Jeremi 1
1 Pawòl a Jérémie yo, fis a Hilkija a, yon nan prèt yo ki te nan Anathoth nan peyi Benjamin.
The wordis of Jeremye, sone of Helchie, of the preestis that weren in Anathot, in the lond of Beniamyn.
2 Pawòl SENYÈ a te vini kote li nan jou Josias yo, fis a Amon an, wa Juda a, nan trèzyèm ane règn li an.
For the word of the Lord was maad to hym in the daies of Josie, the sone of Amon, kyng of Juda, in the threttenethe yeer of his rewme.
3 Li te anplis, vin rive nan jou Jojakim yo, fis a Josias la, wa Juda a, jis rive nan fen onzyèm ane Sédécias, fis a Josias la, wa Juda a, jis rive nan egzil a Jérusalem nan senkyèm mwa a.
And it was don in the daies of Joachym, the sone of Josie, the king of Juda, til to the endyng of the enleuenthe yeer of Sedechie, sone of Josie, kyng of Juda, til the passyng ouer, ether caitifte, of Jerusalem, in the fyuethe monethe.
4 Alò, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen e te di:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
5 Avan Mwen te fòme ou nan vant, Mwen te konnen ou, e avan ou te fèt mwen te konsakre ou. Mwen te deziye ou kon yon pwofèt a nasyon yo.
and seide, Bifor that Y fourmede thee in the wombe, Y knewe thee; and bifor that thou yedist out of the wombe, Y halewide thee; and Y yaf thee a profete among folkis.
6 Konsa, mwen te di: “Malè a mwen, Senyè BONDYE! Gade byen, mwen pa menm konnen kijan pou m pale, paske mwen se sèlman yon jennonm.”
And Y seide, A! A! A! Lord God, lo! Y kan not speke, for Y am a child.
7 Men SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Pa di: ‘Mwen se sèlman yon jennonm’, paske tout kote Mwen voye ou, ou va ale, e tout sa ke Mwen kòmande ou, ou va pale l.
And the Lord seide to me, Nyle thou seie, that Y am a child; for thou schalt go to alle thingis, to whiche Y schal sende thee, and thou schalt speke alle thingis, what euer thingis Y schal comaunde to thee.
8 Pa pè yo, Paske Mwen avèk ou pou delivre ou”, SENYÈ a di.
Drede thou not of the face of hem, for Y am with thee, to delyuere thee, seith the Lord.
9 Epi SENYÈ a te lonje men L e te touche bouch mwen. Konsa, SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Gade byen, Mwen te mete pawòl Mwen nan bouch ou.
And the Lord sente his hond, and touchide my mouth; and the Lord seide to me, Lo! Y haue youe my wordis in thi mouth; lo!
10 Ou wè, Mwen te deziye ou nan jou sa a sou nasyon yo, ak sou wayòm yo, pou rache, pou demoli, pou detwi, pou boulvèse, pou bati ak pou plante.”
Y haue ordeynede thee to day on folkis, and on rewmes, that thou drawe vp, and distrie, and leese, and scatere, and bilde, and plaunte.
11 Pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di: “Se kisa ou wè, Jérémie?” Mwen te reponn: “Mwen wè yon bout branch zanmann.”
And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and seide, What seest thou, Jeremye?
12 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Ou te wè byen; paske Mwen ap veye sou pawòl Mwen pou pawòl Mwen vin fèt.”
And Y seide, Y se a yerde wakynge. And the Lord seide to me, Thou hast seen wel, for Y schal wake on my word, to do it.
13 Pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen yon dezyèm fwa epi te di: “Se kisa ou wè”? Epi mwen te di: “Mwen wè yon chodyè k ap bouyi, k ap apiye fas li kont nò a.”
And the word of the Lord was maad the secounde tyme to me, and seide, What seest thou? Y se a pot buylynge, and the face therof fro the face of the north.
14 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Depi nan nò a, mal la va pete vin parèt sou tout sila ki rete nan peyi a.
And the Lord seide to me, Fro the north schal be schewid al yuel on alle the dwelleris of the lond.
15 Paske gade byen, Mwen ap rele tout fanmi a wayòm yo nan nò”, deklare SENYÈ a; “Yo va vini, e yo chak va plase twòn yo nan antre pòtay Jérusalem nan, kont tout miray antoure li yo, e kont tout vil Juda yo.
For lo! Y schal clepe togidere alle the naciouns of rewmes of the north, seith the Lord, and thei schulen come, and sette ech man his seete in the entryng of the yatis of Jerusalem, and on alle the wallis therof in cumpas, and on alle the citees of Juda.
16 Mwen va pwononse jijman Mwen sou yo pou tout mechanste yo, akòz yo te abandone Mwen, te ofri sakrifis a lòt dye yo, e te adore pwòp zèv men pa yo.
And Y schal speke my domes with hem on al the malice of hem, that forsoken me, and maden sacrifice to alien goddis, and worschipiden the werk of her hondis.
17 “Alò, pou sa a, mare senti ou, epi leve pou pale yo tout sa ke M kòmande ou. Pa pè devan yo, sinon Mwen va fè ou pè devan yo.
Therfor girde thou thi leendis, and rise thou, and speke to hem alle thingis whiche Y comaunde to thee; drede thou not of the face of hem, for Y schal not make thee for to drede the cheer of hem.
18 Gade byen, Mwen te fè ou menm jodi a kon yon vil fòtifye, kon yon pilye fè e kon miray an bwonz kont yon peyi nèt—a wa Juda yo, ak prens li yo, vè prèt li yo e a pèp a peyi a.
For Y yaf thee to dai in to a strong citee, and in to an yrun piler, and in to a brasun wal, on al the lond, to the kyngis of Juda, and to the princis therof, and to the preestis therof, and to al the puple of the lond.
19 Yo va goumen kont ou, men yo p ap reyisi; paske Mwen avèk ou pou delivre ou,” deklare SENYÈ a.
And thei schulen fiyte ayens thee, and thei schulen not haue the maistrie; for Y am with thee, seith the Lord, that Y delyuere thee.
