Jeremi 52
1 Sedesyas te gen venteyennan lè li vin wa peyi Jida. Li pase onzan lavil Jerizalèm ap gouvènen peyi a. Manman l' te rele Amoutal. Se te pitit fi Jeremi, moun lavil Libna.
Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king; he was king for eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
2 Wa Sedesyas te fè sa ki mal devan Bondye menm jan ak Jojakim.
And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Jehoiakim had done.
3 Se konsa, Seyè a te fache ni sou moun lavil Jerizalèm yo, ni sou moun peyi Jida yo, jouk jou li wete yo devan je l'. Sedesyas te pran lezam kont Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan.
And because of the wrath of the Lord this came about in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had sent them away from before him: and Zedekiah took up arms against the king of Babylon.
4 Se konsa, sou dezyèm jou dizyèm mwa nevyèm lanne depi Sedesyas te wa a, Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, vin atake lavil Jerizalèm ak tout lame li a. Yo moute kan yo devan miray lavil la, yo mete ranblè nan pye miray yo. Yo sènen l' nèt.
And in the ninth year of his rule, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came against Jerusalem with all his army and took up his position before it, building earthworks all round it.
5 Yo fèmen lavil la depi lè sa a rive sou onzyèm lanne rèy wa Sedeisas la.
So the town was shut in by their forces till the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
6 Sou nevyèm jou katriyèm mwa menm lanne sa a, te gen yon sèl grangou nan lavil la, moun yo pa t' gen anyen pou yo manje ankò.
In the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, the store of food in the town was almost gone, so that there was no food for the people of the land.
7 Yo fè yon twou nan miray yo. Atout lame moun Babilòn yo te sènen lavil la nèt, tout sòlda jwif yo met deyò, yo kite lavil la nan mitan lannwit, yo pase nan mitan jaden wa a, yo desann nan wout pòtay la nan mitan de miray yo, yo pran chemen Fon Jouden an pou yo.
Then an opening was made in the wall of the town, and all the men of war went in flight out of the town by night through the doorway between the two walls which was by the king's garden; (now the Chaldaeans were stationed round the town: ) and they went by the way of the Arabah.
8 Men, lame moun Babilòn yo rapouswiv wa Sedesyas. Lè yo rive nan plenn bò lavil Jeriko yo, yo mete men sou li. Lè sa a, tout sòlda li yo gaye, yo kouri kite l'.
And the Chaldaean army went after King Zedekiah and overtook him on the other side of Jericho, and all his army went in flight from him in every direction.
9 Lènmi yo pran wa a, yo mennen l' bay wa Babilòn lan, ki te lavil Ribla nan peyi Amat la. Se la Nèbikadneza jije li.
Then they made the king a prisoner and took him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath to be judged.
10 Antan yo lavil Ribla, li fè yo koupe kou tout pitit wa Sedesyas yo devan wa a. Li fè koupe kou tout chèf peyi Jida yo tou.
And the king of Babylon put the sons of Zedekiah to death before his eyes: and he put to death all the rulers of Judah in Riblah.
11 Lèfini, li fè yo pete tou de je wa Sedesyas, epi yo mare l' ak de gwo chenn fèt an kwiv. Yo mennen l' lavil Babilòn. Yo mete Sedesyas nan prizon, li rete la jouk li mouri.
And he put out Zedekiah's eyes; and the king of Babylon, chaining him in iron bands, took him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
12 Sou dizyèm jou senkyèm mwa nan disnevyèm lanne rèy Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, Neboucharadan, chèf lagad la, yonn nan konseye li yo, antre lavil Jerizalèm.
Now in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, in the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, a servant of the king of Babylon, came into Jerusalem.
13 Li met dife nan kay Bondye a ak nan palè wa a. Li boule dènye kay ki te lavil Jerizalèm, ata kay grannèg yo.
And he had the house of the Lord and the king's house and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burned with fire:
14 Li bay sòlda ki te avè l' yo lòd demoli tout gwo miray ranpa lavil Jerizalèm yo met atè.
And the walls round Jerusalem were broken down by the Chaldaean army which was with the captain.
15 Lèfini, Neboucharadan, chèf lagad la, pran rès moun yo te kite lavil la, li depòte yo lavil Babilòn ansanm ak tout moun ki te vin rann tèt yo bay wa Babilòn lan ak tout bon bòs atizan ki te rete nan lavil la.
Then Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took away as prisoners the rest of the people who were still in the town, and those who had given themselves up to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the workmen.
16 Men, li kite kèk moun nan mas pèp la ki pa t' gen anyen. Li ba yo jaden rezen ak lòt jaden pou yo okipe.
But Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, let the poorest of the land go on living there, to take care of the vines and the fields.
17 Moun Babilòn yo pran gwo poto kwiv yo ki te nan tanp Seyè a, ansanm ak sipò yo, gwo basen kwiv yo, yo kraze yo fè ti moso, yo pote kwiv la ale lavil Babilòn.
And the brass pillars which were in the house of the Lord, and the wheeled bases and the great brass water-vessel in the house of the Lord, were broken up by the Chaldaeans, who took all the brass away to Babylon.
18 Yo pran plat pou resevwa sann yo, pèl yo, kouto yo, gode yo, tas yo ak tout lòt bagay an kwiv yo te konn sèvi nan tanp lan.
And the pots and the spades and the scissors for the lights and the spoons, and all the brass vessels used in the Lord's house, they took away.
19 Chèf lagad la pran dènye bagay ki te fèt an lò ak an ajan: kivèt yo, recho yo, gode yo, plat pou resevwa sann yo, lanp sèt branch yo, bòl yo ak tas yo,
And the cups and the fire-trays and the basins and the pots and the supports for the lights and the spoons and the wide basins; the gold of the gold vessels, and the silver of the silver vessels, the captain of the armed men took away.
20 de gwo poto yo, gwo basen lan ak douz estati towo ki te sèvi l' sipò yo, ak kabwèt wa Salomon te fè fè an kwiv pou mete nan tanp lan. Tout bagay sa yo te lou anpil, pesonn pa t' konn pèz yo.
The two pillars, the great water-vessel, and the twelve brass oxen which were under it, and the ten wheeled bases, which King Solomon had made for the house of the Lord: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
21 De poto yo te parèy yonn ak lòt: yo chak te gen vennsèt pye wotè, se yon kòd dizwit pye longè ki pou ta fè wonn yo chak. Poto yo te vid nan mitan. Rebò yo te gen twa pous epesè.
And as for the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and twelve cubits measured all round, and it was as thick as a man's hand: it was hollow.
22 Sou tèt chak poto te gen yon blòk an kwiv sèt pye edmi wotè. Sou tout wonn tèt poto yo, te gen desen ti chenn makònen yonn ak lòt, ak anpil pòtre grenad plake sou yo. Tout te fèt an kwiv. De poto yo te parèy.
And there was a crown of brass on it: the crown was five cubits high, circled with a network and apples all of brass; and the second pillar had the same.
23 Sou wonn tèt poto yo te gen san grenad antou, men antan ou anba ou te ka wè katrevensèz grenad sèlman.
There were ninety-six apples on the outside; the number of apples all round the network was a hundred.
24 Lèfini, Neboucharadan, chèf lagad la, pran Seraya, granprèt la, Sefanya, adjwen li an ansanm ak twa lòt chèf ki la pou veye pòtay tanp lan, li fè yo prizonye.
And the captain of the armed men took Seraiah, the chief priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three door-keepers;
25 Nan lavil la, li pran chèf ki te alatèt lame a ansanm ak sèt lòt otorite ki te toujou avèk wa a, ak sekretè kòmandan lame a ki te reskonsab pou pran moun nan lame a, ak swasant lòt grannèg. Tout moun sa yo te nan lavil la toujou.
And from the town he took the unsexed servant who was over the men of war, and seven of the king's near friends who were in the town, and the scribe of the captain of the army, who was responsible for getting the people of the land together in military order, and sixty men of the people of the land who were in the town.
26 Neboucharadan pran yo, li mennen yo bay wa Babilòn lan lavil Ribla.
These Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took with him to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
27 Wa a fè bat yo, lèfini li fè touye yo lavil Ribla nan peyi Amat. Se konsa yo te depòte moun peyi Jida yo byen lwen peyi yo.
And the king of Babylon put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was taken prisoner away from his land.
28 Men kantite moun wa Nèbikadneza te depòte: Nan setyèm lanne rèy li a, li depòte twamil venntwa (3.023) moun peyi Jida.
These are the people whom Nebuchadrezzar took away prisoner: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews:
29 Nan dizwityèm lanne rèy li a, li depòte witsantrannde (832) moun lavil Jerizalèm.
And in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he took away as prisoners from Jerusalem eight hundred and thirty-two persons:
30 Nan venntwazyèm lanne rèy li a, Neboucharadan, chèf lagad la, te pran sètsankarannsenk (745) moun. Antou sa te fè katmil sisan (4.600) moun yo te depòte.
In the twenty-third year of Nebuchadrezzar, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took away as prisoners seven hundred and forty-five of the Jews: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
31 Premye lanne wa Evilmewodak pran pouvwa a lavil Babilòn, li fè pa Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a, li fè l' soti nan prizon. Lè sa a, Jojakim te gen trannsizan onz mwa, vennsenk jou, jou pou jou, depi yo te depòte l'.
And in the thirty-seventh year after Jehoiachin, king of Judah, had been taken prisoner, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth day of the month, Evil-merodach, king of Babylon, in the first year after he became king, took Jehoiachin, king of Judah, out of prison.
32 Evilmewodak te sèvi byen avè l', li ba l' premye plas nan mitan tout lòt wa yo te depòte lavil Babilòn tankou l' yo.
And he said kind words to him and put his seat higher than the seats of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
33 Li wete rad prizonye ki te sou Jojakim lan, li fè l' vin manje sou menm tab avè l' jouk Jojakim mouri.
And his prison clothing was changed, and he was a guest at the king's table every day for the rest of his life.
34 Chak jou, wa a ba li sa li te bezwen pou l' viv, konsa, konsa, jouk li mouri.
And for his food, the king gave him a regular amount every day till the day of his death, for the rest of his life.
