Leviticus 26
1 [Yahweh also said this to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain]: “Do not make idols or set up statues of false gods or sacred stones [to worship other gods]. And do not put on your property a stone that has been shaped [to resemble a false god] and bow down to [worship] it. [You must worship only] me, Yahweh, your God.
Seyè a di: -Nou pa gen dwa fè zidòl, nou pa gen dwa fè estati, ni mete wòch kanpe. Nou pa gen dwa pran wòch pou fè desen sou li, lèfini pou n' mete l' kanpe yon kote nan peyi a pou nou adore yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
2 “Honor the Sabbath days and revere my Sacred Tent, because I, Yahweh, [live there].
Se pou nou fete tout fèt mwen yo. Se pou nou respekte kay ki apa pou mwen an. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
3 “If you carefully obey all my commands [DOU],
Si nou mache dapre lòd mwen yo, si nou kenbe tout kòmandman m' yo, si nou swiv yo,
4 I will send rain for you at the proper/right times, in order that crops will grow on your land and there will be plenty of fruit on your trees.
lè sezon an rive, m'a ban nou lapli. Konsa, tè nou va bay rekòt, pyebwa nan jaden nou va donnen.
5 You will continue [harvesting and] threshing [grain] until it is time to harvest grapes, and you will continue to harvest grapes until it is time to start planting [things in the following year]. And you will have all the food that you want to eat, and you will live safely in your land.
Lè sa a, nou p'ap anko fin bat ble, n'ap gen tan nan keyi rezen. Nou p'ap ankò fin keyi rezen, n'ap gen tan nan plante grenn. N'a gen kont manje pou nou manje, epi n'a rete nan peyi nou an san nou pa bezwen pè anyen.
6 “[If you obey all my laws], there will be peace in your country, and when you lie down [to sleep], nothing will cause you to be afraid. I will get rid of the dangerous animals in your country, and there will no wars [MTY] in your country.
M'a mete kè poze nan peyi a, n'a kouche dòmi san kè sote. M'ap fè tout bèt mawon disparèt nan peyi a, moun p'ap vin fè nou lagè ankò.
7 You will pursue your enemies and kill them with your swords:
N'a kouri dèyè lènmi nou yo, n'a bat yo, n'a kraze yo ak nepe nou.
8 Five of you will pursue 100 of them, and 100 of you will pursue 1,000 of them and kill them with your swords.
Senk moun nan mitan nou va kont pou bat san lènmi, san moun nan mitan nou va kont pou bat mil lènmi. N'a kraze lènmi nou yo anba kout nepe nou yo.
9 “[If you obey all my laws], I will bless you and cause you to have many children [DOU]. And I will do what I said that I would do in the agreement that I made with you.
M'a beni nou, m'a ban nou pitit, m'a ban nou anpil pitit. Mwen menm, m'a kenbe kontra mwen te siyen ak nou an.
10 When you are still eating food from the harvest from the previous year, it will be necessary for you to throw away some of it to make space for the new harvest.
N'a sitèlman fè bèl rekòt, apre nou fin manje pandan ennan, n'a setoblije mete rès grenn dènye rekòt la deyò pou nou fè plas pou rekòt k'ap vin apre a.
11 I will live among you in my Sacred Tent, and I will never reject you.
M'ap rete nan mitan nou nan kay mwen an, m'ap toujou kontan ak nou.
12 I will walk among you and continue to be your God, and you will continue to be my people.
M'a toujou la nan mitan nou, se mwen menm k'ap Bondye nou, se pèp mwen n'a ye.
13 I am Yahweh your God, the one who brought you out of Egypt in order that you would no longer be slaves of the people of Egypt. [When you were there, you were treated as though you were animals that worked for the people of Egypt, but] [MET] I broke the bars of the (yokes/frames that were put around your necks) and enabled you to walk with your heads up.”
Se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip pou nou pa t' rete esklav moun sa yo ankò. Mwen kase gwo kòd lwijanboje ki t'ap jouke nou an, mwen fè nou mache tèt anlè.
14 “But if you will not heed me and obey all these commands,
Men tou, si nou pa koute m', si nou pa vle fè tou sa m' mande nou fè la a, m'ap peni nou.
15 and if you reject [DOU] my decrees and laws, and do not do [DOU] what I commanded you to do in the agreement that I made with you,
Si nou meprize lòd mwen yo, si nou voye kòmandman mwen yo jete, si nou pa fè tou sa mwen mande nou fè, si nou pa kenbe kontra m' pase ak nou an,
16 these are the things that I will do to you: I will suddenly cause there to be disasters that will ruin you. You will have diseases that cannot be cured, and fevers that will cause you to become blind and will slowly kill you. It will be useless for you to plant seeds, because your enemies will eat the crops that grow.
men ki jan m'ap peni nou: M'ap voye gwo malè sou nou. Maladi ap mennen nou. Lafyèb ap fè nou deperi. Nou p'ap ka wè nan je nou, n'ap pèdi souf nou. Nou va simen grenn nan jaden nou. Men, sa p'ap sèvi nou anyen, paske se lènmi nou yo ki va jwi rekòt nou yo.
17 I will reject/abandon you [IDM], with the result that you will be defeated by your enemies. Then those who hate you will rule you, and [you will be so terrified that] you will run away even when no one is pursuing you.
M'a vire do ban nou, epi lènmi nou va bat nou. Moun ki pa vle wè nou yo va donminen sou nou. N'a rete konsa, n'a pran kouri san pa gen pesonn k'ap kouri dèyè nou.
18 “If you still will not heed me after all those things happen to you, I will continue to punish you again and again for the sins that you have committed.
Si, atousa toujou, nou pa koute m', m'ap peni nou sèt fwa pi rèd pase anvan poutèt peche nou yo.
19 I will cause you to no longer be stubborn and proud; I will cause [no rain to fall; it will be as though] [MET] the sky is made of iron; and the ground will be [as hard as] brass [MET].
Pouvwa nou genyen an epi k'ap fè nou gonfle konsa a, m'ap kraze l' nèt. Pa yon ti degout lapli p'ap tonbe sot nan syel la, tè a ap vin di kou wòch.
20 You will uselessly work very hard [to plant seeds], because crops will not grow in the hard soil in your fields, and fruit will not grow on your trees.
N'a kraze kouraj nou travay di, men sa p'ap sèvi nou anyen: tè jaden nou yo p'ap bay anyen ankò, pyebwa yo p'ap donnen menm.
21 “If you continue to oppose me and refuse to heed me, I will cause you to experience disasters again and again, like you deserve to experience because of your sins.
Si, apre sa, nou vle kenbe tèt ak mwen toujou, si nou derefize koute m', mwen menm tou m'ap peni nou sèt fwa pi rèd toujou pase anvan poutèt peche nou yo.
22 I will send wild animals to attack you, and they will kill your little children and destroy your cattle. There will be very few of you who will remain alive, with the result that there will be very few [HYP] people walking on the roads in your country.
M'a lage bèt nan bwa dèyè nou, y'a touye pitit nou yo, y'a fini ak tout zannimo nou yo. Anpil nan nou va mouri tou. p'ap gen pesonn ap mache sou chemen nan peyi a.
23 “When you experience those things that I do to punish you, if you still do not pay attention to me, and if you continue to oppose me,
Si apre tout malè sa yo nou pa korije toujou, n'ap kenbe tèt avè m' toujou,
24 I myself will oppose you, and I will punish you for your sins again and again.
mwen menm tou m'a kenbe tèt avèk nou. M'ap frape nou sèt fwa pi rèd ankò pase anvan poutèt peche nou yo.
25 I will send [foreign] [MTY] to punish you for not doing the things that I commanded you to do in the agreement that I made with you. If you [try to escape from your enemies by] shutting yourselves in your cities [that have walls around them], I will cause you to experience plagues, and I will allow your enemies to capture [IDM] you.
M'ap fè lènmi nou yo vin fè nou lagè poutèt kontra m' nou pa kenbe a. Lè sa a, n'a anpile kò nou nan lavil yo pou chache pwoteksyon, m'a voye tout kalite move maladi sou nou, jouk n'a blije rann tèt nou bay lènmi nou yo.
26 When I cut off your food supply, there will be very little flour with which to make bread. As a result, ten women will be able to bake all their bread in [only] one oven. [When the bread is baked], each woman will divide it [among the members of her family, but there will be very little for each one], and when they have eaten all of it, they will still be hungry.
M'ap koupe viv nou. Yon sèl fou ap kont pou dis fanm pare pen pou tout fanmi yo. Y'a kontwole sa y'ap bay chak moun. Lè n'a fin manje, se atò n'a grangou.
27 “After all those things happen, if you still do not heed me, if you still oppose me,
Epi, si apre tou sa toujou, nou pa koute m', n'ap kenbe tèt avè m' toujou,
28 I will be very angry with you, and I will oppose you, and I myself will punish you for your sins again and again.
lè sa a m'a kenbe tèt ak nou tou, m'a pran chenn sou nou. Se mwen menm toujou k'ap peni nou sèt fwa pi rèd pase anvan poutèt peche nou yo.
29 [You will be extremely hungry, with the result that] you will [kill] your sons and daughters and eat their flesh.
N'a sitèlman grangou n'a touye pwòp pitit gason ak pwòp pitit fi nou yo, n'a manje vyann yo.
30 I will cause the shrines [where you worship idols] on hilltops to be destroyed. I will smash the altars where you burn incense [to worship your gods], and I will cause your corpses to be piled on the lifeless statues of your gods. And I will detest you.
M'a detwi tout kay nou bati sou tèt mòn pou fè sèvis, m'a kraze lotèl lansan nou yo mete atè, m'a anpile kadav nou yo atè sou moso estati vye zidòl nou yo. N'a ban m' degoutans.
31 I will cause your cities to become heaps of ruins, and I will cause the buildings that are dedicated to the worship of your gods to be smashed. And I will not be pleased at all with the aroma of your offerings [that are burned on the altar].
M'a fè lavil nou yo tounen mazi. M'ap detwi tout kote nou fè sèvis yo. M'ap derefize pran bon sant ofrann nou yo.
32 I will completely ruin your country, with the result that even your enemies who capture it will be shocked/appalled [when they see it].
Se mwen menm ankò ki pral devaste peyi nou an. Ata lènmi nou yo ki pral pran peyi a pou yo rete pral sezi wè sa m'ap fè.
33 I will enable [your enemies to kill you with] their swords, and I will cause the rest of you to be scattered among other nations. Your country will be ruined and your cities will become ruins.
M'ap mennen lènmi nou yo vin fè nou lagè. M'ap leve moun dèyè nou pou vin fè nou lagè. M'ap gaye nou nan mitan lòt peyi etranje yo. Peyi a va tounen yon dezè. Lavil nou p'ap gen pesonn rete ladan yo.
34 After that happens, as long as you are living in your enemies’ countries, your land will be allowed to rest, like you should have allowed it to rest every seven years.
Lè sa a, tè a va pran repo. Wi, lè lènmi nou yo va depòte nou byen lwen nan peyi pa yo, tè a va rete san travay, l'a pran repo.
35 All the time that your land is desolate, it will be able to rest, like you did not enable it to rest during all the years that you lived there.
Pandan tout tan tè a va rete san travay la, l'a jwi tout lanne repo nou pa t' ba li yo lè nou te rete sou li a.
36 “As for you people who will remain alive in the countries to which your enemies [will have taken you], I will cause you to become so afraid that when you hear the sound of leaves being blown by the wind, you will run away. You will run like [SIM] you are running from [a man carrying] a sword, and you will fall down, even though no one is pursuing you.
Kanta pou rès moun ki pa mouri yo, lè y'a rive nan peyi kote yo depòte yo a, m'ap fè yo viv tout tan ak yon kè sote san rete. Konsa, bri yon fèy bwa chèch van ap pote ap kont pou fè yo kouri. Y'ap kouri tankou moun ki gen lagè dèyè yo, y'ap tonbe san pa gen moun k'ap kouri dèyè yo.
37 You will stumble over each other. So you will not be able to stand and fight your enemies.
Y'ap tonbe yonn sou lòt tankou nan lagè san pa gen pesonn k'ap kouri dèyè yo. Yo p'ap fouti kanpe pou yo goumen ak lènmi yo.
38 Many of you will die in the countries that belong to your enemies [DOU].
N'a mouri nan peyi kote yo te depòte nou yo. Y'a antere nou nan peyi moun ki pa vle wè nou yo.
39 And those of you who remain alive will slowly die and rot in the countries of your enemies because of your sins and because of the sins of your ancestors.
Moun ki rete nan sa yo te depòte yo va depafini nan peyi lènmi nou yo, paske y'a peye pou peche zansèt yo ak pou pwòp peche pa yo.
40 “But your descendants must confess their sins and the sins that their ancestors committed. Their ancestors acted unfaithfully toward me and were hostile to me, with the result that I forced them to go to the countries that belonged to their enemies. But when your descendants humble themselves [SYN] and stop being very stubborn [IDM] and accept being punished for their sins,
Men, lè sa a pitit pitit nou yo va rekonèt peche yo ak peche zansèt yo, peche yo te fè paske yo te refize fè sa m' te di yo fè, peche yo te fè paske yo te kenbe tèt avè m'.
Se poutèt sa mwen menm tou, mwen te kenbe tèt ak yo, mwen te mennen yo prizonye nan peyi lènmi yo. Lè sa a, moun ki te gen lògèy plen kè yo va soumèt devan m', y'a peye pou sa yo te fè a.
42 I will remember the agreement that I made with [your ancestors] Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and [what I promised them about] this land.
Mwen menm m'a chonje kontra mwen te pase avèk Jakòb, avèk Izarak epi avèk Abraram. Wi, m'a chonje pwomès mwen te fè yo ak peyi mwen te di m'ap ba yo a.
43 But [before that happens], you will be forced to leave your land, with the result that the land will be able to rest while it is desolate and while the people are being punished for rejecting my laws and hating my decrees [DOU].
Men, yo gen pou yo pati byen lwen, pou yo kite peyi a san moun pou tè a ka pran repo li. Wi, y'a peye pou sa yo te fè a, paske yo pa t' swiv prensip mwen te ba yo, paske yo te voye kòmandman m' yo jete.
44 But when that happens, I will still not reject them or hate them and destroy them completely. I will not cancel the agreement that I made with them; for I am still Yahweh their God.
Men, menm lè sa a, antan yo la toujou nan peyi lènmi yo, mwen p'ap meprize yo, mwen p'ap lage yo jouk pou m' ta fini ak yo nèt. Mwen p'ap kase kontra m' pase ak yo a. Paske se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye yo a.
45 I will (remember/never forget) the agreement that I made with your ancestors when I brought them out of Egypt, in order that the people of all nations will know that I, Yahweh, [will continue to] be your God.”
Men, m'a fè pa yo, m'a chonje kontra mwen te pase avèk zansèt yo lè mwen te fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip devan je moun lòt nasyon yo pou m' te ka Bondye yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
46 Those are the decrees, the laws, and the regulations [DOU] that Yahweh established on Sinai Mountain between himself and the Israeli people by [giving them to] Moses/me [to tell to them].
Men tout prensip, tout lòd ak tout kòmandman Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd mete nan kontra li te siyen ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo sou mòn Sinayi a.
