Genesis 38
1 And at that time Iudah went downe from his brethren, and turned in to a man called Hirah an Adullamite.
Epi li te vin rive nan lè sa a ke Judas te kite frè l yo, pou te vizite yon sèten Adilamit ki te rele Hira.
2 And Iudah sawe there the daughter of a man called Suah a Canaanite: and he tooke her to wife, and went in vnto her.
La, Juda te wè fi a yon sèten Kananeyen ki te rele Schua. Li te pran li e te antre an relasyon ak li.
3 So she conceiued and bare a sonne, and he called his name Er.
Konsa, li te vin ansent, li te fè yon fis, e li te nonmen li Er.
4 And she conceiued againe, and bare a sonne, and she called his name Onan.
Epi li te vin ansent ankò, li te bay yon fis, ki te nonmen Onan.
5 Moreouer she bare yet a sonne, whome she called Shelah: and Iudah was at Chezib when she bare him.
Li te fè toujou yon lòt fis, e li te nonmen li Schéla. Li te nan Czib lè li te fè li.
6 Then Iudah tooke a wife to Er his first borne sonne whose name was Tamar.
Alò, Juda te pran yon madanm pou Er, premye ne li a, e non li te Tamar.
7 Now Er the first borne of Iudah was wicked in the sight of the Lord: therefore the Lord slewe him.
Men Er, premye ne a Juda a te mechan nan zye a SENYÈ a e SENYÈ a te pran vi li.
8 Then Iudah said to Onan, Goe in vnto thy brothers wife, and do the office of a kinsman vnto her, and raise vp seede vnto thy brother.
Konsa, Juda te di a Onan: “Antre an relasyon ak madanm a frè ou a; fè devwa ou kòm bòfrè li, e fè leve yon posterite pou frè ou.”
9 And Onan knewe that the seede should not be his: therefore when he went in vnto his brothers wife, he spilled it on the grounde, least he should giue seede vnto his brother.
Onan te konnen ke posterite sa yo pa t ap pou li. Konsa, li te jete jèm li an atè pou li pa fè pitit pou frè li.
10 And it was wicked in the eyes of the Lord, which he did: wherefore he slewe him also.
Men sa li te fè a pa t fè SENYÈ a plezi. Li te pran vi li tou.
11 Then said Iudah to Tamar his daughter in lawe, Remaine a widowe in thy fathers house, till Shelah my sonne growe vp (for he thought thus, Least he die as well as his brethren.) So Tamar went and dwelt in her fathers house.
Alò Juda te di a bofi li, Tamar: “Rete kòm vèv lakay papa ou jiskaske fis mwen an, Schéla fin grandi.” Paske li te reflechi: “Mwen pè pou li menm tou pa ta kapab mouri menm jan ak frè li yo.” Epi Tamar te ale viv lakay papa li.
12 And in processe of time also the daughter of Shuah Iudahs wife dyed. Then Iudah, when he had left mourning, went vp to his sheepe sherers to Timnah, he, and his neighbour Hirah the Adullamite.
Alò, apre yon tan konsiderab, fi Schua a, madanm a Juda, te mouri. Epi lè tan tristès alanmò a te fini, Juda te monte vè ouvriye ki t ap taye lenn mouton bò kote Thimna yo, li menm avèk zanmi li, Hira, Adilamit lan.
13 And it was tolde Tamar, saying, beholde, thy father in lawe goeth vp to Timnah, to shere his sheepe.
Konsa, yo te di a Tamar: “Veye byen, bòpè ou ap monte vè Thimna pou taye lenn mouton li yo.”
14 Then she put her widowes garments off from her, and couered her with a vaile, and wrapped her selfe, and sate downe in Pethah-enaim, which is by the way to Timnah, because she sawe that Shelah was growen, and she was not giuen vnto him to wife.
Alò, li te retire vètman vèv li a, li te kouvri tèt li avèk yon vwal, li te vlope tèt li, e li te chita nan pòtay Énaïm nan, ki nan wout pou rive Thimna. Paske li te wè ke Shéla te fin grandi, e yo pa t vin prezante li devan li kòm madanm.
15 When Iudah sawe her, he iudged her an whore: for she had couered her face.
Lè Juda te wè l, li te panse ke li te yon pwostitiye, paske li te kouvri figi li.
16 And he turned to the way towardes her, and saide, Come, I pray thee, let me lie with thee. (for he knewe not that she was his daughter in lawe) And she answered, What wilt thou giue me for to lie with me?
Konsa, li te vire bò kote li nan wout la, e li te di: “Alò, kite m antre an relasyon ak ou.” Paske li pa t konnen ke li te bèlfi li. Epi fi a te di: “Kisa w ap ban m pou ou ka antre an relasyon ak mwen?”
17 Then said he, I will sende thee a kid of the goates from the flocke. and she said, Well, if thou wilt giue me a pledge, till thou sende it.
Li te di konsa: “Mwen va voye ba ou yon jèn kabrit ki sòti nan twoupo a.” Men li te di: “Èske ou va ban m yon bagay kòm yon sèman pou jis lè ou voye l?”
18 Then he saide, What is the pledge that I shall giue thee? And she answered, Thy signet, and thy cloke, and thy staffe that is in thine hande. So he gaue it her, and lay by her, and she was with childe by him.
Li te di: “Kisa pou m ta bay ou?” Epi li te di: “Ban m so, kòd avèk baton ki nan men ou an.” Konsa, li te bay yo a li menm. Li te antre an relasyon ak li, e vèv la te vin ansent pa li menm.
19 Then she rose, and went and put her vaile from her and put on her widowes raiment.
Tamar te leve ale. Li te retire vwal la, e li te remete vètman a vèv yo.
20 Afterwarde Iudah sent a kid of the goates by the hande of his neighbour the Adullamite, for to receiue his pledge from the womans hand: but he found her not.
Lè Juda te voye jèn kabrit la ak zanmi li, Adilamit lan, pou resevwa sa ke li te bay kòm sèman an, li pa t twouve li.
21 Then asked he the men of that place, saying, Where is ye whore, that sate in Enaim by the way side? And they answered, There was no whore here.
Li te mande mesye yo kote a: “Kote jennès tanp lan ki te akote wout la nan Énaïm nan?” Men yo te di li: “Pa t gen jennès tanp isit la.”
22 He came therefore to Iudah againe, and said, I can not finde her, and also the men of the place said, There was no whore there.
Li te retounen a Juda, e te di: “Mwen pa t twouve li. Anplis de sa, mesye nan zòn di ke: ‘Pa t gen yon jennès tanp nan zòn sa a.’”
23 Then Iudah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be shamed: beholde, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.
Juda te di l: “Kite li pran yo pou kont li, sinon n ap vin yon betiz devan tout moun. Anfen, mwen te voye jèn kabrit sa a, men ou pa t twouve li.”
24 Now after three moneths, one tolde Iudah, saying, Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the whore, and lo, with playing the whore, she is great with childe. Then Iudah saide, Bring ye her foorth and let her be burnt.
Alò, li te anviwon twa mwa pita ke Juda te enfòme: “Bèlfi ou Tamar te jwe wòl jennès la. Gade byen, li vin ansent nan koze sa a.” Konsa, Juda te di: “Mete li deyò e kite yo brile li.”
25 When she was brought foorth, she sent to her father in law, saying, By the man, vnto whom these things pertaine, am I with childe: and saide also, Looke, I pray thee, whose these are, the seale, and the cloke, and the staffe.
Epi pandan yo t ap mete li deyò, li te voye kote bòpè li pou di: “Mwen avèk pitit pa mesye ki se mèt a bagay sa yo.” Anplis, li te di: “Souple, fè yon ankèt pou vin aprann pou kilès so siyal sila a ye, e pou kilès kòd avèk baton sila yo ye?”
26 Then Iudah knewe them, and said, She is more righteous then I: for she hath done it because I gaue her not to Shelah my sonne. So he lay with her no more.
Juda te rekonèt yo, e te di: “Li pi jis pase mwen, paske mwen pa t bay li fis mwen an, Schéla.” Epi li pa t gen relasyon avèk li ankò.
27 Now, when the time was come that she should be deliuered, beholde, there were twinnes in her wombe.
Li te vin rive nan lè ke li t ap akouche a, gade byen, te gen jimo nan vant li.
28 And when she was in trauell, the one put out his hand: and the midwife tooke and bound a red threde about his hand, saying, This is come out first.
Anplis de sa, li te rive pandan li t ap akouche a ke youn te lonje yon men deyò, e fanm saj la te mare yon fisèl wouj sou men l. Li te di: “Se sila a ki sòti avan”.
29 But when he plucked his hand backe againe, loe, his brother came out, and the midwife said, How hast thou broken the breach vpon thee? and his name was called Pharez.
Men li te vin rive ke pandan li t ap rale men l tounen, frè l la te sòti avan. Epi li te di: “A la chemen ou gen tan fè pou kont ou!” Konsa, li te nonmen li Pérets.
30 And afterward came out his brother that had the red threde about his hande, and his name was called Zarah.
Apre, frè l la te vin sòti avèk fisèl wouj mare nan men l, e li te nonmen li Zerah.
