< Jeremias 35 >

1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Sedekias king of Juda, in the fifth month, [that] Ananias the false prophet, the son of Azor, from Gabaon, spoke to me in the house of the Lord, in the sight of the priests and all the people, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò, lè sa a se Jojakim, pitit Jozyas, ki te wa peyi Jida. Li di l' konsa:
2 Thus says the Lord; I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
-Al jwenn moun branch fanmi Rekab yo. Pale ak yo. Fè yo vini ak ou nan yonn nan pyès chanm Tanp lan. Lè y'a rive la, w'a ba yo diven bwè.
3 Yet two full years, and I will return into this place the vessels of the house of the Lord,
Se konsa Jeremi al chache tout branch fanmi Rekab yo, depi Jazanya, pitit gason Imeja, ki te pitit Abasinya, ansanm ak tout frè l' yo ak tout pitit gason yo.
4 and Jechonias, and the captivity of Juda: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
Li mennen yo nan tanp lan. Li fè yo antre nan pyès chanm yo te bay patizan pwofèt Anan, pitit Igdalya a. Pyès chanm sa a te kole kole ak chanm chèf tanp yo, li te anwo pyès chanm ki pou Maseya, pitit gason Chaloum lan, prèt ki te reskonsab veye pòtay tanp lan.
5 Then Jeremias spoke to Ananias in the sight of all the people, and in the sight of the priests that stood in the house of the Lord,
Apre sa, Jeremi mete gwo ja plen diven ak gode devan moun Rekab yo. Li di yo: -Bwè diven non!
6 and Jeremias said, May the Lord indeed do thus; may he confirm your word which you do prophesy, to return the vessels of the house of the Lord, and all the captivity, out of Babylon to this place.
Men yo reponn li: -Nou pa bwè diven non. Paske zansèt nou, Jonadab, pitit Rekab la, te ban nou lòd sa yo: Pa janm bwè diven, ni nou, ni pitit nou yo.
7 Nevertheless hear you the word of the Lord which I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people.
Pa janm bati kay, pa janm travay latè, pa janm plante rezen, pa janm achte bagay konsa non plis. N'a pase tout lavi nou anba tant. Konsa, n'a rete lontan nan peyi ki pa pou nou an.
8 The prophets that were before me and before you of old, also prophesied over much country, and against great kingdoms, concerning war.
Nou toujou obeyi lòd zansèt nou, Jonadab, pitit Rekab, te ban nou. Nou pa janm bwè diven nan vi nou, ni nou menm, ni madanm nou, ni pitit gason ak pitit fi nou yo.
9 [As for] the prophet that has prophesied for peace, when the word has come [to pass], they shall know the prophet whom the Lord has sent them in truth.
Nou pa bati kay pou nou rete. Nou pa gen pye rezen. Nou pa gen jaden pou n' plante.
10 Then Ananias took the yokes from the neck of Jeremias in the sight of all the people, and broke them to pieces.
Se anba tant nou rete. Konsa, nou toujou fè tou sa Jonadab, zansèt nou, te ban nou lòd fè a.
11 And Ananias spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus said the Lord; Thus will I break the yoke of the king of Babylon from the necks of all the nations. And Jeremias went his way.
Men, lè Nèbikadneza, wa peyi Babilòn lan, anvayi peyi a, nou yonn di lòt: Ann antre lavil Jerizalèm pou nou chape anba lame moun Babilòn yo ak lame moun peyi Siri yo. Se konsa nou vin rete lavil Jerizalèm.
12 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, after that Ananias had broken the yokes off his neck, saying,
Lè sa a Seyè a pale ak Jeremi.
13 Go and speak to Ananias, saying, Thus says the Lord; You have broken the yokes of wood; but I will make instead of them yokes of iron.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, di l': -Ale jwenn moun peyi Jida yo ansanm ak moun ki rete lavil Jerizalèm yo, w'a di yo: Poukisa yo pa pran leson sou moun Rekab yo, pou yo fè sa mwen di yo fè. Se mwen menm Seyè a k'ap mande yo sa.
14 For thus said the Lord, I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all the nations, that they may serve the king of Babylon.
Jonadab, pitit Rekab la, te bay lòd pou pitit li yo pa janm bwè diven. Jouk jounen jòdi a yo pa janm bwè diven. Yo swiv lòd zansèt yo te ba yo a. Men nou menm, mwen pa janm sispann avèti nou. Nou pa janm koute m'.
15 And Jeremias said to Ananias, The Lord has not sent you; and you have caused this people to trust in unrighteousness.
Mwen pa janm sispann voye sèvitè m' yo, pwofèt yo, vin di nou: Manyè kite move pant n'ap swiv yo. Manyè fè sa ki dwat! Pa kouri dèyè lòt bondye pou nou sèvi yo. Konsa, n'a rete nan peyi mwen te bay pou zansèt nou yo ansanm ak nou an. Men, nou pa koute m'.
16 Therefore thus said the Lord: Behold, I [will] cast you off from the face of the earth: this year you shall die.
Pitit Jonadab yo te fè tou sa zansèt yo te mande yo fè, men nou menm moun Jida yo, nou pa vle koute m'.
17 So he died in the seventh month.
Se poutèt sa, men sa mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, mwen di nou: Mwen pral voye sou moun peyi Jida ak moun lavil Jerizalèm yo malè mwen te di m'ap voye a. Paske mwen te pale nou, nou pa koute m'. Mwen rele nou, nou pa reponn mwen.
Apre sa, Jeremi di moun Rekab yo: -Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, voye di nou: Nou te swiv lòd zansèt nou, Jonadab, te ban nou an. Nou te fè tou sa li te mande nou fè, tout lòd li te ban nou yo.
Se poutèt sa, men sa mwen menm Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, mwen di: Va toujou gen yon gason nan fanmi Jonadab, pitit Rekab la, pou sèvi mwen.
