< Jeremiah 43 >
1 And it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto all the people all the words of Yahweh their God, with which Yahweh their God had sent him unto them, —even 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 then spake Azariah son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the proud men, —saying unto Jeremiah—Falsely, art thou speaking, Yahweh our God hath not sent thee to say, Ye shall 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 but Baruch son of Neriah, is goading thee on against us, —that he may deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, to put us to death, or take us away captive 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 So Johanan son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces and all the people, hearkened not, unto the voice of Yahweh, —by remaining 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 but Johanan son of Kareah and all the captains of the forces took all the remnant of Judah, who had returned, out of all the nations whither they had been 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 both the men and the women and the children, and the daughters of the king, and every soul that Nebuzaradan chief of the royal 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 entered the land of Egypt, for they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, —yea entered 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 Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jeremiah, in Tahpanhes, saying:
Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote Jérémie nan Tachpanès. Li te di:
9 Take in thy hand great stones and hide them in the mortar that is in the brickyard which is at the entrance 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 Then shalt thou say unto them—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel—Behold me! sending and fetching Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, my servant, and I will set his throne over these stones which I have hid, —and he shall spread his canopy 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 when he entereth, then will he smite the land of Egypt and deliver Him who is for death to death and Him who is for captivity to captivity, and Him who is 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 So will I kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and he shall burn them and carry them away Captive, —and shall wrap the land of Egypt about him, just as a shepherd, wrappeth about, him his garment, and shall go forth from thence 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 shall break in pieces the pillars of Beth-shemesh, which is in the land of Egypt, —And the houses of the gods of Egypt, shall he burn 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.”’”
