Jeremi 26
1 Nan kòmansman règn a wa Jojakim nan, fis a Josias la, wa a Juda a, pawòl sa a te sòti nan SENYÈ a:
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, hath this word been from Jehovah, saying:
2 “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Kanpe nan lakou lakay SENYÈ a pou pale ak tout vil Juda a ki te vin adore lakay SENYÈ a'. Bay yo tout pawòl ke M te kòmande ou pou pale avèk yo. Pa manke menm yon mo!
'Thus said Jehovah, Stand thou in the court of the house of Jehovah, and thou hast spoken unto all [those of] the cities of Judah who are coming in to bow themselves in the house of Jehovah, all the words that I have commanded thee to speak unto them, thou dost not diminish a word.
3 Petèt yo va koute e tout moun va vire kite pwòp wout mechan pa yo, pou M ta kapab repanti de malè ke M planifye pou fè rive yo, akoz mechanste a zak yo.’”
If so be they hearken, and turn back each from his evil way, then I have repented concerning the evil that I am thinking of doing to them, because of the evil of their doings.
4 Men sa ou va di yo: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Si nou refize koute Mwen, pou mache nan lalwa ke M te mete devan nou an,
'And thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah, If ye do not hearken unto Me, to walk in My law, that I set before you,
5 pou koute pawòl a sèvitè Mwen yo, pwofèt ke M te voye a nou menm tout tan, tout tan yo, —men nou pa t koute—
To hearken to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I am sending unto you, yea, rising early and sending, and ye have not hearkened,
6 konsa, Mwen va fè kay sila kon Silo e vil sa a, Mwen va fè li vin yon madichon pou tout nasyon sou latè yo.’”
Then I have given up this house as Shiloh, and this city I give up for a reviling to all nations of the earth.'
7 Prèt yo, pwofèt yo ak tout pèp la te tande Jérémie pale pawòl sa yo lakay SENYÈ a.
And the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, hear Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of Jehovah,
8 Lè Jérémie te fin pale tout sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande pale a tout pèp la, prèt yo ak pwofèt yo ak tout pèp la te sezi li. Yo te di: “Fòk ou mouri!
And it cometh to pass, at the completion of Jeremiah's speaking all that Jehovah hath commanded him to speak unto all the people, that the priests, and the prophets, and all the people catch him, saying, Thou dost surely die,
9 Poukisa ou te pwofetize nan non SENYÈ a e te di: ‘Kay sa a va tankou Silo e vil sa a va vin dezète, san moun?’” Konsa, tout pèp la te rasanble antoure Jérémie lakay SENYÈ a.
Wherefore hast thou prophesied in the name of Jehovah, saying, 'As Shiloh this house shall be, and this city is wasted, without inhabitant?' and all the people are assembled unto Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah.
10 Lè ofisye a Juda yo te tande bagay sa yo, yo te vin monte soti lakay a wa a pou rive lakay SENYÈ a, e yo te chita nan antre Pòtay Nèf lakay SENYÈ a.
And the heads of Judah hear these things, and they go up from the house of the king [to] the house of Jehovah, and sit in the opening of the new gate of Jehovah.
11 Epi prèt yo ak pwofèt yo te pale ak ofisye yo ak tout pèp la e te di: “Nonm sa a merite mouri! Li te pwofetize kont vil sila a, jan nou te koute ak pwòp tande nou an.”
And the priests and the prophets speak unto the heads, and unto all the people, saying, 'Judgment of death [is] for this man, for he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your ears.'
12 Konsa, Jérémie te pale ak tout ofisye yo ak tout pèp la. Li te di: “SENYÈ a te voye mwen pou pwofetize kont tout kay sila a, tout pawòl ke nou te tande yo.
And Jeremiah speaketh unto all the heads, and unto all the people, saying, 'Jehovah sent me to prophesy concerning this house, and concerning this city, all the words that ye have heard;
13 Alò, pou sa, korije chemen nou yo ak zèv nou yo, e obeyi a vwa SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an; epi SENYÈ a va chanje lide sou malè ke Li te pwononse kont nou an.
And now, amend your ways, and your doings, and hearken to the voice of Jehovah your God, and Jehovah doth repent concerning the evil that He hath spoken against you.
14 Men pou mwen menm, se nan men nou mwen ye. Fè sa nou pito avè m jan nou wè li bon nan zye nou an.
'And I, lo, I [am] in your hand, do to me as is good and as is right in your eyes;
15 Sèlman, konnen byen ke si nou mete m a lanmò, nou va mennen san inosan vin tonbe sou nou menm, sou vil sa a, ak tout moun ki rete ladan; paske anverite, SENYÈ a te voye mwen kote nou pou pale tout pawòl sa yo nan zòrèy nou.”
Only, know ye certainly, that if ye are putting me to death, surely innocent blood ye are putting on yourselves, and on this city, and on its inhabitants; for truly hath Jehovah sent me unto you to speak in your ears all these words.'
16 Epi ofisye yo ak tout pèp la te di a prèt yo e a pwofèt yo: “Nou p ap pase lòd lanmò pou nonm sa a, paske li te pale nou nan non SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.”
And the heads and all the people say unto the priests and unto the prophets, 'There is not for this man a judgment of death, for in the name of Jehovah our God he hath spoken unto us.'
17 Epi kèk nan ansyen peyi a te leve e te pale a tout asanble a pèp la. Yo te di:
And certain of the elders of the land rise up, and speak unto all the assembly of the people, saying,
18 “Michée, moun Moréscheth la, te pwofetize nan tan Ézéchias, wa Juda a. Li te pale a tout pèp Juda a e te di: ‘Konsa SENYÈ dèzame yo te pale: “Sion va raboure kon yon chan, Jérusalem va vin yon pil mazi e mòn kay la kon pwent ki piwo nan yon forè.”
'Micah the Morashtite hath been prophesying in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and he saith unto all the people of Judah, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Zion is a plowed field, and Jerusalem is heaps, And the mountain of the house is for high places of a forest.
19 “‘Èske Ézéchias, wa Juda a, ak tout Juda te mete l a lanmò? Èske li pa t gen lakrent SENYÈ a, chache favè SENYÈ a, e SENYÈ a te chanje lide Li sou malè ke li te pwononse kont yo a? Men nou ap komèt yon gwo mal kont pwòp tèt pa nou.’”
'Put him at all to death did Hezekiah king of Judah, and all Judah? Did he not fear Jehovah? yea, he appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and Jehovah repenteth concerning the evil that He spake against them; and we are doing great evil against our souls.
20 Anverite, te gen yon nonm ki te pwofetize nan non SENYÈ a, Urie, fis a Schemaeja a, a Kirjath-Jearim. Li te pwofetize kont vil sa a e kont peyi sa a, pawòl parèy a tout sa a Jérémie yo.
'And also there hath been a man prophesying in the name of Jehovah, Urijah son of Shemaiah, of Kirjath-Jearim, and he prophesieth against this city, and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah,
21 Lè wa Jojakim ak tout mesye pwisan pa li yo ak tout ofisye yo te tande pawòl li yo, alò, wa a te eseye mete l a lanmò. Men Urie te tande. Li te krent e li te sove ale rive an Égypte.
And the king Jehoiakim, and all his mighty ones, and all the heads, hear his words, and the king seeketh to put him to death, and Urijah heareth, and feareth, and fleeth, and goeth in to Egypt.
22 Konsa, wa Jojakim te voye mesye li yo an Égypte: Elnathan, fis a Acbor a e kèk lòt mesye avèk li te ale antre an Égypte.
And the king Jehoiakim sendeth men to Egypt — Elnathan son of Achbor, and men with him unto Egypt —
23 Epi yo te mennen Urie soti an Égypte, te fè l rive kote wa Jojakim ki te touye l ak yon nepe e te jete kadav li nan simityè endijan yo.
And they bring out Urijah from Egypt, and bring him in unto the king Jehoiakim, and he smiteth him with a sword, and casteth his corpse unto the graves of the sons of the people.'
24 Men, men Achikam la, fis a Schaphan nan, te avèk Jérémie, ki te fè l pa rive nan men a pèp la pou mete l a lanmò.
Only, the hand of Ahikam son of Shaphan hath been with Jeremiah so as not to give him up into the hand of the people to put him to death.
