die from the least vnto the most, by the sworde, and by the famine, and they shall be a detestation and an astonishment and a curse and a reproche.

Epi Mwen va retire retay Juda ki te fikse panse yo sou antre nan peyi Égypte pou abite la, e yo va tout twouve move desten pa yo. La, nan peyi Égypte, yo va tonbe pa nepe e rankontre desten yo nan gwo grangou. Yo va devni yon madichon, yon objè degoutan, yon anatèm ak yon repwòch.

13 For I will visite them that dwel in the land of Egypt, as I haue visited Ierusalem, by ye sworde, by the famine, and by the pestilence,

Epi Mwen va pini sila ki rete an peyi Égypte, kon mwen te pini Jérusalem, ak nepe a, ak grangou, ak bèt ki ravaje chan e ak epidemi.

14 So that none of the remnant of Iudah, which are gone into the lande of Egypt to dwell there, shall escape or remaine, that they shoulde returne into the land of Iudah to the which they haue a desire to returne to dwell there: for none shall returne, but such as shall escape.

Konsa, p ap gen moun ki chape, ni ki retounen nan retay Juda ki te antre nan peyi Égypte pou rezide la ak entansyon pou retounen nan peyi Juda, kote yo gen anvi retounen viv la. Paske okenn moun p ap retounen sof ke kèk grenn ki chape.’”

15 Then all the men which knewe that their wiues had burnt incense vnto other gods and all the women that stoode by, a great multitude, euen all the people that dwelt in the lande of Egypt in Pathros, answered Ieremiah, saying,

Epi tout sila ki te konnen ke madanm yo t ap brile sakrifis a lòt dye yo, ansanm ak tout fanm ki te kanpe la yo, yon gwo asanble, menm ak tout moun ki te rete Pathros nan peyi Égypte la, te reponn a Jérémie. Yo te di:

16 The worde that thou hast spoken vnto vs in the Name of the Lord, wee will not heare it of thee,

“Pou mesaj ke ou te pale nou nan non SENYÈ a, nou p ap koute ou!

17 But wee will doe whatsoeuer thing goeth out of our owne mouth, as to burne incense vnto the Queene of heauen, and to powre out drinke offerings vnto her, as we haue done, both we and our fathers, our Kings and our princes in the cities of Iudah, and in the streetes of Ierusalem: for then had wee plentie of vitailes and were well and felt none euill.

Men pito, nou va akonpli tout pawòl ki te sòti nan bouch pa nou, lè n ap brile sakrifis a rèn syèl la, e vide bwason devan l, menm jan ke nou menm, ak papa zansèt nou yo, wa nou yo, ak prèt nou yo te konn fè nan vil Juda yo ak nan ri a Jérusalem yo. Paske nan lè sa a, nou te gen kont manje, nou te byen alèz e nou pa t konn soufri malè.

18 But since wee left off to burne incense to the Queene of heauen, and to powre out drinke offerings vnto her, we haue had scarcenesse of all things, and haue beene consumed by the sworde and by the famine.

Men depi lè nou te sispann brile sakrifis a rèn syèl la ak vide bwason devan l, nou te vin manke tout bagay, e nou te vin anile pa nepe ak gwo grangou.”

19 And when we burnt incense to ye Queene of heauen, and powred out drinke offerings vnto her, did wee make her cakes to make her glad, and powre out drinke offerings vnto her without our husbands?

Fanm yo te pale: “Lè nou t ap brile sakrifis a rèn syèl la, e nou t ap vide ofrann bwason a li menm, èske se te san mari nou ke nou te fè pou li gato sakrifis nan imaj li e te vide ofrann bwason a li menm?”

20 Then said Ieremiah vnto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had giuen him that answere, saying,

Epi Jérémie te di a tout pèp la, a mesye yo ak fanm yo—menm a tout pèp ki t ap reponn li konsa yo—e li te di:

21 Did not the Lord remember the incense, that yee burnt in the cities of Iudah, and in the streetes of Ierusalem, both you, and your fathers, your Kinges, and your princes, and the people of the land, and hath he not considered it?

Pou sakrifis lafimen ke nou te brile nan vil a Juda yo ak ri a Jérusalem yo, nou menm ak papa zansèt nou yo, wa nou yo, ak prens nou yo e pèp peyi a, èske SENYÈ a pa t sonje yo, e èske tout sa pa t antre nan panse Li?

22 So that the Lord could no longer forbeare, because of the wickednes of your inuentions, and because of the abominations, which ye haue committed: therefore is your lande desolate and an astonishment, and a curse and without inhabitant, as appeareth this day.

Konsa, SENYÈ a pa t ka sipòte sa akoz mechanste a zak nou yo, akoz zak abominab ke nou te komèt yo. Se pou sa, peyi nou an fin detwi nèt, yon objè degoutan ak yon madichon, san pèsòn pou rete ladann, jan li ye jodi a.

23 Because ye haue burnt incense and because ye haue sinned against the Lord, and haue not obeyed the voyce of the Lord, nor walked in his Lawe, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies, therefore this plague is come vpon you, as appeareth this day.

Akoz nou te brile sakrifis yo, nou te peche kont SENYÈ a e pa t obeyi vwa SENYÈ a, ni mache nan lalwa Li, règleman Li yo, ak temwayaj Li yo; akoz sa, gran malè sa a vin tonbe sou nou, jan li ye jodi a.

24 Moreouer Ieremiah saide vnto all the people and to all the women, Heare the word of the Lord, all Iudah that are in the land of Egypt.

Konsa, Jérémie te di a tout pèp la, ansanm ak tout fanm yo: “Tande pawòl SENYÈ a, tout Juda ki rete nan peyi Égypte la,

25 Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Ye and your wiues haue both spoken with your mouthes, and fulfilled with your hande, saying, We will performe our vowes that we haue vowed to burne incense to the Queene of heauen, and to powre out drinke offerings to her: yee will perfourme your vowes and doe the things that yee haue vowed.

Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la, konsa: ‘Pou nou menm ak madanm nou, nou te pale ak bouch nou, nou te akonpli sa ak men nou, e nou te di: “Anverite, nou va akonpli ve ke nou te fè yo, pou nou brile sakrifis a rèn syèl la, e vide bwason nou yo a li menm.” “‘Ale fè l, pou akonpli ve nou yo; e byen si, akonpli ve nou yo!’

26 Therefore heare the word of the Lord, all Iudah that dwel in the land of Egypt. Beholde, I haue sworne by my great Name, sayeth the Lord, that my Name shall no more be called vpon by the mouth of any man of Iudah, in all the lande of Egypt, saying, The Lord God liueth.

“Sepandan, tande pawòl SENYÈ a, tout moun Juda ki rete nan peyi Égypte la: ‘Gade byen, Mwen te sèmante pa gran non Mwen,’ SENYÈ a di: ‘Pinga non Mwen janm nome ankò nan bouch a okenn moun Juda nan tout peyi Égypte la, pou ta di: “Jan Senyè BONDYE a viv la.”

27 Behold, I wil watch ouer them for euil and not for good, and all men of Iudah that are in the land of Egypt, shalbe consumed by the sword, and by the famine, vntill they be vtterly destroied.

Gade byen, M ap veye sou yo pou malè yo, e pa pou byen yo. Tout mesye Juda ki nan peyi Égypte yo, va rankontre lafen pa yo ak nepe e ak gwo grangou jiskaske yo fin disparèt nèt.

28 Yet a small nomber that escape the sworde, shall returne out of the lande of Egypt into the lande of Iudah: and all the remnant of Iudah that are gone into the lande of Egypt to dwell there, shall know whose words shall stad, mine or theirs.

Sila ki chape anba nepe yo va retounen sòti nan peyi Égypte pou rive Juda p ap gen anpil menm. Nan lè sa a, retay Juda ki te ale nan peyi Égypte pou rezide yo, va konnen pawòl a kilès k ap kanpe, si se pa M nan, oswa pa yo a’.

29 And this shall be a signe vnto you, saith the Lord, whe I visit you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall surely stand against you for euill.

“‘Sa va sèvi kon sign pou nou’, SENYÈ a di: ‘ke Mwen va pini nou nan plas sa a, pou nou ka konnen ke pawòl Mwen va, anverite, kanpe kont nou pou malè nou.’

30 Thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, I will giue Pharaoh Hophra King of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seeke his life: as I gaue Zedekiah King of Iudah into the hand of Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel his enemie, who also sought his life.

Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Gade byen, Mwen va livre Farawon Hophra, wa Égypte la, nan men lènmi li yo; nan men a sila k ap chache lavi li, menm jan ke m te livre Sédécias, wa Juda a, nan men Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, ki te ènmi li e ki t ap chache lavi li.’”
