Genesis 20
1 And Abraham journeyed from thence toward the land of the South, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur; and he sojourned in Gerar.
Abraram kite Manmre, li pati, li ale Negèv, li rete ant Kadès ak Chour kote li moute kay li. Pandan tout tan li t'ap viv nan peyi Gera a,
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife: 'She is my sister.' And Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
li t'ap di se sè li Sara te ye. Se konsa, Abimelèk, wa peyi Gera a, fè yo mennen Sara ba li.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him: 'Behold, thou shalt die, because of the woman whom thou hast taken; for she is a man's wife.'
Men pandan lannwit, Abimelèk fè yon rèv, li wè Bondye parèt devan li. Bondye di l'. Gade non, monchè. Ou pral mouri tande, paske Sara se yon madan marye.
4 Now Abimelech had not come near her; and he said: 'Lord, wilt Thou slay even a righteous nation?
Men, Abimelèk pa t' gen tan kouche avè Sara. Li di. Mèt, èske w'ap kite yon pèp inonsan peri?
5 Said he not himself unto me: She is my sister? and she, even she herself said: He is my brother. In the simplicity of my heart and the innocency of my hands have I done this.'
Se Abraram ki di m' se sè li Sara ye. Sara pou tèt pa l' di m' se frè li Abraram ye. Mwen fè sa m' fè a san ankenn move lide. Mwen konnen mwen pa fè anyen ki mal.
6 And God said unto him in the dream: 'Yea, I know that in the simplicity of thy heart thou hast done this, and I also withheld thee from sinning against Me. Therefore suffered I thee not to touch her.
Bondye reponn li nan rèv la. Wi. Mwen konnen ou fè sa ou fè a san ankenn move lide dèyè tèt ou. Se poutèt sa mwen pa kite ou fè peche sa a kont mwen. Mwen pa kite ou fè madanm lan anyen.
7 Now therefore restore the man's wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live; and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine.'
Men sa pou ou fè: renmèt nonm lan madanm li. Se yon pwofèt Bondye li ye. La lapriyè pou ou pou ou pa mouri. Men, si ou pa renmèt li, mwen tout di ou nou pral mouri, ou menm ansanm ak tout fanmi ou.
8 And Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears; and the men were sore afraid.
Nan maten, bonè bonè, Abimelèk rele tout domestik li yo, li rakonte yo tout bagay. Yo tout yo te pè anpil.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him: 'What hast thou done unto us? and wherein have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done.'
Lèfini, Abimelèk rele Abraram, li di l'. Kisa ou fè nou konsa? Kisa m' fè ou pou ou ta lakòz yon gwo malè konsa tonbe sou mwen ak sou peyi a? Sa ou fè nou la a, se bagay moun pa gen dwa fè.
10 And Abimelech said unto Abraham: 'What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?'
Abimelèk di Abraram ankò. Poukisa ou fè sa ou fè a?
11 And Abraham said: 'Because I thought: Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.
Abraram reponn li. Mwen te di nan kè m' pa gen moun ki gen krentif pou Bondye bò isit la. Mwen tè kwè yo ta ka touye m' poutèt madanm mwen.
12 And moreover she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and so she became my wife.
Men, se vre wi, se sè m' li ye. Nou menm papa, men nou pa menm manman. Epi se madanm mwen li ye tou.
13 And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said unto her: This is thy kindness which thou shalt show unto me; at every place whither we shall come, say of me: He is my brother.'
Se konsa, lè Bondye fè m' kite lakay papa m' pou m' al nan peyi etranje yo, mwen di Sara: m'ap mande ou pou rann mwen yon sèvis? Si ou renmen m' vre, tanpri, kote ou pase, se pou di se frè ou mwen ye.
14 And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and men-servants and women-servants, and gave them unto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
Lè sa a, Abimelèk renmèt Sara bay Abraram. Anmenmtan li ba li mouton, bèf ak domestik, fanm kou gason, pou sèvi l'.
15 And Abimelech said: 'Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.'
Li di Abraram. Gade! tout peyi m' lan devan ou. Rete kote ki fè ou plezi.
16 And unto Sarah he said: 'Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver; behold, it is for thee a covering of the eyes to all that are with thee; and before all men thou art righted.'
Epi li di Sara. Mwen bay frè ou la mil (1.000) pyès lajan. Se pou sa ka fè moun ki la avè ou yo bliye sak te rive ou. Konsa, tout moun va konnen ou pa t' fè anyen ki mal.
17 And Abraham prayed unto God; and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maid-servants; and they bore children.
Abraram lapriyè pou Abimelèk, epi Bondye geri li. Bondye geri madanm li tout ansanm ak medam k'ap travay lakay li pou yo kapab fè pitit ankò.
18 For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham's wife.
Poutèt sa ki te rive Sara, madanm Abraram lan, Seyè a te fè tout fanm lakay Abimelèk pa t' kapab fè pitit.
