Deuteronomy 1
1 These bee the wordes which Moses spake vnto all Israel, on this side Iorden in the wildernesse, in the plaine, ouer against the red Sea, betweene Paran and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Di-zahab.
Men pawòl Moyiz te di tout pèp Izrayèl la lè yo te lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, nan dezè a, nan plenn Araba ki anfas Souf: Yo te gen dezè Paran an sou yon bò ak lavil Tofèl, Liban, Azewòt ak Dizaab sou lòt bò a.
2 There are eleuen dayes iourney from Horeb vnto Kadesh-barnea, by the way of mout Seir.
Pou mache soti mòn Sinayi rive Kadès-Banea, lè ou swiv wout ki pase nan mòn Seyi a, sa pran onz jou.
3 And it came to passe in the first day of the eleuenth moneth, in the fourtieth yeere that Moses spake vnto the children of Israel according vnto all that the Lord had giuen him in commandement vnto them,
Se premye jou nan onzyèm mwa karantyèm lanne depi yo te soti kite peyi Lejip la Moyiz te fè pale sa a ak pèp Izrayèl la, jan Seyè a te mande l' la.
4 After that he had slaine Sihon the king of the Amorites which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og king of Bashan, which dwelt at Ashtaroth in Edrei.
Lè sa a, Seyè a te fin bat Siyon, wa peyi Amori a, ki te rete Esbon, ak Og, wa peyi Bazan an, ki te rete Astawòt nan zòn Edreyi.
5 On this side Iorden in the lande of Moab began Moses to declare this lawe, saying,
Se antan pèp la te lòt bò larivyè Jouden, nan peyi Moab la, Moyiz tanmen esplike yo tou sa Seyè a te di. Li di yo konsa:
6 The Lord our God spake vnto vs in Horeb, saying, Ye haue dwelt long ynough in this mount,
-Lè nou te sou mòn Orèb la, nou chonje Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te pale ak nou. Li te di nou: Koulye a, nou rete kont nou sou mòn sa a.
7 Turne you and depart, and goe vnto the mountaine of the Amorites, and vnto all places neere thereunto in the plaine, in the mountaine, or in the valley: both Southwarde, and to the Sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and vnto Lebanon: euen vnto the great riuer, the riuer Perath.
Ranmase tout zafè nou pati. Ale nan mòn peyi Amori yo ak nan tout lòt peyi ki toupre l' yo, nan plenn Araba a, nan mòn yo, nan fon yo, nan Negèv la bò sid ak bò gwo lanmè Mediterane a. Ale nan peyi Kanaran an ak nan peyi Liban an jouk nou rive bò gwo larivyè Lefrat la.
8 Beholde, I haue set the land before you: go in and possesse that land which the Lord sware vnto your fathers, Abraham, Izhak, and Iaakob, to giue vnto them and to their seede after them.
Nou wè! Men m'ap ban nou tout peyi sa yo. Al pran posesyon peyi mwen menm Seyè a, mwen te pwomèt m'ap bay zansèt nou yo, Abraram, Izarak ak Jakòb, pou yo ak pou tout pitit yo ak pitit pitit yo apre yo.
9 And I spake vnto you the same time, saying, I am not able to beare you my selfe alone:
Menm lè sa a, mwen te di nou: Mwen pa kapab reskonsab nou tout pou kont mwen, chay la twòp pou mwen.
10 The Lord your God hath multiplied you: and beholde, ye are this day as the starres of heauen in nomber:
Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ban nou anpil pitit, kifè koulye a nou vin anpil, tankou zetwal nan syèl la.
11 (The Lord God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many moe as ye are, and blesse you, as he hath promised you)
Se pou Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, ban nou mil fwa plis pitit pase sa nou gen koulye a. Se pou l' beni nou jan li te pwomèt nou an.
12 Howe can I alone beare your combrance and your charge, and your strife?
Men, ki jan pou m' fè pote tout chay sa a pou kont mwen, pou m' jwenn solisyon pou tout pwoblèm nou, pou m' regle tout kont nou gen yonn ak lòt?
13 Bring you men of wisedome and of vnderstanding, and knowen among your tribes, and I will make them rulers ouer you:
Se poutèt sa, nan chak branch fanmi nou yo, chwazi kèk nèg ki gen lespri, ki gen bon konprann, ki konn lavi, m'a mete yo chèf pou dirije nou.
14 Then ye answered me and said, The thing is good that thou hast commanded vs to doe.
Lè sa a, nou te reponn mwen, nou te di m' konsa: Sa ou mande nou fè la a bon wi!
15 So I tooke the chiefe of your tribes wise and knowen men, and made them rulers ouer you, captaines ouer thousands, and captaines ouer hundreds, and captaines ouer fiftie, and captaines ouer tenne, and officers among your tribes.
Se konsa mwen pran nan chak branch fanmi nou yo moun ki gen lespri, moun ki konn lavi, mwen mete yo chèf pou dirije nou. Genyen mwen mete chèf sou mil gason, dòt sou san gason, dòt sou senkant gason, dòt ankò sou dis gason. Mwen te chwazi lòt chèf tou pou chak branch fanmi.
16 And I charged your iudges that same time, saying, Heare the controuersies betweene your brethren, and iudge righteously betweene euery man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.
Lè sa a, men sa mwen te mande chèf nou yo pou yo fè: Chache konnen lè gen kont nan mitan pèp la. N'a regle tout kont yon moun ka gen ak frè parèy li osinon ak moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou. N'a fè sa san patipri.
17 Ye shall haue no respect of person in iudgement, but shall heare the small aswell as the great: yee shall not feare the face of man: for the iudgement is Gods: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring vnto me, and I will heare it.
Nou p'ap nan achte figi lè n'ap jije yon bagay. Se pou nou jije tout moun menm jan, kit se yon ti malere, kit se yon grannèg. Nou pa bezwen pè pesonn paske n'ap jije dapre prensip Bondye bay. Lè se yon ka ki twò difisil pou nou, n'a pote l' vin devan mwen, m'a jije l' mwen menm.
18 Also I commanded you the same time all the things which ye should doe.
Se konsa, menm lè sa a, mwen te ban nou lòd, mwen te di nou sa pou n' fè ak sa pou n' pa fè.
19 Then we departed from Horeb, and went through all that great and terrible wildernesse (as yee haue seene) by the way of the mountaine of the Amorites, as the Lord our God commanded vs: and we came to Kadesh-barnea.
Apre sa, nou leve, nou kite mòn Orèb la. Jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou lòd la, nou mache nan tout gwo dezè ki gen anpil danje ladan l' lan, dezè nou te wè a, nou pran chemen pou n' al nan mòn peyi Amori yo, epi nou rive Kadès Banea.
20 And I saide vnto you, Yee are come vnto the mountaine of the Amorites, which the Lord our God doeth giue vnto vs.
Lè sa a, mwen di nou: Men nou rive nan mòn peyi Amori yo, peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou an.
21 Beholde, the Lord thy God hath layde the land before thee: go vp and possesse it, as the Lord the God of thy fathers hath saide vnto thee: feare not, neither be discouraged.
Gade, men peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou an. Ale non, pran peyi a pou nou, jan Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, te di l' la. Nou pa bezwen pè, kè nou pa pou janm kase.
22 Then ye came vnto me euery one, and said, We wil send men before vs, to search vs out the land and to bring vs word againe, what way we must go vp by, and vnto what cities we shall come.
Lè sa a nou tout, nou vin jwenn mwen, nou di m' konsa: Ann voye kèk nèg pami nou devan pou y' al wè ki jan peyi a ye. Y'a tounen vin esplike nou ki wout pou nou swiv ak nan ki lavil nou ka antre.
23 So the saying pleased me well, and I tooke twelue men of you, of euery tribe one.
Mwen te wè sa nou di m' lan se te bon koze. Se konsa mwen chwazi douz nèg, yonn nan chak branch fanmi.
24 Who departed, and went vp into the mountaine, and came vnto the riuer Eshcol, and searched out the land.
Yo pati, yo pran chemen mòn lan jouk yo rive nan Fon Echkòl: yo vizite tout zòn lan nèt.
25 And tooke of the fruite of the land in their hands, and brought it vnto vs, and brought vs worde againe, and sayd, It is a good land, which the Lord our God doeth giue vs.
Yo pran kèk fwi peyi a donnen, yo pote ban nou. Epi yo di nou peyi Seyè a ap ban nou an se yon bon venn tè.
26 Notwithstanding, ye would not go vp, but were disobedient vnto the commandement of the Lord your God,
Men, nou pa t' vle al ladan l'. Se konsa nou te derefize obeyi lòd Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou.
27 And murmured in your tentes, and sayd, Because the Lord hated vs, therefore hath hee brought vs out of the land of Egypt, to deliuer vs into the hand of the Amorites, and to destroy vs.
Nou antre lakay nou, nou pran plenyen. Epi nou di se vle Seyè a pa vle wè nou! Se poutèt sa li fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip pou l' lage nou nan men moun peyi Amori yo pou yo ka fini ak nou.
28 Whither shall we go vp? our brethren haue discouraged our hearts, saying, The people is greater, and taller then we: the cities are great and walled vp to heauen: and moreouer we haue seene the sonnes of the Anakims there.
Kote nou prale koulye a? Moun nou te voye yo dekouraje nou. Yo di nou moun ki nan peyi sa a pi fò pase nou, yo pi bèl wotè pase nou. Lavil yo gran anpil ak gwo ranpa byen wo ki rive jouk nan syèl la. Nou te menm wè kèk moun ras Anak yo la tou.
29 But I sayd vnto you, Dread not, nor be afrayd of them.
Men, mwen di nou: Kè nou pa bezwen kase, nou pa bezwen pè moun sa yo.
30 The Lord your God, who goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did vnto you in Egypt before your eyes,
Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap mache alatèt nou. Li pral goumen pou nou menm jan nou te wè l' fè l' la nan peyi Lejip
31 And in the wildernesse, where thou hast seene how the Lord thy God bare thee, as a man doeth beare his sonne, in all the way which ye haue gone, vntill ye came vnto this place.
ak nan dezè a. Nou wè ki jan sou tout wout la li pa janm lage nou, tankou yon papa ki pa janm lage pitit li, jouk nou rive bò isit la.
32 Yet for all this ye did not beleeue the Lord your God,
Men, atout mwen te di nou sa, nou pa t' vle mete konfyans nou nan Seyè a, Bondye nou an,
33 Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tentes in, in fire by night, that ye might see what way to goe, and in a cloude by day.
li menm ki te pran devan nou sou tout wout la pou l' te ka jwenn kote pou nou moute kan nou. Lannwit, li te mache devan nou nan yon poto dife. Lajounen, nan yon gwo nwaj li te moutre nou chemen pou nou pran.
34 Then the Lord heard the voyce of your wordes, and was wroth, and sware, saying,
Lè Seyè a tande jan nou t'ap plenyen, li te fache anpil, li fè sèman, li di:
35 Surely there shall not one of these men of this froward generation, see that good land, which I sware to giue vnto your fathers,
Pa gen yonn nan tout move sije sa yo k'ap viv koulye a k'ap antre nan bon peyi mwen te pwomèt m'ap bay zansèt nou yo,
36 Saue Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh: he shall see it, and to him will I giue the land that he hath troden vpon, and to his children, because he hath constantly followed the Lord.
an wetan Kalèb, pitit gason Jefoune a, ki va antre nan peyi sa a. M'a ba li peyi li te al espyonnen an, pou li ak pou pitit li yo, paske li te obeyi m' san gad dèyè.
37 Also the Lord was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt not goe in thither,
Nou lakòz Seyè a te fache ata avè m', epi li di m': Ou menm tou Moyiz, ou p'ap antre nan peyi a.
38 But Ioshua the sonne of Nun which standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: incourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherite it.
Se Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, k'ap sèvi avè ou la, ki va antre nan plas ou. Ankouraje l' tande, paske se li menm ki pou fè pèp Izrayèl la antre al pran peyi a.
39 Moreouer, your children, which ye sayd should be a praye, and your sonnes, which in that day had no knowledge betweene good and euill, they shall go in thither, and vnto them wil I giue it, and they shall possesse it.
Men, se pitit nou yo, sa nou di ki tapral tonbe anba men lènmi nou yo, timoun nou yo ki koulye a poko konnen sa ki byen ak sa ki mal, se yo menm ki pral antre nan peyi a. Se yo menm mwen pral bay peyi a, se yo menm ki pral rete ladan l'.
40 But as for you, turne backe, and take your iourney into the wildernesse by the way of the red Sea.
Men nou menm, tounen tounen nou nan dezè a! Pran chemen Lanmè Wouj la ankò!
41 Then ye answered and sayd vnto me, We haue sinned against the Lord, we wil go vp, and fight, according to all that the Lord our God hath commanded vs: and ye armed you euery man to the warre, and were ready to goe vp into the mountaine.
Lè sa a nou reponn mwen: Nou rekonèt nou peche kont Seyè a. Nou prale, epi n'a goumen jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou lòd la. Epi nou leve nou pran zam nou. Nou te kwè sa tapral fasil pou nou pran mòn yo.
42 But the Lord said vnto me, Say vnto them, Goe not vp, neither fight, (for I am not among you) least ye fall before your enemies.
Men, Seyè a di m' avèti nou: Piga n' al atake, piga n' al fè lènmi nou yo bat nou, paske li p'ap kanpe avèk nou.
43 And when I told you, ye would not heare, but rebelled against the commandement of the Lord, and were presumptuous, and went vp into the mountaine.
Mwen te pale nou, men nou pa t' koute m', nou derefize swiv lòd Seyè a te ban nou. Nou te konprann nou te fò kont kò nou pou n' te al pran mòn lan.
44 Then the Amorites which dwelt in that mountaine came out against you, and chased you (as bees vse to doe) and destroied you in Seir, euen vnto Hormah.
Lè sa a, moun peyi Amori yo ki te rete nan mòn yo soti vin kontre ak nou. Tankou yon desen myèl, yo kouri dèyè nou, yo bat nou byen bat nan tout peyi Seyi a rive jouk Oma.
45 And when ye came againe, ye wept before the Lord, but the Lord would not heare your voyce, nor incline his eares vnto you.
Lè nou tounen, nou kriye nan pye Seyè a, men Seyè a pa t' koute sa nou t'ap di l', li pa t' pran ka nou.
46 So ye abode in Kadesh a long time, according to the time that ye had remained before.
Se poutèt sa nou te blije pase tout tan sa a nan zòn Kadès la.
