Deteronòm 9

1 Koute byen, nou menm pèp Izrayèl! Lè a rive, jòdi a nou pral janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an pou n' al anvayi peyi ki pou nasyon ki gen plis moun pase nou, nasyon ki pi fò pase nou. Nou pral pran yon bann gwo lavil ki gen ranpa wotè syèl la pou pwoteje yo.

Here thou, Israel; thou schalt passe Jordan to dai, that thou welde mooste naciouns, and strengere than thou; grete citees, and wallid `til to heuene;

2 Moun peyi a se yon bann moun ki gwonèg, ki bèl wotè tankou moun Anak yo. Nou konn tande yo di pa gen moun ki ka kenbe tèt ak moun sa yo.

a greet puple, and hiy; the sones of Enachym, whiche thi silf `siest, and herdist, whiche no man may ayenstonde in the contrarie part.

3 Enben, koulye a, nou pral konnen se Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki pral pran devan nou. Tankou yon gwo dife k'ap boule tou sa li kontre, li pral disparèt yo chak fwa n'a jwenn yo sou wout nou. Li pral fè yo bese tèt devan nou. Se konsa n'a pran peyi a nan men yo, n'a disparèt yo la pou la jan Seyè a te di l' la.

Therfor thou schalt wite to dai, that thi Lord God hym silf schal passe bifor thee; he is a fier deuourynge and wastynge, that schal al to breke hem, and schal do awei, and destrie bifor thi face swiftli, as he spak to thee.

4 Lè Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va fin chase moun sa yo devan nou, piga nou di nan kè nou se paske nou merite kifè Seyè a te fè n' antre pran peyi a pou nou. Non. Se paske moun sa yo mechan kifè Seyè a te mete yo deyò ban nou plas yo.

Seie thou not in thin herte, whanne thi Lord God hath do hem awey in thi siyt, For my riytfulnesse the Lord brouyte me yn, that Y schulde welde this lond; sithen these naciouns ben doon awey for her wickidnessis.

5 Non! Se pa paske nou te merite, ni paske nou te mennen bak nou dwat kifè Seyè a pral fè nou pran peyi a pou nou. Se paske moun sa yo mechan kifè Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pral disparèt yo sou tout wout nou. Epitou, se pou l' te ka kenbe pawòl li te sèmante bay zansèt nou yo, Abraram, Izarak ak Jakòb.

For not for thi riytfulnessis, and equyte of thin herte thou schalt entre that thou welde the lond `of hem; but for thei diden wickidli, thei weren doon awey, whanne thou entridist, and that the Lord schulde fille his word which he bihiyte vndur an ooth to thi fadris, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

6 Se pou nou konnen se pa paske nou merite anyen kifè Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou bon peyi sa a pou rele nou pa nou. Non! Paske se yon pèp ki gen tèt di anpil nou ye.

Therfor wite thou that not for thi riytfulnesses thi Lord God yaf to thee this beste lond in to possessioun, sithen thou art a puple of hardeste nol.

7 Pa janm bliye jan ou te fè Seyè a, Bondye nou an, fache anpil nan dezè a. Depi lè nou te soti nan peyi Lejip jouk nou rive isit la, n'ap fè wòklò devan Seyè a.

Haue thou mynde, and foryete not, hou in the wildirnesse thou terridist thi Lord God to greet wraththe; fro that dai in which thou yedist out of Egipt `til to this place, thou striuedist euere ayens the Lord.

8 Lè nou te sou mòn Orèb la, nou te eksite kòlè Seyè a. Li te sitèlman fache lè sa a, li te fè lide detwi nou tout.

For whi also in Oreb thou terridist hym, and he was wrooth, and wolde do thee awei, whanne Y stiede in to the hil,

9 Mwen te moute sou mòn lan pou m' te al resevwa de wòch plat yo, wòch ki te gen kontra Seyè a te fè ak nou an ekri sou yo. Mwen rete la, mwen pase karant jou, karant nwit, san manje, san bwè anyen sou mòn lan.

that Y schulde take two tablis of stoon, the tablis of couenaunt which the Lord made with you, and Y continuede in the hil fourti daies and nyytis, and Y eet not breed, and Y drank not watir.

10 Se lè sa a Seyè a te ban mwen de wòch plat yo. Se sou yo li te ekri avèk pwòp men l' tou sa li di nou, antan li te nan mitan gwo dife a, jou nou tout te reyini nan pye mòn lan.

And the Lord yaf to me, twey tablis of stoon, euer either wrytun with Goddis fyngur, and conteynynge alle the wordis whiche he spak to you in the hil, fro the myddis of the fier, whanne the cumpany of puple was gaderid togidere.

11 Wi, apre karant jou ak karant nwit, Seyè a ban mwen de wòch plat yo avèk kontra a ekri sou yo.

And whanne fourti daies and so many nyytis hadden passid, the Lord yaf to me twei tablis of stoon, tablis of boond of pees;

12 Epi li di m' konsa: Leve non, desann mòn lan byen vit, paske pèp ou a, pèp ou te mennen soti kite peyi Lejip la, lage kò l' nan fè sa ki mal. Yo pa tann lontan pou yo kite chemen mwen te mete devan yo pou yo swiv la. Yo gen tan fonn metal, yo fè yon zidòl pou tèt pa yo.

and he seide to me, Rise thou, and go doun for hennys soone, for thi puple, which thou leddist out of Egipt, han forsake swiftli the weie which thou schewidist to hem, and thei han maad to hem a yotun calf.

13 Apre sa, Seyè a di m' ankò: mwen gade pèp la, mwen wè se yon pèp ki gen tèt di anpil.

And eft the Lord seide to me, `Y se that this puple is of hard nol;

14 Kite m' fè sa m'ap fè a non! Mwen pral disparèt yo nèt pou pesonn sou latè pa janm chonje te gen moun sa yo. Men ou menm, m'ap ba ou pitit ki va vin zansèt yon nasyon k'ap pi gran, k'ap pi fò pase yo.

suffre thou me, that I alto breke hym, and do awey the name `of hym fro vndur heuene; and Y schal ordeyne thee on a folk which is grettere and strongere than this folk.

15 Mwen desann soti nan mòn lan ki te plen flanm dife: mwen te gen de wòch kontra yo nan men m'.

And whanne Y cam doun fro the hil brennynge, and helde with euer either hond twei tablis of boond of pees, and Y seiy,

16 Lè mwen wè nou te gen tan dezobeyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nou te gen tan kite chemen Seyè a te mete devan nou, nou te fonn metal, nou te fè estati yon ti towo,

that ye hadde synned to youre Lord God, and hadden maad to you a yotun calf, and hadden forsake swiftli the weie of God which he schewide to you,

17 mwen pran de wòch plat ki te nan men m' yo, mwen voye yo jete, mwen kraze yo devan nou tout.

Y castide doun the tablis fro myn hondis, and brak tho tablis in youre siyt.

18 Apre sa, mwen lage kò m' fas atè devan Seyè a. Tankou premye fwa a, mwen pase karant jou ak karant nwit, san manje, san bwè anyen. Tou sa, paske nou te fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a, nou pa t' fè l' plezi, nou te fè l' fache anpil.

And Y felde doun bifor the Lord as `biforto, in fourti daies and fourti nyytis, and Y eet not breed, `and drank not watir, for alle youre synnes whiche ye diden ayens the Lord, and terriden hym to `greet wraththe;

19 Mwen menm, mwen te pè anpil lè m' wè jan Seyè a te fache, paske li te fache kont pou l' te disparèt nou nèt. Men, fwa sa a ankò, Seyè a koute m'.

for Y dredde the indignacioun and yre of hym, by which he was stirid ayens you, and wolde do you awey. And the Lord herde me also in this tyme.

20 Lè sa a, li te fache anpil tou sou Arawon jouk li te vle touye l'. Men, mwen te lapriyè nan pye l' pou Arawon.

Also the Lord was wrooth greteli ayens Aaron, and wolde alto breke hym, and Y preiede in lijk maner for hym.

21 Mwen te pran estati ti towo bèf nou te fè ak move lide nan tèt nou an, mwen jete l' nan dife. Mwen mete l' nan yon pilon, mwen kraze l' an myèt moso, mwen fè l' tounen pousyè. Lèfini, mwen te jete pousyè a nan dlo larivyè ki desann soti nan mòn lan.

`Forsothe Y took youre synne which ye maden, that is, the calf, and brente it in fier, and Y alto brak in gobetis, and droof outerli in to dust, and castide forth in to the stronde, that cam doun fro the hil.

22 Nou te eksite kòlè Seyè a tou lè nou te Tabera, lè nou te Masa ak lè nou te Simityè Grangou.

Also in the brennyng, and in the temptacioun at the watris of ayenseiyng, and in the Sepulcris of Coueytise, ye terriden the Lord;

23 Le Seyè a te ban nou lòd pati kite Kadès-Banea pou n' al pran pou nou peyi li te di l'ap ban nou an, nou t'ap fè wòklò ak Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Nou pa t' kwè nan li, nou te derefize tande l'.

and whanne Y sente you fro Cades Barne, and seide, `Stye ye, and welde the lond which Y yaf to you, and ye dispisiden the comaundement of youre Lord God, and ye bileueden not to him, nether ye wolden here his vois;

24 Depi mwen konnen nou, se wòklò n'ap plede fè ak Bondye!

but euere ye weren rebel, fro the day in which Y bigan to knowe you.

25 Se konsa mwen lage kò m' fas atè devan Seyè a, pandan karant jou ak karant nwit, paske Seyè a te di l'ap disparèt nou.

And Y lay byfore the Lord fourti daies and fourti nyytis, in whiche Y bisouyte hym mekeli, that he schulde not `do awey you, as he manaasside.

26 mwen te lapriyè Seyè a pou nou, mwen di l' konsa: O Seyè, Bondye mwen, tanpri! Pa detwi pèp ou a, pèp ki rele ou pa ou la, pèp ou te delivre ak pouvwa ou la, pèp ou te fè soti kite peyi Lejip ak fòs ponyèt ou a.

And Y preiede, and seide, Lord God, distrye not thi puple, and thin eritage, which thou `ayen bouytist in thi greetnesse, which thou leddist out of Egipt in strong hond.

27 Chonje sèvitè ou yo, Abraram, Izarak ak Jakòb! Pa gade sou tèt di pèp la, ni sou mechanste ak sou peche l'ap fè.

Haue thou mynde of thi seruauntis, of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; biholde thou not the hardnesse of this puple, and the wickidnesse, and the synne therof,

28 Mwen pa ta vle pou nan peyi kote ou fè nou soti a moun yo ta di: Wi, Seyè a pa t' ka mennen yo nan peyi li te pwomèt l'ap ba yo a. Se rayi li rayi yo kifè li fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip la pou l' touye yo nan dezè a.

lest perauenture the dwelleris of the lond, out of which thou leddist vs, seien, The Lord myyte not bryng hem in to the lond which he bihiyte to hem, and he hatide hem; therfor he ledde hem out that he schulde sle hem in wildirnesse;

29 Men, se pèp ou yo ye! Yo rele ou pa ou! Se avèk gwo pouvwa ou, avèk fòs ponyèt ou ou te fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip.

and thei ben thi puple and thin eritage, which thou leddist out in thi greet strengthe, and in thin arm holdun forth.
