Judges 12
1 And the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and went northward, and said unto Jephthah, Wherefore passedst thou over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thine house upon thee with fire.
Alò, fis a Éphraïm yo te rasanble. Yo te travèse vè Tsaphon e te di a Jephethé: “Poukisa ou te travèse pou batay avèk fis Ammon yo san rele nou pou ale avèk ou? Nou va brile kay ou sou ou.”
2 And Jephthah said unto them, I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, ye delivered me not out of their hands.
Jephthé te di yo: “Mwen avèk pèp mwen an t ap fè gwo kont avèk fis Ammon yo; epi lè mwen te rele nou, nou pa t delivre mwen nan men yo.
3 And when I saw that ye delivered me not, I put my life in my hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon, And Yhwh delivered them into my hand: wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?
Lè m te wè ke nou pa t ap delivre mwen, mwen te pran pwòp lavi mwen nan men m, e te travèse lòtbò kont fis Ammon yo, epi SENYÈ a te livre yo nan men m. Poukisa, konsa, nou vin monte sou mwen nan jou sa a pou goumen kont mwen?”
4 Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye Gileadites are fugitives of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, and among the Manassites.
Epi Jephthé te ranmase tout gason Galaad yo pou te goumen kont Éphraïm. Mesye Galaad yo te bat Éphraïm, akoz yo te di: “Se moun sove devan Éphraïm ke nou ye; O Galaadit yo, ki nan mitan Ephraïm ak nan mitan Manassé.”
5 And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay;
Galaadit yo te kaptire tout kote pou janbe Rivyè Jourdain anfas Éphraïm nan. Epi li te rive ke lè nenpòt nan moun sove Éphraïm yo te di: “Kite mwen janbe,” mesye Galaad yo ta di li: “Èske ou se yon Efrayimit?” Epi si li te di: “Non”,
6 Then said they unto him, Say now Shibboleth: and he said Sibboleth: for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan: and there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand.
alò, yo te di li: “Silvouplè, di ‘Shibboleth.’” Men li ta di: “Sibboleth”, paske li pa t kab pwononse li byen. Konsa, yo ta sezi li pou touye li nan kote pou janbe Jourdain an. Konsa, te tonbe nan lè sa a, karann-de-mil nan Efrayimit yo.
7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.
Jephthé te jije Israël pandan sis ane. Epi Jephthé, Galaadit la te mouri e te antere nan youn nan vil nan Galaad yo.
8 And after him Ibzan of Beth–lehem judged Israel.
Alò, Ibtsan a Bethléhem te jije Israël apre li.
9 And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters, whom he sent abroad, and took in thirty daughters from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
Li te gen trant fis ak trant fi ke li te bay an maryaj andeyò fanmi an. Li te fè antre trant fi soti deyò pou fis li yo.
10 Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Beth–lehem.
Konsa, Ibtsan te mouri e te antere Bethléhem.
11 And after him Elon, a Zebulonite, judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
Alò, Élon, Zabilonit lan te jije Israël apre li. Li te jije Israël pandan dis ane.
12 And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun.
Konsa, Élon, Zabilonit lan te mouri e te antere nan Ajalon nan peyi a Zabulon.
13 And after him Abdon the son of Hillel, a Pirathonite, judged Israel.
Alò, Abdon, fis a Hillel la, Piratonit lan te jije Israël apre li.
14 And he had forty sons and thirty nephews, that rode on threescore and ten donkey colts: and he judged Israel eight years.
Li te gen karant fis avèk trant pitit pitit ki te monte sou swasann-dis bourik. Li te jije Israël pandan uit ane.
15 And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the mount of the Amalekites.
Epi Abdon, fis a Hillel la, Piratonit lan te mouri e te antere nan Pirathon nan peyi Ephraïm nan, nan peyi ti mòn ki te pou Amalekit yo.
