Genesis 23
1 And the life of Sarah was a hundred and seven and twenty years; these were the years of the life of Sarah.
Sara viv sanvennsetan (127 an).
2 And Sarah died in Kiriatharba — the same is Hebron — in the land of Canaan; and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
Li mouri yon kote yo rele Kiriyat Aba osinon Ebwon nan peyi Kanaran. Abraram pran lapenn pou lanmò Sara, li plenn sò li.
3 And Abraham rose up from before his dead, and spoke unto the children of Heth, saying:
Abraram leve bò kote kadav la, li ale pale ak moun Et yo. Li di yo konsa:
4 'I am a stranger and a sojourner with you: give me a possession of a burying-place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.'
-Se etranje mwen ye, se depasaj mwen ye nan mitan nou. Vann mwen yon anplasman pou m' ka antere madanm mwen, konsa m'a wete kadav la devan je m'.
5 And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him:
Moun Et yo reponn Abraram, yo di l' konsa:
6 'Hear us, my lord: thou art a mighty prince among us; in the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury thy dead.'
-Mèt, koute sa n'ap di ou. Ou se yon gwonèg Bondye voye nan mitan nou. Chwazi yonn nan pi bon kavo nou yo pou antere madanm ou. Pa gen yonn nan nou ki pou ta refize ba ou kavo li pou antere madanm ou.
7 And Abraham rose up, and bowed down to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth.
Abraram kanpe. Pa respè pou moun Et yo, li bese tèt li byen ba devan yo.
8 And he spoke with them, saying: 'If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,
Li di yo: -Si nou dakò pou m' antere madanm mwen isit la, pou m' wete kadav li devan je m', koute sa m'ap di nou. Nou konnen Efwon, pitit gason Zoka a? Pale avè l' pou mwen.
9 that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which is in the end of his field; for the full price let him give it to me in the midst of you for a possession of a burying-place.'
Mande l' pou l' vann mwen twou wòch Makpela a ki pou li nan bout jaden l' lan. Mande l' pou l' vann mwen li pou pri li vo, pou sa ka sèvi m' simityè isit la.
10 Now Ephron was sitting in the midst of the children of Heth; and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the children of Heth, even of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying:
Efwon te chita la avèk lòt moun Et yo, bò pòtay lavil la, kote moun yo konn reyini an. Devan moun Et yo, devan tout moun ki t'ap pase bò pòtay la, Efwon reponn Abraram. Li di li:
11 'Nay, my lord, hear me: the field give I thee, and the cave that is therein, I give it thee; in the presence of the sons of my people give I it thee; bury thy dead.'
-Non, mèt! Koute sa m'ap di ou: Mwen fè ou kado jaden an ak tout twou wòch ki ladan l' lan. Mwen fè ou kado l' devan tout moun peyi m' yo. M'ap ba ou l' pou ou ka antere madanm ou.
12 And Abraham bowed down before the people of the land.
Men, Abraram bese tèt li byen ba devan moun Et yo.
13 And he spoke unto Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, saying: 'But if thou wilt, I pray thee, hear me: I will give the price of the field; take it of me, and I will bury my dead there.'
Li pale ak Efwon pou tout moun ka tande. Li di l': -Koute sa m'ap di ou: M'ap achte tout jaden an nan men ou pou pri li vo. Tanpri, asepte lajan m'ap ba ou pou li a. Se lè sa a m'a antere madanm mwen ladan l'.
14 And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him:
Efwon reponn Abraram: -Mèt, tanpri koute sa m'ap di ou:
15 'My lord, hearken unto me: a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that betwixt me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.'
Yon moso tè ki vo katsan (400) pyès lò, pa gen rezon pou n'ap diskite pou sa. Antere madanm ou sou li non!
16 And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron; and Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver, which he had named in the hearing of the children of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current money with the merchant.
Abraram dakò ak sa Efwon di l' la. Li peze lajan an, li bay Efwon li devan tout moun Et yo. Wi, li ba li katsan (400) pyès lò dapre jan kòmèsan yo te sèvi nan peyi a.
17 So the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, and the cave which was therein, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all the border thereof round about, were made sure
Se konsa, moso tè Efwon te gen Makpela a, anfas peyi Manmre a, ansanm ak tout twou wòch la ak tout pyebwa ki nan jaden an, jouk sou lizyè li,
18 unto Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all that went in at the gate of his city.
yo vin pou Abraram, devan tout moun Et yo, devan tout moun ki te bò pòtay la.
19 And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre — the same is Hebron — in the land of Canaan.
Apre sa, Abraram antere Sara, madanm li, nan twou wòch ki te nan jaden Makpela a, anfas Manmre yo rele Ebwon an, nan peyi Kanaran.
20 And the field, and the cave that is therein, were made sure unto Abraham for a possession of a burying-place by the children of Heth.
Se konsa, Abraram achte jaden an ak tout twou wòch ki te ladan l' lan, nan men moun Et yo, li fè l' sèvi simityè pou li.
