< 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 unfaithfulness in that which had been brought under the curse: Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took of the accursed thing; and the anger of Jehovah was kindled against 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 from Jericho to Ai, which is beside Beth-Aven, on the east side of Bethel, and spoke to them, saying, Go up and spy out the country. And the men went up and spied out Ai.
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; let about two or three thousand men go up and smite Ai; make not all the people to toil thither, for they 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 thither of the people about three thousand men, but they fled before the men of Ai.
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 Ai smote of them about thirty-six men; and they pursued them from before the gate to Shebarim, and smote them on the descent. Then the hearts of the people melted, 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 rent his clothes, and fell to the earth upon his face before the ark of Jehovah until the evening, he and the elders of Israel, and threw dust upon 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, Alas, Lord Jehovah, wherefore hast thou at all brought this people over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us? Oh that we had been content and had remained beyond the Jordan!
8 Tanpri, Mèt mwen! Kisa m' ka di koulye a lè m' wè moun Izrayèl yo ap kouri devan lènmi l' yo?
Ah Lord! what shall I say after Israel have turned their backs before their enemies?
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?
When the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land shall hear [of it], they will surround us, and cut off our name from the earth. And what wilt thou do unto thy great name?
10 Seyè a di Jozye konsa: -Leve non! Poukisa ou lage kò ou atè konsa?
And Jehovah said to Joshua, Rise up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy 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.
Israel hath sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them, and they have even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it among their stuff.
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 shall not be able to stand before their enemies: they shall turn their backs before their enemies, for they have made themselves accursed. I will no more be with you, except ye destroy the accursed thing from your midst.
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 up, hallow the people, and say, Hallow yourselves for to-morrow; for thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, Israel: thou shalt not be able to stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from your midst.
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 ye shall be brought near in the morning according to your tribes; and it shall be, that the tribe which Jehovah taketh shall come forward by families, and the family which Jehovah taketh shall come forward by households; and the household which Jehovah taketh shall come forward 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 it shall be, that he who is taken with the accursed thing shall be burned with fire, he and all that he hath, because he hath transgressed the covenant of Jehovah, and because he hath 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 early in the morning, and caused Israel to come forward by their tribes, and the tribe of Judah was taken.
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 he caused the families of Judah to come forward, and he took the family of the Zarhites. And he caused the family of the Zarhites to come forward man by man, and Zabdi was taken.
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 he caused his household to come forward man by man, and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.
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 Achan, My son, give, I pray thee, glory to Jehovah the God of Israel, and make confession to him: tell me now what thou hast done, keep it not back 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 Achan answered Joshua and said, Indeed I have sinned against Jehovah the God of Israel, and 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 among the spoils a beautiful mantle of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a golden bar of fifty shekels weight, and I coveted them and took them; and behold, they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.
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, and behold, it was hid in his tent, and the silver under it.
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 took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them to Joshua and to all the children of Israel, and laid them out before Jehovah.
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.
Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the mantle, and the bar of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had; and they brought them up into the valley of 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, How hast thou troubled us! Jehovah will trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones; and they burned them with fire, and stoned them 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 raised over him a great heap of stones, [which is there] to this day. And Jehovah turned from the fierceness of his anger. Therefore the name of that place was called, The Valley of Achor, to this day.
