Jeremi 24

1 Pawòl SENYÈ a te demontre m, epi, gade byen, de panyen fig etranje ki te plase devan tanp SENYÈ a, lè Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te fin retire Jeconia, fis a Jojakim nan, wa Juda a, dirijan a Juda yo ak gwo atizan ak bòs fòjewon Jérusalem yo pou te mennen yo Babylone.

The Lord schewide to me, and lo! twei panyeris ful of figys weren set bifor the temple of the Lord, aftir that Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, translatide Jeconye, the sone of Joachym, the kyng of Juda, and the princes of hym, and a sutil crafti man, and a goldsmith fro Jerusalem, and brouyte hem in to Babiloyne.

2 Yon panyen te gen bon fig etranje yo, tankou nan premye rekòlt yo, e lòt panyen an te gen move fig ki pa t ka manje akoz yo te pouri.

And o panyere hadde ful good figis, as figis of the firste tyme ben wont to be; and o panyere hadde ful yuel figis, that miyten not be etun, for tho weren yuel figis.

3 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di m: “Kisa ou wè, Jérémie?” Mwen te reponn: “Fig etranje yo, bon fig etranje yo, byen bon, ak move fig etranje yo, byen move, ki pa ka manje akoz yo pouri.”

And the Lord seide to me, Jeremye, what thing seest thou? And Y seide, Figis, goode figis, ful goode, and yuele figis, ful yuele, that moun not be etun, for tho ben yuele figis.

4 Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:

And the word of the Lord was maad to me,

5 “Konsa pale SENYÈ Israël a ‘Tankou bon fig etranje yo, konsa Mwen va konsidere kon bon, kaptif a Juda yo, ke m te voye sòti nan plas sa a pou antre nan peyi Kaldeyen yo.

and seide, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, As these figis ben goode, so Y schal knowe the transmygracioun of Juda, which I sente out fro this place in to the lond of Caldeis, in to good.

6 Paske Mwen va fikse zye M sou yo pou byen e Mwen va mennen yo ankò nan peyi sa a. Mwen va bati yo, e Mwen p ap rale fè yo desann. Mwen va plante yo e Mwen p ap rache yo.

And Y schal sette myn iyen on hem to plese, and Y schal brynge hem ayen in to this lond; and Y schal bilde hem, and Y schal not distrie hem; and Y schal plaunte hem, and Y schal not drawe vp bi the roote.

7 Mwen va bay yo yon kè pou rekonèt Mwen, ke se Mwen ki SENYÈ a. Konsa, yo va pèp Mwen e Mwen va Bondye yo, paske yo va retounen kote Mwen ak tout kè yo.’”

And Y schal yyue to hem an herte, that thei knowe me, for Y am the Lord; and thei schulen be in to a puple to me, and Y schal be in to God to hem, for thei schulen turne ayen to me in al her herte.

8 “Men tankou move fig etranje ki pa ka manje akoz yo pouri yo—anverite, konsa”, pale SENYÈ a—“Konsa Mwen va abandone Sédécias, wa Juda a, dirijan li yo, retay Jérusalem ki rete nan peyi sa a, ak sila ki rete nan peyi Égypte yo.

And as the worste figis ben, that moun not be etun, for tho ben yuele figis, the Lord seith these thingis, So Y schal yyue Sedechie, the kyng of Juda, and the princes of hym, and other men of Jerusalem, that dwelliden in this citee, and that dwellen in the lond of Egipt.

9 Mwen va fè yo vin yon gwo laperèz ak yon mal pou tout wayòm latè yo, kon repwòch, yon vye mo, yon rizib, e yon madichon tout kote ke M gaye yo.

And Y schal yyue hem into trauelyng and turment in alle rewmes of erthe, in to schenschipe, and in to parable, and in to a prouerbe, and in to cursyng, in alle places to whiche Y castide hem out.

10 Mwen va voye nepe ak gwo grangou, maladi ak bèt pou ravaje chan yo jiskaske yo fin detwi soti nan peyi ke M te bay a yo menm nan ak papa zansèt yo.”

And Y schal sende in hem a swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, til thei be wastid fro the lond which Y yaf to hem, and to the fadris of hem.
