Deuteronomy 13
1 If there arise among you a prophet, or one that dreameth dreams, and he give thee a sign or a wonder,
Si ta gen nan mitan nou yon pwofèt osinon yon moun ki konn fè vizyon, epi ki ta fè konnen kèk siy osinon kèk gwo bagay pral rive nan mitan nou,
2 and the sign or the wonder come to pass that he told unto thee, when he said, Let us go after other gods, whom thou hast not known, and let us serve them,
si sa li te anonse a rive vre epi li ta vin di nou: Ann al swiv lòt bondye nou poko konnen menm yo! Ann al fè sèvis pou yo!
3 — thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams; for Jehovah your God proveth you, to know whether ye love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
nou pa fèt pou nou koute pawòl pwofèt sa a ap di, ni sa moun ki konn fè vizyon an ap vin rakonte nan zòrèy nou. Paske se Seyè a, Bondye nou an, k'ap sonde nou, l'ap chache konnen si vreman vre nou renmen Seyè a ak tout kè nou, ak tout nanm nou.
4 Ye shall walk after Jehovah your God, and ye shall fear him, and his commandments shall ye keep, and his voice shall ye hear; and ye shall serve him, and unto him shall ye cleave.
Se Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou nou swiv. Se li menm pou nou gen krentif. Se lòd li pou nou swiv. Se sa li di nou pou nou koute. Se li menm pou nou sèvi. Pa janm vire do ba li.
5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; for he hath spoken revolt against Jehovah your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, — to draw thee out of the way that Jehovah thy God commanded thee to walk in; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.
Kanta pou pwofèt sa a, osinon moun k'ap fè vizyon an, se pou nou touye yo. Paske y'ap ban nou konsèy pou nou kenbe tèt ak Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip epi ki te wete nou nan esklavaj nou te ye laba a. Se pou nou touye yo, paske y'ap chache fè nou kite chemen Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te mete devan nou pou nou te swiv la. Se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
6 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, who is to thee as thy soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods (whom thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
Si yon frè nou, bò papa osinon bò manman, osinon yon pitit gason nou, osinon yonn nan pitit fi nou, osinon madanm k'ap viv nan menm kay avèk nou, osinon ankò yonn nan bon bon zanmi nou ta chache pran tèt nou an kachèt pou fè n' al sèvi lòt bondye, bondye ni nou menm ni zansèt nou yo pa t' janm konnen,
7 of the gods of the peoples which are round about you, near unto thee, or far from thee, from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth),
yonn nan bondye lòt moun k'ap viv ansanm avèk nou sou latè, kit yo toupre nou, kit yo byen lwen nou,
8 thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye spare him, neither shalt thou pity him, neither shalt thou screen him,
pa janm tonbe dakò avèk li. Pa koute sa l'ap di nou. Se pou nou san pitye pou li. Pa chache pwoteje li, pa chache kouvri anyen pou li.
9 but thou shalt in any case kill him: thy hand shall be the first against him to put him to death, and afterwards the hands of all the people;
Okontrè, se pou nou touye l'. Premye moun ki pou leve men sou li pou touye l' ak koutwòch se va nou menm. Apre sa, n'a kite lòt moun vin ede nou touye l'.
10 and thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; for he hath sought to draw thee away from Jehovah thy God who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
N'a kalonnen l' wòch jouk li mouri, paske li te vle fè nou vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, li menm ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip kote nou te nan esklavaj la.
11 and all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wicked thing as this in thy midst.
Lè sa a, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo va konn sa, y'a pè. Konsa, yo yonn p'ap janm fè yon bagay mal konsa ankò nan mitan pèp la.
12 If in one of thy cities, which Jehovah thy God hath given thee to dwell there, thou hearest, saying,
Si nou vin tande y'ap di nan yonn nan lavil Seyè a ban nou pou nou rete yo,
13 There are men, children of Belial, gone out from among you, and they have drawn away the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, whom ye have not known;
gen kèk moun, kèk vòryen, moun menm ras ak nou ki te pran tèt moun k'ap viv nan lavil sa a pou fè yo al sèvi lòt bondye nou pa janm konnen,
14 then shalt thou inquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and if it be truth, [and] the thing be certain, that this abomination hath happened in the midst of thee,
se pou nou chache konnen bagay la byen. N'a mennen ti ankèt nou, n'a poze keksyon adwat agoch. Si bri y'ap fè kouri a vre, si nou jwenn prèv yon bagay mal konsa te fèt vre,
15 thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, devoting it to destruction, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword.
se pou nou pran nepe nou, se pou nou touye dènye moun ki nan lavil sa a ansanm ak tout bèt yo. Se pou nou detwi lavil la nèt nan dife pou Bondye ansanm ak tou sa ki ladan l'.
16 And all the spoil of it shalt thou gather into the midst of the open place thereof, and shalt burn the city with fire, and all the spoil thereof, wholly to Jehovah thy God; and it shall be a heap for ever; it shall not be built again.
N'a ranmase tou sa moun yo te genyen nan lavil la, n'a anpile yo sou plas piblik la. N'a mete dife nan lavil la ak tou sa ki ladan l' pou yo sèvi yon ofrann pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Se pou lavil la toujou rete yon pil mazi pou li pa janm rebati ankò.
17 And thou shalt not let anything cleave to thy hand of the devoted thing; that Jehovah may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and shew thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;
Piga nou kenbe pou nou anyen nan bagay nou fèt pou boule pou Seyè a. Se konsa Seyè a va sispann fache sou nou, l'a gen pitye pou nou. Wi, l'a fè pa nou. L'a fè nou peple jan li te pwomèt sa bay zansèt nou yo.
18 when thou hearkenest to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, that thou mayest do what is right in the eyes of Jehovah thy God.
Men, se pou nou toujou koute sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap di nou. Se pou nou toujou kenbe tout lòd m'ap ban nou jòdi a. Se pou nou toujou fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
