Judges 1
1 And it came to pass, after the death of Joshua, that the sons of Israel asked of Yahweh, saying, —Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites, first, to make war upon them?
Apre Jozye mouri, pèp Izrayèl la mande Seyè a: -Nan tout branch fanmi nou yo, kilès ladan yo ki pou al atake moun Kanaran yo anvan?
2 And Yahweh said—Judah, shall go, —lo! I have delivered the land into his power.
Seyè a reponn yo: -Se branch fanmi Jida a ki pou premye ale. Se mwen menm k'ap lage tout peyi a nan men yo.
3 Then said Judah, unto Simeon his brother—Come up with me into the territory allotted me, and let us make war on the Canaanites, then will, I also, go with thee, into thy territory. So Simeon went with him.
Moun Jida yo di moun Simeyon yo konsa: -Ann al ansanm ak nou nan pòsyon tè yo ban nou an, nou menm moun Jida yo. Enpi n'a mete ansanm pou goumen ak moun Kanaran yo. Apre sa, nou menm moun Jida yo, n'a ale ansanm ak nou nan pòsyon tè yo ban nou an, nou menm moun Simeyon yo. Se konsa, moun Simeyon yo ale ansanm ak
4 And Judah went up, and Yahweh delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, —and they smote them in Bezek, ten thousand men.
moun Jida yo, yo moute al goumen. Seyè a lage moun Kanaran yo ak moun Ferezi yo nan men yo. Yo bat yon lame dimil (10.000) sòlda nan lavil Bezèk.
5 And they found Adoni-bezek in Bezek, and fought with him, —and smote the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Yo jwenn Adonibezèk l'a tou. Yo goumen avè l'. Yo bat moun Kanaran yo ak moun Ferezi yo byen bat.
6 But Adoni-bezek fled, and they pursued him, —and took him, and cut off his thumbs, and his great toes.
Adonibezèk te kouri pou yo. Yo kouri dèyè l', yo mete men sou li, epi yo koupe de dwèt gwopous li yo ak de gwo tèt zòtèy pye l' yo.
7 Then said Adoni-bezek—Seventy kings, with their thumbs and great toes cut off, have been picking up crumbs under my table, as I have done, so, hath God requited me. And they brought him into Jerusalem, and he died there.
Lè sa a, Adonibezèk di: -Mwen te koupe dwèt gwopous ak gwo tèt zòtèy pye swasanndis wa. Yo te konn ranmase kras manje ki tonbe anba tab mwen. Jòdi a, Bondye fè m' sa m' te fè yo a. Yo mennen msye lavil Jerizalèm. Se la li mouri.
8 And the sons of Judah made war upon Jerusalem, and captured it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, —and, the city, they set on fire.
Moun fanmi Jida yo al atake lavil Jerizalèm, epi yo pran l'. Yo touye dènye moun ki te rete la, lèfini yo mete dife ladan l'.
9 And, afterwards, the sons of Judah went down to make war upon the Canaanites, —dwelling in the hill country, and in the south, and in the lowland.
Apre sa, y' al goumen ak moun Kanaran ki t'ap viv nan mòn yo ak nan pye mòn yo nan Negèv la.
10 And Judah went against the Canaanites who were dwelling in Hebron, now, the name of Hebron, formerly, was Kiriath-arba, —and they smote Sheshai and Ahiman, and Talmai.
Moun Jida yo atake moun Kanaran ki te rete lavil Ebwon, ki te rele anvan sa Kiriyat Aba. Yo bat Chechayi, Ayiman ak Talmayi.
11 And he went from thence, against the inhabitants of Debir, —now, the name of Debir, formerly, was Kiriath-sepher.
Yo kite Ebwon, yo mache al atake moun ki te rete lavil Debi yo. Nan tan lontan yo te rete lavil sa a Kiriyat-Sefè.
12 And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and captureth it, I will give unto him Achsah my daughter, to wife.
Kalèb di: -Moun ki va resi pran lavil Kiriyat-Sefè a, m'ap marye l' ak Aksa, pitit fi mwen an.
13 Then Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, captured it, —and he gave him Achsah his daughter, to wife.
Se Otonyèl, pitit gason Kenaz, ti frè Kalèb la, ki te pran lavil la. Konsa, Kalèb ba li Aksa, pitit fi li a, pou madanm.
14 And it came pass, when she came, that she moved him to ask of her father a field, and, when she alighted from off the ass, Caleb said unto her—What aileth thee?
Lè Aksa rive lakay mari l', mari a di l' poukisa li pa mande papa l' yon bon jaden. Akza al jwenn Kalèb. Desann li desann bourik li, Kalèb mande l': -Sak genyen, pitit mwen?
15 And she said unto him—Give me a present; for, south land, hast thou given me, give me therefore pools of water. So Caleb gave her Upper-pools, and Lower-pools.
Akza reponn: -Mwen vin mande ou yon favè. Se ou menm ki voye m' al viv nan dezè Negèv la, se pou ou ban m' kote pou m' pran dlo tou. Se konsa Kalèb ba li Sous Dlo Anwo ak Sous Dlo Anba Negèv la.
16 Now, the sons of the Kenite, father-in-law of Moses, had come up from the city of palm-trees, with the sons of Judah, into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the south of Arad, —so they went and dwelt with the people.
Moun Kayen yo, fanmi bòpè Moyiz la, kite lavil Palmis. Yo moute ansanm ak moun Jida yo nan dezè peyi Jida a sou bò sid lavil Arad. Se la y' al rete ansanm ak moun Amalèk yo.
17 Then went Judah, with Simeon his brother, and they smote the Canaanites dwelling in Zephath, —and devoted it to destruction, and the name of the city was called Hormah.
Moun Jida yo ale ansanm ak moun Simeyon yo, yo bat moun Kanaran ki te rete lavil Zefa yo. Yo detwi lavil la, yo touye dènye moun ak dènye bèt ki te ladan l'. Yo boule yo tankou yon ofrann pou Seyè a. Yo chanje non lavil la, yo rele l' Oma.
18 And Judah captured Gaza with the boundaries thereof, and Ashkelon, with the boundaries thereof, —and Ekron, with the boundaries thereof.
Moun Jida yo pa t' pran lavil Gaza ak tout zòn ki sou zòd li, lavil Askalon ak tout zòn ki sou zòd li, lavil Ekwon ak tout zòn ki sou zòd li.
19 And it same to pass that Yahweh was with Judah, and he took possession of the hill country, —but did not dispossess the inhabitants of the vale, because they had, chariots of iron.
Seyè a te kanpe ak moun Jida yo, li fè yo pran tout mòn yo pou yo. Men, yo pa t' kapab mete moun ki nan laplenn yo deyò paske yo te gen cha lagè fèt an fè.
20 So they gave unto Caleb Hebron, as spake Moses, —and he drave out from thence the three sons of Anak.
Jan Moyiz te bay lòd la, yo pran lavil Ebwon bay Kalèb. Kalèb mete twa pitit gason Anak yo deyò nan lavil la.
21 But, the Jebusites dwelling in Jerusalem, the sons of Benjamin did not drive out, —but the Jebusites have dwelt with the sons of Benjamin, in Jerusalem, unto this day.
Men, moun branch fanmi Benjamen yo pa t' mete moun Jebis yo deyò nan lavil Jerizalèm. Se konsa moun Jebis yo rete ap viv ansanm ak moun Benjamen yo nan lavil Jerizalèm jouk jòdi a.
22 Then went up the house of Joseph—they also, —unto Bethel, —and, Yahweh, was with them.
Moun de branch fanmi Jozèf yo moute al atake lavil Betèl ki te rele Louz anvan sa. Seyè a te kanpe avèk yo tou.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel, —now, the name of the city, formerly, was, Luz.
Yo voye kèk moun an kachèt al wè jan sa ye nan lavil la.
24 So the watchers saw a man, coming forth from the city, —and they said unto him—Shew us, we pray thee, the way to get into the city, and we will deal with thee, in lovingkindness.
Moun yo te voye yo kontre yon nonm ki t'ap soti lavil la. Yo di l' konsa: -Moutre nou ki jan moun ka antre nan lavil la. Nou pwomèt ou nou p'ap fè ou anyen.
25 And he shewed them the way to get into the city, and they smote the city, with the edge of the sword, —but, the man and all his family, they let go.
Se konsa nonm lan moutre yo ki jan pou yo antre nan lavil la. Yo touye tout moun ki te nan lavil la, esepte nonm lan ansanm ak tout fanmi l'.
26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, —and built a city, and called the name thereof, Luz, that, is the name thereof, unto this day.
Apre sa, nonm lan pati ale nan peyi moun Et yo. Li bati yon lavil laba a, li rele l' Louz. Se konsa yo rele lavil la jouk jòdi a.
27 But Manasseh took not possession of Beth-shean and her towns, nor of Taanach and her towns, nor dispossessed the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam, and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo, and her towns, —but the Canaanites were determined to remain in this land;
Moun branch fanmi Manase yo pa t' rive mete tout moun deyò nan lavil Bèt Chean, nan lavil Tanak, nan lavil Dò, nan lavil Jibleyam, nan lavil Megibo ak nan tout ti bouk ki te sou kont yo. Konsa, moun Kanaran yo te toujou ap viv nan peyi a.
28 when Israel, however, had waxed strong, they put the Canaanites under tribute, —though they, dispossessed, them not.
Lè moun Izrayèl yo te vin pi fò, yo fòse moun Kanaran yo travay pou yo, men, yo pa janm mete yo deyò.
29 And, Ephraim, dispossessed not the Canaanites who were dwelling in Gezer, —so the Canaanites remained in their midst, in Gezer.
Moun branch fanmi Efrayim yo tou pa t' mete moun Kanaran yo deyò nan lavil Gezè. Se konsa, moun Kanaran yo rete viv la ansanm ak yo.
30 Zebulun, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol, —but the Canaanites remained in their midst, and came under tribute.
Moun branch fanmi Zabilon yo pa t' mete moun Kanaran yo deyò nan lavil Kitwon ak nan lavil Naalòl. Moun Kanaran yo te rete viv ansanm ak yo, men yo te blije travay pou moun Zabilon yo.
31 Asher, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Acco, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, —nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob;
Moun branch fanmi Asè yo pa t' mete moun Kanaran yo deyò nan lavil Sidon, lavil Alad, lavil Akzid, lavil Elba, lavil Afik ak lavil Reyòb.
32 but the Asherites dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, —for they dispossessed them not.
Se konsa, moun Asè yo t'ap viv ansanm ak moun Kanaran ki te rete nan peyi a, paske yo pa t' mete yo deyò.
33 Naphtali, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath, but they dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, —and, the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, and of Beth-anath, became theirs, under tribute.
Moun branch fanmi Nèftali yo pa t' mete moun Kanaran yo deyò nan lavil Bèt-Chemèch, ni nan lavil Bèt Anat. Yo te rete ansanm ak moun Kanaran ki te rete nan peyi a. Men, moun lavil Bèt-Chemèch ak moun lavil Bèt anat yo te blije travay pou yo.
34 And the Amorites forced the sons of Dan into the hill country, —for they suffered them not to come down into the vale;
Moun Amori yo menm te kwense moun fanmi Dann yo nan mòn yo. Yo pa t' kite yo desann nan plenn lan menm.
35 and, though the Amorites were determined to remain in the hill country of Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim, yet was the hand of the house of Joseph heavy, so that they came under tribute.
Se konsa, moun Amori yo rete rete yo nan mòn Erès, nan lavil Ayalon ak nan lavil Chalbim. Men, lè moun fanmi Jozèf yo rive donminen sou yo, yo fè yo travay pou yo.
36 And, the boundary of the Amorites, was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upwards.
Fwontyè peyi moun Amori yo te konmanse depi pas Eskòpyon yo, moute rive gwo Wòch.
