Joshua 1
1 Nowe after the death of Moses the seruant of the Lord, the Lord spake vnto Ioshua the sonne of Nun, Moses minister, saying,
Apre Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, mouri, Seyè a pale ak Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, ki te aladwat Moyiz nan tou sa li t'ap fè. Li di l' konsa:
2 Moses my seruant is dead: nowe therefore arise, go ouer this Iorden, thou, and all this people, vnto the lande which I giue them, that is, to ye children of Israel.
-Koulye a, Moyiz, sèvitè m' lan, mouri. Pare kò ou, ou menm ansanm ak tout pèp Izrayèl la. Nou pral janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an pou nou ka antre nan peyi m'ap ban nou an.
3 Euery place that the sole of your foote shall treade vpon, haue I giuen you, as I said vnto Moses.
Jan mwen te di Moyiz la, mwen pral ban nou tout peyi kote nou pral mete pye nou an.
4 From the wildernesse and this Lebanon euen vnto the great riuer, the riuer Perath: all the land of the Hittites, euen vnto the great Sea towarde the going downe of the sunne, shalbe your coast.
Peyi a pral konmanse depi nan dezè a sou bò nan sid, jouk mòn Liban nou wè laba a, nan nò. L'ap pran tout peyi moun Et yo, depi larivyè Lefrat sou bò solèy leve, jouk gwo lanmè a sou bò solèy kouche.
5 There shall not a man be able to withstande thee all the dayes of thy life: as I was with Moses, so will I be with thee: I will not leaue thee, nor forsake thee.
Pandan tout rès vi ou, pesonn p'ap ka kenbe tèt ak ou. M'ap toujou kanpe la avèk ou, menm jan mwen te toujou la avèk Moyiz. Mwen p'ap vire do ba ou, mwen p'ap janm lage ou.
6 Be strong and of a good courage: for vnto this people shalt thou deuide the lande for an inheritance, which I sware vnto their fathers to giue them.
Mete gason sou ou! Pa janm dekouraje, paske se ou menm ki pral fè pèp la antre pran peyi mwen te fè sèman m'ap bay zansèt yo a.
7 Onely be thou strong, and of a most valiant courage, that thou mayest obserue and doe according to all the Lawe which Moses my seruant hath commanded thee: thou shalt not turne away from it to the right hande, nor to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoeuer thou goest.
Wi. Sèl bagay mwen mande ou, se mete gason sou ou, pa janm dekouraje. Veye kò ou pou ou mache dapre tout lòd Moyiz, sèvitè m' lan, te ba ou yo. Pa janm neglije anyen nan sa li te di ou, pou zafè ou ka mache byen kote ou pase.
8 Let not this booke of the Law depart out of thy mouth, but meditate therin day and night, that thou mayest obserue and doe according to all that is written therein: for then shalt thou make thy way prosperous, and then shalt thou haue good successe.
Se pou pawòl ki nan liv lalwa a toujou nan bouch ou. Se pou w'ap kalkile yo nan tèt ou lajounen kou lannwit, pou ou ka viv dapre sa ki ekri nan liv la. Se konsa w'a mennen bak ou byen. Tout zafè ou va mache byen.
9 Haue not I commanded thee, saying, Be strong and of a good courage, feare not, nor be discouraged? for I the Lord thy God will be with thee, whithersoeuer thou goest.
Chonje lòd mwen te ba ou! Mete gason sou ou! Pa janm dekouraje! Ou pa bezwen tranble, ou pa bezwen pè, paske Seyè a, Bondye ou la, ap toujou kanpe la avèk ou kote ou pase.
10 Then Ioshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
Lè sa a, Jozye rele tout chèf pèp la. Li ba yo lòd sa a:
11 Passe through the hoste, and commande the people, saying, Prepare you vitailes: for after three dayes ye shall passe ouer this Iorden, to goe in to possesse the lande, which the Lord your God giueth you to possesse it.
-Mache nan tout kan an. Bay pèp la lòd pou yo pare tout zafè yo, paske nan twa jou nou pral janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an pou nou antre nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou pou peyi pa nou.
12 And vnto the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to halfe the tribe of Manasseh spake Ioshua, saying,
Apre sa, Jozye pale ak moun branch fanmi Woubenn yo ak moun branch fanmi Gad yo ansanm ak mwatye moun nan branch fanmi Manase a. Li di yo:
13 Remember the worde, which Moses the seruant of the Lord commanded you, saying, The Lord your God hath giuen you rest, and hath giuen you this land.
-Chonje lòd Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, te ban nou lè li te di nou: Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou tè bò isit la pou nou tabli, pou nou viv ak kè poze.
14 Your wiues, your children, and your cattell shall remaine in the land which Moses gaue you on this side Iorden: but ye shall goe ouer before your brethren armed, all that be men of warre, and shall helpe them,
Madanm nou, pitit nou ak tout bèt nou yo pral rete nan peyi Moyiz ban nou sou bò isit larivyè Jouden an, bò solèy leve a. Men, nou menm gason yo, vanyan sòlda, se pou nou pran zam nou nan men nou pou nou mache devan tout rès pèp la, pou nou ka ede yo, si gen nesesite.
15 Vntill the Lord haue giuen your brethren rest, as well as to you, and vntill they also shall possesse the land, which the Lord your God giueth them: then shall ye returne vnto the lande of your possession and shall possesse it, which land Moses the Lordes seruant gaue you on this side Iorden toward the sunne rising.
Lè Seyè a va fin fè yo pran peyi a pou yo, lè l'a fin ba yo yon kote pou yo viv ak kè poze, menm jan li te fè l' pou nou an, se lè sa a atò n'a tounen nan peyi ki pou nou an. Wi, n'a vin rete nan peyi pa nou an, peyi Moyiz, sèvitè Bondye a, te ban nou lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, sou bò solèy leve.
16 Then they answered Ioshua, saying, Al that thou hast commanded vs, we will doe, and whithersoeuer thou sendest vs, we will goe.
Yo tout yo reponn Jozye, yo di l': -Tou sa ou ban nou lòd fè, n'ap fè l'! Kote ou voye nou, nou prale!
17 As we obeyed Moses in all things, so will we obey thee: onely the Lord thy God be with thee, as he was with Moses.
Menm jan nou te toujou obeyi Moyiz, se konsa n'ap obeyi ou tou. Sèl bagay, n'ap lapriyè pou Bondye toujou kanpe avè ou menm jan li te kanpe ak Moyiz la.
18 Whosoeuer shall rebell against thy commandement, and will not obey thy wordes in all that thou commaundest him, let him bee put to death: onely be strong and of good courage.
Se pou yo touye tout moun ki pa dakò ak lòd ou, osinon ki pa vle obeyi lòd ou bay, osinon ki derefize fè sa ou mande yo fè. Sèlman, met gason sou ou! Pa janm dekouraje!
