Deuteronomy 10
1 At that time Yahweh said to me, 'Carve two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to me on the mountain, and make an ark of wood.
Apre sa, Seyè a te di m': Taye de wòch plat tankou de premye yo. Fè yon bwat an bwa, mete yo ladan l'. Moute vin jwenn mwen sou mòn lan.
2 I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets that you broke, and you will put them in the ark.'
Mwen pral ekri sou wòch yo tou sa mwen te ekri sou wòch plat ou te kraze yo. Lèfini, w'a mete yo nan bwat la.
3 So I made an ark of acacia wood, and I carved two tablets of stone like the first, and I went up the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.
Se konsa, mwen fè yon bwat an bwa zakasya, mwen taye de wòch plat tankou de premye yo, epi mwen moute sou mòn lan ak wòch yo nan men m'.
4 He wrote on the tablets, like the first writing, the Ten Commandments which Yahweh had spoken to you on the mountain out of the middle of the fire on the day of the assembly; then Yahweh gave them to me.
Seyè a make sou wòch yo dis pawòl li te ekri premye fwa a, dis kòmandman Seyè a te ban nou antan li te nan mitan dife a, jou nou tout nou te reyini nan pye mòn lan. Apre sa li ban mwen yo.
5 I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the ark that I had made; there they are, as Yahweh commanded me.”
Mwen desann soti nan mòn lan. Mwen mete wòch plat yo nan bwat mwen te fè a, jan Seyè a te ban mwen lòd la, epi se la yo rete depi lè sa a.
6 (The people of Israel journeyed from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; Eleazar, his son, served in the priest's office in his place.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo kite pi Benèy-Jakan yo, yo pati pou Mosera. Se la Arawon te mouri. Se la tou yo antere l'. Se Eleaza, pitit li a, yo te mete prèt nan plas li.
7 From there they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of streams of water.
Yo kite kote yo te ye a, yo pati pou Goud Goda, epi yo rive Jobata, yon kote ki te gen anpil dlo.
8 At that time Yahweh chose the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, to stand before Yahweh to serve him, and to bless people in his name, as today.
Se lè sa a Seyè a te mete moun branch fanmi Levi yo apa pou yo reskonsab pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, pou yo ka kanpe devan l' fè sèvis pou li, pou yo ka beni pèp la nan non l', jan y'ap fè l' jouk koulye a.
9 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance of land with his brothers; Yahweh is his inheritance, as Yahweh your God spoke to him.)
Se poutèt sa, moun branch fanmi Levi yo pa t' resevwa ankenn pòsyon tè pou rele yo pa yo menm jan ak moun lòt branch fanmi yo paske se Seyè a ki tout byen yo, jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te di l' la.
10 “I stayed on the mountain as at the first time, forty days and forty nights. Yahweh listened to me that time also; Yahweh did not wish to destroy you.
Mwen menm, mwen rete karant jou, karant nwit sou mòn lan, jan mwen te fè l' premye fwa a. Fwa sa a ankò, Seyè a koute m', li te dakò pou l' pa detwi nou.
11 Yahweh said to me, 'Arise, go before the people to lead them on their journey; they will go in and possess the land that I swore to their ancestors to give to them.'
Lè sa a, li di m' konsa: Leve non. Pati, pran devan pèp la. Mennen yo al pran pou yo peyi mwen te sèmante m'ap bay zansèt yo a.
12 Now, Israel, what does Yahweh your God require of you, except to fear Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, and to worship Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
Koulye a, nou menm pèp Izrayèl, men sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mande nou: Se pou nou gen krentif pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Se pou nou swiv chemen li mete devan nou an. Se pou nou renmen l'. Se pou nou sèvi l' ak tout kè nou ak tout nanm nou.
13 to keep the commandments of Yahweh, and his statutes, which I am commanding you today for your own good?
Se pou nou mache dapre tout kòmandman ak tout lòd li yo. Se pou byen nou mwen ban nou yo jòdi a.
14 Behold, to Yahweh your God belongs heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is in them.
Gade non! Se pou Seyè a syèl la ak tou sa ki anwo nèt nan syèl la ye. Se pou li latè ak tou sa ki ladan l' lan ye.
15 Only Yahweh took pleasure in your fathers so as to love them, and he chose you, their descendants, after them, more than any of the other peoples, as he does today.
Men, pami tout ras moun ki sou latè yo, se zansèt nou yo li te pi pito, paske li te renmen yo. Apre yo, se nou menm, pitit yo, li pi pito nan mitan tout lòt ras moun, jan sa ye jouk koulye a.
16 Therefore circumcise the foreskin of your heart, and be stubborn no longer.
Se poutèt sa, louvri kè nou nèt bay Seyè a. Sispann fè wòklò ak li,
17 For Yahweh your God, he is God of gods and Lord of masters, the great God, the mighty one and the fearsome one, who favors no one and takes no bribes.
paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se li menm ki Bondye anwo tout bondye, se li menm ki chèf sou tout chèf. Li gen pouvwa, li gen fòs, li fè moun respekte l'. Li pa nan paspouki, li pa kite yo achte figi l' avèk kado y'ap ofri ba li.
18 He executes justice for the fatherless and widow, and he shows love for the foreigner by giving him food and clothing.
L'ap defann kòz timoun ki san papa yo ak kòz fanm ki pèdi mari yo. Li renmen moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan pèp li a, li ba yo manje pou yo manje ak rad pou yo mete sou yo.
19 Therefore love the foreigner; for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
Se pou nou renmen moun lòt nasyon sa yo tou paske yon lè se sa nou te ye nan peyi Lejip la.
20 You will fear Yahweh your God; him will you worship. To him you must cling, and by his name will you swear.
Se pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ase pou nou gen krentif. Se li menm sèlman pou nou sèvi. Pa janm lage l'. Se nan non l' ase pou nou fè sèman.
21 He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and fearsome things, which your eyes have seen.
N'a fè lwanj li, se li menm ki Bondye nou. Nou te wè ak je nou tout gwo bagay ak bèl mèvèy li te fè pou nou.
22 Your fathers went down into Egypt as seventy persons; now Yahweh your God has made you as many as the stars of the heavens.
Lè zansèt nou yo te desann nan peyi Lejip, yo te swasanndis moun sèlman. Koulye a, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, fè nou vin anpil tankou zetwal nan syèl la.
