Deuteronomy 31
1 Then Moses went and spake these wordes vnto all Israel,
Moyiz pale ankò ak tout pèp Izrayèl la, li di yo:
2 And said vnto them, I am an hundreth and twentie yeere olde this day: I can no more goe out and in: also the Lord hath saide vnto me, Thou shalt not goe ouer this Iorden.
-Koulye a, mwen gen sanventan sou tèt mwen. Mwen pa gen fòs pou m' fè anyen ankò. Lèfini, Seyè a te tou di m' mwen p'ap janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an.
3 The Lord thy God he will go ouer before thee: he will destroy these nations before thee, and thou shalt possesse them. Ioshua, he shall goe before thee, as the Lord hath said.
Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se li menm ki pral pran devan nou. L'ap detwi tout nasyon sa yo devan je nou pou nou ka pran peyi yo pou nou: Se Jozye ki va mache devan nou, jan Seyè a te di l' la.
4 And the Lord shall doe vnto them, as he did to Sihon and to Og Kings of the Amorites: and vnto their lande whome he destroyed.
Seyè a va detwi nasyon sa yo nèt, menm jan li te detwi Siyon ak Og, wa peyi Amori yo, ansanm ak tout moun nan peyi yo a nèt ale.
5 And the Lord shall giue them before you that ye may do vnto them according vnto euery commandement, which I haue comanded you.
Seyè a pral lage yo nan men nou. Lè sa a, se pou nou aji avèk yo jan Seyè a te ban nou lòd aji ak yo a.
6 Plucke vp your hearts therefore, and be strong: dread not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God him selfe doeth goe with thee: he will not faile thee, nor forsake thee.
Se pou nou vanyan. Se pou nou mete gason sou nou! Nou pa bezwen pè. Pa tranble lè yo parèt devan nou. Seyè a, Bondye nou an, kanpe la avèk nou. Li p'ap janm lage nou, li p'ap janm kite nou pou kont nou.
7 And Moses called Ioshua, and said vnto him in the sight of all Israel, Be of a good courage and strong: for thou shalt go with this people vnto the lande which the Lord hath sworne vnto their fathers, to giue them, and thou shalt giue it them to inherite.
Apre sa, Moyiz rele Jozye, li pale avè l' devan tout pèp Izrayèl la, li di l' konsa: -Mete gason sou ou! Se pou ou vanyan! Paske se ou menm ki pral alatèt pèp la pou l' antre pran peyi Seyè a te fè sèman l'ap bay zansèt yo a.
8 And the Lord him selfe doeth go before thee: he will be with thee: he will not faile thee, neither forsake thee: feare not therefore, nor be discomforted.
Seyè a va pran devan ou, l'a kanpe la avè ou. Li p'ap janm lage ou, li p'ap kite ou pou kont ou: Ou pa bezwen pè. Ou pa bezwen tranble.
9 And Moses wrote this Lawe, and deliuered it vnto the Priestes the sonnes of Leui (which bare the Arke of the couenant of the Lord) and vnto all the Elders of Israel,
Apre sa, Moyiz ekri tout lalwa a, epi li renmèt li bay prèt yo, moun fanmi Levi yo ki te reskonsab Bwat Kontra Seyè a, ansanm ak tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl la.
10 And Moses commanded them, saying, Euery seuenth yeere when the yeere of freedome shalbe in the feast of the Tabernacles:
Moyiz ba yo lòd sa a: -Chak sètan, lè lanne pou yo renmèt dèt yo va rive, pandan y'ap fete fèt Joupa yo.
11 When all Israel shall come to appeare before the Lord thy God, in the place which he shall chuse, thou shalt reade this Lawe before all Israel that they may heare it.
lè tout pèp Izrayèl la va vin adore Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nan kote li te chwazi pou sa a, n'a li tout liv lalwa a byen fò devan yo tout, pou yo ka tande l' nan zòrèy yo.
12 Gather the people together: men, and women, and children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may heare, and that they may learne, and feare the Lord your God, and keepe and obserue all the wordes of this Lawe,
N'a sanble tout moun, fanm kou gason, timoun kou granmoun, ansanm ak moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan lavil nou yo, pou yo ka tande l', pou yo ka aprann gen krentif pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou yo kenbe lalwa a, epi pou yo fè tou sa ki ladan l'.
13 And that their children which haue not knowen it, may heare it, and learne to feare the Lord your God, as long as ye liue in the lande, whither ye goe ouer Iorden to possesse it.
Se konsa, pitit yo ki pa t' janm konn lalwa a va tande l'. Y'a aprann gen krentif pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, chak jou pandan tout tan n'ap viv nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou an, lè n'a janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an.
14 Then the Lord saide vnto Moses, Beholde, thy dayes are come, that thou must die: Call Ioshua, and stande ye in the Tabernacle of the Congregation that I may giue him a charge. So Moses and Ioshua went, and stoode in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
Lè sa a, Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Ou pa lwen mouri. Rele Jozye. Vini ansanm avè l' nan Tant Randevou a pou m' ka ba li lòd sa pou l' fè. Se konsa, Moyiz ak Jozye al kanpe nan Tant Randevou a.
15 And the Lord appeared in the Tabernacle, in the pillar of a cloude: and the pillar of the cloude stoode ouer the doore of the Tabernacle.
Seyè a parèt devan yo anndan Tant Randevou a, nan yon nwaj ki te gen fòm yon gwo poto devan pòt tant lan.
16 And the Lord said vnto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleepe with thy fathers, and this people will rise vp, and goe a whoring after the gods of a strange land (whither they goe to dwell therein) and will forsake me, and breake my couenant which I haue made with them.
Seyè a di Moyiz: -Ou pral mouri. Ou pa lwen al jwenn zansèt ou yo ki mouri deja. Men, apre ou fin mouri, pèp la pral leve, yo pral vire do ban mwen pou y' al kouri dèyè lòt bondye y'ap sèvi nan peyi lòt nasyon kote nou pral antre a. Wi, yo pral lage m', yo pral kase kontra m' te pase avèk yo a.
17 Wherefore my wrath will waxe hote against them at that day, and I will forsake them, and will hide my face from them: then they shalbe consumed, and many aduersities and tribulations shall come vpon them: so then they will say, Are not these troubles come vpon me, because God is not with me?
Lè sa va rive, m'a fè yon sèl kòlè anwo yo, m'a lage yo tout, mwen p'ap okipe yo ankò. Se peri y'a peri. Tout kalite malè ak lafliksyon pral tonbe sou yo. Se lè sa a y'a blije rekonèt se paske Bondye yo a pa la nan mitan yo ankò kifè tout malè sa yo rive yo.
18 But I will surely hide my face in that day, because of all the euill, which they shall commit, in that they are turned vnto other gods.
Men malgre sa, mwen menm m'a refize ede yo paske yo te fè twòp bagay mal lè yo te al kouri dèyè lòt bondye.
19 Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach it the children of Israel: put it in their mouthes, that this song may be my witnesse against the children of Israel.
Koulye a, ekri chante sa a. W'a moutre tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo li, pou l' ka nan bouch yo tout, epi pou l' sa sèvi m' temwen kont yo.
20 For I will bring them into the land (which I sware vnto their fathers) that floweth with milke and honie, and they shall eate, and fil them selues, and waxe fat: then shall they turne vnto other gods, and serue them, and contemne me, and breake my couenant.
Lè m'ap fè yo antre nan peyi mwen te pwomèt bay zansèt yo a, peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl ap koule tankou dlo a, m'a fè yo manje plen vant yo, y'a viv alèz. Men, y'a kouri dèyè lòt bondye, y'a sèvi yo. Men mwen menm, y'a voye m' jete, y'a kraze kontra mwen te pase ak yo a.
21 And then when many aduersities and tribulations shall come vpon them, this song shall answere them to their face as a witnesse: for it shall not be forgotte out of the mouthes of their posteritie: for I knowe their imagination, which they goe about euen now, before I haue brought them into the lande which I sware.
Konsa, lè tout kalite malè ak lafliksyon va tonbe sou yo, chante sa a va sèvi m' temwen, l'ap toujou nan bouch yo, paske pitit yo p'ap janm bliye l'. Wi, depi koulye a, anvan menm mwen fè yo antre nan peyi mwen te pwomèt yo a, mwen konnen sa yo gen nan tèt yo.
22 Moses therefore wrote this song the same day and taught it the children of Israel.
Menm jou sa a, Moyiz ekri chante a epi li moutre tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo li.
23 And God gaue Ioshua the sonne of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong, and of a good courage: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the lande, which I sware vnto them, and I will be with thee.
Apre sa, Seyè a bay Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, lòd li yo. Li di l' konsa: -Mete gason sou ou. Se pou ou vanyan. Paske se ou menm ki pou fè moun pèp Izrayèl yo antre nan peyi mwen te pwomèt m'ap ba yo a. M'ap kanpe la avè ou.
24 And when Moses had made an ende of writing the wordes of this Lawe in a booke vntill he had finished them,
Lè Moyiz fin ekri tout pawòl lalwa Bondye a nan yon liv san li pa sote anyen,
25 Then Moses commanded the Leuites, which bare the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, saying,
li rele moun Levi ki te reskonsab pou pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, li di yo konsa:
26 Take the booke of this Lawe, and put ye it in the side of the Arke of the couenant of the Lord your God, that it may be there for a witnes against thee.
-Pran liv lalwa a, mete l' sou kote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, Bondye nou an. L'a rete la, l'a sèvi temwen kont nou.
27 For I knowe thy rebellion and thy stiffe necke: beholde, I being yet aliue with you this day, ye are rebellious against the Lord: howe much more then after my death?
Mwen konnen jan nou gen tèt di, jan nou pa vle koute. Si koulye a, pandan mwen vivan ankò nan mitan nou an, nou te kenbe tèt ak Seyè a konsa, lè m'a mouri menm se va pi rèd.
28 Gather vnto me all the Elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speake these wordes in their audience, and call heauen and earth to recorde against them.
Sanble bò kote m' tout chèf fanmi nou yo ak tout chèf branch fanmi nou yo pou m' fè yo tande pawòl sa yo. Mwen pral pran syèl la ak latè a sèvi m' temwen sa mwen pral di nou la a.
29 For I am sure that after my death ye will vtterly be corrupt and turne from the way, which I haue commanded you: therefore euill will come vpon you at the length, because ye will comit euill in the sight of the Lord, by prouoking him to anger through the worke of your hands.
Paske mwen konnen, lè m'a mouri, nou pral lage kò nou nan fè move bagay, nou pral kite chemen mwen te louvri devan nou an. Lè sa a, malè pral tonbe sou nou, paske nou te fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a, nou te eksite kòlè li avèk tout move bagay nou t'ap fè yo.
30 Thus Moses spake in the audience of all the congregation of Israel the wordes of this song, vntill he had ended them.
Lè sa a, Moyiz pran resite byen fò tout chante sa a, depi nan konmansman jouk li bout, devan tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo ki te reyini pou yo te ka tande sa l'ap di a.
