Deuteronomy 29
1 These are the words of the covenant which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which he made with them in Horeb.
Sila yo se pawòl akò a ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse pou fè avèk fis Israël yo nan peyi Moab la, anplis akò Li te fè avèk yo nan Horeb la.
2 Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, You have seen all that the LORD did before your eyes in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land;
Moïse te konvoke tout Israël e te di yo: “Nou te wè tout sa ke SENYÈ a te fè a Farawon nan peyi Égypte la e a tout sèvitè li yo avèk tout peyi li a;
3 the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders:
gwo eprèv ke zye nou te wè yo, gwo sign sa yo avèk mèvèy yo.
4 but the LORD has not given you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, to this day.
Men jis rive jodi a, SENYÈ a pa t bannou yon kè pou konnen, ni zye pou nou wè, ni zòrèy pou nou tande.
5 I have led you forty years in the wilderness. Your clothes have not worn out on you, and your shoes have not worn out on your feet.
Mwen te mennen nou pandan karantan nan dezè a. Rad nou yo pa t epwize sou nou, ni sandal nou yo pa t epwize nan pye nou.
6 You have not eaten bread, neither have you drunk wine or strong drink; that you may know that I am the LORD your God.
Nou pa t manje pen, ni nou pa t bwè bwason ki fò pou nou ta konnen ke Mwen menm, se Senyè a, Bondye nou an.
7 When you came to this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, came out against us to battle, and we struck them:
Lè nou te rive kote sa a, Sihon, wa Hesbon an avèk Og, wa Basan an, yo te sòti pou rankontre nou pou batay, men nou te bat yo.
8 and we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of the Manassites.
Nou te pran peyi pa yo a pou bay li kòm eritaj a Ribenit yo, a Gadit yo e a mwatye tribi a Manasit yo.
9 Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do.
Pou sa, kenbe pawòl akò sa yo pou fè yo, pou nou kapab reyisi nan tout sa ke nou eseye fè.
10 You stand this day all of you before the LORD your God; your heads, your tribes, your elders, and your officers, even all the men of Israel,
Nou vin kanpe la a jodi a, nou tout, devan SENYÈ, Bondye nou an: chèf nou yo, tribi nou yo, ansyen nou yo ak ofisye nou yo, tout mesye Israël yo,
11 your little ones, your wives, and your foreigner who is in the midst of your camps, from the one who cuts your wood to the one who draws your water;
timoun nou yo, madanm nou yo ak etranje ki demere nan kan nou yo, soti nan sila ki koupe bwa dife nou, jis rive nan sila ki rale dlo nou yo,
12 that you may enter into the covenant of the LORD your God, and into his oath, which the LORD your God makes with you this day,
pou nou kapab antre an akò avèk SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou sèman ke SENYÈ Bondye nou an, ap fè avèk ou jodi a,
13 so that he may establish you today as his people, and that he may your God, as he spoke to you and as he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
pou Li kapab etabli nou jodi a kòm pèp Li, e pou Li kapab devni Bondye nou, jis jan ke Li te pale nou an ak jan Li te sèmante a zansèt nou yo, a Abraham, Isaac, e a Jacob la.
14 Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath,
Alò, se pa avèk nou sèlman ke Mwen ap fè akò sila a avèk sèman sila a,
15 but with him who stands here with us this day before the LORD our God, and also with him who is not here with us this day
men avèk sila ki kanpe isit yo avèk nou jodi a nan prezans a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, e avèk sila ki pa la avèk nou jodi a
16 (for you know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the midst of the nations through which you passed;
(paske nou konnen kijan nou te viv nan peyi Égypte la ak kijan nou te pase nan mitan nasyon kote nou te pase yo;
17 and you have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them);
anplis, nou te wè abominasyon pa yo ak zidòl pa yo an bwa, wòch, ajan ak lò, ki te avèk yo);
18 lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turns away this day from the LORD our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; lest there should be among you a root that bears gall and wormwood;
pou pa t ap genyen pami nou jodi a ni gason, ni fanm, ni fanmi, ni tribi, ki gen kè ki vire kite SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou ale sèvi lòt dye a nasyon sa yo; pou pa vin gen pami nou yon rasin ki pote fwi pwazon anmè konsa.
19 and it happen, when he hears the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, "I shall have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart, to destroy the moist with the dry."
Pou l ta rive ke lè li tande pawòl a madichon sila a, li vin ògeye, e di: ‘Mwen va gen lapè menmlè mwen mache avèk kè di, pou m detwi tè wouze ansanm ak tè sèk.’
20 God will not be willing to forgive him, but then the anger of the LORD and his jealousy will burn against that man, and every curse that is written in this book shall rest on him, and the LORD will blot out his name from under heaven.
SENYÈ a p ap janm dakò pou padone li, men pito, lakòlè SENYÈ ak jalouzi Li va brile kont nonm sa a. Konsa, tout madichon ki ekri nan liv sa a, va vin rete sou li, e SENYÈ a va efase non li anba syèl la.
21 The LORD will set him apart to evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that is written in this book of the law.
Epi SENYÈ a va mete li apa pou mechanste l soti nan tout tribi Israël yo, selon tout madichon a akò ki ekri nan liv lalwa sila a.
22 The generation to come, your children who shall rise up after you, and the foreigner who shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses with which the LORD has made it sick;
“Alò, jenerasyon k ap vini an—fis nou ki leve apre nou yo, avèk etranje a ki sòti nan yon peyi lwen—lè yo wè toumant a peyi ak maladi avèk sila SENYÈ a te aflije li yo, yo va di:
23 and that the whole land of it is sulfur, salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor bears, nor any grass grows in it, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:
Tout teritwa li se souf avèk sèl, yon kote devaste kap brile nèt. Li pa simen menm, ni pwodwi anyen, li san zèb grandi ladann, tankou boulvèsman Sodome nan avèk Gomorrhe a. Li tankou Adma avèk Tseboïm ke SENYÈ a te boulvèse nan chalè Li avèk kòlè Li.
24 even all the nations shall say, "Why has the LORD done thus to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?"
Tout nasyon yo va di: ‘Poukisa SENYÈ a te fè sa a peyi sila a? Poukisa gwo kòlè sila a?’
25 Then men shall say, "Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt,
“Epi yo va reponn: ‘Akoz yo te abandone akò SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt yo a te fè avèk yo, lè Li te mennen yo sòti nan peyi Égypte la.’
26 and went and served other gods, and worshiped them, gods that they did not know, and that he had not given to them:
Yo te sèvi lòt dye yo e yo te adore yo, dye ke yo pa t konnen e ke Li pa t janm te ba yo.
27 therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land, to bring on it all the curse that is written in this book;
Pou sa, kòlè SENYÈ a te brile kont peyi a, pou mennen sou li tout madichon ki ekri nan liv sa a.
28 and the LORD rooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as at this day."
SENYÈ a te dechouke yo nan peyi pa yo a nan kòlè Li. Avèk gwo mekontantman, Li te rache yo soti nan peyi yo pou jete yo nan yon lòt peyi, jan li ye kounye a.”
29 The secret things belong to the LORD our God; but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.
Bagay sekrè yo apatyen a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Men bagay ki revele yo se pou nou menm avèk fis nou yo jis pou tout tan, pou nou kapab obsève tout pawòl lalwa sila yo.
