< Deuteronomy 32 >

1 Hearken, ye heauens, and I will speake: and let the earth heare the words of my mouth.
Ou menm syèl, tande sa mwen pral di la a! Koute byen, ou menm latè, pawòl ki pral soti nan bouch mwen!
2 My doctrine shall drop as the raine, and my speach shall stil as the dew, as the showre vpon the herbes, and as the great raine vpon the grasse.
Sa m'ap di a pral tonbe tankou grenn lapli! Pawòl mwen yo pral tankou lawouze k'ap tonbe sou latè. Pawòl nan bouch mwen pral tankou bèl lapli k'ap tonbe sou jenn plant yo, tankou yon ti lapli nò k'ap tonbe sou zèb gazon.
3 For I will publish the name of the Lord: giue ye glorie vnto our God.
Mwen pral fè lwanj Seyè a! Rekonèt jan Bondye nou an gen pouvwa!
4 Perfect is the worke of the mighty God: for all his wayes are iudgement. God is true, and without wickednesse: iust, and righteous is he.
Se Seyè a k'ap pwoteje nou. Tou sa li fè bon nèt. Li pa nan patipri nan anyen l'ap fè. Bondye nou an ap toujou kenbe pawòl li Li pa nan bay manti. Li fè sa ki dwat, li pa fè ankenn lenjistis.
5 They haue corrupted them selues towarde him by their vice, not being his children, but a frowarde and crooked generation.
Se yo menm, pèp li a, ki pa kenbe pawòl yo, bagay yon bon pitit Bondye pa ta janm fè. Se yon bann mechan k'ap mache twonpe moun.
6 Doe ye so rewarde the Lord, O foolish people and vnwise? is not he thy father, that hath bought thee? he hath made thee, and proportioned thee.
Se konsa nou di Seyè a mèsi pou sa l' fè pou nou, bann moun fou san konprann? Se pa li ki papa nou? Se pa li ki kreye nou? Se pa li ki fè nou sa nou ye a? Se pa li ki ban nou lavi?
7 Remember the dayes of olde: consider the yeeres of so many generations: aske thy father, and he will shewe thee: thine Elders, and they will tell thee.
Chonje tan lontan! Repase tèt nou sou tan lontan! Mande papa nou pou li di nou sak te pase. Mande granmoun lontan yo rakonte nou istwa tan lontan.
8 When the most hie God deuided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sonnes of Adam, he appoynted the borders of the people, according to the nomber of the children of Israel.
Lè Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la t'ap bay chak nasyon pòsyon ki pou yo, lè li t'ap bay kote pou chak moun rete sou latè, li fikse fwontyè tout peyi dapre kantite moun li te mete sou latè.
9 For the Lordes portion is his people: Iaakob is the lot of his inheritance.
Men, li chwazi pitit Jakòb yo pou li. Se yo ki pèp pa l' la menm.
10 He found him in ye land of ye wildernes, in a waste, and roaring wildernes: he led him about, he taught him, and kept him as ye apple of his eye.
Li te jwenn yo nan dezè a, kote moun pa rete, kote van an ap soufle san rete. Li pran yo nan bra l', li pran swen yo, li pwoteje yo tankou de grenn je nan tèt li.
11 As an eagle stereth vp her nest, flootereth ouer her birdes, stretcheth out her wings, taketh them, and beareth them on her wings,
Tankou malfini k'ap moutre pitit li vole, Seyè a ap plane anwo pitit li yo. Li louvri zèl li yo pou li ka pran swen yo, li pote yo sou do l' pou yo pa tonbe.
12 So the Lord alone led him, and there was no strange god with him.
Seyè a sèl chèf yo. Li pa bezwen lòt bondye pou ede l'.
13 He caryed him vp to the hie places of the earth, that he might eate the fruites of the fieldes, and he caused him to sucke hony out of the stone, and oyle out of the hard rocke:
Li fè yo mache an grannèg sou tèt mòn peyi a. Li fè yo manje grenn bwa nan savann. Yo jwenn siwo myèl nan tou wòch pou yo bwè. Pye oliv yo donnen nan wòch karyann.
14 Butter of kine, and milke of sheepe with fat of the lambes, and rammes fed in Bashan, and goates, with the fat of the graines of wheat, and the red licour of the grape hast thou drunke.
Bèf yo ak mouton yo ap bay lèt an kantite. Y'a manje vyann mouton gra, vyann belye Bazan ak vyann bouk kabrit. Y'a manje pi bon kalite farin frans, y'a bwè ji rezen pou diven.
15 But he that should haue bene vpright, when he waxed fat, spurned with his heele: thou art fat, thou art grosse, thou art laden with fatnes: therefore he forsooke God that made him, and regarded not the strong God of his saluation.
Pitit Jakòb yo manje plen vant yo! Yo vin gra, y'ap pete nan po yo, yo konmanse voye pye. Yo voye Bondye ki te fè yo a jete. Yo vire do bay Bondye ki t'ap pwoteje yo a, Bondye ki te delivre yo a.
16 They prouoked him with strange gods: they prouoked him to anger with abominations.
Y' al adore bondye lòt nasyon. Yo fè Seyè a fè jalouzi, y' al fè sa ki mal, yo fè l' fè kòlè.
17 They offred vnto deuils, not to God, but to gods whome they knew not: new gods that came newly vp, whome their fathers feared not.
Y' al ofri bèt pou yo touye bay zidòl ki pa bondye tout bon, yon kalite bondye yo pa t' janm konnen anvan, lòt bondye ki fèk parèt, bondye zansèt yo pa t' janm gen krentif.
18 Thou hast forgotten the mightie God that begate thee, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
Yo bliye Bondye ki te pwoteje yo, Bondye ki papa yo a. Yo pa chonje Bondye ki te fè yo, Bondye ki te ba yo lavi a.
19 The Lord then sawe it, and was angrie, for the prouocation of his sonnes and of his daughters.
Lè Seyè a wè sa, li fache. Li fè kòlè sou pitit gason l' yo ak sou pitit fi l' yo!
20 And he said, I will hide my face from the: I will see what their ende shalbe: for they are a frowarde generation, children in who is no faith.
Li di: mwen pral vire do m' ba yo. M'a wè sa ki pral rive yo. Se yon bann moun ki plen vis, yon bann pitit ou pa ka fin fye nèt.
21 They haue moued me to ielousie with that which is not God: they haue prouoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will moue them to ielousie with those which are no people: I wil prouoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
Yo fè m' fè jalouzi, y' al adore yon bondye ki pa bondye tout bon. Yo fè m' fè kòlè, y' al fè sèvis pou zidòl ki pa vo anyen. Enben, mwen menm, mwen pral fè yo fè jalouzi pou yon pèp ki pa menm yon pèp. M'ap fè yo fè kòlè pou yon nasyon moun ki san konprann.
22 For fire is kindled in my wrath, and shall burne vnto the bottome of hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountaines. (Sheol h7585)
Lè m' an kòlè, se tankou yon gwo dife k'ap flanbe. Mwen boule tou sa ki sou latè. Mwen desann byen fon kote mò yo ye anba tè a. M'ap mete dife jouk nan rasin mòn yo. (Sheol h7585)
23 I will spend plagues vpon them: I will bestowe mine arrowes vpon them.
M'ap fè yon seri malè tonbe sou yo. M'ap voye tout flèch mwen yo sou yo.
24 They shalbe burnt with hunger, and consumed with heate, and with bitter destruction: I will also sende the teeth of beastes vpon them, with the venime of serpents creeping in the dust.
Y'a mouri grangou. Lafyèb va fini ak yo. Move maladi va minen yo. M'a voye bèt nan bwa atake yo. M'a voye sèpan ak pwazon venen pou touye yo.
25 The sworde shall kill them without, and in the chambers feare: both the yong man and the yong woman, the suckeling with the man of gray heare.
Nan lari, y'a touye pitit pitit gason yo nan goumen. Moun ki anndan kay va sitèlman pè, kè yo va rete. Jenn gason ak jenn fi va mouri menm jan an tou. Depi timoun nan tete jouk granmoun cheve blan, pesonn p'ap chape.
26 I haue said, I would scatter them abroade: I would make their remembrance to cease from among men,
Mwen te di mwen tapral detwi yo nèt, pou pesonn pa janm chonje yo ankò sou latè.
27 Saue that I feared the furie of the enemie, least their aduersaries should waxe proude, and least they should say, Our hie hande and not the Lord hath done all this:
Men, mwen pa ta vle kite lènmi yo pran pye sou yo. Mwen pa ta renmen pou moun ki pa vle wè m' yo mete nan tèt yo se yo menm ak fòs kouraj yo ki fè sa, pou yo pa di: Seyè a pa gen anyen pou l' wè nan sa.
28 For they are a nation voide of counsel, neither is there any vnderstanding in them.
Pèp Izrayèl la, se yon pèp ki pèdi bonnanj yo. Yo pa gen konprann.
29 Oh that they were wise, then they would vnderstand this: they would consider their latter ende.
Si yo te gen konprann, yo ta louvri je yo, yo ta wè sa ki pral rive yo.
30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousande to flight, except their strong God had sold the, and the Lord had shut them vp?
Kouman ou ta vle pou yon sèl grenn lènmi fè mil ladan yo kouri, pou de grenn lènmi fè dimil ladan yo kraze rak? Se sèlman paske Seyè a lage yo, paske moun ki te konn pwoteje yo a vire do ba yo.
31 For their god is not as our God, euen our enemies being iudges.
Lènmi yo konn byen pwòp bondye k'ap pwoteje yo a pa ka parèt devan Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the vines of Gomorah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters be bitter.
Ou ta di se menm ras moun Sodòm ak Gomò yo ye. Yo tankou pye rezen k'ap donnen rezen anmè, rezen ki plen pwazon.
33 Their wine is the poyson of dragons, and the cruel gall of aspes.
Diven yo tankou pwazon nan bouch sèpan, venen nan bouch sèpan aspik k'ap touye moun frèt.
34 Is not this laide in store with me, and sealed vp among my treasures?
Seyè a konnen tou sa lènmi te fè pèp la. L'ap tann lè a rive pou l' pini yo.
35 Vengeance and recompence are mine: their foote shall slide in due time: for the day of their destruction is at hand, and the things that shall come vpon them, make haste.
Se Seyè a k'ap tire revanj sou yo, se li k'ap fè yo peye sa yo fè a, lè lè a va rive pou yo tonbe. Jou pou yo detwi yo a pa lwen. Sa ki pare pou yo a fin rive.
36 For the Lord shall iudge his people, and repent towarde his seruants, when hee seeth that their power is gone, and none shut vp in holde nor left abroad.
Seyè a pral pran defans pèp li a, lè l'a wè tout fòs yo fin desann. Li pral gen pitye pou sèvitè l' yo, lè l'a wè pa gen anpil ankò ki rete, ni anndan peyi a, ni deyò.
37 When men shall say, Where are their gods, their mighty God in whome they trusted,
Lè sa a, Seyè a va mande: -Kote bondye yo a, sa ki te konn pwoteje yo a? bondye yo te konn al jwenn pou pran defans yo a?
38 Which did eate the fat of their sacrifices, and did drinke the wine of their drinke offring? let them rise vp, and help you: let him be your refuge.
Se pa yo ki te konn manje grès bèt nou te konn ofri yo? Se pa yo ki te konn bwè diven nou te konn vide sou lòtèl yo? Se pou yo vin koulye a, se pou yo vin delivre nou! Se pou yo kouri vin pwoteje nou!
39 Behold now, for I, I am he, and there is no gods with me: I kill, and giue life: I wound, and I make whole: neither is there any that can deliuer out of mine hand.
Se mwen menm, mwen menm sèl ki Bondye. Pa gen lòt bondye pase mwen menm. Mwen bay lavi, mwen pran lavi jan m' vle. Lè mwen bay maladi, se mwen ki pou bay gerizon. Pa gen moun ki ka delivre pesonn anba men mwen.
40 For I lift vp mine hand to heauen, and say, I liue for euer.
Men m'ap leve men m' anlè, mwen fè sèman: Menm jan nou wè m' vivan pou tout tan an,
41 If I whet my glittering sworde, and mine hand take holde on iudgement, I will execute vengeance on mine enemies, and will rewarde them that hate me.
lè m'a file bèl nepe klere mwen an, lè m'a soti pou m' rann jistis, m'a tire revanj mwen sou lènmi m' yo, m'a bay moun ki pa vle wè m' yo sa yo merite.
42 I will make mine arrowes drunke with blood, (and my sword shall eate flesh) for the blood of the slaine, and of the captiues, when I beginne to take vengeance of the enemie.
Flèch mwen yo pral tranpe nan san, nan san moun blese yo ak san prizonye yo. Nepe mwen ap koupe moun san gad dèyè, l'ap koupe tèt tout chèf lènmi yo.
43 Ye nations, praise his people: for he will auenge the blood of his seruants, and will execute vengeance vpon his aduersaries, and will bee mercifull vnto his lande, and to his people.
Nou menm nasyon ki sou latè, fè kè nou kontan ak pèp Bondye chwazi a! Paske Seyè a pral tire revanj pou lanmò sèvitè l' yo. L'a bay moun ki pa vle wè l' yo sa yo merite. L'a wete tout vye bagay ki t'ap fèt nan peyi pèp li a.
44 Then Moses came and spake all ye words of this song in the audience of the people, he and Hoshea the sonne of Nun.
Moyiz ak Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, te repete tout pawòl chante sa a byen fò pou tout pèp la te tande.
45 When Moses had made an end of speaking all these wordes to all Israel,
Lè Moyiz fin bay pèp Izrayèl la tout pawòl sa yo,
46 Then hee said vnto them, Set your heartes vnto all the wordes which I testifie against you this day, that ye may commande them vnto your children, that they may obserue and doo all the wordes of this Lawe.
li di yo konsa: -Se pou nou koute tout kòmandman m'ap ban nou jòdi a. Y'a sèvi m' temwen mwen te fè nou konnen yo. Nou menm, n'a pase pitit nou yo lòd pou yo kenbe yo, pou yo swiv tout pawòl ki nan lalwa Bondye a.
47 For it is no vaine worde concerning you, but it is your life, and by this worde ye shall prolong your dayes in the land, whither yee go ouer Iorden to possesse it.
Paske, se pa pawòl nou ka pran konsa konsa. Se lavi yo ye pou nou. Se yo menm k'ap fè nou viv lontan nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou an, lè n'a fin janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an.
48 And the Lord spake vnto Moses the selfe same day, saying,
Menm jou sa a, Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
49 Goe vp into the mountaine of Abarim, vnto the mount Nebo, which is in the lande of Moab, that is ouer against Iericho: and beholde the lande of Canaan, which I giue vnto the children of Israel for a possession,
-Ale nan chenn mòn Abarim yo, ki nan peyi Moab anfas lavil Jeriko a. Moute sou mòn Nebo. Antan ou la, w'a voye je ou, w'a gade, w'a wè peyi Kanaran an, peyi mwen pral bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo pou yo rete a.
50 And die in the mount which thou goest vp vnto, and thou shalt be gathered vnto thy people, as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered vnto his people,
Ou pral mouri sou mòn kote ou pral moute a, ou pral jwenn moun pa ou yo ki deja mouri, menm jan sa te rive Arawon, frè ou la, ki te mouri sou mòn Or la, epi ki te al jwenn moun pa l' yo ki deja mouri.
51 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel, at the waters of Meribah, at Kadesh in the wildernesse of Zin: for ye sanctified me not among the children of Israel.
Nou tou de, nou pa t' fè sa m' te di nou fè devan pèp Izrayèl la, lè yo te bò sous dlo Meriba yo, bò lavil Kadès, nan dezè Zin lan. Nou te manke m' respe devan tout pèp Izrayèl la.
52 Thou shalt therefore see the lande before thee, but shalt not go thither, I meane, into the land which I giue the children of Israel.
Se poutèt sa, w'a rete byen lwen, w'a wè peyi mwen pral bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo anba nan pye ou. Men ou menm, ou p'ap mete pye ou ladan l'.
