Jeremiah 39
1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with his entire army and laid siege to the city.
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 And on the ninth day of the fourth month of Zedekiah’s eleventh year, the city was breached.
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 Then all the officials of the king of Babylon entered and sat in the Middle Gate: Nergal-sharezer of Samgar, Nebo-sarsekim the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the rest of the officials 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 king of Judah and all the soldiers saw them, they fled. They left the city at night by way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls, and they went out along the route to 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. They seized him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where 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 There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he 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 Then he put out Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him with bronze chains to take him to Babylon.
Epi li te avegle zye Sédécias, e te mare li ak braslè an bwonz pou mennen l Babylone.
8 The Chaldeans set fire to the palace of the king and to the houses of the people, and they 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 captain of the guard carried away to Babylon the remnant of the people who had remained in the city, along with the deserters who had defected to him.
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 left behind in the land of Judah some of the poor people who had no property, and at that time he gave them vineyards and fields.
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 had given orders about Jeremiah through Nebuzaradan captain of the guard, saying,
Alò, Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te pase lòd de Jérémie pa Nebuzaradan, chèf gad la. Li te di:
12 “Take him, look after him, and do not let any harm come to him; do for him whatever he says.”
“Pran l e okipe l, pa fè l anyen ki mal, men pito aji avèk li jan li mande ou a.”
13 So Nebuzaradan captain of the guard, Nebushazban the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the captains 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 had Jeremiah brought from the courtyard of the guard, and they turned him over to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, to take him home. So Jeremiah remained among his own 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 And while Jeremiah had been confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD had come to him:
Alò, pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote Jérémie pandan li te anprizone nan lakou kay gad la. Li te di:
16 “Go and tell Ebed-melech the Cushite that this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I am about to fulfill My words against this city for harm and not for good, and on that day they will be fulfilled before your eyes.
“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 on that day, declares the LORD, and you will not be delivered into the hands of the men whom you fear.
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 rescue you so that you do not fall by the sword. Because you have trusted in Me, you will escape with your life like a spoil of war, declares 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.’”
