< Exodus 19 >
1 In the third moneth, after the children of Israel were gone out of the lande of Egypt, the same day came they into the wildernes of Sinai.
Moun Izrayèl yo te gen de mwa depi yo te soti kite peyi Lejip la. Premye jou twazyèm mwa a, yo rive nan dezè Sinayi a.
2 For they departed from Rephidim, and came to the desart of Sinai, and camped in the wildernesse: euen there Israel camped before the mount.
Lè yo kite Refidim, yo rive nan dezè Sinayi a. Se la yo moute tant yo, anfas mòn lan.
3 But Moses went vp vnto God, for ye Lord had called out of the mount vnto him, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Iaakob, and tell the children of Israel,
Moyiz moute sou mòn lan, l' al bò kote Bondye. Seyè a rete sou tèt mòn lan, li rele Moyiz, li di l': -Men sa pou ou di moun fanmi Jakòb yo, men sa pou ou fè pèp Izrayèl la konnen:
4 Ye haue seene what I did vnto the Egyptians, and how I caryed you vpon eagles wings, and haue brought you vnto me.
Seyè a pale, li voye di nou konsa: Nou wè sa mwen te fè moun peyi Lejip yo. Nou wè ki jan mwen te pote nou tankou malfini pote pitit li yo sou do li, mwen fè nou vin jwenn mwen.
5 Now therefore if ye wil heare my voyce in deede, and keepe my couenant, then ye shalbe my chiefe treasure aboue all people, though all the earth be mine.
Koulye a menm, si nou koute sa mwen di nou, si nou kenbe kontra mwen an, se nou menm m'ap chwazi pou moun pa m' nan mitan tout pèp ki sou latè. Tout latè se pou mwen, se vre.
6 Yee shall be vnto mee also a kingdome of Priestes, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speake vnto the children of Israel.
Men nou menm, n'ap vini yon nasyon moun k'ap sèvi m' tankou prèt, yon pèp k'ap viv apa pou mwen. Wi, se sa pou ou di moun Izrayèl yo.
7 Moses then came and called for the Elders of the people, and proposed vnto them all these things, which the Lord commanded him.
Moyiz ale, li fè sanble tout chèf fanmi pèp la, li rapòte yo tou sa Seyè a te ba li lòd di yo.
8 And the people answered all together, and sayd, All that the Lord hath commanded, we will doe. And Moses reported the wordes of the people vnto the Lord.
Tout pèp la reponn ansanm, yo di: -N'a fè tou sa Seyè a di nou fè. Apre sa, Moyiz al rapòte bay Seyè a repons pèp la.
9 And the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Lo, I come vnto thee in a thicke cloude, that the people may heare, whiles I talke with thee, and that they may also beleeue thee for euer. (for Moses had tolde the wordes of the people vnto the Lord)
Seyè a di Moyiz: -M'ap vin jwenn ou nan yon gwo nwaj byen pwès. Konsa pèp la va tande lè m'ap pale avè ou, y'a toujou kwè nan ou. Moyiz rakonte Seyè a sa pèp la te reponn.
10 Moreouer, the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Goe to the people, and sanctifie them to day and to morow, and let them wash their clothes.
Seyè a di Moyiz: -Ale bò kote pèp la. Fè yo pran jounen jòdi a ak jounen denmen an pou yo mete yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou mwen. Se pou yo lave rad yo.
11 And let them be ready on the third day: for the thirde day the Lord will come downe in the sight of all the people vpon mount Sinai:
Se pou yo pare pou twazyèm jou a. Paske, sou twa jou mwen menm, Seyè a, m'ap desann sou mòn Sinayi a pou tout moun ka wè m'.
12 And thou shalt set markes vnto the people rounde about, saying, Take heede to your selues that ye goe not vp the mount, nor touche the border of it: whosoeuer toucheth the mount, shall surely die.
W'a mete yon limit toutalantou mòn lan pou pèp la pa depase. W'a avèti yo pou yo pa moute sou mòn lan, ni pou pesonn pa menm pwoche bò pye mòn lan. Nenpòt moun ki va mete pye sou mòn lan, se pou yo touye l'.
13 No hand shall touche it, but he shalbe stoned to death, or striken through with darts: whether it be beast or man, he shall not liue: when the horne bloweth long, they shall come vp into the mountaine.
y'a kalonnen l' kout ròch osinon y'a pèse l' ak kout flèch jouk li mouri, san pesonn p'ap bezwen manyen li ak men yo. Kit se yon moun, kit se yon bèt, se pou yo touye l'. Lè y'a tande kòn lan kònen, se lè sa a y'a moute sou mòn lan.
14 Then Moses went downe from ye mount vnto the people, and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes.
Moyiz desann soti sou mòn lan, l' al bò kote pèp la. Li fè yo mete tèt yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Seyè a. Yo lave rad yo.
15 And he said vnto the people, Be ready on the third day, and come not at your wiues.
Apre sa, Moyiz di yo: -Pare nou pou apre denmen. Pa kouche ak ankenn fanm.
16 And the thirde day, when it was morning, there was thunders and lightnings, and a thicke cloude vpon the mount, and the sounde of the trumpet exceeding loude, so that all the people, that was in the campe, was afrayde.
Sou twazyèm jou a vre, nan granmaten, loraj t'ap gwonde sou mòn lan. Te gen zèklè ak yon gwo nwaj byen pwès sou mòn lan tou. Yon twonpèt t'ap kònen byen fò. Tout moun t'ap tranble kou fèy bwa kote yo te ye a, sitèlman yo te pè.
17 Then Moses brought the people out of the tents to meete with God, and they stoode in the nether part of the mount.
Moyiz fè pèp la soti kote yo te moute tant yo a pou y al kontre Bondye. Yo rete nan pye mòn lan.
18 And mount Sinai was all on smoke, because the Lord came downe vpon it in fire, and the smoke therof ascended, as the smoke of a fornace, and all the mount trembled exceedingly.
Tout mòn Sinayi a te kouvri nèt ak lafimen, paske Seyè a te desann sou li nan mitan yon gwo dife. Lafimen t'ap moute tankou nan yon fou lacho. Tout mòn lan t'ap tranble avèk fòs.
19 And when the sound of the trumpet blew long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by voyce.
Twonpèt la t'ap kònen pi fò toujou. Moyiz t'ap pale, Bondye t'ap reponn li byen fò avèk yon bri ou ta di yon bri loraj.
20 (For the Lord came downe vpon mount Sinai on the toppe of the mount) and when the Lord called Moses vp into the top of the mount, Moses went vp.
Seyè a desann sou mòn Sinayi a, sou tèt mòn lan menm. Li rele Moyiz sou tèt mòn lan. Moyiz moute al jwenn li.
21 Then the Lord said vnto Moses, Go down, charge the people, that they breake not their boundes, to go vp to the Lord to gaze, least many of them perish.
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Desann, avèti pèp la pou yo pa depase limit la, paske yo ka pran kouri vin gade mwen. Lè sa a, anpil ladan yo ta kapab mouri.
22 And let the Priestes also which come to the Lord be sanctified, least the Lord destroy them.
Ata prèt yo ki ka pwoche bò kote m', se pou yo mete tèt yo nan kondisyon pou sa tou. Si se pa sa, mwen ka touye yo.
23 And Moses sayde vnto the Lord, The people can not come vp into the mount Sinai: for thou hast charged vs, saying, Set markes on the mountaine, and sanctifie it.
Moyiz di Seyè a: -Pèp la p'ap kapab moute sou mòn Sinayi a, paske se ou menm ki defann yo moute, lè ou te di: Trase yon limit toutalantou mòn lan, mete l' apa pou mwen.
24 And the Lord sayd vnto him, Go, get thee downe, and come vp, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the Priestes and the people breake their boundes to come vp vnto the Lord, least he destroy them.
Lè sa a Seyè a di Moyiz: -Desann non. Epi tounen ansanm ak Arawon. Men pa kite prèt yo ak pèp la depase limit ou te ba yo a pou yo kouri vin kote m'. Si yo fè sa, m'ap touye yo.
25 So Moses went downe vnto the people, and tolde them.
Moyiz desann bò kote pèp la, li di yo tout bagay.
