28 ¶ Nan menm lanne a, nan katriyèm lanne rèy Sedesyas, wa peyi Jida a, nan senkyèm mwa a, pwofèt Ananya, pitit Azou, moun lavil Gabawon, vin pale avè m' nan tanp Seyè a. Devan tout prèt yo ansanm ak pèp la, li di mwen:

-Men mesaj Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, bay: Mwen kraze pouvwa wa Babilòn lan.

Nan dezan, jou pou jou, m'ap pote tout bagay ki te nan tanp Seyè a tounen nan plas yo. Wi, tou sa wa Nèbikadneza te pran nan tanp lan pou l' te pote ale lavil Babilòn, m'ap fè yo tounen nan plas yo.

M'ap fè Jekonya, pitit Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a, ansanm ak tout moun peyi Jida yo te depòte lavil Babilòn yo tounen isit. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa. Wi, mwen pral kraze pouvwa wa Babilòn ki t'ap peze nou an.

Lè sa a, devan tout prèt yo ansanm ak foul moun ki te nan kay Seyè a, pwofèt Jeremi reponn pwofèt Ananya.

Li di konsa: -Dakò! Se pou Seyè a fè sa vre! Se pou li fè sa ou di a rive vre, pou l' fè tout bagay ki te nan Tanp Seyè a ansanm ak moun yo te depòte yo tounen soti lavil Babilòn.

Tansèlman, koute byen sa m'ap di ou, ou menm ansanm ak pèp la:

Pwofèt ki te vini anvan m' yo ak anvan ou tou te fè konnen lagè, grangou ak move maladi pral tonbe sou anpil gwo peyi, sou anpil gran wa ak tout pèp yo.

Men, lè yon pwofèt di tout bagay pral mache byen, se lè sa li di ki gen pou rive a rive vre y'a rekonèt se Seyè a ki te voye l'.

10 ¶ Lè sa a, pwofèt Ananya pran jouk bèf ki te sou zepòl Jeremi an, li kraze l' an miyèt moso.

11 Apre sa, li pran pale ankò devan tout pèp la. Li di konsa: -Men mesaj Seyè a: Nan dezan, jou pou jou, se konsa mwen pral kraze pouvwa Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan. Mwen pral kraze jouk bèf li te mete sou zepòl tout nasyon yo. Apre sa, pwofèt Jeremi al fè wout li.

12 Kèk tan apre pwofèt Ananya te kraze jouk bèf ki te sou zepòl pwofèt Jeremi an, Seyè a pale ak Jeremi, li di l' konsa:

13 -Ale pale ak Ananya. W'a di l' men sa Seyè a voye di ou: Ou te kraze yon jouk bèf fèt an bwa. Ou pral ranplase l' ak yon jouk bèf fèt an fè.

14 Paske men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la di: M'ap mete yon jouk fè sou zepòl tout nasyon sa yo pou yo sèvi Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan. Ata bèt nan bwa va soumèt devan l'.

15 Apre sa, pwofèt Jeremi di pwofèt Ananya konsa: -Koute byen, Ananya! Se pa Seyè a ki te voye ou di sa, tande. Ou twonpe konfyans pèp la.

16 Se sa ki fè men sa Seyè a di: Li pral disparèt ou sou latè. Anvan lanne an bout, w'ap mouri, paske ou pouse pèp la pou l' te kenbe tèt ak Seyè a!

17 Menm lanne an vre, nan setyèm mwa a, pwofèt Ananya mouri.

The False Prophet Hananiah

28 In the fifth month of that same year, the fourth year, early in the reign of Zedekiah(A) king of Judah, the prophet Hananiah son of Azzur, who was from Gibeon,(B) said to me in the house of the Lord in the presence of the priests and all the people: “This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘I will break the yoke(C) of the king of Babylon. Within two years I will bring back to this place all the articles(D) of the Lord’s house that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon removed from here and took to Babylon. I will also bring back to this place Jehoiachin[a](E) son of Jehoiakim king of Judah and all the other exiles from Judah who went to Babylon,’ declares the Lord, ‘for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.’”(F)

Then the prophet Jeremiah replied to the prophet Hananiah before the priests and all the people who were standing in the house of the Lord. He said, “Amen! May the Lord do so! May the Lord fulfill the words you have prophesied by bringing the articles of the Lord’s house and all the exiles back to this place from Babylon.(G) Nevertheless, listen to what I have to say in your hearing and in the hearing of all the people: From early times the prophets who preceded you and me have prophesied war, disaster and plague(H) against many countries and great kingdoms. But the prophet who prophesies peace will be recognized as one truly sent by the Lord only if his prediction comes true.(I)

10 Then the prophet Hananiah took the yoke(J) off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah and broke it, 11 and he said(K) before all the people, “This is what the Lord says: ‘In the same way I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon off the neck of all the nations within two years.’” At this, the prophet Jeremiah went on his way.

12 After the prophet Hananiah had broken the yoke off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: 13 “Go and tell Hananiah, ‘This is what the Lord says: You have broken a wooden yoke, but in its place you will get a yoke of iron. 14 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: I will put an iron yoke(L) on the necks of all these nations to make them serve(M) Nebuchadnezzar(N) king of Babylon, and they will serve him. I will even give him control over the wild animals.(O)’”

15 Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, “Listen, Hananiah! The Lord has not sent(P) you, yet you have persuaded this nation to trust in lies.(Q) 16 Therefore this is what the Lord says: ‘I am about to remove you from the face of the earth.(R) This very year you are going to die,(S) because you have preached rebellion(T) against the Lord.’”

17 In the seventh month of that same year, Hananiah the prophet died.(U)
