Numbers 32
1 And the sons of Ruben and Gad had many flocks of cattle, and their substance in beasts was infinite. And when they saw the lands of Jazer and Galaad fit for feeding cattle,
Alò, fis Ruben yo avèk fis Gad yo te gen vrèman yon gran kantite bèt. Konsa, lè yo te wè teren nan Jaezer a ak peyi a Galaad la, ke li te vrèman yon kote ki bon pou bèt.
2 They came to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and the princes of the multitude, and said:
Fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo te vin pale avèk Moïse ak Éléazar, prèt la, avèk chèf kongregasyon an. Yo te di yo,
3 Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nemra, Hesebon, and Eleale, and Saban, and Nebo, and Beon,
“Atharoth, Dibon, Jaezer, Nimra, Hesbon Elealé, Sebam, Nebo ak Beon,
4 The land, which the Lord hath conquered in the sight of the children of Israel, is a very fertile soil for the feeding of beasts: and we thy servants have very much cattle:
peyi ke SENYÈ a te bat devan kongregasyon Israël yo, se yon peyi ki pou pran swen bèt, e sèvitè ou yo gen bèt.”
5 And we pray thee, if we have found favour in thy sight, that thou give it to us thy servants in possession, and make us not pass over the Jordan.
Yo te di: “Si nou twouve favè nan zye ou, kite peyi sa a vin bay a sèvitè ou yo kòm yon posesyon. Pa mennen nou lòtbò Jourdain an.”
6 And Moses answered them: What, shall your brethren go to fight, and will you sit here?
Men Moïse te di a fis Gad yo e a fis Ruben yo: “Èske frè nou yo va ale nan lagè, pou nou menm rete chita isit la?
7 Why do ye overturn the minds of the children of Israel, that they may not dare to pass into the place which the Lord hath given them?
Koulye a, poukisa nou ap dekouraje fis Israël yo travèse lòtbò a pou antre nan peyi ke SENYÈ a te ba yo a?
8 Was it not thus your fathers did, when I sent from Cadesbarne to view the land?
Se sa ke papa nou yo te fè lè mwen te voye yo sòti nan Kadès-Barnéa pou wè peyi a.
9 And when they were come as far as the valley of the cluster, having viewed all the country, they overturned the hearts of the children of Israel, that they should not enter into the coasts, which the Lord gave them.
Paske, lè yo te monte nan vale Eschcol pou te wè peyi a, yo te dekouraje fis Israël yo jiskaske yo pa t antre nan peyi ke SENYÈ a te ba yo a.
10 And he swore in his anger, saying:
“Konsa, kòlè SENYÈ a te brile nan jou sa a, Li te sèmante, e te di:
11 If these men, that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land, which I promised with an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: because they would not follow me,
‘Okenn nan mesye sa yo ki monte kite Égypte, ki gen laj plis ke ventan p ap wè peyi ke Mwen te sèmante a Abraham, Isaac, e a Jacob la; paske yo pa t swiv Mwen nèt,
12 Except Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite, and Josue the son of Nun: these have fulfilled my will.
sof Caleb, fis a Jephunné a, Kenizyen an, ak Josué, fis a Nun nan, paske yo te swiv SENYÈ a nèt.’
13 And the Lord being angry against Israel, led them about through the desert forty years, until the whole generation, that had done evil in his sight, was consumed.
Konsa, chalè a SENYÈ a te brile kont Israël, e Li te fè yo vin egare nan dezè a pandan karantan, jiskaske tout jenerasyon sa a pami sila ki te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a yo, te vin detwi.
14 And behold, said he, you are risen up instead of your fathers, the increase and offspring of sinful men, to augment the fury of the Lord against Israel.
“Koulye a, veye byen, nou te vin leve nan plas papa nou yo, yon nich moun plen peche, pou vin mete menm plis sou kòlè SENYÈ a kont Israël.
15 For if you will not follow him, he will leave the people in the wilderness, and you shall be the cause of the destruction of all.
Paske si nou vire akote, e nou pa swiv Li, Li va, yon fwa, ankò abandone yo nan dezè a; epi nou va detwi tout pèp sa yo.”
16 But they coming near, said: We will make sheepfolds, and stalls for our cattle, and strong cities for our children:
Alò, yo te vin pwoche li e te di: “Nou va bati isit la pak mouton pou bèt nou yo ak vil pou pitit nou yo;
17 And we ourselves will go armed and ready for battle before the children of Israel, until we bring them in unto their places. Our little ones, and all we have, shall be in walled cities, for fear of the ambushes of the inhabitants.
men nou, nou menm, nou va pran zam tou prepare pou ale devan fis Israël yo, jiskaske nou enstale yo nan plas yo. Pandan pitit nou yo ap viv nan vil fòtifye akoz sila k ap viv nan peyi yo.
18 We will not return into our houses until the children of Israel possess their inheritance:
Nou p ap retounen lakay nou jiskaske chak moun nan fis Israël yo gen tan posede eritaj pa yo.
19 Neither will we seek any thing beyond the Jordan, because we have already our possession on the east side thereof,
Paske nou p ap gen yon eritaj avèk yo lòtbò Jourdain an, oswa pi lwen, paske eritaj pa nou an te tonbe bannou nan kote Jourdain a sila a, vè lès la.”
20 And Moses said to them: If you do what you promise, go on well appointed for war before the Lord:
Konsa Moïse te di yo: “Si nou va fè sa, si nou va pran zam nou yo devan SENYÈ a pou fè lagè a,
21 And let every fighting man pass over the Jordan, until the Lord overthrow his enemies:
epi nou tout mesye avèk zam yo travèse Jourdain a devan SENYÈ a jiskaske Li pouse lènmi Li yo soti devan Li,
22 And all the land be brought under him, then shall you be blameless before the Lord and before Israel, and you shall obtain the countries that you desire, before the Lord.
epi peyi a vin anba kontwòl devan SENYÈ a. Alò, apre nou va retounen, lib de angajman yo vè SENYÈ a, ak vè Israël. Konsa, peyi sila a va pou nou kòm yon posesyon devan SENYÈ a.
23 But if you do not what you say, no man can doubt but you sin against God: and know ye, that your sin shall overtake you.
“Men si nou pa fè sa, veye byen, nou te peche kont SENYÈ a, e fòk nou konnen ke peche nou va vin jwenn nou.
24 Build therefore cities for your children, and folds and stalls for your sheep and beasts, and accomplish what you have promised.
Bati pou nou menm gran vil pou pitit nou yo, pak pou mouton nou yo, e fè sa ke nou te pwomèt yo.”
25 And the children of Gad and Ruben said to Moses: We are thy servants, we will do what my lord commandeth.
Fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo te pale avèk Moïse. Yo te di: “Sèvitè ou yo va fè ojis sa ke mèt mwen kòmande yo a.
26 We will leave our children, and our wives and sheep and cattle, in the cities of Galaad:
Pitit nou yo, madanm nou yo, ak bèt nou yo va rete nan vil Galaad yo;
27 And we thy servants all well appointed will march on to the war, as thou, my lord, speakest.
pandan sèvitè ou yo, chak ki gen zam pou fè lagè, va travèse lòtbò nan prezans SENYÈ a pou batay la, jis jan ke mèt mwen pale.”
28 Moses therefore commanded Eleazar the priest, and Josue the son of Nun, and the princes of the families of all the tribes of Israel, and said to them:
Konsa, Moïse te pase lòd konsènan yo a Éléazar, prèt la, a Josué, fis a Nun nan, e a chèf lakay papa zansèt yo, a tribi a fis Israël yo.
29 If the children of Gad, and the children of Ruben pass with you over the Jordan, all armed for war before the Lord, and the land be made subject to you: give them Galaad in possession.
Moïse te di yo: “Si fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo, tout sila ki te pran zam pou batay yo, va travèse avèk nou lòtbò Jourdain an nan prezans SENYÈ a, e peyi a vin soumèt devan nou, alò nou va ba yo peyi a Galaad la kòm yon posesyon.
30 But if they will not pass armed with you into the land of Chanaan, let them receive places to dwell in among you.
Men si yo refize travèse avèk nou avèk zam yo, yo va genyen posesyon yo pami nou nan peyi Canaran.”
31 And the children of Gad, and the children of Ruben answered: As the Lord hath spoken to his servants, so will we do:
Fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo te reponn e te di: “Jan SENYÈ a te pale a sèvitè ou yo, konsa nou va fè.
32 We will go armed before the Lord into the land of Chanaan, and we confess that we have already received our possession beyond the Jordan.
Nou menm, nou va travèse lòtbò avèk zam yo nan prezans SENYÈ a, nan peyi Canaran, e posesyon eritaj nou va rete avèk nou lòt kote Jourdain an.”
33 Moses therefore gave to the children of Cad and of Ruben, and to the half tribe of Manasses the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sehon king of the Amorrhites, and the kingdom of Og king of Basan, and their land and the cities thereof round about.
Konsa, Moïse te bay yo, fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo, mwatye tribi fis a Joseph la, Manassé, wayòm a Sihon, wa a Amoreyen yo, wayòm a Og la, wa a Basan an, peyi a avèk vil pa yo, teritwa pa yo, vil a teritwa ki te antoure yo.
34 And the sons of Cad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
Fis a Gad yo te bati Dibon avèk Ataroth ak Aroër,
35 And Etroth, and Sophan, and Jazer, and Jegbaa,
Atroth-Schophan, Jaezer, Jogbetha,
36 And Bethnemra, and Betharan, fenced cities, and folds for their cattle.
Beth Nimra avèk Beth Haran, kòm vil byen fòtifye ak pak pou mouton.
37 But the children of Ruben built Hesebon, and Eleale, and Cariathaim,
Fis a Ruben yo te bati Hesbon, Elealé, avèk Kirjathaïm,
38 And Nabo, and Baalmeon (their names being changed) and Sabama: giving names to the cities which they had built.
Nebo avèk Baal-Meon——non ki te chanje yo—ak Sibma, e yo te bay lòt non a vil ke yo te bati yo.
39 Moreover the children of Machir, the son of Manasses, went into Galaad, and wasted it, cutting off the Amorrhites, the inhabitants thereof.
Fis a Makir yo, fis a Manassé yo te ale Galaad pou te pran li, e yo te deplase Amoreyen ki te rete ladann yo.
40 And Moses gave the land of Galaad to Machir the son of Manasses, and he dwelt in it.
Konsa, Moïse te bay Galaad a Makir, fis a Manassé a, e li te viv ladann.
41 And Jair the son of Manasses went, and took the villages thereof, and he called them Havoth Jair, that is to say, the villages of Jair.
Jaïr, fis a Manassé a te ale pran vil li yo, e li te rele yo Havvoth-jaïr.
42 Nobe also went, and took Canath with the villages thereof: and he called it by his own name, Nobe.
Nobach te ale pran Kenath avèk vil pa li yo, e li te rele li Nobach selon pwòp non pa li.
