< Exodus 33 >

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, Depart, go up from here, thou and the people that thou have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, To thy seed will I give it.
Alò SENYÈ a te pale ak Moïse: “Pati, ale monte soti isit la, ou menm avèk pèp ke ou te mennen monte sòti nan peyi Égypte la, vè yon peyi ke Mwen te sèmante a Abraham, Issac, e a Jacob lè M te di yo: ‘A desandan nou yo Mwen va bay li.’
2 And I will send an agent before thee, and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite-
Mwen va voye yon zanj devan ou, e Mwen va mete Kananeyen yo deyò, Amoreyen yo, Evetyen yo, Ferezyen yo, Etyen yo, ak Jebisyen yo.
3 to a land flowing with milk and honey. For I will not go up in the midst of thee, for thou are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume thee on the way.
Monte vè yon peyi ki koule lèt ak siwo myèl; men Mwen p ap monte nan mitan nou, pwiske nou se yon pèp tèt di, e Mwen ta kapab petèt detwi nou nan chemen an.”
4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned, and no man put his ornaments on him.
Lè pèp la te tande pawòl tris sa yo, yo te antre nan gwo doulè, e pèsòn pa t abiye avèk òneman yo.
5 And Jehovah said to Moses, Say to the sons of Israel, Ye are a stiff-necked people. If I go up into the midst of thee for one moment, I shall consume thee. Therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do to thee.
Paske SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Di a fis Israël yo: ‘Nou se yon pèp tèt di; si M ta monte nan mitan nou pandan yon moman, Mwen ta detwi nou. Koulye a, pou sa, retire òneman yo sou nou menm, pou M kapab konnen kisa ke M ta dwe fè avèk nou.’”
6 And the sons of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments from mount Horeb onward.
Konsa, soti Mòn Horeb pou rive pi lwen, fis Israël yo te retire tout òneman yo nèt sou yo menm.
7 Now Moses used to take the tent and to pitch it outside the camp, afar off from the camp, and he called it, The tent of meeting. And it came to pass, that everyone who sought Jehovah went out to the tent of meeting, which was outside the camp.
Alò Moïse te abitye pran tant lan, li te monte li deyò kan an, yon bon distans a kan an, e li te rele li “Tant Reyinyon an”. Epi tout moun ki t ap chache SENYÈ a te konn ale nan tant reyinyon ki te deyò kan an.
8 And it came to pass, when Moses went out to the tent, that all the people rose up, and stood, every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tent.
Epi li te rive ke nenpòt lè ke Moïse te sòti deyò tant lan, ke tout pèp la ta leve kanpe, chak moun nan antre a tant pa yo a, e gade vè Moïse jiskaske li te vin retounen nan tant lan.
9 And it came to pass, when Moses entered into the tent, the pillar of cloud descended, and stood at the door of the tent, and Jehovah spoke with Moses.
Nenpòt lè Moïse te antre nan tant lan, pilye a nwaj la te konn desann e kanpe nan antre tant lan; epi SENYÈ a ta pale avèk Moïse.
10 And all the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at the door of the tent. And all the people rose up and worshiped, every man at his tent door.
Lè tout pèp la te wè pilye a nwaj la ki te kanpe nan antre tant lan, tout pèp la te leve adore, chak moun depi nan antre a tant pa li a.
11 And Jehovah spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend, and he turned again into the camp. But his minister Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart out of the tent.
Konsa SENYÈ a te konn pale avèk Moïse fasafas, menm jan ke yon moun pale avèk zanmi li. Lè Moïse te retounen nan kan an, sèvitè li a, Josué, fis a Nun nan, yon jennonm, ta refize sòti nan mitan tant lan.
12 And Moses said to Jehovah, See, thou say to me, Bring up this people, and thou have not let me know whom thou will send with me. Yet thou have said, I know thee by name, and thou have also found favor in my sight.
Alò, Moïse te di a SENYÈ a: “Ou wè, Ou di mwen, ‘Monte avèk pèp sa a, men Ou menm ou pa kite m konnen kilès Ou va voye avèk mwen.’ Anplis, Ou te di m: ‘Mwen te konnen ou pa non Ou, e ou osi twouve favè nan zye M.’
13 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thy sight, show me now thy ways, that I may know thee, to the end that I may find favor in thy sight. And consider that this nation is thy people.
Alò, pou sa, mwen priye Ou, si mwen twouve favè nan zye Ou, kite mwen konnen chemen pa Ou yo, pou m kapab konnen Ou, pou m kab jwenn favè nan zye Ou. Konsidere tou, ke nasyon sila a se pèp pa Ou.”
14 And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.
Konsa, Li te di: “Prezans Mwen va ale avèk ou, e Mwen va bay ou repo.”
15 And Moses said to him, If thy presence go not, do not carry us up from here.
Epi Moïse te di Li: “Si prezans Ou p ap prale avèk nou, pa mennen nou monte isit la.
16 For how shall it now be known that I have found favor in thy sight, I and thy people? Is it not in that thou go with us, so that we are separated, I and thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth?
Paske kijan pèp sa ka konnen ke mwen te twouve favè nan zye Ou, mwen avèk pèp Ou a? Èske se pa lè ou ale avèk nou, ke nou, mwen menm avèk pèp Ou a, kapab distenge pami tout lòt pèp ki rete sou fas tè a?”
17 And Jehovah said to Moses, I will do this thing also that thou have spoken, for thou have found favor in my sight, and I know thee by name.
SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Mwen va osi fè bagay sa ke ou te pale a; paske ou twouve favè nan zye M, e Mwen konnen ou pa non Ou.”
18 And he said, Show me, I pray thee, thy glory.
Konsa, Moïse te di: “Mwen priye Ou, montre m glwa Ou!”
19 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and will proclaim the name of Jehovah before thee. I will be merciful to whom I may be merciful, and I will be compassionate to whomever I may be compassionate.
Epi Li te reponn li: “Mwen menm va fè tout bonte Mwen pase devan ou, e Mwen va pwoklame non SENYÈ a devan ou. Konsa, Mwen va fè gras a sa ke M vle fè gras yo, e Mwen va montre mizerikòd a sa ke M vle montre mizerikòd yo.”
20 And he said, Thou cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live.
Men Li te di: “Ou p ap kapab wè figi Mwen, paske okenn moun pa ka wè M pou l viv!”
21 And Jehovah said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shall stand upon the rock.
SENYÈ a te di: “Gade byen, gen yon plas bò kote Mwen. Ou va kanpe la sou wòch la.
22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passes by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand until I have passed by.
Epi li va rive ke pandan glwa Mwen ap pase, Mwen va mete ou nan twou wòch la. E Mwen va kouvri ou avèk men M pou jiskaske M fin pase.
23 And I will take away my hand, and thou shall see my back, but my face shall not be seen.
Alò, Mwen va retire men M, e ou va wè do Mwen, men figi M p ap vizib.”
