Jeremi 43

1 Lè Jeremi fin di pèp la tou sa Seyè a, Bondye yo a, te voye l' di yo, ki vle di tout pawòl ki ekri pi wo a,

And it came to pass, that when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto all the people all the words of Yhwh their God, for which Yhwh their God had sent him to them, even all these words,

2 Azarya, pitit Ochaya a, Jokanan, pitit Kareyak la, ansanm ak tout lòt mesye awogan yo di Jeremi konsa: -Manti! Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pa kras voye ou di nou pa desann al rete nan peyi Lejip.

Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou speakest falsely: Yhwh our God hath not sent thee to say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there:

3 Se Bawouk, pitit Nerija a, k'ap moute tèt ou sou nou. Li ta renmen lage nou nan men moun Babilòn yo pou yo touye nou, pou yo depòte nou lavil Babilòn.

But Baruch the son of Neriah setteth thee on against us, for to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they might put us to death, and carry us away captives into Babylon.

4 Se konsa, Jokanan, pitit Kareyak la, lòt chèf lame yo ansanm ak tout rès pèp la derefize koute pawòl Seyè a ki te di yo pou yo rete nan peyi Jida a.

So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, obeyed not the voice of Yhwh, to dwell in the land of Judah.

5 Lè sa a, Jokanan ak tout lòt chèf lame yo pran dènye moun ki te rete nan peyi Jida a, yo pati. Yo mennen tout moun ki te kite lòt peyi kote yo te gaye yo pou tounen vin viv nan peyi Jida a,

But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, that were returned from all nations, whither they had been driven, to dwell in the land of Judah;

6 fanm kou gason, tout timoun yo, tout pitit fi wa a. Yo mennen tout moun Neboucharadan, chèf lagad la, te kite avèk Gedalya, pitit Akikam, pitit pitit Chafan. Yo pran pwofèt Jeremi ansanm ak Bawouk, pitit Nerija a, avèk yo tou.

Even men, and women, and children, and the king’s daughters, and every person that Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah.

7 Yo pa koute lòd Seyè a, yo rive jouk lavil Tapanès.

So they came into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed not the voice of Yhwh: thus came they even to Tahpanhes.

8 Antan yo te lavil Tapanès, Seyè a pale ak Jeremi, li di l' konsa:

Then came the word of Yhwh unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

9 -Pran kèk gwo wòch, antere yo nan mòtye pave ki devan pòt pou antre kay farawon an, lavil Tapanès. W'a fè l' pou moun peyi Jida yo wè ou ap fè l'.

Take great stones in thine hand, and hide them in the clay in the brickkiln, which is at the entry of Pharaoh’s house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;

10 Lèfini, w'a di yo: men mesaj Seyè ki gen pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, bay: Mwen pral voye chache sèvitè m' lan, Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, mwen pral enstale fotèy li a nan anplasman kote wòch yo antere isit la. Se la l'a moute tant li a anwo yo.

And say unto them, Thus saith Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel; Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne upon these stones that I have hid; and he shall spread his royal pavilion over them.

11 Lè l'a rive, l'ap kraze peyi Lejip. Moun ki pou mouri anba move maladi va mouri, moun yo gen pou depòte yo, y'a depòte yo, moun pou l' fè touye yo, l'a fè touye yo.

And when he cometh, he shall smite the land of Egypt, and deliver such as are for death to death; and such as are for captivity to captivity; and such as are for the sword to the sword.

12 L'a mete dife nan kay tout bondye moun peyi Lejip yo. L'ap boule bondye moun Lejip yo osinon l'a pran yo, l'a pote yo ale avè l'. Menm jan yon gadò mouton netwaye dènye vèmen ki nan rad li, konsa tou wa a pral piye peyi Lejip la kite l' blanch. Lèfini, l'ap vire do l' san pesonn pa di l' anyen.

And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn them, and carry them away captives: and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd putteth on his garment; and he shall go forth from thence in peace.

13 L'ap kraze tout gwo moniman wòch lavil Eliopolis nan peyi Lejip, l'ap boule tout kay zidòl peyi Lejip yo.

He shall break also the images of Beth–shemesh, that is in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burn with fire.
