Jeremi 10
1 Tande pawòl la ke SENYÈ a ap pale ak ou, O lakay Israël.
Hear the word which he has spoken Yahweh to you O house of Israel.
2 Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Pa aprann abitid a nasyon yo, ni pa vin krent sign nan syèl yo, malgre nasyon yo krent yo anpil.
Thus - he says Yahweh [the] way of the nations may not you learn and from [the] signs of the heavens may not you be dismayed for they are dismayed the nations from them.
3 Paske abitid a pèp yo se afè twonpe moun; konsi se bwa ki koupe nan forè, zèv men atizan ki koupe ak zouti.
For [the] customs of the peoples [is] futility it for a tree from a forest someone has cut down it [the] work of [the] hands of a craftsman with tool.
4 Yo dekore l ak ajan ak lò; yo tache li ak klou ak mato, pou l pa deplase.
With silver and with gold he beautifies it with nails and with hammers they make strong them and not it will wobble.
5 Yo tankou yon bwa palmis ki fòme pa men moun, men yo pa ka pale. Fòk yo pote yo, paske yo pa ka mache! Pa krent yo; paske yo p ap ka fè okenn mal, ni yo p ap ka fè anyen ki bon.”
[are] like A scarecrow of a cucumber field they and not they speak certainly they are carried for not they walk may not you be afraid from them for not they do harm and also [is] doing good there not with them.
6 Nanpwen moun ki tankou Ou, O SENYÈ. Ou gran! Gran se non Ou an pwisans!
From there not [is] like you O Yahweh [are] great you and [is] great name your in strength.
7 Se kilès ki pa ta krent Ou, O Wa a nasyon yo? Anverite, se sa Ou merite! Paske pami tout moun saj nan nasyon yo, ak nan tout wayòm yo, nanpwen okenn tankou Ou.
Who? not will he fear you O king of the nations for for you it is befitting that among all [the] wise [people] of the nations and among all kingdom their from there not [is] like you.
8 Men yo tout ansanm se ensanse e plen ak foli; instwi pa zidòl yo——se bwa yo ye!
And in one they are stupid and they may be foolish [the] correction of futilities [is] wood it.
9 Ajan byen bat pote soti Tarsis ak lò ki sòti Uphaz, travay a yon atizan e men a yon òfèv. Vètman yo an vyolèt e mov; tout se zèv a ouvriye byen fò.
Silver beaten from Tarshish it is brought and gold from Uphaz [the] work of a craftsman and [the] hands of a metalsmith [is] violet stuff and purple clothing their [are the] work of skillful [people] all of them.
10 Men SENYÈ a se vrè Bondye a; Li se Bondye vivan an e Wa etènèl la. Devan kòlè Li, tout latè tranble e nasyon yo p ap ka sipòte gwo kòlè Li a.
And Yahweh [is] God truth he [is] God living and king of perpetuity from wrath his it shakes the earth and not they will endure nations indignation his.
11 Konsa ou va di yo: “dye ki pa t fè syèl la ak tè yo va peri soti sou latè ak anba syèl yo.”
Like this you will say to them gods the who heavens the and earth the not they made may they perish from earth the and from under heavens the these.
12 Bondye te fè tè a pa pouvwa Li. Li te etabli lemonn ak sajès Li; ak konprann Li, Li te etann syèl yo.
[he] made [the] earth By power his [he] established [the] world by wisdom his and by understanding his he stretched out [the] heavens.
13 Lè Li fè vwa L sone, dlo yo mele nan syèl yo. Li fè nwaj yo monte soti nan dènye pwent tè a. Li fè loray pou lapli, e Li fè van sòti nan depo Li yo.
To [the] sound of giving forth he a tumult of waters in the heavens and he made come up clouds from [the] end of (the earth *Q(K)*) lightning for the rain he makes and he brought out [the] wind from storehouses his.
14 Tout moun se ensanse, san konesans. Tout òfèv yo vin wont akoz zidòl li; paske imaj fonn li se desepsyon. Nanpwen souf nan yo.
He is stupid every person from knowledge he has been put to shame every metalsmith from [the] idol for [is] deception molten image his and not breath [is] in them.
15 Yo san valè, yon zèv k ap twonpe. Nan lè règleman pa yo, yo va peri.
[are] futility They a work of mockery at [the] time of punishment their they will perish.
16 Pòsyon ki pou Jacob la pa konsa; paske Kreyatè a tout bagay se Li menm; e Israël se tribi eritaj Li. SENYÈ dèzame yo se non Li.
Not [is] like these [the] portion of Jacob for [is [the] one who] formed everything he and Israel [is] [the] tribe of inheritance his [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.
17 Leve pakèt ou atè a, nou menm ki anba syèj!
Gather up from [the] ground bundle your (O [you who] dwell *Q(K)*) in the siege.
18 Paske konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, M ap voye pèp peye sa a deyò nan moman sa a. Mwen va fè yo pase anpil doulè, jis yo byen santi li.”
For thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to hurl forth [the] inhabitants of the land at the time this and I will cause distress to them so that they may find.
19 Malè a mwen, akoz blesi m nan! Blesi m nan byen grav. Men mwen te di: “Anverite, sa se gwo doulè m; fòk mwen pote l.”
Woe! to me on fracture my [is] severe wound my and I I said surely this [is] a sickness and I will endure it.
20 Tant mwen an fin detwi. Tout kòd mwen yo fin chire. Fis mwen yo te kite mwen. Yo pa la ankò. Nanpwen moun ki pou laji tant mwen an ankò, ni pou monte rido mwen yo.
Tent my it has been devastated and all tent cords my they have been snapped children my they have gone out from me and there not [are] they there not [is one who] pitches again tent my and [one who] raises tent curtains my.
21 Paske bèje yo vin tankou bèt ensanse; yo pa t chache SENYÈ a. Akoz sa, yo pa reyisi; tout bann mouton yo fin gaye.
For they have behaved stupidly the shepherds and Yahweh not they have sought there-fore not they have prospered and all flock their it has been scattered.
22 Bri rapò a rive! Gade byen, l ap vini— yon gwo zen k ap sòti nan peyi nò a! K ap fè vil a Juda yo vin yon dezolasyon, yon andwa pou chen mawon.
[the] sound of A report there! [it is] coming and a din great from a land of [the] north to make [the] cities of Judah a desolation a habitation of jackals.
23 Mwen konnen, O SENYÈ, ke chemen a yon nonm pa nan li menm, ni se pa posib pou moun ki mache a dirije pwòp pa pye li.
I know O Yahweh that not [belongs] to person way his not [belongs] to a person [who] walks to direct step[s] his.
24 Korije mwen, O SENYÈ, men avèk jistis; pa nan kòlè Ou, sinon Ou va fè m vin pa anyen menm.
Correct me O Yahweh only in justice may not [it be] in anger your lest you should diminish me.
25 Vide gwo kòlè Ou a sou nasyon ki pa konnen Ou yo ak sou fanmi ki pa rekonèt non Ou yo; paske yo te devore Jacob. Yo te devore li, manje l nèt e te devaste tout abitasyon li an.
Pour out rage your on the nations which not they have known you and on clans which on name your not they have called for they have consumed Jacob and they have consumed him and they have made an end of him and habitation his they have devastated.
