< Exodus 32 >

1 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mount, the people assembled themselves to Aaron, and said to him, Arise, make us gods which shall go before us: for [as for] this Moses, the man that brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.
Alò, lè pèp la te wè ke Moïse te fè reta sòti nan mòn nan, pèp la te rasanble vè Aaron e yo te di li: “Vini, fè pou nou yon dye ki va ale devan nou; pwiske, Moïse sila a, nonm ki te mennen nou sòti nan peyi Égypte la, nou pa konnen sa ki rive li.”
2 And Aaron said to them, Break off the golden ear-rings which [are] in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring [them] to me.
Aaron te di yo: “Chire retire zanno lò ki nan zòrèy a Madanm nou yo, fis nou yo, ak fi nou yo, e pote yo ban mwen.”
3 And all the people broke off the golden ear-rings which [were] in their ears, and brought [them] to Aaron.
Epi tout pèp la te chire zanno lò ki te nan zòrèy pa yo. Yo te pote yo bay Aaron.
4 And he received [them] at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
Li te pran yo nan men yo; li te fè desen li avèk yon zouti pou grave, e li te fonn li pou fè yon jèn towo. Konsa yo te di: “Sa se dye pa ou, O Israël, ki te mennen ou sòti nan peyi Égypte la.”
5 And when Aaron saw [it], he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To-morrow [is] a feast to the LORD.
Alò, lè Aaron te wè sa, li te bati yon lotèl devan li. Epi Aaron te fè yon pwoklamasyon e te di: “Demen va yon fèt pou SENYÈ a.”
6 And they rose early on the morrow, and offered burnt-offerings, and brought peace-offerings: and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
Epi nan jou ki te vini an, yo te leve bonè. Yo te ofri ofrann brile a, e yo te pote ofrann lapè yo. Konsa, pèp la te chita pou manje, pou bwè, e yo te leve pou jwe.
7 And the LORD said to Moses, Go, go down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted [themselves]:
Alò SENYÈ a te pale ak Moïse e te di: “Desann koulye a, paske pèp ou a, ke ou te mennen monte nan peyi Égypte la, gen tan vin konwonpi.
8 They have turned aside quickly from the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
Yo vire byen vit kite chemen ke Mwen te pase lòd ba yo a. Yo fè pou yo menm yon jèn towo fonn, yo adore li, yo fè sakrifis bay li, e yo di: ‘Sa se dye pa ou, O Israël, ki te mennen ou monte kite peyi Égypte la!’”
9 And the LORD said to Moses, I have seen this people, and behold it [is] a stiff-necked people:
SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Mwen wè pèp sa, e gade byen, se yon pèp tèt di.
10 Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.
Koulye a alò, kite Mwen sèl, pou kòlè Mwen kapab briye kont yo, e pou M kapab detwi yo; epi Mwen va fè nan ou menm yon gran nasyon.”
11 And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth from the land of Egypt, with great power, and with a mighty hand?
Men Moïse te priye SENYÈ a Bondye li a, e te di: “O SENYÈ poukisa kòlè ou briye kont pèp Ou a, ke Ou te fè sòti nan peyi Égypte la avèk gran pouvwa e avèk yon men pwisan an?
12 Why should the Egyptians speak and say, For evil did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.
Poukisa Ejipsyen yo ta dwe pale pou di: ‘Avèk mechanste Li te fè yo sòti, pou touye yo nan mòn yo e pou detwi yo sou fas tè a?’” “Vire kite kòlè Ou k ap briye a, e vire kite ide Ou sou entansyon Ou, pou fè pèp Ou mal la.
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel thy servants, to whom thou sworest by thine own self, and saidst to them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give to your seed, and they shall inherit [it] for ever.
Sonje Abraham, Isaac, ak Israël, sèvitè ou yo, ke Ou te sèmante pa Ou menm, pou di yo: ‘Mwen va miltipliye desandan nou yo tankou zetwal nan syèl yo, e tout peyi ke M te pale yo, Mwen va bay a desandan nou yo, e yo va eritye li jis pou tout tan.’”
14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do to his people.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te chanje ide li sou mal ke Li te di Li t ap fè a pèp Li a.
15 And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony [were] in his hand: the tables [were] written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other [were] they written.
Alò, Moïse te vire desann mòn nan avèk de tablèt temwayaj yo nan Men l; tablèt ki te ekri nan toude fas yo.
16 And the tables [were] the work of God, and the writing [was] the writing of God, graven upon the tables.
Tablèt yo se te zèv Bondye yo te ye. Ekriti la se te ekriti Bondye menm ki grave sou tablèt yo.
17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, [There is] a noise of war in the camp.
Alò, lè Josué te tande bwi a pèp la pandan yo t ap rele fò, li te di Moïse: “Gen son lagè nan kan an”.
18 And he said, [It is] not the voice of [them that] shout for mastery, neither [is it] the voice of [them that] cry for being overcome: [but] the noise of [them that] sing do I hear.
Men li te di yo: “Se pa son a yon kri viktwa, ni se pa son ke y ap pèdi batay; men se son chante ke m tande.”
19 And it came to pass as soon as he came nigh to the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses's anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables from his hands, and broke them beneath the mount.
Li te vin rive ke depi Moïse te pwoche kan an, li te wè jèn towo a ak tout dans yo. Konsa, kòlè te briye nan Moïse. Li te jete tablèt ki te nan men li yo atè, e li te kraze yo nan baz mòn nan.
20 And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt [it] in the fire, and ground [it] to powder, and strewed [it] upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink [of it].
Li te pran jèn towo ke yo te fè a; li te brile li avèk dife. Li te kraze l fè poud, e li te gaye li sou tout sifas dlo a. Konsa, li te fè fis Israël yo bwè li.
21 And Moses said to Aaron, What did this people to thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
Moïse te di a Aaron: “Kisa pèp sa te fè ou la a, pou ou ta mennen yon si tèlman gwo peche sou yo?”
22 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people that they [are set] on mischief.
Aaron te di: “Pa kite kòlè a mèt mwen briye. Ou konnen pèp sa a ou menm, ke yo toujou panche vè lemal.
23 For they said to me, Make us gods which shall go before us: for [as for] this Moses, the man that brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.
Paske yo te di mwen: ‘Fè yon dye pou nou ki va ale devan nou. Paske Moïse sila a, mesye ki te mennen nou monte sòti nan peyi Égypte la, nou pa konnen sa ki rive li.’”
24 And I said to them, Whoever hath any gold, let them break [it] off: So they gave [it] to me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
“Mwen te di yo: ‘Nenpòt moun ki gen nenpòt lò, ke yo chire retire li.’ Alò, yo te ban mwen li, mwen te jete li nan dife a, e ti towo sa a te parèt.”
25 And when Moses saw that the people [were] naked (for Aaron had made them naked to [their] shame, among their enemies: )
Alò, lè Moïse te wè ke pèp la te pèdi kontwòl nèt—paske Aaron te kite yo pèdi kontwòl pou yo te kapab devni yon rizib pami lènmi yo—
26 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who [is] on the LORD'S side? [let him come] to me. And all the sons of Levi assembled themselves to him.
Alò, Moïse te vin kanpe nan pòtay kan an, e li te di: “Nenpòt moun ki pou SENYÈ a vin kote mwen!” Epi tout fis Levi yo te rasanble kote li.
27 And he said to them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, [and] go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.
Li te di yo: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, chak moun nan nou mete nepe nou sou kwis nou. Ale tout kote pòtay sou pòtay nan kan an, e chak touye frè nou, chak zanmi nou, chak vwazen nou.”
28 And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
Konsa, fis a Levi yo te fè sa ke Moïse te enstwi yo a, e anviwon twa-mil moun nan pèp la te tonbe nan jou sa a.
29 For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to-day to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.
Alò Moïse te di: “Konsakre nou nan menm jou sa a bay SENYÈ a—paske chak moun te kont fis li, e kont frè li—pou Li kapab beni nou jodi a.”
30 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said to the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up to the LORD; it may be I shall make an atonement for your sin.
Nan jou pwochen a, Moïse te di a pèp la: “Nou pou kont nou te komèt yon gwo peche. Koulye a mwen ap monte vè SENYÈ a. Petèt mwen kapab twouve padon pou peche nou yo.”
31 And Moses returned to the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
Alò, Moïse te retounen vè Bondye, e te di: “Elas, pèp sa a komèt yon gwo peche. Yo te gen tan fè yon dye an lò pou yo menm.
32 Yet now, if thou wilt, forgive their sin: and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
Men koulye a, si Ou va padone, padone peche yo—e si non, souple efase mwen nan liv ke Ou te ekri a!”
33 And the LORD said to Moses, Whoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Nenpòt moun ki te peche kont Mwen, Mwen va efase li nan liv Mwen an.
34 Therefore now go, lead the people to [the place] of which I have spoken to thee: Behold, my angel shall go before thee: Nevertheless, in the day when I visit, I will visit their sin upon them.
Men ale koulye a, mennen pèp la kote Mwen te di ou a. Veye byen, zanj Mwen va ale devan ou. Malgre sa, nan jou ke Mwen va pini an, Mwen va pini yo pou peche yo a.”
35 And the LORD afflicted the people, because they made the calf which Aaron made.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te frape pèp la akoz sa yo te fè avèk jèn towo ke Aaron te fè a.
