< Deteronòm 26 >
1 Lè n'a rive nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ban nou pou rele nou pa nou an, lè n'a fin pran tout peyi a pou nou pou nou rete ladan l',
And it shall be, when you are come in to the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance, and possess it, and dwell therein;
2 chak moun va pran premye donn tout pyebwa nan jaden li fè sou tè Seyè a, Bondye li a, va ba li, l'a mete yo nan yon panyen, epi l'a pote l' kote Seyè a te chwazi pou l' rete nan mitan nou an.
That you shall take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which you shall bring of your land that the LORD your God gives you, and shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which the LORD your God shall choose to place his name there.
3 Li aval jwenn prèt ki desèvis lè sa a, epi l'a di l': -Mwen deklare jòdi a, devan Seyè a, Bondye mwen an, mwen rekonèt mwen antre nan peyi li te pwomèt li t'ap bay zansèt nou yo.
And you shall go to the priest that shall be in those days, and say to him, I profess this day to the LORD your God, that I am come to the country which the LORD swore to our fathers for to give us.
4 Prèt la va pran panyen an nan men li, l'a depoze l' devan lòtèl Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
And the priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before the altar of the LORD your God.
5 Lè sa a, moun k'ap fè ofrann lan va pran lapawòl devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, l'a fè deklarasyon sa a: -Zansèt mwen te yon moun peyi Aram ki t'ap pwonmennen mache toupatou. Yon jou, li desann nan peyi Lejip ak moun pa l' yo ki pa t' anpil. Yo pase kèk tan nan peyi a, yo tounen yon gwo nasyon ki te fò ak anpil anpil moun ladan l'.
And you shall speak and say before the LORD your God, A Syrian ready to perish was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous:
6 Moun peyi Lejip yo tonbe maltrete nou, yo malmennen nou, yo fòse nou travay di tankou esklav.
And the Egyptians evil entreated us, and afflicted us, and laid on us hard bondage:
7 Lè sa a, nou rele Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, pou l' vin ede nou. Li tande lapriyè nou. Li wè nan ki mizè nou te ye, li wè tout lapenn ki te nan kè nou, li wè jan yo t'ap peze nou.
And when we cried to the LORD God of our fathers, the LORD heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labor, and our oppression:
8 Seyè a fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip la ak gwo fòs ponyèt li, li te fè anpil mirak ak anpil mèvèy, bagay ki te fè moun pè anpil.
And the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders:
9 Apre sa, li mennen nou isit la, li ban nou bèl tè sa a, kote lèt ak siwo myèl ap koule tankou dlo.
And he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, even a land that flows with milk and honey.
10 Se sa ki fè koulye a, Seyè, mwen pote ba ou pi bèl fwi nan premye rekòt ou ban mwen nan peyi a. Apre sa, nonm lan va depoze panyen an devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, l'a mete ajenou devan l'.
And now, behold, I have brought the first fruits of the land, which you, O LORD, have given me. And you shall set it before the LORD your God, and worship before the LORD your God:
11 Lèfini, li menm ak tout moun lakay li, l'a fè fèt pou tout bon bagay sa yo Seyè a te ba li. L'a fè moun Levi yo ansanm ak moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou yo fete ansanm ak li tou.
And you shall rejoice in every good thing which the LORD your God has given to you, and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the stranger that is among you.
12 Chak twazan n'a bay ladim, ki vle di yon dizyèm tout bagay nou rekòlte. N'a ranmase sa n'ap bay la, n'a mache nan tout lavil nou yo, n'a bay prèt yo, moun lòt nasyon yo, timoun san papa yo ak vèv yo, pou yo tout ka manje plen vant yo.
When you have made an end of tithing all the tithes of your increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and have given it to the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within your gates, and be filled;
13 Lèfini, n'a parèt devan lòtèl Seyè a, Bondye nou an, n'a di l': -Mwen pa kite lakay mwen anyen nan sa mwen fèt pou mete apa pou ou. Mwen mache bay prèt yo, moun lòt nasyon yo, timoun san papa ak vèv yo, dapre lòd ou te ban mwen. Mwen fè tou sa ou te mande m' fè sou keksyon sa a. Mwen pa bliye anyen nan tou sa ou di m'.
Then you shall say before the LORD your God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandments which you have commanded me: I have not transgressed your commandments, neither have I forgotten them.
14 Mwen pa t' manje ladan yo lè mwen te nan lapenn, ni lè mwen pa t' nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou ou. Ni mwen pa t' wete anyen ladan l' pou m' fè ofrann bay mò. Seyè, Bondye mwen, mwen te obeyi ou, mwen te fè tou sa ou te ban m' lòd fè sou keksyon sa a.
I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I taken away anything thereof for any unclean use, nor given anything thereof for the dead: but I have listened to the voice of the LORD my God, and have done according to all that you have commanded me.
15 Rete nan syèl la, nan kay ki apa nèt pou ou a, voye je ou gade pèp ou a. Beni pèp Izrayèl la ansanm ak tè ou te ban nou an dapre pwomès ou te fè zansèt nou yo. Beni peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl ap koule tankou dlo a.
Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the land which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land that flows with milk and honey.
16 Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pase nou lòd jòdi a pou nou swiv tout lwa ak tout regleman sa yo. N'a kenbe yo, n'a fè sa yo mande nou la a ak tout kè nou ak tout nanm nou.
This day the LORD your God has commanded you to do these statutes and judgments: you shall therefore keep and do them with all your heart, and with all your soul.
17 Jòdi a nou fè deklarasyon nou bay Seyè a: Nou di se li ki Bondye nou. Nou pwomèt pou nou toujou mache jan li vle l' la, pou nou fè tou sa ki nan lwa, nan lòd ak nan regleman li yo pou nou toujou koute sa l' di nou.
You have avouched the LORD this day to be your God, and to walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and to listen to his voice:
18 Jòdi a tou, Seyè a te asepte nou pou pèp li renmen anpil la, jan l' te fè nou pwomès la. Epi li pase nou lòd pou nou fè tou sa l'a mande nou fè.
And the LORD has avouched you this day to be his peculiar people, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments;
19 L'ap fè nou tounen nasyon ki pi gran pase tout lòt nasyon li te fè yo. N'a gen pouvwa pase yo, n'a gen repitasyon pase yo, y'a respekte nou pase yo. Wi, n'a yon pèp k'ap viv apa nèt pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan l' te di l' la.
And to make you high above all nations which he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that you may be an holy people to the LORD your God, as he has spoken.
