Deuteronomy 4
1 And now, thou Israel, here the comaundementis and domes whiche Y teche thee, that thou do tho, and lyue, and that thow entre and welde the lond which the Lord God of youre fadris schal yyue to you.
Apre sa, Moyiz di pèp la: -Koulye a, nou menm pèp Izrayèl, se pou nou kenbe tout lòd ak tout prensip mwen te moutre nou yo. Se pou nou mache dapre lòd sa yo pou nou ka viv, pou nou ka antre nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, ap ban nou an.
2 Ye schulen not adde to the word which Y speke to you, nether ye schulen take awei `fro it; kepe ye the comaundementis of youre Lord God, which Y comaunde to you.
Piga nou mete, piga nou wete anyen sou sa mwen mande nou fè a. Se pou nou kenbe tout kòmandman Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan mwen te moutre nou yo a.
3 Youre iyen sien alle thingis whiche the Lord dide ayens Belphegor; how he alto brak alle the worschiperis `of hym fro the myddis of you.
Nou menm, nou te wè sa Seyè a te fè bò mòn Peyò a, lè li te touye tout moun nan mitan nou ki te al fè sèvis pou Baal sou mòn lan.
4 Forsothe ye that cleuen to youre Lord God lyuen alle `til in to present day.
Men, nou menm ki pa t' lage pye Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nou tout la byen vivan toujou.
5 Ye witen that Y tauyte you the comaundementis and riytfulnessis, as my Lord God comaundide to me; so ye schulen do tho in the lond whiche ye schulen welde,
Gade! Mwen te moutre nou tout lòd ak tout regleman, jan Seyè a, Bondye mwen an, te mande m' fè l' la, pou nou te ka viv dapre lòd sa yo nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou an.
6 and ye schulen kepe, and schulen fille in werk. For this is youre wisdom and vndurstondyng bifor puplis, that alle men here these comaundementis, and seie, Lo! a wise puple and vnderstondynge! a greet folk!
Se pou nou kenbe yo, se pou nou fè tou sa yo mande nou fè ladan yo. Paske, se konsa n'a fè lòt nasyon yo wè jan nou gen konprann, jan nou gen lespri. Lè y'a rive tande pale tout lòd sa yo, y'a di: Ala yon gwo pèp, papa! Pèp sa a gen tan gen konprann, yo gen tan gen lespri!
7 Noon other nacioun is so greet, `not in noumbre ether in bodili quantite, but in dignite, that hath Goddis neiyynge to it silf, as oure God is redi to alle oure bisechyngis.
Paske pa gen lòt nasyon, li te mèt gran kou l' gran, ki gen yon Bondye toupre yo, yon Bondye k'ap kanpe la avèk yo, tankou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, fè l' pou nou chak fwa nou rele l'.
8 For whi what other folk is so noble, that it hath cerymonyes and iust domes, and al the lawe which Y schal `sette forth to dai bifor youre iyen?
Pa gen lòt nasyon, li te mèt gran kou l' gran, ki gen bon lòd ak bon prensip pou regle tout bagay san patipri tankou lalwa mwen mete devan nou jòdi a.
9 Therfor kepe thi silf, and thi soule bisili; foryete thou not the wordis whiche thin iyen sien, and falle tho not doun fro thin herte, in alle the daies of thi lijf. Thou schalt teche tho thi sones and thi sones sones.
Tansèlman, veye kò nou! Atansyon pou nou pa janm bliye bagay nou te wè ak pwòp je nou, pou nou pa janm wete yo nan lide nou pandan tout lavi nou. Okontrè, se pou nou moutre pitit nou ak pitit pitit nou yo tout bagay sa yo.
10 Telle thou the day in which thou stodist bifor thi Lord God in Oreb, whanne the Lord spak to me, and seide, Gadere thou the puple to me, that it here my wordis, and lerne for to drede me in al tyme in which it lyueth in erthe, and teche hise sones.
Pa bliye jou nou te kanpe sou mòn Orèb la, devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Lè sa a, li te di mwen: Sanble tout pèp la pou m' ka fè yo tande pawòl mwen gen pou m' di yo, pou yo aprann respekte m' pandan tout lavi yo sou latè, lèfini pou yo moutre pitit yo fè menm bagay la tou.
11 And ye neiyiden to the `roote of the hille, that brente `til to heuene; and derknessis, and cloude, and myist weren therynne.
N'a di yo ki jan nou te pwoche bò pye mòn lan. Lè sa a, gwo flanm dife t'ap soti sou mòn lan, yo t'ap moute byen wo nan syèl la.
12 And the Lord spak to you fro the myddis of fier; ye herden the vois of hise wordis, and outirli ye sien no fourme.
Seyè a rete nan mitan dife a li pale ak nou. Se bri bouch li ase nou te tande ap pale.
13 And he schewide to you his couenaunt, which he comaundide, that ye schulden do, and `he schewide ten wordis, whiche he wroot in two tablis of stoon.
Seyè a te fè nou konnen kontra li te pase ak nou an. Li mande nou pou nou kenbe l'. Li te ekri dis kòmandman yo sou de wòch plat yo, li mande pou nou swiv yo.
14 And he comaundide to me in that tyme, that Y schulde teche you cerymonyes and domes, whiche ye owen to do in the lond whiche ye schulen welde.
Lè sa a, Seyè a pase m' lòd pou m' moutre nou tout lwa ak tout prensip nou gen pou nou swiv nan peyi kote nou pral antre a, peyi nou pral pran pou nou an.
15 Therfor kepe ye bisili youre soulis; ye sien not ony licnesse in the dai in which the Lord spak to you in Oreb, fro the myddis of the fier;
Veye kò nou, tande! Se pou byen nou wi! Lè Seyè a te pale ak nou nan mitan dife a, sou mòn Orèb la, nou pa t' wè anyen ki ta sanble ak yon bagay.
16 lest perauenture ye be disseyued and make to you a grauun licnesse, ether an ymage of male, ether of female;
Piga nou fè sa nou pa dwe fè. Piga n' al fè ankenn zidòl pou nou adore, kit li gen fòm gason, osinon fòm fanm,
17 a licnesse of alle beestis that ben on erthe, ether of bridis fleynge vndur heuene,
kit li gen fòm zannimo oswa fòm zwazo,
18 and of crepynge beestis that ben moued in erthe, ether of fischis that dwellen vndur the erthe in watris; lest perauenture,
kit li gen fòm bèt k'ap trennen sou vant yo osinon fòm pwason.
19 whanne thin iyen ben reisid to heuene, thou se the sonne, and moone, and alle the sterris of heuene, and be disseyued bi errour, and worschipe tho, `bi outermer reuerence, and onour, `bi ynner reuerence, `tho thingis whiche thi Lord God made of nouyt, in to seruyce to alle folkis that ben vndur heuene.
Konsa tou, lè nou leve je nou nan syèl la, nou wè solèy la, lalin lan, zetwal yo ak tout lòt bagay ki anwo nan syèl la. Pa kite yo vire tèt nou pou nou fè sèvis pou yo. Pa al mete ajenou devan yo. Bondye mete yo la pou sèvis tout moun ki sou latè.
20 Forsothe the Lord took you, and ledde out of the yrun furneys of Egipt, that he schulde haue a puple of eritage, as it is in `present dai.
Kanta nou menm, Seyè a te pran nou, li fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip ki te pou nou tankou yon gwo fou dife kote yo fonn fè, epi li fè nou tounen sa nou ye koulye a: yon pèp ki rele l' pa l'.
21 And the Lord was wrooth ayens me for youre wordis, and swoor that Y schulde not passe Jordan, and schulde not entre in to the beeste lond, which he schal yyue to you.
Men, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te fache sou mwen poutèt nou. Li fè sèman li p'ap kite m' janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, ni li p'ap kite m' mete pwent pye m' nan bon peyi li menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap fè nou kado a.
22 Lo! Y die in this erthe; Y schal not passe Jordan; ye schulen passe, and schulen welde the noble lond.
Se konsa, mwen menm, m'ap mouri bò isit la, mwen p'ap janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an. Men, nou menm, n'ap janbe lòt bò larivyè a, nou pral pran bon peyi sa a pou nou.
23 Be thou war, lest ony tyme thou foryete the couenaunt of thi Lord God, which he made with thee, and lest thou make to thee a grauun licness of tho thingis whiche the Lord forbeed to make.
Veye kò nou pou nou pa janm bliye kontra Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te pase ak nou an. Piga nou janm fè ankenn zidòl, ankenn pòtre bagay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te defann nou fè.
24 For thi Lord God is fier wastynge; `God, a feruent louyere.
Paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se yon Bondye ki fè jalouzi anpil, li tankou yon dife k'ap boule tout bagay kote l' pase.
25 If ye gendren sones, and sones of sones, and ye dwellen in the lond, and ye be disceyued, and make to you ony licnesse, and doen yuel bifor youre Lord God, that ye terren hym to greet wrathe,
Lè n'a gen pitit ak pitit pitit, lè n'a fin vye granmoun nan peyi a, piga nou fè sa nou pa t' dwe fè. Piga nou fè estati osinon pòtre ankenn bagay pou nou fè sèvis pou yo. Piga nou fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou nou fè l' fache.
26 Y clepe witnesses to dai heuene and erthe, `that is, ech resonable creature beynge in heuene and in erthe, that ye schulen perische soone fro the lond, which ye schulen welde, whanne ye han passid Jordan; ye schulen not dwelle long tyme therynne, but the Lord schal do awey you,
Si nou fè bagay konsa, men m'ap pran syèl la ak latè a pou temwen pou yo tande sa m'ap di nou jòdi a: N'ap rete konsa, n'ap disparèt nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou lòt bò larivyè Jouden an. Nou p'ap rete lontan nan peyi a, paske nou tout pral disparèt nèt.
27 and schal scatere `in to alle hethen men, and ye schulen leeue fewe among naciouns, to whiche the Lord schal lede you.
Seyè a pral gaye nou toupatou nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Se yon ti ponyen moun ase nan nou ki p'ap mouri nan peyi kote Seyè a pral mennen nou an.
28 And there ye schulen serue to goddis, that ben maad bi `the hond of men, to a tre and a stoon, that `seen not, nether heren, nether eten, nether smellen.
Lè n'a rive nan peyi sa yo, nou pral fè sèvis pou bondye moun fè ak men yo, pou zidòl fèt an bwa, osinon an wòch, zidòl ki pa ka wè, ki pa ka tande, ki pa ka manje, ki pa ka pran sant anyen.
29 And whanne thou hast souyt there thi Lord God, thou schalt fynde hym; if netheles thou sekist with al the herte, and with al the tribulacioun of thi soule.
Men, lè sa a, n'a pran chache Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Si nou chache l' ak tout kè nou, n'a jwenn li.
30 Aftir that alle thingis han founde thee, that ben biforseid, forsothe in the laste tyme, thou schalt turne ayen to thi Lord God, and thou schalt here his vois.
Men, lè n'a gen kè sere, lè tout bagay sa yo va rive nou vre, bout pou bout yon jou n'a tounen nan pye Seyè a, Bondye nou an. N'a koute tou sa l' t'ap di nou an.
31 For thi Lord God is merciful God; he schal not forsake thee, nethir he schal do awey outirli, nethir he schal foryete the couenaunt, in which he swoor to thi fadris.
Paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se yon Bondye ki gen bon kè, li p'ap lage nou, ni li p'ap detwi nou. Li p'ap janm bliye kontra li menm li te pase ak zansèt nou yo, kontra li te fè sèman l'ap toujou kenbe a.
32 Axe thou of elde daies that weren bifor thee, fro the day in which thi Lord God made of nouyt man on erthe, axe thou fro that oon ende of heuene `til to the tother ende therof, if sich a thing was doon ony tyme, ether if it was euere knowun,
Chache konnen sa ki te pase nan tan lontan, nan tan ki te la anvan nou te fèt, depi lè Bondye te mete moun sou latè. Ale toupatou sou latè, mande si yon gwo bagay konsa te janm rive. Eske yo janm tande yon gwo koze tankou koze sa a?
33 that a puple herde the vois of God spekynge fro the myddis of the fier, as thou herdist, and siest;
Eske janm gen yon pèp ki te tande Bondye rete nan mitan dife pou pale ak yo, jan nou menm nou te tande l' la, epi ki pa mouri apre sa?
34 if God `dide, that he entride, and took to him silf a folc fro the middis of naciouns, bi temptaciouns, myraclis, and grete wondris, bi batel, and strong hond, and arm holdun forth, and orrible siytis, bi alle thingis whiche youre Lord God dide for you in Egipt, `while thin iyen sien;
Eske te janm gen yon bondye ki te penmèt li al chache yon pèp nan mitan yon lòt pèp pou fè li tounen pèp pa li, yon bondye ki te janm fè tout mirak ak tout bèl bagay sa yo, yon bondye ki te janm goumen tout goumen sa yo ak fòs ponyèt li, ak gwo kouraj li epi ki te fè anpil bagay pou fè moun tranble jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te fè l' pou nou devan je nou nan peyi Lejip la?
35 that thou schuldist wite, that the Lord hym silf is God, and noon other is, outakun oon.
Se nou menm sèl Seyè a te fè wè tou sa pou nou te ka konnen se Seyè a ki sèl Bondye tout bon an, pa gen lòt ankò.
36 Fro heuene he made thee to here his vois, that he schulde teche thee; and in erthe he schewide to thee his grettiste fier, and thou herdist the wordis `of hym fro the myddis of the fier;
Li rete nan syèl la, li fè nou tande vwa l' pou l' te ka moutre nou anpil bagay. Sou latè menm, li fè nou wè yon gwo dife, epi li rete nan mitan dife a, li pale ak nou.
37 for he louyde thi fadris, and chees her seed aftir hem. And he ledde thee out of Egipt, and yede bifore in his greet vertu,
Li te renmen zansèt nou yo, li te chwazi pitit pitit yo apre yo, kifè li te fè yo santi li la ak yo, li fè yo wè gwo pouvwa li, li fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip.
38 that he schulde do awei grettiste naciouns, and strongere than thou, in thin entryng, and that he schulde lede thee ynne, and schulde yyue to thee the lond `of hem in to possessioun, as thou seest in `present day.
Lèfini, li fè yon bann nasyon ki pi gran, ki pi fò pase nou kouri mete deyò pou fè plas ban nou. Li fè nou antre nan peyi yo. Li ban nou yo pou yo rele nou pa nou, jan sa ye jouk jòdi a.
39 Therfor wite thou to dai, and thenke in thin herte, that the Lord him silfe is God in heuene aboue, and in erthe bynethe, and noon other is.
Bon. Koulye a, konprann sa byen. Pa janm bliye se Seyè a ki Bondye anwo nan syèl la ak isit la sou latè. Wi, se li menm, pa gen lòt.
40 Kepe thou hise heestis, and comaundementis, whiche Y comaunde to thee, that it be wel to thee, and to thi sones after thee, and that thou dwelle mych tyme on the lond, which thi Lord God schal yyue to thee.
Se pou nou swiv tout lòd ak tout kòmandman mwen ban nou jòdi a. Konsa, ni nou menm, ni tout pitit nou yo apre nou, n'a viv lontan ak kè kontan nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou pou rele nou pa nou pou tout tan.
41 Thanne Moises departide thre citees biyende Jordan at the eest coost,
Apre sa, Moyiz chwazi twa lavil lòt bò larivyè Jouden, sou bò solèy leve,
42 that he fle to tho, that sleeth his neighbore not wilfuli, and was not enemy bifore oon and `the tother dai, and that he mai fle to summe of these citees;
lavil kote moun gen dwa kouri al kache si li ta touye yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy li san li pa fè espre, san li pa janm gen anyen avè l'. Li gen dwa al kache kò l' nan yonn nan lavil sa yo pou yo pa touye l'.
43 Bosor in the wildirnesse, which is set in the feeldi lond, of the lynage of Ruben; and Ramoth in Galaad, which is in the lynage of Gad; and Golan in Basan, which is in the lynage of Manasses.
Pou moun branch fanmi Woubenn yo, se te lavil Bezè nan dezè ki anwo sou platon an. Pou moun branch fanmi Gad yo, se te lavil Ramòt nan zòn Galarad la. Pou moun fanmi Manase yo, se te lavil Golan nan peyi Bazan.
44 This is the lawe which Moises `settide forth bifor the sones of Israel,
Men lalwa Moyiz te mete devan moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
45 and these ben the witnessyngis, and cerymonyes, and domes, whiche he spak to the sones of Israel, whanne thei yeden out of Egipt,
Men kòmandman, lòd ak prensip Moyiz te ba yo apre yo te fin soti kite peyi Lejip.
46 biyende Jordan, in the valey ayens the temple of Phegor, in the lond of Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, that dwellide in Esebon, whom Moises killide. And the sones of Israel yeden out of Egipt, and weldiden `the lond of him,
Lè sa a, yo te deja rive lòt bò larivyè Jouden, sou bò solèy leve, nan fon ki anfas Bètpeyò a, nan peyi wa Siyon an. Siyon sa a te wa peyi Amori a, li te rete lavil Esbon. Men, Moyiz ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo te bat li apre yo te fin soti kite peyi Lejip la.
47 and the lond of Og, kyng of Basan, twei kyngis of Ammoreis, that weren biyende Jordan, at the rysyng of the sunne;
Yo pran peyi a nan men l'. Yo fè menm bagay la tou nan peyi Bazan, kote wa Og t'ap gouvènen an. De wa peyi Amori sa yo t'ap viv lòt bò larivyè Jouden, sou bò solèy leve.
48 fro Aroer which is set on the brenke of the stronde of Arnon, `til to the hil of Seon, which is Hermon;
Peyi yo te pran an te konmanse depi lavil Awoyè ki sou tèt falèz toupre larivyè Anon an, li rive jouk mòn Siryon. Yo rele mòn sa a mòn Emon tou.
49 thei weldiden al the pleyn biyende Jordan, at the eest coost, `til to the see of wildirnesse, and `til to the rootis of the hil of Phasga.
Yo te pran tou tout zòn Araba a, ki sou bò solèy leve larivyè Jouden an, rive lanmè Mouri a nan pye mòn Pisga.
