Jeremiah 43
1 And it comes to pass, when Jeremiah finishes speaking to all the people all the words of their God YHWH, with which their God YHWH has sent him to them—all these words—
Men la menm Jérémie, ke SENYÈ a, Bondye pa yo a, te voye a, te fin pale tout pèp la tout pawòl a SENYÈ a, Bondye pa yo a—— sa vle di, tout pawòl sila yo——
2 that Azariah son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the proud men, speak to Jeremiah, saying, “You are speaking falsehood; our God YHWH has not sent you to say, Do not enter Egypt to sojourn there;
Azaria, fis a Hosée, Jochanan, fis a Karéach e tout mesye ògeye yo te di a Jérémie: “W ap bay manti! SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pa t voye ou di: ‘Nou p ap antre Égypte pou rete la’.
3 for Baruch son of Neriah is moving you against us, in order to give us up into the hand of the Chaldeans, to put us to death, and to remove us to Babylon.”
Men se Baruc, fis a Nérija a, k ap chofe ou kont nou pou livre nou nan men a Kaldeyen yo, pou yo menm mete nou a lanmò, oswa ekzile nou Babylone.”
4 And Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces, and all the people, have not listened to the voice of YHWH, to dwell in the land of Judah;
Pou sa, Jochanan, fis a Karéach la ak tout chèf lame yo, ak tout pèp la, pa t obeyi vwa SENYÈ a pou rete nan peyi Juda a.
5 and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces, take all the remnant of Judah who have turned from all the nations to where they were driven to sojourn in the land of Judah,
Men Jochanan, fis a Karéach la, ak tout chèf lame yo te pran tout retay a Juda yo, ki te retounen soti nan tout nasyon kote yo te konn chase yo rive, pou yo ta ka rete nan peyi Juda a—
6 the men, and the women, and the infant, and the daughters of the king, and every person that Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, had left with Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch son of Neriah,
mesye yo, fanm yo, timoun yo, fi a wa yo, e chak moun ke Nebuzaradan, chèf a kò gad la te kite avèk Guedalia, fis a Achikam nan ak granpapa a Schaphan, ansanm ak Jérémie, pwofèt la e Baruc, fis a Nérija a.
7 and they enter the land of Egypt, for they have not listened to the voice of YHWH, and they come as far as Tahpanhes.
Epi yo te antre nan peyi Égypte la paske yo pa t obeyi a vwa SENYÈ e yo te rive jis Tachpnaès.
8 And there is a word of YHWH to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,
Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote Jérémie nan Tachpanès. Li te di:
9 “Take great stones in your hand, and you have hidden them in the clay in the brick-kiln, that [is] at the opening of the house of Pharaoh in Tahpanhes, before the eyes of the men of Judah,
“Pran kèk nan gwo wòch nan men ou, e sere yo nan mòtye nan pave brik ki nan antre palè Farawon ki nan Tachpanès la, devan zye a kèk nan Jwif yo.
10 and you have said to them, Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Behold, I am sending, and I have taken Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and I have set his throne above these stones that I have hid, and he has stretched out his pavilion over them,
Epi di yo: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la: “Gade byen, Mwen va voye chache Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan sèvitè Mwen an, e Mwen va plase twòn li byen dirèk anwo wòch sila ke m te kache yo; epi li va ouvri gwo abri wayàl pa l anwo yo.
11 and he has come, and struck the land of Egypt—those who [are] for death to death, and those who [are] for captivity to captivity, and those who [are] for the sword to the sword.
Anplis, li va vin frape peyi Égypte la. Sila ki te fèt pou mouri va mouri; sila pou prizon yo, va vin anprizone, e sila ki pou nepe yo, va jwenn nepe.
12 And I have kindled a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and it has burned them, and he has taken them captive, and covered himself with the land of Egypt, as the shepherd covers himself with his garment, and he has gone forth there in peace;
Epi Mwen va mete dife sou tanp dye Égypte yo, li va brile yo e soti avèk yo kon prizonye. Li va vlope li menm ak peyi Égypte kon yon bèje vlope kò l ak vètman li, e li va sòti la, ansekirite.
13 and he has broken the standing pillars of the house of the sun, that [is] in the land of Egypt, and he burns the houses of the gods of Egypt with fire.”
Anplis, li va kraze nèt imaj an wòch Beth-Schémech yo, ki nan peyi Égypte la, epi tanp dye a Égypte yo, li va brile yo ak dife.”’”
