Jeremi 48
1 Men mesaj Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, bay sou peyi Moab la: -Ala malè pou moun lavil Nebo yo! Yo ravaje lavil la nèt ale. Moun lavil Kiryatayim yo wont! Lènmi anvayi lavil la, yo pran gwo fò a, yo kraze l' ratè!
Of Moab. The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Woe to Nebo! For it is laid waste. Kiriathaim is disappointed. It is taken. Misgab is put to shame and broken down.
2 Peyi Moab la pèdi pouvwa li. Nan lavil Esbon yo fè plan pou yo detwi Moab. Yo di: Ann ale, ann disparèt peyi a sou latè! Yo fè lavil Madmèn pe bouch li. Yon gwo lame ap mache pran l'!
The praise of Moab is no more. In Heshbon they have devised evil against her: ‘Come! Let’s cut her off from being a nation.’ You also, Madmen, will be brought to silence. The sword will pursue you.
3 Moun lavil Owonayim yo ap rele: Men y'ap ravaje nou! Y'ap fè malè sou nou!
The sound of a cry from Horonaim, desolation and great destruction!
4 Yo kraze peyi Moab. Tout pitit li yo ap rele!
Moab is destroyed. Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
5 Se dlo nan je y'ap moute lavil Loukit. Sou tout wout pou desann Owonayim, se gwo rèl pou malè ki rive yo!
For they will go up by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping. For at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
6 Y'ap rele: Kouri non, sove lavi nou! Al kache tankou bourik mawon nan dezè a.
Flee! Save your lives! Be like the juniper bush in the wilderness.
7 Ou te mete konfyans ou nan fòs ou ak nan richès ou yo! Ou menm tou, lènmi ap anvayi ou! Y'ap depòte Kemòch, bondye ou la, ansanm ak tout pè li yo ak tout chèf li yo.
For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also will be taken. Chemosh will go out into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
8 Malè pral tonbe sou tout lavil nou yo. Yo yonn p'ap chape anba l'. L'ap fini ak sa ki nan fon yo. L'ap ravaje sa ki sou platon yo. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
The destroyer will come on every city, and no city will escape; the valley also will perish, and the plain will be destroyed, as the LORD has spoken.
9 Pare yon mab pou mete sou tonm Moab. Talè konsa yo pral detwi l' nèt. Tout lavil peyi Moab yo fin kraze. P'ap gen yon moun rete la ankò.
Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get herself away: and her cities will become a desolation, without anyone to dwell in them.
10 Madichon pou moun ki pote neglijans nan fè travay Seyè a! Madichon pou moun ki derefize touye nan lagè a!
“Cursed is he who does the work of the LORD negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
11 Peyi Moab te toujou viv san ankenn danje depi tout tan. Yo pa janm depòte moun li yo. Li te tankou diven yo kite poze nan barik, san yo pa janm vide l' sot nan yon veso mete l' nan yon lòt. Se konsa li pa janm pèdi gou l'. Li pa janm vante.
“Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his dregs, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity; therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.
12 Men lè a rive koulye a, se Seyè a menm ki di sa. Mwen pral voye moun pou yo vide peyi Moab la tankou diven. Yo pral devide veso yo. Yo pral kraze barik yo an miyèt moso.
Therefore behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will send to him those who pour off, and they will pour him off; and they will empty his vessels, and break their containers in pieces.
13 Moun peyi Moab yo pral wont Kemòch, bondye yo a, menm jan moun fanmi Izrayèl yo te wont bondye lavil Betèl ki te tout konfyans yo a.
Moab will be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel, their confidence.
14 Ki jan nou ka fè di: Nou se vanyan gason, sòlda brave danje ki konn fè lagè?
“How do you say, ‘We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war’?
15 Yo fini ak peyi Moab. Yo anvayi tout lavil li yo. Yo ansasinen tout jenn gason ki pi bon lakay li yo. Se mwen menm Wa a, mwen menm yo rele Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki di sa.
Moab is laid waste, and they have gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men have gone down to the slaughter,” says the King, whose name is the LORD of Armies.
16 Jou pou yo fini ak Moab la ap pwoche. Malè ki pral tonbe sou Moab la pa lwen rive.
“The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.
17 Nou menm, vwazen l' yo, plenn sò li! Nou tout ki te konnen jan l' te ye a, nou mèt di: Gade jan yo kraze gwo pouvwa li a! Bèl baton kòmandman ki te nan men l' lan disparèt.
All you who are around him, bemoan him; and all you who know his name, say, ‘How the strong staff is broken, the beautiful rod!’
18 Nou menm k'ap viv lavil Dibon, desann sou bèl fotèy premye klas nou an. Mete dèyè nou atè nan pousyè a. Paske moun ki te fini ak Moab la ap vin pou nou. L'ap kraze tout gwo fò nou yo.
“You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you. He has destroyed your strongholds.
19 Nou menm k'ap viv lavil Awoyè. Rete sou bò wout la tann. Mande moun k'ap kouri met deyò yo sa ki pase.
Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way and watch. Ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, ‘What has been done?’
20 Y'a reponn ou: Peyi Moab tonbe! Plenn sò li, pete rèl pou li: Yo fè l' wont! Fè tout moun ki rete bò ravin Anon an konnen yo ravaje peyi Moab la.
Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down. Wail and cry! Tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.
21 Jou jijman an rive pou lavil yo ki sou platon an: Olon, Jasa ak Mefat,
Judgment has come on the plain country— on Holon, on Jahzah, on Mephaath,
22 Didon, Nebo ak Bèt-Diblatayim,
on Dibon, on Nebo, on Beth Diblathaim,
23 Kiryatayim, Bèt-Gamoul, Bèt Meyon,
on Kiriathaim, on Beth Gamul, on Beth Meon,
24 Keriyòt, Bozra. Jijman rive sou tout lavil peyi Moab yo, kit sa ki toupre, kit sa ki byen lwen.
on Kerioth, on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25 Yo kraze lògèy moun Moab yo. Yo kraze kouraj yo. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki pale.
The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken,” says the LORD.
26 Seyè a di ankò: -Fè lavil Moab sou, paske li te kenbe tèt avè m'. Se pou Moab woule nan vonmi l'. Li menm tou, se pou yo pase l' nan rizib.
“Make him drunk, for he magnified himself against the LORD. Moab will wallow in his vomit, and he also will be in derision.
27 Chonje jan nou te konn ap pase pèp Izrayèl la nan rizib. Eske nou te janm bare yo ap fè bann ak vòlò kifè chak fwa n'ap pale sou yo, n'ap souke tèt nou, n'ap di podjab pou yo?
For wasn’t Israel a derision to you? Was he found among thieves? For as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
28 Nou menm moun Moab, kite lavil nou yo, al rete nan twou wòch. Fè tankou ranmye ki fè nich yo nan twou bò falèz.
You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock. Be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
29 Moun Moab yo se moun ki gen lògèy anpil. Nou te konnen jan moun sa yo te gen lògèy, jan yo te awogan. Yo te kwè wa pa kouzen yo, y'ap gonfle lestonmak yo sou moun.
“We have heard of the pride of Moab. He is very proud in his loftiness, his pride, his arrogance, and the arrogance of his heart.
30 Men mwen menm Seyè a, mwen konnen yo te kwè twòp nan tèt yo. Bèl diskou yo t'ap fè yo se te pawòl nan bouch. Tou sa y'ap fè pa vo anyen.
I know his wrath,” says the LORD, “that it is nothing; his boastings have done nothing.
31 Se konsa, m'ap plenn sò moun Moab yo, m'ap rele pou tout peyi Moab yo, pou moun lavil Ki-Erès yo.
Therefore I will wail for Moab. Yes, I will cry out for all Moab. They will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
32 M'ap kriye pou moun lavil Sibma yo plis pase jan mwen te kriye pou moun lavil Jazè yo. Lavil Sibma te tankou yon gwo pye rezen. Branch li yo travèse lòt bò lanmè Mouri a, yo rive jouk lavil Jazè. Men koulye a, yo ravaje tout rekòt la, yo dechèpiye tout rezen nou te ranmase yo.
With more than the weeping of Jazer I will weep for you, vine of Sibmah. Your branches passed over the sea. They reached even to the sea of Jazer. The destroyer has fallen on your summer fruits and on your vintage.
33 Pa gen kè kontan ak fèt ankò nan jaden rezen peyi Moab yo. Pa gen yon degout diven ankò nan barik yo. Pa gen yon moun k'ap travay nan moulen pou fè diven. Nou pa tande yon moun ap bay ankourajman.
Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab. I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses. No one will tread with shouting. The shouting will be no shouting.
34 Moun Esbon yo ap rele. Yo tande rèl yo jouk lavil Elealè, jouk lavil Jaaz, depi lavil Zoa jouk lavil Owonayim ak Eglat-Chelichya. Ata ti dlo Nimrim lan gen pou l' cheche.
From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz they have uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for the waters of Nimrim will also become desolate.
35 M'ap disparèt moun lavil Moab yo. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa. M'ap touye moun k'ap fè ofrann pou yo boule sou tèt mòn yo, moun k'ap boule lansan pou bondye yo.
Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab,” says the LORD, “him who offers in the high place, and him who burns incense to his gods.
36 Se poutèt sa, kè m' ap fè m' mal anpil pou moun Moab yo, pou moun Ki-Erès yo. M'ap plenn sò yo tankou moun k'ap jwe fif nan lantèman. Paske yo pèdi tou sa yo te genyen.
Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like flutes, and my heart sounds like flutes for the men of Kir Heres. Therefore the abundance that he has gotten has perished.
37 Yo tout, yo kale tèt yo, yo koupe tout bab nan figi yo, yo kòche tout men yo ak kouto, yo mare sak nan ren yo.
For every head is bald, and every beard clipped. There are cuttings on all the hands, and sackcloth on the waist.
38 Sou teras anwo tout kay peyi Moab yo, sou tout plas piblik, se plenn moun yo ap plenn. Mwen kraze peyi Moab tankou yon kannari pesonn pa bezwen ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
On all the housetops of Moab, and in its streets, there is lamentation everywhere; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which no one delights,” says the LORD.
39 Yo fini ak peyi Moab! Plenn sò li. Moab pèdi pye, li wont. Tout nasyon ki nan vwazinaj li yo ap pase l' nan rizib, yo tout sezi wè sa ki rive l'.
“How it is broken down! How they wail! How Moab has turned the back with shame! So will Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.”
40 Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Tankou yon malfini, yon lènmi ap plane ak zèl li yo gran louvri sou Moab.
For the LORD says: “Behold, he will fly as an eagle, and will spread out his wings against Moab.
41 Li pran tout lavil yo, li mete men sou tout fò yo. Jou sa a, vanyan sòlda lame Moab yo te pè tankou yon fanm ki gen tranche.
Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized. The heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42 Y'ap fini ak peyi Moab la, y'ap touye dènye moun ladan l', paske li te kenbe tèt ak Seyè a.
Moab will be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against the LORD.
43 Nou menm moun Moab yo, yo pral ban nou sezisman, y'ap fouye twou pou nou tonbe, y'ap pare pèlen pou nou. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
Terror, the pit, and the snare are on you, inhabitant of Moab,” says the LORD.
44 Moun k'ap kouri pou sezisman pa pran yo pral tonbe nan twou. Lè y'a kouri soti nan twou a, y'ap pran nan pèlen. Paske dat Seyè a te fikse pou li pini Moab la rive sou li. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
“He who flees from the terror will fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit will be taken in the snare, for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation,” says the LORD.
45 Moun k'ap kouri met deyò yo rive Esbon tou bouke. Y'ap chache pwoteksyon lavil Esbon, lavil kote wa Siyon t'ap gouvènen an: men yo jwenn li ap boule. Dife a gaye, li rive jouk sou fwontyè a, li moute rive jouk sou tèt mòn lwijanboje yo.
“Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, and a flame from the middle of Sihon, and has devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
46 Sa fè lapenn pou moun Moab yo! Tout moun ki t'ap sèvi Kèmòch yo fini. Yo pran pitit gason ak pitit fi yo, yo fè yo prizonye, yo depòte yo.
Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh are undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.
47 Men nan jou k'ap vin apre yo, m'ap mete peyi Moab la kanpe ankò. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki di sa. Se tou sa ki pral rive moun Moab yo.
“Yet I will reverse the captivity of Moab in the latter days,” says the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
