Jeremi 28

1 Alò, nan menm ane a, nan kòmansman règn a Sédécias, wa Juda a, nan katriyèm ane, nan senkyèm mwa Hanania, fis a Azzur a, pwofèt ki te sòti nan Gabaon an, te pale ak mwen lakay SENYÈ a, nan prezans a prèt yo e a tout pèp yo. Li te di:

And it came to pass in the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah, the son of Azur the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

2 “Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la, ‘Mwen te kase jouk wa Babylone nan.

Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: “I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Pandan dezan Mwen va fè rive nan plas sa a, tout veso lakay SENYÈ yo, ke Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te pran fè sòti nan plas sa a pou te pote Babylone yo.

Within two full years will I bring again to this place all the vessels of the house of Jehovah, which Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon took from this place, and carried to Babylon.

4 Anplis, Mwen va mennen fè retounen nan plas sa a, Jeconia, fis a Jojakim nan, wa a Juda a ak tout egzile Juda ki te ale Babylone yo,’ deklare SENYÈ a, ‘paske Mwen va kase fado a wa a Babylone nan.’”

And Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the captives of Judah that went to Babylon, will I bring again to this place, saith Jehovah; for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”

5 Answit pwofèt Jérémie te pale ak pwofèt Hanania nan prezans a prèt yo, e nan prezans lan a tout moun ki te kanpe lakay SENYÈ yo,

Then Jeremiah the prophet spake to Hananiah the prophet, in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of Jehovah.

6 epi pwofèt Jérémie te di: “Amen! Ke SENYÈ a fè l konsa. Ke SENYÈ a kapab konfime pawòl ke ou te pale yo, pou fè mennen retounen veso lakay SENYÈ yo, e tout moun ki ekzile yo, sòti Babylone pou antre nan plas sa a.

And Jeremiah the prophet said, Amen! So may Jehovah do! May Jehovah fulfill thy words which thou hast prophesied, and bring back the vessels of the house of Jehovah, and all the captives from Babylon to this place!

7 Malgre sa, tande pawòl sa a ke m prèt pou pale nan tande pa w ak tande a tout pèp la!

Nevertheless, hear now this word, which I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people.

8 Pwofèt ki te avan mwen yo, e avan ou depi nan tan ansyen an, te pwofetize kont anpil peyi e kont gwo wayòm, pou lagè, pou kalamite ak envazyon ensèk ki ta ravaje peyi yo.

The prophets who have been before me and before thee from ancient times have also prophesied against many nations, and against great kingdoms, of war, of calamity, and of pestilence.

9 Pwofèt ki te pwofetize lapè a, lè pwofesi sa a vin rive; alò, pwofèt sa a va vin rekonèt kon yon pwofèt ke SENYÈ te vrèman voye.”

The prophet who prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall he be known as a prophet whom Jehovah hath truly sent.

10 Alò Hanania, pwofèt la, te retire jouk la sou kou Jérémie e te kraze li.

Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and broke it.

11 Hanania te pale nan prezans a tout pèp la e te di: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ‘Menm konsa, avan dezan, Mwen va kase jouk Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, fè l sòti sou kou a tout nasyon yo.’” Alò, pwofèt Jérémie te al fè wout li.

And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: In this manner will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, from the neck of all the nations, within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way.

12 Pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote Jérémie lè Hanania te fin kase jouk a sou kou pwofèt Jérémie an. Li te di:

Then came the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying:

13 “Ale pale ak Hanania e di: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, “Ou te kase jouk ki fèt an bwa yo, men ou fè rive olye de yo, jouk yo ki fèt an fè.”

Go and tell Hananiah, saying: Thou hast broken a yoke of wood, but thou shalt make instead of it a yoke of iron.

14 Paske konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la: “Mwen te mete yon jouk fèt an fè sou kou a tout nasyon sila yo, pou yo ka sèvi Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan; epi yo va sèvi li. Anplis, Mwen te bay li bèt chan yo.”’”

For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: A yoke of iron do I put upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon; and they shall serve him. The beasts of the field also do I give to him.

15 Epi Jérémie, pwofèt la, te di a Hanania, pwofèt la: “Koute koulye a, Hanania, SENYÈ a pa t voye ou e ou te fè pèp sa a kwè nan yon manti.

Jeremiah the prophet said also to Hananiah the prophet: Hear now, Hananiah! Jehovah hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie.

16 Pou sa, se konsa SENYÈ a pale: ‘Gade byen, Mwen prèt pou retire ou sou sifas tè a. Ane sa a, ou va mouri, akoz ou te konseye rebelyon kont SENYÈ a.’”

Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will cast thee off from the face of the earth. This year thou shalt die; for thou hast spoken rebellion against Jehovah.

17 Se konsa Hanania, pwofèt la, te mouri nan menm ane sa a nan setyèm mwa a.

And Hananiah the prophet died in the same year, in the seventh month.
