Deuteronomy 13
1 If there arise in the midst of thee a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and he giveth thee a sign or a token,
Si ta gen nan mitan nou yon pwofèt osinon yon moun ki konn fè vizyon, epi ki ta fè konnen kèk siy osinon kèk gwo bagay pral rive nan mitan nou,
2 And the sign or the token come to pass, whereof he spoke unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou dost not know, and let us serve them:
si sa li te anonse a rive vre epi li ta vin di nou: Ann al swiv lòt bondye nou poko konnen menm yo! Ann al fè sèvis pou yo!
3 Then shalt thou not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams; for the Lord your God proveth you, to know whether ye indeed love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
nou pa fèt pou nou koute pawòl pwofèt sa a ap di, ni sa moun ki konn fè vizyon an ap vin rakonte nan zòrèy nou. Paske se Seyè a, Bondye nou an, k'ap sonde nou, l'ap chache konnen si vreman vre nou renmen Seyè a ak tout kè nou, ak tout nanm nou.
4 After the Lord your God shall ye walk, and him shall ye fear, and his commandments shall ye keep, and his voice shall ye obey, and him shall ye serve, and unto him shall ye cleave.
Se Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou nou swiv. Se li menm pou nou gen krentif. Se lòd li pou nou swiv. Se sa li di nou pou nou koute. Se li menm pou nou sèvi. Pa janm vire do ba li.
5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken revolt against the Lord your God, who hath brought you out of the land of Egypt, and who hath redeemed you out of the house of bond-men, to mislead thee front the way which the Lord thy God commanded thee to walk therein; and thou shalt put the evil away from the midst of thee.
Kanta pou pwofèt sa a, osinon moun k'ap fè vizyon an, se pou nou touye yo. Paske y'ap ban nou konsèy pou nou kenbe tèt ak Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip epi ki te wete nou nan esklavaj nou te ye laba a. Se pou nou touye yo, paske y'ap chache fè nou kite chemen Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te mete devan nou pou nou te swiv la. Se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
6 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, who is [dear to thee] as thy own soul, should entice thee, in secret, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou dost not know, either thou, or thy fathers;
Si yon frè nou, bò papa osinon bò manman, osinon yon pitit gason nou, osinon yonn nan pitit fi nou, osinon madanm k'ap viv nan menm kay avèk nou, osinon ankò yonn nan bon bon zanmi nou ta chache pran tèt nou an kachèt pou fè n' al sèvi lòt bondye, bondye ni nou menm ni zansèt nou yo pa t' janm konnen,
7 Some of the gods of the nations which are round about you, that are nigh unto thee, or that are far off from thee, from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth:
yonn nan bondye lòt moun k'ap viv ansanm avèk nou sou latè, kit yo toupre nou, kit yo byen lwen nou,
8 Then shalt thou not consent unto him, nor shalt thou hearken unto him; nor shall thy eye look with pity on him, nor shalt thou spare, nor shalt thou conceal it for him;
pa janm tonbe dakò avèk li. Pa koute sa l'ap di nou. Se pou nou san pitye pou li. Pa chache pwoteje li, pa chache kouvri anyen pou li.
9 But thou shalt surely kill him; thy hand shall be the first upon him to put him to death, and the hand of all the people afterward.
Okontrè, se pou nou touye l'. Premye moun ki pou leve men sou li pou touye l' ak koutwòch se va nou menm. Apre sa, n'a kite lòt moun vin ede nou touye l'.
10 And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he sought to mislead thee from the Lord thy God, who hath brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bond-men.
N'a kalonnen l' wòch jouk li mouri, paske li te vle fè nou vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, li menm ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip kote nou te nan esklavaj la.
11 And all Israel shall hear it, and they shall be afraid, and they shall not do any more such a wicked deed as this is in the midst of thee.
Lè sa a, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo va konn sa, y'a pè. Konsa, yo yonn p'ap janm fè yon bagay mal konsa ankò nan mitan pèp la.
12 If thou shouldst hear concerning one of thy cities, which the Lord thy God hath given thee to dwell there, saying,
Si nou vin tande y'ap di nan yonn nan lavil Seyè a ban nou pou nou rete yo,
13 There have gone forth men, children of worthlessness, from the midst of thee, and have misled the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known:
gen kèk moun, kèk vòryen, moun menm ras ak nou ki te pran tèt moun k'ap viv nan lavil sa a pou fè yo al sèvi lòt bondye nou pa janm konnen,
14 Then shalt thou inquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be true, the thing is certain, such abomination hath been wrought in the midst of thee:
se pou nou chache konnen bagay la byen. N'a mennen ti ankèt nou, n'a poze keksyon adwat agoch. Si bri y'ap fè kouri a vre, si nou jwenn prèv yon bagay mal konsa te fèt vre,
15 Then shalt thou smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, devoting it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, to the edge of the sword.
se pou nou pran nepe nou, se pou nou touye dènye moun ki nan lavil sa a ansanm ak tout bèt yo. Se pou nou detwi lavil la nèt nan dife pou Bondye ansanm ak tou sa ki ladan l'.
16 And all its spoil shalt thou gather into the midst of the market-place thereof, and thou shalt burn with fire the city, and all its spoil entirely, unto the Lord thy God; and it shall be a ruinous heap for ever: it shall not be built again.
N'a ranmase tou sa moun yo te genyen nan lavil la, n'a anpile yo sou plas piblik la. N'a mete dife nan lavil la ak tou sa ki ladan l' pou yo sèvi yon ofrann pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Se pou lavil la toujou rete yon pil mazi pou li pa janm rebati ankò.
17 And there shall not cleave to thy hand aught of the devoted things; in order that the Lord may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and grant thee mercy, and have mercy upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;
Piga nou kenbe pou nou anyen nan bagay nou fèt pou boule pou Seyè a. Se konsa Seyè a va sispann fache sou nou, l'a gen pitye pou nou. Wi, l'a fè pa nou. L'a fè nou peple jan li te pwomèt sa bay zansèt nou yo.
18 When thou wilt hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do what is right in the eyes of the Lord thy God.
Men, se pou nou toujou koute sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap di nou. Se pou nou toujou kenbe tout lòd m'ap ban nou jòdi a. Se pou nou toujou fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
