Joshua 22
1 In the same tyme Josue clepide men of Ruben, and men of Gad, and half the lynage of Manasses,
Lè sa a, Jozye fè rele tout moun nan branch fanmi Woubenn, nan branch fanmi Gad ak nan mwatye branch fanmi Manase a, li reyini yo,
2 and seide to hem, Ye han do alle thingis whiche Moises, `seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide to you, also ye obeieden to me in alle thingis;
li di yo: -Nou fè tou sa Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, te ban nou lòd fè a. Nou te koute m' chak fwa mwen te mande nou fè kichòy.
3 nether ye han lefte youre britheren in mych tyme til in to present dai, and ye kepten the comaundement of youre Lord God.
Depi nan konmansman rive jòdi a, nou pa lage moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou yo, nou te fè tou sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te mande nou fè.
4 Therfor for youre Lord God yaf reste and pees to youre britheren, as he bihiyte, turne ye ayen, and go ye in to youre tabernaclis, and in to the loond of youre possessioun, which lond Moyses, the `seruaunt of the Lord, yaf to you biyende Jordan;
Koulye a, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ba yo lapè jan li te di yo a. Se konsa, nou mèt tounen al lakay nou, nan peyi ki pou nou an, peyi Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, te ban nou lòt bò larivyè Jouden.
5 so onely that ye kepe bisili, and fille in werk the comaundement and lawe, `which lawe Moises, the `seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide to you; that ye loue youre Lord God, and go in alle hise weies, and kepe hise heestis, and cleue to hym and serue him in al youre herte, and in al youre soule.
Sèl bagay n'ap mande nou, se pou nou obeyi kòmandman ak lalwa Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, te ban nou an. Se pou nou renmen Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Se pou nou toujou mache nan chemen li mete devan nou an. Se pou nou fè tou sa l' mande nou fè. Se pou nou kenbe pye l' fèm. Se pou nou sèvi l' ak tout kè nou ak tout nanm nou.
6 And Josue blesside hem, and lefte hem, whiche turneden ayen in to her tabernaclis.
Apre sa, Jozye ba yo benediksyon, li voye yo ale. Epi, y' al lakay yo.
7 Sotheli Moyses hadde youe possessioun in Basan to the half lynage of Manasses; and therfor to the half lynage that lefte Josue yaf part among her othere britheren biyendis Jordan, at the west coost therof. And whanne Josue leet hem go in to her tabernaclis, and hadde blessid hem,
Moyiz te pran peyi Bazan an, li te bay mwatye nan branch fanmi Manase a. Jozye menm te bay lòt mwatye branch fanmi an yon pòsyon tè nan peyi ki sou bò solèy kouche larivyè Jouden an ansanm ak lòt branch fanmi pèp la. Lè Jozye t'ap voye premye mwatye moun Manase yo ale lakay yo, lè li fin beni yo,
8 he seyde to hem, With myche catel and richessis turne ye ayen to youre seetis; with siluer and gold, and bras, and yrun, and myche clothing; departe ye the prey of enemyes with youre britheren.
li di yo konsa: -N'ap tounen lakay nou avèk anpil richès, avèk anpil bèt, avèk anpil bagay fèt an ajan, an lò, an kwiv, an fè, ansanm ak anpil rad. Separe avèk moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou yo tou sa nou te pran nan men lènmi nou yo nan lagè.
9 And the sones of Ruben, and the sones of Gad, and `half the lynage of Manasses turneden ayen, and yeden fro the sones of Israel fro Silo, which is set in the lond of Canaan, that thei schulden entre in to Galaad, the lond of her possessioun, which thei gaten bi `comaundement of the Lord in the hond of Moises.
Se konsa, moun branch fanmi Woubenn yo, moun branch fanmi Gad yo ak mwatye moun nan branch fanmi Manase yo tounen tounen yo lakay yo. Yo kite rès pèp Izrayèl la lavil Silo nan peyi Kanaran, y' al nan peyi Galarad, nan peyi yo te ba yo a, dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz pou yo.
10 And whanne thei hadden come to the litle hillis of Jordan, in to the lond of Canaan, thei bildiden bisidis Jordan an auter of greetnesse ouer comyn mesure.
Lè moun Woubenn yo, moun Gad yo ak mwatye moun Manase yo rive devan larivyè Jouden, sou bò peyi Kanaran an, yo bati yon kokenn chenn lotèl sou rivaj la.
11 And whanne the sones of Israel hadden herd this, and certeyn messangeris hadden teld to hem, that the sones of Ruben, and of Gad, and the half lynage of Manasses hadden bildid an auter in the lond of Canaan, on the heepis of Jordan, ayens the sones of Israel,
Lòt moun pèp Izrayèl yo vin konn sa. Moun te vin di yo: -Men moun Woubenn yo, moun Gad yo ak mwatye moun Manase yo bati yon lotèl toupre larivyè Jouden sou fwontyè peyi Kanaran an, sou bò peyi moun Izrayèl yo.
12 alle camen togidir in Silo, that thei schulden stie, and fiyte ayens hem.
Lè pèp Izrayèl la vin konn sa, tout moun sanble lavil Silo pou y' al goumen ak moun Woubenn yo, moun Gad yo ak lòt mwatye moun Manase yo.
13 And in the meene tyme thei senten to hem in to the lond of Galaad, Fynees, preest,
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo voye Fineas, pitit gason Eleaza, prèt la, bò kote moun Woubenn yo, moun Gad yo ansanm ak mwatye moun Manase yo nan pèyi Galarad.
14 the sone of Eleazar, and ten princes with hym; of ech lynage o prince.
Yo te pran dis chèf, yonn pou chak branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la, yo voye yo avèk Fineas. Chèf sa yo, se moun ki te alatèt branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo.
15 Whiche camen to the sones of Ruben, and of Gad, and of the half lynage of Manasses, in to the lond of Galaad, and seiden to hem,
Se konsa, mesye sa yo rive bò moun Woubenn yo, moun Gad yo ak mwatye moun Manase yo nan peyi Galarad, epi yo di yo:
16 Al the puple of the Lord sendith these thingis; What is this trespassyng? Whi han ye forsake the Lord God of Israel, and han bildid a cursid auter, and han go awei fro the worschiping of hym?
-Men sa tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo voye di nou: Ki bagay lèd sa a nou fè konsa kont Bondye pep Izrayèl la? Poukisa jòdi a nou vire do bay Seyè a, n' al bati yon lotèl pou tèt pa nou? Poukisa nou leve kont Seyè a jòdi a?
17 Whether it is litil to you that ye synneden in Belfegor, and the wem of this trespas dwellith in you til in to present dai, and many of the puple felden doun?
Chonje peche nou te fè bò Peyò a, lè Seyè a te pini pèp li a. Jouk koulye a n'ap soufri pou bagay sa a toujou. Sa pa kont toujou?
18 And to day ye han forsake the Lord, and to morewe, that is, in tyme to comynge, the ire of hym schal be feers ayens al Israel.
Men jòdi a, n'ap vire do bay Seyè a ankò. Si nou leve kont Seyè a jòdi a, denmen se sou tout pèp Izrayèl la li pral fache.
19 That if ye gessen, that the lond of youre possessioun is vncleene, passe to the lond, `in which the tabernacle of the Lord is, and dwelle ye among vs, oneli that ye go not awei fro the Lord, and fro oure felouschipe, bi an auter bildid outakun the auter of oure Lord God.
Si nou wè peyi yo ban nou an pa bon pou fè sèvis Bondye, pito nou vin bò isit la nan peyi Seyè a, kote kay Seyè a ye a. Mande pou yo ban nou yon pòsyon pou nou ladan l'. Men, pa leve kont Seyè a, ni pa vire do ban nou. Piga nou kite lotèl Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou n' al bati yon lòt lotèl.
20 Whether not Achar, the sone of Zare, passide the comaundement of the Lord, and his ire felde on al the puple of Israel? And he was o man; and we wolden that he aloone hadde perischid in his trespas.
Chonje Akan, pitit gason Zera a, lè li te derefize swiv lòd Seyè a te bay pou bagay nou te fèt pou detwi nèt yo. Lè sa a, se tout pèp Izrayèl la nèt wi, Seyè a te pini. Se pa Akan sèlman ki te peye pou sa l' te fè a.
21 And the sones of Ruben, and of Gad, and of half the lynage of Manasses, answeriden to the princes of the message of Israel,
Lè sa a, moun Woubenn yo, moun Gad yo ak mwatye moun Manase yo pran lapawòl, yo reponn chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl la. Yo di yo:
22 The strongeste Lord God hym silf of Israel knowith, and Israel schal vndirstonde togidere; if we bildiden this auter for entent of trespassyng, `that is, of ydolatrye, he kepe not vs, but punysche in present time;
-Seyè a, Bondye ki gen plis pouvwa pase tout lòt bondye yo, konnen se pa paske nou leve kont li, ni paske nou vle vire do ba li kifè nou bati lotèl sa a. Li konnen sa, epi se pou l' fè pèp Izrayèl la konn sa tou. Si se pou rezon sa yo nou te moute lotèl sa a, se pou l' kite yo touye nou jòdi a menm.
23 and if we diden bi that mynde, that we schulden putte theronne brent sacrifice, and sacrifice, and pesible sacrifices, he seke, and deme;
Si nou bati lotèl sa a pou nou vire do bay Seyè a, pou nou ka gen lotèl pa nou pou boule bèt n'ap ofri yo sou li, oswa pou fè lòt ofrann jaden nou yo, osinon ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi, se pou Seyè a mande nou kont pou sa nou fè a.
24 and not more `bi that thouyt and tretyng that we seiden, Youre sones schulen seie `to morew to oure sones, What is to you and to the Lord God of Israel? Ye sones of Ruben,
Pou di vre, nou te fè l' paske nou te pè pou denmen pitit pitit nou menm moun pèp Izrayèl bò lòt bò a pa di pitit pitit pa nou yo bò isit la: Nou pa gen anyen pou nou wè ak Seyè a.
25 and ye sones of Gad, the Lord hath set a terme, the flood Jordan, bitwixe vs and you; and therfor ye han not part in the Lord; and bi this occasioun youre sones schulen turne awei oure sones fro the drede of the Lord. Therfor we gessiden betere,
Seyè a mete larivyè Jouden an tankou yon limit nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la yon bò ak moun Woubenn yo ak moun Gad yo yon bò. Se sa ki fè moun Woubenn yo ak moun Gad yo pa gen anyen pou yo wè ak Seyè a. Konsa pitit moun pèp Izrayèl yo va lakòz pitit moun Woubenn yo ak pitit moun Gad yo sispann gen krentif pou Seyè a.
26 and seiden, Bilde we an auter to vs, not in to brent sacrifices, nethir to sacrifices to be offrid,
Lè sa a nou di: Bon! Nou pral bati yon lotèl, nou pa pral boule ofrann ni touye ankenn bèt sou li.
27 but in to witnessyng bitwixe vs and you, and bitwixe oure children and youre generacioun, that we serue the Lord, and that it be of oure riyt to offre brent sacrifices, and sacrifices, and pesible sacrifices; and that youre sones seie not to morewe to oure sones, No part in the Lord is to you.
Sèlman, se pou lotèl sa a sèvi yon mak pou nou tout ki la koulye a ak pou pitit nou yo, pou fè nou chonje se Seyè a nou sèvi avèk ofrann boule nou yo, avèk bèt nou touye yo, avèk ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi nou yo. Konsa denmen, pitit moun pèp Izrayèl yo p'ap ka di pitit pa nou yo: Wi, nou pa gen anyen pou nou wè ak Seyè a.
28 And if `youre sones wolen seie this, `oure sones schulen answere hem, Lo! the auter of the Lord, which oure fadris maden, not in to brent sacrifices, nether in to sacrifice, but in to oure and your witnessing euerlastinge.
Nou te fè lide si yon jou yon moun ta vin di nou bagay konsa, osinon ta vin pale konsa ak pitit nou yo, n'a ka reponn yo: Gade! Men lotèl zansèt nou yo te bati. Li pòtre ak lotèl Seyè a. Se pa t' pou boule ofrann, ni pou touye ankenn bèt sou li. Men, se te yon mak pou fè nou tout chonje sak te pase!
29 Fer be this trespas fro vs, that we go awei fro the Lord, and forsake hise steppis, bi an auter bildid to brent sacrifices, and sacrifices, and sacrifices of preisyng to be offrid, outakun the auter of oure `Lord God, which is bildid bifore his tabernacle.
Nou pa janm fè lide leve kont Seyè a, ni vire do ba li. Nou pa bati yon lotèl jòdi a pou nou boule bèt nou yo, ni pou fè ofrann jaden nou yo, ni pou touye bèt nou ofri yo. Nou p'ap janm bati yon lòt lotèl ki pou ranplase lotèl Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki kanpe devan kay kote l' rete a.
30 And whanne these thingis weren herd, Fynees, preest, and the princes of message of Israel, that weren with hym, weren plesyd; and thei resseyueden gladli the wordis of the sones of Ruben, and of Gad, and of the half lynage of Manasses.
Lè Fineas, prèt la, chèf pèp la ak chèf branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl ki te ale avè l' yo tande sa moun Gad, moun Woubenn ak moun Manase yo te di yo, sa te fè yo plezi anpil.
31 And Finees, preest, the sone of Eleazar, seide to hem, Now we wyten, that the Lord is with you; for ye ben alien fro this trespassyng, and ye han delyuered the sones of Israel fro the hond, `that is, punyschyng, of the Lord.
Lè sa a, Fineas, pitit gason Eleaza, prèt la, pale ak yo, li di yo konsa: -Koulye a nou konnen Seyè a avèk nou vre, paske nou pa t' chache vire do ba li. Se konsa nou sove pèp Izrayèl la anba chatiman Seyè a.
32 And Fynees turnede ayen with the princes fro the sones of Ruben and of Gad, fro the lond of Galaad to the coost of Canaan, to the sones of Israel; and he telde to hem.
Apre sa, Fineas, pitit Eleaza, prèt la, ak tout chèf yo kite moun Woubenn yo ak moun Gad yo nan peyi Galarad, yo tounen nan peyi Kanaran al jwenn rès pèp Izrayèl la. Yo rapòte yo repons lòt moun yo te ba yo a.
33 And the word pleside to alle men herynge; and the sones of Israel preisiden God, and seiden, that no more `thei schulden stie ayens hem, and fiyte, and do awei the lond of her possessioun.
Sa te fè pèp Izrayèl la plezi anpil: yo fè lwanj Bondye. Depi lè sa a, yo pa janm pale ankò sou keksyon al atake moun Woubenn yo ak moun Gad yo ni sou keksyon al detwi peyi moun sa yo.
34 And the sones of Ruben and the sones of Gad clepiden the auter, which thei hadden bildid, Oure Witnessyng, that the Lord hym silf is God.
Moun branch fanmi Woubenn yo ak moun branch fanmi Gad yo rele lotèl la Temwen, paske yo t'ap di: L'a sèvi temwen devan nou tout se Seyè a ki Bondye.
