Jeremi 21
1 Pawòl ki te vini kote Jérémie soti nan SENYÈ a, lè Wa Sédécias te voye Paschhur, fis a Malkija a, ak Sophonie, fis a Maaséja a, prèt la, pou di l:
The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh when sent to him the king Zedekiah Pashhur [the] son of Malkijah and Zephaniah [the] son of Maaseiah the priest saying.
2 Souple, mande a SENYÈ a pou nou menm, paske Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan ap fè lagè kont nou. Petèt SENYÈ a va aji avèk nou selon zèv mèvèy Li yo, pou lènmi an rete kò l sou nou.
Seek please for us Yahweh for Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon [is] waging war on us perhaps he will do Yahweh with us according to all wonders his and he may go up from on us.
3 Alò, Jérémie te di yo: “Nou va di Sédécias konsa:
And he said Jeremiah to them thus you will say! to Zedekiah.
4 ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ Bondye Israël la: “Gade byen, Mwen prèt pou vire zam lagè ki nan men nou yo, zam ak sila n ap batay kont wa Babylone nan, ak Kaldeyen k ap fè syèj nou deyò miray la. Konsa, Mwen va rasanble yo nan mitan vil sa a.
Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to turn round [the] weapons of war which [are] in hand your which you [are] fighting by them with [the] king of Babylon and with the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you from [the] outside of the wall and I will gather them into [the] middle of the city this.
5 Mwen menm, Mwen va fè lagè kont nou ak yon men lonje, ak yon bra pwisan, menm ak kòlè, gwo kòlè, ak gwo endiyasyon.
And I will fight I with you by a hand outstretched and by an arm strong and in anger and in rage and in wrath great.
6 Anplis, Mwen va frape tout sa ki rete nan vil sa a, ni lòm, ni bèt. Yo va mouri akoz yon gwo epidemi.
And I will strike down [the] inhabitants of the city this and the humankind and the animal[s] by a pestilence great they will die.
7 Lè l fini”, deklare SENYÈ a: “Mwen va livre Sédécias, wa Juda a ak sèvitè li yo ak pèp la, sila yo ki chape nan vil sa a de epidemi, nepe, ak gwo grangou, pou fè yo antre nan men a wa Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, nan men a lènmi pa yo ak nan men a sila k ap chache lavi yo. Epi li va frape yo ak kout nepe. Li p ap lese yo, ni gen okenn pitye, ni konpasyon pou yo.”’
And after thus [the] utterance of Yahweh I will give Zedekiah [the] king of Judah and servants his - and the people and those [who] remain in the city this from the pestilence - from the sword and from the famine in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of enemies their and in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and he will strike down them to [the] mouth of [the] sword not he will have mercy on them and not he will show pity and not he will have compassion.
8 “Anplis, Ou va di a pèp sa a: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, Mwen mete devan nou chemen lavi ak chemen lanmò.
And to the people this you will say thus he says Yahweh here I [am] putting before you [the] way of life and [the] way of death.
9 Sila ki rete nan vil sa a va mouri pa nepe ak gwo grangou, ak epidemi, men sila ki soti e desann kote Kaldeyen k ap fè syèj kont nou yo, va sove lavi li. Li va chape ak lavi li.
The [one who] remains in the city this he will die by the sword and by famine and by pestilence and the [one who] goes out and he will fall on the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you (and he will live *Q(K)*) and it will belong to him life his to plunder.
10 Paske Mwen te ranje figi M kont vil sa a pou mal, e pa pou byen,” deklare SENYÈ a. “Li va livre nan men a wa Babylone nan e li va brile li ak dife.”’
For I have set face my on the city this for harm and not for good [the] utterance of Yahweh in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon it will be given and he will burn it with fire.
11 “Konsa, di a lakay wa Juda a: ‘Tande pawòl SENYÈ a.
And to [the] house of [the] king of Judah hear [the] word of Yahweh.
12 O lakay David, konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Aji ak jistis chak maten. Delivre moun ki te vòlè devan pouvwa a sila ki te oprime l la, pou gwo kòlè Mwen pa sòti deyò kon dife e brile yon jan pou okenn pa ka etenn, akoz mechanste a zak yo.
O house of David thus he says Yahweh judge to the morning justice and deliver [one who] has been robbed from [the] hand of an oppressor lest it should go forth like fire rage my and it will burn and there not [will be one who] extinguishes because of [the] wickedness of (deeds your. *Q(K)*)
13 Gade byen, Mwen kontra ou, O sila ki rete nan ba plèn nan,’ deklare SENYÈ a. ‘Nou menm k ap di: “Se kilès k ap desann kont nou?” Oswa, “Se kilès k ap antre nan abitasyon nou yo?”
Here I [am] against you O inhabitant of the valley O rock of the plain [the] utterance of Yahweh O those [who] say who? will he come down on us and who? will he come in hiding places our.
14 Mwen va pini nou selon rezilta zak nou yo, deklare SENYÈ a: “Epi Mwen va limen yon dife nan forè li ki va devore tout ozanviwon li.’”
And I will visit [judgment] on you according to [the] fruit of deeds your [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will kindle a fire in forest its and it will consume all around it.
