Deteronòm 30
1 Mwen mete benediksyon ak madichon dèvan nou pou n' chwazi. Lè tout bagay mwen te di nou yo va rive nou, si, antan n'ap viv nan mitan lòt nasyon nan peyi kote Seyè a te gaye nou yo, nou vin chonje sa m' te di nou,
And it shall come to pass, when all these things have come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, where the LORD thy God hath driven thee,
2 si nou tounen vin jwenn Seyè a, Bondye nou an, si nou koute l' ak tout kè nou, ak tout nanm nou, nou menm ak tout pitit nou yo, jan m'ap ban nou lòd jòdi a,
And shalt return to the LORD thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul;
3 enben, lè sa a Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va gen pitye pou nou. L'a mennen tout moun yo te depòte yo tounen lakay yo. L'a chanje sò nou. Li pral mache chache nou nan tout peyi kote li te gaye nou yo, l'a sanble nou ankò.
That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, where the LORD thy God hath scattered thee.
4 Yo mèt depòte nou jouk nan dènye bout latè, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pral chache nou jouk la pou l' sanble nou ankò.
If any of thine shall be driven out to the outmost parts of heaven, from there will the LORD thy God gather thee, and from there will he bring thee:
5 Seyè a va fè nou tounen nan peyi kote zansèt nou yo te rete a, n'a tounen pran l' pou nou ankò. L'a fè nou plis byen pase sa l' te fè pou zansèt nou yo, l'a fè nou vin pi plis pase zansèt nou yo.
And the LORD thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.
6 Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va mete mak kontra li a sou kè nou ak sou kè pitit nou yo, pou nou ka renmen l' ak tout kè nou, ak tout nanm nou, pou nou ka gen lavi.
And the LORD thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.
7 Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va fè tout madichon sa yo tonbe sou lènmi nou yo, sou moun ki pa t' vle wè nou yo, sou moun ki t'ap maltrete nou yo.
And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thy enemies, and on them that hate thee, who persecuted thee.
8 Men, nou menm, n'a tounen vin jwenn Seyè a, n'a koute l', n'a fè tou sa li ban nou lòd fè a, jan mwen mande nou li jòdi a.
And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the LORD, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.
9 Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va kouvri nou anba benediksyon. Li va fè tout zafè nou mache byen, l'a ban nou anpil pitit, l'a ban nou anpil bèt, l'a fè jaden nou yo bay bèl rekòt. Paske, Seyè a va pran plezi ankò pou l' fè nou viv ak kè kontan, menm jan li te pran plezi fè sa pou zansèt nou yo.
And the LORD thy God will make thee to abound in every work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for the LORD will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:
10 Men, n'a gen pou nou koute Seyè a, Bondye nou an, n'a gen pou nou kenbe tout kòmandman li yo ak tout regleman li yo, tou sa ki ekri nan liv lalwa a. Wi, se pou nou tounen vin jwenn Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ak tout kè nou, ak tout nanm nou.
If thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou shalt turn to the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.
11 Kòmandman m'ap ban nou jòdi a, se pa bagay nou pa kapab fè, bagay nou pa ka rive fè.
For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hid from thee, neither is it far off.
12 Se pa nan syèl la li ye pou n' ta di: Kilès ki pral moute al chache l' nan syèl la pou fè nou tande l', pou n' ka fè sa l' mande nou fè a?
It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it to us, that we may hear it, and do it?
13 Se pa lòt bò lanmè li ye non plis pou nou ta di: Kilès ki pral janbe lanmè al chache l' pou nou ka tande sa l' di, pou nou ka fè sa l' mande nou fè a?
Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, that we may hear it, and do it?
14 Non. Li la toupre nou. Li nan bouch nou, li nan tèt nou pou nou ka fè sa l' mande nou fè a.
But the word is very near to thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
15 Gade. Jòdi a mwen mete devan nou lavi ak benediksyon yon bò, lanmò ak madichon yon bò. Se nou ki pou chwazi.
See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
16 Sa m'ap mande nou jòdi a, se pou nou renmen Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se pou nou viv jan li vle l' la, se pou nou fè tou sa li mande nou fè nan kòmandman li yo, nan lòd li yo ak nan regleman li yo. Konsa, n'a gen lavi, n'a gen anpil pitit. Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va beni nou nan peyi nou pral pran pou rele nou pa nou an.
In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land where thou goest to possess it.
17 Men, si nou vire do ba li, si nou derefize koute l', si nou kite yo pran tèt nou pou n' al mete ajenou devan lòt bondye, pou n' al fè sèvis pou yo,
But if thy heart shall turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
18 m'ap avèti nou depi koulye a: nou tout gen pou mouri. Nou p'ap viv lontan nan peyi lòt bò larivyè Jouden kote nou pral antre pou nou pran pou nou an.
I declare to you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, where thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.
19 Mwen pran syèl la ak latè a sèvi m' temwen jòdi a: Men li, mwen mete devan nou lavi yon bò, lanmò yon bò, benediksyon yon bò, madichon yon bò pou nou chwazi. Chwazi lavi tande, pou nou ka viv, nou menm ansanm ak tout pitit nou yo.
I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
20 renmen Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Koute l'. Pa lage l' menm, paske se li menm ki tout lavi nou, se li k'ap fè nou viv lontan nan peyi Seyè a te fè pwomès li t'ap bay Abraram, Izarak ak Jakòb, zansèt nou yo.
That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave to him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD swore to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
