Egzòd 33

1 Seyè a di Moyiz: -Leve non, ou menm ak tout pèp ou te fè soti kite Lejip la. Kite kote nou ye a. Pran chemen pou n' ale nan peyi mwen te sèmante bay Abraram, Izarak ak Jakòb la, lè m' te di yo m'ap ba yo tè sa a pou pitit pitit yo.

And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, and go up behind, you and the people which you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I swore unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto your seed will I give it:

2 M'ap voye yonn nan zanj mwen yo devan nou. M'ap mete moun Kanaran yo, moun Amori yo, moun Et yo, moun Ferezi yo, ak moun Jebis yo deyò sou tè yo a.

And I will send an angel before you; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite:

3 Ale. W'ap rive nan yon peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo. Men, se pa mwen menm menm ki prale ansanm ak nou, paske nou se yon bann moun ki gen tèt di, mwen ta ka touye nou sou wout la.

Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of you; for you are a stubborn people: lest I consume you in the way.

4 Lè pèp la tande move nouvèl sa a, yon sèl lapenn pran yo. Tout moun refize pote bijou sou yo.

And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments.

5 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Di pitit Izrayèl yo se yon bann moun ki gen tèt di yo ye. Si se pou m' ta ale ak yo, menm yon sèl ti kadè, mwen ta fin estèminen yo nèt. Koulye a, se pou yo wete tout bijou yo gen sou yo. Lè sa a m'a wè, sa m' ka fè pou yo.

For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, All of you are a stubborn people: I will come up into the midst of you in a moment, and consume you: therefore now put off your ornaments from you, that I may know what to do unto you.

6 Se konsa, depi sou mòn Orèb, moun Izrayèl yo pa janm pote bijou ankò sou yo.

And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount Horeb.

7 Moyiz pran tant lan, li mete l' yon ti distans an deyò limit kan kote yo te enstale a. Li rele l' Tant Randevou a. Tout moun ki te bezwen pale ak Seyè a te blije soti nan kan an pou ale nan Tant Randevou a.

And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, far off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp.

8 Chak fwa Moyiz te soti pou l al nan tant lan, tout pèp la te fèt pou kanpe, chak moun devan papòt kay yo, ap gade Moyiz jouk li antre nan tant lan.

And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tabernacle.

9 Depi Moyiz antre nan tant lan, poto nwaj la desann, li kanpe sou papòt tant lan. Epi Seyè a pran pale ak Moyiz.

And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses.

10 Lè tout moun wè poto nwaj la kanpe nan papòt tant lan, yo leve, yo bese tèt yo jouk atè devan papòt kay pa yo.

And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door.

11 Seyè a te konn pale fasafas ak Moyiz tankou yon moun k'ap pale ak zanmi l'. Apre sa, Moyiz te tounen nan kan kote pèp la te enstale a. Men, te gen yon jenn gason yo te rele Jozye, pitit gason Noum lan, ki t'ap sèvi ak Moyiz. Li menm, li pa t' janm kite tant lan.

And the LORD spoke unto Moses face to face, as a man speaks unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.

12 Moyiz di Seyè a: -Ala ou di m' fè pèp la moute ale nan peyi a, men ou pa di m' kilès w'ap voye avè m' pou ede m'. Men, koulye a ou di m' ou konnen m' byen, ou konnen ki moun mwen ye. Ou kontan mwen anpil.

And Moses said unto the LORD, See, you say unto me, Bring up this people: and you have not let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, I know you by name, and you have also found grace in my sight.

13 Bon, si ou kontan m' vre, tanpri, fè m' konnen lide ou gen nan tèt ou pou m' ka konnen ki moun ou ye, pou m' ka toujou fè ou plezi. Chonje tou, pèp sa a se pa ou li ye wi!

Now therefore, I pray you, if I have found grace in your sight, show me now your way, that I may know you, that I may find grace in your sight: and consider that this nation is your people.

14 Seyè a reponn: -Se mwen menm k'ap mache avè ou. M'ap fè ou jwenn repo.

And he said, My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest.

15 Moyiz di l': -Si se pa ou menm menm k'ap mache avè nou, ou pa bezwen kite nou soti isit la.

And he said unto him, If your presence go not with me, carry us not up behind.

16 Lè ou gade byen, ki jan pou mwen fè konnen ou konsidere m' anpil, mwen menm ansanm ak pèp ou a? Eske se pa lè ou mache ak nou? Si ou mache ak nou, tout moun va rekonèt mwen menm ansanm ak pèp la, nou pa menm ak lòt pèp ki sou latè yo.

For wherein shall it be known here that I and your people have found grace in your sight? is it not in that you go with us? so shall we be separated, I and your people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth.

17 Seyè a di Moyiz: -m'a fè sa ou mande m' lan, paske ou fè kè m' kontan anpil. Mwen konnen ki moun ou ye.

And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that you have spoken: for you have found grace in my sight, and I know you by name.

18 Moyiz di l': -Tanpri, fè m' wè pouvwa ou!

And he said, I plead to you, show me your glory.

19 Lè sa a Seyè a reponn li: -M'ap fè ou wè jan m' gen bon kè, m'ap nonmen non m' devan ou. M'ap fè moun mwen vle gras, m'ap gen pitye pou moun mwen vle gen pitye.

And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before you; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.

20 Seyè a pale ankò, li di-Ou p'ap kapab wè figi m', paske ankenn moun sou latè pa kapab wè figi m' pou l' kontinye ap viv apre sa.

And he said, You can not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

21 Li di ankò: -Men yon ti plas bò kote m'. W'a kanpe sou ròch sa a.

And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand upon a rock:

22 Lè pouvwa mwen vin ap pase, m'ap mete ou nan twou ròch la, m'a kouvri ou avèk men mwen jouk mwen fin pase.

And it shall come to pass, while my glory passes by, that I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and will cover you with my hand while I pass by:

23 Apre sa, m'a wete men m' sou ou. Se do m' ase w'a wè ki prale, men ou p'ap wè figi m'.

And I will take away mine hand, and you shall see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
