Joshua 7
1 But the sons of Israel had committed an act of unfaithfulness in respect of what was devoted, —for Achan son of Carmi son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah had taken of what was devoted, and the anger of Yahweh had kindled against the sons of Israel.
Men, pèp Izrayèl la te dezobeyi lòd Seyè a te bay pou yo pa t' pran anyen nan sa yo te gen pou yo detwi nèt yo. Te gen yon nonm nan branch fanmi Jida a ki te rele Akan. Se te pitit Kami. Kami sa a te pitit Zabdi, Zabdi te pitit Zerak. Akan sa a te pran kichòy nan sa yo te gen pou yo detwi nèt yo. Kifè Seyè a te move anpil sou pèp Izrayèl la.
2 And Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai which was beside Beth-aven on the east side of Bethel, and spake unto them saying, Go up and spy out the land. So the men went up, and spied out Ai.
Jozye te voye kèk moun soti lavil Jeriko ale bò Ayi, yon lavil ki te toupre Bèt Avenn, sou bò solèy leve lavil Betèl. Li te di yo pou y' al wè jan sa ye nan peyi a. Mesye yo ale vre, yo wè jan sa ye nan lavil Ayi.
3 And they returned unto Joshua and said unto him—Let not all the people go up, about two thousand men or three thousand men, can go up and smite Ai, —do not weary the whole people to go thither, for, but few, they are.
Lè yo tounen vin jwenn Jozye, yo di li: -Nou pa bezwen deplase tout moun. N'a voye de twa mil moun konsa pou atake lavil Ayi a. Ou pa bezwen voye tout moun al goumen, paske pa gen anpil moun la.
4 There went up thither of the people therefore, about three thousand men, —but they fled before the men of Ai.
Lè sa a, yo chwazi twamil sòlda konsa ki te moute al atake. Men, moun lavil Ayi yo te fè yo kraze rak.
5 And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty-six men, and pursued them before the gate as far as the Shebarim, and smote them on the slope, —so that the heart of the people melted and became as water.
Yo kouri dèyè sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo depi devan pòtay lavil la jouk nan men wòch yo. Nan ladesant lan yo touye trannsis moun konsa nan sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo. Lè sa a, pèp Izrayèl la soti pè. Yo pèdi kouraj.
6 Then Joshua rent his clothes and fell upon his face to the earth before the ark of Yahweh until the evening, he and the elders of Israel, —and they lifted up dust upon their heads.
Jozye te sitèlman nan lapenn, li chire rad sou li, epi li tonbe ajenou, li bese tèt jouk atè devan Bwat Kontra Seyè a. Li rete konsa jouk aswè ansanm ak tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo, yo pran pousyè tè yo mete sou tèt yo pou fè wè jan yo te nan lapenn.
7 And Joshua said—Alas! My Lord Yahweh! Wherefore hast thou, brought, this people over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? Would then we had been content to dwell on the other side of the Jordan!
Epi Jozye di: -Ay, Seyè Bondye! Poukisa ou fè pèp la janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an? Gen lè se pou ou te lage nou nan men moun Amori yo pou yo touye nou? Pa pito ou te kite nou rete lòt bò larivyè Jouden an!
8 Oh My Lord, —what shall I say, after Israel have turned their backs before their enemies?
Tanpri, Mèt mwen! Kisa m' ka di koulye a lè m' wè moun Izrayèl yo ap kouri devan lènmi l' yo?
9 Only let the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land hear, and they will surround us, and cut off our name out of the earth, —what then wilt thou do for thy great name?
Moun Kanaran yo ak tout lòt moun ki rete nan peyi a pral konn sa. Yo pral leve dèyè nou. Yo pral touye nou nèt nan peyi a. Kisa ou pral fè lè sa a pou yo pa avili non ou?
10 And Yahweh said unto Joshua—Get thee up! wherefore is it that thou art lying upon thy face?
Seyè a di Jozye konsa: -Leve non! Poukisa ou lage kò ou atè konsa?
11 Israel hath sinned, yea moreover they have transgressed my covenant which I commanded them, —yea moreover they have taken of what was devoted, yea moreover they have stolen, yea moreover they have dissembled, yea moreover they have put it among their own goods.
Se paske pèp Izrayèl la peche, yo pa respekte kontra mwen te pase ak yo a ak lòd mwen te ba yo. Yo pran nan bagay pou yo te detwi yo. Yo vòlò yo, yo kache yo, yo mete yo nan zafè pa yo.
12 Therefore cannot the sons of Israel stand before their enemies, their back, do they turn before their enemies, because they have become devoted, —I will no more be with you, except ye destroy the devoted thing out of your midst.
Se poutèt sa, pèp Izrayèl la p'ap ka kanpe devan lènmi l' yo. Yo gen pou yo kouri devan lènmi yo, paske koulye a se yo menm ki gen pou mouri. Mwen p'ap kanpe la avèk yo ankò, si bagay mwen te ban nou lòd pa pran an nou pa wete l' nan mitan nou pou nou detwi l' tou.
13 Up! hallow the people, and thou shalt say, Hallow yourselves by to-morrow, —for, Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel: A devoted thing, is in the midst of thee O Israel, Thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye have put away the devoted thing out of your midst.
Leve non! Fè sèvis pou mete pèp la nan kondisyon pou sèvi m'. W'a di yo pou yo pare kò yo pou yo ka nan kondisyon fè sèvis pou mwen denmen, paske mwen menm, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, men sa mwen di: Nou menm pèp Izrayèl, nou gen nan mitan nou bagay mwen te ban nou lòd detwi. Nou p'ap ka kenbe tèt ak lènmi nou yo si nou pa wete l' nan mitan nou.
14 Therefore shall ye be brought near in the morning by your tribes, —and it shall be that—the tribe which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by families, and the family which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by households, and the household which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, man by man;
Se konsa, denmen maten, nou tout n'ap vini, branch fanmi pa branch fanmi. Branch fanmi Seyè a va denonse a va pwoche fanmi pa fanmi. Nan fanmi Seyè a va denonse a, chèf fanmi yo va pwoche yonn apre lòt avèk moun pa yo. Chèf fanmi Seyè a va denonse a va fè moun pa l' yo pwoche grenn pa grenn.
15 and it shall be, that—He that is seized with the devoted thing, shall be burned with fire, he and all that he hath, —because he hath transgressed the covenant of Yahweh, and because he hath wrought impiety in Israel.
Moun y'a jwenn avèk bagay la gen pou mouri boule nan dife, ansanm ak tout fanmi l' ak tou sa li genyen, paske li pa respekte kontra Seyè a te pase ak pèp la. Se yon gwo wont pou tout pèp Izrayèl la.
16 So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel near by their tribes, —and, the tribe of Judah, was seized;
Nan denmen maten vre, Jozye leve byen bonè, li fè tout pèp Izrayèl la pwoche vin jwenn li, branch fanmi pa branch fanmi. Se branch fanmi Jida a Seyè a te denonse.
17 and he brought near the family of Judah, and, the family of the Zarhites, was seized, —and he brought near the family of the Zarhites, man by man, and, Zabdi, was seized;
Li fè fanmi Jida yo vin jwenn li yonn apre lòt. Se fanmi Zerak la Seyè a te denonse. Li fè tout chèf fanmi Zerak yo vin jwenn li yonn apre lòt ak tout fanmi yo. Se Zabdi Seyè a te denonse.
18 and he brought near his household, man by man, —and, Achan son of Carmi son of Zabdi son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was seized.
Zabdi fè tout moun pa l' yo pwoche grenn pa grenn. Se konsa Seyè a denonse Akan, pitit Kami an. Kami te pitit Zabdi, Zabdi te pitit Zerak, yo tout te fè pati branch fanmi Jida a.
19 And Joshua said unto Achan—My son give I pray thee glory unto Yahweh God of Israel and make to him confession, —and tell me I pray thee what thou hast done, do not hide it from me.
Jozye di Akan konsa: -Pitit mwen, fè lwanj Seyè a! Moutre ou gen respe pou Bondye pèp Izrayèl la! Koulye a, di m' kisa ou fè. Pa kache m' anyen.
20 And Achan answered Joshua and said, —Of a truth, I, have sinned against Yahweh God of Israel, and, thus and thus, have I done:
Akan reponn li: -Se vre wi. Se mwen ki peche kont Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la. Men sa m' fè.
21 When I saw among the spoil a certain goodly mantle of Babylonia and two hundred shekels of silver and a certain wedge of gold—fifty shekels the weight thereof, then I coveted them, then I took them, —and, there they are, hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.
Nan bagay nou te pran apre batay la, mwen te wè yon bèl manto ki te soti lavil Babilòn, desan (200) pyès an ajan ki te peze wit liv antou, ak yon gwo moso lò ki te peze de liv. Mwen te sitèlman anvi yo, mwen pran yo. Mwen fouye yon twou nan mitan tant kote m' rete a, mwen antere yo ladan l', avèk pyès ajan yo anba nèt.
22 So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent, —and, there it was, hid in his tent, and, the silver, under it.
Jozye voye kèk mesaje ki kouri al nan tant Akan an. Yo jwenn tout bagay yo nan twou a avèk pyès ajan yo anba nèt.
23 And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them in unto Joshua, and unto all the sons of Israel, —and poured them out before Yahweh.
Yo pran yo, yo soti avèk yo nan tant lan. Yo pote yo bay Jozye ak tout pèp Izrayèl la. Yo mete yo atè devan Seyè a.
24 And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan—son of Zerah, and the silver and the mantle and the wedge of gold, and his sons and his daughters, and his oxen and his asses and his sheep and his tent, and all that he had, and brought them up the valley of Achor.
Jozye, ansanm ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, pran Akan, pyès ajan yo, manto a, moso lò a ansanm ak pitit fi l' yo, pitit gason l' yo, bèlfi li yo, bèf li yo, bourik li yo, mouton l' yo ak tout lòt bagay li te genyen, yo mennen yo nan Fon Malè.
25 And Joshua said—Why hast thou troubled us? Yahweh, will trouble thee, this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned them up with fire, and covered them with stones;
Epi Jozye di Akan konsa: -Poukisa ou rale tout malè sa a sou tèt nou? Jòdi a, Seyè a pral fè malè tonbe sou ou! Epi tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo pran wòch, yo kalonnen yo jouk yo touye yo. Yo boule tout bagay yo nan dife. Yo touye tout fanmi l' yo ak bèt li yo ak koutwòch.
26 yea they raised over him a great heap of stones [which remaineth] until this day. And Yahweh turned from the fierceness of his anger, —for which cause, hath the name of that place been called—The Valley of Achor, until this day.
Yo mete yon gwo pil wòch sou yo. Gwo pil wòch sa a la jouk jòdi a. Se poutèt sa, jouk jòdi a, yo rele kote sa a Fon Malè. Se konsa Seyè a te sispann move sou pèp la.
