Egzòd 16
1 Apre sa, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo pati kite Elim, yo rive nan dezè yo rele Sin lan, ant Elim ak mòn Sinayi. Lè yo rive la, yo te gen yon mwa kenz jou depi yo te pati kite Lejip.
They took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails] came to the wilderness of Cin [Clay], which is between Elim and Sinai [Thorn], on the fifteenth day of the second month (Iyar ·Light / I Am God your healer, 2·) after their departing out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
2 Yo tout pran bougonnen sou do Moyiz ak Arawon nan dezè a.
The whole congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails] murmured against Moses [Drawn out] and against Aaron [Light-bringer] in the wilderness;
3 Yo t'ap di yo: -Poukisa Seyè a pa t' tou touye nou nan peyi Lejip la? Lè sa a, nou te konn chita devan bòl vyann nou, nou te konn manje pen plen vant nou. Men, ou menm ak Arawon, nou mennen nou nan dezè sa a pou fè tout kantite moun sa yo mouri grangou.
and the children of Israel [God prevails] said to them, “We wish that we had died by Adonai’s hand in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], when we sat by the meat pots, when we ate our fill of bread, for you have brought us out into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.”
4 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Mwen pral fè pen tonbe soti nan syèl la pou nou tankou grenn lapli. Pèp la va soti chak jou pou l' ranmase mezi li bezwen pou jounen an. Konsa, m'a gade pou m' wè si wi ou non yo vle mache sou lòd mwen vre.
Then Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Behold, I will rain bread from the sky for you, and the people shall go out and gather a day’s portion every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in my Torah ·Teaching·, or not.
5 Chak sizyèm jou nan senmenn lan, y'a ranmase de fwa lavalè sa yo konn ranmase lòt jou yo, y'a pare mete la.
It shall come to pass on the sixth day, that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.”
6 Moyiz ak Arawon di tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo: -Aswè a n'a konnen se Seyè a ki te fè nou pati kite peyi Lejip.
Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer] said to all the children of Israel [God prevails], “At evening, then you shall know that Adonai has brought you out from the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery];
7 Denmen maten, n'a wè ki kalite pouvwa Seyè a genyen. Li tande jan n'ap bougonnen sou do li. Paske mwen menm ak Arawon, kisa nou ye pou se sou nou n'ap bougonnen konsa? Se sou Bondye n'ap bougonnen.
and in the morning, then you shall see the kavod Yahweh ·weighty glory of He sustains breathing·; because he sh'ma ·hears obeys· your murmurings against Adonai. Who are we, that you murmur against us?”
8 Apre sa, Moyiz di yo: -Se Seyè a k'ap ban nou vyann pou nou manje chak swa. Se li k'ap ban nou kantite pen nou bezwen chak maten, paske Seyè a tande tout bougonnen n'ap bougonnen sou li a. Nou menm, kisa nou ye? Se pa sou nou n'ap bougonnen, men se sou Seyè a n'ap bougonnen.
Moses [Drawn out] said, “Now Adonai shall give you meat to eat in the evening, and in the morning bread to satisfy you; because Adonai sh'ma ·hears obeys· your murmurings which you murmur against him. And who are we? Your murmurings are not against us, but against Adonai.”
9 Lè sa a Moyiz di Arawon: -Men sa pou ou di tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo: Pwoche vin devan Seyè a paske li tande jan n'ap plenyen an.
Moses [Drawn out] said to Aaron [Light-bringer], “Tell all the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails], ‘Come near before Adonai, for he has heard your murmurings.’”
10 Pandan Arawon t'ap pale ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, yo vire tèt yo bò dezè a, yo wè pouvwa Bondye a parèt nan nwaj la.
As Aaron [Light-bringer] spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails], they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the kavod Yahweh ·weighty glory of He sustains breathing· appeared in the cloud.
11 Seyè a di Moyiz:
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
12 -Mwen tande jan moun pèp Izrayèl yo ap plenyen. Men sa pou ou di yo: Aswè a, anvan li fin fè nwa, n'a gen vyann pou nou manje. Denmen maten, n'a gen pen kantite nou bezwen. Lè sa a, n'a konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki Bondye nou.
“I have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the murmurings of the children of Israel [God prevails]. Speak to them, saying, ‘At evening you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread: and you shall know that I am Adonai your God.’”
13 Nan aswè, zòtolan vini, yo kouvri tout kote yo te moute tant yo a. Nan maten, te gen yon kouch lawouze toutalantou kote pèp la te moute tant yo a.
In the evening, quail came up and covered the camp; and in the morning the dew lay around the camp.
14 Lè lawouze a disparèt, li kite yon kwout tou blan atè nan dezè a. Kwout la te fen, li te plen ti grenn tankou sèl, li te kouvri tout atè a.
When the dew that lay had gone, behold, on the surface of the wilderness was a small round thing, small as the frost on the ground.
15 Lè moun pèp Izrayèl yo wè sa, yo pa t' konn sa l' te ye. Yonn t'ap di lòt: -Sa sa ye sa? Moyiz di yo: -Sa a, se pen Seyè a ban nou pou nou manje.
When the children of Israel [God prevails] saw it, they asked one another, “Man hu? ·What is it·?” For they didn’t know what it was. Moses [Drawn out] answered them, “It is the bread which Adonai has given you to eat.”
16 Men lòd Seyè a ban nou: Se pou chak moun ranmase mezi yo bezwen pou kantite moun ki lakay yo. N'a ranmase twa ti mamit edmi pou chak moun.
This is the thing which Adonai has enjoined: “Gather of it everyone according to his eating; an omer ·sheath of grain· [2.6 qt; 1.2 L] a head, according to the number of your persons, you shall take it, every man for those who are in his tent.”
17 Moun pèp Izrayèl yo fè sa Moyiz te di yo fè a. Gen moun ki te ranmase plis, gen lòt ki te ranmase pi piti.
The children of Israel [God prevails] did so, and gathered some more, some less.
18 Men, lè yo mezire, sa ki te ranmase plis yo pa t' gen twòp, sa ki te ranmase pi piti yo pa t' manke anyen. Konsa, chak moun te ranmase mezi yo te bezwen pou yo manje.
When they measured it with an omer ·sheath of grain· [2.6 qt; 1.2 L], he who gathered much had nothing extra, and he who gathered little had nothing lacking. They gathered every man according to his eating.
19 Moyiz di yo: -Piga pesonn sere anyen pou denmen.
Moses [Drawn out] said to them, “Let no one leave of it until the morning.”
20 Men gen moun ki pa t' koute Moyiz. Yo sere ti gout pou denmen maten. Nan denmen yo jwenn li plen vè, li te gate. Moyiz te fache sou moun sa yo.
Notwithstanding they didn’t sh'ma ·hear obey· Moses [Drawn out], but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and became foul: and Moses [Drawn out] was angry with them.
21 Chak maten yo ranmase mezi yo te bezwen pou yo manje. Men, kou solèy la konmanse cho, bagay la te fonn.
They gathered it morning by morning, everyone according to his eating. When the sun grew hot, it melted.
22 Sizyèm jou nan senmenn lan, yo te ranmase de fwa lavalè sa yo te konn ranmase chak jou a. Yo te ranmase sèt ti mamit pou chak moun. Tout chèf fanmi ki te alatèt pèp la vin di Moyiz sa.
On the sixth day, they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one, and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses [Drawn out].
23 Moyiz reponn yo: -Men lòd Seyè a te bay: Denmen se jou repo, se jou repo ki apa pou Seyè a. Kwit sa nou gen pou nou kwit. Bouyi sa nou gen pou nou bouyi. N'a sere rès la pou denmen.
He said to them, “This is that which Adonai has spoken, ‘Tomorrow is a solemn rest, a holy Sabbath ·Intermission· to Adonai. Bake that which you want to bake, and boil that which you want to boil; and all that remains over lay up for yourselves to be kept until the morning.’”
24 Jan Moyiz te ba yo lòd la, yo sere rès la pou denmen. Li pa t' gate, vè pa t' tonbe ladan l'.
They laid it up until the morning, as Moses [Drawn out] enjoined, and it didn’t become foul, and there were no worms in it.
25 Moyiz di yo: -Nou mèt manje rès la jòdi a, paske jòdi a se jou repo yo mete apa pou Seyè a. Jòdi a nou p'ap jwenn anyen deyò a.
Moses [Drawn out] said, “Eat that today, for today is a Shabath ·Intermission· to Adonai. Today you shall not find it in the field.
26 Pandan sis premye jou senmenn lan n'a jwenn pou n' ranmase. Men setyèm jou a, jou repo a, nou p'ap jwenn anyen pou nou ranmase.
Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day is the Shabath ·Intermission·. In it there shall be none.”
27 Setyèm jou a, gen kek moun nan pèp la ki te soti al ranmase manje, men yo pa jwenn anyen.
On the seventh day, some of the people went out to gather, and they found none.
28 Lè sa a, Seyè a di Moyiz: -Kilè n'a sispann dezobeyi lòd ak kòmandman mwen yo?
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “How long do you refuse to keep my mitzvot ·instructions· and my torot ·teachings·?
29 Konprann sa byen, se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki te ban nou jou repo sa a. Se poutèt sa, sou sizyèm jou nan senmenn lan, mwen ban nou manje valè pou de jou. Nan setyèm jou senmenn lan, se pou tout moun rete kote yo ye a. Piga pesonn mete tèt deyò.
Behold, because Adonai has given you the Shabath ·Intermission·, therefore he gives you on the sixth day the bread of two days. Everyone stay in his place. Let no one go out of his place on the seventh day.”
30 Se konsa, lè setyèm jou a rive, pèp la pa fè ankenn travay.
So the people rested on the seventh day.
31 Pèp Izrayèl la rele manje a laman. Li te gen fòm grenn pitimi. Li te tou blan, li te gen menm gou ak gato ki fèt ak siwo myèl.
The house of Israel [God prevails] called its name Manna ·What is it·, and it was like coriander seed, white; and its taste was like wafers with honey.
32 Moyiz di yo: -Men lòd Seyè a ban nou. Se pou nou sere twa ti mamit edmi plen laman pou pitit pitit nou yo. Konsa y'a wè ki kalite manje mwen te konn ban nou nan dezè a, lè mwen te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip la.
Moses [Drawn out] said, “This is the thing which Adonai has enjoined, ‘Let an omer-full of it be kept throughout all your generations, that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].’”
33 Apre sa Moyiz di Arawon: -Pran yon ti ja, mete twa ti mamit edmi laman ladan l'. Mete l' devan Seyè a pou l' ka rete pou pitit pitit nou yo.
Moses [Drawn out] said to Aaron [Light-bringer], “Take a pot, and put an omer-full of manna ·what is it· in it, and lay it up before Adonai, to be kept throughout all your generations.”
34 Arawon fè sa Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd fè a. Li mete ti ja a devan Bwat Kontra a, li sere l' la.
As Adonai enjoined Moses [Drawn out], so Aaron [Light-bringer] laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
35 Moun pèp Izrayèl yo pase karantan ap manje laman, jouk jou yo rive nan yon peyi kote yo jwenn moun rete. Kifè yo manje laman jouk yo rive sou fwontyè peyi Kanaran.
The children of Israel [God prevails] ate the manna ·what is it· forty years, until they came to an inhabited land. They ate the manna ·what is it· until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan [Humbled].
36 Twa ti mamit edmi, se valè twaka yon gwo mamit. Trannsenk ti mamit fè yon gwo bidon.
Now an omer ·sheath of grain· [2.6 qt; 1.2 L] is one tenth of an ephah [0.63 bushels; 5.9 gal; 22 L].
