Deuteronomy 26
1 And it shall be, when you are come in to the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance, and possess it, and dwell therein;
“Konsa, li va rive ke lè nou antre nan peyi ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te bannou kòm eritaj la, epi nou vin posede li pou viv ladann,
2 That you shall take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which you shall bring of your land that the LORD your God gives you, and shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which the LORD your God shall choose to place his name there.
ke nou va pran kèk nan premye a tout pwodwi latè ke nou mennen antre sòti nan peyi ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te bannou an. Nou va mete li nan yon panyen e ale kote SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, nan plas SENYÈ Bondye nou va chwazi pou etabli non Li an.
3 And you shall go to the priest that shall be in those days, and say to him, I profess this day to the LORD your God, that I am come to the country which the LORD swore to our fathers for to give us.
Nou va ale vè prèt ki anplas nan tan sa a, e nou va di li: ‘Mwen deklare nan jou sa a SENYÈ a, Bondye ou, ke mwen te antre nan peyi ke SENYÈ a te sèmante a zansèt nou yo pou bannou an.’”
4 And the priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before the altar of the LORD your God.
“Alò, prèt la va pran panyen an soti nan men ou e mete li devan lotèl SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a.
5 And you shall speak and say before the LORD your God, A Syrian ready to perish was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous:
“Ou va reponn e di devan SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a: ‘Papa m te yon vwayajè Arameyen fèt pou peri. Li te desann an Égypte, e li te demere la. Yo te piti an kantite, men la, li te devni yon gran nasyon pwisan avèk anpil moun.
6 And the Egyptians evil entreated us, and afflicted us, and laid on us hard bondage:
Ejipsyen yo te trete nou byen di e te aflije nou. Yo te enpoze travay fòse sou nou.
7 And when we cried to the LORD God of our fathers, the LORD heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labor, and our oppression:
Alò, nou te kriye a SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt nou yo, epi SENYÈ a te tande vwa nou e te wè afliksyon nou avèk travay di ak opresyon yo.
8 And the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders:
Konsa, SENYÈ a te mennen nou sòti an Égypte avèk yon men pwisan, yon bra lonje, avèk gwo krent, avèk sign ak mèvèy.
9 And he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, even a land that flows with milk and honey.
Li te mennen nou nan kote sa a, e te bannou peyi sa a, yon peyi k ap koule avèk lèt ak siwo myèl.
10 And now, behold, I have brought the first fruits of the land, which you, O LORD, have given me. And you shall set it before the LORD your God, and worship before the LORD your God:
“‘Koulye a, veye byen, mwen te mennen premye pwodwi a tè a, ke Ou menm, O SENYÈ a te ban mwen.’ Ou va mete li la devan SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, epi adore devan SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a;
11 And you shall rejoice in every good thing which the LORD your God has given to you, and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the stranger that is among you.
epi ou menm avèk Levit la ak etranje ki pami nou an va rejwi nan tout bonte ke SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, te bannou avèk tout lakay nou.
12 When you have made an end of tithing all the tithes of your increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and have given it to the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within your gates, and be filled;
“Lè nou fin peye tout dim a pwodwi yo nan twazyèm ane a, ane a dim nan; alò, nou va bay li a Levit la, a etranje a, a òfelen an, e a vèv la, pou yo kapab manje nan vil nou yo e vin satisfè.
13 Then you shall say before the LORD your God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandments which you have commanded me: I have not transgressed your commandments, neither have I forgotten them.
“Nou va di devan SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ‘Mwen te retire pòsyon sen ki te lakay mwen an; epi osi, mwen te bay li a Levit la ak etranje a, avèk òfelen ak vèv la, selon tout kòmandman Ou yo, ke Ou te kòmande mwen. Mwen pa t vyole ni bliye okenn nan kòmandman Ou yo.
14 I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I taken away anything thereof for any unclean use, nor given anything thereof for the dead: but I have listened to the voice of the LORD my God, and have done according to all that you have commanded me.
Mwen pa t manje ladann pandan lamantasyon mwen, ni mwen pa t retire anyen ladann pandan mwen pa t pwòp, ni pa t ofri anyen nan li a mò yo. Mwen te koute vwa SENYÈ a, Bondye mwen an. Mwen te fè selon tout sa ke Ou te kòmande mwen yo.
15 Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the land which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land that flows with milk and honey.
Gade anba depi nan abitasyon sen Ou an, depi nan syèl la, e beni pèp Ou a, Israël avèk tè ke Ou te bannou an, yon tè ki koule avèk lèt ak siwo myèl, jan Ou te sèmante a zansèt nou yo.’
16 This day the LORD your God has commanded you to do these statutes and judgments: you shall therefore keep and do them with all your heart, and with all your soul.
“Nan jou sa a, SENYÈ a Bondye nou an, kòmande nou pou fè lwa avèk règleman sila yo. Nou va fè atansyon pou fè yo avèk tout kè nou e avèk tout nanm nou.
17 You have avouched the LORD this day to be your God, and to walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and to listen to his voice:
“Jodi a, nou te pwoklame SENYÈ a, se Bondye nou, ke nou ta mache nan chemen Li yo, kenbe lwa Li yo, règleman Li yo ak kòmandman Li yo, e koute vwa Li.
18 And the LORD has avouched you this day to be his peculiar people, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments;
“Jodi a, SENYÈ a te pwoklame nou se pèp Li, yon posesyon presye, jan Li te pwomèt nou an, epi nou ta dwe kenbe tout kòmandman Li yo.
19 And to make you high above all nations which he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that you may be an holy people to the LORD your God, as he has spoken.
Konsa, Li va plase nou wo anwo tout lòt nasyon ke Li te fè yo, pou lwanj, repitasyon ak onè, pou nou kapab yon pèp konsakre a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, jan Li te pale a.”
