Jeremiah 32
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah: that year was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar.
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi yon lòt fwa ankò. Lè sa a Sedesyas te gen dizan depi li te wa peyi Jida, Nèbikadneza te gen dizwitan depi li te wa lavil Babilòn.
2 And the king of Babylon's army was then besieging Jerusalem; and the prophet Jeremiah was shut up in the court of the guard, which was in the king of Judah's house.
Lame wa Babilòn lan te sènen lavil Jerizalèm. Yo te arete pwofèt Jeremi, yo te fèmen l' nan lakou palè wa Jida a kote gad yo ye a.
3 For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, Why dost thou prophesy and say, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it;
Se Sedesyas, wa peyi Jida a, ki te fè fèmen pwofèt la la, paske li t'ap fè l' repwòch dèske li te bay mesaj sa a nan non Bondye Seyè a: M'ap lage lavil Jerizalèm nan men wa Babilòn lan. L'ap pran l'.
4 and Zedekiah king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans; for he shall certainly be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shall speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall behold his eyes;
Wa Sedesyas p'ap chape anba men moun Kalde yo. M'ap lage l' nan men wa Babilòn lan. L'a konparèt devan wa a, y'a pale yonn ak lòt, je nan je.
5 and he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith Jehovah: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper?
Apre sa, y'a mennen Sedesyas lavil Babilòn, li va rete la jouk m'a regle avè l'. Menm si nou goumen ak moun Babilòn yo, nou p'ap janm genyen lagè a. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
6 And Jeremiah said, The word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Lè sa a, Jeremi rakonte ki jan Seyè a te pale avè l'. Seyè a te di l' konsa:
7 Behold, Hanameel, the son of Shallum thine uncle, shall come unto thee, saying, Buy for thyself my field which is in Anathoth; for thine is the right of redemption, to buy [it].
-Anamèl, kouzen ou lan, pitit Chaloum, tonton ou bò papa, pral vin wè ou. Li pral mande ou pou achte yon jaden li genyen lavil Anatòt, paske se ou menm ki fanmi pi pre ak li, se ou menm an premye ki gen dwa achte l'.
8 And Hanameel, mine uncle's son, came to me in the court of the guard according to the word of Jehovah, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine: buy [it] for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of Jehovah.
Se konsa, jan Seyè a te fè m' konnen an, kouzen m' Anamèl vin jwenn mwen nan lakou palè kote gad yo ye a. Li mande m' pou m' achte yon jaden li te genyen lavil Anatòt, nan peyi moun Benjamen yo. Li di se mwen an premye ki gen dwa achte l' paske se mwen ki fanmi pi pre ak li. Konsa, se mwen ki pou achte l' nan men l'. Lè sa a, mwen vin sèten se Seyè a menm ki te pale avè m'.
9 And I bought of Hanameel, mine uncle's son, the field which is in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, seventeen shekels of silver.
M' achte jaden an nan men Anamèl, pitit tonton m' lan, mwen peze lajan pou m' ba li a. Lajan an te rive disèt pyès an ajan.
10 And I subscribed the writing, and sealed it, and took witnesses, and weighed the money in the balances.
Apre sa, mwen siyen de papye tè yo, mwen mete so m' sou yonn. Mwen fè temwen yo siyen tou, mwen fè kontwole pèz lajan an nan balans.
11 And I took the writing of the purchase, that which was sealed [according to] the law and the statutes, and that which was open;
Apre sa, mwen pran de papye tè yo. Sa ki te sele a te gen kontra lavant lan jan lalwa mande l' la. Lòt papye a te rete tou louvri.
12 and I gave the writing of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Nerijah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle's [son], and in the presence of the witnesses that had subscribed the writing of purchase, before all the Jews that were sitting in the court of the guard.
Mwen renmèt papye tè yo bay Bawouk, pitit gason Nerija, pitit pitit Makseja, devan Anamèl, kouzen m' lan, devan lòt temwen ki te siyen papye tè yo, devan tout moun peyi Jida ki te la nan lakou gad palè a.
13 And I charged Baruch in their presence, saying,
Devan yo tout, mwen di Bawouk konsa:
14 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Take these writings, this writing of the purchase, both that which is sealed and this writing which is open; and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may remain many days.
-Men lòd Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, bay. Pran de papye tè sa yo, sa ki sele a ak sa ki tou louvri a, mete yo nan yon ti kannari pou yo ka konsève pandan lontan.
15 For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Houses and fields and vineyards shall again be purchased in this land.
Paske yon lè yo va achte kay, jaden ak pye rezen nan peyi a ankò. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
16 And after I had given the writing of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Nerijah, I prayed unto Jehovah saying,
Apre mwen te fin bay Bawouk, pitit gason Nerija a, papye tè yo, mwen lapriyè Seyè a, mwen di l':
17 Alas, Lord Jehovah! Behold, thou hast made the heavens and the earth by thy great power and stretched-out arm; there is nothing too hard for thee:
-Aa, Seyè, Bondye! Se avèk fòs kouraj ou, se avèk gwo pouvwa ou ou te fè syèl la ak latè a. Anyen pa twò difisil pou ou.
18 who shewest mercy unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them, thou, the great, the mighty God, — Jehovah of hosts is his name;
Ou fè mil jenerasyon nan yon fanmi wè jan ou gen bon kè. Men tou, ou fè pitit peye pou peche papa ak manman yo te fè. Ou se yon Bondye ki gen pouvwa, ki gen fòs. Yo rele ou: Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a.
19 great in counsel and mighty in work, whose eyes are open upon all the ways of the children of men, to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:
Plan travay ou, se gwo zafè. Yo pa ka konte bèl bagay ou fè yo. Je ou louvri sou tou sa moun ap fè, pou bay chak moun sa yo merite dapre sa yo fè, dapre jan yo mennen bak yo.
20 who hast displayed signs and wonders unto this day, in the land of Egypt and in Israel and among [other] men; and hast made thee a name, as at this day.
Depi nan tan lontan rive jouk jounen jòdi a, ou te fè mirak ak mèvèy nan peyi Lejip, nan peyi Izrayèl ak nan tout lòt nasyon yo. Konsa, koulye a yo konnen ou toupatou.
21 And thou broughtest forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt by signs, and by wonders, and by a powerful hand, and by a stretched-out arm, and by great terror;
Ou fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip ak fòs ponyèt ou ak gwo kouraj ou. Ou te fè anpil mirak ak anpil mèvèy, anpil bagay ki te fè moun pè.
22 and didst give them this land, which thou hadst sworn unto their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Ou te ba yo peyi ou te pwomèt ou t'ap bay zansèt yo a, peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo.
23 And they came in and possessed it: but they hearkened not unto thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do; so that thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them.
Yo rive nan peyi a, yo pran l' pou yo, men yo derefize koute ou. Yo pa viv jan ou te mande yo viv la. Yo pa fè tou sa ou te ba yo lòd fè a. Se konsa, ou voye tout gwo malè sa a sou yo jòdi a.
24 Behold the mounds, they are come unto the city for taking it; and the city is given over into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, by the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and behold, thou seest [it].
Moun Babilòn yo sènen lavil la, y'ap anpile tè nan pye miray yo, y'ap pwoche pou yo pran lavil la. Nou ta mèt di lavil la nan men yo deja. Lagè, grangou ak move maladi fin kraze kouraj moun yo. Ou wè sa ou te di a rive vre.
25 And thou, Lord Jehovah, thou hast said unto me, Buy for thyself the field for money, and take witnesses; — and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Wi, sa ki rete pou lavil la tonbe nan men moun Babilòn yo pa anyen. Poukisa atò, Seyè Bondye, ou ban m' lòd achte jaden sa a pou lajan kach devan temwen?
26 And the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò, li di l' konsa:
27 Behold, I am Jehovah, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for me?
-Mwen menm Seyè a, mwen se Bondye tout moun sou latè. Pa gen anyen ki twò difisil pou m' fè.
28 Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, and he shall take it.
Se poutèt sa, mwen menm mwen di ou: m'ap lage lavil sa a nan men moun Babilòn yo, nan men Nèbikadneza, wa yo a! Y'ap pran lavil la.
29 And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come in and set fire to this city, and shall burn it, and the houses upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink-offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.
Moun Babilòn k'ap atake lavil la pral antre ladan l'. Y'ap mete dife, y'ap boule l'. Y'ap mete dife nan kay kote moun yo te fè m' fache anpil la, lè yo te moute anwo twati a pou boule lansan pou Baal, pou fè ofrann diven pou lòt bondye.
30 For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have been doing only evil in my sight from their youth; for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saith Jehovah.
Paske, moun Izrayèl yo ak moun Jida yo, se sa ki mal ase y'ap fè depi nan konmansman. Wi, moun Izrayèl yo, se fache y'ap fè m' fache ase ak tou sa y'ap fè a. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
31 For this city hath been to me [a provocation] of mine anger and of my fury from the day that they built it even unto this day; that I should remove it from before my face,
Lavil Jerizalèm sa a, depi jou yo te bati l' la rive jouk jòdi a, se kòlè l'ap fè m' fè, se move san l'ap fè m' fè. Kifè koulye a, mwen pa ka wè l' devan je m' ankò.
32 because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Akòz tou sa moun peyi Izrayèl yo ak moun peyi Jida yo te fè ki mal, m' about ak yo tout, ni wa yo, ni chèf yo, ni prèt yo, ni pwofèt yo, ni moun peyi Jida yo, ni moun lavil Jerizalèm yo.
33 And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face; and though I taught them, rising early and teaching, they hearkened not to receive instruction.
Yo vire do ban mwen. Malgre mwen pa t' janm sispann montre yo sa pou yo fè, yo pa t' vle koute m', yo pa vle aprann.
34 And they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it;
Yo mete vye zidòl yo nan tanp yo te mete apa pou mwen an, yo fè tanp lan pa nan kondisyon pou sèvi m' ankò.
35 and they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause to pass through [the fire] their sons and their daughters unto Molech: which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
Yo bati lotèl pou Baal nan Fon Benninon an, yo ofri pitit gason yo ak pitit fi yo pou yo touye pou Molòk, bagay mwen pa t' janm ba yo lòd fè, bagay ki pa t' janm vin nan lide m'. Lè yo fè bagay degoutan sa a, yo fè pèp Jida a tonbe nan peche.
36 And now therefore Jehovah, the God of Israel, saith thus concerning this city, whereof ye say, It hath been given over into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence:
Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, pale ak Jeremi, li di l' konsa: -Koulye a mwen ta renmen di yon lòt bagay sou lavil Jerizalèm. Ou te di ansanm ak lòt yo: Lagè, grangou ak move maladi ap fini ak lavil la, l'ap tonbe nan men wa Babilòn lan.
37 Behold, I will gather them out of all the countries whither I have driven them, in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely.
Enben, wi! Mwen te fache sou yo, mwen te move anpil, mwen te fè gwo kòlè. Lè sa a, mwen gaye yo nan yon bann peyi. Men, mwen pral sanble yo, m'ap mennen yo tounen isit la ankò pou yo ka viv san kè sote.
38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
Lè sa a, yo menm y'a tounen pèp ki apa pou mwen an ankò, mwen menm m'a tounen Bondye yo ankò.
39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me all [their] days, for the good of them, and of their children after them.
Sèl lide m'ap mete nan tèt yo tout, sèl anvi m'a ba yo tout, se pou yo gen krentif pou mwen tout tan. Se va pou byen yo ak pou byen pitit pitit yo.
40 And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not draw back from them, to do them good; and I will put my fear in their heart, that they may not turn aside from me.
M'ap pase yon kontra ak yo ki p'ap janm kase. M'ap pran angajman mwen p'ap janm lage yo. Mwen p'ap janm sispann fè yo byen. Wi, m'a fè yo gen krentif pou mwen ak tout kè yo. Konsa, yo p'ap janm vire do ban mwen ankò.
41 And I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
M'a pran plezi pou m' fè yo byen. M'a travay ak tout kè m' ak tout nanm mwen pou yo pran rasin nèt nan peyi a.
42 For thus saith Jehovah: Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have spoken concerning them.
Seyè a di ankò: Menm jan se mwen menm ki te fè gwo malè sa a rive pèp la, konsa tou, se mwen menm ki pral ba yo tout bon bagay mwen te pwomèt m'ap ba yo.
43 And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
W'ap di ansanm ak lòt moun yo: Peyi a fini. Pa gen yon moun, pa gen yon bèt ladan l'. Yo lage peyi a nan men moun Babilòn yo. Men yon lè, moun va achte tè nan peyi a ankò.
44 [Men] shall buy fields for money, and subscribe the writings, and seal them, and take witnesses, in the land of Benjamin, and in the environs of Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the hill-country, and in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the south: for I will turn their captivity, saith Jehovah.
Wi, nan tout peyi Benjamen an, nan tout ti bouk ki nan vwazinaj lavil Jerizalèm yo, nan tout lavil Jida yo, nan lavil ki nan mòn yo, nan tout lavil ki nan plenn yo, bò lanmè, ak nan sid peyi a, moun va achte jaden, y'a pase papye tè, y'a sele yo, y'a fè temwen siyen yo. Paske m'ap fè pèp la tounen nan peyi a ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa. Jerizalèm
