Jeremi 49
1 Men sa Seyè a di sou moun peyi Amon yo: -Gen lè pa gen gason ankò nan peyi Izrayèl la? Pa gen moun pou defann tè zansèt yo a? Poukisa yo kite se moun k'ap sèvi Milkòm yo ki pran pòsyon tè fanmi Gad la pou yo? Poukisa se moun Amon yo ki rete nan lavil yo?
Of the people of Ammon. "Thus says the LORD: 'Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then does Milcom possess Gad, and his people dwell in its cities?
2 Se sa ki fè men jou a ap rive. Se mwen menm Seyè a k'ap pale la a. Mwen pral fè moun ki rete Raba, kapital peyi Amon an, tande bri lagè. Lavil la pral tounen yon pil wòch. Yo pral boule ti bouk li yo ratè. Lè sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo va reprann tè ki te pou yo a.
Therefore look, the days come,' says the LORD, 'that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the people of Ammon; and it shall become a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned with fire: then shall Israel possess those who possessed him,' says the LORD.
3 Nou menm moun lavil Esbon, plenn sò nou! Lavil Ayi fini! Medam lavil Raba yo, mare ren nou! Mete rad sak sou nou! Rele! Pran lari pou nou! Y'ap depòte Milkòm, bondye nou an, ansanm ak tout pè li yo ak tout chèf li yo!
'Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste; cry, you daughters of Rabbah, clothe yourself in sackcloth: lament, and run back and forth among the fences; for Milcom shall go into captivity, his priests and his officials together.
4 Poukisa n'ap fè grandizè konsa? Jan nou te kontan fon nou yo! Men fon yo tonbe. Bann moun tèt di, nou te mete konfyans nou nan richès nou. Nou t'ap di: Pa gen moun ki ka penmèt yo atake nou!
Why do you glory in the valleys, your flowing valley, backsliding daughter? You who trusted in her treasures, saying, "Who shall come to me?"
5 Mwen pral fè yon sèl laperèz pran nou. Se mwen menm sèl mèt la, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, ki di sa. Mwen pral fè tout vwazen nou yo fè nou tranble. Yo pral gaye nou. Chak moun pral kouri ale sou bò pa yo. P'ap gen pesonn pou fè yo sanble ankò.
Look, I will bring a fear on you,' says the LORD of hosts, 'from all who are around you; and you shall be driven out every man right forth, and there shall be none to gather together the fugitives.
6 Men apre sa, m'ap mete peyi Amon an kanpe ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
But afterward I will bring back the captivity of the people of Ammon,' says the LORD."
7 Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di sou peyi Edon: -Pa gen moun ki gen bon konprann ankò lavil Teman an? Moun lespri yo pa konn sa pou yo di. Yo pèdi tout konprann yo!
Of Edom. "Thus says the LORD of hosts: 'Is wisdom no more in Teman? Is counsel perished from the prudent? Is their wisdom vanished?
8 Nou menm moun lavil Dedan, vire do nou, kouri ale! Fè twou pou kache kò nou! Mwen pral fini ak moun Ezaou yo, paske lè pou m' regle ak yo a rive.
Flee, turn back, dwell in the depths, inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau on him, the time that I shall visit him.
9 Lè moun ap ranmase rekòt rezen, yo toujou kite dèyè pou moun k'ap vin grapiye yo. Lè vòlò antre lakay moun lannwit, yo annik pran sa yo bezwen.
If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? If thieves by night, wouldn't they destroy until they had enough?
10 Men mwen menm, mwen pral kite moun Ezaou yo toutouni. Mwen pral fè moun konnen tout kachèt li yo. Konsa, nanpwen kache pou yo ankò. Tout ras moun Edon yo, tout fanmi yo ak tout moun nan vwazinaj yo pral disparèt.
But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is destroyed, and his brothers, and his neighbors; and he is no more.
11 Pa gen pesonn k'ap rete pou di: Kite timoun ki san papa yo avè m'. M'a okipe yo. Vèv nou yo mèt konte sou mwen.
Leave your fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let your widows trust in me.'
12 Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Ata moun ki pa merite pou m' pini yo pral gen pou yo bwè gode chatiman an nèt ale. Se nou menm atò pou yo pa ta pini! Non. Yo p'ap pini nou? Se pou nou bwè nan gode chatiman an tou.
For thus says the LORD: 'Look, they to whom it did not pertain to drink of the cup shall certainly drink; and are you he who shall altogether go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you shall surely drink.
13 Se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap pale: Mwen fè sèman sou tèt mwen, m'ap fè lavil Bozra tounen yon dezè, yon pil vye mazi. Moun ap pase l' nan betiz, y'ap sèvi ak non l' pou bay madichon. Tout ti bouk nan vwazinaj li yo pral tounen yon pil vye mazi pou tout tan.
For I have sworn by myself,' says the LORD, 'that Bozrah shall become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all its cities shall be perpetual wastes.'"
14 Jeremi di ankò: -Mwen te tande mesaj Seyè a bay la. Li te voye mesaje nan tout nasyon yo pou di yo sanble tout lame yo pou yo mache pran Edon, pou y' al goumen avè l'.
I have heard news from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, "Gather yourselves together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle."
15 Seyè a pral fè peyi a vin tou fèb nan mitan nasyon yo. Pesonn p'ap respekte nou.
"For, look, I have made you small among the nations, and despised among men.
16 Se awogans ou ki fè ou pèdi tèt ou. Pa gen moun ki pè ou jan ou kwè l' la. Ou rete sou tèt gwo wòch yo, byen wo nan mòn yo. Ou te mèt bati kay ou byen wo tankou nich malfini, m'ap fè ou desann. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
As for your terror, the pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill: though you should make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there," says the LORD.
17 Seyè a di ankò: Se konsa peyi Edon an pral tounen yon dezè k'ap bay gwo lapenn. Tout moun k'ap pase bò la pral pran sezisman, y'ap pè.
"Edom shall become an astonishment: everyone who passes by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all its plagues.
18 Gwo malè sa ki te rive lavil Sodòm ak Gomò ansanm ak tout ti bouk nan vwazinaj yo, se malè sa a k'ap rive Edon tou. P'ap gen yon moun nan peyi a ankò. Pesonn p'ap rete la. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities of it," says the LORD, "no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man live in it.
19 Tankou yon lyon k'ap soti nan rakbwa bò larivyè Jouden an pou l' ale kote bèt yo ye nan savann yo, mwen menm Seyè a, m'ap vini, m'ap fè moun yo kouri kite peyi a anvan yo bat je yo. Lè sa a, se moun m'a chwazi a m'a mete pou gouvènen peyi a. Ki moun ki tankou m'? Ki moun ki ka koresponn avè m'? Ki chèf ki ka kenbe tèt avè m'?
Look, he shall come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation: for I will suddenly make them run away from it; and whoever is chosen, him will I appoint over it: for who is like me? And who will appoint me a time? And who is the shepherd who will stand before me?
20 Konsa, koute sa mwen soti pou m' fè moun Edon yo, sa mwen fè lide fè moun lavil Teman yo. Sèten, ata timoun yo, yo pral trennen pot ale. Yo pral devaste tout peyi a devan je yo.
Therefore hear the counsel of the LORD, that he has taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they shall drag them away, the little ones of the flock; surely he shall make their habitation desolate over them.
21 Lè peyi Edon an tonbe, l'ap fè yon kokennchenn bri, latè ap tranble. Y'ap tande rèl moun yo jouk bò lanmè Wozo yo.
The earth trembles at the noise of their fall; there is a cry, the noise which is heard in the Red Sea.
22 Tankou malfini k'ap plonje ak zèl li yo gran louvri, lènmi pral atake Bozra. Jou sa yo, vanyan sòlda peyi Edon yo pral pè tankou fanm ki gen tranche.
Look, he shall come up and fly as the eagle, and spread out his wings against Bozrah: and the heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs."
23 Men sa Seyè a di sou peyi Damas la: -Moun lavil Amat ak moun lavil Apad yo gen kè kase paske yo tande move nouvèl. Tankou lanmè, yo boulvèse, yo pa ka rete an plas.
Of Damascus. "Hamath is confounded, and Arpad; for they have heard evil news, they are melted away: there is sorrow on the sea; it can't be quiet.
24 Moun Damas yo fèb, yo kouri met deyò. Yo pè, yon sèl tranbleman pran yo. Yo nan lapenn, yo gen kè kase tankou fanm ki gen tranche.
Damascus has grown feeble, she turns herself to flee, and trembling has seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
25 Gade lavil tout moun te konnen an, lavil kote tout moun te gen kè kontan an! Pa gen yon moun ladan l'.
How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?
26 Jou sa a, y'ap touye jenn gason nou yo nan tout lari. Tout sòlda yo pral mouri. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a menm ki di sa.
Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be brought to silence in that day," says the LORD of hosts.
27 M'ap mete dife nan miray Damas yo. Dife a ap boule palè wa Bennadad la.
"I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the palaces of Ben Hadad."
28 Moun branch fanmi Keda yo ak chèf lavil Azò yo te pèdi batay la devan Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan. Men mesaj Seyè a bay sou yo: -Leve non! Ann mache pran Keda! Piye moun bò solèy leve yo.
Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck. "Thus says the LORD: 'Arise, go up to Kedar, and destroy the people of the east.'
29 Pran tant yo, kabrit yo, mouton yo, rido tant yo ansanm ak tout lòt bagay ki nan tant yo. Pran chamo yo. Di byen fò nan zòrèy yo: Kote ou pase tout moun pè.
Their tents and their flocks shall they take; they shall carry away for themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels; and they shall cry to them, 'Terror on every side.'
30 Nou menm moun lavil Azò, kouri met deyò, al kache kò nou nan twou! Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa. Paske Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, fè lide pou l' kraze nou. Li soti pou l' fini ak nou.
Flee, wander far off, dwell in the depths, you inhabitants of Hazor," says the LORD; "for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you, and has conceived a purpose against you."
31 Men sa Seyè a di ankò: Leve non! Ann al atake yon nasyon ki santi yo t' alèz san ankenn danje sou tèt yo! Pa gen pòtay nan lavil yo, ni ba fè pou fèmen yo. Yo la konsa san ankenn pwoteksyon.
"Arise, go up to a nation that is at ease, that dwells without care, says the LORD; that have neither gates nor bars, that dwell alone.
32 Yo pral pran tout chamo yo, yo pral separe tout kabrit ak mouton yo. Wi, m'ap gaye yo nan tout direksyon, bann moun sa yo ki koupe cheve yo kout. Kote yo pase m'ap fè malè tonbe sou yo. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
Their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their livestock a spoil: and I will scatter to all winds those who have the corners of their beards cut off; and I will bring their calamity from every side of them," says the LORD.
33 M'ap fè zòn Azò a tounen yon dezè pou tout tan, kote bèt nan bwa rete. Pesonn p'ap rete ladan l' ankò. Ankenn moun p'ap viv la.
"Hazor shall be a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation forever: no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man live in it."
34 Men mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Jeremi sou peyi Elam. Lè sa a, Sedesyas te fèk moute wa nan peyi Jida.
The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
35 Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di: -Mwen pral touye tout sòlda peyi Elam ki gen ladrès pou sèvi ak banza yo. Se yo menm ki te fè tout fòs peyi a.
"Thus says the LORD of hosts: 'Look, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
36 M'ap fè van leve nan tout direksyon pou soufle sou peyi Elam lan. M'ap gaye yo nan tout direksyon sou latè. M'ap mete tout moun li yo deyò. p'ap gen peyi sou latè kote ou p'ap jwenn yo.
On Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of the sky, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation where the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
37 M'ap fè moun Elam yo tranble devan lènmi yo, devan moun ki soti pou touye yo. M'ap fè gwo kòlè, m'ap voye gwo malè sou yo, m'ap lage yon gwo lame dèyè yo jouk m'a fini nèt ak yo.
I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before those who seek their life; and I will bring evil on them, even my fierce anger,' says the LORD; 'and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them;
38 M'ap disparèt wa yo a ansanm ak tout lòt chèf yo. Se la m'ap mete fotèy mwen an. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
and I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there king and officials,' says the LORD.
39 Men, nan jou k'ap vini apre sa yo, m'ap mete peyi Elam lan kanpe ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
'But it shall happen in the latter days, that I will bring back the captivity of Elam,' says the LORD."
