< 1 Istwa 5 >

1 Men moun branch fanmi Woubenn, premye pitit Izrayèl la. Se Woubenn ki te premye pitit gason, men li te pèdi dwa premye pitit li paske li te kouche ak yonn nan madanm papa l' yo. Se pitit Jozèf yo, yon lòt pitit Izrayèl, yo te bay dwa premye pitit la. Tansèlman, yo pa t' pote non Jozèf la sou rejis tankou premye pitit.
And the sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel—for he was the first-born; but, when the defiled his father's bed, was his birthright given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: so that the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the first-birth.
2 Lèfini, se branch fanmi Jida a ki te vin pi fò. Se li menm ki bay yon chèf pou gouvènen tout branch fanmi yo. Men tout jan, se Jozèf yo te bay dwa premye pitit la.
For Judah became the mightiest of his brothers, and the prince descended from him: while the first-birthright belonged to Joseph, —
3 Woubenn, pi gran nan pitit gason Izrayèl yo, te gen kat pitit gason: Enòk, Palou, Ezwon ak Kami.
The sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel were, Chanoch, and Pallu, Chezron, and Carmi.
4 Joèl te papa Chemaja, Chemaja te papa Gòg, Gòg te papa Chimeyi,
The sons of Joel: Shema'yah his son, Gog his son, Shim'i his son,
5 Chimeyi te papa Mika, Mika te papa Reaja, Reaja te papa Baal.
Michah his son, Reayah his son, Ba'al his son,
6 Baal te papa Bera, yonn nan chèf fanmi Woubenn yo. Se li menm Tiglat-Pilesè, wa peyi Lasiri a, te depòte.
Beerah his son, whom Tilgath-pilneesser the king of Assyria carried into exile: he was the prince of the Reubenites.
7 Men lis lòt chèf fanmi Woubenn yo dapre rejis kote yo te ekri non yo. N'ap konmanse ak pi ansyen an. Te gen Jeyèl, Zakari,
And his brethren by their families, according to their genealogy after their generations, were, the chief, Je'iel, and Zecharyahu,
8 Bela, pitit Aza, pitit pitit Chema nan branch fanmi Joèl. Se yo ki te rete nan zòn Awoyè, rive Nebo ak Baal Meon sou nan nò.
And Bela' the son of 'Azaz, the son of Shema', the son of Joel, who dwelt in 'Aro'er, and as far as Nebo and Ba'al-me'on;
9 Yo te gen anpil mouton ak kabrit nan tout peyi Galarad la. Se konsa yo pran tout peyi a depi bò dezè a rive jouk bò larivyè Lefrat bò solèy leve.
And to the eastward he dwelt as far as the entrance of the wilderness from the river Euphrates; because their cattle were numerous in the land of Gil'ad.
10 Sou rèy wa Sayil, moun Woubenn yo atake moun Aga yo. Yo bat yo, yo pran tout tè moun yo ki sou bò solèy leve nan peyi Galarad.
And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarenes, who fell by their hand; and they dwelt in their tents in the whole front of the land to the east of Gil'ad.
11 Branch fanmi Gad la te rete sou bò nò moun branch fanmi Woubenn yo, nan peyi Bazan, rive Salka sou bò solèy leve.
And the children of Gad dwelt alongside of them, in the land of Bashan as far as Salchah.
12 Joèl te vin an premye. Apre li te gen Chafam, Janayi ak Chafat nan peyi Bazan.
Joel the chief, and Shapham the next, and Ja'nai, and Shaphat in Bashan.
13 Lòt moun nan fanmi an te fè sèt branch. Men non branch fanmi yo, dapre non zansèt yo: Mikayèl, Mechoulam, Cheba, Jorayi, Jakan, Zya ak Ebè.
And their brethren according to their family divisions were, Michael, and Meshullam, and Sheba', and Jorai, and Ya'kan, and Zia', and 'Eber, seven.
14 Yo tout te pitit Abikayil ki te pitit Ouri. Ouri te pitit Jawoja ki te pitit Galarad. Galarad te pitit Mikayèl ki te pitit Jechichayi. Jechichayi te pitit Jakdo ki te pitit Bouz.
These are the children of Abichayil the son of Churi, the son of Jaroach, the son of Gil'ad, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jachdo, the son of Buz:
15 Aki, pitit Abdyèl, pitit pitit Gouni, te zansèt tout fanmi sa yo.
Achi the son of Abdiel the son of Guni, the chief of their family division.
16 Yo te rete nan peyi Bazan ak nan peyi Galarad, nan lavil yo ak nan tout savann patiraj peyi Sawon an.
And they dwelt in Gil'ad, in Bashan, and in its minor towns, and in all the open districts of Sharon, as far as their terminations.
17 Se sou rèy Jotam, wa peyi Jida, ak Jewoboram, wa peyi Izrayèl, yo te fè rejis sa yo.
All these were recorded by their genealogies in the days of Jotham the king of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo'am the king of Israel.
18 Branch fanmi Woubenn lan, branch fanmi Gad la ak mwatye branch fanmi Manase a te gen antou karannkatmil sètsanswasant (44.760) sòlda, tout vanyan gason, ki konn sèvi ak pwotèj an fè ak nepe, ak banza. Yo te abil nan fè lagè.
The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Menasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear shield and sword, and to draw the bow, and practised in war, were four and forty thousand seven hundred and sixty, that went out to the army.
19 Yo fè lagè ak moun Aga yo ki te rete lavil Jetou, lavil Nafich ak lavil Nodab.
And they made war with the Hagarenes, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab.
20 Yo pa t' pou kont yo nan batay la. Yo te mete konfyans yo nan Bondye. Pandan batay la, yo lapriyè mande l' konkou. Bondye reponn yo, li lage tout moun Aga yo ansanm ak tout moun ki te avèk moun Aga yo nan men yo.
And they obtained help against them, and the Hagarenes were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them; for to God they cried in the battle, and he was entreated by them; because they put their trust in him.
21 Yo pran senkantmil (50.000) chamo, desansenkantmil (250.000) mouton ak kabrit, demil (2.000) bourik nan men lènmi yo. Yo fè sanmil (100.000) prizonye.
And they led away captive their cattle: of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of human beings one hundred thousand.
22 Yo touye anpil ladan lènmi yo paske batay la se Bondye menm ki t'ap mennen l' pou yo. Se konsa yo rete nan zòn sa a jouk jou yo depòte yo.
For there fell down many slain; because the war was of God. And they dwelt in their stead until the exile.
23 Moun mwatye branch fanmi Manase ki sou bò solèy leve larivyè Jouden an te rete nan zòn ki soti Bazan moute nan nò rive Baalèmòn, lavil Sini ak mòn Emon. Yo te peple anpil.
And the children of the half tribe of Menasseh dwelt in the land: from Bashan unto Ba'al-chermon and Senir and mount Chermon were they numerous.
24 Men non chèf fanmi yo: Efè, Icheyi, Eliyèl, Azryèl, Jeremi, Odavya ak Jadyèl. Mesye sa yo te vanyan sòlda, chèf fanmi yo. Tout moun t'ap nonmen non yo.
And these were the heads of their family divisions: namely, 'Epher, and Yish'i, and Eliel, and 'Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodavyah, and Jachdiel, mighty men of valor, famous men, [and] heads of their family divisions.
25 Men, pèp la te vire do bay Bondye zansèt yo a, y' al kouri fè sèvis pou bondye lòt nasyon Bondye te disparèt pou fè plas pou yo.
But they trespassed against the God of their fathers, and went astray after the gods of the people of the land, whom God had destroyed from before them.
26 Se poutèt sa, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la fè Poul, wa peyi Lasiri a ki te rele Tiglat-Pilesè tou, anvayi peyi yo a, depòte moun branch fanmi Woubenn yo, moun branch fanmi Gad yo ak moun mwatye branch fanmi Manase yo. Li mennen yo lavil Ala, lavil Abò, lavil Ara ak bò larivyè Gozan kote yo rete jouk jounen jòdi a.
And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul the king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgath-pilnesser the king of Assyria, and he carried them into exile, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Menasseh, and brought them unto Chalach, and Chabor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, even until this day.
