Jeremiah 49
1 Unto the children of Ammon thus saith the Lord, Hath Israel no sonnes? or hath he none heire? Why then hath their king possessed God? and his people dwelt in his cities?
Men sa Seyè a di sou moun peyi Amon yo: -Gen lè pa gen gason ankò nan peyi Izrayèl la? Pa gen moun pou defann tè zansèt yo a? Poukisa yo kite se moun k'ap sèvi Milkòm yo ki pran pòsyon tè fanmi Gad la pou yo? Poukisa se moun Amon yo ki rete nan lavil yo?
2 Therefore beholde the dayes come, sayeth the Lord, that I will cause a noyse of warre to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites, and it shall be a desolate heape, and her daughters shall be burnt with fire: then shall Israel possesse those that possessed him, sayeth the Lord.
Se sa ki fè men jou a ap rive. Se mwen menm Seyè a k'ap pale la a. Mwen pral fè moun ki rete Raba, kapital peyi Amon an, tande bri lagè. Lavil la pral tounen yon pil wòch. Yo pral boule ti bouk li yo ratè. Lè sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo va reprann tè ki te pou yo a.
3 Howle, O Heshbon, for Ai is wasted: crie ye daughters of Rabbah: girde you with sackecloth: mourne and runne to and from by the hedges: for their King shall goe into captiuitie; and his Priestes, and his princes likewise.
Nou menm moun lavil Esbon, plenn sò nou! Lavil Ayi fini! Medam lavil Raba yo, mare ren nou! Mete rad sak sou nou! Rele! Pran lari pou nou! Y'ap depòte Milkòm, bondye nou an, ansanm ak tout pè li yo ak tout chèf li yo!
4 Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleis? thy valley floweth away, O rebellious daughter: she trusted in her treasures, saying, Who shall come vnto me?
Poukisa n'ap fè grandizè konsa? Jan nou te kontan fon nou yo! Men fon yo tonbe. Bann moun tèt di, nou te mete konfyans nou nan richès nou. Nou t'ap di: Pa gen moun ki ka penmèt yo atake nou!
5 Beholde, I will bring a feare vpon thee, sayth the Lord God of hostes, of all those that be about thee, and ye shalbe scattered euery man right foorth, and none shall gather him that fleeth.
Mwen pral fè yon sèl laperèz pran nou. Se mwen menm sèl mèt la, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki di sa. Mwen pral fè tout vwazen nou yo fè nou tranble. Yo pral gaye nou. Chak moun pral kouri ale sou bò pa yo. P'ap gen pesonn pou fè yo sanble ankò.
6 And afterward I will bring againe the captiuitie of the children of Ammon.
Men apre sa, m'ap mete peyi Amon an kanpe ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
7 To Edom thus sayeth the Lord of hostes: Is wisdome no more in Teman? is counsel perished from their children? is their wisdome vanished?
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di sou peyi Edon: -Pa gen moun ki gen bon konprann ankò lavil Teman an? Moun lespri yo pa konn sa pou yo di. Yo pèdi tout konprann yo!
8 Flee, ye inhabitants of Dedan (they are turned backe, and haue consulted to dwell) for I haue brought the destruction of Esau vpon him, and the time of his visitation.
Nou menm moun lavil Dedan, vire do nou, kouri ale! Fè twou pou kache kò nou! Mwen pral fini ak moun Ezaou yo, paske lè pou m' regle ak yo a rive.
9 If the grape gatherers come to thee, would they not leaue some grapes? if theeues come by night, they will destroy till they haue ynough.
Lè moun ap ranmase rekòt rezen, yo toujou kite dèyè pou moun k'ap vin grapiye yo. Lè vòlò antre lakay moun lannwit, yo annik pran sa yo bezwen.
10 For I haue discouered Esau: I haue vncouered his secrets, and he shall not be able to hide himselfe: his seede is wasted, and his brethren and his neighbours, and there shall be none to say,
Men mwen menm, mwen pral kite moun Ezaou yo toutouni. Mwen pral fè moun konnen tout kachèt li yo. Konsa, nanpwen kache pou yo ankò. Tout ras moun Edon yo, tout fanmi yo ak tout moun nan vwazinaj yo pral disparèt.
11 Leaue thy fathers children, and I will preserue them aliue, and let thy widowes trust in me.
Pa gen pesonn k'ap rete pou di: Kite timoun ki san papa yo avè m'. M'a okipe yo. Vèv nou yo mèt konte sou mwen.
12 For thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, they whose iudgement was not to drinke of the cuppe, haue assuredly drunken, and art thou he that shall escape free? thou shalt not goe free, but thou shalt surely drinke of it.
Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Ata moun ki pa merite pou m' pini yo pral gen pou yo bwè gode chatiman an nèt ale. Se nou menm atò pou yo pa ta pini! Non. Yo p'ap pini nou? Se pou nou bwè nan gode chatiman an tou.
13 For I haue sworne by my selfe, sayeth the Lord, that Bozrah shall be waste, and for a reproche, and a desolation, and a curse, and all the cities thereof shall be perpetuall desolations.
Se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap pale: Mwen fè sèman sou tèt mwen, m'ap fè lavil Bozra tounen yon dezè, yon pil vye mazi. Moun ap pase l' nan betiz, y'ap sèvi ak non l' pou bay madichon. Tout ti bouk nan vwazinaj li yo pral tounen yon pil vye mazi pou tout tan.
14 I haue heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassadour is sent vnto the heathen, saying, Gather you together, and come against her, and rise vp to the battell.
Jeremi di ankò: -Mwen te tande mesaj Seyè a bay la. Li te voye mesaje nan tout nasyon yo pou di yo sanble tout lame yo pou yo mache pran Edon, pou y' al goumen avè l'.
15 For loe, I will make thee but small among the heathen, and despised among men.
Seyè a pral fè peyi a vin tou fèb nan mitan nasyon yo. Pesonn p'ap respekte nou.
16 Thy feare, and ye pride of thine heart hath deceiued thee, thou that dwellest in the cleftes of the rocke, and keepest the height of ye hil: though thou shouldest make thy nest as hie as the eagle, I wil bring thee downe from thece, sayth the Lord.
Se awogans ou ki fè ou pèdi tèt ou. Pa gen moun ki pè ou jan ou kwè l' la. Ou rete sou tèt gwo wòch yo, byen wo nan mòn yo. Ou te mèt bati kay ou byen wo tankou nich malfini, m'ap fè ou desann. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
17 Also Edom shall be desolate: euery one that goeth by it, shall be astonished, and shall hisse at all the plagues thereof,
Seyè a di ankò: Se konsa peyi Edon an pral tounen yon dezè k'ap bay gwo lapenn. Tout moun k'ap pase bò la pral pran sezisman, y'ap pè.
18 As in the ouerthrowe of Sodom, and of Gomorah, and the places thereof neere about, saieth the Lord: no man shall dwell there, neither shall the sonnes of men remaine in it.
Gwo malè sa ki te rive lavil Sodòm ak Gomò ansanm ak tout ti bouk nan vwazinaj yo, se malè sa a k'ap rive Edon tou. P'ap gen yon moun nan peyi a ankò. Pesonn p'ap rete la. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
19 Beholde, hee shall come vp like a lyon from the swelling of Iorden vnto the strong dwelling place: for I will make Israel to rest, euen I will make him to haste away from her, and who is a chosen man that I may appoynt against her? for who is like mee? and who will appoint me the time? and who is the shepheard that will stande before me?
Tankou yon lyon k'ap soti nan rakbwa bò larivyè Jouden an pou l' ale kote bèt yo ye nan savann yo, mwen menm Seyè a, m'ap vini, m'ap fè moun yo kouri kite peyi a anvan yo bat je yo. Lè sa a, se moun m'a chwazi a m'a mete pou gouvènen peyi a. Ki moun ki tankou m'? Ki moun ki ka koresponn avè m'? Ki chèf ki ka kenbe tèt avè m'?
20 Therefore heare the counsell of the Lord that hee hath deuised against Edom, and his purpose that hee hath conceiued against the inhabitants of Teman: surely the least of the flocke shall drawe them out: surely he shall make their habitations desolate with them.
Konsa, koute sa mwen soti pou m' fè moun Edon yo, sa mwen fè lide fè moun lavil Teman yo. Sèten, ata timoun yo, yo pral trennen pot ale. Yo pral devaste tout peyi a devan je yo.
21 The earth is mooued at the noyse of their fall: the crie of their voice is heard in the red Sea.
Lè peyi Edon an tonbe, l'ap fè yon kokennchenn bri, latè ap tranble. Y'ap tande rèl moun yo jouk bò lanmè Wozo yo.
22 Behold, he shall come vp, and flie as the Egle, and spreade his wings ouer Bozrah, and at that day shall the heart of the strong men of Edome be as the heart of a woman in trauaile.
Tankou malfini k'ap plonje ak zèl li yo gran louvri, lènmi pral atake Bozra. Jou sa yo, vanyan sòlda peyi Edon yo pral pè tankou fanm ki gen tranche.
23 Vnto Damascus he sayeth, Hamath is confounded and Arpad, for they haue heard euill tidings, and they are faint hearted as one on the fearefull sea that can not rest.
Men sa Seyè a di sou peyi Damas la: -Moun lavil Amat ak moun lavil Apad yo gen kè kase paske yo tande move nouvèl. Tankou lanmè, yo boulvèse, yo pa ka rete an plas.
24 Damascus is discouraged, and turneth her selfe to flight and feare hath seased her: anguish and sorowes haue taken her as a woman in trauaile.
Moun Damas yo fèb, yo kouri met deyò. Yo pè, yon sèl tranbleman pran yo. Yo nan lapenn, yo gen kè kase tankou fanm ki gen tranche.
25 How is the glorious citie not reserued, the citie of my ioy?
Gade lavil tout moun te konnen an, lavil kote tout moun te gen kè kontan an! Pa gen yon moun ladan l'.
26 Therefore her yong men shall fall in her streetes, and all her men of warre shall be cut off in that day, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
Jou sa a, y'ap touye jenn gason nou yo nan tout lari. Tout sòlda yo pral mouri. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a menm ki di sa.
27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, which shall cosume the palaces of Benhadad.
M'ap mete dife nan miray Damas yo. Dife a ap boule palè wa Bennadad la.
28 Vnto Kedar, and to the kingdomes of Hazor, which Nebuchad-nezzar, king of Babel shall smite, thus sayeth the Lord, Arise, and goe vp vnto Kedar, and destroy the men of the East.
Moun branch fanmi Keda yo ak chèf lavil Azò yo te pèdi batay la devan Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan. Men mesaj Seyè a bay sou yo: -Leve non! Ann mache pran Keda! Piye moun bò solèy leve yo.
29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take away: yea, they shall take to themselues their curtaines and all their vessels, and their camels, and they shall crie vnto them, Feare is on euery side.
Pran tant yo, kabrit yo, mouton yo, rido tant yo ansanm ak tout lòt bagay ki nan tant yo. Pran chamo yo. Di byen fò nan zòrèy yo: Kote ou pase tout moun pè.
30 Flee, get you farre off (they haue consulted to dwell) O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the Lord: for Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel hath taken counsell against you, and hath deuised a purpose against you.
Nou menm moun lavil Azò, kouri met deyò, al kache kò nou nan twou! Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa. Paske Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, fè lide pou l' kraze nou. Li soti pou l' fini ak nou.
31 Arise, and get you vp vnto the welthy nation that dwelleth without care, saith the Lord, which haue neither gates nor barres, but dwel alone.
Men sa Seyè a di ankò: Leve non! Ann al atake yon nasyon ki santi yo t' alèz san ankenn danje sou tèt yo! Pa gen pòtay nan lavil yo, ni ba fè pou fèmen yo. Yo la konsa san ankenn pwoteksyon.
32 And their camels shall be a bootie, and the multitude of their cattel a spoile, and I will scatter them into all windes, and to the vtmost corners, and I will bring their destruction from al the sides thereof, sayeth the Lord.
Yo pral pran tout chamo yo, yo pral separe tout kabrit ak mouton yo. Wi, m'ap gaye yo nan tout direksyon, bann moun sa yo ki koupe cheve yo kout. Kote yo pase m'ap fè malè tonbe sou yo. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
33 And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and desolation for euer: there shall no man dwell there, nor the sonnes of men remaine in it.
M'ap fè zòn Azò a tounen yon dezè pou tout tan, kote bèt nan bwa rete. Pesonn p'ap rete ladan l' ankò. Ankenn moun p'ap viv la.
34 The woordes of the Lord that came to Ieremiah the Prophet, concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reigne of Zedekiah King of Iudah, saying,
Men mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Jeremi sou peyi Elam. Lè sa a, Sedesyas te fèk moute wa nan peyi Jida.
35 Thus sayeth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will breake the bowe of Elam, euen the chiefe of their strength.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di: -Mwen pral touye tout sòlda peyi Elam ki gen ladrès pou sèvi ak banza yo. Se yo menm ki te fè tout fòs peyi a.
36 And vpon Elam I will bring the foure windes from the foure quarters of heauen, and will scatter them towardes all these windes, and there shall bee no nation, whither the fugitiues of Elam shall not come.
M'ap fè van leve nan tout direksyon pou soufle sou peyi Elam lan. M'ap gaye yo nan tout direksyon sou latè. M'ap mete tout moun li yo deyò. p'ap gen peyi sou latè kote ou p'ap jwenn yo.
37 For I will cause Elam to be afraied before their enemies, and before them that seeke their liues, and will bring vpon them a plague, euen the indignation of my wrath, saieth the Lord, and I wil sende the sworde after them till I haue consumed them.
M'ap fè moun Elam yo tranble devan lènmi yo, devan moun ki soti pou touye yo. M'ap fè gwo kòlè, m'ap voye gwo malè sou yo, m'ap lage yon gwo lame dèyè yo jouk m'a fini nèt ak yo.
38 And I wil set my throne in Elam, and I wil destroy both the King and the princes from thence, saith the Lord:
M'ap disparèt wa yo a ansanm ak tout lòt chèf yo. Se la m'ap mete fotèy mwen an. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
39 but in the latter daies I wil bring againe the captiuitie of Elam, sayeth the Lord.
Men, nan jou k'ap vini apre sa yo, m'ap mete peyi Elam lan kanpe ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
