< 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.
Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, “Hear, Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears today, that you may learn them, and observe to do them.”
2 Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te siyen yon kontra ak nou sou Mòn Orèb la.
The LORD 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.
The LORD didn’t make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive today.
4 Bondye te rete sou mòn lan, nan mitan dife a. Li te pale ak nou fas pou fas.
The LORD spoke with you face to face on the mountain out of the middle of the fire,
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 the LORD and you at that time, to show you the LORD’s word; for you were afraid because of the fire, and didn’t go up onto 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 the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
7 Piga nou sèvi lòt bondye pase mwen menm sèlman.
“You shall 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.
“You shall not make a carved image for yourself—any likeness of what is in heaven above, or what is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water 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.
You shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and on the third and on the fourth generation of those who 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 showing loving kindness to thousands of those who 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.
“You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who misuses 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.
“Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the LORD your God commanded you.
13 N'a travay sis jou. Lè sa a, n'a fè tou sa nou gen pou nou fè.
You shall labour six days, and do all your 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 a Sabbath to the LORD your God, in which you shall not do any work—neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you.
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.
You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep 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 your father and your mother, as the LORD your God commanded you, that your days may be long and that it may go well with you in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
17 Piga nou janm touye moun.
“You shall not murder.
18 Piga nou janm fè adiltè.
“You shall not commit adultery.
19 Piga nou janm pran sa ki pa pou nou.
“You shall not steal.
20 Piga nou janm fè manti sou frè parèy nou nan tribinal.
“You shall not give false testimony against your 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.
“You shall not covet your neighbour’s wife. Neither shall you desire your neighbour’s house, his field, or his male servant, or his female servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your 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.
The LORD spoke these words to all your assembly on the mountain out of the middle of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice. He added no more. He wrote them on two stone tablets, 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.
When you heard the voice out of the middle of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, even 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 you said, “Behold, the LORD our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the middle of the fire. We have seen today that God does speak 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?
Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear the LORD our God’s voice any more, then 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 who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and 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.
Go near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say, and tell us all that the LORD our God tells you; 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.
The LORD heard the voice of your words when you spoke to me; and the LORD said to me, “I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. They have well said 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 always, that it might be well with them and with their children forever!
30 Ale di yo yo mèt tounen anba tant yo.
“Go tell them, ‘Return to your tents.’
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 you, stand here by me, and I will tell you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess.”
32 Veye kò nou pou nou viv jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te mande nou viv la. Pa vire ni adwat ni agoch.
You shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God has commanded you. You shall not turn away 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.
You shall walk in all the way which the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.
