< Jeremi 38 >

1 Alò, Schephathia, fis a Mattan e Guedalia, fis a Paschhur, fis a Malkija, te tande pawòl ke Jérémie t ap pale a tout pèp la e t ap di:
Forsothe Safacie, sone of Nathan, and Jedelie, sone of Fassur, and Jothal, sone of Selemye, and Fassour, sone of Melchie, herden the wordis whiche Jeremye spak to al the puple,
2 “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Sila ki rete nan vil sa a va mouri ak nepe, ak gwo grangou e ak gwo ravaj ak maladi, men sila ki sòti pou rive anvè Kaldeyen yo va viv. Li va gen pwòp lavi l kon pwòp benefis pa l e li va viv.’
`and seide, The Lord seith these thingis, Who euer dwellith in this citee, schal die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence; but he that flieth to Caldeis, shal lyue, and his soule schal be hool and lyuynge.
3 Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Vil sa a va anverite livre nan men a wa Babylone nan, e li va kaptire l.’”
The Lord seith these thingis, This citee to be bitakun schal be bitakun in to the hond of the oost of the kyng of Babiloyne, and he schal take it.
4 Epi ofisye yo te di a wa a: “Koulye a, kite nonm sa a vin mete a lanmò, konsi l ap dekouraje mesye lagè ki rete nan vil sa a, ak tout pèp la lè l pale pawòl konsa avèk yo; paske nonm sa a p ap chache byen a pèp sa a, men malè yo.”
And the princes seiden to the kyng, We preien, that this man be slayn; for of bifore castyng he discoumfortith the hondis of men werriours, that dwelliden in this citee, and the hondis of al the puple, and spekith to hem bi alle these wordis. For whi this man sekith not pees to this puple, but yuel.
5 Konsa, Wa Sédécias te di: “Gade byen, li nan men nou; paske wa a p ap ka fè anyen kont nou menm.”
And kyng Sedechie seide, Lo! he is in youre hondis, for it is not leueful that the kyng denye ony thing to you.
6 Epi yo te pran Jérémie e te jete li nan sitèn Malkija, fis a wa a, ki te nan lakou kay gad la. Yo te fè Jérémie desann ladann ak kòd yo. Alò, nan sitèn nan, pa t gen dlo, men sèlman labou, e Jérémie te fonse antre nan labou a.
Therfor thei token Jeremye, and castiden hym doun in to the lake of Elchie, sone of Amalech, which was in the porche of the prisoun; and thei senten doun Jeremye bi cordis in to the lake, wherynne was no watir, but fen; therfor Jeremye yede doun in to the filthe.
7 Men Ébed Mélec, Etyopyen an, yon enik, pandan li te lakay wa a, te tande ke yo te mete Jérémie nan sitèn nan. Alò, wa a te chita nan antre Pòtay Benjamin an.
Forsothe Abdemalech Ethiopien, a chast man and oneste, herde, that was in the kyngis hous, that thei hadden sent Jeremye in to the lake; sotheli the king sat in the yate of Beniamyn.
8 Epi Ébed-Mélec te sòti nan palè a wa a pou pale ak wa a. Li te di:
And Abdemalech yede out of the kyngis hous, and spak to the kyng,
9 “Mèt mwen, wa a, mesye sila yo te aji ak mechanste nan tout sa yo te fè Jérémie yo, pwofèt ki te jete nan sitèn nan. Li va mouri kote li ye akoz gwo grangou, paske nanpwen pen ankò nan vil la.”
and seide, My lord the kyng, these men diden yuele alle thingis, what euer thingis thei diden ayens Jeremye, the profete, sendynge hym in to the lake, that he die there for hungur; for whi looues ben no more in the citee.
10 Epi wa a te kòmande Ébed-Mélec, Etyopyen an, e te di l: “Pran trant mesye soti isit la anba otorite ou e mennen fè monte Jérémie soti nan sitèn nan avan l mouri.”
Therfor the kyng comaundide to Abdemelech Ethiopien, and seide, Take with thee thretti men fro hennus, and reise thou Jeremye, the profete, fro the lake, bifor that he die.
11 Konsa, Ébed-Mélec te pran mesye yo anba otorite li, e te antre nan palè a wa a, yon kote pi ba depo a. Li te pran la vye rad epwize ak vye twal epwize e te fè yo desann sou kòd, antre nan pwi a, rive kote Jérémie.
Therfor whanne Abdemelech hadde take men with hym, he entride in to the hous of the kyng, that was vndur the celer; and he took fro thennus elde clothis, and elde ragges, that weren rotun; and he sente tho doun to Jeremye, in to the lake, bi cordis.
12 Konsa, Ébed-Mélec, Etyopyen an te di a Jérémie: “Alò, mete rad epwize sa yo ak twal yo anba bra ou, anba kòd yo.” Jérémie te fè l.
And Abdemelech Ethiopien seide to Jeremye, Putte thou elde clothis, and these to-rent and rotun thingis vndur the cubit of thin hondis, and on the cordis. Therfor Jeremye dide so.
13 Konsa, yo te rale Jérémie fè l monte leve sòti nan sitèn nan, e Jérémie te rete nan lakou kay gad la.
And thei drowen out Jeremye with cordis, and ledden hym out of the lake. Forsothe Jeremye dwellide in the porche of the prisoun.
14 Epi Wa Sédécias te voye fè yo mennen Jérémie, pwofèt la, kote li nan twazyèm antre ki nan kay SENYÈ a; epi wa a te di a Jérémie: “Mwen ap mande ou yon bagay. Pa kache anyen devan m.”
And kyng Sedechie sente, and took hym Jeremye, the profete, at the thridde dore that was in the hous of the Lord. And the kyng seide to Jeremye, Y axe of thee a word; hide thou not ony thing fro me.
15 Epi Jérémie te reponn a Sédécias: “Si mwen pale ou, anverite, ou p ap mete m a lanmò? Anplis, menm si m bay ou konsèy, ou p ap koute mwen.”
Forsothe Jeremye seide to Sedechie, If Y telle to thee, whether thou schalt not sle me? And if Y yyue councel to thee, thou schalt not here me.
16 Men wa Sédécias te sèmante a Jérémie an sekrè. Li te di: “Kon SENYÈ a viv la, ki te fè nanm nou, anverite, mwen p ap mete ou a lanmò, ni mwen p ap livre ou nan men a mesye sila k ap chache pran lavi ou yo.”
Therfor Sedechie the king swoor to Jeremye priueli, and seide, The Lord lyueth, that maad to vs this soule, Y schal not sle thee, and Y schal not bitake thee in to the hondis of these men, that seken thi lijf.
17 Epi Jérémie te di a Sédécias: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la; ‘Si, anverite, ou va sòti deyò pou vin soumèt a wa Babylone nan; alò, ou va viv, vil sa a p ap brile ak dife e ou menm ak lakay ou va viv.
And Jeremye seide to Sedechie, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, If thou goest forth, and goest out to the princes of the kyng of Babiloyne, thi soule schal lyue, and this citee schal not be brent with fier, and thou schalt be saaf, thou and thin hous.
18 Men si ou pa ale deyò kote ofisye a wa Babylone yo, alò, vil sa va livre nan men a Kaldeyen yo. Epi yo va brile li ak dife e ou menm, ou p ap chape nan men yo.’”
Forsothe if thou goest not out to the princes of the kyng of Babiloyne, this citee schal be bitakun in to the hondis of Caldeis; and thei schulen brenne it with fier, and thou schalt not ascape fro the hond of hem.
19 Epi Wa Sédécias te reponn a Jérémie: “Mwen krent Jwif ki te janbe kote Kaldeyen yo, paske yo kapab petèt livre mwen nan men yo, e yo va abize m.”
And kyng Sedechie seide to Jeremye, Y am angwischid for the Jewis that fledden ouer to Caldeis, lest perauenture Y be bitakun in to the hondis of hem, and thei scorne me.
20 Men Jérémie te di: “Yo p ap livre ou nan men yo. Souple, obeyi SENYÈ a nan sa ke m ap di ou a, pou l ka ale byen pou ou, e pou ou kapab viv.
Forsothe Jeremye answeride, and seide to hym, Thei schulen not bitake thee; Y biseche, here thou the vois of the Lord, which Y schal speke to thee, and it schal be wel to thee, and thi soule schal lyue.
21 Men si ou kontinye refize ale deyò, men pawòl ke SENYÈ a te montre m nan:
That if thou wolt not go out, this is the word which the Lord schewide to me, Lo!
22 Alò, gade byen, tout fanm ki te rete nan palè wa Juda a, va mennen deyò kote prens a wa Babylone yo; epi fanm sa yo va di: “Pwòch zanmi ou yo te egare ou e te vin domine sou ou; pandan pye ou te kole nan labou a, yo te vire kite ou.”
alle the wymmen, that weren left in the hous of the kyng of Juda, schulen be led out to the princes of the kyng of Babiloyne; and tho wymmen schulen seie, Thi pesible men disseyueden thee, and hadden the maistrye ayens thee; thei drenchiden thee in filthe, and thi feet in slidirnesse, and yeden awei fro thee.
23 Anplis, yo va mennen deyò tout madanm ou yo ak fis ou yo devan Kaldeyen yo, e ou menm, ou p ap ka chape nan men yo, men ou va sezi pa men wa Babylone nan e vil sa a va brile ak dife.’”
And alle thi wyues and thi sones schulen be led out to Caldeis, and thou schalt not ascape the hondis of hem; but thou schalt be bitakun in to the hondis of the kyng of Babiloyne, and he schal brenne this citee bi fier.
24 Epi Sédécias te di a Jérémie: “Pa kite pèsòn konnen pawòl sa yo, e ou p ap mouri.
Therfore Sedechie seide to Jeremye, No man wite these wordis, and thou schalt not die.
25 Men si ofisye yo tande ke mwen te pale avèk ou, te vin rekonèt ou e di ou: ‘Pale a nou sa ke ou te di wa a, sa ke wa a te di ou a; pa kache sa devan nou e nou p ap mete ou a lanmò,’
Sotheli if the princes heren, that Y spak with thee, and comen to thee, and seien to thee, Schewe thou to vs what thou spakest with the kyng, hide thou not fro vs, and we schulen not sle thee; and what the kyng spak with thee,
26 alò, ou gen pou di yo: ‘Mwen t ap prezante siplikasyon mwen yo devan wa a, pou l pa fè m retounen lakay Jonathan pou m pa ta mouri la.’”
thou schalt seie to hem, Knelyngli Y puttide forth my preiris bifore the kyng, that he schulde not comaunde me to be led ayen in to the hous of Jonathan, and Y schulde die there.
27 Epi tout ofisye yo te vin kote Jérémie pou te kesyone li. Pou sa, li te reponn yo selon pawòl ke wa a te kòmande yo. Epi yo te sispann pale ak li, konsi konvèsasyon an pa t koute pa okenn moun.
Therfor alle the princes camen to Jeremye, and axiden hym; and he spak to hem bi alle the wordis whiche the kyng hadde comaundid to hym, and thei ceessiden fro hym; for whi no thing was herd.
28 Konsa, Jérémie te rete nan lakou kay gad yo jis rive jou ke Jérusalem te vin kaptire a.
Therfor Jeremye dwellide in the porche of the prisoun, til to the dai wherynne Jerusalem was takun; and it was don, that Jerusalem schulde be takun.
