Deuteronomy 23
1 No one whose testicles are crushed or whose male organ is cut off may enter the assembly of the LORD.
“Nanpwen pèsòn avèk boul grenn li kraze oswa koupe ki va antre nan asanble SENYÈ a.
2 No one of illegitimate birth shall enter into the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation shall none of his enter into the assembly of the LORD.
Nanpwen pèsòn ki ne nan yon relasyon ilejitim ki va antre nan asanble SENYÈ a. Ni okenn nan desandan li yo menm jis rive nan dizyèm jenerasyon p ap antre nan asanble SENYÈ a.
3 An Ammonite or a Moabite shall not enter into the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation shall none belonging to them enter into the assembly of the LORD forever:
Nanpwen Amonit ni Moabit ki va antre nan asanble SENYÈ a. Okenn nan desandan li yo menm jis rive nan dizyèm jenerasyon p ap antre nan asanble SENYÈ a,
4 because they did not meet you with bread and with water in the way, when you came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Aram Naharaim, to curse you.
akoz yo pa t vin jwenn nou avèk manje ak dlo lè nou te sòti an Égypte la, epi akoz yo te achte sèvis Balaam, fis Beor ki sòti Pethor nan Mésopotamie pou modi nou.
5 Nevertheless the LORD your God wouldn't listen to Balaam; but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because the LORD your God loved you.
Sepandan, SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pa t dakò tande Balaam. Men SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te vire madichon an pou l devni yon benediksyon pou nou akoz SENYÈ nou an renmen nou.
6 You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever.
Nou pa pou chache lapè pou yo, ni pwosperite yo pandan tout jou nou yo.
7 You shall not abhor an Edomite; for he is your brother: you shall not abhor an Egyptian, because you lived as a foreigner in his land.
Nou pa pou meprize yon Edomit, paske li se frè nou. Nou pa pou meprize yon Ejipsyen, paske nou te yon etranje nan peyi li.
8 The children of the third generation who are born to them shall enter into the assembly of the LORD.
Fis a twazyèm jenerasyon ki fèt pou yo a kapab antre nan asanble SENYÈ a.
9 When you go forth in camp against your enemies, then you shall keep yourselves from every evil thing.
Lè nou sòti kòm yon lame kont lènmi nou yo, nou va evite tout kalite move bagay.
10 If there is among you any man who is not clean by reason of that which happens him by night, then shall he go outside of the camp. He shall not come within the camp:
Si gen pami nou, yon nonm ki pa pwòp akoz li ejakile nan lannwit; alò, li oblije ale deyò kan an. Li pa kapab reantre nan kan an,
11 but it shall be, when evening comes on, he shall bathe himself in water; and when the sun is down, he shall come within the camp.
men li va fèt ke lè aswè rive, li va benyen tèt li avèk dlo. Konsa, lè solèy kouche, li kapab reantre nan kan an.
12 You shall have a place also outside of the camp, where you shall go outside there;
Ou va, osi, gen yon kote deyò kan an; epi se la ou gen pou ou ale pou eliminen pèsonèl.
13 and you shall have a spade among your tools; and it shall be, when you sit down outside, you shall dig therewith, and shall turn and cover that which comes from you:
Konsa, nou va genyen yon pèl pami zouti nou yo, epi li va fèt ke lè nou chita deyò a, nou va fouye avèk li, e nou va kouvri poupou nou.
14 for the LORD your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you; therefore your camp shall be holy, that he may not see an unclean thing in you, and turn away from you.
Akoz SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, mache nan mitan kan nou yo pou delivre nou, e venk lènmi nou yo devan nou; pou sa, fòk kan nou yo sen. Fòk Li pa wè anyen ki pa pwòp pami nou; oswa, Li va vire kite nou.
15 You shall not deliver to his master a servant who is escaped from his master to you:
Nou pa pou lonje remèt yon esklav ki te kouri kite mèt li pou rive kote nou.
16 he shall dwell with you, in the midst of you, in the place which he shall choose within one of your gates, where it pleases him best: you shall not oppress him.
Li va viv avèk nou nan mitan nou, nan yon kote li chwazi pami youn nan vil pa nou yo ki fè l plezi. Nou pa pou maltrete li.
17 There shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Israel, neither shall there be a sacred male prostitute of the children of Israel.
Okenn nan fi Israël yo p ap sèvi kòm pwostitiye nan tanp payen yo. Ni okenn nan fis Israël yo p ap sèvi pou pwostitiye nan tanp payen yo.
18 You shall not bring the hire of a prostitute, or the wages of a dog, into the house of the LORD your God for any vow: for even both these are an abomination to the LORD your God.
Nou pa pou mennen salè a yon pwostitiye ni frè jounalye a yon chen pede pou antre lakay SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou okenn ofrann ve; paske toude sa yo abominab a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
19 You shall not lend on interest to your brother; interest of money, interest of food, interest of anything that is lent on interest:
Nou pa pou mande enterè lajan a sitwayen parèy nou yo: enterè sou lajan, manje, oswa nenpòt bagay ki kapab prete ak enterè.
20 to a foreigner you may lend on interest; but to your brother you shall not lend on interest, that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you put your hand to, in the land where you go in to possess it.
Nou kapab tire enterè sou yon etranje; men pou sitwayen parèy nou, nou pa pou mande enterè, jis pou SENYÈ, Bondye nou an, kapab beni nou nan tout sa ke nou eseye fè nan peyi ke nou prèt pou antre posede a.
21 When you shall vow a vow to the LORD your God, you shall not be slack to pay it: for the LORD your God will surely require it of you; and it would be sin in you.
Lè nou fè yon ve a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, nou p ap pran reta pou peye li, paske sa ta yon peche nan ou, e SENYÈ, Bondye nou an, va, anverite, egzije l nan men nou.
22 But if you shall forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in you.
Sepandan, si nou te evite fè ve a, sa pa t ap peche nan nou.
23 That which is gone out of your lips you shall observe and do; according as you have vowed to the LORD your God, a freewill offering, which you have promised with your mouth.
Nou va fè atansyon pou fè tout sa ki sòti nan lèv nou. Nenpòt jan ke nou te fè ve selon volonte SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, tout sa nou oblije fè.
24 When you come into your neighbor's vineyard, then you may eat of grapes your fill at your own pleasure; but you shall not put any in your vessel.
Lè nou antre nan chan rezen vwazen nou, nou kapab manje rezen yo jiskaske vant nou plen; men nou pa pou mete nan panyen nou.
25 When you come into your neighbor's standing grain, then you may pluck the ears with your hand; but you shall not move a sickle to your neighbor's standing grain.
Lè nou antre nan chan sereyal ki pou vwazen nou, nou gen dwa rekòlte tèt grenn yo avèk men nou; men nou pa kapab voye kouto a nan rekòlt sereyal a vwazen nou an.
