< Genesis 20 >

1 And Abraham departed thence towards the south country, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned at 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 the 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 by night, and said to him, Behold, thou art [but] a dead man, because of the woman that thou hast 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 But Abimelech had not come near her. And he said, Lord, wilt thou also kill 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 say to me, She is my sister? and she, even she said, He is my brother. In the integrity of my heart and in the innocency of my hands have I 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 a dream, I also knew that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart, and I, too, have withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore have I not suffered 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 And now, restore the man's wife; for he is a prophet, and will pray for thee, that thou mayest live. And if thou do not restore [her], know that thou shalt certainly die, thou and all that is 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 spoke all these words in their ears; and the men were greatly 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 And Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, What hast thou done to us? And in what have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought on me, and on my kingdom, a great sin? Thou hast done to me deeds 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 hast thou seen that thou hast done this?
Epi Abimélec te di a Abraham: “Sak rive ou ki fè ou fè bagay sa a?”
11 And Abraham said, Because I said, Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they will kill me for my wife's sake.
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 But she is also truly 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, Let this be thy kindness which thou shalt shew to me: at every place whither 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 bondmen and bondwomen, and gave [them] to Abraham, and restored 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 is good in thine eyes.
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, let that be to thee a covering of the eyes, in respect of all that are with thee, and with all; and she was reproved.
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 handmaids, and they bore [children].
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 fast closed up 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.
