< Jeremiah 36 >

1 It happened in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
Nan katriyèm ane Jojakim, fis a Josias la, wa Juda a, pawòl sa a te rive a Jérémie soti nan SENYÈ a. Li te di:
2 "Take a scroll, and write on it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke to you, from the days of Josiah, even to this day.
“Pran yon woulo e ekri sou li tout pawòl ke M te pale ou konsènan Israël, konsènan Juda, e konsènan tout nasyon yo, depi nan jou ke M te premyèman pale ak ou a, depi nan jou a Josias yo, jis pou rive nan jou sa a.
3 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do to them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin."
Petèt, lakay Juda va tande afè tout malè ke M gen lentansyon fè rive yo, jiskaske tout moun va detounen kite chemen mechan pa yo; epi konsa, Mwen kapab padone inikite ak peche yo.”
4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah, which he had spoken to him, on a scroll.
Konsa, Jérémie te rele Baruc, fis a Nérija a, e Baruc te ekri sou yon woulo, selon dikte Jérémie, tout pawòl ke SENYÈ a te pale a li yo.
5 Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, "I am shut up; I can't go into the house of Jehovah:
Jérémie te kòmande Baruc. Li te di: “Mwen limite. Mwen p ap ka antre lakay SENYÈ a.
6 therefore you go, and read from the scroll, which you have written from my mouth, the words of Jehovah in the ears of the people in Jehovah's house on the fast day; and also you shall read them in the ears of all Judah who come out of their cities.
Akoz sa, ou va ale li depi nan woulo ke ou te ekri selon dikte mwen an, pawòl a SENYÈ a. Li l a pèp lakay SENYÈ a nan yon jou jèn. Epi anplis, ou va li yo a tout pèp Juda a lè yo antre sòti nan vil yo.
7 It may be they will present their petition before Jehovah, and will return everyone from his evil way; for great is the anger and the wrath that Jehovah has pronounced against this people."
Petèt siplikasyon yo va vini devan SENYÈ a, e tout moun va detounen kite chemen mechan yo. Paske kòlè ak gwo mekontantman SENYÈ a pwononse kont pèp sa a, byen gran.”
8 Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading from the scroll the words of Jehovah in Jehovah's house.
Baruc, fis a Nérija a, te fè selon tout sa ke Jérémie, pwofèt la, te kòmande li yo. Li te li nan woulo pawòl a SENYÈ a, lakay SENYÈ a.
9 Now it happened in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, that all the people in Jerusalem, and all the people who came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem, proclaimed a fast before Jehovah.
Alò, nan senkyèm ane Jojakim lan, fis a Josias, wa a Juda a, nan nevyèm mwa a, tout pèp Jérusalem nan ak tout moun ki te antre soti nan vil Jérusalem yo, te pwoklame yon jèn devan SENYÈ a.
10 Then Baruch read from the scroll the words of Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah, in the room of Gemariah the son of Shaphan, the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the New Gate of Jehovah's house, in the ears of all the people.
Epi Baruc te li nan woulo pawòl a Jérémie yo lakay SENYÈ a nan chanm a Guemaria, fis Schaphan an, grefye nan tribinal anwo a, nan antre Pòtay Nèf la lakay SENYÈ a, devan tout pèp la.
11 When Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard from the scroll all the words of Jehovah,
Alò, lè Michée, fis a Guemaria, fis a Schaphan an, te tande tout pawòl a SENYÈ a soti nan liv la,
12 he went down into the king's house, into the scribe's room: and look, all the officials were sitting there, Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the officials.
Li te desann lakay wa a, nan chanm grefye a. Epi gade byen, tout ofisye yo te chita la—-Élischama, grefye a, Delaja, fis a Schemaeja a, Elnathan, fis a Acbor a, Guemaria, fis a Schaphan an e Sédécias, fis a Hanania a, ak tout lòt chèf yo.
13 Then Micaiah declared to them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the scroll in the hearing of the people.
Michée te deklare a yo menm tout pawòl ke li te tande lè Baruc te li soti nan liv a pèp la.
14 Therefore all the officials sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, "Take in your hand the scroll in which you have read in the ears of the people, and come." So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand, and came to them.
Epi tout ofisye yo te voye Jehudi, fis a Nethania, fis a Schélémia, fis a Cuschi a, kote Baruc e te di: “Pran nan men ou woulo ke ou te li a pèp la e vini.” Konsa Baruc, fis a Nethania, te pran woulo a nan men l e te ale kote yo.
15 They said to him, "Sit down now, and read it in our ears." So Baruch read it in their ears.
Yo te di li: “Chita la, souple e li li bannou.” Konsa, Baruc te li li bay yo.
16 Now it happened, when they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said to Baruch, "We will surely tell the king of all these words."
Lè yo te tande tout pawòl yo; ak gwo perèz, yo te vire youn vè lòt e yo te di a Baruc: “Anverite, nou va bay rapò tout pawòl sa yo bay wa a.”
17 They asked Baruch, saying, "Tell us now, How did you write all these words at his mouth?"
Epi yo te mande Baruc e te di: “Di nou, souple, kijan ou te ekri tout pawòl sa yo? Èske se te selon dikte pa li?”
18 Then Baruch answered them, "He pronounced all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink on the scroll."
Epi Baruc te di yo: “Li te dikte tout pawòl sa yo e mwen te ekri yo ak lank nan liv la.”
19 Then the officials said to Baruch, "Go, hide, you and Jeremiah; and let no man know where you are."
Alò, ofisye yo te di a Baruc: “Ale, kache tèt ou, ou menm ak Jérémie e pa kite pèsòn konnen kote nou ye.”
20 They went in to the king into the court; but they had put the scroll in the room of Elishama the scribe; and they told all the words in the ears of the king.
Pou sa, yo te ale kote wa a nan lakou a, men yo te depoze woulo a nan chanm Élischama, grefye a, e yo te fè rapò tout pawòl sa yo a wa a.
21 So the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll; and he took it out of the room of Elishama the scribe. Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the officials who stood beside the king.
Epi wa a te voye Jehudi chache woulo a, e li te retire li nan chanm Élischama, grefye a. Epi Jehudi te li li bay wa a ansanm ak tout ofisye ki te kanpe akote wa a.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter house in the ninth month: and there was a fire in the brazier burning before him.
Alò, wa a te chita nan kay sezon livè a, nan nevyèm mwa a, ak dife ki t ap brile nan recho la devan l.
23 It happened, when Jehudi had read three or four columns, that the king cut it with a knife, and cast it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier.
Lè Jehudi te fin li twa oswa kat pòsyon, wa a te koupe li ak yon kouto e te jete li nan dife ki te nan recho a, jiskaske woulo a te fin manje nèt nan dife ki te nan recho a.
24 They were not afraid, nor tore their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants who heard all these words.
Malgre sa, wa a ak tout sèvitè ki te tande pawòl sila yo pa t pè, ni yo pa t chire rad yo.
25 Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the scroll; but he would not hear them.
Menmsi Elnathan, Delaja ak Guemaria te sipliye wa a pou l pa brile woulo a, li te refize koute yo.
26 The king commanded Jerahmeel the king's son, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah hid them.
Epi wa a te kòmande Jerachmeel, fis a wa a, Seraja, fis Azriel e Schélémia, fis a Abdeel, pou sezi Baruc, grefye a ak Jérémie, pwofèt la, men SENYÈ a te kache yo.
27 Then the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the scroll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote Jérémie lè wa a te fin brile woulo pawòl ke Baruc te ekri selon dikte Jérémie a e te di:
28 "Take again another scroll, and write on it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah has burned.
“Pran ankò yon lòt woulo e ekri sou li tout menm pawòl ki te ekri sou premye woulo ke Jojakim, wa Juda a, te brile a.
29 Concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, 'Thus says Jehovah: "You have burned this scroll, saying, 'Why have you written in it, saying, "The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from there man and animal?"'"
Epi konsènan Jojakim, wa Juda a, ou va di: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Ou te brile woulo sa a e ou te di: ‘Poukisa ou te ekri sou li ke wa Babylone nan va, anverite, vin detwi peyi sa a e va fè ni lòm ni bèt vin disparèt ladann?’”’
30 Therefore thus says Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: "He shall have none to sit on the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
‘Akoz sa’, pale SENYÈ a konsènan Jojakim wa Juda a: “Li p ap gen okenn moun ki pou chita sou twòn David la, e kadav li va jete deyò nan chalè lajounen ak gwo fredi lannwit.
31 I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring on them, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and on the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they did not listen."'"
Anplis, Mwen va pini li ak desandan li yo ak sèvitè pou inikite yo, e Mwen va mennen sou yo ak sila k ap viv Jérusalem yo, ak mesye Juda yo, tout malè ke M te deklare a yo menm yo—men yo pa t koute.”’”
32 Then Jeremiah took another scroll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote on it at the instruction of Jeremiah all the words of the scroll which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and there were added besides to them many like words.
Epi Jérémie te pran yon lòt woulo. Li te bay li a Baruc, fis a Nérija a, grefye a, epi li te ekri sou li selon dikte a Jérémie, tout pawòl a liv ke Jojakim, wa Juda a te brile nan dife a; epi anpil pawòl parèy a yo te ajoute nan yo.
