< Deuteronomy 7 >

1 Whanne thi Lord God hath lad thee in to the lond, in to which thou schalt entre to welde, and hath do awey many folkis bifor thee, Ethei, and Gergesei, and Ammorrey, Canenei, and Pherezei, Euey, and Jebusei; seuene folkis, of myche gretter noumbre than thou art, and strengere than thou;
Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pral fè nou antre nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou an. Li pral fè sèt nasyon ki gen plis moun pase nou, ki pi fò pase nou, kouri met deyò devan nou, ki vle di moun Et yo, moun Gigach yo, moun Amori yo, moun Kanaran yo, moun Perèz yo, moun Evi yo ak moun Jebis yo.
2 and thi Lord God hath bitake hem to thee, thou schalt smyte hem `til to deeth, thou schalt not make `with hem a boond of pees, nether thou schalt haue merci on hem,
Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pral lage yo nan men nou, nou pral bat yo. Lè sa a, se pou nou detwi yo nèt tankou yon ofrann pou Bondye nou an. Piga nou pase ankenn kontra ak yo. Piga nou gen pitye pou yo.
3 nether thou schalt felowschipe mariagis with him; thou schalt not yyue thi douyter to the sone `of hym, nether thou schalt take his douytir to thi sone;
Piga nou marye ak moun sa yo. Pa kite pitit fi nou marye ak pitit gason yo, ni pa kite pitit gason nou marye ak pitit fi yo.
4 for sche schal disceyue thi sone, that he sue not me, and that he serue more alien goddis; and the strong veniaunce of the Lord schal be wrooth, and schal do awei thee soone.
Paske y'a pran tèt pitit gason nou yo, y'a fè yo vire do ban mwen pou y' al sèvi lòt bondye. Si nou fè sa, Bondye va fache sou nou, l'a disparèt nou la pou la.
5 But rather thou schalt do these thingis to hem; destrie ye the auteris `of hem, and breke ye ymagis `of metal, and kitte ye doun wodis, and brenne ye grauun ymagis.
Men sa pou n' fè yo: Demoli tout lòtèl yo, kraze tout estati yo, rache tout poto Achera yo, boule tout zidòl yo.
6 For thou art an hooli puple to thi Lord God; thi Lord God chees thee, that thou be a special puple to hym, of alle puplis that ben on erthe.
N'a fè sa paske se yon pèp k'ap viv apa pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nou ye. Se nou menm Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te chwazi nan tout pèp ki sou latè pou li fè nou tounen yon pèp ki rele l' pa l'.
7 Not for ye ouercamen in noumbre alle folkis, the Lord is ioyned to you, and chees yow, sithen ye ben fewere than alle puplis;
Si, nan tout pèp ki sou latè, se nou menm Seyè a te pi pito, si li te chwazi nou, se pa paske nou te gen plis moun nan pèp nou an pase lòt yo. Okontrè, se nou ki te gen pi piti moun.
8 but for the Lord louede you, and kepte the ooth which he swoor to youre fadris; and he ledde you out in strong hond, and ayen bouyte you fro the hows of seruage, fro `the hows of Farao, kyng of Egipt.
Men, se paske Seyè a te renmen nou, epi li te vle kenbe pwomès li te fè zansèt nou yo. Se poutèt sa li delivre nou avèk fòs ponyèt li. Li fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip kote nou te tounen esklav la. Li wete nou anba pouvwa farawon an.
9 And thou schalt wite, that thi Lord God hym silf is a strong God, and feithful, and kepith couenaunt and mersi to hem that louen hym, and to hem that kepen hise comaundementis, in to a thousynde generaciouns;
Se pou nou rekonèt Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se sèl Bondye ki genyen, sèl Bondye k'ap toujou kenbe pawòl li. Wi, l'ap toujou kenbe kontra li pase a. L'ap toujou renmen moun ki renmen l', moun ki fè tou sa l' mande yo fè, de pitit an pitit, pandan mil jenerasyon.
10 and yeldith anoon to hem that haten hym, so that he destrie hem, and differr no lengere; restorynge anoon to hem that that thei disseruen.
Men, li p'ap manke pini moun ki rayi l'. Se moun sa yo menm l'ap touye, pa lòt moun ankò. Wi, li p'ap pran reta pou l' fè yo peye sa yo fè a.
11 Therfor kepe thou the comaundementis, and cerymonyes, and domes, whiche Y comaunde to thee to dai, that thou do.
Se poutèt sa, se pou nou swiv tout kòmandman, tout lòd ak tout prensip mwen mande nou jòdi a pou nou swiv.
12 If aftir that thou herist these domes, thou kepist, and doist tho, thi Lord God schal kepe to thee couenaunt, and mersi, which he swoor to thi fadris.
Si nou koute tou sa mwen mande nou la a, si nou kenbe yo nan tèt nou, si nou swiv yo pwen pa pwen, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va toujou kenbe kontra li te pase ak zansèt nou yo, l'ap toujou renmen nou jan li te fè sèman bay zansèt nou yo.
13 And he schal loue thee, and schal multiplie thee, and he schal blesse the fruyt of thi wombe, and the fruyt of thi lond, thi wheete, and vindage, oile, and droues of beestis, and the flockis of thi scheep, on the lond for which he swoor to thi fadris, that he schulde yyue it to thee.
L'a renmen nou, l'a beni nou, l'a fè nou peple. L'a ban nou anpil pitit. L'a voye benediksyon sou jaden nou, n'a gen anpil manje, anpil diven ak anpil lwil. Bèf nou yo va bay anpil pòte, mouton nou yo va fè anpil pitit. L'a fè tou sa pou nou nan peyi li te pwomèt zansèt nou yo l'ap ban nou an.
14 Thou schalt be blessid among alle puplis; noon bareyn of euer eithir kynde schal be at thee, as well in men, as in thi flockis.
Bondye ap beni nou plis pase tout lòt pèp yo. p'ap gen yon moun nan mitan nou, fanm kou gason, ki p'ap ka fè pitit. Konsa tou, p'ap gen yonn nan bèt nou yo, ni mal ni fenmèl, ki p'ap ka fè pitit.
15 The Lord schal do awei fro thee all ache, `ether sorewe; and he schal not brynge to thee the worste siknessis of Egipt, whiche thou knewist, but to alle thin enemyes.
Seyè a p'ap kite ankenn maladi tonbe sou nou. Li p'ap janm voye sou nou move epidemi nou te wè ki te tonbe sou moun peyi Lejip yo. L'ap kite sa pou tout moun ki pa vle wè nou yo.
16 And thou schalt `deuoure, that is, distrie, alle puplis, whiche thi Lord God schal yyue to thee; thin iye schal not spare hem, nethir thou schalt serue the goddis `of hem, lest thei ben in to the fallyng of thee.
Se pou nou disparèt tout pèp Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va lage nan men nou. Se pou nou san pitye pou yo. Piga nou fè sèvis pou bondye moun sa yo, paske sa ka fini mal pou nou.
17 If thou seist in thin herte, These folkis ben mo than Y, hou may Y do awei hem?
Si nou ta rive di nan kè nou: Nasyon sa yo gen plis moun pase nou. Ki jan pou n' fè pou n' pran peyi a nan men yo? wete lide konsa nan tèt nou.
18 `nyle thou drede, but haue thou mynde, what thingis thi Lord God dide to Farao, and alle Egipcians;
Nou pa bezwen pè yo. Chonje tou sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te fè farawon an ak tout peyi Lejip li a.
19 `he dide the gretteste veniaunces, whiche thin iyen sien, and miraclis and grete wondris, and the strong hond, and arm `holdun forth, that thi Lord God schulde lede thee out; so he schal do to alle puplis whiche thou dredist.
Chonje tout gwo malè nou te wè ak je nou, tout mèvèy ak tout mirak Seyè a te fè ak fòs ponyèt li ak gwo kouraj li pou l' fè nou soti kite peyi sa a. Seyè a pral fè menm jan an tou ak tout pèp nou pè yo.
20 Ferthermore and thi Lord God schal sende venemouse flies in to hem, til he do awei, and destrye alle men, that fledden thee, and thei schulen not mowe be hid.
Sa ki pi rèd ankò, l'ap voye yon bann tanwouan pou touye tou sa ki va chape anba men nou pou y' al kache pou nou.
21 Thou schalt not drede hem, for thi Lord is in the myddis of thee, grete God, and ferdful.
Nou pa bezwen pè moun sa yo menm. Seyè a, Bondye nou an, kanpe la avèk nou. Se yon Bondye ki gen anpil pouvwa, yon Bondye ki fè tout moun respekte l'.
22 He hym silf schal waste these naciouns in thi siyt, litil and litil, and bi partis; thou schalt not mow do awey `tho naciouns togidere, lest peraventure beestis of erthe be multiplied ayens thee;
Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va mete nasyon sa yo deyò devan nou, yonn apre lòt. Nou p'ap ka detwi yo tout yon sèl kou. Paske si nou fè l', bèt nan bwa ka anvayi peyi a, epi sa pa ta bon pou nou.
23 and thi Lord God schal yyue hem in thi siyt, and he schal sle hem, til thei be doon awey outerly.
Men, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pral lage yo nan men nou. L'ap fè yo pati kouri devan nou jouk n'a fin disparèt yo nèt.
24 And he schal bitake the kyngis `of hem in to thin hondis, and thou schalt destrie the names `of hem vndur heuene; noon schal mow ayenstonde thee, til thou al to-breke hem.
Seyè a pral mete wa yo anba pye nou. Nou pral touye yo, nou pral fè tout moun sou latè bliye non yo. Pesonn p'ap ka rete nou sou kous nou. Nou pral detwi yo tout.
25 Thou schalt brenne in fier the grauun ymagis `of hem; thou schalt not coueite the siluer and gold, of whiche tho ymagis ben maad, nether thou schalt take of tho ony thing to thee, lest thou offende therfor, for it is abhominacioun of thi Lord God.
N'a boule tout zidòl yo te taye nan bwa. Pa kite lò ak ajan ki kouvri zidòl yo mete move lanvi nan ke nou. Pa pran yo pou nou. Sa ka yon pèlen pou nou. Nou konnen bagay konsa se bagay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pa vle wè menm.
26 Nether thou schalt brynge ony thing of the idol in to thin hous, lest thou be maad cursid, as also that idol is; thou schalt wlate it as filthe, and thou schalt haue it as defoulyng, and filthis of abhomynacioun, for it is cursid.
Konsa tou, pa pran ankenn nan zidòl sa yo pou nou mete anndan lakay nou, pou menm madichon ki sou yo a pa tonbe sou nou tou. Se pou nou konsidere yo pou move bagay, pou vye bagay sal. Se bagay ki madichonnen, bagay ki fèt pou disparèt nèt.
