22 ¶ Seyè a pale ak Jeremi, li di l': -Desann ale kay wa peyi Jida a,

pou ba l' mesaj sa a: Ou menm wa peyi Jida, ki chita sou fotèy David la, nou menm chèf yo ansanm ak tout pèp k'ap antre soti nan pòtay lavil la, koute sa Seyè a di nou:

Mwen menm Seyè a, m'ap mande nou pou nou fè sa ki dwat, pou nou rann jistis san patipri. Se pou nou wete moun y'ap peze yo anba men moun k'ap peze yo a. Pa malmennen moun lòt nasyon ki lakay nou yo, timoun ki san papa yo ak vèv yo. Pa pwofite sou yo. Pa touye moun inonsan isit la.

Si tout bon vre nou fè jan m' mande nou fè la a, n'a toujou gen yonn nan moun fanmi David yo pou wa. Li menm ansanm ak chèf li yo ak tout pèp la va toujou antre soti nan pòtay palè a sou cha ak sou chwal yo.

Men, si nou pa koute m', m'ap fè nou sèman: palè sa a gen pou kraze. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa.

Men sa Seyè a di sou kay wa peyi Jida a: -Pou mwen, palè a bèl tankou peyi Galarad, tankou tèt mòn peyi Liban yo. Men, mwen p'ap pè fè l' tounen yon dezè, yon lavil kote moun pa rete.

M'ap chwazi moun ak rach pou m' voye detwi nou. Yo pral koupe tout bèl bwa sèd nou yo, y'ap voye yo jete nan dife.

Apre sa, anpil moun lòt nasyon va pase bò lavil la. Yonn va mande lòt: Poukisa Seyè a fè gwo lavil sa a sa?

Lèfini y'a reponn: Se paske yo pa t' kenbe kontra Seyè Bondye yo a te siyen ak yo a. Y' al adore lòt bondye yo, yo fè sèvis pou yo.

10 ¶ Nou menm moun Jida, nou pa bezwen kriye pou wa Jozyas ki mouri a. Nou pa bezwen pran lapenn pou li. Kriye pito pou Chaloum, sa yo depòte a. Li menm, li p'ap janm tounen lakay li, li p'ap janm wè peyi kote l' te fèt la ankò.

11 Paske men mesaj Seyè a bay sou Chaloum, pitit Jozyas, ki te vin wa peyi Jida nan plas papa l': Li pati kite isit la, li p'ap janm tounen.

12 Paske kote yo depòte l' la, se la li pral mouri. Li p'ap janm wè peyi a ankò.

13 Madichon pou moun k'ap bati gwo kay avèk lajan lenjistis, k'ap mete chanmòt sou kay yo ak lajan yo fè nan move kondisyon. Y'ap fè jwif parèy yo travay gratis pou yo, yo pa peye yo lajan yo.

14 Madichon pou moun k'ap plede di: mwen pral bati yon gwo kay ak chanm byen laj nan chanmòt yo. Yo mete fennèt nan kay yo, yo palisade yo ak bwa sèd, yo pentire yo tou wouj.

15 Eske w'ap yon pi bon wa paske ou bati kay ou ak bwa sèd pou li pi bèl pase pa lòt moun? Papa ou te manje, li te bwè tankou tout moun. Men, li te fè sa ki dwat, li pa t' fè lenjistis. Tout zafè l' te mache byen.

16 Li te defann kòz pòv malere yo. Tout bagay te mache byen pou li. Se sa ki rele konnen Seyè a.

17 Men ou menm, yon sèl bagay ou wè, yon sèl bagay ou konnen, se enterè pa ou ase. Se konsa w'ap touye inonsan. W'ap maltrete pèp la, w'ap maspinen l'. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.

18 Se konsa, men mesaj Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a bay sou Jojakim, pitit Jozyas, wa peyi Jida a: -Lè l'a mouri, p'ap gen pesonn pou kenbe rèl la ak moun pa l' yo. P'ap gen pesonn pou kriye pou mèt yo, wa yo.

19 Y'ap antere l' tankou chen. Y'ap trennen kadav li, y'ap voye l' jete byen lwen lòt bò pòtay lavil Jerizalèm.

20 ¶ Nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm, ale nan peyi Liban, rele byen fò! Ale nan peyi Bazan, rele! Rete sou mòn Moab yo, rele! Paske yo kraze tout asosye nou yo.

21 Mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen te pale nou lè zafè nou t'ap mache byen. Men, nou te derefize koute m'. Se sa n'ap fè depi tout tan. Nou pa janm vle koute sa m'ap di nou.

22 Van pral bwote tout chèf nou yo ale. Y'ap depòte tout moun lòt nasyon ki asosye nou yo. Lè sa a, nou pral bese tèt nou, nou pral wont pou tout mechanste nou te konn fè yo.

23 Nou menm ki rete nan gwo kay nou bati ak sèd ki soti peyi Liban, ala plenn nou pral plenn lè malè va tonbe sou nou! Nou pral plenn tankou fanm ki gen tranche.

24 Men sa Seyè a voye di Jekonya, pitit Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a: -Mwen fè sèman sou vi mwen, menm si ou te bag letanp ki nan men dwat mwen an, m'ap rache ou nan dwèt mwen.

25 M'ap lage ou nan men moun ki soti pou touye ou yo, nan men moun ou pè yo. M'ap lage ou nan men Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, nan men moun Kalde yo.

26 Mwen pral voye ni ou menm, ni manman ou ki fè ou la, nan peyi etranje. Nou pral nan yon peyi kote nou pa t' fèt. Se la ni ou menm ni li menm pral mouri.

27 N'ap anvi tounen vin wè peyi sa a. Men, nou p'ap janm ka tounen.

28 Moun yo rele Jekonya a, èske li tounen yon kannari kraze y'ap voye jete, yon kannari pesonn pa bezwen? Poukisa yo depòte ni li ni pitit li yo nan peyi yo pa t' janm konnen?

29 O latè, latè, latè! Koute sa Seyè a di:

30 Nonm sa a kondannen pou l' pèdi tout pitit li yo, pou l' pa janm wè zafè l' mache. P'ap janm gen yonn nan pitit li yo ki pou rive chita sou fotèy wa David la, ki pou rive chèf nan peyi Jida a ankò.

Judgment Against Wicked Kings

22 This is what the Lord says: “Go down to the palace of the king(A) of Judah and proclaim this message there: ‘Hear(B) the word of the Lord to you, king of Judah, you who sit on David’s throne(C)—you, your officials and your people who come through these gates.(D) This is what the Lord says: Do what is just(E) and right. Rescue from the hand of the oppressor(F) the one who has been robbed. Do no wrong or violence to the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow,(G) and do not shed innocent blood(H) in this place. For if you are careful to carry out these commands, then kings(I) who sit on David’s throne will come through the gates of this palace, riding in chariots and on horses, accompanied by their officials and their people. But if you do not obey(J) these commands, declares the Lord, I swear(K) by myself that this palace will become a ruin.’”

For this is what the Lord says about the palace of the king of Judah:

“Though you are like Gilead(L) to me,
    like the summit of Lebanon,(M)
I will surely make you like a wasteland,(N)
    like towns not inhabited.
I will send destroyers(O) against you,
    each man with his weapons,
and they will cut(P) up your fine cedar beams
    and throw them into the fire.(Q)

“People from many nations will pass by this city and will ask one another, ‘Why has the Lord done such a thing to this great city?’(R) And the answer will be: ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God and have worshiped and served other gods.(S)’”

10 Do not weep for the dead(T) king or mourn(U) his loss;
    rather, weep bitterly for him who is exiled,
because he will never return(V)
    nor see his native land again.

11 For this is what the Lord says about Shallum[a](W) son of Josiah, who succeeded his father as king of Judah but has gone from this place: “He will never return. 12 He will die(X) in the place where they have led him captive; he will not see this land again.”

13 “Woe(Y) to him who builds(Z) his palace by unrighteousness,
    his upper rooms by injustice,
making his own people work for nothing,
    not paying(AA) them for their labor.
14 He says, ‘I will build myself a great palace(AB)
    with spacious upper rooms.’
So he makes large windows in it,
    panels it with cedar(AC)
    and decorates it in red.(AD)

15 “Does it make you a king
    to have more and more cedar?
Did not your father have food and drink?
    He did what was right and just,(AE)
    so all went well(AF) with him.
16 He defended the cause of the poor and needy,(AG)
    and so all went well.
Is that not what it means to know(AH) me?”
    declares the Lord.
17 “But your eyes and your heart
    are set only on dishonest gain,(AI)
on shedding innocent blood(AJ)
    and on oppression and extortion.”(AK)

18 Therefore this is what the Lord says about Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:

“They will not mourn(AL) for him:
    ‘Alas, my brother! Alas, my sister!’
They will not mourn for him:
    ‘Alas, my master! Alas, his splendor!’
19 He will have the burial(AM) of a donkey—
    dragged away and thrown(AN)
    outside the gates of Jerusalem.”

20 “Go up to Lebanon and cry out,(AO)
    let your voice be heard in Bashan,(AP)
cry out from Abarim,(AQ)
    for all your allies(AR) are crushed.
21 I warned you when you felt secure,(AS)
    but you said, ‘I will not listen!’
This has been your way from your youth;(AT)
    you have not obeyed(AU) me.
22 The wind(AV) will drive all your shepherds(AW) away,
    and your allies(AX) will go into exile.
Then you will be ashamed and disgraced(AY)
    because of all your wickedness.
23 You who live in ‘Lebanon,[b](AZ)
    who are nestled in cedar buildings,
how you will groan when pangs come upon you,
    pain(BA) like that of a woman in labor!

24 “As surely as I live,” declares the Lord, “even if you, Jehoiachin[c](BB) son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, were a signet ring(BC) on my right hand, I would still pull you off. 25 I will deliver(BD) you into the hands of those who want to kill you, those you fear—Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and the Babylonians.[d] 26 I will hurl(BE) you and the mother(BF) who gave you birth into another country, where neither of you was born, and there you both will die. 27 You will never come back to the land you long to return(BG) to.”

28 Is this man Jehoiachin(BH) a despised, broken pot,(BI)
    an object no one wants?
Why will he and his children be hurled(BJ) out,
    cast into a land(BK) they do not know?
29 O land,(BL) land, land,
    hear the word of the Lord!
30 This is what the Lord says:
“Record this man as if childless,(BM)
    a man who will not prosper(BN) in his lifetime,
for none of his offspring(BO) will prosper,
    none will sit on the throne(BP) of David
    or rule anymore in Judah.”
