Judges 12
1 And the men of Ephraim were called together, and went northward, and said unto Yiphthach, Wherefore didst thou pass over to fight against the children of 'Ammon, and didst not call for us to go with thee? thy house will we burn over thee with fire.
Lè sa a, moun branch fanmi Efrayim yo reyini ansanm, yo janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden, y' al lavil Zafon. Yo di Jefte konsa: -Poukisa ou travèse al goumen ak moun Amon yo san ou pa rele nou ale avè ou? Se poutèt sa, nou pral boule kay ou a sou ou.
2 And Yiphthach said unto them, I and my people were greatly engaged in strife with the children of 'Ammon; and I called you, but ye helped me not out of their hand.
Men Jefte di yo: -Moun pa m' yo ansanm avè m', nou te gen yon gwo kont ak moun Amon yo. Mwen te rele nou, men nou pa t' vle vin delivre m' anba men yo.
3 And when I saw that ye helped me not, I put my life in my hand, and passed over to the children of 'Ammon, and the Lord delivered them into my hand; and why then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?
Lè m' wè nou pa t' soti pou nou vin pote m' sekou, m' al riske vi m'. Mwen travèse al goumen ak moun Amon yo, epi Seyè a lage yo nan men m'. Poukisa pou koulye a nou moute jouk lakay mwen vin chache m' kont?
4 Then Yiphthach gathered together all the men of Gil'ad, and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gil'ad smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye are fugitives of Ephraim: Gil'ad is in the midst, between Ephraim and Menasseh.
Lè sa a menm, Jefte sanble tout gason ki nan peyi Galarad la, y' al goumen ak moun Efrayim yo. Yo bat yo byen bat. Moun Efrayim yo te konn joure moun Galarad yo. Yo te konn di: Moun Galarad yo, se yon bann trèt yo ye. Yo kite peyi yo, Efrayim, y' al rete nan peyi Manase a!
5 And the Gil'adites seized on the passages of the Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it came to pass, when the Ephraimites who had escaped said, Let me pass over; that the men of Gil'ad said unto him, Art thou an Ephrathite? and if he said, No;
Apre sa, moun Galarad yo pran kontwole tout pas larivyè Jouden kote pou janbe ale nan peyi Efrayim. Chak fwa yonn nan moun Efrayim yo rive pou yo kouri janbe al nan peyi yo, li te blije mande yo pèmisyon. Lè konsa, moun Galarad yo mande l' èske se moun Efrayim li ye. Si li reponn non,
6 Then said they unto him, Do say, Shibboleth; but when he said, Sibboleth, and was not able to pronounce it correctly, they laid hold of him and slew him on the passages of the Jordan; and there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand.
lè sa a yo mande l' pou l' di: Chibolèt. Men li di: Sibolèt paske li pa t' ka rive di l' jan yo di l' la. Lamenm yo mete men sou li, yo touye l' la nan pas la. Lè sa a, yo te touye karanndemil (42.000) moun nan branch fanmi Efrayim lan.
7 And Yiphthach judged Israel six years; and then died Yiphthach the Gil'adite, and was buried in [one of] the cities of Gil'ad.
Jefte, moun Galarad la, te gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la pandan sizan. Apre sa, li mouri, epi yo antere l' nan lavil kote li te fèt la nan peyi Galarad.
8 And after him there judged Israel Ibzan of Beth-lechem.
Apre Jefte, se Ibzan, moun lavil Betleyèm, ki te gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
9 And he had thirty sons; and thirty daughters he sent abroad, and thirty daughters he brought in for his sons from abroad: and he judged Israel seven years.
Li te gen trant pitit gason ak trant pitit fi. Li marye trant pitit fi l' yo ak moun ki pa t' nan branch fanmi l' epi li fè chache jenn fi nan lòt branch fanmi pou pitit gason l' yo. Li gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la pandan sètan.
10 Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Beth-lechem.
Apre sa, Ibzan mouri, yo antere l' lavil Betleyèm.
11 And after him there judged Israel Elon the Zebulonite; and he judged Israel ten years.
Apre li, se Elon, moun Zabilon an, ki te gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la pandan dizan.
12 Then died Elon the Zebulonite, and was buried in Ayalon in the country of Zebulun.
Lè Elon, moun Zabilon an, mouri, yo antere l' lavil Ajalon nan peyi Zabilon.
13 And after him there judged Israel 'Abdon the son of Hillel the Pir'athonite.
Apre li, se Abdon, pitit gason Ilèl, moun lavil Piraton, ki t'ap gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
14 And he had forty sons and thirty grandsons, that rode on seventy ass-colts; and he judged Israel eight years.
Li te gen karant pitit gason ak trant pitit pitit gason ki te konn moute sou swasanndis ti bourik. Li gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la pandan witan.
15 Then died 'Abdon the son of Hillel the Pir'athonite, and was buried in Pir'athon in the land of Ephraim, in the mountain of the 'Amalekites.
Lè Abdon, pitit gason Ilèl la, mouri, yo antere l' lavil Piraton nan peyi Efrayim, nan mòn moun Amalèk yo.
