Jozye 7
1 Men, pèp Izrayèl la te dezobeyi lòd Seyè a te bay pou yo pa t' pran anyen nan sa yo te gen pou yo detwi nèt yo. Te gen yon nonm nan branch fanmi Jida a ki te rele Akan. Se te pitit Kami. Kami sa a te pitit Zabdi, Zabdi te pitit Zerak. Akan sa a te pran kichòy nan sa yo te gen pou yo detwi nèt yo. Kifè Seyè a te move anpil sou pèp Izrayèl la.
But the children of Israel committed a great trespass, and purloined [part] of the accursed thing; and Achar the son of Charmi, the son of Zambri, the son of Zara, of the tribe of Juda, took of the accursed thing; and the Lord was very angry with the children of Israel.
2 Jozye te voye kèk moun soti lavil Jeriko ale bò Ayi, yon lavil ki te toupre Bèt Avenn, sou bò solèy leve lavil Betèl. Li te di yo pou y' al wè jan sa ye nan peyi a. Mesye yo ale vre, yo wè jan sa ye nan lavil Ayi.
And Joshua sent men to Gai, which is by Baethel, saying, Spy out Gai: and the men went up and spied Gai.
3 Lè yo tounen vin jwenn Jozye, yo di li: -Nou pa bezwen deplase tout moun. N'a voye de twa mil moun konsa pou atake lavil Ayi a. Ou pa bezwen voye tout moun al goumen, paske pa gen anpil moun la.
And they returned to Joshua, and said to him, Let not all the people go up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and take the city by siege: carry not up there the whole people, for [the enemy] are few.
4 Lè sa a, yo chwazi twamil sòlda konsa ki te moute al atake. Men, moun lavil Ayi yo te fè yo kraze rak.
And there went up about three thousand men, and they fled from before the men of Gai.
5 Yo kouri dèyè sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo depi devan pòtay lavil la jouk nan men wòch yo. Nan ladesant lan yo touye trannsis moun konsa nan sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo. Lè sa a, pèp Izrayèl la soti pè. Yo pèdi kouraj.
And the men of Gai killed of them to the number of thirty-six men, and they pursued them from the gate, and destroyed them from the steep hill; and the heart of the people was alarmed and became as water.
6 Jozye te sitèlman nan lapenn, li chire rad sou li, epi li tonbe ajenou, li bese tèt jouk atè devan Bwat Kontra Seyè a. Li rete konsa jouk aswè ansanm ak tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo, yo pran pousyè tè yo mete sou tèt yo pou fè wè jan yo te nan lapenn.
And Joshua tore his garments; and Joshua fell on the earth on his face before the Lord until evening, he and the elders of Israel; and they cast dust on their heads.
7 Epi Jozye di: -Ay, Seyè Bondye! Poukisa ou fè pèp la janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an? Gen lè se pou ou te lage nou nan men moun Amori yo pou yo touye nou? Pa pito ou te kite nou rete lòt bò larivyè Jouden an!
And Joshua said, I pray, Lord, therefore has your servant brought this people over Jordan to deliver them to the Amorite to destroy us? would we had remained and settled ourselves beyond Jordan.
8 Tanpri, Mèt mwen! Kisa m' ka di koulye a lè m' wè moun Izrayèl yo ap kouri devan lènmi l' yo?
And what shall I say since Israel has turned his back before his enemy?
9 Moun Kanaran yo ak tout lòt moun ki rete nan peyi a pral konn sa. Yo pral leve dèyè nou. Yo pral touye nou nèt nan peyi a. Kisa ou pral fè lè sa a pou yo pa avili non ou?
And when the Chananite and all the inhabitants of the land hear it, they shall compass us round and destroy us from off the land: and what will you do [for] your great name?
10 Seyè a di Jozye konsa: -Leve non! Poukisa ou lage kò ou atè konsa?
And the Lord said to Joshua, Rise up; why have you fallen upon your face?
11 Se paske pèp Izrayèl la peche, yo pa respekte kontra mwen te pase ak yo a ak lòd mwen te ba yo. Yo pran nan bagay pou yo te detwi yo. Yo vòlò yo, yo kache yo, yo mete yo nan zafè pa yo.
The people has sinned, and transgressed the covenant which I made with them; they have stolen from the cursed thing, and put it into their store.
12 Se poutèt sa, pèp Izrayèl la p'ap ka kanpe devan lènmi l' yo. Yo gen pou yo kouri devan lènmi yo, paske koulye a se yo menm ki gen pou mouri. Mwen p'ap kanpe la avèk yo ankò, si bagay mwen te ban nou lòd pa pran an nou pa wete l' nan mitan nou pou nou detwi l' tou.
And the children of Israel will not be able to stand before their enemies; they will turn their back before their enemies, for they have become an accursed thing: I will not any longer be with you, unless you remove the cursed thing from yourselves.
13 Leve non! Fè sèvis pou mete pèp la nan kondisyon pou sèvi m'. W'a di yo pou yo pare kò yo pou yo ka nan kondisyon fè sèvis pou mwen denmen, paske mwen menm, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, men sa mwen di: Nou menm pèp Izrayèl, nou gen nan mitan nou bagay mwen te ban nou lòd detwi. Nou p'ap ka kenbe tèt ak lènmi nou yo si nou pa wete l' nan mitan nou.
Rise, sanctify the people and tell them to sanctify themselves for the morrow: thus says the Lord God of Israel, The accursed thing is amongst you; you shall not be able to stand before your enemies, until you shall have removed the cursed thing from amongst you.
14 Se konsa, denmen maten, nou tout n'ap vini, branch fanmi pa branch fanmi. Branch fanmi Seyè a va denonse a va pwoche fanmi pa fanmi. Nan fanmi Seyè a va denonse a, chèf fanmi yo va pwoche yonn apre lòt avèk moun pa yo. Chèf fanmi Seyè a va denonse a va fè moun pa l' yo pwoche grenn pa grenn.
And you shall all be gathered together by your tribes in the morning, and it shall come to pass that the tribe which the Lord shall show, you shall bring by families; and the family which the Lord shall show, you shall bring by households; and the household which the Lord shall show, you shall bring man by man.
15 Moun y'a jwenn avèk bagay la gen pou mouri boule nan dife, ansanm ak tout fanmi l' ak tou sa li genyen, paske li pa respekte kontra Seyè a te pase ak pèp la. Se yon gwo wont pou tout pèp Izrayèl la.
And the man who shall be pointed out, shall be burnt with fire, and all that he has; because he has transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and has wrought wickedness in Israel.
16 Nan denmen maten vre, Jozye leve byen bonè, li fè tout pèp Izrayèl la pwoche vin jwenn li, branch fanmi pa branch fanmi. Se branch fanmi Jida a Seyè a te denonse.
And Joshua rose up early, and brought the people by their tribes; and the tribe of Juda was pointed out.
17 Li fè fanmi Jida yo vin jwenn li yonn apre lòt. Se fanmi Zerak la Seyè a te denonse. Li fè tout chèf fanmi Zerak yo vin jwenn li yonn apre lòt ak tout fanmi yo. Se Zabdi Seyè a te denonse.
And it was brought by their families, and family of the Zaraites was pointed out.
18 Zabdi fè tout moun pa l' yo pwoche grenn pa grenn. Se konsa Seyè a denonse Akan, pitit Kami an. Kami te pitit Zabdi, Zabdi te pitit Zerak, yo tout te fè pati branch fanmi Jida a.
And it was brought man by man, and Achar the son of Zambri the son of Zara was pointed out.
19 Jozye di Akan konsa: -Pitit mwen, fè lwanj Seyè a! Moutre ou gen respe pou Bondye pèp Izrayèl la! Koulye a, di m' kisa ou fè. Pa kache m' anyen.
And Joshua said to Achar, Give glory this day to the Lord God of Israel, and make confession; and tell me what you have done, and hide it not from me.
20 Akan reponn li: -Se vre wi. Se mwen ki peche kont Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la. Men sa m' fè.
And Achar answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned against the Lord God of Israel: thus and thus have I done:
21 Nan bagay nou te pran apre batay la, mwen te wè yon bèl manto ki te soti lavil Babilòn, desan (200) pyès an ajan ki te peze wit liv antou, ak yon gwo moso lò ki te peze de liv. Mwen te sitèlman anvi yo, mwen pran yo. Mwen fouye yon twou nan mitan tant kote m' rete a, mwen antere yo ladan l', avèk pyès ajan yo anba nèt.
I saw in the spoil an embroidered mantle, and two hundred didrachmas of silver, and one golden wedge of fifty didrachmas, and I desired them and took them; and, behold, they are hid in my tent, and the silver is hid under them.
22 Jozye voye kèk mesaje ki kouri al nan tant Akan an. Yo jwenn tout bagay yo nan twou a avèk pyès ajan yo anba nèt.
And Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent into the camp; and these things were hidden in his tent, and the silver under them.
23 Yo pran yo, yo soti avèk yo nan tant lan. Yo pote yo bay Jozye ak tout pèp Izrayèl la. Yo mete yo atè devan Seyè a.
And they brought them out of the tent, and brought them to Joshua and the elders of Israel, and they laid them before the Lord.
24 Jozye, ansanm ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, pran Akan, pyès ajan yo, manto a, moso lò a ansanm ak pitit fi l' yo, pitit gason l' yo, bèlfi li yo, bèf li yo, bourik li yo, mouton l' yo ak tout lòt bagay li te genyen, yo mennen yo nan Fon Malè.
And Joshua took Achar the son of Zara, and brought him to the valley of Achor, and his sons, and his daughters, and his calves, and his asses, and all his sheep, and his tent, and all his property, and all the people [were] with him; and he brought them to Emec Achor.
25 Epi Jozye di Akan konsa: -Poukisa ou rale tout malè sa a sou tèt nou? Jòdi a, Seyè a pral fè malè tonbe sou ou! Epi tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo pran wòch, yo kalonnen yo jouk yo touye yo. Yo boule tout bagay yo nan dife. Yo touye tout fanmi l' yo ak bèt li yo ak koutwòch.
And Joshua said to Achar, Why have you destroyed us? the Lord destroy you as at this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones.
26 Yo mete yon gwo pil wòch sou yo. Gwo pil wòch sa a la jouk jòdi a. Se poutèt sa, jouk jòdi a, yo rele kote sa a Fon Malè. Se konsa Seyè a te sispann move sou pèp la.
And they set up over him a great heap of stones; and the Lord ceased from his fierce anger. Therefore he called the place Emecachor until this day.
