1 Samuel 6
1 And the Ark of YHWH is in the field of the Philistines [for] seven months,
Alò, lach SENYÈ a te nan peyi Filisten yo pandan sèt mwa.
2 and the Philistines call for priests and for diviners, saying, “What do we do to the Ark of YHWH? Let us know with what we send it to its place.”
Konsa, Filisten yo te rele prèt yo avèk divinò yo, e te di yo: “Kisa pou nou fè avèk lach SENYÈ a? Di nou kijan nou dwe voye li nan plas li.”
3 And they say, “If you are sending the Ark of the God of Israel away, you do not send it away empty; for you certainly send back a guilt-offering to Him; then you are healed, and it has been known to you why His hand does not turn aside from you.”
Yo te di: “Si ou voye lach Bondye Israël la ale, pa voye li vid, men ou va anverite, remèt Li yon ofrann koupab. Konsa nou va geri e li va vin konprann poukisa men L poko retire sou nou.”
4 And they say, “What [is] the guilt-offering which we send back to Him?” And they say, “The number of the princes of the Philistines—five golden lumps, and five golden muroids—for one plague [is] to you all, and to your princes,
Yo te reponn: “Kisa nou dwe voye kòm ofrann koupab pou remèt Li a?” Epi yo te di: “Senk imaj boul bouton fèt an lò avèk senk imaj sourit fèt an lò nan non prens Filisten yo. Paske se te yon sèl fleyo ki te vini sou nou tout ak sou prens nou yo.
5 and you have made images of your lumps, and images of your muroids that are corrupting the land, and have given glory to the God of Israel; it may be [that] He lightens His hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land;
Konsa nou va fè yo sanblab a boul bouton nou yo, e sanblab a sourit ki anvayi peyi nou an, epi nou va bay glwa a Bondye Israël la. Petèt Li kab lache men l sou nou.
6 and why do you harden your heart as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their heart? Do they not—when He has rolled Himself on them—send them away, and they go?
Poukisa nou fè kè di tankou Ejipsyen yo avèk Farawon te fè kè yo di a? Lè li te fin aji sevèman avèk yo, èske li pa t kite pèp la ale e yo te ale?
7 And now, take and make one new cart, and two suckling cows, on which a yoke has not gone up, and you have bound the cows in the cart, and caused their young ones to turn back from after them to the house,
“Pou sa, ale fè yon kabwèt nèf avèk de vach nouris ki pa t janm rale chaj. Fè vach yo rale chaj sou kabwèt la e retire ti bèf yo mennen yo lakay, lwen yo.
8 and you have taken the Ark of YHWH, and put it on the cart, and the vessels of gold which you have returned to Him—a guilt-offering—you put in a coffer on its side, and have sent it away, and it has gone;
Pran lach SENYÈ a e mete li sou kabwèt la, epi mete bagay an lò ke nou ap retounen bay kòm ofrann koupab la nan yon bwat akote li. Alò, voye li ale pou li kapab ale.
9 and you have seen if it goes up the way of its own border, to Beth-Shemesh—He has done this great evil to us; and if not, then we have known that His hand has not come against us; it has been an accident to us.”
Veye, si li monte pa chemen Béth-Schémesch. Konsa n a konnen se Li menm ki fè nou gwo malè sila a. Men si se pa konsa; alò, nou va konnen ke se pa men Li menm ki te frape nou an, men sa te vin rive pa aza.”
10 And the men do so, and take two suckling cows, and bind them in the cart, and they shut up their young ones in the house;
Se konsa mesye yo te fè. Yo te pran de vach nouris, yo te fè yo rale chaj nan kabwèt la e te fèmen ti bèf yo lakay.
11 and they place the Ark of YHWH on the cart, and the coffer, and the golden muroids, and the images of their lumps.
Yo te mete lach SENYÈ a sou kabwèt la e bwat la avèk sourit an lò ak imaj gwo boul bouton yo.
12 And the cows go straight in the way, on the way to Beth-Shemesh, they have gone in one highway, going and lowing, and have not turned aside right or left; and the princes of the Philistines are going after them to the border of Beth-Shemesh.
Epi vach yo te pran wout dwat nan direksyon Beth-Schémesch. Yo te fè wout nan gran chemen an. Yo te rele fò pandan yo nan wout la, e yo pa t vire akote ni adwat, ni agoch. Prens Filisten yo te swiv yo jis rive nan lizyè Beth-Schémesch la.
13 And the Beth-Shemeshites are reaping their wheat-harvest in the valley, and they lift up their eyes, and see the Ark, and rejoice to see [it].
Alò, Beth-Schémesch t ap fè rekòlt ble pa yo nan vale a. Yo te leve zye yo, yo te wè lach la, e yo te kontan wè li.
14 And the cart has come into the field of Joshua the Beth-Shemeshite, and stands there, and there [is] a great stone, and they cleave the wood of the cart, and they have caused the cows to ascend [as] a burnt-offering to YHWH.
Kabwèt la te vini nan chan Josué a, moun Beth-Schémech, e li te kanpe la kote ki te gen yon gwo wòch. Konsa, yo te fann bwa kabwèt la e yo te ofri vach yo kòm ofrann brile a SENYÈ a.
15 And the Levites have taken down the Ark of YHWH, and the coffer which [is] with it, in which [are] the vessels of gold, and place [them] on the great stone; and the men of Beth-Shemesh have caused burnt-offerings to ascend and sacrifice sacrifices in that day to YHWH;
Levit yo te desann lach SENYÈ a ak bwat ki te avèk li a. Andedan te gen tout bagay an lò yo e yo te mete yo sou gwo wòch la. Epi mesye Beth-Schémech yo te ofri ofrann brile e yo te fè sakrifis nan jou sa a bay SENYÈ a.
16 and the five princes of the Philistines have seen [it], and return [to] Ekron, on that day.
Lè senk prens Filisten yo te fin wè li, yo te retounen Ékron menm jou a.
17 And these [are] the golden lumps which the Philistines have sent back—a guilt-offering to YHWH: one for Ashdod, one for Gaza, one for Ashkelon, one for Gath, one for Ekron;
Sa yo se imaj gwo boul bouton an lò ke Filisten yo te remèt kòm yon ofrann koupab bay SENYÈ a: youn pou Asdod, youn pou Gaza, youn pou Askalon, youn pou Gath e youn pou Ékron;
18 and the golden muroids—the number of all the cities of the Philistines, for the five princes, from the fortified city even to a village of the open place, and to the great stone [[or great meadow]] on which they placed the Ark of YHWH—[are] in the field of Joshua the Beth-Shemeshite to this day.
anplis ak sourit an lò yo, selon kantite a tout vil Filisten ki te pou senk prens yo, vil fòtifye yo ak bouk andeyò yo. Gwo wòch kote yo te mete lach SENYÈ a se yon temwen jis rive jodi a nan chan Josué a, moun Beth-Schémech la.
19 And He strikes among the men of Beth-Shemesh, for they looked into the Ark of YHWH, indeed, He strikes seventy men [out] of fifty thousand men [[or fifty thousand and seventy men]] among the people; and the people mourn, because YHWH struck among the people [with] a great striking.
Li te frape e fè mouri kèk mesye Beth-Schémech akoz yo te gade anndan lach SENYÈ a. Li te frape pami tout pèp la, senkant-mil-swasann-dis òm e pèp la te vin dezole akoz SENYÈ a te frape yo avèk yon gwo masak.
20 And the men of Beth-Shemesh say, “Who is able to stand before YHWH, this holy God? And to whom does He go up from us?”
Mesye Beth-Schémech yo te di: “Se kilès ki kab kanpe devan SENYÈ Bondye sen sila a? Epi a kilès pou Li ta monte kite nou?”
21 And they send messengers to the inhabitants of Kirjath-Jearim, saying, “The Philistines have sent back the Ark of YHWH; come down, take it up with you.”
Konsa, yo te voye mesaje yo vè moun Kirjath-Jearim yo e te di: “Filisten yo te pote lach SENYÈ a retounen. Vin desann pran li monte kote nou an.”
