Jeremi 49
1 Konsènan fis a Ammon yo. Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Èske Israël pa gen fis? Oswa èske li pa gen eritye? Alò poukisa Malcom te pran posesyon sou Gad, e se pèp li ki vin rete nan vil pa yo?
Concerning the sons of Ammon: “Thus said YHWH: Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why has Malcam possessed Gad, And his people have dwelt in its cities?
2 Pou sa, gade byen, jou yo ap vini”, deklare SENYÈ a: “ke Mwen va fè yon twonpèt fè son lagè kont Rabbath, fis a Ammon yo; epi li va devni pil dezole, e vil li yo va limen ak dife. Konsa, Israël va pran posesyon de sila ki posede l yo,” pale SENYÈ a.
Therefore, behold, days are coming, A declaration of YHWH, And I have sounded a shout of battle in Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, And it has been for a heap—a desolation, And her daughters are burned with fire, And Israel has succeeded its heirs, said YHWH.
3 “Rele anmwey, O Hesbon! Paske Aï fin detwi! Kriye fò, O fi a Rabbath yo! Mare senti nou ak twal sak ak gwo kri e kouri fè ale retou anndan miray yo; paske Malcom va ale an egzil ansanm ak prèt li yo ak prens yo.
Howl, Heshbon, for Ai is spoiled, Cry, daughters of Rabbah, gird on sackcloth, Lament, and go to and fro by the hedges, For Malcam goes into captivity, His priests and his princes together.
4 Pouki sa ou ògeye pou vale yo! Vale yo kap koule, O fi ki chite fè bak, ki plase konfyans li nan trezò li yo? E k ap di: ‘Kilès ki va vini kont mwen?’
Why do you boast yourself in valleys? Your valley is flowing, O backsliding daughter, Who is trusting in her treasures: Who comes to me?
5 Gade byen, m ap fè gwo laperèz rive sou ou,” deklare Senyè BONDYE dèzame yo: “Soti nan tout kote ki antoure ou yo; epi nou chak va chase sòti tèt devan, san pèsòn ki pou rasanble sila ki gaye yo.
Behold, I am bringing fear in on you, A declaration of Lord YHWH of Hosts, From all around you, And you have each been driven out before it, And there is no gatherer of the wandering.
6 “Men apre, Mwen va restore fòtin a fis a Ammon yo,” deklare SENYÈ a.
And after this I return the captivity of the sons of Ammon, A declaration of YHWH.”
7 Konsènan Édom. Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: “Èske pa gen sajès ankò nan Théman? Èske tout konsèy a sila ki pridan yo fin pèdi? Èske sajès yo vin pouri?
Concerning Edom: “Thus said YHWH of Hosts: Is wisdom no longer in Teman? Has counsel perished from the intelligent? Has their wisdom vanished?
8 Chape poul ou, retounen, rete nan pwofondè yo, O sila ki rete Dedan yo! Paske Mwen va mennen dezas Ésaü a sou li nan lè M ap pini li a.
Flee, turn, go deep to dwell, you inhabitants of Dedan, For I brought the calamity of Esau on him, The time I inspected him.
9 Si sila k ap ranmase rezen yo te vin kote ou, èske yo pa t ap kite kèk grenn fwi tonbe atè? Si yon vòlè te vini lannwit, yo ta vole sèlman kont yo pou yo ta jwenn ase.
If gatherers have come to you, They do not leave gleanings, If thieves in the night, They have destroyed their sufficiency!
10 Men Mwen te rete rad sou Ésaü. Mwen te dekouvri kote kache li yo jiskaske li pa t ka kache menm. Desandan li yo, moun fanmi li yo, vwazen li yo ak li menm pa egziste menm ankò.
For I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, And he is not able to be hidden, Spoiled [is] his seed, and his brothers, And his neighbors, and he is not.
11 Kite òfelen ou yo dèyè; Mwen va konsève yo. Kite vèv ou yo mete konfyans yo nan Mwen.”
Leave your orphans—I keep alive, And your widows—trust on Me,
12 Paske konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, sila ki pa t kondane pou bwè tas yo va, anverite, bwè l, e èske se ou sèl k ap epanye? Nou p ap epanye, men anverite, nou va bwè l.
For thus said YHWH: They whose judgment is not to drink of the cup, Do certainly drink, And you [are] he that is entirely acquitted! You are not acquitted, for you certainly drink.
13 Paske Mwen te sèmante pa Mwen menm”, deklare SENYÈ a: “ke Botsra va devni yon objè degoutan, yon repwòch, yon pil mazi kraze ak yon malediksyon. Tout vil li yo va vin pil mazi.”
For I have sworn by Myself, A declaration of YHWH, That for a desolation, for a reproach, For a dry place, and for a reviling—is Bozrah, And all her cities are for continuous ruins.
14 Mwen te tande yon mesaj soti nan SENYÈ a e yon mesaje vin voye pami tout nasyon yo, t ap di: “Rasanble nou ansanm. Vin kont li! Leve pou batay!”
I have heard a report from YHWH, And an ambassador is sent among nations, Gather yourselves and come in against her, And rise for battle.
15 “Paske gade byen, Mwen te fè nou piti pami nasyon yo, meprize pami lòm.
For behold, I have made you little among nations, Despised among men.
16 Men pou laperèz a ou menm, awogans a kè ou te twonpe ou; ou menm ki rete nan twou wòch yo, ki okipe wotè a kolin nan. Malgre ou fè nich ou wo tankou èg, M ap rale ou desann soti la,” deklare SENYÈ a.
Your terribleness has lifted you up, The pride of your heart, O dweller in clefts of the rock, Holding the high place of the height, For you make your nest high as an eagle, From there I bring you down, A declaration of YHWH.
17 “Édom va devni yon objè degoutan; chak moun ki pase bò kote li va etone, e va sifle kon koulèv sou tout blesi li yo.
And Edom has been for a desolation, Everyone passing by her is astonished, And hisses because of all her plagues.
18 Tankou boulvèsman Sodome ak Gomorrhe ak vwazen li yo”, di SENYÈ a: “pèsòn p ap viv la, ni p ap gen youn nan fis a lòm ki rete la.
As the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, And its neighbors, said YHWH, No one dwells there, Nor does a son of man sojourn in her.
19 “Gade byen, youn va monte kon yon lyon ki soti nan rakbwa Jourdain an kont yon patiraj ki tèlman byen wouze; pou yon moman, mwen va fè l kouri kite li e nenpòt moun ki deziye, Mwen va bay li pouvwa sou li. Paske se kilès ki tankou Mwen menm? E se kilès k ap voye pwosè vèbal tribinal ban Mwen? Alò, se kilès ki bèje ki ka kanpe devan Mwen?”
Behold, he comes up as a lion, Because of the rising of the Jordan, To the enduring habitation, But I cause to rest, I cause him to run from off her, And who is chosen? I lay a charge concerning her, For who is like Me? And who convenes Me? And who [is] this shepherd who stands before Me?
20 Pou sa, koute plan ke SENYÈ a fòme kont Édom ak objektif ke Li te fòme kont moun ki rete Théman yo: Anverite, yo va trennen yo deyò, menm pi piti nan bann mouton an. Anverite, Li va fè patiraj yo vin dezole akoz de yo menm.
Therefore, hear the counsel of YHWH, That He has counseled concerning Edom, And His plans that He has devised Concerning the inhabitants of Teman: Do little ones of the flock not drag them out, Does He not make their habitation desolate?
21 Latè te souke akoz bri chit yo. Gen yon gwo kri anmwey! Bri li te rive jis nan Lamè Wouj.
The earth has shaken from the noise of their fall, The cry—its voice is heard at the Sea of Suph.
22 Gade byen, Li va monte, desann kon yon èg e lonje zèl li kont Botsra. Kè a moun pwisan yo va tankou kè a yon fanm k ap pouse pitit.
Behold, He comes up as an eagle, and flies, And He spreads His wings over Bozrah, And the heart of the mighty of Edom has been in that day, As the heart of a travailing woman.”
23 Konsènan Damas. “Hamath ak Arpad fè wont nèt, paske yo te resevwa move nouvèl. Yo dekouraje. Kouraj yo ba nèt. Gen enkyetid bò lanmè a; li pa ka kalme.
Concerning Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad have been ashamed, For they have heard an evil report, They have been melted, sorrow [is] in the sea, It is not able to be quiet.
24 Damas vin enpwisan nèt; li te vire sove ale, e gwo laperèz fin sezi li. Gwo doulè ak sezisman pran l tankou yon fanm k ap akouche.
Damascus has been feeble, She turned to flee, and fear strengthened her, Distress and pangs have seized her, as a travailing woman.
25 Ki jan vil lwanj Mwen an pa vin dezète, vil lajwa Mwen an!
How it is not left—the city of praise, The city of My joy!
26 Konsa, jennonm pa l yo va tonbe nan ri li yo e tout mesye lagè yo va tonbe an silans nan jou sa a,” deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo.
Therefore her young men fall in her broad places, And all the men of war are cut off in that day, A declaration of YHWH of Hosts.
27 Mwen va mete dife nan miray Damas lan e li va devore tou bèl palè Ben-hadad yo.
And I have kindled a fire against the wall of Damascus, And it consumed palaces of Ben-Hadad!”
28 Konsènan Kédar ak wayòm a Hatsor yo, ke Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te pran nan batay. Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Leve monte Kédar e detwi mesye nan lès yo.
Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has struck: “Thus said YHWH: Arise, go up to Kedar, And spoil the sons of the east.
29 Yo va pran tant yo ak bann mouton yo; yo va pote pou kont yo tout rido tant yo, tout byen yo ak tout chamo yo e yo va rele a youn lòt: ‘Gwo laperèz tout kote!’
They take their tents and their flock, Their curtains, and all their vessels, And they carry away their camels for themselves, And they called concerning them, Fear [is] all around.
30 “Kouri, sove ale! Rete nan pwofondè yo, o pèp Hatsor a”, deklare SENYÈ a: “Paske Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te pran konsey kont nou, e te fome yon plan kont nou.
Flee, bemoan mightily, go deep to dwell, You inhabitants of Hazor—a declaration of YHWH, For Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has given counsel against you, Indeed, he devises a scheme against them.
31 Leve monte kont yon nasyon ki alèz, ki viv ansekirite,” deklare SENYÈ a: “Li pa gen pòtay, ni fè fòje; yo rete pou kont yo.”
Rise, go up to a nation at rest, Dwelling confidently, a declaration of YHWH, It has no double gates nor bar, They dwell alone.
32 Chamo pa yo va devni piyaj, gran kantite bèt yo va sèvi kon bagay sòlda pran, Mwen va gaye bay tout van yo a sila ki koupe kwen cheve yo; e Mwen va mennen sou yo gwo dezas ki sòti tout kote,” deklare SENYÈ a.
And their camels have been for a prey, And the multitude of their livestock for a spoil, And I have scattered them to every wind, Who cut off the corner [of the beard], And from all its passages I bring in their calamity, A declaration of YHWH.
33 “Hatsor va vin yon kote pou chen mawon, yon kote dezole jis pou tout tan. P ap gen moun ki rete la, ni yon grenn nan fis a lòm p ap rete ladann.”
And Hazor has been for a habitation of dragons, A desolation for all time, No one dwells there, nor does a son of man sojourn in it!”
34 Sa ki te sòti kon pawòl SENYÈ a konsènan Élam, nan kòmansman règn a Sédécias, wa Juda a, t ap di:
That which has been the word of YHWH to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
35 “Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: ‘Gade byen, Mwen va kraze banza Élam nan, pi fò nan pwisans pa yo.
“Thus said YHWH of Hosts: Behold, I am breaking the bow of Elam, The beginning of their might.
36 Mwen va mennen sou Élam kat van ki sòti nan kat pwent syèl yo, e Mwen va gaye pèp yo a tout van sa yo. P ap gen nasyon kote moun rejte a Élam yo pa prale.
And I have brought four winds to Elam, From the four ends of the heavens, And have scattered them to all these winds, And there is no nation to where outcasts of Elam do not come in.
37 Konsa, Mwen va kraze Élam devan lènmi yo ak devan sila k ap chache lavi yo. Mwen va mennen gwo kalamite sou yo, menm kòlè sovaj Mwen’, deklare SENYÈ a. ‘Mwen va voye nepe kont yo jiskaske Mwen fin manje yo nèt.
And I have frightened Elam before their enemies, And before those seeking their life, And I have brought calamity on them, The heat of My anger, A declaration of YHWH, And I have sent the sword after them, Until I have consumed them;
38 Epi Mwen va mete twòn pa Mwen nan Élam, e Mwen va detwi wa pa yo ak ofisye pa yo,’ deklare SENYÈ a.
And I have set My throne in Elam, And I have destroyed king and princes from there, A declaration of YHWH.
39 ‘Men li va vin rive nan dènye jou yo, ke Mwen va restore fòtin Élam yo’, deklare SENYÈ a.”
And it has come to pass, in the latter end of the days, I return the captivity of Elam, A declaration of YHWH!”
