< Jeremi 13 >

1 Konsa SENYÈ a te pale mwen: “Ale achte pou kont ou yon senti an twal len. Mete l nan senti ou, men pa mete li nan dlo.”
The Lord seith these thingis to me, Go, and take in possessioun to thee a lynnun breigirdil; and thou schalt putte it on thi leendis, and thou schalt not bere it in to watir.
2 Konsa mwen te achte senti a selon pawòl SENYÈ a, e te mete l nan senti mwen.
And Y took in possessioun a breigirdil, bi the word of the Lord; and Y puttide aboute my leendis.
3 Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen yon dezyèm fwa a, epi te di:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me in the secounde tyme,
4 “Pran senti ke ou te achte a, ki antoure senti ou a, leve ale nan Rivyè Euphrate la, e kache li la nan yon twou wòch.”
and seide, Take the brigirdil, which thou haddist in possessioun, which is aboute thi leendis; and rise thou, and go to Eufrates, and hide thou it there, in the hoole of a stoon.
5 Konsa, mwen te ale kache li akote Rivyè Euphrate la, jan SENYÈ a te kòmande mwen an.
And Y yede, and hidde it in Eufrates, as the Lord comaundide to me.
6 Apre anpil jou, SENYÈ a te di m: “Leve ale nan Rivyè Euphrate la e leve pran senti ke M te kòmande ou sere la a.”
And it was don aftir ful many daies, the Lord seide to me, Rise thou, and go to Eufrates, and take fro thennus the brigirdil, whiche Y comaundide to thee, that thou schuldist hide it there.
7 Epi mwen te ale nan Rivyè Euphrate la, mwen te fouye e mwen te pran senti a sòti nan plas kote mwen te sere li. Konsa, gade byen, senti a te gate. Li te vin san valè.
And Y yede to Eufrates, and diggide out, and Y took the breigirdil fro the place, where Y hadde hidde it; and lo! the breigirdil was rotun, so that it was not able to ony vss.
8 Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
9 “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Se konsa Mwen va detwi ògèy a Juda ak gwo ògèy a Jérusalem nan.
and seide, The Lord seith these thingis, So Y schal make rotun the pride of Juda, and the myche pride of Jerusalem,
10 Pèp mechan sila a, ki refize koute pawòl Mwen yo, ki mache nan kou tèt di a kè yo e te ale dèyè lòt dye pou sèvi yo, e pou pwostène devan yo, kite yo vin tankou senti sa a, san okenn valè nèt.
and this worste puple, that nylen here my wordis, and goen in the schrewidnesse of her herte; and thei yeden aftir alien goddis, to serue hem, and to worschipe hem; and thei schulen be as this breigirdil, which is not able to ony vss.
11 Paske jan senti a kwoke nan senti a yon nonm nan, se konsa Mwen te fè tout lakay Israël kwoke sou Mwen,’ deklare SENYÈ a: ‘pou yo ta kapab pou Mwen, yon pèp, de rekonesans, pou lwanj e pou glwa; men yo pa t koute.’
For as a breigirdil cleueth to the leendis of a man, so Y ioynede faste to me al the hous of Israel, and al the hous of Juda, seith the Lord, that thei schulden be to me in to a puple, and in to name, and in to heriyng, and in to glorie; and thei herden not.
12 “Pou sa, ou gen pou pale pawòl sa a yo: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, “Fòk tout veso yo plen ak diven.”’ Epi lè yo di ou: ‘Èske nou pa konnen ke tout veso oblije plen ak diven?’
Therfor thou schalt seie to hem this word, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Ech potel schal be fillid of wyn. And thei schulen seie to thee, Whether we witen not, that ech potel schal be fillid of wyn?
13 Alò, pale yo: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, Mwen prèt pou plen tout sila ki rete nan peyi sa yo—wa k ap chita pou David sou twòn li an, prèt yo, pwofèt yo ak tout moun nan peyi Jérusalem yo—ak koze vin sou nèt la!
And thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord seith these thingis, Lo! Y shal fille with drunkenesse alle the dwelleris of this lond, and the kyngis of the generacioun of Dauith, that sitten on his trone, and the prestis, and profetis, and alle the dwelleris of Jerusalem.
14 Mwen va kraze yo, youn kont lòt, ni papa ni fis ansanm”, deklare SENYÈ a. “Mwen p ap gen pitye, ni regrè, ni konpasyon pou yo pa detwi.”’”
And Y schal scatere hem, a man fro his brother, and the fadris and sones togidere, seith the Lord; Y schal not spare, and Y schal not graunte, nether Y schal do mercy, that I leese not hem.
15 Koute e prete atansyon ak sa. Pa fè ògèy, paske SENYÈ a fin pale.
Here ye, and perseyue with eeris; nyle ye be reisid, for the Lord spak.
16 Bay glwa a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, avan li pote fènwa, avan pye nou vin glise tonbe sou mòn k ap plen tenèb yo; pou pandan nou ap tann limyè, Li pa fè l antre nan fènwa lanmò a pou l rive nan tenèb ki san espwa.
Yyue ye glorie to youre Lord God, bifore that it wexe derk, and bifor that youre feet hirte at derk hillis; ye schulen abide liyt, and he schal sette it in to the schadewe of deeth, and in to derknesse.
17 Men si ou pa koute sa a, nanm mwen va kriye an sekrè pou kalite ògèy sa a. Wi, zye m va kriye anmè e koule anpil dlo, akoz bann mouton SENYÈ a fin kaptif nèt.
That if ye heren not this, my soule schal wepe in hid place for the face of pride; it wepynge schal wepe, and myn iye shal caste out a teer, for the floc of the Lord is takun.
18 Di a wa a ak manman rèn nan: “Pran yon chèz ki ba, paske bèl kouwòn ou an, kouwòn de glwa a menm, fin tonbe kite tèt ou.”
Seye thou to the kyng, and to the ladi, Be ye mekid, sitte ye, for the coroun of youre glorie schal go doun fro youre heed.
19 Vil negev yo te fèmen ak kle, e nanpwen moun ki pou louvri yo. Tout Juda fin antre an egzil, antre an egzil nèt.
The cities of the south ben closid, and noon is that openith; al Juda is translatid bi perfit passyng ouere, ether goynge out of her lond.
20 Leve zye ou pou wè, men sila k ap vini soti nan nò yo. Kote bann mouton ki te bay a ou menm nan, bèl mouton ou yo?
Reise ye youre iyen, and se ye, what men comen fro the north; where is the floc which is youun to thee, thi noble scheep?
21 Kisa ou va di lè Li chwazi yo chèf sou nou— konsi, se nou menm ki te enstwi yo— ansyen zanmi nou yo vin chèf sou nou? Èske gwo doulè p ap sezi ou tankou yon fanm nan akouchman?
What schalt thou seie, whanne he schal visite thee? for thou hast tauyt hem ayens thee, and thou hast tauyt ayens thin heed. Whether sorewis han not take thee, as a womman trauelynge of child?
22 “Si ou di nan kè ou, poukisa bagay sa te rive mwen?” Akoz grandè a inikite ou, jip ou yo te vin retire e talon ou yo te vin ekspoze.
That if thou seist in thin herte, Whi camen these thingis to me? for the multitude of thi wickidnesse thi schamefulere thingis ben schewid, thi feet ben defoulid.
23 Èske Etyopyen an ka chanje koulè po li, oswa leyopa a takte li yo? Sèl Konsa nou menm tou, ak abitid fè mal, ta ka chanje 1 pou vin fè byen.
If a man of Ethiopie mai chaunge his skyn, ether a pard mai chaunge hise dyuersitees, and ye moun do wel, whanne ye han lerned yuel.
24 Akoz sa, Mwen va gaye yo kon pay nan van, nan van dezè a.
And Y schal sowe hem abrood, as stobil which is rauyschid of the wynd in desert.
25 “Sa se tiraj osò pa nou, pòsyon ke nou resevwa sòti nan Mwen an”, deklare SENYÈ a, “akoz nou te bliye Mwen e te mete konfyans nan sa ki fo.
This is thi lot, and the part of thi mesure of me, seith the Lord; for thou foryetidist me, and tristidist in a leesyng.
26 Akoz sa, Mwen menm va retire jip ou anwo figi ou, pou wont ou kapab vin vizib.
Wherfor and Y made nakid thin hipis ayens thi face, and thi schenschipe apperide,
27 Mwen te wè abominasyon nou yo, akadiltè ou yo e ranni ak anvi pou fè pwostitisyon lèd ou yo, sou kolin ak nan chan yo. Malè a ou menm, O Jérusalem! Pou jiskilè ou va rete pa pwòp?” Pou konbyen de tan sa va dire?
thin auowtries, and thin neyyng, and the felonye of thi fornycacioun on litle hillis in the feeld; Y siy thin abhomynaciouns. Jerusalem, wo to thee, thou schalt not be clensid after me til yit.
