< Jeremiah 14 >
1 Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah on [the] matters of the droughts.
Sa se pawòl SENYÈ a a Jérémie konsènan gwo sechrès la:
2 It is in mourning Judah and gates its they are languishing they are in mourning to the earth and [the] outcry of Jerusalem it has gone up.
Juda kriye ak doulè e pòtay li yo vin abandone. Yo chita atè pou fè dèy e kri Jérusalem vin monte.
3 And noble [ones] their they have sent (servants their *Q(K)*) for water they have come to [the] cisterns not they have found water they have returned vessels their empty they are ashamed and they are humiliated and they have covered head their.
Prens pa yo te voye sèvitè yo chache dlo. Yo rive nan sitèn yo, men nanpwen dlo. Yo te retounen ak veso yo vid. Yo te vin wont, imilye e yo te kouvri tèt yo.
4 For sake of the ground [which] it is cracked for not it has come rain in the land they are ashamed farmers they have covered head their.
Akoz tè sèch la vin fann, akoz pa t gen lapli sou peyi a; kiltivatè yo te vin wont. Yo te kouvri tèt yo.
5 For also a doe in the field it has given birth and it has abandoned for not it is grass.
Wi, menm femèl sèf nan chan an fè pitit pou kite yo. Nanpwen zèb.
6 And wild donkeys they have stood on [the] bare heights they have panted for breath like jackals they have failed eyes their for there not [is] vegetation.
Bourik mawon yo kanpe sou kolin sèch yo. Y ap rale soufle fò tankou chen mawon. Zye yo vin febli, paske nanpwen anyen ki vèt.
7 Though iniquities our they have testified against us O Yahweh act for [the] sake of name your for they are many apostasies our to you we have sinned.
Malgre inikite nou yo temwaye kont nou, O SENYÈ, aji pou koz a non Ou! Rebelyon nou anpil. Nou te peche kontre Ou.
8 O hope of Israel deliverer its in a time of distress why? are you like a sojourner in the land and like a traveler [who] he has turned aside to spend [the] night.
O Espwa Israël la, Sovè li nan tan gwo twoub la, poukisa Ou tankou yon etranje nan peyi a? Oswa yon vwayajè ki te monte tant li lannwit?
9 Why? are you like a person astounded like a warrior [who] not he is able to save and you [are] in midst our O Yahweh and name your on us it is called may not you abandon us.
Poukisa Ou tankou yon nonm twouble, tankou yon nonm pwisan ki pa kapab bay sekou? Malgre sa, Ou nan mitan nou, O SENYÈ e nou vin rele pa non Ou; pa abandone nou!
10 Thus he says Yahweh of the people this thus they have loved to wander feet their not they have restrained and Yahweh not he has accepted them now he will remember iniquity their so he may punish sins their.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a a pèp sa a: “Malgre yo tèlman renmen egare; yo pa t kenbe pye yo nan bon kontwòl. Akoz sa, SENYÈ a pa aksepte yo. Koulye a, li sonje inikite yo. Li fè yo rand kont pou peche yo.”
11 And he said Yahweh to me may not you pray for the people this for good.
Pou sa, SENYÈ a te di m: “Pa fè lapriyè nan favè a pèp sa a.
12 For they will fast not I [will be] listening to cry of entreaty their even if they will offer up a burnt offering and a grain offering not I [will be] accepting them for by the sword and by famine and by pestilence I [will be] bringing to an end them.
Lè yo fè jèn, Mwen p ap koute kri yo; epi lè yo ofri ofrann brile ak ofrann sereyal, Mwen p ap aksepte yo. Pito Mwen va fè yo disparèt ak nepe, ak gwo grangou, bèt ak maladi k ap ravaje chan yo.”
13 And I said alas! - O Lord Yahweh here! the prophets [are] saying to them not you will see sword and famine not it will happen to you for peace of reliability I will give to you in the place this.
Men “A, Senyè, BONDYE a!” Mwen te di: “Gade, pwofèt yo ap di yo: ‘Ou p ap wè nepe, ni gwo grangou, men se lapè k ap rete nèt nan plas sa a.’”
14 And he said Yahweh to me falsehood the prophets [are] prophesying in name my not I sent them and not I appointed them and not I spoke to them a vision of falsehood and divination (and an idol *Q(K)*) (and [the] deceitfulness of *Q(k)*) own heart their they [are] prophesying to you.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te di Mwen: “Pwofèt yo ap pwofetize sa ki fo nan non Mwen. Mwen pa t voye yo, ni kòmande yo, ni pale avèk yo. Y ap pwofetize yon vizyon ki fo, prediksyon, sa ki san enpòtans, ak manti k ap sòti nan pwòp panse pa yo.
15 Therefore thus he says Yahweh on the prophets who are prophesying in name my and I not I sent them and they [are] saying sword and famine not it will happen in the land this by the sword and by famine they will meet their end the prophets those.
Pou sa, pale SENYÈ a, selon pwofèt ki pwofetize nan non Mwen, malgre se pa Mwen ki te voye yo—men yo kontinye ap di: ‘P ap gen nepe ni gwo grangou nan peyi sa a’, ak nepe e gwo grangou, pwofèt sa yo ap rankontre fen yo!
16 And the people whom they [are] prophesying to them they will be thrown out in [the] streets of Jerusalem because of - the famine and the sword and not a burier [will belong] to them them wives their and sons their and daughters their and I will pour out on them wickedness their.
Pèp la tou, a sila yo bay pwofesi sa a ap jete deyò nan lari Jérusalem akoz gwo grangou ak nepe. P ap menm gen moun ki pou antere yo—ni yo menm, ni madanm yo, ni fis yo ni fi yo—paske Mwen va vide pwòp mechanste pa yo sou yo.
17 And you will speak to them the word this let them run down eyes my tear[s] night and by day and may not they cease for a breaking great she has been broken [the] virgin of [the] daughter of people my a wound made sick very.
“Ou va di yo pawòl sa a: ‘Kite zye m koule ak dlo lannwit kon lajounen e pa kite dlo yo sispann; Paske fi vyèj a pèp mwen an te kraze ak yon gran brèch, ak yon blesi byen grav.
18 If I went out the field and there! [those] slain of a sword and if I went the city and there! diseases of famine for both prophet as well as priest they have gone about to a land and not they know.
Si mwen ale andeyò peyi a, gade byen, tout sila ki mouri ak nepe yo! Oswa si mwen antre nan vil la, gade byen, maladi ak gwo grangou! Paske pwofèt la, ak prèt la tou te fè ale vini nan yon peyi ke yo pa t menm konnen.’”
19 ¿ Really have you rejected Judah or? Zion does it abhor self your why? have you struck us and not [belongs] to us healing we waited eagerly for peace and there not [was] good and for a time of healing and there! terror.
Èske Ou te rejte Juda nèt? Oswa èske Ou te rayi Sion? Poukisa Ou te frape nou jiskaske nou vin pa ka geri? Nou t ap tann lapè, men anyen ki bon pa t vini; pou yon tan pou nou ta ka geri, men gade byen, se gwo laperèz!
20 We know O Yahweh wickedness our [the] iniquity of ancestors our for we have sinned to you.
Nou konnen mechanste nou yo, O SENYÈ, inikite a papa zansèt nou yo, paske nou te peche kont Ou.
21 May not you spurn for [the] sake of name your may not you treat with contempt [the] throne of glory your remember may not you break covenant your with us.
Pa meprize nou, pou koz a pwòp non Ou: pa kite twòn a glwa ou a dezonore. Sonje e pa kase akò Ou avèk nou.
22 ¿ [are] there Among [the] vanities of the nations [those who] send rain and or? the heavens do they give copious showers ¿ not you [is] it O Yahweh God our so we may wait eagerly for you for you you have done all these [things].
Èske genyen pami zidòl a nasyon yo ki konn bay lapli? Oswa èske syèl yo ka fè lapli pou kont yo? Èske se pa Ou menm, O SENYÈ, Bondye nou an? Akoz sa, nou mete espwa nan Ou, paske se Ou ki te fè tout bagay sa yo.
