Jeremi 28

1 Nan menm lanne a, nan katriyèm lanne rèy Sedesyas, wa peyi Jida a, nan senkyèm mwa a, pwofèt Ananya, pitit Azou, moun lavil Gabawon, vin pale avè m' nan tanp Seyè a. Devan tout prèt yo ansanm ak pèp la, li di mwen:

And it came to pass in the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah, the son of Azur the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

2 -Men mesaj Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, bay: Mwen kraze pouvwa wa Babilòn lan.

Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: “I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Nan dezan, jou pou jou, m'ap pote tout bagay ki te nan tanp Seyè a tounen nan plas yo. Wi, tou sa wa Nèbikadneza te pran nan tanp lan pou l' te pote ale lavil Babilòn, m'ap fè yo tounen nan plas yo.

Within two full years will I bring again to this place all the vessels of the house of Jehovah, which Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon took from this place, and carried to Babylon.

4 M'ap fè Jekonya, pitit Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a, ansanm ak tout moun peyi Jida yo te depòte lavil Babilòn yo tounen isit. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa. Wi, mwen pral kraze pouvwa wa Babilòn ki t'ap peze nou an.

And Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the captives of Judah that went to Babylon, will I bring again to this place, saith Jehovah; for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”

5 Lè sa a, devan tout prèt yo ansanm ak foul moun ki te nan kay Seyè a, pwofèt Jeremi reponn pwofèt Ananya.

Then Jeremiah the prophet spake to Hananiah the prophet, in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of Jehovah.

6 Li di konsa: -Dakò! Se pou Seyè a fè sa vre! Se pou li fè sa ou di a rive vre, pou l' fè tout bagay ki te nan Tanp Seyè a ansanm ak moun yo te depòte yo tounen soti lavil Babilòn.

And Jeremiah the prophet said, Amen! So may Jehovah do! May Jehovah fulfill thy words which thou hast prophesied, and bring back the vessels of the house of Jehovah, and all the captives from Babylon to this place!

7 Tansèlman, koute byen sa m'ap di ou, ou menm ansanm ak pèp la:

Nevertheless, hear now this word, which I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people.

8 Pwofèt ki te vini anvan m' yo ak anvan ou tou te fè konnen lagè, grangou ak move maladi pral tonbe sou anpil gwo peyi, sou anpil gran wa ak tout pèp yo.

The prophets who have been before me and before thee from ancient times have also prophesied against many nations, and against great kingdoms, of war, of calamity, and of pestilence.

9 Men, lè yon pwofèt di tout bagay pral mache byen, se lè sa li di ki gen pou rive a rive vre y'a rekonèt se Seyè a ki te voye l'.

The prophet who prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall he be known as a prophet whom Jehovah hath truly sent.

10 Lè sa a, pwofèt Ananya pran jouk bèf ki te sou zepòl Jeremi an, li kraze l' an miyèt moso.

Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and broke it.

11 Apre sa, li pran pale ankò devan tout pèp la. Li di konsa: -Men mesaj Seyè a: Nan dezan, jou pou jou, se konsa mwen pral kraze pouvwa Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan. Mwen pral kraze jouk bèf li te mete sou zepòl tout nasyon yo. Apre sa, pwofèt Jeremi al fè wout li.

And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: In this manner will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, from the neck of all the nations, within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way.

12 Kèk tan apre pwofèt Ananya te kraze jouk bèf ki te sou zepòl pwofèt Jeremi an, Seyè a pale ak Jeremi, li di l' konsa:

Then came the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying:

13 -Ale pale ak Ananya. W'a di l' men sa Seyè a voye di ou: Ou te kraze yon jouk bèf fèt an bwa. Ou pral ranplase l' ak yon jouk bèf fèt an fè.

Go and tell Hananiah, saying: Thou hast broken a yoke of wood, but thou shalt make instead of it a yoke of iron.

14 Paske men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la di: M'ap mete yon jouk fè sou zepòl tout nasyon sa yo pou yo sèvi Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan. Ata bèt nan bwa va soumèt devan l'.

For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: A yoke of iron do I put upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon; and they shall serve him. The beasts of the field also do I give to him.

15 Apre sa, pwofèt Jeremi di pwofèt Ananya konsa: -Koute byen, Ananya! Se pa Seyè a ki te voye ou di sa, tande. Ou twonpe konfyans pèp la.

Jeremiah the prophet said also to Hananiah the prophet: Hear now, Hananiah! Jehovah hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie.

16 Se sa ki fè men sa Seyè a di: Li pral disparèt ou sou latè. Anvan lanne an bout, w'ap mouri, paske ou pouse pèp la pou l' te kenbe tèt ak Seyè a!

Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will cast thee off from the face of the earth. This year thou shalt die; for thou hast spoken rebellion against Jehovah.

17 Menm lanne an vre, nan setyèm mwa a, pwofèt Ananya mouri.

And Hananiah the prophet died in the same year, in the seventh month.
