Exodus 17
1 And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the wilderness of Sin, according to their encampments, by the word of the Lord; and they encamped in Raphidin: and there was no water for the people to drink.
Tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo pati, yo kite dezè Sin lan, dapre lòd Seyè a te ba yo. Yo fè wout la moso pa moso, jouk yo rive Refidim kote yo moute tant yo. Men, pa t' gen dlo la pou pèp la te bwè.
2 And the people reviled Moses, saying, Give us water, that we may drink; and Moses said to them, Why do you revile me, and why tempt you the Lord?
Yo leve fè kont ak Moyiz. Yo di l': -Ban nou dlo pou nou bwè! Moyiz reponn yo: -Poukisa n'ap chache m' kont konsa? Pouki n'ap sonde Seyè a konsa?
3 And the people thirsted there for water, and there the people murmured against Moses, saying, Why is this? have you brought us up out of Egypt to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?
Men, pèp la te swaf dlo anpil, yo t'ap bougonnen sou do Moyiz. Yo di l': -Poukisa ou fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip la? Gen lè se pou te fè nou vin mouri swaf dlo isit la, avèk pitit nou yo ansanm ak tout bèt nou yo?
4 And Moses cried to the Lord, saying, What shall I do to this people? yet a little while and they will stone me.
Moyiz menm lapriyè nan pye Bondye. Li di l' konsa: -Kisa pou m' fè ak moun sa yo? Yo san lè touye m' ak kout ròch!
5 And the Lord said to Moses, Go before this people, and take to yourself of the elders of the people; and the rod with which you struck the river, take in your hand, and you shall go.
Seyè a di Moyiz: -Pran kèk chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl la avèk ou, pase devan pèp la. Kenbe baton ou te sèvi pou frape gwo la rivyè Nil lan nan men ou. Epi mache.
6 Behold, I stand there before you [come], on the rock in Choreb, and you shall strike the rock, and water shall come out from it, and the people shall drink. And Moses did so before the sons of Israel.
Mwen menm, m'ap kanpe laba a, dwat devan ou, sou tèt gwo ròch Orèb la. W'a frape ròch la, dlo va soti ladan l'. Pèp la va bwè. Se sa menm Moyiz te fè devan chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl la.
7 And he called the name of that place, Temptation, and Reviling, because of the reviling of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord among us or not?
Yo rele kote sa a Masa ak Meriba, paske pèp Izrayèl la t'ap chache kont, yo t'ap sonde Seyè a lè yo te mande: Eske Seyè a nan mitan nou, wi ou non?
8 And Amalec came and fought with Israel in Raphidin.
Antan pèp Izrayèl la Refidim, moun Amalèk yo vin pou goumen ak yo.
9 And Moses said to Joshua, Choose out for yourself mighty men, and go forth and set the army in array against Amalec to-morrow; and, behold, I [shall] stand on the top of the hill, and the rod of God [will be] in my hand.
Moyiz di Jozye konsa: -Chwazi kèk gason pou nou. Denmen w'a soti al goumen ak moun Amalèk yo. Mwen menm, m'a moute sou tèt ti mòn lan avèk baton Bondye te ban mwen an nan men mwen.
10 And Joshua did as Moses said to him, and he went out and set the army in array against Amalec, and Moses and Aaron and Or went up to the top of the hill.
Jozye fè tou sa Moyiz te di l' fè. Li soti al goumen ak moun Amalèk yo. Moyiz menm moute sou tèt ti mòn lan ansanm ak Arawon ak Our.
11 And it came to pass, when Moses lifted up his hands, Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hands, Amalec prevailed.
Tout tan Moyiz te kenbe men l' yo leve anlè, se moun Izrayèl yo ki te pi fò. Men, kou Moyiz bese men l', se moun Amalèk yo ki te pi fò.
12 But the hands of Moses were heavy, and they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat upon it; and Aaron and Or supported his hands one on this side and the other on that, and the hands of Moses were supported till the going down of the sun.
Rive yon lè Moyiz te bouke, de bra l' t'ap fè l' mal. Arawon ak Our pran yon ròch, yo mete l' deyè Moyiz, yo fè Moyiz chita sou li. Yo chak pran yon bra Moyiz, yo kenbe yo anlè. Yo kenbe yo konsa jouk solèy kouche.
13 And Joshua routed Amalec and all his people with the slaughter of the sword.
Jozye menm te bat Amalèk ak moun li yo byen bat, li touye yo anba kout nepe.
14 And the Lord said to Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and speak [this] in the ears of Joshua; for I will utterly blot out the memorial of Amalec from under heaven.
Apre sa, Seyè a di Moyiz: -Ekri sa nan liv rejis la pou moun yo pa janm bliye batay sa a. W'a di Jozye konsa m'ap efase non Amalèk sou latè pou yo pa janm chonje l' ankò.
15 And Moses built an altar to the Lord, and called the name of it, The Lord my Refuge.
Moyiz bati yon lòtèl, li rele l': Seyè a se drapo m'.
16 For with a secret hand the Lord wages war upon Amalec to all generations.
Apre sa li di: -Men mwen leve men m' devan fotèy Seyè a, Seyè a p'ap janm sispann goumen ak moun Amalèk yo.
