< Jeremiah 30 >
1 The worde, that came to Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,
Men mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Jeremi:
2 Thus speaketh the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the wordes, that I haue spoken vnto thee in a booke.
-Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, k'ap pale avè ou. Ekri nan yon liv tou sa mwen te di ou.
3 For loe, the dayes come, saith the Lord, that I wil bring againe the captiuitie of my people Israel and Iudah, saith the Lord: for I will restore them vnto the lande, that I gaue to their fathers, and they shall possesse it.
Paske, talè konsa mwen pral fè pèp mwen an, moun Izrayèl yo ansanm ak moun Jida yo kanpe ankò. M'ap mennen yo tounen nan peyi mwen te bay zansèt yo, y'a reprann peyi a pou yo ankò.
4 Againe, these are the wordes that the Lord spake concerning Israel, and concerning Iudah.
Men mesaj Seyè a voye bay moun Izrayèl yo ansanm ak moun Jida yo.
5 For thus saith the Lord, wee haue heard a terrible voyce, of feare and not of peace.
Mwen tande moun ap rele anmwe. Tout moun tèt anba, yo pa konn sa pou yo fè.
6 Demand now and beholde, if man trauayle with childe? wherefore doe I beholde euery man with his hands on his loynes as a woman in trauaile, and all faces are turned into a palenesse?
Mande sa ki genyen! Al gade non! Eske gason konn pouse pitit? Poukisa mwen wè tout gason men anba tivant tankou fanm ki gen tranche? Y'ap dekonpoze, figi yo rale.
7 Alas, for this day is great: none hath bene like it: it is euen the time of Iaakobs trouble, yet shall he be deliuered from it.
Ala malè, mezanmi! Se yon gwo jou malè k'ap vini. Pa gen jou ki ka parèt devan li. Se va yon tan lafliksyon pou fanmi Jakòb la! Men, y'a chape anba l'.
8 For in that day, sayth the Lord of hostes, I will breake his yoke from off thy necke, and breake thy bondes, and strangers shall no more serue themselues of him.
Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò: Lè jou sa a va vini, m'a kraze jouk bèf ki dèyè kou yo a, m'a kase chenn ki nan ren yo a. Yo p'ap janm esklav moun lòt nasyon ankò.
9 But they shall serue the Lord their God, and Dauid their King, whom I will raise vp vnto them.
Se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye yo a, y'a sèvi ansanm ak yon pitit David m'a mete wa sou yo.
10 Therefore feare not, O my seruant Iaakob, saith the Lord, neither be afrayde, O Israel: for loe, I will deliuer thee from a farre countrey, and thy seede from the lande of their captiuitie, and Iaakob shall turne againe, and shalbe in rest and prosperitie and none shall make him afraide.
Nou pa bezwen pè, nou menm pitit Jakòb, sèvitè mwen an. Nou pa bezwen tranble, nou menm moun pèp Izrayèl. M'ap vin delivre nou nan peyi lwen sa yo. M'ap vin sove pitit nou yo nan peyi kote yo te depòte nou an. N'ap tounen lakay nou pou nou viv ak kè poze, san pesonn pa chache nou kont ankò.
11 For I am with thee, sayth the Lord, to saue thee: though I vtterly destroy all the nations where I haue scattered thee, yet will I not vtterly destroy thee, but I will correct thee by iudgement, and not vtterly cut thee off.
M'ap vin jwenn nou, m'ap sove nou. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa. M'ap disparèt tout nasyon kote mwen te gaye nou yo. Nou menm, mwen p'ap detwi nou. Men, pou pini se pou m' pini nou, jan sa dwe fèt. Mwen p'ap kite anyen pou nou.
12 For thus saith the Lord, Thy bruising is incurable, and thy wound is dolorous.
Men sa Seyè a di pèp li a ankò: Pou jan ou donmaje a, pa gen renmèd pou ou. Malenng ou an p'ap janm geri.
13 There is none to iudge thy cause, or to lay a plaister: there are no medicines, nor help for thee.
Pa gen pesonn pou defann kòz ou. Se vre, yo konn geri malenng. Men, pou malenng pa ou la, pa gen renmèd.
14 All thy louers haue forgotten thee: they seeke thee not: for I haue striken thee with the wound of an enemie, and with a sharpe chastisement for ye multitude of thine iniquities, because thy sinnes were increased.
Tout moun ki t'ap fè lamou avè ou yo bliye ou. Yo yonn pa okipe ou ankò. Mwen frape ou, tankou si m' te lènmi ou. Pinisyon an te rèd pou ou, paske peche ou la te grav anpil. Ou te fè anpil gwo mechanste.
15 Why cryest thou for thine affliction? thy sorowe is incurable, for the multitude of thine iniquities: because thy sinnes were increased, I haue done these things vnto thee.
Poukisa w'ap plenyen pou jan ou donmaje a, pou soufrans ou ki pa ka fini an? Se paske peche ou la te grav anpil, ou te fè anpil gwo mechanste kifè mwen pini ou konsa.
16 Therefore all they that deuoure thee, shall be deuoured, and all thine enemies euery one shall goe into captiuitie: and they that spoyle thee, shalbe spoyled, and all they that robbe thee, wil I giue to be robbed.
Men, yon lè yo gen pou yo devore moun k'ap devore ou koulye a. Y'ap fè tout moun ki pa vle wè ou yo prizonye, y'ap depòte yo. Y'ap piye moun k'ap piye ou yo. Y'ap fini ak moun k'ap fini avè ou yo.
17 For I will restore health vnto thee, and I will heale thee of thy woundes, saith the Lord, because they called thee, The cast away, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.
Nou menm moun Siyon, yo te rele nou: moun yo mete deyò. Yo t'ap di: pa gen moun pou okipe nou. Men, se mwen menm k'ap ban nou renmèd, k'ap geri tout malenng nou yo. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
18 Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will bring againe the captiuitie of Iaakobs tentes, and haue compassion on his dwelling places: and the citie shalbe builded vpon her owne heape, and the palace shall remaine after the maner thereof.
Seyè a di ankò: -Mwen pral fè moun fanmi Jakòb yo te depòte yo tounen lakay yo. Mwen pral gen pitye pou chak fanmi. Yo pral rebati lavil yo sou anplasman vye mazi yo. Yo pral rebati gwo bèl kay yo kote yo te ye anvan an.
19 And out of them shall proceede thankesgiuing, and the voyce of them that are ioyous, and I will multiplie them, and they shall not bee fewe: I will also glorifie them, and they shall not be diminished.
Y'a tande moun ap chante lakay yo, y'a tande moun ap rele tèlman yo kontan. M'ap fè yo peple, yo p'ap fin disparèt. M'ap fè moun fè lwanj yo. Moun p'ap meprize yo ankò.
20 Their children also shall be as afore time, and their congregation shall be established before me: and I will visite all that vexe them.
Pitit gason yo va tankou nan tan lontan. M'ap fè peyi a kanpe byen fèm ankò devan mwen. M'a pini tout moun k'ap peze yo.
21 And their noble ruler shall be of themselues, and their gouernour shall proceede from the middes of them, and I will cause him to draw neere, and approche vnto me: for who is this that directeth his heart to come vnto mee, saith the Lord?
Se yonn nan nou ki va chèf nan peyi a. Wi, se nan mitan nou yon chèf va soti pou gouvènen nou. L'a vin jwenn mwen lè m'a rele l'. Paske pesonn p'ap pran chans vin jwenn mwen si mwen pa rele l'. Se Seyè a ki di sa.
22 And ye shall be my people, and I will bee your God.
Lè sa a, se pèp mwen y'a ye ankò, mwen menm m'a Bondye yo.
23 Beholde, the tempest of the Lord goeth foorth with wrath: the whirlewinde that hangeth ouer, shall light vpon the head of the wicked.
Lè Bondye ankòlè se tankou yon van tanpèt, yon siklòn k'ap tonbe sou tèt mechan yo.
24 The fierce wrath of the Lord shall not returne, vntill he haue done, and vntill he haue performed the intents of his heart: in the latter dayes ye shall vnderstand it.
Li p'ap sispann toutotan li pa fin fè tou sa li soti pou li fè a. Nan jou k'ap vini yo, pèp la va konprann sa pi byen.
