< Judges 12 >

1 And the me of Ephraim gathered themselues together, and went Northwarde, and saide vnto Iphtah, Wherefore wentest thou to fight against the children of Ammon, and diddest not call vs to goe with thee? we will therefore burne thine house vpon thee with fire.
Lè sa a, moun branch fanmi Efrayim yo reyini ansanm, yo janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden, y' al lavil Zafon. Yo di Jefte konsa: -Poukisa ou travèse al goumen ak moun Amon yo san ou pa rele nou ale avè ou? Se poutèt sa, nou pral boule kay ou a sou ou.
2 And Iphtah said vnto them, I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon, and when I called you, ye deliuered me not out of their handes.
Men Jefte di yo: -Moun pa m' yo ansanm avè m', nou te gen yon gwo kont ak moun Amon yo. Mwen te rele nou, men nou pa t' vle vin delivre m' anba men yo.
3 So when I sawe that ye deliuered me not, I put my life in mine hands, and went vpon the children of Ammon: so the Lord deliuered them into mine handes. Wherefore then are ye come vpon me nowe to fight against me?
Lè m' wè nou pa t' soti pou nou vin pote m' sekou, m' al riske vi m'. Mwen travèse al goumen ak moun Amon yo, epi Seyè a lage yo nan men m'. Poukisa pou koulye a nou moute jouk lakay mwen vin chache m' kont?
4 Then Iphtah gathered all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye Gileadites are runnagates of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, and among the Manassites.
Lè sa a menm, Jefte sanble tout gason ki nan peyi Galarad la, y' al goumen ak moun Efrayim yo. Yo bat yo byen bat. Moun Efrayim yo te konn joure moun Galarad yo. Yo te konn di: Moun Galarad yo, se yon bann trèt yo ye. Yo kite peyi yo, Efrayim, y' al rete nan peyi Manase a!
5 Also the Gileadites tooke the passages of Iorden before the Ephraimites, and when the Ephraimites that were escaped, saide, Let me passe, then the men of Gilead said vnto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay,
Apre sa, moun Galarad yo pran kontwole tout pas larivyè Jouden kote pou janbe ale nan peyi Efrayim. Chak fwa yonn nan moun Efrayim yo rive pou yo kouri janbe al nan peyi yo, li te blije mande yo pèmisyon. Lè konsa, moun Galarad yo mande l' èske se moun Efrayim li ye. Si li reponn non,
6 Then said they vnto him, Say nowe Shibboleth: and he said, Sibboleth: for he could not so pronounce: then they tooke him, and slewe him at the passages of Iorden: and there fel at that time of the Ephraimites two and fourtie thousand.
lè sa a yo mande l' pou l' di: Chibolèt. Men li di: Sibolèt paske li pa t' ka rive di l' jan yo di l' la. Lamenm yo mete men sou li, yo touye l' la nan pas la. Lè sa a, yo te touye karanndemil (42.000) moun nan branch fanmi Efrayim lan.
7 And Iphtah iudged Israel sixe yeere: then dyed Iphtah the Gileadite, and was buryed in one of the cities of Gilead.
Jefte, moun Galarad la, te gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la pandan sizan. Apre sa, li mouri, epi yo antere l' nan lavil kote li te fèt la nan peyi Galarad.
8 After him Ibzan of Beth-lehem iudged Israel,
Apre Jefte, se Ibzan, moun lavil Betleyèm, ki te gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
9 Who had thirtie sonnes and thirtie daughters, which he sent out, and tooke in thirtie daughters from abroade for his sonnes. and he iudged Israel seuen yeere.
Li te gen trant pitit gason ak trant pitit fi. Li marye trant pitit fi l' yo ak moun ki pa t' nan branch fanmi l' epi li fè chache jenn fi nan lòt branch fanmi pou pitit gason l' yo. Li gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la pandan sètan.
10 Then Ibzan died, and was buryed at Bethlehem.
Apre sa, Ibzan mouri, yo antere l' lavil Betleyèm.
11 And after him iudged Israel Elon, a Zebulonite, and he iudged Israel tenne yeere.
Apre li, se Elon, moun Zabilon an, ki te gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la pandan dizan.
12 Then Elon the Zebulonite dyed, and was buryed in Aijalon in the countrey of Zebulun.
Lè Elon, moun Zabilon an, mouri, yo antere l' lavil Ajalon nan peyi Zabilon.
13 And after him Abdon the sonne of Hillel the Pirathonite iudged Israel.
Apre li, se Abdon, pitit gason Ilèl, moun lavil Piraton, ki t'ap gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
14 And he had fourty sonnes and thirtie nephewes that rode on seuentie assecoltes: and he iudged Israel eight yeeres.
Li te gen karant pitit gason ak trant pitit pitit gason ki te konn moute sou swasanndis ti bourik. Li gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la pandan witan.
15 Then dyed Abdon the sonne of Hillel the Pirathonite, and was buryed in Pirathon, in ye lande of Ephraim, in the Mount of the Amalekites.
Lè Abdon, pitit gason Ilèl la, mouri, yo antere l' lavil Piraton nan peyi Efrayim, nan mòn moun Amalèk yo.
