1 Chronicles 4
1 The descendants of Judah: Perez, Hezron, Carmi, Hur, and Shobal.
Men non lòt pitit gason Jida te gen: Perèz, Ezwon, Kami, Our ak Chobal.
2 Reaiah son of Shobal was the father of Jahath, and Jahath was the father of Ahumai and Lahad. These were the clans of the Zorathites.
Chobal te papa Reaja, Reaja te papa Jakat, Jakat te papa Akoumayi ak Laad. Se yo ki zansèt moun ki rete lavil Zora.
3 These were the sons of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma, and Idbash. And their sister was named Hazzelelponi.

9 Now Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.”
Te gen yon moun yo te rele Jabez. Nan tout fanmi l', se li menm yo te pi respekte. Manman l' te rele l' konsa, paske li te soufri anpil lè li t'ap fè l'.
10 And Jabez called out to the God of Israel, “If only You would bless me and enlarge my territory! May Your hand be with me and keep me from harm, so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted the request of Jabez.
Men Jabèz te lapriyè Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, li te di l': -Tanpri, Bondye, beni mwen. Ban m' anpil tè. Kanpe la ave m'. Pa kite ankenn malè rive m' pou m' pa soufri. Se konsa Bondye ba li sa l' te mande a.
11 Chelub the brother of Shuhah was the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton.

12 Eshton was the father of Beth-rapha, of Paseah, and of Tehinnah the father of Ir-nahash. These were the men of Recah.
Echton te papa Betrafa, Pasea ak Techima. Se Techima ki te tabli lavil Nagach. Se fanmi moun sa yo ki rete lavil Reka.
13 The sons of Kenaz: Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel: Hathath and Meonothai.

Merèd te pran yon fanm nan branch fanmi Jida a tou pou madanm. Madanm sa a ba li twa pitit gason: Jerèd, papa Gedò, Ebè, papa Soko, ak Jekoutiyèl, papa Zanoa.
19 The sons of Hodiah’s wife, the sister of Naham, were the fathers of Keilah the Garmite and of Eshtemoa the Maacathite.
Odija marye ak sè Naam lan. Se pitit yo ki zansèt branch fanmi moun Gram yo ki te rete lavil Kejila, ak branch fanmi moun Makat yo ki te rete lavil Estemoa.

21 The sons of Shelah son of Judah: Er the father of Lecah, Laadah the father of Mareshah and the clans of the linen workers at Beth-ashbea,
Men moun ki nan branch fanmi Chela, pitit Jida a: Er, papa Leka, Lada, papa Marecha, branch fanmi moun ki fè bon twal fin nan lavil Bètachbea yo.
22 Jokim, the men of Cozeba, and Joash and Saraph, who ruled in Moab and Jashubi-lehem. (These names are from ancient records.)
Jokim, moun ki rete lavil Kozeba, Joas ak Saraf. Moun sa yo te marye ak fanm moun peyi Moab, lèfini yo tounen vin rete lavil Betleyèm, dapre sa moun lontan yo ap repete.
23 These were the potters who lived at Netaim and Gederah. They lived there in the service of the king.
Se moun ki te konn fè veso an tè. Yo te rete lavil Netayim ak lavil Gedera. Se yo ki te konn travay pou wa a.
24 The descendants of Simeon: Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Shaul.
Simeyon te gen senk pitit gason: Nemwèl, Jamen, Jarib, Zera ak Sayil.
25 The sons of Shaul: Shallum, Mibsam, and Mishma.
Sayil te papa Chaloum, Chaloum te papa Mibsam, Mibsam te papa Michma,
26 The sons of Mishma: Hammuel, Zaccur, and Shimei.
Michma te papa Amwèl, Amwèl te papa Zakou, Zakou te papa Chimeyi.
27 Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brothers did not have many children, so their whole clan did not become as numerous as the sons of Judah.
Chimeyi te gen sèz pitit gason ak sis pitit fi. Men lòt frè l' yo pa t' fè anpil pitit. Se konsa branch fanmi Simeyon an pa t' rive gen menm kantite moun ak branch fanmi Jida a.
28 They lived in Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-shual,
Rive sou rèy wa David, moun branch fanmi Simeyon yo te rete nan lavil sa yo: Becheba, Molada, Azachwal,

32 And their villages were Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen, and Ashan—five towns—
Yo te rete nan senk lòt kote apre sa: Etam, Ayin, Rimon, Tochenn ak Achan,
33 and all their surrounding villages as far as Baal. These were their settlements, and they kept a genealogical record:
ak tout ti bouk ki nan vwazinaj yo, rive lavil Balat, nan direksyon sid. Tou sa se kote yo t'ap viv ak liv rejis fanmi yo.

37 and Ziza son of Shiphi (son of Allon, son of Jedaiah, son of Shimri, son of Shemaiah).

38 These men listed by name were the leaders of their clans. Their families increased greatly,
Tout moun nou sot nonmen la yo te chèf nan fanmi yo. Branch fanmi an t'ap peple toujou.
39 and they journeyed to the entrance of Gedor, to the east side of the valley, in search of pasture for their flocks.
Y' al chache patiraj pou mouton yo toupre lavil Gedò, sou bò solèy leve nan fon kote lavil la ye a.
40 There they found rich, good pasture, and the land was spacious, peaceful, and quiet; for some Hamites had lived there formerly.
La, yo jwenn yon bon patiraj ki te fre nan yon plenn kote ki pa t' gen bri ni dezòd. Se la moun branch fanmi Kam yo te rete nan tan lontan.
41 These who were noted by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. They attacked the Hamites and Meunites there in their dwellings, devoting them to destruction even to this day. Then they settled in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks.
Sou rèy Ezekyas, wa peyi Jida, moun nou sot bay non yo la a rive lavil Gedò, yo touye moun fanmi Kam yo nèt tankou yon ofrann pou Bondye. Yo detwi tout lavil la ak ti joupa moun yo. Yo pran plas moun yo nan peyi a, paske te gen anpil bon patiraj pou mouton ak kabrit yo.
42 And five hundred of these Simeonites led by Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi, went to Mount Seir
Senksan (500) lòt moun nan branch fanmi Simeyon an pati pou mòn Seyi, nan peyi Edon. Yo te gen pou chèf kat pitit gason Icheyi yo: Pelatya, Nearya, Refaja ak Ouzyèl.
43 and struck down the remnant of the Amalekites who had escaped. And they have lived there to this day.
Lè yo rive, yo touye rès moun Amalèk yo. Depi lè sa a se la yo rete jouk jounen jòdi a.
