Jeremi 52
1 Sédécias te gen laj a venteyen ane lè l te devni wa a e li te renye pandan onz ane Jérusalem. Non manman l te Hamuthal, fi a Jérémie nan Libna a.
Zedekiah [is] a son of twenty-one years in his reigning, and he has reigned eleven years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
2 Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a tankou tout sa ke Jojakim te fè yo.
And he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that Jehoiakim has done,
3 Paske akoz kòlè SENYÈ a, bagay sa a te rive Jérusalem ak Juda jiskaske Li te jete yo deyò prezans Li. Epi Sédécias te fè rebèl kont wa Babylone nan.
for because of the anger of YHWH, it has been in Jerusalem and Judah until He has cast them from before His face, and Zedekiah rebels against the king of Babylon.
4 Alò, li te vin rive nan nevyèm ane règn li an, nan dizyèm jou nan dizyèm mwa a, ke Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan te vini, li menm ak tout lame li a, kont Jérusalem, te fè kan kont li e te bati yon miray syèj ki te antoure li.
And it comes to pass, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has come—he and all his force—against Jerusalem, and they encamp against it, and build against it a fortification all around;
5 Konsa, vil la te anba syèj jis rive nan onzyèm ane a wa Sédécias.
and the city comes into siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
6 Nan Nevyèm jou nan katriyèm mwa a, gwo grangou a te tèlman rèd nan vil la ke pa t gen manje pou pèp peyi a.
In the fourth month, on the ninth of the month, when the famine is severe in the city, and there has been no bread for the people of the land,
7 Konsa yo te kase antre nan vil la, e tout mesye lagè yo te kouri kite vil la pandan lannwit lan bò kote pòtay ki te antre de miray ki te akote jaden a wa a. Sepandan, Kaldeyen yo te antoure vil la nèt. Yo te ale pa chemen Araba a vle di dezè a.
then the city is broken up, and all the men of war flee, and go forth from the city by night, the way of the gate between the two walls that [is] by the king’s garden—and the Chaldeans [are] by the city all around—and they go the way of the plain.
8 Men lame Kaldeyen an te kouri dèyè wa a. Li te rive sou Sédécias nan plèn Jéricho e tout lame li a te gen tan gaye kite li.
And the forces of the Chaldeans pursue after the king, and overtake Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and all his forces have been scattered from him,
9 Epi yo te kaptire wa a. Yo te mennen li monte kote wa Babylone nan nan Ribla nan peyi Hamath, e li te kondane li la.
and they capture the king, and bring him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he speaks with him—judgments.
10 Wa Babylone nan te touye fis a Sédécias yo devan zye l e anplis, li te touye tout prens Juda yo Ribla.
And the king of Babylon slaughters the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he has also slaughtered all the princes of Judah in Riblah;
11 Anplis, li te avegle zye a Sédécias. Konsa, wa Babylone nan te anprizone l ak braslè an bwonz, te mennen li Babylone, e te mete l nan prizon jis rive jou ke li te mouri an.
and he has blinded the eyes of Zedekiah, and he binds him in bronze chains, and the king of Babylon brings him to Babylon, and puts him in the house of inspection to the day of his death.
12 Alò, nan dizyèm jou nan senkyèm mwa a, ki te diz-nevyèm ane a wa Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, Nebuzaradan, chèf an tèt kò gad la, ki te nan sèvis wa a Babylone nan, te rive Jérusalem.
And in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month—it [is] the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon—Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, has come; he has stood before the king of Babylon in Jerusalem,
13 Li te brile kay SENYÈ a lakay wa a, ak tout kay Jérusalem yo; menm tout gwo kay yo, li te brile yo ak dife.
and he burns the house of YHWH, and the house of the king, and all the houses of Jerusalem—even every great house he has burned with fire,
14 Konsa, tout lame Kaldeyen ki te avèk chèf kò gad yo, te demoli tout miray ki te antoure Jérusalem yo.
and all the forces of the Chaldeans that [are] with the chief of the executioners have broken down all the walls of Jerusalem.
15 Epi Nebuzaradan, chèf kò gad yo, te mennen, pote an egzil kèk nan moun ki pi malere pami pèp la, tout lòt moun ki te rete nan vil la, sila ki te dezète Jérusalem yo pou ale kote wa Babylone nan ak tout rès moun metye yo.
And of the poor of the people, and the remnant of the people who are left in the city, and those who are defecting, who have defected to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the multitude, Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, has removed;
16 Men Nebuzaradan, chèf kò gad la, te kite kèk moun nan pi malere yo pou okipe chan rezen yo, e pou laboure tè a.
and of the poor of the land, Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, has left for vinedressers and for farmers.
17 Alò, pilye an bwonz, ki te apatyen a lakay SENYÈ a, baz yo, ak gwo lanmè an bwonz ki te lakay SENYÈ a, Kaldeyen yo te kraze yo an mòso e te pote tout bwonz yo Babylone.
And the pillars of bronze that [are] in the house of YHWH, and the bases, and the bronze sea that [is] in the house of YHWH, the Chaldeans have broken, and they carry away all the bronze of them to Babylon;
18 Anplis, yo te pran veso yo, pèl yo, etoufè yo, basen yo, po yo ak tout veso an bwonz ki te sèvi nan tanp lan.
and the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they minister, they have taken away;
19 Anplis, chèf kò gad la te retire bòl yo, plato sann yo, basen yo, po yo, chandelye yo, sa ki te fèt an lò fen ak sa ki te fèt an ajan fen.
and the basins, and the fire-pans, and the bowls, and the pots, and the lampstands, and the spoons, and the cups, the gold of that which [is] gold, and the silver of that which [is] silver, the chief of the executioners has taken.
20 De pilye yo, sèl lanmè a, douz towo an bwonz ki te anba lanmè a, ak baz yo, ke Wa Salomon te fè pou lakay SENYÈ a——bwonz nan tout veso sa yo te depase kontwòl nan pwa.
The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve bronze oxen that [are] beneath the bases, that King Solomon made for the house of YHWH, there was no weighing of the bronze of all these vessels.
21 Epi pou pilye yo, wotè a chak pilye te diz-uit koude, li te mezire douz koude sikonferans lan, kat dwat nan epesè e vid nan mitan.
As for the pillars, eighteen cubits [is] the height of the one pillar, and a cord of twelve cubits goes around it, and its thickness [is] four fingers hollow.
22 Alò, yon tèt kouvèti an bwonz te sou li; epi wotè a chak tèt kouvèti te senk koude, ak yon sistèm mèch fèt avèk chèn an fil tòde pou tèt kouvèti ak grenad sou tèt kouvèti ki antoure l yo, tout nan bwonz nèt. Epi dezyèm pilye a te tankou sila a, menm ak grenad yo.
And the capital on it [is] of bronze, and the height of the one capital [is] five cubits, and network and pomegranates [are] on the capital all around, the whole [is] of bronze; and like these—the second pillar—and pomegranates.
23 Te gen katre-ven-sèz grenad byen parèt; tout nan grenad yo te kontwole an santèn, sou sistèm mèch la toupatou.
And the pomegranates are ninety-six on a side, all the pomegranates [are] one hundred on the network all around.
24 Epi chèf kò gad la te pran Seraja, chèf prèt la, Sophonie, dezyèm wo prèt la, ak twa ofisye a tanp yo.
And the chief of the executioners takes Seraiah the head priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold,
25 Anplis, li te pran soti nan vil la, yon ofisye ki te yon sipèvizè pou mesye lagè yo, sèt nan konseye wa ki te twouve nan vil yo, grefye a wo kòmandan ki te òganize pèp peyi a ak swasant mesye a pèp ki te twouve nan mitan vil yo.
and he has taken a certain eunuch out of the city, who has been inspector over the men of war, and seven men of those seeing the king’s face, who have been found in the city, and the head scribe of the host, who musters the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land, who are found in the midst of the city;
26 Nebuzaradan, chèf kò gad la te pran yo e te mennen yo kote wa Babylone nan Ribla.
and Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, takes them, and brings them to the king of Babylon at Riblah,
27 Epi wa Babylone nan te frape yo mete a lanmò nan Ribla nan peyi Hamath la. Konsa, Juda te mennen ale an egzil kite peyi li.
and the king of Babylon strikes them, and puts them to death in Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he removes Judah from off its own ground.
28 Sila yo se moun ke Nebucadnetsar te pote ale an egzil nan setyèm ane a: twa-mil-venn-twa Jwif;
This [is] the people whom Nebuchadnezzar has removed: in the seventh year, of Jews, three thousand and twenty-three;
29 nan diz-uityèm ane Nebucadnetsar a, ui-san-trant-de moun ki sòti Jérusalem;
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar—from Jerusalem—eight hundred thirty-two souls;
30 nan venn-twazyèm ane a Nebucadnetsar a, Nebuzaradan, chèf kò gad yo te pote an egzil sèt-san-karant-senk Jwif. Nom de moun antou te kat-mil moun.
in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the guard, has removed of Jewish souls, seven hundred forty-five; all the souls [are] four thousand and six hundred.
31 Alò, li te vin rive nan trant-setyèm ane egzil Jojakin, wa Juda a, nan douzyèm mwa a, sou venn-senkyèm jou a mwa a, ke Évil-Merodac, wa Babylone nan, nan premye ane règn li a, te montre favè li a Jojakin, wa Juda a, e te lage li nan prizon.
And it comes to pass, in the thirty-seventh year of the expulsion of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, Evil-Merodach king of Babylon has lifted up, in the year of his reign, the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brings him out from the house of restraint,
32 Konsa, li te pale dousman avèk li e te mete twòn li pi wo pase twòn a wa ki te avèk li Babylone yo.
and speaks good things with him, and sets his throne above the throne of the kings who [are] with him in Babylon,
33 Konsa, Jojakin te chanje rad prizonye li a, e te pran repa li nan prezans a wa a pandan tout rès jou lavi li yo.
and he has changed his prison garments, and he has continually eaten bread before him, all the days of his life.
34 Pou okipe li, li te resevwa yon pòsyon nòmal chak jou pandan tout rès jou lavi li, jis rive jou li te mouri an.
And his allowance—a continual allowance—has been given to him by the king of Babylon, the matter of a day in its day, until [the] day of his death—all [the] days of his life.
