Judges 3
1 These nowe are the nations which the Lord left, that he might proue Israel by them (euen as many of Israel as had not knowen all the warres of Canaan,
Seyè a te kite kèk nasyon nan peyi a pou l' te ka sonde moun pèp Izrayèl la ki patko fèt lè yo t'ap fè lagè pou antre nan peyi Kanaran an.
2 Only to make the generations of the children of Israel to know, and to teach them warre, which doutles their predecessors knew not)
Li te fè sa konsa pou l' te ka moutre chak jenerasyon pèp Izrayèl la sa yo rele fè lagè, sitou sa ki pa t' janm al nan lagè anvan sa.
3 Fiue princes of the Philistims, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hiuites that dwelt in mount Lebanon, from mount Baal-hermon vntill one come to Hamath.
Men moun li te kite nan peyi a: Se te moun Filisti yo ki te rete nan senk lavil, tout moun Kanaran yo, moun Sidon yo ak moun Evi yo ki te rete nan mòn Liban yo, depi mòn Baal-Emon jouk Pas Amat.
4 And these remayned to proue Israel by them, to wit, whether they would obey the commandements of the Lord, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
Se ak moun sa yo Seyè a t'ap sonde pèp la pou l' te ka konnen si yo te soti pou koute lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz pou zansèt yo a.
5 And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hiuites, and the Iebusites,
Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la twouve l' rete ap viv nan mitan moun Kanaran yo, moun Et yo, moun Amori yo, moun Ferezi yo, moun Evi yo ak moun Jebis yo.
6 And they tooke their daughters to bee their wiues, and gaue their daughters to their sonnes, and serued their gods.
Yo pran pitit fi moun sa yo pou madanm, yo bay pitit gason moun sa yo pitit fi pa yo pou madanm, epi yo pran sèvi bondye moun sa yo tou.
7 So the children of Israel did wickedly in the sight of the Lord, and forgate the Lord their God, and serued Baalim, and Asheroth.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo tanmen fè bagay ki te mal nan je Seyè a. Yo bliye Seyè a, Bondye-yo a, yo pran fè sèvis pou Baal yo ak Achera yo.
8 Therefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he solde them into the hand of Chushan rishathaim King of Aram-naharaim, and the children of Israel serued Chushan rishathaim eyght yeeres.
Seyè a fache sou pèp Izrayèl la epi li kite Kouchan-Riche Atayim, wa peyi Mezopotami an, mete pye sou kou yo. Pandan witan pèp Izrayèl la te anba men Kouchan-Riche Atayim.
9 And when the children of Israel cryed vnto the Lord, the Lord stirred vp a sauiour to ye children of Israel, and he saued them, euen Othniel the sonne of Kenaz, Calebs yonger brother.
Apre sa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo pran kriye nan pye Seyè a. Seyè a voye yon nonm pou delivre yo. Se te Otonyèl, pitit gason Kenaz, ki te ti frè Kalèb.
10 And the spirite of the Lord came vpon him, and he iudged Israel, and went out to warre: and the Lord deliuered Chushan rishathaim king of Aram into his hand, and his hand preuailed against Chushan rishathaim.
Lespri Seyè a te sou li, li vin yon gwo chèf nan peyi Izrayèl. Li leve l' al goumen. Seyè a lage Kouchan-Riche Atayim, wa peyi Mezopotami an, nan men li, li fè l' kraze l'.
11 So the lande had rest fourtie yeeres, and Othniel the sonne of Kenaz dyed.
Apre sa, te gen lapè nan peyi a pandan karantan. Epi Otonyèl, pitit gason Kenaz la, mouri.
12 Then the children of Israel againe committed wickednesse in the sight of the Lord: and the Lord strengthened Eglon King of Moab against Israel, because they had committed wickednesse before the Lord.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo te rekonmanse ap fè sa ki te mal nan je Seyè a ankò. Seyè a pran Eglon, wa peyi Moab la, li fè l' vin pi fò pase pèp Izrayèl la. Epi li fè l' leve dèyè pèp Izrayèl la.
13 And he gathered vnto him the children of Ammon, and Amalek, and went and smote Israel, and they possessed the citie of palme trees.
Eglon pran moun Amon yo ak moun Amalèk yo ansanm avè l', epi yo ale, yo bat moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Yo pran lavil Palmis yo pou yo.
14 So the children of Israel serued Eglon king of Moab eighteene yeeres.
Pandan dizwitan pèp Izrayèl la te anba men Eglon, wa peyi Moab la.
15 But when the children of Israel cried vnto the Lord, the Lord stirred them vp a sauiour, Ehud the sonne of Gera the sonne of Iemini, a man lame of his right hande: and the children of Israel sent a present by him vnto Eglon King of Moab.
Apre sa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo pran kriye nan pye Seyè a. Seyè a voye yon lòt moun pou delivre yo. Se te Eyoud, pitit gason Gera, moun branch fanmi Benjamen an. Msye te goche. Moun pèp Izrayèl yo bay Eyoud yon kado al pote bay Eglon, wa peyi Moab.
16 And Ehud made him a dagger with two edges of a cubite length, and he did gird it vnder his rayment vpon his right thigh,
Eyoud fè yo fè yon ponya espesyal pou li. Ponya a te gen yon pye edmi longè, li te file de bò. Li mare l' sou kwis pye dwat li, anba rad li.
17 And he presented ye gift vnto Eglon King of Moab (and Eglon was a very fat man)
Epi li pote kado a bay Eglon, wa peyi Moab la. Eglon te gwo anpil.
18 And when he had now presented the present, he sent away the people that bare ye present,
Lè Eyoud fin bay wa a kado a, li voye moun ki te pote kado a ale.
19 But he turned againe from the quarris, that were by Gilgal, and said, I haue a secret errand vnto thee, O King. Who said, Keepe silence: and all that stoode about him, went out from him.
Men li menm, lè li rive bò estati zidòl yo ki toupre lavil Gilgal la, li tounen vin jwenn Eglon. Li di l' konsa: -Monwa, mwen gen yon komisyon pou ou, men fòk pa ta gen lòt moun la. Lè sa a, wa a di moun ki te la yo: -Kite nou pou kont nou! Tout moun ki te la avè l' yo soti.
20 Then Ehud came vnto him. (and he sate alone in a sommer parler, which he had) and Ehud said, I haue a message vnto thee from God. Then he arose out of his throne,
Wa a te chita nan chanm pa l' anwo kay la, kote ki te fè fre anpil. Eyoud pwoche bò kote l', li di l' konsa: -Se yon mesaj Bondye ban m' pou ou. Wa a leve kanpe.
21 And Ehud put forth his left hand, and tooke the dagger from his right thigh, and thrust it into his bellie,
Eyoud lonje men gòch li, li rale ponya a bò kwis pye dwat li, epi li sèvi wa a yon kou nan vant.
22 So that the hafte went in after the blade, and the fatte closed about the blade, so that he could not drawe the dagger out of his bellie, but the dirt came out.
Li foure ponya a tout longè l' nèt jouk manch li pèdi nan vant li, epi po grès la fèmen sou ponya a paske Eyoud pa t' rale l' soti. Pwent ponya a menm te parèt pa dèyè.
23 Then Ehud gate him out into the porch, and shut the doores of the parler vpon him, and locked them.
Lèfini, Eyoud soti nan chanm lan, li fèmen pòt yo dèyè l', li klete yo,
24 And when he was gone out, his seruantes came: who seeing that the doores of the parler were locked, they sayd, Surely he doeth his easement in his sommer chamber.
epi l' ale fè wout li. Lè domestik wa yo vini, yo wè pòt chanm wa a te fèmen akle. Yo di konsa: -Gen lè wa a okipe anndan an. L'ap fè bezwen li.
25 And they taryed till they were ashamed: and seeing he opened not the doores of the parler, they tooke the key, and opened them, and behold, their lord was fallen dead on the earth.
Yo tann yon bon ti moman, yo ba li tan pou l' fini. Men, yo wè li pa janm louvri pòt la. Lè sa a, yo pran kle a epi yo louvri. Yo wè wa a kouche tou long atè, li te mouri!
26 So Ehud escaped (while they taried) and was passed the quarris, and escaped vnto Seirah.
Pandan mesye yo t'ap tann tout tan sa a, Eyoud menm gen tan chape kò l'. Li pase bò estati zidòl yo, epi li pran wout mòn Seyira a pou li, l' ale.
27 And when he came home, he blew a trumpet in mount Ephraim, and the children of Israel went downe with him from the mountaine, and he went before them.
Lè li rive Seyira nan mòn peyi Efrayim lan, li kònen pou rele moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Moun pèp Izrayèl yo desann soti nan mòn lan, epi Eyoud pran mache alatèt yo.
28 Then said he vnto them, Follow me: for the Lord hath deliuered your enemies, euen Moab into your hand. So they went downe after him, and tooke the passages of Iorden towarde Moab, and suffred not a man to passe ouer.
Li di yo konsa: -Swiv mwen! Seyè a lage moun Moab yo, lènmi nou yo, nan men nou jòdi a! Yo tout desann swiv li. Yo bare pas dlo kote moun Moab yo konn janbe larivyè Jouden an. Yo pa kite yon moun pase.
29 And they slewe of the Moabites the same time about ten thousand men, all fed men, and all were warriours, and there escaped not a man.
Lè sa a, yo te touye dimil (10.000) sòlda konsa, sòlda ki te gwonèg epi ki te konn goumen. Yonn pa chape.
30 So Moab was subdued that daye, vnder the hand of Israel: and the land had rest fourescore yeeres.
Jou sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo bat moun Moab yo byen bat. Apre sa, pandan katreventan te gen lapè nan peyi a.
31 And after him was Shamgar the sonne of Anath, which slewe of the Philistims sixe hundreth men with an oxe goade, and he also deliuered Israel.
Apre Eyoud, yo vin gen yon lòt chèf: Se te Chanmga, pitit Anat. Li menm menm avèk yon fwèt kach po bèf, li te touye sisan (600) sòlda nan lame moun Filisti yo. Konsa li delivre pèp Izrayèl la.
