Jeremi 33
1 Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote Jérémie yon dezyèm fwa, pandan li te toujou nan prizon nan lakou gad la. Li te di:
Moreover the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
2 “Konsa pale SENYÈ a ki te fè tè a, SENYÈ a ki te fòme li pou etabli li a—SENYÈ a se non Li.
Thus says Jehovah who does it, Jehovah who forms it to establish it; Jehovah is his name:
3 ‘Rele Mwen, Mwen va reponn ou e Mwen va di ou gwo bagay pwisan ke ou pa t janm konnen.’
Call to me, and I will answer thee, and will show thee great things, and difficult, which thou know not.
4 Paske konsa pale SENYÈ Israël la konsènan kay nan vil sa yo, e konsènan kay a wa a Juda k ap vin kraze pou fè yon ranpa kont balkon tè syèj yo e kont nepe a,
For thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to defend against the mounds and against the sword,
5 ‘pandan y ap vini pou goumen kont Kaldeyen yo e pou plen yo ak kadav moun ke M te masakre nan kòlè Mwen ak gwo kòlè Mwen yo, epi Mwen te kache figi M kont vil sa a, akoz tout mechanste yo,
while men come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city:
6 ‘gade byen, Mwen va mennen kote li lasante ak gerizon, e Mwen va geri yo. Epi Mwen va montre yo lapè ak verite an abondans.
Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them. And I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
7 Mwen va restore bonè a Juda ak bonè a Israël, e Mwen va rebati yo jan yo te ye o kòmansman an.
And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them as at the first.
8 Mwen va netwaye yo de tout inikite avèk sila yo te peche kont Mwen yo. Mwen va padone tout inikite pa sila yo te peche kont Mwen yo e pa sila yo te fè transgresyon kont Mwen yo.
And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against me. And I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against me, and by which they have transgressed against me.
9 Vil sa va pou Mwen yon non lajwa, lwanj ak laglwa devan tout nasyon latè yo, ki va tande afè tout byen ke M fè pou yo. Yo va gen lakrent e tranble akoz tout byen ak tout lapè ke M fè pou li.’”
And this city shall be to me for a name of joy, for a praise and for a glory, before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do to them, and shall fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I procure to it.
10 Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Yon fwa ankò yo va tande nan plas sa a, sou sa ou w ap di a: ‘Sa se yon dezè, san moun e san bèt, sa vle di nan vil a Juda yo ak ri Jérusalem yo, ki dezole, san moun e san pèsòn ni bèt pou rete ladann,’
Thus says Jehovah: Yet again there shall be heard in this place-of which ye say, It is waste, without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without beast-
11 vwa lajwa a ak vwa kè kontan, vwa a yon jennonm ki fenk marye e vwa a jenn fi maryaj la, vwa a sila k ap di yo: ‘Bay remèsiman a SENYÈ dèzame yo, paske SENYÈ a bon, paske lanmou dous Li dire jis pou tout tan’; k ap pote yon ofrann remèsiman antre lakay SENYÈ a. Paske Mwen va restore bonè a peyi a jan li te ye oparavan an,” pale SENYÈ a.
the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, Give thanks to Jehovah of hosts, for Jehovah is good, for his loving kindness is forever, and of those who bring thanksgiving into the house of Jehovah. For I will cause the captivity of the land to return as at the first, says Jehovah.
12 Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: “Va ankò gen nan plas sa a ki dezè, ki san moun, ni bèt e nan tout vil li yo, yon kote pou bèje k ap okipe bann mouton yo rete.
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Yet again there shall be in this place, which is waste, without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
13 Nan vil a peyi kolin yo, nan vil a ba plèn yo, nan vil a dezè yo, nan peyi Benjamin an, nan andwa a Jérusalem yo e nan vil a Juda yo, bann mouton yo va ankò pase anba men a sila k ap konte yo a,” pale SENYÈ a.
In the cities of the hill-country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the South, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks shall again pass under the hands of him who numbers them, says Jehovah.
14 “Gade byen, jou yo ap vini”, deklare SENYÈ a: “Lè Mwen va akonpli bon pawòl la Mwen te pale konsènan lakay Israël la ak lakay Juda a.
Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
15 “Nan jou sa yo e nan lè sa a, Mwen va fè yon Branch ladwati a David pete vin parèt. Li va egzekite lajistis ak ladwati sou tout latè.
In those days, and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David, and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
16 Nan jou sa yo, Juda va vin sove e Jérusalem va ansekirite. Men non pa sila li va rele a: SENYÈ a se ladwati nou.”
In those days Judah shall be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely. And this is the name whereby she shall be called: Jehovah our righteousness.
17 “Paske, se konsa SENYÈ a pale: ‘David p ap janm manke yon nonm pou chita sou twòn lakay Israël la.
For thus says Jehovah: David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel,
18 Konsa, prèt Levit yo p ap janm manke yon nonm devan Mwen, pou ofri ofrann brile, pou brile ofrann sereyal e pou prepare sakrifis yo tout tan san rete.’”
neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
19 Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote Jérémie e te di:
And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
20 “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Si ou ka kraze akò Mwen an pou jounen an, e akò Mwen an pou nwit lan, pou jou sa a ak nwit sa a pa rive nan lè deziye yo,
Thus says Jehovah: If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, so that there shall not be day and night in their season,
21 alò, konsa sèlman, akò Mwen an kab kraze avèk David, Sèvitè Mwen an, pou li pa gen yon fis pou renye sou twòn li an e avèk prèt Levit yo, pou ministè pa m yo.
then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he shall not have a son to reign upon his throne, and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
22 Tankou lame syèl la pa ka konte e sab lanmè a pa ka mezire, konsa Mwen va miltipliye desandan a David yo, sèvitè Mwen an ak Levit ki sèvi Mwen yo.’”
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured, so I will multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister to me.
23 Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Jérémie. Li te di:
And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
24 “Pa okipe bagay pèp sa a te pale, lè yo di: ‘De fanmi ke SENYÈ a te chwazi yo, Li te fin rejte yo’? Konsa, yo meprize pèp Mwen an; yo pa menm ankò tankou yon nasyon nan zye yo.
Consider thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which Jehovah chose, he has cast them off? Thus they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
25 Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Si akò Mwen an pou lajounen ak lannwit pa kanpe, epi aranjman ki òdone nan syèl yo pa t fèt pa Mwen menm,
Thus says Jehovah: If my covenant of day and night stand not, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,
26 alò, sèl konsa, Mwen ta rejte desandan a Jacob yo ak David, sèvitè Mwen an e pa chwazi pami desandan li yo chèf sou desandan a Abraham, Issac ak Jacob yo. Men Mwen va restore bonè pa yo, e Mwen va genyen mizerikòd pou yo.’”
then I will also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will cause their captivity to return, and will have mercy on them.
