Jeremiah 36
1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò. Lè sa a, Jojakim, pitit Jozyas la, t'ap mache sou katran depi li te wa peyi Jida. Men sa Seyè a te di Jeremi:
2 Take thee a roll-book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day that I spoke unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even until this day.
-Pran yon woulo papye. W'a kouche sou li tou sa mwen te di ou sou peyi Izrayèl la, sou peyi Jida a ak sou tout lòt nasyon yo. W'a ekri tout mesaj mwen te ba ou, depi sou rèy wa Jozyas rive jouk jòdi a.
3 Peradventure it be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them: in order that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
Ou pa janm konnen, lè moun peyi Jida yo va tande tout malè mwen fè lide voye sou yo, y'a konprann, y'a manyè kite move pant y'ap swiv la. Lè sa a, m'a padonnen tout mechanste ak peche yo te fè yo.
4 Then did Jeremiah call Baruch the son of Neriyah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll-book.
Se konsa, Jeremi rele Bawouk, pitit gason Nerija a, li dikte l' tout mesaj Seyè a te ba li epi Bawouk ekri yo nan woulo liv la.
5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I am not able to enter into the house of the Lord:
Apre sa, Jeremi bay Bawouk lòd sa yo: -Yo defann mwen antre nan tanp Seyè a. Mwen pa ka mete pye m' la.
6 Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the Lord before the ears of the people in the house of the Lord on the fast-day; and also before the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities shalt thou read them.
Men ou menm, ou prale nan tanp lan jou pou pèp la fè jèn lan. Ou pral li nan woulo liv ou te ekri a tou sa mwen te dikte ou la, tout mesaj Seyè a te bay yo. Ou pral li l' byen fò pou tout moun ki nan tanp lan ka tande, pou moun ki soti nan lavil peyi Jida yo ka tande tou.
7 Perhaps it may be that they will humbly present their supplication before the Lord, and will return every one from his evil way; for great are the anger and the fury that the Lord hath decreed against this people.
Ou pa janm konnen, yo ka pran lapriyè nan pye Bondye, y'a manyè kite move pant yo t'ap swiv la. Paske Seyè a fè yo konnen li move anpil, li fache anpil sou pèp la.
8 And Baruch the son of Neriyah did in accordance with all that Jeremiah the prophet had commanded him, to read in the book the words of the Lord in the house of the Lord.
Bawouk, pitit Nerija a, fè tou sa Jeremi te ba li lòd fè a. Li kanpe nan mitan Tanp lan, li li mesaj Seyè yo ki te nan liv la.
9 And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the Lord for all the people in Jerusalem, and for all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem.
Se te nan nevyèm mwa senkyèm lanne rèy Jojakim, pitit Jozyas la, yo te bay lòd pou tout moun lavil Jerizalèm yo ansanm ak tout moun ki te soti nan lavil peyi Jida yo epi ki te nan lavil Jerizalèm lan pou yo fè yon sèvis jèn pou mande Seyè a gras.
10 And Baruch read in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemaryahu the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entrance of the new gate of the Lord's house, before the ears of all the people.
Lè sa a, Bawouk pran liv mesaj Jeremi yo, li li l' nan tanp lan pou tout moun ka tande. Li te kanpe devan pyès chanm Gemarya, pitit gason Chafan an, ki te sekretè tanp lan. Chanm lan te bay sou gwo lakou anwo a, toupre kote yo pase pou antre nan Pòtay Nèf Tanp Seyè a.
11 And when Michayhu the son of Gemaryahu, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord out of the book:
Miche, pitit Gemarya a, pitit pitit Chafan an, te tande tout mesaj Seyè yo ki te ekri nan liv la.
12 He went down into the king's house, into the scribe's chamber; and, lo, all the princes were sitting there, even Elishama' the scribe, and Delayahu the son of Shema'yahu, and Elnathan the son of 'Achbor, and Gemaryahu the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Chananyahu, and all the princes.
Apre sa, li ale lakay wa a, nan biwo sekretè wa a, kote li jwenn tout gwo chèf yo reyini ap travay. Te gen Elichama, sekretè palè a, Delaya, pitit gason Chemaya, Elnatan, pitit Achbò, Gemarya, pitit Chafan, Zedekya, pitit Ananya, ak tout lòt gwo chèf yo.
13 And Michayhu told unto them all the words which he had heard, when Baruch read in the book before the ears of the people.
Miche di yo tou sa li te sot tande Bawouk ap li nan zòrèy pèp la.
14 Thereupon sent all the princes Jehudi the son of Nethanyahu, the son of Shelemyahu, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, The roll wherein thou hast read before the ears of the people, —this take in thy hand, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriyahu took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
Lè sa a, gwo chèf yo voye Jeoudi bò kot Bawouk. Jeoudi sa a, se te pitit Netanya, pitit pitit Chelemya, pitit pitit pitit Kouchi. li al di Bawouk pou li pote woulo liv li te li nan zòrèy pèp la bay chèf yo. Bawouk pote woulo liv la ba yo.
15 And they said unto him, Sit down, we pray thee, and read it before our ears. So Baruch read it before their ears.
Yo di l' konsa: -Chita la, li l' pou nou tande. Bawouk li liv la pou yo.
16 Now it came to pass, when they heard all the words, they looked terrified at each other, and they said unto Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.
Lè yo tande tou sa ki te nan liv la, yo vin pè. Yonn pran gade lòt, epi yo di: -Se pou n' al fè wa a konnen bagay sa yo.
17 And they asked Baruch, saying, Do tell us, How didst thou write down all these words from his mouth?
Lèfini, yo mande Bawouk: -Mangè di nou ki jan ou te fè ka ekri tout bagay sa yo. Se Jeremi ki te dikte ou yo?
18 Then said Baruch unto them, With his mouth did he utter clearly all these words unto me, and I wrote them in the book with ink.
Bawouk reponn yo: -Se Jeremi menm ki te dikte tout mesaj sa yo. Mwen menm, mwen kouche yo sou woulo liv la ak lank.
19 Then said the princes unto Baruch, Go, hide thyself, thou with Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye are.
Lè sa a, chèf yo di Bawouk: -Al kache tande, ou menm ansanm ak Jeremi. Pa kite pyès moun konnen kote nou ye.
20 And they went in to the king into the court, but the roll they had put in safe keeping in the chamber of Elishama' the scribe; and they told before the ears of the king all the words.
Chèf yo kite woulo liv la lakay Elichama, sekretè palè a, y' ale nan lakou palè a, y' al rapòte wa a tout bagay.
21 But the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll; and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama' the scribe. And Jehudi read it before the ears of the king, and before the ears of all the princes who stood around the king.
Lè sa a atò, wa a voye Jeoudi al chache woulo liv la lakay Elichama, sekretè a. Jeoudi pote liv la vini. Li tanmen li li byen fò pou wa a ansanm ak lòt chèf ki te kanpe bò wa a.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter-house in the ninth month: and a pan of coals was burning before him.
Se te nan sezon fredi, nan nevyèm mwa a, wa a te nan kay kote li konn pase tan fredi a, li te chita devan yon gwo recho dife tou limen.
23 And it came to pass, when Jehudi had read three or four pages, that he cut it with the writer's knife, and cast it into the fire that was in the coal-pan, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the coal-pan.
Chak fwa Jeoudi te fin li twa ou kat kolonn nan liv la, wa a koupe yo ak yon ti kouto epi li jete yo nan dife a. Konsa konsa, jouk li boule tout woulo liv la.
24 Yet they were not terrified, nor did they rend their garments, either the king, or any of his servants that had heard all these words.
Men, ni wa a ni chèf li yo pa t' gen kè kase, ni yo pa t' fè anyen pou moutre yo te nan lapenn lè yo tande tou sa ki te nan woulo liv la.
25 And although Elnathan and Delayahu and Gemaryahu had also made intercession with the king that he might not burn the roll, he would not listen to them.
Elnatan, pitit Delaja, ak Gemarya te lapriyè nan pye wa a pou li pa t' boule woulo liv la. Men, wa a pa koute yo.
26 And the king commanded Yerachmeel the son of the king, and Serayahu the son of 'Azriel, and Shelemyahu the son of 'Abdeel, to seize on Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but the Lord hid them.
Okontrè, li pale ak Jerakmeyèl, pitit li a, ansanm ak Seraja, pitit Azryèl la, ak Chelemya, pitit Abdeyèl la. Li ba yo lòd pou yo arete pwofèt Jeremi ansanm ak Bawouk, sekretè l' la. Men Seyè a pa kite yo jwenn yo.
27 Then came the word of the Lord to Jeremiah, after the king had burnt the roll, and the words which Baruch had written down from the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
Apre wa a te fin boule woulo liv ki te gen tout mesaj Jeremi te dikte Bawouk la, Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò. Li di l' konsa:
28 Take thee again another roll, and write on it all the former words that have been on the first roll, which Jehoyakim the king of Judah hath burnt.
-Al chache yon lòt woulo papye. Ekri tou sa ki te nan premye woulo Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a, te boule a.
29 And concerning Jehoyakim the king of Judah shalt thou say, Thus hath said the Lord, Thou hast indeed burnt this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease therefrom man and beast!
Lèfini, men sa w'a di sou Jojakim, wa Jida a. Seyè a pale, li di konsa: Ou boule woulo liv la, pa vre? Epi ou mande Jeremi poukisa li te ekri wa Babilòn lan gen pou l' vini pou l' kraze peyi a, pou l' touye dènye moun ak dènye bèt ki ladan l'.
30 Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning Jehoyakim the king of Judah, He shall have no one to sit upon the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out to the heat in the day, and to the cold in the night.
Se poutèt sa, koulye a, men mesaj mwen menm Seyè a m'ap bay sou Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a: p'ap janm gen yonn nan pitit li yo ki pou chita sou fotèy David la pou gouvènen nan plas li. Kadav li pral rete atè konsa, pou chalè solèy bat li lajounen, pou fredi bat li lannwit.
31 And I will visit on him and on his seed and on his servants their iniquity; and I will bring over them, and over the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and against the men of Judah, all the evil that I have spoken against them, while they did not hearken.
M'ap pini yo, ni li menm ni pitit li yo, ni chèf li yo pou tou sa yo fè ki mal. Ni yo, ni moun lavil Jerizalèm yo, ni moun peyi Jida yo pa t' koute m' lè mwen t'ap avèti yo. M'ap voye sou yo malè mwen te di m'ap voye a.
32 And Jeremiah took another roll, and gave it to Baruch the son of Neriyahu the scribe; who wrote thereon from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoyakim the king of Judah had burnt in the fire: and there were yet added unto them many words like them.
Se konsa Jeremi pran yon lòt woulo liv. Li bay Bawouk, sekretè li a, pitit Nerija a. Bawouk menm ekri tou sa Jeremi te di l'. Li ekri tout mesaj ki te nan premye woulo liv wa Jojakim te boule a, ansanm ak anpil lòt mesaj menm jan ak premye yo.
