Jij 11
1 Jefte, moun peyi Galarad, te yon vanyan sòlda. Papa l' te rele Galarad. Manman l' te yon jennès.
And Jephthah the Gileadite he was a mighty [man] of strength and he [was] [the] son of a woman a prostitute and he fathered Gilead Jephthah.
2 Madan Galarad te fè lòt pitit gason pou mari l'. Men, lè pitit li yo fin gran, yo mete Jefte deyò nan kay la, yo di l' konsa: -Ou pa gen dwa jwenn anyen nan byen papa nou, paske ou se pitit yon jennès.
And she bore [the] wife of Gilead to him sons and they grew up [the] sons of the wife and they drove out Jephthah and they said to him not you will have an inheritance in [the] house of father our for [are] [the] son of a woman another you.
3 Jefte kouri met deyò pou frè l' yo, l' al rete nan peyi Tòb. Yon bann vòryen vin mete tèt ansanm avèk Jefte. Yo te konn soti avè l' al devalize moun.
And he fled Jephthah [away] from before brothers his and he dwelt in [the] land of Tob and they joined themselves to Jephthah men unprincipled and they went out with him.
4 Kèk tan apre sa, moun Amon yo leve vin fè lagè ak pèp Izrayèl la.
And it was from days and they fought [the] people of Ammon with Israel.
5 Lè moun Amon yo vin atake pèp Izrayèl la, chèf fanmi peyi Galarad la al chache Jefte nan peyi Tòb pou mennen l' tounen.
And it was just when they fought [the] people of Ammon with Israel and they went [the] elders of Gilead to fetch Jephthah from [the] land of Tob.
6 Yo di l' konsa: -Vini non! Pran kòmandman lame nou an pou n' ka goumen ak moun Amon yo.
And they said to Jephthah come! and you will become of us a commander so let us fight against [the] people of Ammon.
7 Men, Jefte di chèf fanmi peyi Galarad yo: -Mwen te kwè nou pa vle wè m'? Nou fòse m' kite lakay papa m'! Koulye a nou nan traka, poukisa se mwen menm nou vin jwenn?
And he said Jephthah to [the] elders of Gilead ¿ not you did you hate me and did you drive out? me from [the] house of father my and why? have you come to me now just when [is] distress to you.
8 Chèf fanmi peyi Galarad yo di Jefte konsa: -Nou vin jwenn ou koulye a, paske nou bezwen pou ou mache ansanm avèk nou, pou ou goumen ak moun Amon yo, pou ou ka chèf tout moun ki rete nan peyi Galarad la.
And they said [the] elders of Gilead to Jephthah therefore now we have returned to you and you will come with us and you will fight against [the] people of Ammon and you will become of us chief of all [the] inhabitants of Gilead.
9 Lè sa a, Jefte di chèf fanmi peyi Galarad yo: -Tansèlman, si nou fè m' tounen lakay pou m' goumen ak moun Amon yo, si Seyè a fè m' kraze yo, se mwen menm k'ap chèf nou tout bon wi!
And he said Jephthah to [the] elders of Gilead if [are] bringing back you me to fight against [the] people of Ammon and he will deliver up Yahweh them before me I I will become of you chief.
10 Chèf fanmi peyi Galarad yo di Jefte konsa: -Nou pran Seyè a sèvi nou temwen! N'ap fè tou sa ou sot di la a.
And they said [the] elders of Gilead to Jephthah Yahweh he will be hearing between us if not according to word your so we will do.
11 Se konsa, Jefte ale avèk chèf fanmi peyi Galarad la, epi yo mete l' chèf pou l' gouvènen yo, pou l' kòmande lame yo. Apre sa, Jefte al repete tout kondisyon sa yo devan Seyè a, lavil Mispa.
And he went Jephthah with [the] elders of Gilead and they made the people him over them into chief and into commander and he spoke Jephthah all words his before Yahweh in Mizpah.
12 Lèfini, Jefte voye mesaje bay wa moun Amon yo pou di l': -Kisa ou gen avèk nou? Poukisa ou vini goumen ak nou jouk nan peyi nou?
And he sent Jephthah messengers to [the] king of [the] people of Ammon saying what? [is] to me and to you that you have come to me to wage war against land my.
13 Wa moun Amon yo reponn mesaje Jefte yo: -Se paske pèp Izrayèl la, lè yo soti kite peyi Lejip, yo pran peyi a nan men nou, depi larivyè Anon jouk larivyè Jabòk ak larivyè Jouden. Koulye a se pou yo renmèt nou tè nou san bri san kont.
And he said [the] king of [the] people of Ammon to [the] messengers of Jephthah that it took Israel land my when came up it from Egypt from [the] Arnon and to the Jabbok and to the Jordan and therefore restore! them in peace.
14 Jefte voye mesaje yo tounen al jwenn wa moun Amon yo,
And he repeated again Jephthah and he sent messengers to [the] king of [the] people of Ammon.
15 avèk repons sa a: -Pèp Izrayèl la pa janm pran ankenn pòsyon nan tè moun Moab yo, ni nan tè moun Amon yo.
And he said to him thus he says Jephthah not it has taken Israel [the] land of Moab and [the] land of [the] people of Ammon.
16 Paske lè pèp Izrayèl la t'ap kite Lejip, yo te mache nan tout dezè a jouk lanmè Wouj yo, epi yo rive Kadès.
That when came up they from Egypt and it went Israel in the wilderness to [the] sea of reed[s] and it came Kadesh towards.
17 Lè sa a, pèp Izrayèl la voye mesaje bò kote wa peyi Edon an pou di l' konsa: Tanpri, kite nou fè yon ti pase nan peyi a. Men, wa peyi Edon an pa t' vle kite yo pase. Yo te voye tou bò kote wa Moab la. Men, li menm tou, li pa t' vle kite yo pase. Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la rete Kadès.
And it sent Israel messengers - to [the] king of Edom - saying let me pass please in land your and not he listened [the] king of Edom and also to [the] king of Moab it sent and not he was willing and it remained Israel at Kadesh.
18 Apre sa, yo pran mache nan dezè a, yo fè yon detou pou yo pa pase nan peyi Edon an ak nan peyi Moab la. Yo rive sou bò solèy leve peyi Moab la, lòt bò larivyè Anon an. Se la yo moute kan yo pou yo rete. Men, yo pa janm janbe lòt bò larivyè Anon paske se li ki te sèvi fwontyè pou peyi Moab la.
And it went in the wilderness and it went around [the] land of Edom and [the] land of Moab and it came from [the] rising of [the] sun of [the] land of Moab and they encamped! on [the] other side of [the] Arnon and not they went in [the] territory of Moab for [the] Arnon [was] [the] border of Moab.
19 Lè sa a pèp Izrayèl la voye mesaje bay Siyon, wa peyi Amori a, ki te rete Esbon. Yo voye mande l' pèmisyon pou yo fè yon ti pase nan peyi l' la pou yo ka rive nan peyi kote yo prale a.
And it sent Israel messengers to Sihon [the] king of the Amorite[s] [the] king of Heshbon and it said to him Israel let us pass please in land your to own place my.
20 Men, Siyon pa t' fè pèp Izrayèl la konfyans, li pa t' kite yo pase. Li sanble tout sòlda li yo, yo vin moute kan yo bò Ajaza, epi yo atake pèp Izrayèl la.
And not he trusted Sihon Israel to pass in territory his and he gathered Sihon all people his and they encamped at Jahaz and he fought with Israel.
21 Men, Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, lage Siyon ansanm ak tout moun li yo nan men pèp Izrayèl la ki bat yo byen bat. Se konsa, pèp Izrayèl la pran peyi a nan men moun Amori yo ki te rete nan zòn lan.
And he gave Yahweh [the] God of Israel Sihon and all people his in [the] hand of Israel and they defeated them and it took possession of Israel all [the] land of the Amorite[s] [who] dwelt of the land that.
22 Yo pran tout peyi moun Amori yo pou yo, soti larivyè Anon bò nan sid jouk larivyè Jabòk bò nan nò, depi dezè a bò solèy leve jouk larivyè Jouden bò solèy kouche.
And they took possession of all [the] territory of the Amorite[s] from [the] Arnon and to the Jabbok and from the wilderness and to the Jordan.
23 Konsa, se Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ki te mete moun Amori yo deyò pou fè plas pou pèp Izrayèl la, pèp li a.
And now Yahweh - [the] God of Israel he has dispossessed the Amorite[s] from before people his Israel and you will you take possession of? it.
24 Koulye a, ou ta vle reprann tè a nan men Seyè a? Eske ou pa kenbe pou ou tou sa Kemòch, bondye ou la, ba ou? Epi ou ta vle pou nou pa kenbe sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ban nou?
¿ Not [that] which he will cause to possess you Chemosh god your it will you take possession of and all that he has dispossessed Yahweh God our from before us it we will take possession of.
25 Eske ou pi bon pase Balak, pitit gason Zipò a, wa peyi Moab la? Li pa janm leve dwèt li sou pèp Izrayèl la, li pa janm leve vin goumen ak nou.
And now ¿ really good [are] you more than Balak [the] son of Zippor [the] king of Moab ¿ really did he quarrel with Israel or? ever did he wage war against them.
26 Pèp Izrayèl la gen twasanzan depi li rete lavil Esbon ak lavil Awoyè ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki sou kont yo, ak tout lavil ki sou de bò larivyè Anon an. Poukisa, depi tout tan sa a, nou pa t' reprann yo?
When dwelt Israel in Heshbon and in daughters its and in Aroer and in daughters its and in all the cities which [were] on [the] sides of [the] Arnon three hundred year[s] and why? not did you recover [them] at the time that.
27 Non. Mwen pa fè nou anyen, se nou menm ki fè m' lè nou vin fè m' lagè. Se Seyè a sèl moun ki pou jije. L'a deside ant pèp Izrayèl la ak pèp Amori a kilès ki gen rezon!
And I not I have sinned to you and you [are] doing with me evil by waging war against me may he judge Yahweh the judge this day between [the] people of Israel and between [the] people of Ammon.
28 Men, wa moun Amori yo pa t' koute mesaj Jefte te voye ba li a.
And not he listened [the] king of [the] people of Ammon to [the] words of Jephthah which he sent to him.
29 Lespri Seyè a te sou Jefte. Jefte travèse peyi Galarad ak peyi Manase, li tounen lavil Mispa nan peyi Galarad. Apre sa, li kite lavil Mispa, li pase nan peyi Amon an.
And it was on Jephthah [the] spirit of Yahweh and he passed through Gilead and Manasseh and he passed through Mizpah of Gilead and from Mizpah of Gilead he he passed on [the] people of Ammon.
30 Jefte te fè Seyè a yon ve. Li te di: -Si ou lage moun Amon yo nan men m',
And he vowed Jephthah a vow to Yahweh and he said certainly [if] you will give [the] people of Ammon in hand my.
31 m'ap ofri ou premye moun ki va soti lakay mwen vin kontre m' lè m'a tounen soti kraze moun Amon yo. M'ap boule l' nèt nan dife pou ou.
And it will be whatever comes out which it will come out from [the] doors of house my to meet me when return I in peace from [the] people of Ammon and it will belong to Yahweh and I will offer up it a burnt offering.
32 Se konsa, Jefte janbe lòt bò fwontyè a, li antre nan peyi moun Amon yo, l' al goumen ak yo. Epi Seyè a lage yo nan men l'.
And he passed on Jephthah to [the] people of Ammon to fight against them (and he gave them *L(abh)*) Yahweh in hand his.
33 Li bat yo depi lavil Awoyè rive nan tout zòn Minit la jouk Abèl Kiramen. Sa te fè vin lavil antou. Yo te touye anpil moun. Se konsa, moun Amon yo vin soumèt devan pèp Izrayèl la.
And he defeated them from Aroer and until coming you Minnith twenty citi[es] and to Abel Keramim a defeat great very and they were subdued [the] people of Ammon from before [the] people of Israel.
34 Lè Jefte tounen lakay li lavil Mispa, vwala se pitit fi li a ki te soti vin kontre l'. Li t'ap danse, li t'ap jwe tanbouren. Se te sèl pitit li te genyen. Li pa t' gen lòt pitit ankò, ni fi ni gason.
And he came Jephthah Mizpah to house his and there! daughter his [was] coming out to meet him with tambourines and with dancing and only she [was] an only [child] not [belonged] to him from him a son or a daughter.
35 Lè Jefte wè li, li chire rad sou li sitèlman sa te fè l' lapenn, li di: -O pitit fi mwen! Ou touye papa ou. Poukisa se ou menm ki pou fè m' tout lapenn sa a! Mwen te fè yon gwo ve bay Seyè a. Koulye a m' pa ka pa kenbe l'.
And it was when saw he her and he tore clothes his and he said alas! O daughter my certainly you have brought low me and you you are among [those who] trouble me and I I have opened mouth my to Yahweh and not I am able to turn back.
36 Pitit fi a di l': -Papa, si ou te fè yon ve bay Seyè a, se pou ou fè m' sa ou te di w'ap fè m' lan, paske Seyè a te ba ou pouvwa pou ou tire revanj sou lènmi ou yo.
And she said to him O father my you have opened mouth your to Yahweh do to me just as it has come out from mouth your after that he did for you Yahweh vengeance from enemies your from [the] people of Ammon.
37 Apre sa li di papa l' konsa: -Yon sèl bagay m'ap mande ou! Ban m' yon ti delè de mwa pou m' al pwonmennen ansanm ak zanmi m' yo nan mòn yo pou m' al kriye, paske mwen pral mouri san m' pa marye.
And she said to father her let it be done for me the thing this refrain from me two months so let me go and I will go down on the mountains so I may weep on virginiti my I (and companions my. *Q(K)*)
38 Jefte kite l' ale pou de mwa. Se konsa, pitit fi Jefte a ansanm ak zanmi l' yo ale nan mòn, y' al kriye paske li tapral mouri tifi.
And he said go and he sent away her two months and she went she and companions her and she wept on virginiti her on the mountains.
39 Sou de mwa, li tounen vin jwenn papa l' ki fè sa l' te pwomèt fè pou Seyè a. Se konsa, li mouri tifi. Se depi lè sa a sa rete yon koutim nan peyi Izrayèl la,
And it was from [the] end of - two months and she returned to father her and he did to her vow his which he had vowed and she not she had known a man and it was a custom in Israel.
40 pou chak lanne medam pèp Izrayèl yo soti al pase kat jou ap kriye pou pitit fi Jefte, moun peyi Galarad la.
From days - days towards they go [the] daughters of Israel to recount for [the] daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in the year.
