< Leviticus 23 >

1 And the Lord said to Moses,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
2 Say to the children of Israel, These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, which you will keep for holy meetings: these are my feasts.
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo. W'a di yo pou mwen: Men jou pou nou mande pèp la pou li reyini pou fè fèt pou Seyè a. Men lè pou nou fè fèt pou mwen.
3 On six days work may be done; but the seventh day is a special day of rest, a time for worship; you may do no sort of work: it is a Sabbath to the Lord wherever you may be living.
Chak senmenn nou gen sis jou pou n' fè travay nou. Men, setyèm jou a se jou repo. Jou sa a, piga nou fè ankenn travay. Se jou n'a reyini pou n' fè sèvis pou Bondye. Jou repo a se pou Seyè a li ye. Nenpòt kote nou rete jou sa a, piga nou fè ankenn travay lakay nou.
4 These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, the holy days of worship which you will keep at their regular times.
Men jou pou nou fè fèt pou Seyè a, jou pou nou mande pèp la pou li reyini pou fè fèt pou Seyè a. Men dat pou nou reyini pèp la pou fèt yo:
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at nightfall, is the Lord's Passover;
N'a fete fèt Delivrans lan pou Seyè a chak lanne, nan katòzyèm jou premye mwa a. N'a konmanse fèt la lè solèy fin kouche.
6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread; for seven days let your food be unleavened bread.
Sou kenzyèm jou premye mwa a, n'a konmanse fèt pen san ledven yo. Pandan sèt jou, n'a manje pen ki fèt san ledven.
7 On the first day you will have a holy meeting; you may do no sort of field-work.
Premye jou a, n'a reyini tout pèp la pou n' fè sèvis pou Bondye. Nou p'ap fè ankenn gwo travay jou sa a.
8 And every day for seven days you will give a burned offering to the Lord; and on the seventh day there will be a holy meeting; you may do no field-work.
Pandan sèt jou n'a boule ofrann nan dife pou Seyè a. Sou setyèm jou a, n'a reyini tout pèp la ankò pou n' adore Seyè a. Jou sa a, nou p'ap fè ankenn gwo travay non plis.
9 And the Lord said to Moses,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
10 Say to the children of Israel, When you have come to the land which I will give you, and have got in the grain from its fields, take some of the first-fruits of the grain to the priest;
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Men sa pou ou di yo. Lè n'a antre nan peyi m'ap ban nou an, lè n'a fin ranmase premye rekòt grenn nan jaden nou, n'a pran premye makout la, n'a pote l' bay prèt la.
11 And let the grain be waved before the Lord, so that you may be pleasing to him; on the day after the Sabbath let it be waved by the priest.
Prèt la va balanse l' devan Seyè a tankou yon ofrann espesyal, pou Seyè a ka asepte resevwa nou. Prèt la va fè ofrann lan jou ki vini apre jou repo a.
12 And on the day of the waving of the grain, you are to give a male lamb of the first year, without any mark, for a burned offering to the Lord.
Jou n'ap fè ofrann premye makout rekòt la, n'a pran yon ti belye ki pa gen ankenn enfimite epi ki poko gen ennan, n'a boule l' nèt pou Seyè a.
13 And let the meal offering with it be two tenth parts of an ephah of the best meal mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to the Lord for a sweet smell; and the drink offering with it is to be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.
N'a ofri ansanm avè l' tou katòz ti mamit farin frans melanje ak lwil oliv pou nou boule nan dife pou Seyè a. Bon sant ofrann lan va fè Seyè a plezi. N'a ofri tou yon boutèy ka diven pou yo vide pou Seyè a.
14 And you may take no bread or dry grain or new grain for food till the very day on which you have given the offering for your God: this is a rule for ever through all your generations wherever you are living.
Piga nou pran nan grenn nou fèk rekòlte yo ni pou nou manje kri, ni pou nou griye, ni pou nou fè pen, toutotan nou pa pote ofrann premye grenn yo bay Seyè a. Se va yon regleman pou nou swiv tout tan, de pitit an pitit, kote nou pase.
15 And let seven full weeks be numbered from the day after the Sabbath, the day when you give the grain for the wave offering;
N'a konte sèt semèn antye, depi jou nou te pote premye makout rekòt la ofri bay Seyè a, apre jou repo a.
16 Let fifty days be numbered, to the day after the seventh Sabbath; then you are to give a new meal offering to the Lord.
Wi, n'a konte senkant jou. Sa va mennen nou sou jou ki vini apre setyèm jou repo a. N'a fè yon lòt ofrann grenn jaden bay Seyè a.
17 Take from your houses two cakes of bread, made of a fifth part of an ephah of the best meal, cooked with leaven, to be waved for first-fruits to the Lord.
Chak fanmi va soti lakay yo ak de gwo pen pou yo ofri bay Seyè a. Chak pen va fèt ak de liv farin kwit ak ledven. Y'a ofri yo bay Seyè a tankou ofrann premye grenn yo rekòlte.
18 And with the bread, take seven lambs of the first year, without any marks, and one ox and two male sheep, to be a burned offering to the Lord, with their meal offering and their drink offerings, an offering of a sweet smell made by fire to the Lord.
Ansanm ak pen yo, pèp la va ofri sèt ti mouton ki poko gen ennan, yon jenn ti towo bèf ak de belye. Fòk tout bèt sa yo pa gen ankenn enfimite. Y'a boule yo nèt nan dife pou Seyè a, ansanm ak ofrann grenn jaden yo ak ofrann diven an. Bon sant ofrann sa a va fè Seyè a plezi.
19 And you are to give one male goat for a sin-offering and two male lambs of the first year for peace-offerings.
N'a touye tou yon bouk ki va sèvi ofrann pou peye pou tou sa nou fè ki mal, ak de ti mouton ki poko gen ennan ki va sèvi ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi.
20 And these will be waved by the priest, with the bread of the first-fruits, for a wave offering to the Lord, with the two lambs: they will be holy to the Lord for the priest.
Prèt la va balanse pen yo ansanm ak de ti mouton yo tankou yon ofrann espesyal devan Seyè a. Ofrann sa yo se bagay ki apa nèt pou Seyè a. Se pou prèt yo yo ye.
21 And on the same day, let it be given out that there will be a holy meeting for you: you may do no field-work on that day: it is a rule for ever through all your generations wherever you are living.
Jou sa a, n'a reyini pèp la pou l' adore Bondye. Pesonn p'ap fè gwo travay. Sa se regleman pou nou swiv tout tan, de pitit an pitit, kote nou pase.
22 And when you get in the grain from your land, do not let all the grain at the edges of the field be cut, and do not take up the grain which has been dropped in the field; let that be for the poor, and for the man from another country: I am the Lord your God.
Lè n'ap fè rekòt nan jaden nou, se pa pou nou ranmase grenn ki toupre lizyè jaden an, ni nou pa bezwen tounen dèyè pou ranmase grenn ki te tonbe atè. W'a kite yo pou moun peyi a ki pa genyen ak pou moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
23 And the Lord said to Moses,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
24 Say to the children of Israel, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, let there be a special day of rest for you, a day of memory, marked by the blowing of horns, a meeting for worship.
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Men sa pou ou di yo: Premye jou setyèm mwa a va yon gwo jou repo pou nou. Jou sa a n'a kònen twonpèt pou fè moun yo chonje se jou pou yo reyini pou adore Bondye.
25 Do no field-work and give to the Lord an offering made by fire.
Piga nou fè gwo travay. N'a fè ofrann pou yo boule nan dife pou Seyè a.
26 And the Lord said to Moses,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l':
27 The tenth day of this seventh month is the day for the taking away of sin; let it be a holy day of worship; you are to keep from pleasure, and give to the Lord an offering made by fire.
-Dizyèm jou sètyèm mwa sa a, se gran jou padon an li ye. N'a reyini tout moun pou n' adore Bondye. N'a fè jèn epi n'a fè ofrann pou yo boule nan dife devan Seyè a.
28 And on that day you may do no sort of work, for it is a day of taking away sin, to make you clean before the Lord your God.
Jou sa a, nou p'ap travay menm, paske se gran jou padon an, jou pou nou fè sèvis pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou nou mande l' fè nou gras.
29 For any person, whoever he may be, who takes his pleasure on that day will be cut off from his people.
Si yon moun mete anyen nan bouch li jou sa a, y'ap wete l' nan mitan pèp li a.
30 And if any person, whoever he may be, on that day does any sort of work, I will send destruction on him from among his people.
Si yon moun travay jou sa a, se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap touye l'.
31 You may not do any sort of work: this is an order for ever through all your generations wherever you may be living.
Nou pa pou fè anyen jou sa a. Sa se regleman pou nou swiv tout tan, de pitit an pitit, kote nou pase.
32 Let this be a Sabbath of special rest to you, and keep yourselves from all pleasure; on the ninth day of the month at nightfall from evening to evening, let this Sabbath be kept.
Se va yon gwo jou repo, jou nou p'ap fè ankenn travay. Depi lè solèy kouche nan nevyèm jou mwa a jouk lè li kouche ankò dizyèm jou a, n'a rete san manje.
33 And the Lord said to Moses,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l':
34 Say to the children of Israel, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month let the feast of tents be kept to the Lord for seven days.
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo, w'a di yo konsa: N'a fete fèt joupa yo pandan sèt jou. N'a konmanse sou kenzyèm jou setyèm mwa a.
35 On the first day there will be a holy meeting: do no field-work.
Premye jou a, n'a reyini tout moun pou adore Bondye. Pesonn p'ap fè gwo travay jou sa a.
36 Every day for seven days give an offering made by fire to the Lord; and on the eighth day there is to be a holy meeting, when you are to give an offering made by fire to the Lord; this is a special holy day: you may do no field-work on that day.
Chak jou, pandan sèt jou, n'a boule ofrann nan dife pou Seyè a. Sou wityèm jou a, n'a reyini moun yo ankò pou adore Bondye, epi n'a boule ofrann nan dife pou Seyè a. Se va yon jou pou adore Bondye. Jou sa a, piga nou fè gwo travay.
37 These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, to be kept by you as holy days of worship, for making an offering by fire to the Lord; a burned offering, a meal offering, an offering of beasts, and drink offerings; every one on its special day;
Men fèt pou nou fete pou Seyè a. Men jou n'a reyini tout moun pou yo fè sèvis pou Bondye. Men ofrann pou nou boule nan dife pou Seyè a, se ka bèt pou nou boule nèt, se ka ofrann grenn jaden, se ka bèt pou nou touye, se ka ofrann diven. Chak jou fèt gen ofrann pa li.
38 In addition to the Sabbaths of the Lord, and in addition to the things you give and the oaths you make and the free offerings to the Lord.
Apa tout jou repo Seyè yo, n'a fete fèt sa yo tou. Apa kado pou nou fè nòmalman, apa ofrann n'ap fè paske nou te fè ve, apa ofrann n'ap fè pou Seyè a paske nou te vle fè l', n'a fè ofrann sa yo.
39 But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have got in all the fruits of the land, you will keep the feast of the Lord for seven days: the first day will be a Sabbath, and the eighth day the same.
Sou kenzyèm jou setyèm mwa a, n'a fè fèt pou Seyè a pandan sèt jou, apre n'a fin rekòlte jaden nou yo. Premye jou a ak wityèm jou a va de gwo jou repo.
40 On the first day, take the fruit of fair trees, branches of palm-trees, and branches of thick trees and trees from the riverside, and be glad before the Lord for seven days.
Premye jou a, n'a keyi pi bon fwi nan pye sitwon nou yo, n'a koupe fèy nan pye dat nou yo ak branch nan pye jasmen ak pye sikren, n'a fè kè nou kontan devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pandan sèt jou.
41 And let this feast be kept before the Lord for seven days in the year: it is a rule for ever from generation to generation; in the seventh month let it be kept.
Chak lanne, pandan sèt jou nan setyèm mwa a, n'a fete fèt sa a pou mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Sa se yon regleman pou nou swiv tout tan, de pitit an pitit.
42 For seven days you will be living in tents; all those who are Israelites by birth are to make tents their living-places:
Pandan sèt jou tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo va rete anba joupa. Wi, n'a rete anba joupa pandan sèt jou.
43 So that future generations may keep in mind how I gave the children of Israel tents as their living-places when I took them out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
Konsa, pitit pitit nou yo va konnen mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen te fè pèp Izrayèl rete anba joupa lè mwen te fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip la. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
44 And Moses made clear to the children of Israel the orders about the fixed feasts of the Lord.
Se konsa Moyiz te bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo tout kalite fèt pou yo fete pou Seyè a.
