< Numbers 23 >
1 And Balaam seide to Balaach, Bilde thou here to me seuene auteris, and make redi so many caluys, and rammes of the same noumbre.
Alò, Balaam te di a Balak: “Bati sèt lotèl pou mwen isit la, e prepare sèt towo pou mwen isit la.”
2 And whanne he hadde do bi the word of Balaam, thei puttiden a calf and a ram to gidere on the auter.
Balak te fè ojis sa ke Balaam te pale a. Balak avèk Balaam te ofri yon towo avèk yon belye sou chak lotèl.
3 And Balaam seide to Balaach, Stond thou a litil while bisidis thi brent sacrifice, while Y go, if in hap the Lord meete me; and Y schal `speke to thee what euer thing he schal comaunde.
Balaam te di a Balak: “Kanpe bò kote ofrann brile pa w la, e mwen va ale. Petèt SENYÈ a va vin rankontre m, e nenpòt sa ke Li montre mwen, mwen va di ou li.” Konsa, li te ale kote yon ti mòn ki pa t gen anyen sou li.
4 And whanne he hadde go swiftli, God cam to hym; and Balaam spak to hym, and seide, Y reiside seuene auteris, and Y puttide a calf and a ram aboue.
Bondye te rankontre Balaam, e li te di Li: “Mwen te ranje sèt lotèl yo, e mwen te ofri yon towo avèk yon belye sou chak lotèl.”
5 Forsothe the Lord `puttide a word in his mouth, and seide, Turne ayen to Balaach, and thou schalt speke these thingis.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te mete yon pawòl nan bouch Balaam. Li te di: “Retounen kote Balak. Ou va pale konsa.”
6 He turnede ayen, and fond Balach stondynge bisidis his brent sacrifice, and alle the princes of Moabitis.
Konsa, li te retounen kote li. E gade byen, Balak te kanpe bò kote ofrann brile li a; li menm avèk tout chèf Moab yo.
7 And whanne his parable `was takun, he seide, Balaach, the kyng of Moabitis, brouyte me fro Aran, fro the `hillis of the eest; and he seide, Come thou and curse Jacob; haaste thou, and greetli curse thou Israel.
Balaam te pran diskou li, e te di: “Depi nan Aram, Balak te mennen m, wa Moab ki soti nan mòn Lès yo. ‘Vin modi Jacob pou mwen. Vin denonse Israël!’
8 How schal Y curse whom God cursid not? bi what resoun schal Y `haue abhomynable whom God `hath not abhomynable?
Kijan mwen kapab modi, lè Bondye pa t modi? Epi kijan mwen kapab denonse sila ke SENYÈ a pa t denonse?
9 Fro the hiyeste flyntis Y schal se hym, and fro litle hillis Y schal biholde hym; the puple schal dwelle aloone, and it schal not be arettid among hethene men.
“Jan mwen konn wè li soti anwo nan pwent wòch yo, e mwen gade li depi sou kolin yo. Gade byen, yon pèp ki rete apa, ki p ap kab konte pami nasyon yo.
10 Who may noumbre the dust, that is, kynrede, of Jacob, and knowe the noumbre of the generacioun of Israel? My lijf die in the deeth of iust men, and my laste thingis be maad lijk hem!
Kilès ki kab konte pousyè a Jacob, oswa konte menm yon ka an Israël? Kite mwen mouri lanmò a jis yo, pou lafen pa mwen an tankou pa li.”
11 And Balaach seide to Balaam, What is this that thou doist? Y clepide thee, that thou schuldist curse myn enemyes, and ayenward thou blessist hem.
Konsa, Balak te di a Balaam: “Kisa ou te fè m konsa? Mwen te pran ou pou modi lènmi mwen yo, e gade byen, ou te vrèman beni yo!”
12 To whom Balaam answeride, Whether Y may speke othir thing no but that that the Lord comaundith?
Li te reponn: “Èske mwen pa oblije fè atansyon pou pale sa ke SENYÈ a mete nan bouch mwen?”
13 Therfor Balaach seide to Balaam, Come with me in to anothir place, fro whennus thou se a part of Israel, and mayst not se al; fro thennus curse thou hym.
Alò Balak te di li: “Souple, vin avèk mwen nan yon lòt kote pou ou ka wè yo. Malgre w ap wè sèlman ti bout a dènye pwent lan, e ou p ap wè tout a yo. Modi yo pou mwen depi la.”
14 And whanne he hadde led Balaam in to an hiy place, on the cop of the hil of Phasga, he bildide seuene auteris to Balaam, and whanne calues and rammes weren put aboue,
Konsa, li te pran li rive nan chan Tsophim nan, nan pwent Mòn Pigsa a. Li te bati sèt lotèl e li te ofri yon towo avèk yon belye sou chak lotèl.
15 he seide to Balaach, Stonde here bisidis thi brent sacrifice, while Y go.
Konsa, li te di a Balak: “Kanpe bò kote ofrann brile ou a, pandan mwen menm, mwen ap rankontre SENYÈ a soti lòtbò.”
16 And whanne the Lord hadde `come to him, and hadde put `a word in his mouth, he seide, Turne ayen to Balach, and thou schalt seie these thingis to hym.
Alò, SENYÈ a te rankontre Balaam e Li te mete yon pawòl nan bouch li. Li te di li: “Retounen jwenn Balak, e konsa ou va pale.”
17 He turnyde ayen, and foond Balach stondynge bisidis his brent sacrifice, and the princis of Moabitis with hym. To whom Balach seide, What spak the Lord?
Li te vin kote li, e gade byen, li te kanpe bò kote ofrann brile pa li a, epi chèf Moab yo te avèk li. Konsa, Balak te di li: “Kisa SENYÈ a te pale a?”
18 And whanne his parable `was takun, he seide, Stonde, Balach, and herkene; here, thou sone of Sephor. God is not `as a man,
Alò, li te pran diskou li. Li te di: “Leve ou menm, O Balak, pou tande! Ban m zòrèy ou, O fis a Tsippor!
19 that he lye, nethir he is as the sone of a man, that he be chaungid; therfor he seide, and schal he not do? he spak, and schal he not fulfille?
Bondye se pa yon nonm ke li ye pou L ta bay manti, ni fis a yon nonm pou L ta repanti. Èske Li pa t pale, e èske Li p ap fè l vrè?
20 Y am brouyt to blesse, Y may not forbede blessyng.
Gade byen, mwen te resevwa lòd pou beni. Lè se Li menm ki beni, alò, mwen p ap kab revoke sa.
21 Noon idol is in Jacob, nethir symylacre is seyn in Israel; his Lord God is with hym, and the sown of victorie of kyng is in hym.
Li pa t wè malè nan Jacob, ni Li pa t wè twoub nan Israël. SENYÈ a, Bondye li a avè l, epi gran vwa a yon wa pami yo.
22 The Lord God ledde hym out of Egipt, whos strengthe is lijk an vnicorn;
Bondye mennen yo sòti an Égypte. Li pou yo tankou kòn sou bèf mawon.
23 fals tellyng bi chiteryng of bryddis, `ethir idolatrie, is not in Jacob, nethir fals dyuynyng is in Israel. In his tymes it schal be seide to Jacob and Israel, What the Lord hath wrought!
Paske, nanpwen wanga kont Jacob, ni pa gen divinasyon kont Israël. Nan tan etabli a, li va pale a Jacob, e a Israël de sa Bondye te fè a!
24 Lo! the puple schal rise to gidere as a lionesse, and schal be reisid as a lioun; the lioun schal not reste, til he deuoure prey, and drynke the blood of hem that ben slayn.
Gade byen, yon pèp ki leve tankou yon manman lyon, tankou yon lyon li leve li menm. Ni li p ap kouche jiskaske li fin devore viktim nan, pou l bwè san a sila li touye a.”
25 And Balach seide to Balaam, Nether curse thou, nether blesse thou hym.
Alò, Balak te pale a Balaam: “Pa modi yo ditou, ni pa beni yo ditou!”
26 And he seide, Whether Y seide not to thee, that what euer thing that God comaundide to me, Y wolde do this?
Men Balaam te reponn a Balak: “Èske mwen pa t di ou, ‘Nenpòt sa ke SENYÈ a pale, se sa mwen oblije fè’?”
27 And Balach seide to hym, Come, and Y schal lede thee to an other place, if in hap it plesith God that fro thennus thou curse hym.
Alò Balak te di a Balaam: “Souple, vini; mwen va mennen ou yon lòt kote. Petèt li va agreyab a Bondye pou ou modi yo depi kote sa a.”
28 And whanne Balaach hadde led hym out on the `cop of the hil of Phegor, that biholdith the wildirnesse,
Konsa, Balak te pran Balaam vè tèt mòn Peor ki domine tout dezè a.
29 Balaam seide to hym, Bilde here seuene auteris to me, and make redi so many caluys, and rammes of the same noumbre.
Balaam te di a Balak, “Bati sèt lotèl pou mwen isit la, e prepare sèt towo ak sèt belye pou mwen isit la.”
30 Balaach dide as Balaam seide, and he puttide caluys and rammes, bi alle auteris.
Balak te fè jan ke Balaam te di a, e li te ofri yon towo avèk yon belye sou chak lotèl.
