< Jeremi 46 >

1 Sa ki te rive selon pawòl SENYÈ a a Jérémie, pwofèt la, konsènan nasyon yo.
The word of the Lord, that was maad to Jeremye, the profete, ayens hethene men;
2 Pou Égypte: konsènan lame Farawon Neco, wa Égypte la, ki te akote rivyè Euphrate nan Carkemisch, ke Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te bat nèt nan katriyèm ane Jojakim, fis a Josias, wa Juda a.
to Egipt, ayens the oost of Farao Nechao, kyng of Egipt, that was bisidis the flood Eufrates, in Charchamys, whom Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, smoot, in the fourthe yeer of Joachym, sone of Josie, kyng of Juda.
3 “Alinye pwotèj ak boukliye e pwoche pre pou batay la.
Make ye redi scheeld and targat, and go ye forth to batel.
4 Sele cheval, e monte sou do yo; pran pozisyon nou ak kas nan tèt! Netwaye tout lans yo, e mete abiman an bwonz!
Ioyne ye horsis, and stie, ye knyytis; stonde ye in helmes, polische ye speris, clothe ye you in haburiowns.
5 Poukisa mwen te wè sa? Yo pè nèt, y ap rale fè bak, mesye pwisan yo fin bat nèt, e sèl abri yo sove ale san gade dèyè. Se gwo laperèz tout kote!” deklare SENYÈ a.
What therfor? Y siy hem dredeful, and turnynge the backis, the stronge men of hem slayn; and thei fledden swiftli, and bihelden not; drede was on ech side, seith the Lord.
6 Pa kite sila ki pi rapid la sove ale, ni moun pwisan an chape poul li. Nan nò, akote rivyè Euphrate la, yo te glise, chape tonbe.
A swift man schal not fle, and a strong man gesse not hym silf to be saued; at the north, bisidis the flood Eufrates, thei weren ouer comun, and fellen doun.
7 Se kilès sa ki leve tankou rivyè Nil la, tankou rivyè ki gen dlo k ap jayi toupatou yo?
Who is this, that stieth as a flood, and hise swelewis wexen greet as of floodis?
8 Égypte leve tankou rivyè Nil la, menm tankou rivyè ki gen dlo k ap jayi toupatou yo. Li te di: “Mwen va leve kouvri peyi sa a; anverite, Mwen va detwi vil la ak moun ki rete ladann yo.”
Egipte stiede at the licnesse of a flood, and hise wawis schulen be mouyd as floodis; and it schal seie, Y schal stie, and hile the erthe; Y schal leese the citee, and dwelleris therof.
9 An avan, cheval yo! Kouri tankou moun fou, cha lagè yo! Kite moun pwisan yo mache devan: Éthiopie ak Puth ki manevre boukliye a, Lidyen ki manevre e koube banza a.
Stie ye on horsis, and make ye ful out ioie in charis; and stronge men, come forth, Ethiopie and Libie, holdynge scheeld, and Lidii, takynge and schetynge arowis.
10 Paske jou sa a se pou Senyè BONDYE dèzame yo, yon jou vanjans, pou L kapab fè vanjans Li sou lènmi Li yo. Nepe a va devore vin satisfè, Li va bwè kont li nan san yo; paske va genyen yon sakrifis pou Senyè BONDYE dèzame yo, nan peyi nò a, akote Larivyè Euphrate la.
Forsothe that dai of the Lord God of oostis is a dai of veniaunce, that he take veniaunce of hise enemyes; the swerd schal deuoure, and schal be fillid, and schal greetli be fillid with the blood of hem; for whi the slayn sacrifice of the Lord of oostis is in the lond of the north, bisidis the flood Eufrates.
11 Monte Galaad pou jwenn pomad gerizon an, O fi vyèj Égypte la! Anven nou te miltipliye remèd yo; nanpwen gerizon pou nou.
Thou virgyn, the douyter of Egipt, stie in to Galaad, and take medicyn. In veyn thou schalt multiplie medecyns; helthe schal not be to thee.
12 Nasyon yo te tande de bagay wont ou an, e tè a plen ak kri detrès ou; paske yon gran gèrye tonbe sou gran gèye, e toulède tonbe atè ansanm.
Hethene men herden thi schenschipe, and thi yellyng fillide the erthe; for a strong man hurtlide ayens a strong man, and bothe fellen doun togidere.
13 Sa se mesaj ke SENYÈ a te pale a Jérémie, pwofèt la, konsènan avni a wa Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, pou frape peyi Égypte la:
The word which the Lord spak to Jeremye, the profete, on that that Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, was to comynge, and to smytynge the lond of Egipt.
14 “Se pou nou deklare an Égypte e pwoklame nan Migdol; pwoklame tou nan Noph e nan Tachpanès; Di: ‘Pran pozisyon nou e kanpe, paske nepe fin devore sila ki antoure nou yo.’
Telle ye to Egipt, and make ye herd in Magdalo, and sowne it in Memphis, and seie ye in Taphnys, Stonde thou, and make thee redi, for a swerd schal deuoure tho thingis that ben bi thi cumpas.
15 Poukisa mesye pwisan nou yo vin pwostène? Yo pa kanpe akoz SENYÈ a te pouse yo desann.
Whi hath thi strong man wexe rotun? He stood not, for the Lord vndurturnede hym.
16 Li fè anpil tonbe; anverite, yo tonbe youn kont lòt. Yo te di: ‘Kanpe! Annou retounen kote pwòp pèp pa nou, nan peyi natal nou, lwen nepe a sila k ap oprime a.’
He multipliede falleris, and a man felle doun to his neiybore; and thei schulen seie, Rise ye, and turne we ayen to oure puple, and to the lond of oure birthe, fro the face of swerd of the culuer.
17 Yo te kriye la: ‘Farawon, wa Égypte la, pa plis ke yon gwo bri; li te kite tan deziye a fin pase!’
Clepe ye the name of Farao, kyng of Egipt; the tyme hath brouyt noise.
18 “Jan Mwen viv la,” deklare Wa a ki gen kon non Li, SENYÈ dèzame yo, “Anverite, youn ki parèt gran tankou Mòn Thabor pami mòn yo, oswa tankou Carmel akote lanmè a; se konsa lap vini.
Y lyue, seith the kyng, the Lord of oostis is his name; for it schal come as Thabor in hillis, and as Carmele in the see.
19 Prepare valiz ou pou egzil, O fi k ap demere an Égypte, paske Noph va devni yon dezolasyon; li va brile menm, pou l rete vid san moun ladann.
Thou dwelleresse, the douyter of Egipt, make to thee vessels of passyng ouer; for whi Memfis schal be in to wildirnesse, and schal be forsakun vnhabitable.
20 “Égypte se yon gazèl byen bèl, men yon gwo mouch ap vini soti nan nò. Li fin rive.
Egipt is a schapli cow calf, and fair; a prickere fro the north schal come to it.
21 Anplis, sòlda mèsenè etranje nan mitan li yo tankou jenn bèf yo byen angrese, paske yo menm tou te fin vire nèt; yo te sove ale ansanm. Yo pa t kanpe, paske jou malè pa yo fin rive sou yo; lè pinisyon pa yo.
Also the hirid men therof, that liueden as caluys maad fatte in the myddis therof, ben turned, and fledden togidere, and miyten not stonde; for the dai of sleynge of hem schal come on hem, the tyme of the visityng of hem.
22 Son li va soti kon yon sèpan; paske tankou yon lame, yo vini, yo rive kote li ak moun k ap pote rach.
The vois of hem schal sowne as of bras, for thei schulen haste with oost, and with axis thei schulen come to it. As men kittynge doun trees thei kittiden doun the forest therof,
23 “Yo va koupe forè li”, deklare SENYÈ a; anverite, li p ap twouve ankò; paske yo plis pase gwo lame krikèt volan. Fòs kantite yo depase kontwòl.
seith the Lord, which mai not be noumbrid; thei ben multiplied ouer locustis, and no noumbre is in hem.
24 Fi Égypte la ap fè gwo wont; lap livre nan pouvwa moun nan nò yo.”
The douytir of Egipt is schent, and bitakun in to the hond of the puple of the north,
25 SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la di: “Gade byen, Mwen ap pini Amon ki rete Thebes la, Farawon e Égypte ansanm ak dye li yo ak wa li yo, menm Farawon ak sila ki mete konfyans nan li yo.
seide the Lord of oostis, God of Israel. Lo! Y schal visite on the noise of Alisaundre, and on Farao, and on Egipt, and on the goddis therof, and on the kyngis therof, and on hem that tristen in hym.
26 Mwen va livre yo a sila k ap chache touye yo, menm nan men Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan ak nan men chèf li yo. Malgre sa, apre, li va vin gen moun ki rete ladann jan li te ye nan tan pase a.” deklare SENYÈ a.
And Y schal yyue hem in to the hondis of men that seken the lijf of hem, and in to the hondis of Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and in to the hondis of hise seruauntis; and aftir these thingis it schal be enhabitid, as in the formere daies, seith the Lord.
27 Men pou ou menm, O! Jacob, sèvitè Mwen an, pa gen lakrent, ni pa twouble, O Israël! Paske ou wè, Mwen va sove nou soti lwen, e desandan nou yo soti nan peyi kaptivite yo. Jacob va retounen pou rete san twoub, ansekirite, san pèsòn ki pou fè l tranble.
And thou, Jacob, my seruaunt, drede thou not, and Israel, drede thou not; for lo! Y schal make thee saaf fro fer place, and thi seed fro the lond of his caitiftee; and Jacob schal turne ayen, and schal reste, and schal haue prosperite, and noon schal be, that schal make hym aferd.
28 O Jacob, sèvitè Mwen an, pa gen lakrent!” deklare SENYÈ a: “paske, Mwen avèk ou. Paske Mwen va fè fen a tout nasyon kote Mwen te chase ou ale yo. Sepandan, Mwen p ap fè fen a ou menm; men Mwen va korije ou jan sa dwe fèt e Mwen p ap kite ou san pinisyon.”
And Jacob, my seruaunt, nyle thou drede, seith the Lord, for Y am with thee; for Y schal waste alle folkis, to whiche Y castide thee out; but Y schal not waste thee, but Y schal chastise thee in doom, and Y schal not spare thee as innocent.
