Jeremiah 6
1 Sones of Beniamyn, be ye coumfortid in the myddil of Jerusalem, and make ye noise with a clarioun in Thecua, and reise ye a baner on Bethecarem; for whi yuel and greet sorewe is seyn fro the north.
“Pran flit pou sove, O fis a Benjamin yo! Sòti nan mitan Jérusalem! Soufle yon twonpèt Tekoa e leve sinyal la sou Beth-Hakkérem, paske malè ap veye nou soti nan nò, yon gwo destriksyon.
2 Y haue licned the douytir of Sion to a fair womman and delicat.
Sila ki bèl e delika a, fi a Sion an, Mwen va koupe retire l nèt.
3 Scheepherdis and her flockis schulen come to it; thei han piyt tentis in it in cumpas; ech man schal feede hem, that ben vndur his hond.
Bèje yo ak bann mouton pa yo va vin kote li. Yo va monte tant yo antoure li, e yo chak va fè pak bèt yo nan plas yo.
4 Halewe ye batel on it. Rise ye togidire, and stie we in myddai. Wo to vs, for the dai is bowid doun, for shadewis ben maad lengere in the euentid.
“Prepare lagè kont li! Leve! Annou atake a midi. Malè a nou menm, paske joune a ap vin bese, paske lonbraj lannwit yo ap vin pi long!
5 Rise ye, and stie we in the niyt, and distry we the housis therof.
Leve e annou atake pandan nwit lan pou detwi palè li yo!”
6 For the Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Kitte ye doun the tre therof, and schede ye erthe aboute Jerusalem; this is the citee of visitacioun; al fals caleng is in the myddis therof.
Paske konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo; “Koupe pyebwa li yo, e fè monte yon ran syèj kont Jérusalem. Se vil ki dwe pini an, vil ki plen opresyon an.
7 As a cisterne makith his water coold, so it made his malice coold; wickidnesse and distriyng schal euer be herd ther ynne bifore me, sikenesse and wounde.
Kon yon pwi kenbe dlo li fre, se konsa li rafrechi mechanste li. Vyolans ak destriksyon vin tande nan li. Maladi ak blesi devan M tout tan.
8 Jerusalem, be thou tauyt, lest perauenture my soule go awei fro thee; lest perauenture Y sette thee forsakun, a loond vnhabitable.
Se pou ou vin avèti, O Jérusalem, pou M pa vin about ak ou, pou vin fè ou dezole, yon peyi ki san moun.”
9 The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Thei schulen gadere til to a racyn, thei schulen gadere the remenauntis of Israel as in a vyner; turne thin hond, as a gaderer of grapis to the bascat.
Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: “Yo va fè yon rekòlt nèt, tankou chan rezen retay Israël la. Repase men ou ankò sou branch yo konsi se dènye ranmase rezen yo.”
10 To whom schal Y speke, and to whom schal Y seie witnessing, that he here? Lo! the eeris of hem ben vncircumcidid, and thei moun not here; lo! the word of the Lord is maad to hem in to dispit, and thei schulen not resseiue it.
Se a kilès pou m ta pale e bay avètisman pou yo ka tande? Gade byen, zòrèy yo bouche e yo p ap ka koute. Gade byen, pawòl SENYÈ a vin sèvi kon repwòch pou yo. Yo pa twouve okenn plezi ladann.
11 Therfor Y am ful of the strong veniaunce of the Lord, and Y trauelide suffrynge. Schede thou out on a litil child with outforth, and on the counsel of yonge men togidere; for a man with his wijf schal be takun, and an eeld man with him that is ful of daies.
Men mwen plen ak kòlè SENYÈ a. Mwen vin bouke ak kenbe l anndan. “Vide li sou timoun lari yo ak sou jenn gason k ap rasanble; paske ni mari, ni madanm, yo va vin pran, menm sa ki nan laj ak granmoun.
12 And the housis of hem, the feeldis and wyues togidere, schulen go to othere men; for Y schal stretche forth myn hond on the dwelleris of the lond, seith the Lord.
Lakay pa yo va bay a lòt moun, chan yo ak madanm yo ansanm; paske M ap lonje men M kont tout sila ki rete nan peyi yo,” deklare SENYÈ a.
13 For fro the lesse `til to the grettere, alle studien to auerise; and alle doon gile, fro the profete `til to the preest.
Paske soti nan pi piti pami yo jis rive nan pi gran yo; yo tout se voras dèyè richès. Soti nan pwofèt la, jis rive nan prèt la. Tout se malonèt.
14 And thei heeliden the sorewe of the douyter of my puple with yuel fame, seiynge, Pees, pees, and no pees was.
Yo te geri gwo blese pèp Mwen an ak pansman lejè. Y ap di: “Lapè, lapè”, men nanpwen lapè.
15 Thei ben schent, that diden abhomynacioun; yhe, rathere thei weren not schent bi confusioun, and thei kouden not be aschamed. Wherfor thei schulen falle doun among hem that schulen falle doun; thei schulen falle doun in the tyme of her visitacioun, seith the Lord.
Èske yo te vin wont akoz bagay abominab yo te fè? Yo pa t wont menm. Yo pa t menm konnen kijan pou yo ta vin wont. Akoz sa, yo va tonbe pami sila ki tonbe yo. Nan lè ke Mwen fè vizit ak yo, yo va vin jete anba”, di SENYÈ a.
16 The Lord seith these thingis, Stonde ye on weies, and se ye, and axe ye of elde pathis, which is the good weie; and go ye ther ynne, and ye schulen fynde refreischyng to youre soulis. And thei seiden, We schulen not go.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Kanpe akote chemen yo e gade. Mande pou ansyen wout yo, ‘Kote bon chemen an ye?’ Mache ladann l. Konsa, nou va jwenn repo pou nanm nou.” Men yo te di: ‘Nou p ap mache ladann’.
17 And Y ordeynede aspieris on you, and Y seide, Here ye the vois of a trumpe. And thei seiden, We schulen not here.
Mwen te mete gadyen yo sou nou. Mwen te di: ‘Koute son a twonpèt la!’ Men yo te di: ‘Nou p ap koute.’
18 Therfor, hethene men, here ye, and, thou congregacioun, knowe, hou grete thingis Y schal do to hem.
Pou sa, tande, O nasyon yo e konnen, O asanble a, sa ki pami yo.
19 Thou erthe, here, lo! Y schal brynge yuels on this puple, the fruit of her thouytis; for thei herden not my wordis, and castiden awei my lawe.
Koute, O latè! Gade byen, Mwen ap mennen gwo dega sou pèp sa a; menm fwi a panse pa yo, akoz yo pa t koute pawòl Mwen yo, e selon lalwa Mwen an, yo te rejte li.
20 Wherto bryngen ye to me encense fro Saba, and a tre of spicerie smellynge swetli fro a fer lond? Youre brent sacrifices ben not acceptid, and youre slayn sacrifices plesiden not me.
Paske kisa sa sèvi, lansan an ki rive kote Mwen sòti Séba, ak kann dous soti nan yon peyi lwen? Ofrann brile nou yo pa fè M plezi.”
21 Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal yyue fallyngis in to this puple, and fadris and sones togidere, a neiybore and kynesman, schulen falle in hem, and schulen perische.
Pou sa, pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, Mwen ap poze blòk k ap fè pèp sa a bite. Yo va bite kont yo. Papa yo ak fis yo va bite ansanm. Vwazen ak zanmi li va peri.”
22 The Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! a puple cometh fro the lond of the north, and a greet folk schal rise togidere fro the endis of erthe.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, yon pèp ap sòti nan peyi nò, yon gwo nasyon va leve soti nan ekstremite latè byen lwen.
23 It schal take an arowe and scheld; it is cruel, and schal not haue merci; the vois therof schal sowne as the see, and thei maad redi as a man to batel schulen stie on horsis ayens thee, thou douyter of Sion.
Yo kenbe rèd ak banza ak lans. Yo mechan anpil e yo pa gen mizerikòd menm. Vwa pa yo fè raj tankou lanmè, e yo monte sou cheval yo, byen alinyen kon yon sèl moun pou batay kont ou, O fi Sion nan!”
24 We herden the fame therof, oure hondis ben `a clumsid; tribulacioun hath take vs, sorewis han take vs as a womman trauelinge of child.
Nou konn tande rapò sa a. Men nou yo vin lage nèt. Gwo doulè fin sezi nou tankou doulè a yon fanm k ap akouche.
25 Nyle ye go out to the feeldis, and go ye not in the weie, for the swerd of the enemye, drede in cumpas.
Pa antre nan chan an, ni pa mache sou wout la, paske nepe lènmi a ak gwo laperèz sou tout kote.
26 The douytir of my puple, be thou gird with heire, and be thou spreynt togidere with aische; make to thee mourenyng of oon aloone gendrid sone, a bitter weilyng, for whi a wastere schal come sodenli on you.
O fi a pèp mwen an, mete twal sak! Woule nan sann! Kriye fò konsi se pou sèl fis ke ou te fè a! Fè yon lamantasyon ki anmè pase tout lòt yo. Paske sibitman destriktè a va parèt sou nou.
27 I yaf thee a strong preuere in my puple, and thou schalt knowe, and preue the weie of hem.
“Mwen te fè ou eseyis la pou sonde metal pami pèp Mwen an, pou ou ka sonde e konnen chemen yo.
28 Alle these princis bowynge awei, goynge gilefuli, ben metal and irun; alle ben corrupt.
Yo tout fè rebèl ak tèt di. Y ap mache toupotou bay move rapò a lòt. Se bwonz ak fè yo ye; yo tout konwonpi.
29 The belu failide, leed is waastid in the fier, the wellere wellide in veyn; for the malices of hem ben not wastid.
Ponp fòj la soufle fò. Plon an manje nèt nan dife a. Anven, yo rafine toujou, men mechan yo pa janm vin separe.
30 Clepe ye hem repreuable siluer, for the Lord hath cast hem awei.
Moun va rele yo ajan rejte, akoz SENYÈ a te rejte yo.”
