Exodus 14
1 Now YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
2 "Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and camp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall camp opposite it by the sea.
“Di fis Israël yo pou yo vire fè bak, e fè kan devan Pi-Hahiroth antre Migdol ak lanmè a. Nou va fè kan devan Baal-Tsephon, anfas li, bò kote lanmè a.
3 Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, 'They are wandering in the land. The wilderness has boxed them in.'
Paske Farawon va di de fis Israël yo: ‘Y ap mache byen egare nan peyi a; dezè a gen tan fèmen yo ladann.’
4 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he will pursue them. And I will gain glory because of Pharaoh and because of all his army, and the Egyptians shall know that I am YHWH." And they did so.
Konsa Mwen va andisi kè Farawon e li va kouri dèyè yo. Epi Mwen va onore pa Farawon avèk tout lame li a, e Ejipsyen yo va vin konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.” Se konsa yo te fè.
5 And when the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people, and they said, "What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?"
Lè wa Égypte la te avèti ke pèp la te sove ale, Farawon avèk sèvitè li yo te vin gen yon chanjman kè anvè pèp la. Yo te di: “Kisa sa ye nou fin fè la a, ke nou kite Israël ale pou kite sèvis nou yo?”
6 Then he made ready his chariot, and took his army with him;
Alò, li te prepare cha li, e te pran pèp li a avèk li.
7 and he took six hundred select chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and officers over all of them.
Epi li te pran sis-san cha byen chwazi, ansanm ak tout lòt cha an Égypte yo avèk gwo chèf sou yo tout.
8 And YHWH hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; and the children of Israel were going out triumphantly.
SENYÈ a te andisi kè Farawon, wa Égypte la, e li te kouri dèyè fis Israël yo. Paske se ak gwo kouraj ke Israël te soti.
9 And the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh and his horsemen and his army, and overtook them camping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal Zephon.
Konsa, Ejipsyen yo te kouri dèyè yo avèk tout cheval yo ak cha Farawon yo, chevalye li yo, avèk lame li, e yo te vin parèt sou yo kanpe bò kote lanmè a, akote Pi-Hihroth, anfas Baal-Tsephon.
10 When Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and look, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they were very afraid. So the children of Israel cried out to YHWH.
Pandan Farawon t ap pwoche, fis Israël yo te gade, e vwala, Ejipsyen yo t ap mache dèyè yo. Yo te vin pè anpil, epi fis Israël yo te kriye fò bay SENYÈ a.
11 And they said to Moses, "Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt?
Alò yo te di a Moïse: “Èske se paske pa gen tonm an Égypte ke ou mennen nou pati pou mouri nan dezè a? Poukisa ou te aji avèk nou konsa, pou fè nou sòti an Égypte?
12 Isn't this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, 'Leave us alone so that we may serve the Egyptians?' For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness."
Èske se pa pawòl ke nou te pale ou an Égypte la lè nou te di: ‘Pa deranje nou pou nou ka sèvi Ejipsyen yo?’ Paske li t ap pi bon pou nou pou sèvi Ejipsyen yo pase pou nou ta mouri nan dezè a.”
13 But Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid, stand still, and see the salvation of God, which he will work for you today, for the Egyptians you see today, you will never, ever see again.
Men Moïse te di a pèp la: “Pa pè anyen! Kanpe la pou wè delivrans SENYÈ a va acheve pou nou jodi a. Paske Ejipsyen yo ke nou wè jodi a, nou p ap wè yo ankò jiska jamè.
14 YHWH will fight for you, and you must be still."
SENYÈ a va goumen pou nou pandan nou rete an silans.”
15 Then YHWH said to Moses, "Why are you crying out to me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward.
Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Poukisa w ap kriye ban Mwen konsa? Di pèp la avanse.
16 And as for you, lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, and the children of Israel will go through the midst of the sea on dry ground.
Epi pou ou menm, leve baton ou an anlè. Lonje men ou sou lanmè a pou fann li. Konsa, fis Israël yo va pase nan mitan lanmè a sou tè sèch.
17 And as for me, look, I am going to harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them, and I will receive glory over Pharaoh and all his army, his chariots and his horsemen.
Pou Mwen, gade byen, Mwen va fè kè Ejipsyen yo di pou yo kouri antre dèyè yo. Konsa, Mwen va jwenn onè sou Farawon an avèk tout lame li ak cha li yo avèk kavalye li yo.
18 Then the Egyptians will know that I am YHWH, when I receive glory over Pharaoh, his chariots and his horsemen."
Alò, Ejipsyen yo va vin konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè Mwen vin onore pa Farawon, pa cha li yo, ak kavalye li yo.”
19 And the angel of God who was going in front of the camp of Israel moved and went behind them, and the pillar of cloud moved from in front of them and stood behind them.
Zanj Bondye a ki t ap prale devan kan Israël la te vin deplase e te kanpe dèyè yo; epi pilye nwaj la te deplase kite devan yo, pou te kanpe dèyè yo.
20 So it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. Thus it was a cloud and darkness and it lit up the night so that the one did not come near the other all night.
Alò li te vin divize kan Égypte la ak kan Israël la. Te gen nwaj la ansanm avèk tenèb la, men li te bay limyè nan nwit lan. Konsa youn pa t pwoche lòt pandan tout nwit lan.
21 Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and YHWH pushed the sea back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea into dry land, so the waters were divided.
Alò Moïse te lonje men l sou lanmè a; epi SENYÈ a te bale lanmè a pa yon van lès byen fò tout lannwit. Li te fè lanmè a vin tounen tè sèch, e dlo a te vin fann.
22 Then the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right and on their left.
Fis Israël yo te pase nan mitan lanmè a sou tè sèch, e dlo a te vin tankou yon miray pou yo sou men dwat yo ak sou men goch yo.
23 And the Egyptians pursued and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all of Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
Alò, Ejipsyen yo te vin kouri dèyè yo, e tout cheval Farawon, avèk cha li yo, avèk kavalye li yo te antre kouri dèyè yo nan mitan lanmè a.
24 And it happened, in the morning watch, that YHWH looked down on the Egyptian camp through the pillar of fire and cloud and threw the camp into confusion.
A la vèy nan maten, SENYÈ a te gade anba sou lame Ejipsyen yo, sou pilye a dife avèk nwaj yo, e Li te mennen lame Ejipsyen an nan yon gwo konfizyon.
25 And he bound their chariot wheels so that they drove them with difficulty. And the Egyptians said, "Let's flee from before Israel, for YHWH fights for them against the Egypt."
Li te retire wou cha yo, e yo te mal a kondwi. Konsa, Ejipsyen yo te di: “Annou sove ale kite Israël, paske SENYÈ a ap goumen pou yo kont Ejipsyen yo.”
26 Then YHWH said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea, so that the waters may flow back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen."
Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Lonje men ou sou lanmè a pou dlo a kab retounen vin sou Ejipsyen yo, sou cha yo, ak sou kavalye yo.”
27 So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its normal state at daybreak. Now the Egyptians were trying to escape from it, but YHWH shook off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
Alò, Moise te lonje men li sou lanmè a, e lanmè a te retounen nan eta nòmal li nan granmmaten, pandan Ejipsyen yo t ap sove ale tou kontra li. Konsa, SENYÈ a te boulvèse Ejipsyen yo nan mitan lanmè a.
28 Then the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, the entire army of Pharaoh that had followed them into the sea. None of them survived.
Dlo a te retounen e te kouvri cha yo avèk kavalye yo, e menm tout lame Farawon ki te antre nan lanmè a dèyè yo. Pa t menm gen youn nan yo ki te rete.
29 But the children of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
Men fis Israël yo te mache sou tè sèch pase nan mitan lanmè a, e dlo a te vin tankou yon mi pou yo ni sou men dwat yo ni sou men goch yo.
30 Thus YHWH saved Israel that day from the power of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te delivre Israël nan jou sa a nan men a Ejipsyen yo, e Israël te wè Ejipsyen yo ki te mouri sou bò lanmè a.
31 When Israel saw the great power which YHWH used against the Egyptians, then the people feared YHWH, and they believed God and his servant Moses.
Lè Israël te wè gran pwisans ke SENYÈ a te sèvi kont Ejipsyen yo, tout Pèp la te krent SENYÈ a, e yo te kwè nan SENYÈ a ak sèvitè li a, Moïse.
