Deteronòm 27
1 Lè sa a, Moyiz ansanm ak tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo bay pèp la lòd sa yo: -Se pou nou fè tou sa mwen mande nou fè jòdi a.
Moses/I, along with the other Israeli leaders, said this to the people: “Obey all the commandments that I am giving to you today.
2 Lè n'a janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, pou nou antre nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou an, n'a pran kèk gwo wòch, n'a mete yo kanpe, n'a blanchi yo ak lacho.
[Soon] you will cross the Jordan [River] and enter the land that Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors [worshiped], promised to give to you. There, in that very fertile [IDM] land on the [west] side of the Jordan [River], set up some large stones [on Ebal Mountain], and cover them with plaster. Then write on those stones all these laws and teachings/instructions.
3 Apre sa, n'a ekri sou yo tout lòd ki nan lalwa sa a. Lè n'a fin antre nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou an, peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl ap koule tankou dlo jan li te pwomèt zansèt nou yo,
4 lè n'a fin janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, n'a kanpe wòch sa yo sou tèt mòn Ebal, jan mwen di nou li jòdi a. N'a blanchi yo ak lacho.
5 N'a pran wòch, n'a moute yon lòtèl la tou pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Pa travay wòch n'a pran pou n' fè lòtèl la ak sizo.
And build a stone altar there to offer sacrifices to Yahweh, but do not cut those stones with iron tools.
6 Se pou n' pran wòch yo konsa, jan nou jwenn yo a, pou nou bati lòtèl Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Se la n'a touye bèt nou ofri pou yo boule nèt pou Seyè a.
The altar that you make to burn sacrifices to Yahweh our God must be made with uncut stones.
7 Se la n'a fè ofrann bèt pou yo touye pou di Bondye mesi. Se la n'a manje ofrann nou yo, se la n'a fè fèt devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
And there you must sacrifice offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh, and you must eat [your share of those offerings] and rejoice/celebrate in the presence of Yahweh.
8 N'a ekri sou wòch yo tout lòd ki nan lalwa sa a. N'a ekri yo pou tout moun ka li yo.
And, when you write these laws on those stones, you must write them very clearly.”
9 Apre sa, Moyiz ansanm ak prèt moun Levi yo pale ak tout pèp la. Li di yo konsa: -Nou menm, moun pèp Izrayèl yo, fè yon ti silans pou mwen, tanpri. Koute byen. Depi jòdi a se pèp Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nou ye.
Then Moses/I, along with the priests, said to all the Israeli people, “You Israeli people, be quiet and listen [to what I am saying]. Today you have become the people who belong to Yahweh, our God.
10 Se pou nou obeyi l', se pou nou swiv tout lòd ak tout regleman mwen ban nou jòdi a.
So, you must do what he tells you, and obey all the rules and regulations that I am giving to you today.”
11 Menm jou sa a, Moyiz bay pèp Izrayèl la lòd sa a:
On that same day Moses/I said to the Israeli people,
12 -Lè n'a fin pase larivyè Jouden an, moun branch fanmi Simeyon, moun branch fanmi Levi, moun branch fanmi Jida, moun branch fanmi Isaka, moun branch fanmi Jozèf ak moun branch fanmi Benjamen yo va moute kanpe sou mòn Garizim lè y'ap beni pèp la.
“After you have crossed over the Jordan [River], the tribes of Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin must stand on Gerizim Mountain and [request Yahweh to] bless the people.
13 Moun branch fanmi Woubenn, moun branch fanmi Gad, moun branch fanmi Asè, moun branch fanmi Zabilon, moun branch fanmi Dann ak moun branch fanmi Neftali yo va moute kanpe sou mòn Ebal lè y'ap bay pèp la madichon.
And the tribes of Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali must stand on Ebal Mountain and listen to the things that Yahweh will do when he curses the people.
14 Moun Levi yo va pale ak pèp la, y'a rele byen fò pou tout moun ka tande:
The descendants of Levi must shout these words loudly:
15 -Madichon Bondye pou tout moun ki fè travay yon wòch ak sizo osinon fè fonn metal pou fè yon zidòl, epi lèfini ki kache l' yon kote pou l' fè sèvis pou li. Se yon bondye moun fè ak men yo. Seyè a pa vle wè bagay konsa! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who makes an idol of stone, or of wood, or of metal, and secretly sets it up [and worships it]. Yahweh considers that those things, made by humans [SYN], are detestable/disgusting.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
16 -Madichon pou moun ki derespekte manman l' al papa l'! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who dishonors his father or his mother.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
17 -Madichon pou moun ki deplase bòn tè yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy li! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who removes someone else’s markers of property boundaries.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
18 -Madichon Bondye pou moun ki fè yon avèg pèdi chemen l'! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who leads a blind person to go (in the wrong direction/where that person does not want to go).’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
19 -Madichon Bondye pou moun k'ap fè pasdwa sou moun lòt nasyon yo, sou timoun ki san papa ak sou vèv yo! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who deprives foreigners or orphans or widows of the things that the laws state must be done for them.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
20 -Madichon Bondye pou tout gason ki va kouche ak madanm papa l', paske se avili l'ap avili papa l'! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who (shows no respect for/disgraces his father) by having sex with [EUP] any of his father’s wives.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
21 -Madichon Bondye pou tout moun ki kwaze ak nenpòt ki bèt! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex [EUP] with any animal.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
22 -Madichon Bondye pou tout moun ki kouche avèk sè li, kit se pitit fi papa l', kit se pitit fi manman l'! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex with his sister or with his half-sister.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
23 -Madichon Bondye pou moun ki kouche ak bèlmè li, manman madanm li! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex with [EUP] his mother-in-law.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
24 -Madichon Bondye pou moun ki touye yon lòt moun Izrayèl parèy li an kachèt! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who secretly murders someone else.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
25 -Madichon Bondye pou moun ki asepte lajan pou touye yon inonsan! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who accepts a bribe to murder someone who (is innocent/has not done something that is wrong.)’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
26 -Madichon Bondye pou moun ki pa kenbe pawòl ki nan lalwa a, ki pa fè sa yo di ladan l'! Tout pèp la va reponn: -Se sa menm! Nou dakò!
‘Yahweh will curse anyone who disobeys these laws and refuses to declare that these laws [are good].’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’”
