< Deuteronomy 28 >

1 If thou shalt obey diligently the voyce of the Lord thy God, and obserue and do all his commandements, which I commande thee this day, then the Lord thy God wil set thee on high aboue all the nations of the earth.
Si nou koute Seyè a, Bondye nou an, si nou fè tou sa mwen ban nou lòd fè jòdi a, Seyè a va fè nou tounen nasyon ki pi gran pase tout lòt nasyon ki sou latè.
2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and ouertake thee, if thou shalt obey the voyce of the Lord thy God.
Wi, si nou koute Seyè a, Bondye nou an, men benediksyon l'ap vide sou nou:
3 Blessed shalt thou be in the citie, and blessed also in the fielde.
Seyè a va beni nou lavil kou andeyò.
4 Blessed shalbe the fruite of thy body, and ye fruite of thy ground, and the fruite of thy cattel, the increase of thy kine, and ye flocks of thy sheepe.
Seyè a va beni pitit nou yo, rekòt jaden nou yo, pòte bèf nou yo, pòte kabrit nou yo, pòte mouton nou yo ak pòte tout lòt bèt nou yo.
5 Blessed shalbe thy basket and thy dough.
Seyè a va beni rekòt ble nou ak rekòt farin nou.
6 Blessed shalt thou be, whe thou commest in, and blessed also when thou goest out.
Seyè a va beni nou nan tou sa n'ap fè, depi nan mete men jouk nou bout.
7 The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise against thee, to fall before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and shall flee before thee leuen wayes.
Seyè a va fè nou kraze tout lènmi ki va atake nou. Lè y'ap vin sou nou, y'a mache ansanm sou yon sèl chemen. Men, y'a gaye toupatou lè y'ap kraze rak pou nou.
8 The Lord shall command the blessing to be with thee in thy store houses, and in all that thou settest thine hande to, and wil blesse thee in the land which the Lord thy God giueth thee.
Seyè a va beni nou tout tan, l'a beni depo manje nou, l'a beni tou sa n'ap fè. L'a beni nou nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va ban nou an.
9 The Lord shall make thee an holy people vnto himself, as he hath sworne vnto thee, if thou shalt keepe the commandements of the Lord thy God, and walke in his wayes.
Si nou fè tou sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mande nou fè, si nou viv jan li vle nou viv la, n'a yon pèp k'ap viv apa nèt pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan l' te fè nou pwomès la.
10 Then all people of the earth shall see that the Name of the Lord is called vpon ouer thee, and they shalbe afrayde of thee.
Lè sa a, tout pèp sou latè va wè Seyè a te chwazi nou pou pote non l', y'a gen respè pou nou.
11 And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruite of thy body, and in the fruite of thy cattell, and in the fruite of thy grounde, in the land which the Lord sware vnto thy fathers, to giue thee.
Seyè a va kouvri nou ak benediksyon, l'a ban nou anpil pitit, anpil bèt ak anpil rekòt nan peyi Seyè a te pwomèt zansèt nou yo l'ap ban nou an.
12 The Lord shall open vnto thee his good treasure, euen the heauen to giue rayne vnto thy kind in due season, and to blesse all the worke of thine handes: and thou shalt lende vnto many nations, but shalt not borow thy selfe.
L'a rete nan syèl la, l'a louvri trezò li, l'a voye lapli sou peyi a lè sezon an va rive, l'a beni tout travay n'ap fè. N'a gen pou nou prete tout moun. Nou p'ap janm bezwen mande pesonn prete.
13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tayle, and thou shalt be aboue onely, and shalt not bee beneath, if thou obey the commandements of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to keepe and to do them.
Seyè a va mete nou devan, nou p'ap janm dèyè. N'a toujou anwo, nou p'ap janm anba, depi nou swiv tout lòd Seyè a, Bondye nou an, depi nou fè tou sa mwen mande nou fè jòdi a,
14 But thou shalt not decline from any of the wordes, which I command you this day, either to the right hand or to the left, to goe after other gods to serue them.
san nou pa janm kite chemen li mete devan nou an pou n' ale dèyè lòt bondye pou nou sèvi yo.
15 But if thou wilt not obey the voyce of the Lord thy God, to keepe and to do all his commandementes and his ordinances, which I command thee this day, then al these curses shall come vpon thee, and ouertake thee.
Men tou, si nou pa koute Seyè a, Bondye nou an, si nou pa fè tou sa mwen ban nou lòd fè jòdi a, si nou pa swiv regleman mwen ban nou yo, men madichon l'ap ban nou epi k'ap tonbe sou nou:
16 Cursed shalt thou bee in the towne, and cursed also in the fielde.
Madichon Bondye va tonbe sou nou nan lavil kou andeyò.
17 Cursed shall thy basket be, and thy dough.
Madichon Bondye va tonbe sou rekòt ble nou ak sou rekòt farin nou.
18 Cursed shall be the fruite of thy body, and the fruite of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flockes of thy sheepe.
Madichon Bondye va tonbe sou pitit nou yo, sou rekòt jaden nou yo, sou pòte bèf, pòte kabrit ak pòte mouton nou yo.
19 Cursed shalt thou be when thou commest in, and cursed also when thou goest out.
Madichon Bondye va tonbe sou tou sa n'ap fè, depi nan mete men jouk nou bout.
20 The Lord shall sende vpon thee cursing, trouble, and shame, in all that which thou settest thine hand to do, vntil thou be destroyed, and perish quickely, because of the wickednesse of thy workes whereby thou hast forsaken me.
Si nou fè bagay ki mal, si nou vire do bay Seyè a, l'ap voye tout kalite madichon sou nou: Nou p'ap konn sa pou n' fè, n'a gen kè sere nan tou sa n'ap fè jouk n'a rete konsa n'a fin disparèt nèt, paske nou te fè bagay ki mal, nou te vire do ba li.
21 The Lord shall make the pestilence cleaue vnto thee, vntill he hath consumed thee from the land, whither thou goest to possesse it.
Seyè a ap voye yon sèl move maladi po k'ap fini nèt ak nou nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou an.
22 The Lord shall smite thee with a consumption, and with the feuer, and with a burning ague, and with feruent heate, and with the sworde, and with blasting, and with the mildew, and they shall pursue thee vntill thou perish.
L'ap voye sou nou epidemi, move lafyèb, maladi anfle, chalè pou toufe moun, jouk n'a mouri. L'a voye chechrès, vèmen ak pichon pou detwi rekòt nou yo. Malè sa yo va tonbe sou nou jouk n'a fin disparèt nèt.
23 And thine heauen that is ouer thine head, shall be brasse, and the earth that is vnder thee, yron.
Syèl la p'ap bay yon degout lapli menm. Tè a va vin di kou wòch.
24 The Lord shall giue thee for the rayne of thy land, dust and ashes: euen from heauen shall it come downe vpon thee, vntil thou be destroyed.
Nan plas lapli, Seyè a va fè pousyè tè ak sab kouvri nou jouk nou mouri.
25 And the Lord shall cause thee to fall before thine enemies: thou shalt come out one way against them, and shalt flee seuen wayes before them, and shalt be scattered through all the kingdomes of the earth.
L'a fè lènmi nou yo bat nou. N'a pran yon sèl chemen ansanm pou n' atake yo. Men, n'a gaye toupatou lè n'a pran rak devan yo. Tout moun sou latè pral mete men nan tèt lè y'a wè sa ki rive nou.
26 And thy carkeis shall be meate vnto all foules of the ayre, and vnto the beasts of the earth, and none shall fray them away.
Lè n'a mouri, se zwazo ak bèt nan bwa ki pral manje kadav nou yo san p'ap gen pesonn pou pouse yo ale.
27 The Lord wil smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emeroids, and with the skab, and with the itche, that thou canst not be healed.
Seyè a va fè bouton leve sou tout kò nou, menm jan li te fè moun peyi Lejip yo, n'a gen apse, lagal, pyas, epi nou p'ap ka jwenn gerizon pou maladi po sa yo.
28 And ye Lord shall smite thee with madnes, and with blindnes, and with astonying of heart.
Seyè a va fè nou pèdi tèt nou, nou p'ap konprann sa n'ap fè, nou p'ap konnen kote pou n' mete kò nou.
29 Thou shalt also grope at noone daies, as the blinde gropeth in darknes, and shalt not prosper in thy wayes: thou shalt neuer but bee oppressed with wrong and be powled euermore, and no man shall succour thee.
Gwo midi, n'a tatonnen tankou avèg k'ap mache nan fènwa. Nou p'ap jwenn rannman nan ankenn travay n'ap fè. Tout tan moun ap malmennen nou, y'ap vòlè nou, lèfini p'ap gen pesonn pou pote nou sekou.
30 Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lye with her: thou shalt builde an house, and shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not eate the fruite.
N'a fiyanse ak yon fi, men se yon lòt gason ki va kouche ak li. N'a bati yon kay, men nou p'ap janm rete ladan l'. N'a plante yon jaden rezen, men nou p'ap janm jwi l'.
31 Thine oxe shalbe slayne before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eate thereof: thine asse shall be violently taken away before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheepe shalbe giuen vnto thine enemies, and no man shall rescue them for thee.
Y'a touye bèf nou yo la devan je nou, men nou p'ap ka mete yon ti moso nan vyann li nan bouch nou. Y'ap pran bourik nou nan bab nou al avè l', yo p'ap janm renmèt nou li. Y'a bay lènmi nou yo tout mouton nou yo, epi p'ap gen pesonn pou pote nou sekou.
32 Thy sonnes and thy daughters shalbe giuen vnto another people, and thine eyes shall still looke for them, euen till they fall out, and there shalbe no power in thine hand.
N'a wè ak je nou y'ap pran pitit gason ak pitit fi nou yo bay moun lòt nasyon. Tout lè n'a anvi wè yo ankò, men p'ap gen anyen nou ka fè pou sa.
33 The fruite of thy land and all thy labours shall a people, which thou knowest not, eate, and thou shalt neuer but suffer wrong, and violence alway:
Moun nou pa janm konnen va manje tou sa ki nan jaden nou ak tout pwofi travay nou. Se tout tan y'a malmennen nou, y'a maltrete nou.
34 So that thou shalt be madde for the sight which thine eyes shall see.
Lè n'a wè tout bagay sa yo rive nou, n'a pèdi tèt nou!
35 The Lord shall smite thee in the knees, and in the thighes, with a sore botche, that thou canst not be healed: euen from the sole of thy foote vnto the top of thine head.
Seyè a va ban nou yon sèl malenng nan jenou ak sou kwis janm nou ki p'ap janm geri. Bouton ap parèt sou tout kò nou, depi nan pye jouk nan tèt.
36 The Lord shall bring thee and thy King (which thou shalt set ouer thee) vnto a nation, which neither thou nor thy fathers haue knowen, and there thou shalt serue other gods: euen wood and stone,
Seyè a pral depòte nou ansanm ak tout wa nou te mete alatèt nou, nan yon peyi etranje ni nou menm ni zansèt nou yo pa t' janm konnen. Lè n'a rive la, n'a sèvi zidòl fèt an bwa ak zidòl fèt ak wòch.
37 And thou shalt be a wonder, a prouerbe and a common talke among all people, whither the Lord shall carie thee.
Nan tout peyi kote Seyè a pral gaye nou yo, moun pral sezi wè sa ki rive nou, y'a pase nou anba kont betiz, y'a fè chante sou nou.
38 Thou shalt carie out much seede into the fielde, and shalt gather but litle in: for the grashoppers shall destroy it.
N'a plante anpil grenn nan jaden nou, men n'a rekòlte yon ti kras, paske krikèt va manje pifò.
39 Thou shalt plant a vineyard, and dresse it, but shalt neither drinke of the wine, nor gather the grapes: for the wormes shall eate it.
N'a plante jaden rezen, n'a okipe yo byen. Men, nou p'ap jwenn rezen ni pou nou rekòlte, ni pou fè diven pou nou bwè, paske vèmen va fin manje tout.
40 Thou shalt haue Oliue trees in all thy coastes, but shalt not anoynt thy selfe with the oyle: for thine oliues shall fall.
Pye oliv va pouse toupatou nan peyi nou an, men nou p'ap gen yon ti degout lwil oliv, paske tout grenn oliv yo ap koule.
41 Thou shalt beget sonnes, and daughters, but shalt not haue them: for they shall goe into captiuitie.
N'a fè pitit fi ak pitit gason, men yo p'ap pou nou, paske lènmi nou yo ap fè yo prizonye, y'ap depòte yo.
42 All thy trees and fruite of thy land shall the grashopper consume.
Krikèt pral manje tout pyebwa nou yo ak tout ti plant ki nan jaden nou yo.
43 The straunger that is among you, shall clime aboue thee vp on hie, and thou shalt come downe beneath alow.
Moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou va vin pi fò pase nou. Nou menm, chak jou, n'a pèdi fil.
44 He shall lend thee, and thou shalt not lend him: he shalbe the head, and thou shalt be ye tayle.
Se yo menm ki va gen lajan pou yo prete nou. Nou menm nou p'ap gen anyen pou n' prete yo. Se yo ki va devan, nou menm nou pral dèyè nèt.
45 Moreouer, all these curses shall come vpon thee, and shall pursue thee and ouertake thee, till thou be destroyed, because thou obeyedst not the voyce of the Lord thy God, to keepe his commandements, and his ordinances, which he commanded thee:
Tout giyon sa yo va tonbe sou nou. Kote nou pase y'a pase dèyè nou. Y'a rete sou nou jouk y'a fini nèt ak nou. Tou sa, paske nou pa t' koute sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, di nou, nou pa t' fè tou sa li te mande nou fè nan lòd ak regleman li te ban nou yo.
46 And they shalbe vpon thee for signes and wonders, and vpon thy seede for euer,
Madichon sa yo va sèvi ni pou nou ni pou pitit nou yo pou moutre nou kalite mèvèy ak mirak Bondye ka fè.
47 Because thou seruedst not the Lord thy God with ioyfulnesse and with a good heart for the abundance of all things.
Bondye te ban nou tou sa nou te bezwen. Men malgre sa, nou pa t' sèvi l' tout bon ak kè kontan.
48 Therefore thou shalt serue thine enemies which the Lord shall send vpon thee, in hunger and in thirst, and in nakednesse, and in neede of all things? and he shall put a yoke of yron vpon thy necke vntill he haue destroyed thee.
Se poutèt sa, nou pral sèvi lènmi Seyè a pral voye sou nou. Nou pral soufri grangou, swaf dlo, toutouni, dizèt ak tout kalite mizè. Seyè a pral fè lènmi yo kraze nou anba men yo, jouk y'a fini nèt ak nou.
49 The Lord shall bring a nation vpon thee from farre, euen from the ende of the world, flying swift as an Egle: a nation whose tongue thou shalt not vnderstand:
Seyè a pral mennen yon nasyon soti byen lwen nan dènye bout latè, yon nasyon ki pale yon lang nou p'ap konprann, yo pral vare sou nou tankou malfini sou poul.
50 A nation of a fierce countenance, which will not regarde the person of the olde, nor haue compassion of the yong.
Se moun ki gen kè di. Yo p'ap respekte vye granmoun, ni yo p'ap gen pitye pou timoun.
51 The same shall eate the fruit of thy cattell, and the fruite of thy land vntill thou be destroyed, and he shall leaue thee neyther wheate, wine, nor oyle, neither the increase of thy kyne, nor the flockes of thy sheepe, vntill he haue brought thee to nought.
Y'a manje pwofi bèt nou yo, ak rekòt jaden nou yo jouk y'a kite nou mouri grangou. Yo p'ap kite anyen pou nou, ni farin, ni diven, ni lwil, ni pòte bèf nou yo ni pòte mouton nou yo, jouk y'a fini nèt ak nou.
52 And he shall besiege thee in all thy cities, vntill thine hie and strong walles fall downe, wherein thou trustedst in all the lande: and hee shall besiege thee in all thy cities throughout all thy lande, which the Lord thy God hath giuen thee.
Y'a atake nou. Y'a sènen tout lavil nou yo, jouk y'a fin kraze gwo miray byen wo ki te sèvi nou ranpa, miray nou te kwè ki ta ka toujou pwoteje nou yo. Wi, y'a fèmen nou, y'a sènen tout lavil nou yo, toupatou nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te fè nou kado a.
53 And thou shalt eate the fruite of thy bodie: euen the flesh of thy sonnes and thy daughters, which the Lord thy God hath giuen thee, during the siege and straitnesse wherein thine enemie shall inclose thee:
Lè lènmi nou yo va sènen nou nan lavil nou yo, y'a mete nou nan yon sèl kalite mizè ak kè sere, n'a sitèlman grangou, n'a manje pwòp pitit nou yo, pitit gason ak pitit fi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou.
54 So that the man (that is tender and exceeding deintie among you) shalbe grieued at his brother, and at his wife, that lieth in his bosome, and at the remnant of his children, which hee hath yet left,
Menm moun nou konnen ki pi bon nan mitan nou an, moun ki pa janm nan kont ak pesonn lan, enben menm li menm, l'a fèmen kè l', li p'ap konn frè, li p'ap konn madanm li te renmen an, ni ankenn pitit nan sa ki rete l' yo,
55 For feare of giuing vnto any of them of the flesh of his children, whom he shall eate, because he hath nothing left him in that siege, and straitnesse, wherewith thine enemie shall besiege thee in all thy cities.
pou li pa bay pesonn nan vyann pitit li l'ap manje a, paske ak lènmi k'ap sènen nou nan lavil nou yo, ap gen yon sèl mizè ak kè sere nan mitan lavil nou yo, ata li menm, l'a sitèlman grangou, l'a blije manje pwòp pitit li, epi li p'ap bay pesonn ladan l'.
56 The tender and deintie woman among you, which neuer woulde venture to set the sole of her foote vpon the grounde (for her softnesse and tendernesse) shalbe grieued at her husband that lieth in her bosome, and at her sonne, and at her daughter,
Menm fanm nou konnen ki pi bon moun nan mitan nou an, fanm ki pa ta janm ap mache nan lari tèlman li gen bon jan ak bon levasyon an, li va fèmen kè l', li p'ap konn ni mari li renmen anpil la, ni pitit fi, ni pitit gason.
57 And at her afterbirth (that shall come out from betweene her feete) and at her childre, which she shall beare: for when all things lacke, she shall eate them secretly, during the siege and straitnesse, wherewith thine enemie shall besiege thee in thy cities.
Pou li pa separe ak yo, l'a kache kò l' pou yo pa wè l' lè l'ap manje pitit li fenk fè a, ansanm ak tout manman vant lan. Paske, avèk lènmi k'ap sènen nou nan lavil nou yo, ap gen yon sèl mizè ak kè sere, p'ap gen anyen pou manje. Lè sa a, l'a kache kò l' pou l' pa bay yo anyen nan sa l'ap manje a.
58 If thou wilt not keepe and doe all the wordes of the Lawe (that are written in this booke) and feare this glorious and feareful name The Lord Thy God,
Si nou pa swiv tout regleman ki ekri nan liv lalwa sa a, si nou pa gen krentif pou Bondye nou an, Seyè ki gen anpil pouvwa a, Bondye moun fèt pou respekte a,
59 The the Lord wil make thy plagues wonderfull, and the plagues of thy seede, euen great plagues and of long continuance, and sore diseases, and of long durance.
Seyè a va voye gwo malè sa yo sou nou ak sou pitit nou yo, l'a voye gwo epidemi ki pa tande rete, move maladi ki pa konn renmèd.
60 Moreouer, he will bring vpon thee all the diseases of Egypt, whereof thou wast afraide, and they shall cleaue vnto thee.
L'a voye sou nou ankò tout malè ki te tonbe sou moun peyi Lejip yo, malè ki te fè nou tranble yo. Nou p'ap janm ka soti anba yo.
61 And euery sickenesse, and euery plague, which is not written in the booke of this Lawe, will the Lord heape vpon thee, vntill thou be destroyed.
Sa ki pi rèd ankò, Seyè a va voye sou nou tout kalite epidemi ak maladi yo pa pale nan liv lalwa Seyè a jouk la fini nèt avèk nou.
62 And ye shall be left few in nomber, where ye were as the starres of heauen in multitude, because thou wouldest not obey the voyce of the Lord thy God.
Epi nou menm, moun pèp Izrayèl yo, ki te anpil tankou zetwal ki nan syèl la, n'a tounen yon ti ponyen moun, paske nou pa t' koute sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te di nou.
63 And as the Lord hath reioyced ouer you, to doe you good, and to multiply you, so he will reioyce ouer you, to destroy you, and bring you to nought, and ye shalbe rooted out of the land, whither thou goest to possesse it.
Menm jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te pran plezi pou l' te fè nou byen, pou l' te fè nou vin anpil la, se konsa tou l'a pran plezi pou l' fè nou pèdi tout bagay, pou l' fini nèt ak nou. L'a rache nou met deyò nan peyi kote nou pral antre a, peyi nou pral pran pou nou rete a.
64 And the Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the one ende of the worlde vnto the other, and there thou shalt serue other gods, which thou hast not knowen nor thy fathers, euen wood and stone.
Seyè a va gaye nou nan mitan tout nasyon ki toupatou sou latè. Lè n'a rive la, n'a sèvi lòt bondye ni zansèt nou yo, ni nou menm nou pa t' janm tande pale, zidòl fèt an bwa, zidòl fèt ak wòch.
65 Also among these nations thou shalt finde no rest, neither shall the sole of thy foote haue rest: for the Lord shall giue thee there a trembling heart, and looking to returne till thine eyes fall out, and a sorowfull minde.
Antan n'ap viv nan mitan lòt nasyon sa yo, nou p'ap janm gen kè poze, nou p'ap janm ka rete yon sèl kote. Seyè a va fè nou viv ak kè sote, nan lapenn ak dekourajman.
66 And thy life shall hang before thee, and thou shalt feare both night and day, and shalt haue none assurance of thy life.
Lavi nou ap toujou an danje. Lajounen kou lannwit, n'ap nan laperèz, n'ap pè pou lanmò pa pran nou.
67 In the morning thou shalt say, Woulde God it were euening, and at the euening thou shalt say, Would God it were morning, for ye feare of thine heart, which thou shalt feare, and for the sight of thine eyes, which thou shalt see.
Devan bagay n'a wè k'ap pase devan je nou, n'a gen yon sèl laperèz nan kè nou, kè nou va bat bip-bip! Chak maten n'a mande kilè aswè va rive. Chak aswè n'a mande kilè la jou.
68 And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt againe with shippes by the way, whereof I saide vnto thee, Thou shalt see it no more againe: and there yee shall sell your selues vnto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and there shalbe no byer.
Seyè a va fè nou tounen nan peyi Lejip nan bato, atout se li menm ki te pwomèt nou pa t'ap janm tounen la ankò. N' aval vann tèt nou bay lènmi nou yo pou nou sèvi yo esklav, men pesonn p'ap vle achte nou.
