< Jeremi 36 >

1 Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò. Lè sa a, Jojakim, pitit Jozyas la, t'ap mache sou katran depi li te wa peyi Jida. Men sa Seyè a te di Jeremi:
And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying:
2 -Pran yon woulo papye. W'a kouche sou li tou sa mwen te di ou sou peyi Izrayèl la, sou peyi Jida a ak sou tout lòt nasyon yo. W'a ekri tout mesaj mwen te ba ou, depi sou rèy wa Jozyas rive jouk jòdi a.
Take thee a book-roll, and write upon it all the words which I have spoken to thee concerning Israel, and concerning Judah, and concerning all the nations, from the day when I began to speak to thee even to this day.
3 Ou pa janm konnen, lè moun peyi Jida yo va tande tout malè mwen fè lide voye sou yo, y'a konprann, y'a manyè kite move pant y'ap swiv la. Lè sa a, m'a padonnen tout mechanste ak peche yo te fè yo.
It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do to them, and return every one from his evil way, so that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
4 Se konsa, Jeremi rele Bawouk, pitit gason Nerija a, li dikte l' tout mesaj Seyè a te ba li epi Bawouk ekri yo nan woulo liv la.
Then Jeremiah called Baruch, the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah which he had spoken to him, upon a book-roll.
5 Apre sa, Jeremi bay Bawouk lòd sa yo: -Yo defann mwen antre nan tanp Seyè a. Mwen pa ka mete pye m' la.
And Jeremiah commanded Baruch and said: I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of Jehovah;
6 Men ou menm, ou prale nan tanp lan jou pou pèp la fè jèn lan. Ou pral li nan woulo liv ou te ekri a tou sa mwen te dikte ou la, tout mesaj Seyè a te bay yo. Ou pral li l' byen fò pou tout moun ki nan tanp lan ka tande, pou moun ki soti nan lavil peyi Jida yo ka tande tou.
therefore, go thou, and read in the roll which thou hast written from my mouth the words of Jehovah, in the ears of the people, in the house of Jehovah, upon the fast-day; also in the ears of all Judah, that come out of their cities, shalt thou read them.
7 Ou pa janm konnen, yo ka pran lapriyè nan pye Bondye, y'a manyè kite move pant yo t'ap swiv la. Paske Seyè a fè yo konnen li move anpil, li fache anpil sou pèp la.
It may be that they will prostrate themselves in supplication before Jehovah, and will return every one from his evil way. For great is the anger and the indignation which Jehovah hath denounced against this people.
8 Bawouk, pitit Nerija a, fè tou sa Jeremi te ba li lòd fè a. Li kanpe nan mitan Tanp lan, li li mesaj Seyè yo ki te nan liv la.
And Baruch, the son of Neriah, did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of Jehovah in the house of Jehovah.
9 Se te nan nevyèm mwa senkyèm lanne rèy Jojakim, pitit Jozyas la, yo te bay lòd pou tout moun lavil Jerizalèm yo ansanm ak tout moun ki te soti nan lavil peyi Jida yo epi ki te nan lavil Jerizalèm lan pou yo fè yon sèvis jèn pou mande Seyè a gras.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, that all the people in Jerusalem, and all the people that came out of the cities of Judah, proclaimed a fast before Jehovah, in Jerusalem.
10 Lè sa a, Bawouk pran liv mesaj Jeremi yo, li li l' nan tanp lan pou tout moun ka tande. Li te kanpe devan pyès chanm Gemarya, pitit gason Chafan an, ki te sekretè tanp lan. Chanm lan te bay sou gwo lakou anwo a, toupre kote yo pase pou antre nan Pòtay Nèf Tanp Seyè a.
Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah, in the chamber of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entrance of the new gate of the house of Jehovah, in the ears of all the people.
11 Miche, pitit Gemarya a, pitit pitit Chafan an, te tande tout mesaj Seyè yo ki te ekri nan liv la.
And when Micah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard from the book all the words of Jehovah,
12 Apre sa, li ale lakay wa a, nan biwo sekretè wa a, kote li jwenn tout gwo chèf yo reyini ap travay. Te gen Elichama, sekretè palè a, Delaya, pitit gason Chemaya, Elnatan, pitit Achbò, Gemarya, pitit Chafan, Zedekya, pitit Ananya, ak tout lòt gwo chèf yo.
he went down to the king's house, into the scribe's chamber; and lo, all the princes were sitting there, Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13 Miche di yo tou sa li te sot tande Bawouk ap li nan zòrèy pèp la.
Then Micah declared to them all the words which he had heard when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
14 Lè sa a, gwo chèf yo voye Jeoudi bò kot Bawouk. Jeoudi sa a, se te pitit Netanya, pitit pitit Chelemya, pitit pitit pitit Kouchi. li al di Bawouk pou li pote woulo liv li te li nan zòrèy pèp la bay chèf yo. Bawouk pote woulo liv la ba yo.
Then all the princes sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, and said, “Take in thy hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come.” So Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the roll in his hand, and came to them.
15 Yo di l' konsa: -Chita la, li l' pou nou tande. Bawouk li liv la pou yo.
And they said to him, “Sit down now, and read it in our ears.” And Baruch read it in their ears.
16 Lè yo tande tou sa ki te nan liv la, yo vin pè. Yonn pran gade lòt, epi yo di: -Se pou n' al fè wa a konnen bagay sa yo.
And when they had heard all the words, they looked with consternation upon one another, and they said to Baruch, “We must tell the king of all these things.”
17 Lèfini, yo mande Bawouk: -Mangè di nou ki jan ou te fè ka ekri tout bagay sa yo. Se Jeremi ki te dikte ou yo?
And they asked Baruch, saying, “Tell us now, how didst thou write all these words from his mouth?”
18 Bawouk reponn yo: -Se Jeremi menm ki te dikte tout mesaj sa yo. Mwen menm, mwen kouche yo sou woulo liv la ak lank.
And Baruch said to them, “With his mouth he pronounced to me all these words, and I wrote them on the book with ink.”
19 Lè sa a, chèf yo di Bawouk: -Al kache tande, ou menm ansanm ak Jeremi. Pa kite pyès moun konnen kote nou ye.
Then said the princes to Baruch, “Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah, and let no man know where ye are.”
20 Chèf yo kite woulo liv la lakay Elichama, sekretè palè a, y' ale nan lakou palè a, y' al rapòte wa a tout bagay.
And they went in to the king into the court; but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, and they told all these things in the ears of the king.
21 Lè sa a atò, wa a voye Jeoudi al chache woulo liv la lakay Elichama, sekretè a. Jeoudi pote liv la vini. Li tanmen li li byen fò pou wa a ansanm ak lòt chèf ki te kanpe bò wa a.
Then the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll, and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe; and Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes who stood beside the king.
22 Se te nan sezon fredi, nan nevyèm mwa a, wa a te nan kay kote li konn pase tan fredi a, li te chita devan yon gwo recho dife tou limen.
And the king was sitting in the winter-house, in the ninth month, and a brasier was burning before him.
23 Chak fwa Jeoudi te fin li twa ou kat kolonn nan liv la, wa a koupe yo ak yon ti kouto epi li jete yo nan dife a. Konsa konsa, jouk li boule tout woulo liv la.
And when Jehudi had read three or four sections, he [[the king]] cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire, into the brasier, until the whole roll was consumed in the fire in the brasier.
24 Men, ni wa a ni chèf li yo pa t' gen kè kase, ni yo pa t' fè anyen pou moutre yo te nan lapenn lè yo tande tou sa ki te nan woulo liv la.
And they were not afraid, and rent not their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants, who heard all these words;
25 Elnatan, pitit Delaja, ak Gemarya te lapriyè nan pye wa a pou li pa t' boule woulo liv la. Men, wa a pa koute yo.
and although Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah interceded with the king not to burn the roll, yet he would not hearken to them.
26 Okontrè, li pale ak Jerakmeyèl, pitit li a, ansanm ak Seraja, pitit Azryèl la, ak Chelemya, pitit Abdeyèl la. Li ba yo lòd pou yo arete pwofèt Jeremi ansanm ak Bawouk, sekretè l' la. Men Seyè a pa kite yo jwenn yo.
And the king commanded Jerahmeel, the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah, the son of Azreel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, to seize Baruch the scribe, and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah had hid them.
27 Apre wa a te fin boule woulo liv ki te gen tout mesaj Jeremi te dikte Bawouk la, Seyè a pale ak Jeremi ankò. Li di l' konsa:
Then came the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch had written from the mouth of Jeremiah, saying:
28 -Al chache yon lòt woulo papye. Ekri tou sa ki te nan premye woulo Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a, te boule a.
Take thee another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim, king of Judah, hath burned.
29 Lèfini, men sa w'a di sou Jojakim, wa Jida a. Seyè a pale, li di konsa: Ou boule woulo liv la, pa vre? Epi ou mande Jeremi poukisa li te ekri wa Babilòn lan gen pou l' vini pou l' kraze peyi a, pou l' touye dènye moun ak dènye bèt ki ladan l'.
And concerning Jehoiakim, king of Judah, thou shalt say, Thou hast burned this roll, saying, “Why hast thou written therein and said, The king of Babylon shall surely come and shall destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from it man and beast?”
30 Se poutèt sa, koulye a, men mesaj mwen menm Seyè a m'ap bay sou Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a: p'ap janm gen yonn nan pitit li yo ki pou chita sou fotèy David la pou gouvènen nan plas li. Kadav li pral rete atè konsa, pou chalè solèy bat li lajounen, pou fredi bat li lannwit.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim, king of Judah: He shall have not one to sit upon the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
31 M'ap pini yo, ni li menm ni pitit li yo, ni chèf li yo pou tou sa yo fè ki mal. Ni yo, ni moun lavil Jerizalèm yo, ni moun peyi Jida yo pa t' koute m' lè mwen t'ap avèti yo. M'ap voye sou yo malè mwen te di m'ap voye a.
And I will punish him, and his offspring, and his servants, for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil which I have pronounced against them, and they have not hearkened.
32 Se konsa Jeremi pran yon lòt woulo liv. Li bay Bawouk, sekretè li a, pitit Nerija a. Bawouk menm ekri tou sa Jeremi te di l'. Li ekri tout mesaj ki te nan premye woulo liv wa Jojakim te boule a, ansanm ak anpil lòt mesaj menm jan ak premye yo.
Then Jeremiah took another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim had burned in the fire; and there were added to them many words of the same kind.
