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;
“Lè SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, mennen nou vini nan peyi kote nou ap antre pou posede a, e chase devan nou anpil lòt nasyon, Etyen yo, Gigachyen yo, Amoreyen yo, avèk Kanaaneyen yo, Perezit yo, Evyen yo, ak Jebizyen yo, sèt nasyon ki pi gran e ki pi pwisan ke nou 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,
epi lè SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, delivre yo devan nou e nou fin bat yo, alò, nou va detwi yo nèt. Nou p ap fè okenn akò avèk yo e nou p ap montre yo okenn favè.
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;
Anplis, nou p ap marye avèk yo. Nou pa pou bay fi nou yo bay fis pa yo, ni nou p ap pran fi pa yo pou fis nou 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 yo va detounen fis nou yo lwen de sèvi Mwen, pou sèvi lòt dye yo. Konsa, kòlè SENYÈ a va limen kont nou, e Li va detwi nou byen vit.
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 se konsa nou va fè yo: nou va chire lotèl yo, kraze pilye sakre yo, koupe an mòso tout poto Ashera yo, e brile imaj taye yo avèk dife.
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.
Paske nou se yon pèp ki sen a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te chwazi nou kòm yon pèp ki pou pwòp posesyon pa li pami tout pèp ki sou fas latè yo.
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;
“SENYÈ a pa t plase lanmou Li sou nou ni chwazi nou akoz ke nou te plis an kantite ke tout lòt pèp yo, paske nou te pi piti pase tout pèp yo,
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 akoz SENYÈ a te renmen nou e te kenbe sèman ke Li te fè a zansèt nou yo, SENYÈ a te mennen nou sòti pa yon men pwisan, e te peye ranson nou soti nan kay esklavaj la, soti nan men Farawon, wa Égypte la.
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;
“Konsa, konnen ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, se Li ki Dye a, Bondye ki fidèl la, ki kenbe akò Li ak lanmou dous Li pou jis rive nan mil jenerasyon avèk sila ki renmen Li yo e ki kenbe kòmandman Li yo,
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 ki rekonpanse sila ki rayi Li yo devan figi yo, pou detwi yo. Li p ap fè reta avèk sila ki rayi Li a. Li va rekonpanse li devan figi li.
11 Therfor kepe thou the comaundementis, and cerymonyes, and domes, whiche Y comaunde to thee to dai, that thou do.
“Pou sa, nou va kenbe kòmandman yo, lwa avèk jijman ke Mwen ap kòmande nou yo jodi a, pou nou fè.
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.
“Epi li va vin rive ke akoz nou te koute jijman sa yo, nou te kenbe e te fè yo, ke SENYÈ Bondye nou an, va kenbe nou avèk akò Li ak lanmou dous ke Li te sèmante vè 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.
Li va renmen nou, beni nou, e fè nou vin miltipliye. Li va, osi, beni fwi a vant nou, fwi a tè nou, e diven nèf ak lwil nou, kwasans a twoupo nou, avèk jenn bann mouton nou, nan peyi ke Li te sèmante a zansèt nou yo pou bannou.
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.
Nou va beni plis ke tout pèp. P ap gen ni mal, ni femèl k ap esteril pami nou ni pami bèt nou yo.
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.
“Senyè a va retire pami nou tout maladi; epi Li pa p mete sou nou okenn nan move maladi Égypte ke nou te konnen yo, men Li va mete yo sou tout sila ki rayi 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.
Nou va devore tout pèp ke SENYÈ Bondye nou an, va livre bannou. Zye nou p ap bay yo pitye, ni nou p ap sèvi dye pa yo, paske sa ta yon pèlen pou nou.
17 If thou seist in thin herte, These folkis ben mo than Y, hou may Y do awei hem?
“Si nou ta di nan kè nou: ‘Nasyon sa yo pi gran ke nou; kijan mwen kapab chase yo?’
18 `nyle thou drede, but haue thou mynde, what thingis thi Lord God dide to Farao, and alle Egipcians;
nou pa pou pè yo. Nou va byen sonje sa ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te fè Farawon ak tout Égypte:
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.
Nou te wè avèk zye nou gwo eprèv, sign avèk mèvèy, men pwisan avèk bwa lonje pa sila ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te mennen nou sòti. Konsa, SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va fè ak tout pèp ke nou konn 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.
“Anplis, SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va voye gèp kont yo, jiskaske tout sila ki te rete kache yo vin mouri.
21 Thou schalt not drede hem, for thi Lord is in the myddis of thee, grete God, and ferdful.
Nou pa pou pè yo, paske SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, nan mitan nou, yon gran Bondye ki mèvèye.
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;
“SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va netwaye retire nasyon sa yo devan nou mòso pa mòso. Nou p ap kab fini avèk yo vit yon sèl kou, paske bèt sovaj yo ta vin peple twòp 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 SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va livre yo devan nou, e Li va jete yo nan gran konfizyon jiskaske yo vin detwi.
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.
Li va livre wa yo nan men nou pou nou fè non yo peri anba syèl la. Nanpwen yon moun ki kab kanpe devan nou jiskaske nou fin detwi yo nèt.
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.
“Imaj a dye pa yo, nou va brile yo avèk dife. Nou p ap anvi ni ajan ni lò ki sou yo, ni pran yo pou nou menm, sinon, sa va devni yon pèlen pou nou; paske se yon abominasyon a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
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.
Nou p ap fè antre yon abominasyon konsa lakay nou, oswa tankou li, nou va vin anba madichon. Rayi li nèt e deteste li, paske li se yon bagay ki anba madichon.”
