Jeremiah 47
1 The wordes of the Lord that came to Ieremiah the Prophet, against the Philistims, before that Pharaoh smote Azzah.
Men mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Jeremi sou peyi Filisti a, anvan farawon an t' al atake Gaza.
2 Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, waters rise vp out of the North, and shalbe as a swelling flood, and shall ouerflowe the land, and all that is therein, and the cities with them that dwell therein: then the men shall crie, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howle,
Seyè a di konsa: -Gade! Bò nan nò, dlo yo ap gonfle, y'ap fè yon gwo lavalas k'ap desann, y'ap anvayi peyi a, y'ap kouvri tou sa ki ladan l'. Y'ap anvayi lavil yo ak tout moun ladan yo. Moun ap rele, y'ap plenn. Tout moun nan peyi a nan gwo lapenn.
3 At the noise and stamping of ye hoofes of his strong horses, at the noise of his charets, and at the rumbling of his wheeles: ye fathers shall not looke backe to their children, for feeblenes of handes,
Lè y'a tande bri zago chwal yo ap frape tè a, bri cha lagè yo k'ap kouri vini ak bri wou yo k'ap woule atè a, papa p'ap ka fè anyen pou pitit yo, tèlman y'a dekouraje.
4 Because of the day that commeth to destroy all the Philistims, and to destroy Tyrus, and Zidon, and all the rest that take their part: for the Lord will destroy the Philistims, the remnant of the yle of Caphtor.
Lè a rive pou yo ravaje tout peyi Filisti a nèt, pou yo disparèt tout rès moun ki t'ap bay lavil Tir ak lavil Sidon konkou. Se mwen menm Seyè a k'ap detwi tout moun Filisti yo, tout moun ki soti nan lil Krèt la.
5 Baldenes is come vpon Azzah: Ashkelon is cut vp with the rest of their valleys. Howe long wilt thou thy selfe?
Moun Gaza yo nan gwo lapenn, yo kale tèt yo. Moun Askalon yo pa ka pale. Kilè rès moun nan fon Filisti a va sispann kòche kò yo ak kouto pou plenn sò mò yo?
6 O thou sword of the Lord, how long will it be or thou cease! turne againe into thy scaberd, rest and be still.
Adye! Kilè nepe Seyè a va sispann touye moun? Tounen nan djenn ou! Rete tou dousman, poze kò ou la!
7 Howe can it cease, seeing the Lord hath giuen it a charge against Ashkelon, and against the sea banke? euen there hath he appointed it.
Men, ki jan pou li fè poze lè Seyè a ba li lòd travay? Li gen pou l' ale jouk lavil Askalon dèyè moun ki rete bò lanmè a. Se la mwen voye l' ale.
