Jeremi 12
1 Byen dwat, se Ou menm, O SENYÈ, lè m plede ka m avèk Ou. Anverite, mwen ta diskite yon ka lajistis avèk Ou. Poukisa chemen mechan an byen reyisi konsa? Poukisa tout sa ki aji nan manti yo rete alèz konsa?
[are] righteous You O Yahweh if I bring a case to you nevertheless judgments I will speak with you why? [the] way of wicked [people] does it prosper are they at ease? all [those who] act treacherously of treachery.
2 Ou te plante yo. Wi, konsa yo fin pran rasin. Yo grandi. Wi, yo fè fwi. Ou toupre nan lèv yo, men lespri yo lwen W.
You have planted them also they have taken root they walk also they have produced fruit [are] near you in mouth their and distant from kidneys their.
3 Men Ou konnen mwen, O SENYÈ. Ou wè mwen. Ou fè egzamen pou wè kè m vè Ou menm. Rale yo akote, tankou mouton k ap prale labatwa; mete yo apa pou jou gwo masak la.
And you O Yahweh you know me you see me and you test heart my with you drag away them like sheep to slaughter and set apart them to a day of slaughter.
4 Depi kilè peyi a va gen dèy konsa, e vèdi chan an vin sèch konsa? Akoz mechanste a sila ki rete ladann yo, ni bèt ni zwazo detwi nèt; akoz yo te di: “Li p ap wè dènye fen nou an.”
Until when? will it dry up the land and [the] vegetation of every field will it be dried up from [the] evil of [those who] dwell in it it has dwindled away animals and bird[s] for people have said not he will see end our.
5 Si ou te kouri ak moun apye yo, e yo fè ou bouke, kijan ou ka fè kous ak cheval? Malgre, nan yon peyi lapè, ou gen sekirite, men kijan ou va reyisi nan vye rakbwa Jourdain an?
If with foot soldiers - you have run and they have made weary you and how? will you compete with the horses and in a land of safety you [are] falling to [the] ground and how? will you do in [the] thicket of the Jordan.
6 Paske menm frè ou yo ak lakay papa ou a; menm yo menm, te fè trèt avèk ou! Menm yo menm, te rele dèyè ou. Pa kwè yo, malgre bèl pawòl dous.
For also brothers your and [the] house of father your also they they have dealt treacherously with you also they they have called out after you full may not you trust in them for they speak to you good things.
7 “Mwen te abandone lakay Mwen an, Mwen te abandone eritaj Mwen an; Mwen fin bay fi byeneme a nanm Mwen an pou antre nan men lènmi li yo.
I have forsaken house my I have abandoned inheritance my I have given [the] beloved one of self my in [the] hand enemies her.
8 Eritaj Mwen an te vini pou Mwen, kon yon lyon k ap gwonde nan forè a. Li te gwonde kont Mwen. Akoz sa, Mwen te vin rayi li.
It has become to me inheritance my like a lion in the forest it has given on me with voice its there-fore I hate it.
9 Èske eritaj Mwen an gen tan vin tankou yon zwazo takte nan lachas? Èske gen zwazo voras kont li tout kote? Ale, rasanble tout bèt sovaj nan chan yo. Mennen yo pou yo ka devore!
¿ A bird of prey speckled [is] inheritance my to me that [are] bird[s] of prey? all around on it go gather every animal of the field bring [them] for food.
10 Anpil bèje fin gate chan rezen Mwen yo. Yo te foule chan Mwen an anba pye; yo te fè bèl chan Mwen an vin yon savann dezole.
Shepherds many they have ruined vineyard my they have trodden down portion my they have made [the] portion of desire my into a wilderness of desolation.
11 Li te vin yon dezè. Abandonen, li plenyen devan M. Tout latè vin dezole, akoz pèsòn pa pran sa an kè.
He has made it into a desolation it is in mourning on me desolate it has been made desolate all the land for there not [is] anyone [who] puts [it] on heart.
12 Sou tout do mòn sèch nan dezè yo, destriktè yo vin parèt, paske yon nepe SENYÈ a ap devore soti nan yon pwent peyi a jis rive nan lòt la. Nanpwen lapè pou pèsòn.
Over all [the] bare heights in the wilderness they have come destroyers for a sword of Yahweh [is] devouring from an end of [the] land and to [the] end of the land not peace [belongs] to any flesh.
13 Se ble yo te simen e yo rekòlte pikan. Yo te fè gwo efò, san ke yo pa reyisi anyen. Men se pou nou vin wont rekòlt nou an akoz gwo kòlè SENYÈ a.”
People have sown wheat and thorns they have reaped they have wearied themselves not they have profited and be ashamed from produce your from [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh.
14 Konsa pale SENYÈ a de tout vwazen mechan k ap atake eritaj ke Mwen te bay a pèp Mwen an, Israël: “Gade byen, Mwen prèt pou dechouke yo depi nan peyi pa yo. Anplis, Mwen va dechouke lakay Juda soti nan mitan yo.
Thus - he says Yahweh on all neighbors my evil who touch the inheritance which I gave as an inheritance people my Israel here I [am] about to pluck up them from on land their and [the] house of Judah I will pluck up from among them.
15 Epi li va vin rive ke apre Mwen dechouke yo, Mwen va ankò gen konpasyon pou yo. Mwen va mennen yo retounen, yo chak a eritaj pa yo, e yo chak nan pwòp peyi pa yo.
And it will be after have plucked up I them I will return and I will have compassion on them and I will bring back them everyone to own inheritance his and everyone to own land his.
16 Epi si, anverite, yo va aprann chemen a pèp Mwen an, pou sèmante pa non Mwen: ‘Kon SENYÈ a viv la’, menm jan ke yo menm te enstwi pèp Mwen an pou sèmante pa Baal yo, yo va vin etabli nan mitan pèp Mwen an.
And it will be certainly [if] they will learn [the] ways of people my to swear by name my [by] [the] life of Yahweh just as they taught people my to swear by Baal and they will be built in among people my.
17 Men si yo pa koute, alò, Mwen va dechouke nasyon sa a, dechouke e detwi li,” deklare SENYÈ a.
And if not they will listen and I will pluck up the nation that plucking up and destroying [the] utterance of Yahweh.
