Jeremiah 22
1 The Lord seith these thingis, Go thou doun in to the hous of the kyng of Juda, and thou schalt speke there this word, and schalt seie,
Seyè a pale ak Jeremi, li di l': -Desann ale kay wa peyi Jida a,
2 Thou kyng of Juda, that sittist on the seete of Dauid, here the word of the Lord, thou, and thi seruauntis, and thi puple, that entren bi these yatis.
pou ba l' mesaj sa a: Ou menm wa peyi Jida, ki chita sou fotèy David la, nou menm chèf yo ansanm ak tout pèp k'ap antre soti nan pòtay lavil la, koute sa Seyè a di nou:
3 The Lord seith these thingis, Do ye doom, and riytfulnesse, and delyuere ye hym that is oppressid bi violence fro the hond of the fals chalenger; and nyle ye make sori, nether oppresse ye wickidli a comelyng, and a fadirles child, and a widewe, and schede ye not out innocent blood in this place.
Mwen menm Seyè a, m'ap mande nou pou nou fè sa ki dwat, pou nou rann jistis san patipri. Se pou nou wete moun y'ap peze yo anba men moun k'ap peze yo a. Pa malmennen moun lòt nasyon ki lakay nou yo, timoun ki san papa yo ak vèv yo. Pa pwofite sou yo. Pa touye moun inonsan isit la.
4 For if ye doynge don this word, kyngis of the kyn of Dauid sittynge on his trone schulen entre bi the yatis of this hous, and schulen stie on charis and horsis, thei, and the seruauntis, and the puple of hem.
Si tout bon vre nou fè jan m' mande nou fè la a, n'a toujou gen yonn nan moun fanmi David yo pou wa. Li menm ansanm ak chèf li yo ak tout pèp la va toujou antre soti nan pòtay palè a sou cha ak sou chwal yo.
5 That if ye heren not these wordis, Y swoore in my silf, seith the Lord, that this hous schal be in to wildirnesse.
Men, si nou pa koute m', m'ap fè nou sèman: palè sa a gen pou kraze. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
6 For the Lord seith these thingis on the hous of the kyng of Juda, Galaad, thou art to me the heed of the Liban; credence be not youun to me, if Y sette not thee a wildirnesse, citees vnhabitable.
Men sa Seyè a di sou kay wa peyi Jida a: -Pou mwen, palè a bèl tankou peyi Galarad, tankou tèt mòn peyi Liban yo. Men, mwen p'ap pè fè l' tounen yon dezè, yon lavil kote moun pa rete.
7 And Y schal halewe on thee a man sleynge, and hise armuris; and thei schulen kitte doun thi chosun cedris, and schulen caste doun in to fier.
M'ap chwazi moun ak rach pou m' voye detwi nou. Yo pral koupe tout bèl bwa sèd nou yo, y'ap voye yo jete nan dife.
8 And many folkis schulen passe bi this citee, and ech man schal seie to his neiybore, Whi dide the Lord thus to this greet citee?
Apre sa, anpil moun lòt nasyon va pase bò lavil la. Yonn va mande lòt: Poukisa Seyè a fè gwo lavil sa a sa?
9 And thei schulen answere, For thei forsoken the couenaunt of her Lord God, and worschipiden alien goddis, and serueden hem.
Lèfini y'a reponn: Se paske yo pa t' kenbe kontra Seyè Bondye yo a te siyen ak yo a. Y' al adore lòt bondye yo, yo fè sèvis pou yo.
10 Nyle ye biwepe hym that is deed, nether weile ye on hym bi wepyng; biweile ye hym that goith out, for he schal no more turne ayen, nether he schal se the lond of his birthe.
Nou menm moun Jida, nou pa bezwen kriye pou wa Jozyas ki mouri a. Nou pa bezwen pran lapenn pou li. Kriye pito pou Chaloum, sa yo depòte a. Li menm, li p'ap janm tounen lakay li, li p'ap janm wè peyi kote l' te fèt la ankò.
11 For the Lord seith these thingis to Sellum, the sone of Josie, the kyng of Juda, that regnede for Josye, his fadir, He that yede out of this place, schal no more turne ayen hidur;
Paske men mesaj Seyè a bay sou Chaloum, pitit Jozyas, ki te vin wa peyi Jida nan plas papa l': Li pati kite isit la, li p'ap janm tounen.
12 but in the place to which Y translatide him, there he schal die, and he schal no more se this lond.
Paske kote yo depòte l' la, se la li pral mouri. Li p'ap janm wè peyi a ankò.
13 Wo to him that bildith his hous in vnriytfulnesse, and his soleris not in doom; he schal oppresse his freend in veyn, and he schal not yelde his hire to hym.
Madichon pou moun k'ap bati gwo kay avèk lajan lenjistis, k'ap mete chanmòt sou kay yo ak lajan yo fè nan move kondisyon. Y'ap fè jwif parèy yo travay gratis pou yo, yo pa peye yo lajan yo.
14 Which seith, Y schal bilde to me a large hous, and wide soleris; which openeth wyndows to hym silf, and makith couplis of cedre, and peyntith with reed colour.
Madichon pou moun k'ap plede di: mwen pral bati yon gwo kay ak chanm byen laj nan chanmòt yo. Yo mete fennèt nan kay yo, yo palisade yo ak bwa sèd, yo pentire yo tou wouj.
15 Whether thou schalt regne, for thou comparisonest thee to a cedre? whether thi fadir eet not, and drank, and dide doom and riytfulnesse thanne, whanne it was wel to hym?
Eske w'ap yon pi bon wa paske ou bati kay ou ak bwa sèd pou li pi bèl pase pa lòt moun? Papa ou te manje, li te bwè tankou tout moun. Men, li te fè sa ki dwat, li pa t' fè lenjistis. Tout zafè l' te mache byen.
16 He demyde the cause of a pore man, and nedi, in to his good; whether not therfor for he knew me? seith the Lord.
Li te defann kòz pòv malere yo. Tout bagay te mache byen pou li. Se sa ki rele konnen Seyè a.
17 Forsothe thin iyen and herte ben to aueryce, and to schede innocent blood, and to fals caleng, and to the perfourmyng of yuel werk.
Men ou menm, yon sèl bagay ou wè, yon sèl bagay ou konnen, se enterè pa ou ase. Se konsa w'ap touye inonsan. W'ap maltrete pèp la, w'ap maspinen l'. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
18 Therfor the Lord seith these thingis to Joachym, the sone of Josie, the kyng of Juda, Thei schulen not biweile hym, Wo brother! and wo sistir! thei schulen not sowne togidere to hym, Wo lord! and wo noble man!
Se konsa, men mesaj Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a bay sou Jojakim, pitit Jozyas, wa peyi Jida a: -Lè l'a mouri, p'ap gen pesonn pou kenbe rèl la ak moun pa l' yo. P'ap gen pesonn pou kriye pou mèt yo, wa yo.
19 He schal be biried with the biriyng of an asse, he schal be rotun, and cast forth without the yatis of Jerusalem.
Y'ap antere l' tankou chen. Y'ap trennen kadav li, y'ap voye l' jete byen lwen lòt bò pòtay lavil Jerizalèm.
20 Stie thou on the Liban, and cry thou, and yyue thi vois in Basan, and cry to hem that passen forth, for alle thi louyeris ben al to-brokun.
Nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm, ale nan peyi Liban, rele byen fò! Ale nan peyi Bazan, rele! Rete sou mòn Moab yo, rele! Paske yo kraze tout asosye nou yo.
21 Y spak to thee in thi plentee, and thou seidist, Y schal not here; this is thi weie fro thi yongthe, for thou herdist not my vois.
Mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen te pale nou lè zafè nou t'ap mache byen. Men, nou te derefize koute m'. Se sa n'ap fè depi tout tan. Nou pa janm vle koute sa m'ap di nou.
22 Wynd schal feede alle thi scheepherdis, and thi louyeris schulen go in to caitifte;
Van pral bwote tout chèf nou yo ale. Y'ap depòte tout moun lòt nasyon ki asosye nou yo. Lè sa a, nou pral bese tèt nou, nou pral wont pou tout mechanste nou te konn fè yo.
23 and thanne thou that sittist in the Liban, and makist nest in cedris, schalt be schent, and be aschamed of al thi malice. Hou weilidist thou, whanne sorewis weren comun to thee, as the sorew of a womman trauelynge of child?
Nou menm ki rete nan gwo kay nou bati ak sèd ki soti peyi Liban, ala plenn nou pral plenn lè malè va tonbe sou nou! Nou pral plenn tankou fanm ki gen tranche.
24 I lyue, seith the Lord, for thouy Jeconye, the sone of Joachym, kyng of Juda, were a ring in my riyt hond, fro thennus Y schal drawe awei hym.
Men sa Seyè a voye di Jekonya, pitit Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a: -Mwen fè sèman sou vi mwen, menm si ou te bag letanp ki nan men dwat mwen an, m'ap rache ou nan dwèt mwen.
25 And Y schal yyue thee in the hond of hem that seken thi lijf, and in the hond of hem whos face thou dredist, and in the hond of Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and in the hond of Caldeis.
M'ap lage ou nan men moun ki soti pou touye ou yo, nan men moun ou pè yo. M'ap lage ou nan men Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, nan men moun Kalde yo.
26 And Y schal sende thee, and thi moder that gendride thee, in to an alien lond, in which ye weren not borun, and there ye schulen die;
Mwen pral voye ni ou menm, ni manman ou ki fè ou la, nan peyi etranje. Nou pral nan yon peyi kote nou pa t' fèt. Se la ni ou menm ni li menm pral mouri.
27 and thei schulen not turne ayen in to the lond, to which thei reisen her soule, that thei turne ayen thidur.
N'ap anvi tounen vin wè peyi sa a. Men, nou p'ap janm ka tounen.
28 Whether this man Jeconye is an erthene vessel, and al to-brokun? whether a vessel withouten al likyng? Whi ben he and his seed cast awei, and cast forth in to a lond which thei knewen not?
Moun yo rele Jekonya a, èske li tounen yon kannari kraze y'ap voye jete, yon kannari pesonn pa bezwen? Poukisa yo depòte ni li ni pitit li yo nan peyi yo pa t' janm konnen?
29 Erthe, erthe, erthe, here thou the word of the Lord.
O latè, latè, latè! Koute sa Seyè a di:
30 The Lord seith these thingis, Write thou this man bareyn, a man that schal not haue prosperite in hise daies; for of his seed schal be no man, that schal sitte on the seete of Dauid, and haue powere ferthere in Juda.
Nonm sa a kondannen pou l' pèdi tout pitit li yo, pou l' pa janm wè zafè l' mache. P'ap janm gen yonn nan pitit li yo ki pou rive chita sou fotèy wa David la, ki pou rive chèf nan peyi Jida a ankò.
