Judges 1
1 And it came to pass after the death of Joshua that the children of Israel asked Jehovah, saying, Which of us shall go up against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?
Apre Jozye mouri, pèp Izrayèl la mande Seyè a: -Nan tout branch fanmi nou yo, kilès ladan yo ki pou al atake moun Kanaran yo anvan?
2 And Jehovah said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.
Seyè a reponn yo: -Se branch fanmi Jida a ki pou premye ale. Se mwen menm k'ap lage tout peyi a nan men yo.
3 And Judah said to Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, and let us fight against the Canaanites, and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot; and Simeon went with him.
Moun Jida yo di moun Simeyon yo konsa: -Ann al ansanm ak nou nan pòsyon tè yo ban nou an, nou menm moun Jida yo. Enpi n'a mete ansanm pou goumen ak moun Kanaran yo. Apre sa, nou menm moun Jida yo, n'a ale ansanm ak nou nan pòsyon tè yo ban nou an, nou menm moun Simeyon yo. Se konsa, moun Simeyon yo ale ansanm ak
4 And Judah went up; and Jehovah delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, and they smote them in Bezek, ten thousand men.
moun Jida yo, yo moute al goumen. Seyè a lage moun Kanaran yo ak moun Ferezi yo nan men yo. Yo bat yon lame dimil (10.000) sòlda nan lavil Bezèk.
5 And they found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and fought against him, and they smote the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Yo jwenn Adonibezèk l'a tou. Yo goumen avè l'. Yo bat moun Kanaran yo ak moun Ferezi yo byen bat.
6 And Adoni-Bezek fled, and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
Adonibezèk te kouri pou yo. Yo kouri dèyè l', yo mete men sou li, epi yo koupe de dwèt gwopous li yo ak de gwo tèt zòtèy pye l' yo.
7 And Adoni-Bezek said, Seventy kings, with their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gleaned under my table: as I have done, so God has requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.
Lè sa a, Adonibezèk di: -Mwen te koupe dwèt gwopous ak gwo tèt zòtèy pye swasanndis wa. Yo te konn ranmase kras manje ki tonbe anba tab mwen. Jòdi a, Bondye fè m' sa m' te fè yo a. Yo mennen msye lavil Jerizalèm. Se la li mouri.
8 And the children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
Moun fanmi Jida yo al atake lavil Jerizalèm, epi yo pran l'. Yo touye dènye moun ki te rete la, lèfini yo mete dife ladan l'.
9 And afterwards the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites, that dwelt in the hill-country, and in the south, and in the lowland.
Apre sa, y' al goumen ak moun Kanaran ki t'ap viv nan mòn yo ak nan pye mòn yo nan Negèv la.
10 And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron — the name of Hebron before was Kirjath-Arba; and they slew Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai.
Moun Jida yo atake moun Kanaran ki te rete lavil Ebwon, ki te rele anvan sa Kiriyat Aba. Yo bat Chechayi, Ayiman ak Talmayi.
11 And from there he went against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher.
Yo kite Ebwon, yo mache al atake moun ki te rete lavil Debi yo. Nan tan lontan yo te rete lavil sa a Kiriyat-Sefè.
12 And Caleb said, He that smites Kirjath-sepher and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.
Kalèb di: -Moun ki va resi pran lavil Kiriyat-Sefè a, m'ap marye l' ak Aksa, pitit fi mwen an.
13 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
Se Otonyèl, pitit gason Kenaz, ti frè Kalèb la, ki te pran lavil la. Konsa, Kalèb ba li Aksa, pitit fi li a, pou madanm.
14 And it came to pass as she came, that she urged him to ask of her father the field; and she sprang down from the ass. And Caleb said to her, What wouldest thou?
Lè Aksa rive lakay mari l', mari a di l' poukisa li pa mande papa l' yon bon jaden. Akza al jwenn Kalèb. Desann li desann bourik li, Kalèb mande l': -Sak genyen, pitit mwen?
15 And she said to him, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a southern land; give me also springs of water. And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
Akza reponn: -Mwen vin mande ou yon favè. Se ou menm ki voye m' al viv nan dezè Negèv la, se pou ou ban m' kote pou m' pran dlo tou. Se konsa Kalèb ba li Sous Dlo Anwo ak Sous Dlo Anba Negèv la.
16 And the children of the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, had gone up out of the city of palm-trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the south of Arad; and they went and dwelt with the people.
Moun Kayen yo, fanmi bòpè Moyiz la, kite lavil Palmis. Yo moute ansanm ak moun Jida yo nan dezè peyi Jida a sou bò sid lavil Arad. Se la y' al rete ansanm ak moun Amalèk yo.
17 And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it; and they called the name of the city Hormah.
Moun Jida yo ale ansanm ak moun Simeyon yo, yo bat moun Kanaran ki te rete lavil Zefa yo. Yo detwi lavil la, yo touye dènye moun ak dènye bèt ki te ladan l'. Yo boule yo tankou yon ofrann pou Seyè a. Yo chanje non lavil la, yo rele l' Oma.
18 And Judah took Gazah and its border, and Ashkelon and its border, and Ekron and its border.
Moun Jida yo pa t' pran lavil Gaza ak tout zòn ki sou zòd li, lavil Askalon ak tout zòn ki sou zòd li, lavil Ekwon ak tout zòn ki sou zòd li.
19 And Jehovah was with Judah; and he took possession of the hill-country, for he did not dispossess the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
Seyè a te kanpe ak moun Jida yo, li fè yo pran tout mòn yo pou yo. Men, yo pa t' kapab mete moun ki nan laplenn yo deyò paske yo te gen cha lagè fèt an fè.
20 And they gave to Caleb Hebron, as Moses had said; and he dispossessed from thence the three sons of Anak.
Jan Moyiz te bay lòd la, yo pran lavil Ebwon bay Kalèb. Kalèb mete twa pitit gason Anak yo deyò nan lavil la.
21 And the children of Benjamin did not dispossess the Jebusites, the inhabitants of Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
Men, moun branch fanmi Benjamen yo pa t' mete moun Jebis yo deyò nan lavil Jerizalèm. Se konsa moun Jebis yo rete ap viv ansanm ak moun Benjamen yo nan lavil Jerizalèm jouk jòdi a.
22 And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Bethel; and Jehovah was with them.
Moun de branch fanmi Jozèf yo moute al atake lavil Betèl ki te rele Louz anvan sa. Seyè a te kanpe avèk yo tou.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to search out Bethel; now the name of the city before was Luz.
Yo voye kèk moun an kachèt al wè jan sa ye nan lavil la.
24 And the guards saw a man come forth out of the city, and said unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, how [we] may enter into the city, and we will shew thee kindness.
Moun yo te voye yo kontre yon nonm ki t'ap soti lavil la. Yo di l' konsa: -Moutre nou ki jan moun ka antre nan lavil la. Nou pwomèt ou nou p'ap fè ou anyen.
25 And he shewed them how to enter into the city. And they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family.
Se konsa nonm lan moutre yo ki jan pou yo antre nan lavil la. Yo touye tout moun ki te nan lavil la, esepte nonm lan ansanm ak tout fanmi l'.
26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.
Apre sa, nonm lan pati ale nan peyi moun Et yo. Li bati yon lavil laba a, li rele l' Louz. Se konsa yo rele lavil la jouk jòdi a.
27 And Manasseh did not dispossess Beth-shean and its dependent villages, nor Taanach and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its dependent villages; and the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Moun branch fanmi Manase yo pa t' rive mete tout moun deyò nan lavil Bèt Chean, nan lavil Tanak, nan lavil Dò, nan lavil Jibleyam, nan lavil Megibo ak nan tout ti bouk ki te sou kont yo. Konsa, moun Kanaran yo te toujou ap viv nan peyi a.
28 And it came to pass when Israel became strong, that they made the Canaanites tributary; but they did not utterly dispossess them.
Lè moun Izrayèl yo te vin pi fò, yo fòse moun Kanaran yo travay pou yo, men, yo pa janm mete yo deyò.
29 And Ephraim did not dispossess the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt among them in Gezer.
Moun branch fanmi Efrayim yo tou pa t' mete moun Kanaran yo deyò nan lavil Gezè. Se konsa, moun Kanaran yo rete viv la ansanm ak yo.
30 Zebulun did not dispossess the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became tributaries.
Moun branch fanmi Zabilon yo pa t' mete moun Kanaran yo deyò nan lavil Kitwon ak nan lavil Naalòl. Moun Kanaran yo te rete viv ansanm ak yo, men yo te blije travay pou moun Zabilon yo.
31 Asher did not dispossess the inhabitants of Accho, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor Ahlab, nor Achzib, nor Helbah, nor Aphik, nor Rehob;
Moun branch fanmi Asè yo pa t' mete moun Kanaran yo deyò nan lavil Sidon, lavil Alad, lavil Akzid, lavil Elba, lavil Afik ak lavil Reyòb.
32 and the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land; for they did not dispossess them.
Se konsa, moun Asè yo t'ap viv ansanm ak moun Kanaran ki te rete nan peyi a, paske yo pa t' mete yo deyò.
33 Naphtali did not dispossess the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath; and he dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, but the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and of Beth-anath became tributaries to them.
Moun branch fanmi Nèftali yo pa t' mete moun Kanaran yo deyò nan lavil Bèt-Chemèch, ni nan lavil Bèt Anat. Yo te rete ansanm ak moun Kanaran ki te rete nan peyi a. Men, moun lavil Bèt-Chemèch ak moun lavil Bèt anat yo te blije travay pou yo.
34 And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the hill-country, for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley.
Moun Amori yo menm te kwense moun fanmi Dann yo nan mòn yo. Yo pa t' kite yo desann nan plenn lan menm.
35 And the Amorites would dwell on mount Heres, in Ajalon and in Shaalbim; but the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, and they became tributaries.
Se konsa, moun Amori yo rete rete yo nan mòn Erès, nan lavil Ayalon ak nan lavil Chalbim. Men, lè moun fanmi Jozèf yo rive donminen sou yo, yo fè yo travay pou yo.
36 And the border of the Amorites was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rock, and upwards.
Fwontyè peyi moun Amori yo te konmanse depi pas Eskòpyon yo, moute rive gwo Wòch.
