Resansman 14
1 Lè sa a, pèp la pran rele byen fò, yo pase tout nwit la ap kriye san rete.
All the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
2 Yo tout t'ap bougonnen sou Moyiz ak Arawon. Yo vin di yo konsa: -Pito nou te mouri nan peyi Lejip osinon nan dezè a!
All the children of Israel [God prevails] murmured against Moses [Drawn out] and against Aaron [Light-bringer]. The whole congregation said to them, “We wish that we had died in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], or that we had died in this wilderness!
3 Poukisa Seyè a mennen nou nan peyi sa a? Koulye a, yo pral touye nou nan lagè, yo pral pran madanm ak pitit nou yo fè yo tounen esklav. Pa pito nou tounen nan peyi Lejip?
Why does Adonai bring us to this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be captured or killed! Wouldn’t it be better for us to teshuvah ·completely return· into Egypt [Abode of slavery]?”
4 Yonn t'ap di lòt: -Ann chwazi yon lòt chèf! Ann tounen nan peyi Lejip!
They said to one another, “Let us make a captain, and let us teshuvah ·completely return· into Egypt [Abode of slavery].”
5 Lè Moyiz ak Arawon wè sa, yo tonbe fas atè devan tout pèp la ki te sanble la a.
Then Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer] fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails].
6 Lè sa a, de nan mesye espyon yo, Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, ak Kalèb, pitit gason Jefoune a, chire rad ki te sou yo sitèlman yo te fache.
Joshua [Salvation Yah] the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of those who spied out the land, tore their clothes.
7 Epi yo di pèp la: -Peyi nou te al vizite a se yon bon bon peyi.
They spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails], saying, “The land, which we passed through to spy it out, is an exceeding good land.
8 Si Seyè a vle fè sa pou nou, l'ap fè nou antre nan peyi a, l'ap ban nou li. Se yon peyi ki rich anpil, yon peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo.
If Adonai delights in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it to us; a land which flows with milk and honey.
9 Sèlman, pa kenbe tèt ak Seyè a! Nou pa bezwen pè moun k'ap viv nan peyi sa a. N'ap manje yo tankou kann. Bondye ki t'ap pwoteje yo a kouri mete deyò. Men Seyè a kanpe la avèk nou. Nou pa bezwen pè yo.
Only don’t rebel against Adonai, neither fear the people of the land; for they are bread for us. Their defense is removed from over them, and Adonai is with us. Don’t fear them.”
10 Lè sa a, tout pèp la ranmase wòch pou yo kalonnen Jozye ak Kalèb. Men, lamenm pouvwa Bondye a parèt anwo Tant Randevou a, li fè tout pèp la wè l'.
But all the congregation threatened to stone them with stones. The kavod Yahweh ·weighty glory of He sustains breathing· appeared in the Tent of Meeting to all the children of Israel [God prevails].
11 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Kilè pèp sa a va sispann meprize mwen? Kilè y'a soti pou yo fè m' konfyans? Gade tout bèl bagay mwen te fè pou yo. Malgre sa, yo pa vle kwè m' toujou!
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “How long will this people despise me? and how long will they not believe in me, for all the signs which I have worked among them?
12 M'ap voye yon sèl epidemi sou yo, m'ap touye yo tout. M'ap anpeche yo pran posesyon tè ki pou yo a. Men ou menm, m'ap fè ou tounen yon nasyon k'ap pi gwo, k'ap pi fò pase yo.
I will strike them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of you a nation greater and mightier than they.”
13 Men, Moyiz di Seyè a konsa: -Se ou menm ak fòs ponyèt ou ki te fè pèp Izrayèl la soti kite peyi Lejip la.
Moses [Drawn out] said to Adonai, “Then the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] will sh'ma ·hear obey· it; for you brought up this people in your might from among them.
14 Lè moun pèyi Lejip yo va vin konnen sa ou pral fè pèp la, y'a rakonte l' bay moun ki rete nan peyi Kanaran yo. Yo menm tou, yo deja konnen se ou menm, Seyè, ki kanpe la nan mitan pèp la, se ou menm ki parèt aklè devan je yo, se nwaj ou, Granmèt, ki rete anwo yo. Se ou menm ki t'ap mache devan yo lajounen nan yon gwo nwaj ki te gen fòm yon poto, lannwit nan yon gwo flanm dife ki te gen fòm yon poto tou.
They will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· that you Adonai are in the middle of this people; for you Adonai are seen face to face, and your cloud stands over them, and you go before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.
15 Koulye a, si ou rete konsa ou touye tout pèp ou a, moun lòt nasyon yo ki te tande pale ki kalite moun ou ye, yo pral di
Now if you killed this people as one man, then the nations which have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the fame of you will speak, saying,
16 se kapab ou pa t' kapab mennen pèp la nan peyi ou te fè sèman w'ap ba yo a kifè ou touye yo nan dezè a.
‘Because Adonai was not able to bring this people into the land which he swore to them, therefore he has slain them in the wilderness.’
17 Non. Seyè! Se koulye a pou ou fè wè gwo pouvwa ou la, jan ou te pwomèt l' a, lè ou te di:
Now please let the power of the Lord be great, according as you have spoken, saying,
18 Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, mwen pa an kòlè fasil, mwen p'ap janm sispann renmen nou. M'ap toujou padonnen sa nou fè ki mal ak sa nou te dwe fè nou pa fè. Men, mwen pa nan kase fèy kouvri sa ak pesonn. Si yon moun fè yon bagay mal, m'ap pini pitit li, pitit pitit li, ak pitit pitit pitit li yo pou sa li fè a, jouk sou twazyèm ak katriyèm jenerasyon.
‘Adonai is slow to anger, and abundant in cheshed ·loving-kindness·, forgiving iniquity and disobedience; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation.’
19 Tanpri, jan ou gen bon kè sa a, padonnen sa pèp la fè ki mal la, menm jan ou te pran pasyans ak yo depi yo kite peyi Lejip jouk yo rive isit la.
Please pardon the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of your cheshed ·loving-kindness·, and according as you have forgiven this people, from Egypt [Abode of slavery] even until now.”
20 Seyè a di: -M'ap padonnen yo, jan ou mande m' lan.
Adonai said, “I have pardoned according to your word:
21 Men, menm jan ou wè mwen vivan an, menm jan ou wè pouvwa mwen toupatou sou latè,
but in very deed, as I live, and as all the earth shall be filled with the kavod Yahweh ·weighty glory of He sustains breathing·;
22 okenn nan moun sa yo p'ap rive viv lontan ase pou yo antre nan peyi a. Yo te wè pouvwa mwen, yo te wè tout bèl bagay mwen te fè nan peyi Lejip ak nan dezè a. Men anpil fwa deja, yo chache wè jouk ki bò mwen ye ak yo, yo pa janm vle koute m' lè m' pale ak yo.
because all those men who have seen my glory, and my signs, which I worked in Egypt [Abode of slavery] and in the wilderness, yet have tempted me these ten times, and have not sh'ma ·heard obeyed· my voice;
23 Yo p'ap menm wè peyi mwen te sèmante mwen t'ap bay zansèt yo a. Yo tout ki vire do ban mwen yo, yo yonn p'ap wè peyi a.
surely they shall not see the land which I swore to their fathers, neither shall any of those who despised me see it.
24 Men, paske Kalèb, sèvitè m' lan, pa aji tankou yo, li swiv mwen san gad dèyè, m'ap fè l' antre nan peyi li te al rekonèt la. Pitit pitit li yo va pran peyi a pou yo.
But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and has followed me fully, him I will bring into the land into which he went. His offspring shall possess it.
25 Y'a rete nan plenn kote moun Amalèk yo ak moun Kanaran yo rete koulye a. Denmen n'ap fè bak, n'a tounen nan dezè a ankò nan direksyon Lanmè Wouj la.
Since the Amalekite [Descendant of Man who licks up] and the Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled] dwell in the valley, tomorrow turn, and go into the wilderness by the way to the Sea of Suf [Reed Sea].”
26 Apre sa, Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo konsa:
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out] and to Aaron [Light-bringer], saying,
27 -Kilè bann moun mechan sa yo va sispann bougonnen sou do mwen konsa? Mwen bouke tande jan moun pèp Izrayèl yo ap pale m' mal.
“How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, that murmur against me? I have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the murmurings of the children of Israel [God prevails], which they murmur against me.
28 Men sa pou ou di yo pou mwen: Se mwen menm menm, Seyè a, ki di sa. Menm jan nou wè m' vivan an, mwen fè sèman sa nou te di k'ap rive nou an, se li k'ap rive nou vre.
Tell them, ‘As I live, says Adonai, surely as you have spoken in my ears, so will I do to you.
29 Y'ap antere kadav nou tout nan dezè a. Nou tout ki t'ap bougonnen sou mwen yo, nou tout yo te konte lè resansman an, nou tout ki gen ventan ak sa ki pi gran yo, nou yonn p'ap antre nan peyi a.
Your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness; and all who were counted of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, who have murmured against me,
30 Dakò! Mwen te fè sèman mwen t'ap fè nou al rete nan peyi a. Men, nou yonn p'ap gen chans lan, esepte Kalèb, pitit gason Jefoune a, ak Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan.
surely you shall not come into the land, concerning which I swore that I would make you dwell therein, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua [Salvation Yah] the son of Nun.
31 Nou te di pitit pitit nou yo pral tonbe anba men lènmi nou yo. Men, se yo menm m'ap fè antre nan peyi nou menm nou refize al pran an.
But your little ones, that you said should be captured or killed, them I will bring in, and they shall know the land which you have rejected.
32 Men, nou menm y'ap antere kadav nou yo isit nan dezè a.
But as for you, your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness.
33 Pitit nou yo pral moute desann nan tout dezè a. Pandan karant lanne, y'a peye pou vire nou te vire do ban mwen an, jouk nou tout nèt n'a fin mouri nan dezè a.
Your children shall be wanderers in the wilderness forty years, and shall bear your prostitution, until your dead bodies are consumed in the wilderness.
34 Nou menm, n'a peye konsekans peche nou an pandan karant lanne, yon lanne pou chak jou nan karant jou nou te pase ap vizite peyi a. Lè sa a, n'a konnen sa sa vle di lè m' vire do bay moun.
After the number of the days in which you spied out the land, even forty days, for every day a year, you will bear your iniquities, even forty years, and you will know my alienation.’
35 Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa: Mwen fè sèman se konsa mwen pral aji ak bann moun sa yo ki mete tèt yo ansanm sou do m'. Yo tout gen pou yo disparèt nan dezè sa a. Wi, se la menm yo tout ap mouri.
I, Adonai, have spoken. I will surely do this to all this evil congregation, who are gathered together against me. In this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.”
36 Mesye Moyiz te voye al rekonèt peyi a te fè tout pèp la ap bougonnen sou Moyiz avèk move rapò yo te fè sou peyi a, lè yo te tounen an.
The men, whom Moses [Drawn out] sent to spy out the land, who teshuvah ·completely returned·, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up an evil report against the land,
37 Se konsa yon sèl maladi tonbe sou mesye sa yo ki te pale peyi a mal konsa. Yo tonbe, yo mouri frèt devan Seyè a.
even those men who brought up an evil report of the land, died by the plague before Adonai.
38 Nan douz mesye ki te al vizite peyi a, se de sèlman ki pa t' mouri: se te Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, ak Kalèb, pitit gason Jefoune a.
But Joshua [Salvation Yah] the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, remained alive of those men who went to spy out the land.
39 Lè Moyiz di moun pèp Izrayèl yo tout pawòl sa yo, sa te fè yo lapenn anpil.
Moses [Drawn out] told these words to all the children of Israel [God prevails], and the people mourned greatly.
40 Nan denmen maten, byen bònè, yo leve pou y' al janbe lòt bò mòn yo pou yo antre nan peyi a. Yo t'ap di: -Men nou! Nou pare pou n' ale kote Seyè a di pou n' ale a. Nou rekonèt sa nou te fè a mal.
They rose up early in the morning, and went up to the top of the mountain, saying, “Behold, we are here, and will go up to the place which Adonai has promised: for we have sinned.”
41 Men Moyiz di yo: -Pouki pou n'ap dezobeyi lòd Seyè a ankò? Sa p'ap mache pou nou non, fwa sa a!
Moses [Drawn out] said, “Why are you disobeying the order of Adonai? You shall not succeed!
42 Piga nou moute. Seyè a vire do ban nou, nou pa bezwen ale fè lènmi nou yo bat nou pou gremesi.
Don’t go up, for Adonai is not among you; that you not be struck down before your enemies.
43 Lè n'a rive devan moun Amalèk yo ak moun Kanaran yo, nou pral mouri nan batay la. Seyè a p'ap kanpe la avèk nou, paske nou te vire do ba li.
For there the Amalekite [Descendant of Man who licks up] and the Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled] are before you, and you shall fall by the sword, because you turned back from following Adonai, therefore Adonai will not be with you.”
44 Pèp la fè tèt di, yo moute moute yo sou mòn yo pou yo seye antre nan peyi a. Men, ni Bwat Kontra Seyè a, ni Moyiz pa deplase kote yo te ye nan kan an.
But they presumed to go up to the top of the mountain. Nevertheless, the ark of Adonai’s covenant and Moses [Drawn out] didn’t depart out of the camp.
45 Se konsa moun Amalèk yo ak moun Kanaran yo ki te rete nan mòn yo desann, yo bat yo, yo kouri dèyè yo jouk yon kote yo rele Oma.
Then the Amalekites [Descendants of Man who licks up] came down, and the Canaanites [Descendants of Humbled] who lived in that mountain, and struck them and beat them down, even to Hormah.
