< Deteronòm 5 >
1 Moyiz fè tout pèp Izrayèl la sanble, epi li di yo: -Nou menm pèp Izrayèl, koute lòd ak kòmandman m'ap fè nou tande jòdi a. Aprann yo byen. Pa janm bliye yo pou nou ka toujou fè tou sa yo mande nou fè.
And Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, Hear, Israel, the statutes and the ordinances that I speak in your ears this day, and learn them, and keep them to do them.
2 Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te siyen yon kontra ak nou sou Mòn Orèb la.
Jehovah our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3 Se pa t' avèk zansèt nou yo sèlman Seyè a te pase kontra a, men avèk nou menm tou, nou tout k'ap viv isit la jòdi a.
Not with our fathers did Jehovah make this covenant, but with us, [even] us, those [who are] here alive all of us this day.
4 Bondye te rete sou mòn lan, nan mitan dife a. Li te pale ak nou fas pou fas.
Face to face on the mountain from the midst of the fire Jehovah spoke with you
5 Lè sa a, mwen menm mwen te kanpe nan mitan, Seyè a yon bò, nou menm yon bò, pou m' te rapòte nou tout pawòl Seyè a te di, paske nou te pè dife a, nou pa t' vle moute sou mòn lan. Men sa Seyè a te di:
(I stood between Jehovah and you at that time, to declare to you the word of Jehovah; for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up to the mountain), saying,
6 Se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip kote nou te esklav la.
I am Jehovah thy God who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
7 Piga nou sèvi lòt bondye pase mwen menm sèlman.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
8 Piga nou janm fè ankenn estati ni ankenn pòtre ki sanble bagay ki anwo nan syèl la osinon bagay ki sou latè ou ankò nan dlo anba tè a.
Thou shalt not make thyself any graven image, any form of what is in the heavens above, or what is in the earth beneath, or what is in the waters under the earth:
9 Piga nou adore yo, ni piga nou sèvi yo. Paske, mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mwen se yon Bondye ki fè jalouzi anpil. Lè yon moun rayi m', mwen fè pitit li, pitit pitit li ak pitit pitit pitit li yo peye sa.
thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them; for I, Jehovah thy God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons, and upon the third and upon the fourth [generation] of them that hate me,
10 Men, lè yon moun renmen m', lè li fè sa m' mande l' fè, m'ap moutre l' jan moun renmen l' tou ansanm ak tout pitit pitit li yo pandan mil jenerasyon.
and shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
11 Piga nou janm nonmen non Seyè a, Bondye nou an, an jwèt osinon pou bay manti, paske mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mwen p'ap manke pini moun ki nonmen non m' pou gremesi.
Thou shalt not idly utter the name of Jehovah thy God; for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that idly uttereth his name.
12 Toujou chonje jou repo a pou nou mete l' apa pou Bondye, jan mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou lòd fè l' la.
Keep the sabbath day to hallow it, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee.
13 N'a travay sis jou. Lè sa a, n'a fè tou sa nou gen pou nou fè.
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work;
14 Men, setyèm jou a, se jou repo Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Jou sa a, nou p'ap fè ankenn travay, ni nou menm, ni pitit gason nou, ni pitit fi nou, ni fanm ni gason k'ap travay lakay nou, ni bèf nou, ni bourik nou, ni ankenn nan lòt bèt nou genyen, ni moun lòt nasyon ki rete lakay nou. Konsa, ni fanm ni gason k'ap travay lakay nou ka pran repo menm jan ak nou.
but the seventh day is the sabbath of Jehovah thy God: thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy bondman, nor thy handmaid, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy sojourner that is within thy gates; that thy bondman and thy handmaid may rest as well as thou.
15 N'a toujou chonje se esklav nou te ye nan peyi Lejip la. E se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te vin delivre nou ak fòs ponyèt mwen, ak gwo kouraj mwen. Se poutèt sa, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te pase nou lòd pou nou pa bliye jou repo a.
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and that Jehovah thy God brought thee out thence with a powerful hand and with a stretched-out arm; therefore Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee to observe the sabbath day.
16 Respekte manman nou ak papa nou jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te pase nou lòd la, pou nou ka viv lontan ak kè kontan nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou.
Honour thy father and thy mother, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may be well with thee in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
17 Piga nou janm touye moun.
Thou shalt not kill.
18 Piga nou janm fè adiltè.
Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19 Piga nou janm pran sa ki pa pou nou.
Neither shalt thou steal.
20 Piga nou janm fè manti sou frè parèy nou nan tribinal.
Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
21 Piga nou janm pote lanvi sou madanm frè parèy nou. Pa mete lide nou ni sou kay li, ni sou jaden li, ni sou gason osinon fanm k'ap travay lakay li, ni sou bèf li, ni sou bourik li, ni sou anyen ki pou frè parèy nou.
Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour's wife, neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour's house, his field, nor his bondman, nor his handmaid, his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbour's.
22 Men pawòl Seyè a te di nou lè nou tout nou te sanble sou mòn lan. Li te rete nan mitan dife a, anndan gwo nwaj nwa a, li pale byen fò ak nou. Li pa di anyen ankò apre sa. Li ekri kòmandman sa yo sou de wòch plat, epi li ban mwen yo.
These words Jehovah spoke to all your congregation on the mountain from the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the obscurity, with a great voice, and he added no more; and he wrote them on two tables of stone, and gave them to me.
23 Men, lè pèp la tande bri vwa ki t'ap soti nan nwaj nwa a, lè yo wè mòn lan ki t'ap pran dife, yo vin jwenn mwen ansanm ak tout chèf branch fanmi yo ak tout chèf fanmi yo.
And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice from the midst of the darkness, and the mountain burned with fire, that ye came near to me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
24 Yo di m' konsa: -Koulye a, nou wè Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Nou wè jan li gen pouvwa, jan li merite yo fè lwanj li. Nou tande vwa l' ap pale nan mitan dife a. Jòdi a nou wè tout bon vre Bondye ka pale ak moun san yo pa mouri pou sa.
and ye said, Behold, Jehovah our God has shewn us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice from the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God talks with man, and he lives.
25 Bon. Koulye a, poukisa pou n' al riske tèt nou ankò avèk gwo dife sa a ki ka kankannen nou? Eske nou p'ap mouri si nou tande vwa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap pale yon lòt fwa ankò?
And now, why should we die? for this great fire will consume us. If we hear the voice of Jehovah our God any more, we shall die.
26 Eske gen moun sou latè ki ka rete vivan toujou lè yo fin tande Bondye tout bon an rete nan mitan dife pou pale ak yo, jan sa te rive nou an?
For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking from the midst of the fire, as we, and has lived?
27 Ou mèt pwoche ou menm, pou ou tande tou sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va di. Apre sa, w'a tounen vin di nou sa li te di ou. N'a koute ou, epi n'a fè tou sa l' di nou fè.
Come thou near, and hear all that Jehovah our God will say; and speak thou to us all that Jehovah our God will speak to thee; and we will hear it, and do it.
28 Seyè a te tande sa nou te di a, li di m' konsa: Mwen tande sa pèp la di la a. Yo gen rezon.
And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, when ye spoke to me; and Jehovah said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people that have spoken to thee: they have well spoken all that they have spoken.
29 Mwen ta swete yo toujou gen bon santiman nan kè yo pou yo ka gen krentif pou mwen, pou yo kenbe lòd mwen yo, konsa yo ta viv ak kè kontan tout tan, ni yo menm ni pitit yo.
Oh that there were such a heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments continually, that it might be well with them and with their sons for ever!
30 Ale di yo yo mèt tounen anba tant yo.
Go, say unto them, Get you into your tents again.
31 Men ou menm, ou va rete isit la avè m'. M'a ba ou tout kòmandman, tout lòd ak tout prensip pou ou moutre yo pou yo ka swiv yo nan peyi m'ap ba yo a.
But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
32 Veye kò nou pou nou viv jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te mande nou viv la. Pa vire ni adwat ni agoch.
Take heed then to do as Jehovah your God hath commanded you: turn not aside to the right hand or to the left.
33 N'a mache dwat nan chemen Bondye nou an, Seyè a, mete devan nou an. Se konsa n'a gen lavi, n'a gen kè kontan. N'a viv lontan nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou rete a.
In all the way that Jehovah your God hath commanded you shall ye walk, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.
