< Jeremi 50 >

1 Pawòl ke SENYÈ a te pale konsènan Babylone, peyi Kaldeyen yo, pa Jérémie, pwofèt la:
The word which the Lord spak of Babiloyne, and of the lond of Caldeis, in the hond of Jeremye, the profete.
2 “Deklare e pwoklame pami nasyon yo. Pwoklame sa e leve yon drapo. Pa kache sa, men di: ‘Babylone te kaptire Bel gen tan plen regre, Merodac fin nan gwo twoub! Imaj li yo fè wont, e zidòl li yo fin sans espwa.’
Telle ye among hethene men, and make ye herd; reise ye a signe; preche ye, and nyle ye holde stille; seie ye, Babiloyne is takun, Bel is schent, Maradach is ouer comun; the grauun ymagis therof ben schent, the idols of hem ben ouer comun.
3 Paske yon nasyon gen tan monte kont li soti nan nò; sa va fè peyi li vin yon objè degoutan e p ap genyen moun ki rete ladann. Ni moun, ni bèt fin egare ale; yo ale nèt!
For a folk schal stie fro the north ayenus it, which folk schal sette the lond therof in to wildirnesse; and noon schal be that schal dwelle therynne, fro man `til to beeste; and thei ben moued, and yeden a wei.
4 “Nan jou sa yo ak nan lè sa a,” deklare SENYÈ a: “Fis Israël yo va vini, ni yo menm, ni fis a Juda yo tou; yo va avanse ap kriye pandan yo prale e se SENYÈ a, Bondye ke yo va chache a.
In tho daies, and in that tyme, seith the Lord, the sones of Israel schulen come, thei and the sones of Juda togidere, goynge and wepynge; thei schulen haaste, and seke her Lord God in Sion,
5 Yo va mande pou chemen ki ale nan Sion an, e vire figi yo vè direksyon li. Yo va di ‘Vin mete tèt nou ak SENYÈ a, nan yon akò k ap dire jis pou tout tan, youn ki p ap janm bliye.’
and thei schulen axe the weie. Hidur the faces of hem schulen come, and thei schulen be set to the Lord with boond of pees euerlastynge, which schal not be don awei by ony foryetyng.
6 Pèp Mwen an gen tan vin mouton ki pèdi. Bèje yo te egare yo. Yo te fè yo vire akote mòn yo. Yo te avanse soti sou mòn pou rive sou kolin, e yo te bliye plas repo yo.
My puple is maad a lost floc, the scheepherdis of hem disseyueden hem, and maden to go vnstabli in hillis; thei passiden fro mounteyn in to a litil hil, thei foryaten her bed.
7 Tout moun ki rive sou yo te devore yo; epi advèsè yo te di: ‘Nou pa koupab, paske se yo ki te peche kont SENYÈ ki se abitasyon ladwati a, menm SENYÈ a, espwa a papa zansèt yo.’
Alle men that founden, eeten hem, and the enemyes of hem seiden, We synneden not, for that thei synneden to the Lord, the fairnesse of riytfulnesse, and to the Lord, the abidyng of her fadris.
8 “Detounen kite mitan Babylone! Sòti nan peyi Kaldeyen yo. Fè konsi se mal kabrit k ap mache nan tèt bann an.
Go ye awei fro the myddis of Babiloyne, and go ye out of the lond of Caldeis, and be ye as kydis bifore the floc.
9 Paske gade byen, Mwen va leve fè parèt kont Babylone, yon gwo foul nasyon pwisan soti nan peyi nò a. Yo va rale lign batay yo kont li. Depi la, yo va vin an kaptivite. Flèch yo va tankou yon gèrye ekspè, ki pa janm retounen men vid.
For lo! Y schal reise, and brynge in to Babiloyne the gaderyng togidere of grete folkis, fro the lond of the north; and thei schulen be maad redi ayens it, and it schal be takun in the dai; the arowe therof as of a strong man a sleere, schal not turne ayen voide.
10 Chaldée va vin yon viktim; tout moun ki piyaje li va jwenn kont yo,” deklare SENYÈ a.
And Caldee schal be in to prey, alle that distrien it, schulen be fillid, seith the Lord.
11 “Akoz nou kontan, akoz nou ap fete, o nou menm ki te konn piyaje eritaj Mwen an; akoz nou fè sote tankou yon jenn gazèl k ap foule sereyal; epi ki vin ranni kon jenn poulen,
For ye maken ful out ioye, and speken grete thingis, and rauyschen myn eritage; for ye ben sched out as caluys on erbe, and lowiden as bolis.
12 manman nou va tèlman wont, sila ki te bay nou nesans lan va imilye. Gade byen, li va pi piti pami nasyon yo, yon savann, yon peyi sèch, yon dezè.
Youre modir is schent greetli, and sche that gendride you, is maad euene to dust; lo! sche schal be the last among folkis, and forsakun, with out weie, and drie.
13 Akoz endiyasyon SENYÈ a, li p ap abite, men li va dezole nèt. Tout moun ki pase kote Babylone va vin sezi. E va sifle kon koulèv akoz tout dega li yo.
For the wraththe of the Lord it schal not be enhabitid, but it schal be dryuun al in to wildirnesse; ech that schal passe bi Babiloyne, schal wondre, and schal hisse on alle the woundis therof.
14 Monte lign batay ou kont Babylone tout kote, nou tout ki konn koube banza. Tire sou li. Pa konsève flèch nou yo, paske li te peche kont SENYÈ a.
Alle ye that beenden bowe, be maad redi ayens Babiloyne bi cumpas; ouercome ye it, spare ye not arowis, for it synnede to the Lord.
15 Leve kriye batay la kont li tout kote! Li te tonbe. Mi defans li yo fin tonbe, miray li yo fin demoli. Paske sa se vanjans SENYÈ a. Pran vanjans sou li. Jan li te konn fè a, fè l konsa.
Crye ye ayens it, euery where it yaf hond; the foundementis therof fellen doun, and the wallis therof ben distried; for it is the veniaunce of the Lord. Take ye veniaunce of it; as it dide, do ye to it.
16 Koupe retire kiltivatè Babylone nan; ak sila ki voye kouto nan lè rekòlt la. Akoz krent nepe opresè a, yo chak va retounen vè pwòp pèp pa yo, e yo chak va sove ale nan pwòp peyi yo.
Leese ye a sowere of Babiloyne, and hym that holdith a sikil in the tyme of heruest, fro the face of swerd of the culuer; ech man schal be turned to his puple, and ech man schal flee to his lond.
17 “Israël se yon bann moun kap kouri devan lachas lyon an te chase yo ale. Premye ki te devore li a se te wa Assyrie a, e dènye ki te kraze zo li yo se te Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan.”
Israel is a scaterid flok, liouns castiden out it; first kyng Assur eete it, this laste Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, dide awei the bonys therof.
18 Pou sa, konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la: “Gade byen, Mwen va pini wa Babylone nan ak peyi li a, menm jan ke M te pini wa Assyrie a.
Therfor the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal visite the kyng of Babiloyne, and his lond, as Y visitide the kyng of Assur;
19 Epi Mwen va mennen Israël retounen nan patiraj li e li va jwen manje li sou Carmel ak sou Basan; epi dezi li va satisfè nan peyi kolin Éphraïm ak Galaad yo.
and Y schal brynge ayen Israel to his dwellyng place. Carmele and Baasan schal be fed, and his soule schal be fillid in the hil of Effraym, and of Galaad.
20 Nan jou sa yo ak nan lè sa a”, deklare SENYÈ a: “rechèch va fèt pou jwenn inikite Israël la, men p ap genyen; epi pou peche a Juda yo, men yo p ap jwenn; paske Mwen va padone sila ke M kite kon retay yo.”
In tho daies, and in that tyme, seith the Lord, the wickidnesse of Israel schal be souyt, and it schal not be; and the synne of Juda schal be souyt, and it schal not be foundun; for Y schal be merciful to hem, whiche Y schal forsake.
21 “Kont peyi Merathaïm nan monte; kont li ak kont moun Pékod yo. Touye yo e detwi yo nèt,” deklare SENYÈ a; “epi fè selon tout sa ke M te kòmande nou yo.
Stie thou on the lond of lordis, and visite thou on the dwelleris therof; scatere thou, and sle tho thingis, that ben aftir hem, seith the Lord; and do thou bi alle thingis which Y comaundide to thee.
22 Bri batay la nan peyi a ak destriksyon an vin gran.
The vois of batel and greet sorewe in the lond.
23 Gade kijan mato k ap frape tout latè a fin koupe an moso e kraze! Gade kijan Babylone te vin yon objè degoutan pami nasyon yo!
Hou is the hamer of al erthe brokun and al defoulid? hou is Babiloyne turned in to desert, among hethene men?
24 Mwen te poze yon pèlen pou ou e ou menm te kenbe tou, o Babylone. Pandan ou pa t menm konnen, ou tou te dekouvri, ou e te pran, akoz ou te goumen kont SENYÈ a.”
Babiloyne, Y haue snarid thee, and thou art takun, and thou wistist not; thou art foundun, and takun, for thou terridist the Lord to wraththe.
25 SENYÈ a te ouvri depo zam Li. Li te fè parèt zam endiyasyon Li yo, paske Senyè BONDYE Dèzame yo gen travay ki pou fèt nan peyi Kaldeyen yo.
The Lord openide his tresour, and brouyte forth the vessels of his wraththe; for whi a werk is to the Lord God of oostis in the lond of Caldeis.
26 Vin kote li soti nan lizyè ki pi lwen an. Ouvri depo li yo. Anpile li kon gwo pil. Detwi li nèt. Pa kite anyen rete pou li.
Come ye to it fro the fertheste endis, opene ye, that thei go out, that schulen defoule it; take ye awei stoonys fro the weie, and dryue ye in to heepis, and sle ye it, and nothing be residue.
27 Mete tout jenn towo li yo a nepe. Kite yo desann nan masak la! Malè a yo menm, paske jou pa yo a rive, lè pinisyon pa yo a.
Distrie ye alle the stronge men therof, go thei doun in to sleynge; wo to hem, for the dai of hem cometh, the tyme of visityng of hem.
28 Tande bri a sila k ap sove ale yo, ak sila k ap pran flit kite tè Babylone nan, pou deklare an Sion vanjans a SENYÈ Bondye nou an; vanjans pou tanp Li an.
The vois of fleeris, and of hem that ascapiden fro the lond of Babiloyne, that thei telle in Sion the veniaunce of oure Lord God, the veniaunce of his temple.
29 “Rele anpil kont Babylone, tout sila ki konn koube banza yo. Fè kan kont li tout kote, pa bay li mwayen pou chape menm. Rekonpanse li selon zèv li yo. Selon tout sa li te fè yo, konsa fè li; paske li te vin awogan kont SENYÈ a, kont Sila Ki Sen an Israël la.
Telle ye ayens Babiloyne to ful many men, to alle that beenden bowe. Stonde ye togidere ayens it bi cumpas, and noon ascape; yelde ye to it aftir his werk, aftir alle thingis whiche it dide, do ye to it; for it was reisid ayens the Lord, ayens the hooli of Israel.
30 Pou sa, jennonm pa l yo va tonbe nan lari; e tout mesye lagè li yo va tonbe an silans nan jou sa a,” deklare SENYÈ a.
Therfor yonge men therof schulen falle doun in the stretis therof, and alle men werriours therof schulen be stille in that dai, seith the Lord.
31 “Gade byen, Mwen kont ou, O sila ki plen awogans lan”, deklare Senyè BONDYE dèzame yo, “Paske jou pa ou a fin rive, lè ke M va pini ou a.
Lo! thou proude, Y to thee, seith the Lord God of oostis, for thi dai is comun, the tyme of thi visitacioun.
32 Sila ki awogan an va glise tonbe, san pèsòn pou leve li; epi Mwen va mete dife nan vil li yo e li va devore tout andwa l yo.”
And the proude schal falle, and schal falle doun togidere, and noon schal be, that schal reise hym; and Y schal kyndle fier in the citees of hym, and it schal deuoure alle thingis in cumpas of it.
33 Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: “Fis Israël yo vin oprime, ansanm ak fis a Juda yo. Tout moun ki te pran yo an kaptivite yo te kenbe yo di. Yo te refize lage yo.
The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, The sones of Israel and the sones of Juda togidere suffren fals caleng; alle that token hem, holden, thei nylen delyuere hem.
34 Redanmtè yo a fò. SENYÈ dèzame yo se non Li; Li va plede ka yo ak gwo fòs pou L ka mennen lapè sou tè a, ak gwo twoub sou sila ki rete Babylone yo.
The ayenbyere of hem is strong, the Lord of oostis is his name; bi dom he schal defende the cause of hem, that he make the lond aferd, and stire togidere the dwelleris of Babiloyne.
35 “Yon nepe kont Kaldeyen yo”, deklare SENYÈ a: “Kont moun ki rete Babylone yo, kont ofisye li yo ak mesye saj li yo!
A swerd to Caldeis, seith the Lord, and to the dwelleris of Babiloyne, and to the princes, and to the wise men therof.
36 Yon nepe kont moun anfle yo; yo va devni moun fou! Yon nepe kont mesye pwisan li yo; yo va twouble nèt!
A swerd to the false dyuynours therof, that schulen be foolis; a swerd to the stronge men therof, that schulen drede.
37 Yon nepe kont cheval li yo, kont cha lagè yo, kont tout etranje ki rete nan mitan l yo e yo va vin tankou fanm! Yon nepe rete sou trezò li yo, e yo va piyaje!
Swerd to the horsis therof, and to the charis therof, and to al the comyn puple whiche is in the myddis therof, and thei schulen be as wymmen; a swerd to the tresours therof, that schulen be rauyschid.
38 Yon sechrès sou dlo li yo, e yo va vin sèch nèt! Paske se yon peyi imaj taye, e yo fou pou zidòl sa yo.
Drynesse schal be on the watris therof, and tho schulen be drye; for it is the lond of grauun ymagis, and hath glorie in false feynyngis.
39 Akoz sa, bèt dezè yo va viv la, ansanm ak chen mawon. Anplis, otrich va viv ladann, e li p ap janm gen moun ladann ankò, ni moun k ap viv la de jenerasyon an jenerasyon.
Therfor dragouns schulen dwelle with fonned wielde men, and ostrigis schulen dwelle therynne; and it schal no more be enhabitid `til in to with outen ende, and it schal not be bildid `til to generacioun and generacioun;
40 “Tankou lè Bondye te boulvèse Sodome ak Gomorrhe ak vwazen li yo,” deklare SENYÈ a: “Nanpwen moun k ap viv la, ni fis a lòm k ap rete ladann.
as the Lord distriede Sodom and Gomorre, and the niy citees therof, seith the Lord. A man schal not dwelle there, and the sone of man schal not dwelle in it.
41 “Gade byen, yon pèp ap vini soti nan nò, Yon gwo nasyon ak anpil wa va leve soti nan dènye pwent latè.
Lo! a puple cometh fro the north, and a greet folc, and many kyngis schulen rise togidere fro the endis of erthe.
42 Yo sezi banza yo, ak lans yo; yo mechan e yo san mizerikòd. Vwa yo gwonde tankou lanmè. Yo monte sou cheval yo, chaken byen òdone tankou moun pou fè batay kont ou, O fi a Babylone nan.
Thei schulen take bowe and swerd, thei ben cruel and vnmerciful; the vois of hem schal sowne as the see, and thei schulen stie on horsis as a man maad redi to batel, ayens thee, thou douyter of Babiloyne.
43 Wa Babylone nan te tande rapò de yo, e men li pann san fòs. Gwo dekourajman sezi li; gwo doulè tankou yon fanm k ap pouse pitit.
The kyng of Babiloyne herde the fame of hem, and hise hondis ben aclumsid; angwisch took hym, sorewe took hym, as a womman trauelynge of child.
44 Gade byen, youn va monte kon yon lyon soti nan rakbwa Jourdain an, rive nan yon abitasyon byen fò; paske nan yon moman, Mwen va fè yo kouri kite li. Epi nenpòt moun ki chwazi, Mwen va dezinye l mete sou li. Paske se kilès ki tankou Mwen? E se kilès k ap fè m tan lè M? Kilès ki bèje ki ka kanpe devan M?”
Lo! as a lioun he schal stie fro the pride of Jordan to the stronge fairnesse, for Y schal make hym to renne sudenli to it; and who schal be the chosun man, whom Y schal sette bifore him? For who is lijk me? and who schal suffre me? and who is this scheepherde, that schal ayenstonde my cheer?
45 Pou sa, tande konsèy SENYÈ a, ke li te fè kont Babylone; plan a ke Li deja fome kont peyi Kaldeyen yo: Anverite, yo va vin trennen deyò, menm piti nan bann mouton yo. Anverite, li va fè abitasyon yo dezole sou yo.
Therfore here ye the councel of the Lord, which he conseyuede in mynde ayens Babiloyne, and hise thouytis, whiche he thouyte on the lond of Caldeis, no but the litle of the flockis drawen hem doun, no but the dwellyng place of hem be destried with hem, ellis no man yyue credence to me.
46 Latè vin souke ak gwo kri “Babylone te vin pran!” E gwo kri sa a vin tande pami nasyon yo.
The erthe is mouyd of the vois of caitiftee of Babiloyne, and cry is herd among hethene men.
