Jeremiah 33
1 Moreover the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
Jeremi te nan prizon toujou nan lakou palè kote gad yo ye a lè Seyè a pale avè l' ankò. Li di l':
2 Thus saith Jehovah that doeth it, Jehovah that formeth it to establish it; Jehovah is his name:
-Se mwen menm ki fè latè a, ki ba li fòm, ki kenbe l' nan plas li. Se mwen menm yo rele Seyè a. Men sa mwen di:
3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and will show thee great things, and difficult, which thou knowest not.
Rele m', m'a reponn ou. M'a fè ou konnen yon bann gwo bagay, yon bann mèvèy ou pa t' janm konnen.
4 For thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down [to make a defence] against the mounds and against the sword;
Wi, men sa mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, mwen di sou kay lavil Jerizalèm yo, sou kay wa peyi Jida yo, ki fin kraze paske moun Babilòn yo sènen lavil la, y'ap atake l'.
5 while [men] come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in mine anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city:
Gen moun ki soti pou kenbe tèt ak moun Babilòn yo. Moun sa yo lakòz kay yo pral plen kadav moun mwen pral touye tèlman mwen fache, tèlman mwen move. Mwen p'ap okipe lavil Jerizalèm ankò paske moun li yo fè twòp mechanste.
6 Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them; and I will reveal unto them abundance of peace and truth.
Men, mwen pral ba yo renmèd pou yo sa gaya. M'ap geri yo. M'ap fè yo konnen jan sa bon lè moun viv ak kè poze san ankenn danje.
7 And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.
M'ap fè peyi Izrayèl ak peyi Jida kanpe ankò. Zafè yo pral mache tankou nan tan lontan.
8 And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned against me, and whereby they have transgressed against me.
M'ap mete yo nan kondisyon pou yo sèvi m', m'ap wete tout peche yo te fè kont mwen yo. M'ap padonnen tou sa yo te fè ki mal lè yo t'ap fè wòklò avè m' lan.
9 And [this city] shall be to me for a name of joy, for a praise and for a glory, before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them, and shall fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I procure unto it.
Lè sa a, lavil Jerizalèm pral fè kè m' kontan. Li pral sèvi yon lwanj pou mwen, yon bèl bagay devan tout lòt nasyon ki sou latè. Lè y'a konnen tout byen mwen pral fè pou moun Jerizalèm yo, lè y'a wè tout bèl bagay m'a fè pou yo, y'a tranble tèlman y'a pè, y'a sezi.
10 Thus saith Jehovah: Yet again there shall be heard in this place, whereof ye say, It is waste, without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without beast,
Seyè a di ankò: Y'ap di peyi a tounen yon dezè, pa gen moun, pa gen bèt ladan l'. Se vre wi. Lavil peyi Jida yo, tout lari lavil Jerizalèm blanch: ou pa jwenn ni moun, ni bèt ladan yo. Men nan peyi a y'a tande ankò
11 the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that say, Give thanks to Jehovah of hosts, for Jehovah is good, for his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever; [and of them] that bring [sacrifices of] thanksgiving into the house of Jehovah. For I will cause the captivity of the land to return as at the first, saith Jehovah.
vwa moun k'ap pran plezi yo, moun ki gen kè kontan. Y'a tande mizik pou moun k'ap marye yo. Y'a tande moun k'ap chante lè y'ap pote ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi nan tanp Seyè a. Y'a di: Lwanj pou Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a paske li bon! Li p'ap janm sispann renmen nou! Wi, m'ap fè peyi a kanpe ankò jan l' te ye anvan an. Se Seyè a ki di sa.
12 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Yet again shall there be in this place, which is waste, without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò: -Nan peyi sa a ki fini, peyi kote ou pa jwenn ni moun ni bèt la nan tout lavil yo, va gen kote pou gadò mouton yo mennen mouton yo al manje.
13 In the cities of the hill-country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the South, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks again pass under the hands of him that numbereth them, saith Jehovah.
Nan lavil ki nan mòn yo, nan lavil ki nan plenn yo bò lanmè a ak nan sid peyi a, nan tout peyi Benjamen an, nan tout ti bouk nan vwazinaj Jerizalèm yo, nan tout lavil Jida yo, gadò mouton yo va fè mouton pase devan yo yonn apre lòt pou konte yo. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
14 Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
Seyè a di ankò: Yon jou pral vini, mwen pral kenbe pwomès mwen te fè moun Izrayèl yo ansanm ak moun Jida yo.
15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
Jou sa a, lè sa a, m'a fè yon nonm soti nan fanmi David la pou gouvènen yo. Se va yon wa ki va fè sa ki dwat, ki p'ap nan patipri.
16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely; and this is [the name] whereby she shall be called: Jehovah our righteousness.
Lè sa a, moun peyi Jida yo ak moun lavil Jerizalèm yo va sove, y'a viv san kè sote. Y'a rele lavil Jerizalèm Seyè a, Delivrans nou an.
17 For thus saith Jehovah: David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;
Seyè a di ankò: Va toujou gen yon wa ki soti nan fanmi David la pou gouvènen peyi Izrayèl la.
18 neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt-offerings, and to burn meal-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
Va toujou gen prèt nan fanmi Levi a pou sèvi m' nan tanp lan, pou boule ofrann nan dife pou mwen, pou fè ofrann grenn jaden ak lòt ofrann bèt pou mwen chak jou.
19 And the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò, li di l':
20 Thus saith Jehovah: If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, so that there shall not be day and night in their season;
-Mwen pase yon kontra ak lajounen, yon kontra ak lannwit pou yo toujou rive lè pou yo rive a. Eske nou ka kraze kontra sa yo? Non.
21 then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he shall not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
Enben, konsa tou, mwen siyen yon kontra ak David, sèvitè m' lan, pou toujou gen yonn nan pitit li yo chita sou fotèy wa a nan peyi a. Mwen siyen yon kontra ak moun Levi yo ansanm ak prèt k'ap sèvi m' yo. Kontra sa yo p'ap janm kase.
22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.
Mwen pral fè fanmi David, sèvitè m' lan, peple. Mwen pral fè moun Levi k'ap sèvi m' yo peple sitèlman yo p'ap ka konte kantite ki genyen. Y'ap tankou zetwal nan syèl la, tankou grenn sab bò lanmè.
23 And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò, li di l':
24 Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which Jehovah did choose, he hath cast them off? thus do they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
-Ou tande jan moun yo ap di mwen voye moun Izrayèl yo ak moun Jida yo jete, de fanmi mwen menm mwen te chwazi pou mwen yo! Se konsa y'ap meprize pèp mwen an. Yo pa konsidere l' tankou yon nasyon ankò.
25 Thus saith Jehovah: If my covenant of day and night [stand] not, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;
Men sa mwen menm Seyè a, mwen di: Mwen fè yon kontra ak lajounen, mwen fè yon kontra ak lannwit. Mwen bay regleman jan pou tout bagay nan syèl la ak sou latè a mache.
26 then will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have mercy on them.
Menm jan m'ap toujou kenbe kontra sa yo, konsa tou m'ap toujou kenbe pawòl mwen ak pitit Jakòb yo, mwen p'ap janm voye pitit pitit David, sèvitè m' lan, jete. M'ap toujou chwazi yonn nan fanmi David la pou gouvènen moun ki soti nan ras Abraram, Izarak ak Jakòb yo. Wi, m'a gen pitye pou yo, m'a fè yo kanpe ankò.
