< Genesis 20 >

1 And Abraham journeyed from there toward the land of the South, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur. And he sojourned in Gerar.
Alò Abraham te vwayaje soti la vè peyi Negev la. Li te vin rete antre Kàdes ak Schur, e li te pase yon tan kon etranje nan Guérar.
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister. And Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
Abraham te di selon Sarah, madanm li: “Li se sè mwen”. Alò, Abimélec, wa nan Guérar a te vin pran Sarah.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, Behold, thou are but a dead man, because of the woman whom thou have taken, for she is a man's wife.
Men Bondye te vini a Abimélec nan yon rèv nan nwit, e Li te di li: “Veye byen, ou se yon moun ki fin mouri akoz fanm ke ou te pran an, paske li marye.”
4 Now Abimelech had not come near her. And he said, Lord, will thou slay even a righteous nation?
Alò, Abimélec pa t gen tan pwoche li, epi li te reponn: “Senyè, èske Ou va detwi yon nasyon, malgre li san fot?
5 Did he not himself say to me, She is my sister? And she, even she herself said, He is my brother. In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands I have done this.
Èske li menm, li pa t di mwen: ‘Li se sè mwen?’ Epi li menm, li te di: ‘Li se frè m.’ Nan entegrite kè m, ak inosans men m, mwen te fè sa.”
6 And God said to him in the dream, Yes, I know that in the integrity of thy heart thou have done this. And I also withheld thee from sinning against me. Therefore I did not allow thee to touch her.
Konsa, Bondye te di li nan rèv la: “Wi, Mwen konnen ke nan entegrite kè ou, ou te fè sa, e Mwen osi te anpeche ou pou ou pa t peche kont Mwen. Se pou sa Mwen pa t kite ou touche li.
7 Now therefore restore the man's wife. For he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shall live. And if thou do not restore her, know thou that thou shall surely die, thou, and all that are thine.
Alò, pou sa, remèt madanm a nonm sa a. Paske se yon pwofèt ke li ye. Li va priye pou ou e ou va viv. Men si ou pa remèt li, konnen ke ou va anverite mouri, ou menm avèk tout moun sa yo ki pou ou yo.”
8 And Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ear. And the men were exceedingly afraid.
Konsa, Abimélec te leve granmmaten. Li te rele tout sèvitè li yo, e te di tout bagay sa yo pou yo tande. Mesye sa yo te gen gwo laperèz.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, What have thou done to us? And in what have I sinned against thee, that thou have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? Thou have done deeds to me that ought not to be done.
Alò, Abimélec te rele Abraham. Li te di li: “Kisa ou te fè nou? Epi kijan mwen te peche kont ou ke ou te pote sou mwen ak wayòm mwen yon gran peche? Ou te fè m bagay ou pa ta janm dwe fè.”:
10 And Abimelech said to Abraham, What did thou see, that thou have done this thing?
Epi Abimélec te di a Abraham: “Sak rive ou ki fè ou fè bagay sa a?”
11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they will kill me because of my wife.
Abraham te di: “Paske, mwen te reflechi ke asireman, pa gen lakrent Bondye nan plas sa a, e yo va touye mwen akoz madanm mwen.
12 And moreover she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother, and she became my wife.
Anplis de sa, vrèman li se sè mwen, fi a papa m, men pa fi a manman m, e li te vin madanm mwen.
13 And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, This is thy kindness which thou shall show to me. At every place where we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.
Lè li te rive ke Bondye te fè m vwayaje pou kite kay papa m, mwen te di li: ‘Men yon gras ke ou va fè m: tout kote nou ale, di pa mwen menm: ‘Li se frè m.’’”
14 And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and men-servants and women-servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored to him Sarah his wife.
Konsa, Abimélec te pran mouton avèk bèf avèk sèvitè li yo, mal ak femèl. Li te bay yo a Abraham, e li te remèt madanm li, Sarah bay li.
15 And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee. Dwell where it pleases thee.
Abimélec te di: “Byen gade, peyi mwen an devan ou. Etabli ou kote ou pito.”
16 And to Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver. Behold, it is for thee a covering of the eyes to all who are with thee. And in regard to all thou are righted.
A Sarah, li te di: “Byen gade, mwen te bay frè ou mil pyès an ajan. Veye byen, li se revandikasyon ou devan zye tout moun ki avèk ou. E devan tout, ke ou egzonore.”
17 And Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maid-servants. And they bore sons.
Abraham te priye a Bondye, e Bondye te geri Abimélec avèk madanm li, avèk mennaj li yo, pou yo te vin fè pitit.
18 For Jehovah had closed up fast all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
Paske SENYÈ a te fèmen vant yo a tout kay Abimélec la akoz Sarah, madanm Abraham nan.
