Levitik 26
1 Seyè a di: -Nou pa gen dwa fè zidòl, nou pa gen dwa fè estati, ni mete wòch kanpe. Nou pa gen dwa pran wòch pou fè desen sou li, lèfini pou n' mete l' kanpe yon kote nan peyi a pou nou adore yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
“‘You shall make for yourselves no idols, and you shall not raise up an engraved image or a pillar, and you shall not place any figured stone in your land, to hawa ·bow low, prostrate· to it; for I am Adonai your God.
2 Se pou nou fete tout fèt mwen yo. Se pou nou respekte kay ki apa pou mwen an. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
“‘You shall keep my Shab'totay ·Intermissions·, and have reverence for my sanctuary. I am Adonai.
3 Si nou mache dapre lòd mwen yo, si nou kenbe tout kòmandman m' yo, si nou swiv yo,
“‘If you walk in my statutes, and keep my mitzvot ·instructions·, and do them;
4 lè sezon an rive, m'a ban nou lapli. Konsa, tè nou va bay rekòt, pyebwa nan jaden nou va donnen.
then I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
5 Lè sa a, nou p'ap anko fin bat ble, n'ap gen tan nan keyi rezen. Nou p'ap ankò fin keyi rezen, n'ap gen tan nan plante grenn. N'a gen kont manje pou nou manje, epi n'a rete nan peyi nou an san nou pa bezwen pè anyen.
Your threshing shall reach to the vintage, and the vintage shall reach to the sowing time. You shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
6 M'a mete kè poze nan peyi a, n'a kouche dòmi san kè sote. M'ap fè tout bèt mawon disparèt nan peyi a, moun p'ap vin fè nou lagè ankò.
“‘I will give peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and no one will make you afraid. I will remove evil animals out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.
7 N'a kouri dèyè lènmi nou yo, n'a bat yo, n'a kraze yo ak nepe nou.
You shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
8 Senk moun nan mitan nou va kont pou bat san lènmi, san moun nan mitan nou va kont pou bat mil lènmi. N'a kraze lènmi nou yo anba kout nepe nou yo.
Five of you shall chase one hundred, and one hundred of you shall chase ten thousand; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
9 M'a beni nou, m'a ban nou pitit, m'a ban nou anpil pitit. Mwen menm, m'a kenbe kontra mwen te siyen ak nou an.
“‘I will have respect for you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and will establish my covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties· with you.
10 N'a sitèlman fè bèl rekòt, apre nou fin manje pandan ennan, n'a setoblije mete rès grenn dènye rekòt la deyò pou nou fè plas pou rekòt k'ap vin apre a.
You shall eat old store long kept, and you shall move out the old because of the new.
11 M'ap rete nan mitan nou nan kay mwen an, m'ap toujou kontan ak nou.
I will set my tent among you, and my soul won’t abhor you.
12 M'a toujou la nan mitan nou, se mwen menm k'ap Bondye nou, se pèp mwen n'a ye.
I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you will be my people.
13 Se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip pou nou pa t' rete esklav moun sa yo ankò. Mwen kase gwo kòd lwijanboje ki t'ap jouke nou an, mwen fè nou mache tèt anlè.
I am Adonai your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], that you should not be their slaves. I have broken the bars of your yoke, and made you go upright.
14 Men tou, si nou pa koute m', si nou pa vle fè tou sa m' mande nou fè la a, m'ap peni nou.
“‘But if you will not sh'ma ·hear obey· me, and will not do all these mitzvot ·instructions·;
15 Si nou meprize lòd mwen yo, si nou voye kòmandman mwen yo jete, si nou pa fè tou sa mwen mande nou fè, si nou pa kenbe kontra m' pase ak nou an,
and if you shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhors my judgments, so that you will not do all my mitzvot ·instructions·, but break my covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties·;
16 men ki jan m'ap peni nou: M'ap voye gwo malè sou nou. Maladi ap mennen nou. Lafyèb ap fè nou deperi. Nou p'ap ka wè nan je nou, n'ap pèdi souf nou. Nou va simen grenn nan jaden nou. Men, sa p'ap sèvi nou anyen, paske se lènmi nou yo ki va jwi rekòt nou yo.
I also will do this to you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away. You will sow your seed in vain, for your enemies will eat it.
17 M'a vire do ban nou, epi lènmi nou va bat nou. Moun ki pa vle wè nou yo va donminen sou nou. N'a rete konsa, n'a pran kouri san pa gen pesonn k'ap kouri dèyè nou.
I will set my face against you, and you will be struck before your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you; and you will flee when no one pursues you.
18 Si, atousa toujou, nou pa koute m', m'ap peni nou sèt fwa pi rèd pase anvan poutèt peche nou yo.
“‘If you in spite of these things will not sh'ma ·hear obey· me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your habitual sins ·missing the marks·.
19 Pouvwa nou genyen an epi k'ap fè nou gonfle konsa a, m'ap kraze l' nèt. Pa yon ti degout lapli p'ap tonbe sot nan syel la, tè a ap vin di kou wòch.
I will break the pride of your power, and I will make your sky like iron, and your soil like bronze.
20 N'a kraze kouraj nou travay di, men sa p'ap sèvi nou anyen: tè jaden nou yo p'ap bay anyen ankò, pyebwa yo p'ap donnen menm.
Your strength will be spent in vain; for your land won’t yield its increase, neither will the trees of the land yield their fruit.
21 Si, apre sa, nou vle kenbe tèt ak mwen toujou, si nou derefize koute m', mwen menm tou m'ap peni nou sèt fwa pi rèd toujou pase anvan poutèt peche nou yo.
“‘If you walk contrary to me, and won’t sh'ma ·hear obey· me, then I will bring seven times more plagues on you according to your habitual sins ·missing the marks·.
22 M'a lage bèt nan bwa dèyè nou, y'a touye pitit nou yo, y'a fini ak tout zannimo nou yo. Anpil nan nou va mouri tou. p'ap gen pesonn ap mache sou chemen nan peyi a.
I will send the wild animals among you, which will rob you of your children, destroy your livestock, and make you few in number. Your roads will become desolate.
23 Si apre tout malè sa yo nou pa korije toujou, n'ap kenbe tèt avè m' toujou,
“‘If by these things you won’t be reformed to me, but will walk contrary to me;
24 mwen menm tou m'a kenbe tèt avèk nou. M'ap frape nou sèt fwa pi rèd ankò pase anvan poutèt peche nou yo.
then I will also walk contrary to you; and I will strike you, even I, seven times for your habitual sins ·missing the marks·.
25 M'ap fè lènmi nou yo vin fè nou lagè poutèt kontra m' nou pa kenbe a. Lè sa a, n'a anpile kò nou nan lavil yo pou chache pwoteksyon, m'a voye tout kalite move maladi sou nou, jouk n'a blije rann tèt nou bay lènmi nou yo.
I will bring a sword upon you that will execute the vengeance of the covenant. You will be gathered together within your cities, and I will send the pestilence among you. You will be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
26 M'ap koupe viv nou. Yon sèl fou ap kont pou dis fanm pare pen pou tout fanmi yo. Y'a kontwole sa y'ap bay chak moun. Lè n'a fin manje, se atò n'a grangou.
When I break your staff of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver your bread again by weight. You shall eat, and not be satisfied.
27 Epi, si apre tou sa toujou, nou pa koute m', n'ap kenbe tèt avè m' toujou,
“‘If you in spite of this won’t sh'ma ·hear obey· me, but walk contrary to me;
28 lè sa a m'a kenbe tèt ak nou tou, m'a pran chenn sou nou. Se mwen menm toujou k'ap peni nou sèt fwa pi rèd pase anvan poutèt peche nou yo.
then I will walk contrary to you in wrath. I will also chastise you seven times for your habitual sins ·missing the marks·.
29 N'a sitèlman grangou n'a touye pwòp pitit gason ak pwòp pitit fi nou yo, n'a manje vyann yo.
You will eat the flesh of your sons, and you will eat the flesh of your daughters.
30 M'a detwi tout kay nou bati sou tèt mòn pou fè sèvis, m'a kraze lotèl lansan nou yo mete atè, m'a anpile kadav nou yo atè sou moso estati vye zidòl nou yo. N'a ban m' degoutans.
I will destroy your high places, and cut down your incense altars, and cast your dead bodies upon the bodies of your idols; and my soul will abhor you.
31 M'a fè lavil nou yo tounen mazi. M'ap detwi tout kote nou fè sèvis yo. M'ap derefize pran bon sant ofrann nou yo.
I will lay your cities waste, and will bring your sanctuaries to desolation. I will not take delight in the sweet fragrance of your offerings.
32 Se mwen menm ankò ki pral devaste peyi nou an. Ata lènmi nou yo ki pral pran peyi a pou yo rete pral sezi wè sa m'ap fè.
I will bring the land into desolation; and your enemies that dwell therein will be astonished at it.
33 M'ap mennen lènmi nou yo vin fè nou lagè. M'ap leve moun dèyè nou pou vin fè nou lagè. M'ap gaye nou nan mitan lòt peyi etranje yo. Peyi a va tounen yon dezè. Lavil nou p'ap gen pesonn rete ladan yo.
I will scatter you among the nations, and I will draw out the sword after you. Your land will be a desolation, and your cities shall be a waste.
34 Lè sa a, tè a va pran repo. Wi, lè lènmi nou yo va depòte nou byen lwen nan peyi pa yo, tè a va rete san travay, l'a pran repo.
Then the land will enjoy its Shab'totay ·Intermissions· as long as it lies desolate and you are in your enemies’ land. Even then the land will rest and enjoy its Shab'totay ·Intermissions·.
35 Pandan tout tan tè a va rete san travay la, l'a jwi tout lanne repo nou pa t' ba li yo lè nou te rete sou li a.
As long as it lies desolate it shall have rest, even the rest which it didn’t have in your Shab'totay ·Intermissions·, when you lived on it.
36 Kanta pou rès moun ki pa mouri yo, lè y'a rive nan peyi kote yo depòte yo a, m'ap fè yo viv tout tan ak yon kè sote san rete. Konsa, bri yon fèy bwa chèch van ap pote ap kont pou fè yo kouri. Y'ap kouri tankou moun ki gen lagè dèyè yo, y'ap tonbe san pa gen moun k'ap kouri dèyè yo.
“‘As for those of you who are left, I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies. The sound of a driven leaf will put them to flight; and they shall flee, as one flees from the sword. They will fall when no one pursues.
37 Y'ap tonbe yonn sou lòt tankou nan lagè san pa gen pesonn k'ap kouri dèyè yo. Yo p'ap fouti kanpe pou yo goumen ak lènmi yo.
They will stumble over one another, as it were before the sword, when no one pursues. You will have no power to stand before your enemies.
38 N'a mouri nan peyi kote yo te depòte nou yo. Y'a antere nou nan peyi moun ki pa vle wè nou yo.
You will perish among the nations. The land of your enemies will eat you up.
39 Moun ki rete nan sa yo te depòte yo va depafini nan peyi lènmi nou yo, paske y'a peye pou peche zansèt yo ak pou pwòp peche pa yo.
Those of you who are left will pine away in their depravity (moral evil) in your enemies’ lands; and also in the depravities (moral evils) of their fathers they shall pine away with them.
40 Men, lè sa a pitit pitit nou yo va rekonèt peche yo ak peche zansèt yo, peche yo te fè paske yo te refize fè sa m' te di yo fè, peche yo te fè paske yo te kenbe tèt avè m'.
“‘If they yadah ·extend hands in confession· of their depravity (moral evil), and the depravity (moral evil) of their fathers, in their treachery which they hostility against me, and also that, because they walked contrary to me,
41 Se poutèt sa mwen menm tou, mwen te kenbe tèt ak yo, mwen te mennen yo prizonye nan peyi lènmi yo. Lè sa a, moun ki te gen lògèy plen kè yo va soumèt devan m', y'a peye pou sa yo te fè a.
I also walked contrary to them, and brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised heart is humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their depravity (moral evil);
42 Mwen menm m'a chonje kontra mwen te pase avèk Jakòb, avèk Izarak epi avèk Abraram. Wi, m'a chonje pwomès mwen te fè yo ak peyi mwen te di m'ap ba yo a.
then I will remember my covenant with Jacob [Supplanter]; and also my covenant with Isaac [Laughter], and also my covenant with Abraham [Father of a multitude]; and I will remember the land.
43 Men, yo gen pou yo pati byen lwen, pou yo kite peyi a san moun pou tè a ka pran repo li. Wi, y'a peye pou sa yo te fè a, paske yo pa t' swiv prensip mwen te ba yo, paske yo te voye kòmandman m' yo jete.
The land also will be left by them, and will enjoy its Shab'totay ·Intermissions· while it lies desolate without them: and they will accept the punishment of their depravity (moral evil); because, even because they rejected my judgments, and their soul abhorred my statutes.
44 Men, menm lè sa a, antan yo la toujou nan peyi lènmi yo, mwen p'ap meprize yo, mwen p'ap lage yo jouk pou m' ta fini ak yo nèt. Mwen p'ap kase kontra m' pase ak yo a. Paske se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye yo a.
Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them; for I am Adonai their God;
45 Men, m'a fè pa yo, m'a chonje kontra mwen te pase avèk zansèt yo lè mwen te fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip devan je moun lòt nasyon yo pou m' te ka Bondye yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
but I will for their sake remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery] in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am Adonai.’”
46 Men tout prensip, tout lòd ak tout kòmandman Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd mete nan kontra li te siyen ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo sou mòn Sinayi a.
These are the statutes, judgments and torot ·teachings·, which Adonai made between him and the children of Israel [God prevails] in Mount Sinai [Thorn] by Moses [Drawn out].
