< Resansman 21 >

1 Wa lavil Arad la, nan rejyon Negèv la, te yon moun peyi Kanaran. Lè li vin tande moun pèp Izrayèl yo t'ap vini sou chemen ki mennen Atarim lan, l' al atake yo. Li fè kèk ladan yo prizonye.
And when the Canaanite, the king of 'Arad, who dwelt in the south, heard that Israel was coming by the way of the spies: he made an attack on Israel, and took from them some prisoners.
2 Lè sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo fè yon ve bay Seyè a, yo di konsa: -Si ou lage moun sa yo nan men nou, n'ap mete yo tout apa pou ou ansanm ak tout lavil yo. N'ap detwi yo nèt.
And Israel made a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou wilt but deliver this people into my hand, then will I devote their cities.
3 Seyè a tande sa yo te mande l' la, epi li ede yo, li fè yo mete men sou moun Kanaran yo. Moun pèp Izrayèl yo disparèt tout moun yo ansanm ak tout lavil yo. Se poutèt sa yo rele kote sa a Oma.
And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Israel, and he delivered up the Canaanites; and they devoted them and their cities: and they called the name of the place Chormah.
4 Moun Izrayèl yo pati, yo kite mòn Or la, yo pran wout ki mennen bò Lanmè Wouj la, pou yo pa pase nan peyi Edon an. Men, antan y'ap vwayaje a, pèp la vin dekouraje.
And they set forward from mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to go round the land of Edom: and the spirit of the people became impatient because of the way.
5 Pèp la pale Bondye ansanm ak Moyiz mal, yo leve dèyè yo, yo di konsa: -Poukisa nou fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip la? Gen lè se pou fè nou vin mouri nan dezè sa a kote ki pa gen ni manje ni dlo. Nou bouke manje vye manje sa a ki pa ka fè anyen pou nou ankò.
And the people spoke against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loatheth this miserable bread.
6 Lè sa a, Seyè a voye yon bann ti sèpan sou pèp la. Kote sèpan sa yo mòde ou la boule kou dife. Yo mòde pèp la. Anpil moun te mouri.
And the Lord let loose against the people poisonous serpents, and they bit the people; and there died much people of Israel.
7 Pèp la vin jwenn Moyiz, yo di l' konsa: -Nou rekonèt nou fè sa ki mal lè nou pale kont Seyè a ak kont ou menm tou. Tanpri, lapriyè Seyè a pou nou pou l' fè sèpan sa yo ale. Moyiz lapriyè pou pèp la vre.
And the people then came to Moses, and they said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray unto the Lord, that he take away from us the serpents. And Moses prayed for the people.
8 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Fè pòtre yon sèpan parèy ak sèpan sa yo. Mete l' sou yon poto byen wo. Konsa, depi yon sèpan mòde yon moun, moun lan va annik gade pòtre sèpan an, epi li p'ap mouri.
And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thyself a serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that whoever is bitten shall look at it, and he shall live.
9 Moyiz pran kwiv, li fonn li, li fè yon sèpan parèy ak sèpan yo. Lèfini, li mete l' sou yon poto byen wo. Tout moun sèpan mòde, depi yo voye je yo gade sèpan an kwiv la, yo pa mouri.
And Moses made a serpent of copper, and put it upon a pole; and it came to pass, that, when a serpent had bitten any man, and he looked up to the serpent of copper, he remained alive.
10 Moun pèp Izrayèl yo pati, y' al moute kan yo nan fon Obòt la.
And the children of Israel set forward, and encamped in Oboth.
11 Apre sa, yo kite fon Obòt, y' al moute kan yo bò mazi Abarim yo nan dezè ki sou bò lès peyi Moab la.
And they journeyed from Oboth, and encamped at 'Iye-ha'abarim, in the wilderness, which is before Moab, toward the rising of the sun.
12 Apre sa ankò, yo kite kote yo te ye a, y' al moute kan yo nan ravin Zerèd.
From there they set forward and encamped in the valley of Zered.
13 Lè yo kite ravin Zerèd, y' al moute kan yo lòt bò larivyè Anon nan dezè ki rive jouk nan teritwa moun Amori yo. Rivyè Anon sa a te sèvi fwontyè ant peyi Moab ak peyi Amori a.
From there they set forward, and encamped on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness, and which cometh out of the boundary of the Emorites; for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and between the Emorites.
14 Se poutèt sa, nan liv istwa ki rakonte batay Seyè a, nou jwenn yo pale sou lavil Vayèb, nan peyi Soufa a, ak ravin li yo, sou rivyè Anon
Therefore mention is made in the book of the wars of the Lord, of Vaheb in Supha, and of the brooks of Arnon,
15 avèk fon lavalas li yo, ki desann bò lavil Amoab la nan direksyon fwontyè peyi Moab la.
And the descent of the brooks, that turneth toward Shebeth-'Ar, and leaneth upon the border of Moab;
16 Apre sa, yo kite kote yo te ye a, y' al yon kote yo rele Beyè. Se la Seyè a te pale ak Moyiz, lè li te di l': Reyini tout pèp la. Mwen pral ba yo dlo.
And from there to the well; this is the well where the Lord said unto Moses, Assemble the people and I will give them water.
17 Lè sa a, moun Izrayèl yo pran chante chante sa a: Pi a bay dlo! Annou chante pou sa!
Then did Israel sing this song, Come up, O well; sing ye unto it:
18 Pi chèf yo te fouye Avèk baton kòmandan yo! Pi grannèg yo te fouye Avèk baton yo sèvi lè y'ap mache a! Apre sa, yo kite dezè a, y' al moute kan yo Matana.
Well, which the princes have dug, which the nobles of the people have hollowed out with the sceptre, with their staves; — and from the wilderness to Mattanah;
19 Lè yo kite Matana, y' ale Nakalyèl. Lè yo kite Nakalyèl, yo moute Bannòt.
And from Mattanah to Nachaliel; and from Nachaliel to Bamoth;
20 Lè yo kite Bannòt, y' ale nan fon ki nan peyi Moab la, jouk sou tèt mòn Pisga, kote y'ap gade tout dezè a nan pye yo.
And from Bamoth to the valley, which is in the fields of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looketh toward the desert.
21 Lè sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo voye mesaje bò kote Siyon, wa peyi Amori a, pou di l' konsa:
And Israel sent messengers unto Sichon the king of the Emorites, saying,
22 -Kite nou pase ase nan mitan peyi ou la! Nou p'ap kite wout nou pou pase nan mitan jaden ou, ni nan mitan pye rezen ou yo. Ata bwè nou p'ap bwè dlo nan pi ou yo. N'ap rete sou gran chemen ou va moutre nou an, jouk n'a fin travèse lòt bò peyi ou la.
Let me pass through thy land; we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink the water of a well: by the king's highway will we go along, until we have passed thy border.
23 Men, Siyon pa t' vle kite pèp Izrayèl la pase sou tè li yo. Li leve tout pèp l' a, li mache sou moun pèp Izrayèl yo, l' al kontre ak yo yon kote nan dezè a yo rele Jaza, l' atake yo.
But Sichon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border; and Sichon assembled all his people together; and went out against Israel into the wilderness; and he came to Yahaz, and fought against Israel.
24 Men, moun Izrayèl yo touye anpil ladan yo nan batay la, yo pran tout peyi a nan men yo, depi larivyè Anon nan sid rive larivyè Jabòk nan nò, toupre fwontyè peyi Amon an, ki te yon fwontyè byen gade.
And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and took possession of his land from Arnon unto Yabbok, even unto the children of 'Ammon; for the border of the children of 'Ammon was strong.
25 Se konsa, moun Izrayèl yo pran tout lavil moun Amori yo, depi Esbon, kapital la ak lòt ti bouk nan vwazinaj li ki te sou kont li, epi yo rete ladan yo tout.
And Israel took all these cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Emorites, in Cheshbon, and in all the villages thereof.
26 Lavil Esbon te kapital peyi a. Se la Siyon, wa peyi Amori a, te rete. Se menm Siyon sa a ki te goumen kont ansyen wa peyi Moab la epi ki te pran tout peyi a pou li jouk larivyè Anon.
For Cheshbon was the city of Sichon the king of the Emorites; and he had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, up to the Arnon.
27 Se poutèt sa sanba yo di: -Ann ale Esbon! Ann al bati l' ankò! Ann al mete lavil wa Siyon an kanpe sou de pye l' ankò!
Therefore said the poets, Come into Cheshbon, let the city of Sichon be built and established.
28 Paske yon sèl dife te soti lavil Esbon, Wi, lame wa Siyon an derape tankou yon flanm dife, li boule lavil A Moab. Li devore tout chèf ki rete sou mòn Anon an.
For a fire is gone out of Cheshbon, a flame from the city of Sichon: it hath consumed 'Ar-Moab, the men of the high places of the Arnon.
29 Sa pral rèd nèt pou nou, moun peyi Moab! Nou pèdi nèt, nou menm sèvitè Kemòch! Bondye nou an fè pitit gason nou yo kouri al kache. Li kite pitit fi nou yo tounen prizonye nan men Siyon, wa peyi Amori a.
Woe to thee, Moab! thou art lost, O people of Kemosh: he hath suffered his sons to become fugitives, and his daughters to go into captivity, unto the king of the Emorites, Sichon.
30 Men koulye a, se moun lavil Esbon yo ki pèdi nèt fwa sa a! Nou mete kou sou yo depi lavil Esbon rive Dibon! Nou devaste peyi a kite l' blanch jouk Nofak, toupre Medeba.
We have thrown them down; lost is Cheshbon even unto Dibon, and we have laid waste [all] up to Nophach, which reacheth unto Medeba.
31 Se konsa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo vin rete nan peyi Amori a.
Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Emorites.
32 Moyiz menm voye kèk moun wè ki jan sa ye nan lavil Jazè. Apre sa, moun Izrayèl yo mache pran lavil la ak lòt ti bouk ki nan vwazinaj li. Kote yo pase, yo mete moun Amori yo deyò lakay yo.
And Moses sent to spy out Ya'zer, and they captured the villages thereof, and drove out the Emorites that were there.
33 Apre sa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo tounen sou wout yo, yo pran chemen ki mennen lavil Bazan. Epi Og, wa lavil Bazan an, leve tout pèp l' a, li vin kontre ak yo pou l' atake yo bò Edreyi.
And they turned and went up by the way to Bashan; and 'Og, the king of Bashan, went out against them, he, and all his people, to the battle at Edrei.
34 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Ou pa bezwen pè msye! M'ap fè nou kraze l' anba pye nou, li menm ansanm ak tout pèp l' a. M'ap fè nou pran peyi l' la pou nou. Nou pral fè l' pase sa nou te fè Siyon, wa peyi Amori ki te rete Esbon an, pase.
And the Lord said unto Moses, Fear him not; for into thy hand have I delivered him, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do unto him as thou hast done unto Sichon, the king of the Emorites, who dwelt at Cheshbon.
35 Se konsa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo touye Og, ansanm ak pitit gason l' yo ak tout pèp l' a. Yo pa kite yonn chape, yo pran tout peyi a pou yo.
And they smote him and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left unto him that escaped; and they took possession of his land.
