Jeremiah 50

Men mesaj Seyè a te mete nan bouch pwofèt Jeremi sou lavil Babilòn ak sou tout moun peyi a:
The word that the LORD spake against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet.
-Bay tout nasyon yo nouvèl la. Fè yo konnen l'. Bay siyal la, fè nouvèl la mache. Pa kenbe nouvèl la kache. Di yo: Yo pran lavil Babilòn, yo fè bondye Babilòn lan wont. Yo fini ak Madouk. Tout zidòl li yo wont. Yo kraze tout vye bagay sa yo.
Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces.
Paske yon nasyon ap soti nan nò, l'ap mache pran peyi a, l'ap fè l' tounen yon dezè. p'ap gen pesonn ladan l'. Bèt kou moun ap kouri met deyò.
For out of the north there cometh up a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell therein: they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast.
Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Jou sa yo, lè sa a, moun peyi Izrayèl yo ak moun peyi Jida yo ap vini ansanm. Y'ap mache, y'ap kriye, y'ap chache Seyè a, Bondye yo a.
In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the LORD their God.
Y'ap mande chemen pou y' al mòn Siyon, y'ap pran chemen an ale. Yo pral siyen yon kontra ak Seyè a, yon kontra k'ap la pou tout tan, yon kontra yo p'ap janm bliye.
They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us join ourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten.
Pèp mwen an te tankou mouton ki pèdi bann yo. Se gadò yo ki te lage yo, kifè yo gaye nan mòn yo. Y'ap mache pwonmennen nan tout mòn yo. Yo pèdi chemen kay yo.
My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.
Tout moun ki jwenn yo sou wout yo tonbe sou yo. Lè konsa lènmi yo di: Se pa fòt nou! Se yo menm ki fè peche kont Seyè a ki te ka rann yo jistis, kont Seyè a ki te tout espwa zansèt yo.
All that found them have devoured them: and their adversaries said, We offend not, because they have sinned against the LORD, the habitation of justice, even the LORD, the hope of their fathers.
Nou menm pèp Izrayèl la, kouri kite lavil Babilòn! Mete deyò nan peyi moun Kalde yo! Se nou menm ki pou pati an premye kite peyi a.
Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he goats before the flocks.
Mwen pral leve yon bann gwo nasyon bò nan nò, mwen pral fè yo mache pran lavil Babilòn. Yo pral pran pozisyon pou yo goumen avè l', yo pral kraze l'. Sòlda yo, se moun ki gen anpil ladrès nan sèvi ak banza, yo pa janm manke sa y'ap vize a.
For, lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country: and they shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she shall be taken: their arrows shall be as of a mighty expert man; none shall return in vain.
Y'ap piye lavil Babilòn. Wi, tout moun k'ap piye l' yo ap pran pot ale jouk yo pa konn kote pou yo mete ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
And Chaldea shall be a spoil: all that spoil her shall be satisfied, saith the LORD.
Seyè a di ankò: -Nou menm moun lavil Babilòn ki t' al piye pèp ki rele m' pa m' lan, nou te kontan, nou t'ap fè fèt, nou t'ap sote ponpe tankou ti gazèl lage nan savann, nou t'ap ranni tankou jenn poulen.
Because ye were glad, because ye rejoiced, O ye destroyers of mine heritage, because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass, and bellow as bulls;
Men, peyi nou an, lavil kote nou moun lan, pral wont. Yo pral trennen yo nan labou. Nan tout nasyon yo, Babilòn pral dèyè nèt. L'ap tounen yon dezè, san dlo, san yon pyebwa.
Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
Paske Seyè a pral move sou li. p'ap gen pesonn rete nan lavil Babilòn lan. Tout kay li yo ap tounen mazi. Tout moun k'ap pase bò la pral sezi, y'a mete men nan tèt lè y'a wè tout sa ki rive l'.
Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.
Nou menm ki sèvi ak banza, ranje kò nou, sènen lavil Babilòn. Tire sou li! Voye tout flèch nou yo sou li, paske li fè peche kont Seyè a.
Put yourselves in array against Babylon round about: all ye that bend the bow, shoot at her, spare no arrows: for she hath sinned against the LORD.
Nou tout ki sènen l' yo, rele byen fò, mache pran li! Lavil Babilòn rann tèt li. Miray li yo tonbe, gwo poto l' yo atè. Se konsa m'ap tire revanj mwen. Tire revanj nou sou li. Fè l' pase sa li te fè nou pase a.
Shout against her round about: she hath given her hand: her foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down: for it is the vengeance of the LORD: take vengeance upon her; as she hath done, do unto her.
Pa kite pesonn pou plante jaden! Pa kite pesonn pou ranmase lè sezon rekòt rive! Lè lagè a va pete, tout moun lòt nasyon yo va chache chemen pa yo, y'a kouri met deyò al lakay yo.
Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn every one to his people, and they shall flee every one to his own land.
Seyè a di ankò: -Pèp Izrayèl la te tankou mouton ki pèdi bann yo. Lyon gaye yo nan tout raje. Premye moun ki mete men sou yo se te wa peyi Lasiri a. Apre sa, se te Nèbikadneza, wa peyi Babilòn lan, ki te kraze tout zo yo.
Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones.
Se poutèt sa, men sa mwen menm, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, men sa mwen di: Mwen pral regle wa Babilòn lan ansanm ak tout peyi li a, menm jan mwen te regle wa peyi Lasiri a.
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.
Apre sa, m'ap fè pèp Izrayèl la tounen nan peyi l'. Y'a manje tou sa k'ap pouse sou mòn Kamèl ak nan zòn Bazan. Y'a manje plen vant yo tou sa y'a rekòlte sou mòn Efrayim yo ak nan peyi Galarad.
And I will bring Israel again to his habitation, and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied upon mount Ephraim and Gilead.
Jou sa yo, lè sa a, yo p'ap jwenn yon peche pou mete sou kont moun Izrayèl yo, ni yon mechanste pou mete sou kont moun Jida yo, paske m'ap padonnen tout moun m'a kite chape anba lanmò. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.
In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.
Seyè a di ankò: -Mache pran peyi moun Mira-Tayim yo! Atake moun peyi Pekòd yo! Touye yo tout, fini ak yo nèt! Se pou nou fè tou sa mwen menm mwen ban nou lòd fè a!
Go up against the land of Merathaim, even against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod: waste and utterly destroy after them, saith the LORD, and do according to all that I have commanded thee.
Nan tout peyi a, se lagè k'ap fèt! Se kraze brize nèt ale!
A sound of battle is in the land, and of great destruction.
Lavil Babilòn te tankou yon gwo mato ki t'ap kraze tout moun sou latè. Koulye a, mato a chape, li tonbe, li kraze. Yo fini ak Babilòn. Yo fè l' tounen yon dezè san moun ladan l' nan mitan tout nasyon yo!
How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!
Babilòn! Mwen te pare yon pèlen pou ou! Ou tonbe ladan l' san ou pa konnen! Yo jwenn ou, yo mete men sou ou, paske ou te soti pou goumen avè m'.
I have laid a snare for thee, and thou art also taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striven against the LORD.
Seyè a louvri depo zam li yo. Li fè kòlè, li mete yo deyò, paske mwen menm, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, mwen gen yon travay pou m' fè ak moun Babilòn yo.
The LORD hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: for this is the work of the Lord GOD of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans.
Soti toupatou sou latè, vin atake l'! Louvri tout depo pwovizyon l' yo! Anpile tou sa nou jwenn, boule tout pou Seyè a. Pa kite anyen!
Come against her from the utmost border, open her storehouses: cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly: let nothing of her be left.
Touye tout sòlda li yo tankou bèf nan labatwa! Madichon pou moun Babilòn yo! Jòdi a, lè chatiman yo a rive!
Slay all her bullocks; let them go down to the slaughter: woe unto them! for their day is come, the time of their visitation.
Koute! Moun k'ap kouri chape kò yo, moun k'ap kouri kite lavil Babilòn lan, ap moute sou mòn Siyon, y'ap fè konnen jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap tire revanj li pou sa moun Babilòn yo fè tanp li a.
The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
Voye chache tout moun ki konn sèvi ak banza pou yo mache pran lavil Babilòn. Fè yo sènen lavil la nèt, pou pesonn pa ka chape. Fè l' peye tou sa li te fè. Fè l' pase tou sa li te fè lòt moun pase, paske li te konprann pou l' te kenbe tèt ak Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la ki yon Bondye apa.
Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do unto her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
Se poutèt sa, yo pral touye tout jenn gason l' yo nan tout lari. Jou sa a, yo pral disparèt tout sòlda li yo. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki di sa.
Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD.
Moun Babilòn, nou awogan twòp! Mwen leve dèyè nou! Se mwen menm, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye sèl Mèt la, ki di sa. Jou pa ou la rive, lè pou m' pini ou lan rive sou ou.
Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee.
Peyi moun awogan sa yo pral tonbe. Pesonn p'ap ka fè l' kanpe ankò. M'ap mete dife nan tout lavil yo. Tout bagay alawonn pral boule.
And the most proud shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.
Wi, men sa Seyè a di ankò: Y'ap peze moun peyi Izrayèl yo ansanm ak moun peyi Jida yo. Moun ki te depòte yo kenbe yo kout, yo pa vle lage yo.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah were oppressed together: and all that took them captives held them fast; they refused to let them go.
Men, moun k'ap vin delivre yo a fò tou! Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a. Se konsa li rele. L'ap pran defans yo, l'ap fè tout lòt nasyon yo viv ak kè poze, men l'ap bay moun lavil Babilòn yo kè sote.
Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
Men sa Seyè a di ankò: -Lanmò pou lavil Babilòn! Lanmò pou tout moun ki rete ladan l'! Lanmò pou chèf li yo, pou moun save l' yo!
A sword is upon the Chaldeans, saith the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men.
Lanmò pou divinò li yo! Se yon bann egare yo ye. Lanmò pou sòlda li yo! Y'ap tranble, yo pa konn sa pou yo fè.
A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed.
Lanmò pou chwal li yo! Kraze tout cha lagè li yo. Lanmò pou tout moun lòt nasyon k'ap fè djòb sòlda lakay yo! Se pou yo vin tankou fanm. Disparèt tout richès li yo. Piye tout byen li yo.
A sword is upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed.
Chechrès nan tout peyi a. Se pou tout dlo rivyè yo cheche. Babilòn se yon peyi zidòl, k'ap fè moun pèdi tèt yo.
A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad upon their idols.
Se poutèt sa, se chat mawon ak vye bèt nan bwa ki pral rete nan peyi sa a. Se la gwo zwazo otrich yo pral rete. P'ap janm gen moun rete ladan l' ankò pou tout tan, jouk sa kaba.
Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
Sa pral tankou gwo malè Bondye te voye sou lavil Sodòm ak lavil Gomò, malè ki te detwi yo ansanm ak tout ti bouk nan vwazinaj yo. Pesonn p'ap rete la, p'ap gen yon moun nan peyi a ankò. Se mwen menm Seyè a wi ki di sa.
As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
Moun ap soti nan yon peyi bò nan nò. Yon gwo pèp ak anpil chèf vanyan soti byen lwen, y'ap pare pou fè lagè.
Behold, a people shall come from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
Yo pran banza ak frenn yo. Yo mechan anpil, se yon bann san manman. Lè yo sou chwal yo, y'ap fè bri tankou lanmè lè l' move. Yo pare lame yo pou yo vin fè lagè kont Babilòn.
They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
Wa Babilòn lan pran nouvèl la. Li santi de bra l' kase. Li gen yon sèl kè sere, l'ap soufri tankou yon fanm ki gen tranche.
The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: anguish took hold of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail.
Tankou yon lyon k'ap soti nan rakbwa bò larivyè Jouden an pou l' ale kote bèt yo ye nan savann yo, mwen menm Seyè a, m'ap vini. M'ap fè moun yo kouri kite peyi a, anvan yo bat je yo. Lè sa a, se moun m'a chwazi a m'a mete pou gouvènen peyi a. Ki moun ki tankou m'? Ki moun ki ka koresponn avè m'? Ki chèf ki ka kenbe tèt avè m'?
Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan unto the habitation of the strong: but I will make them suddenly run away from her: and who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me?
Konsa, koute sa mwen soti pou m' fè moun lavil Babilòn yo, sa mwen fè lide fè moun peyi Kalde yo: Sèten, ata timoun yo yo pral trennen pot ale. Yo pral devaste tout peyi a devan je yo.
Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.
Lè lavil Babilòn tonbe, l'ap fè yon kokennchenn bri, latè ap tranble. Y'ap tande rèl moun yo nan tout lòt nasyon yo.
At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.
