Jeremiah 39
1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem, and besieged it.
Alò, lè Jérusalem te vin kaptire nan nevyèm ane pouvwa Sédécias la, wa Juda a, nan dizyèm mwa, Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, ak tout lame li te rive kote Jérusalem pou te fè syèj sou li.
2 In the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city.
Nan onzyèm ane pouvwa Sédécias la, nan katriyèm mwa a, nan nevyèm jou nan mwa a, yon brèch te fèt nan miray vil la.
3 All the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate: Nergal Sharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim the Rabsaris, Nergal Sharezer the Rabmag, with all the rest of the princes of the king of Babylon.
Epi tout ofisye a wa Babylone yo te antre ladann. Yo te chita bò kote Pòtay Mitan a; Nergal-Scharetser, Samgar-Nebu, Sarsekim, chèf a enik yo, Nergal-Sar-Ezer, chèf a majisyen yo, ak tout rès chèf a wa Babylon yo.
4 When Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled and went out of the city by night, by the way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls; and he went out toward the Arabah.
Lè Sédécias, wa Juda a, ak tout mesye lagè yo te wè yo, yo te sove ale e te ale deyò lavil la nan nwit lan pa chemen jaden a wa a, atravè pòtay antre de miray yo. Konsa li te sove ale vè dezè a.
5 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. When they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgment on him.
Men lame Kaldeyen yo te kouri dèyè yo e te kaptire Sédécias nan plèn Jéricho. Yo te sezi li e te mennen li monte kote Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, nan Ribla, nan peyi a Hamath la. Epi li te pwononse jijman sou li.
6 Then the king of Babylon killed Zedekiah’s sons in Riblah before his eyes. The king of Babylon also killed all the nobles of Judah.
Epi wa Babylone nan te touye fis a Sédécias yo, devan zye l nan Ribla. Anplis, wa Babylone nan te touye tout mesye enpòtan Juda yo.
7 Moreover he put out Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
Epi li te avegle zye Sédécias, e te mare li ak braslè an bwonz pou mennen l Babylone.
8 The Chaldeans burned the king’s house and the people’s houses with fire and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
Anplis, Kaldeyen yo te brile palè wa a ak dife avèk kay a pèp la, e yo te kraze miray Jérusalem yo.
9 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the rest of the people who remained in the city, the deserters also who fell away to him, and the rest of the people who remained.
Tout rès pèp la ki te rete lavil la, ak sila ki te abandone vil la, ki te janbe kote li, e retay ki te rete nan vil la, Nebuzaradan, chèf gad yo, te pote yo an egzil Babylone.
10 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, who had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
Men kèk nan sila ki te malere nèt yo, ki pa t gen anyen yo, Nebuzaradan, chèf gad yo, te kite yo dèyè nan peyi Juda, e te bay yo chan rezen ak chan pou yo kiltive nan menm lè sa a.
11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon commanded Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard concerning Jeremiah, saying,
Alò, Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te pase lòd de Jérémie pa Nebuzaradan, chèf gad la. Li te di:
12 “Take him and take care of him. Do him no harm; but do to him even as he tells you.”
“Pran l e okipe l, pa fè l anyen ki mal, men pito aji avèk li jan li mande ou a.”
13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, Nebushazban, Rabsaris, and Nergal Sharezer, Rabmag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon
Konsa Nebuzaradan, chèf gad yo, te voye pawòl pa Nebuschazban, chèf a enik yo, Nergal-Scharetser, chèf a majisyen yo, ak tout chèf a wa Babylone yo,
14 sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should bring him home. So he lived among the people.
te voye retire Jérémie sòti nan lakou kay gad la e te fè Guedalia, fis Achikam, fis a Schaphan nan, responsab pou mennen li lakay li. Konsa, li te rete pami pèp li a.
15 Now the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
Alò, pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote Jérémie pandan li te anprizone nan lakou kay gad la. Li te di:
16 “Go, and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will bring my words on this city for evil, and not for good; and they will be accomplished before you in that day.
“Ale pale ak Ébed-Mélec, Etyopyen an pou di l: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la: “Gade byen, Mwen prèt pou mennen pawòl Mwen yo sou vil sa a pou dezas e pa pou pwosperite. Konsa yo va fèt devan ou nan jou sa a.
17 But I will deliver you in that day,” says the LORD; “and you will not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.
Men mwen va delivre ou nan jou sa a,” deklare SENYÈ a: “Ou p ap livre nan men a moun sa yo ke ou pè yo.
18 For I will surely save you. You will not fall by the sword, but you will escape with your life, because you have put your trust in me,” says the LORD.’”
Paske anverite, Mwen va sove ou e ou p ap tonbe anba nepe, men ou va gen lavi ou kon benefis, akoz ou te mete konfyans nan Mwen,” deklare SENYÈ a.’”
