1 Istwa 5

1 Alò, fis a Ruben yo, premye ne an Israël la (paske se te premye ne li te ye, men akoz li te konwonpi kabann papa li, dwa nesans li te bay a fis a Joseph yo, fis Israël la; epi pou sa, li pa anwole nan istwa desandan yo selon dwa nesans lan.

And the sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel—for he was the first-born; but, when the defiled his father's bed, was his birthright given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: so that the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the first-birth.

But they trespassed against the God of their fathers, and went astray after the gods of the people of the land, whom God had destroyed from before them.

26 Pou sa, Bondye Israël la te chofe lespri a Pul, wa Assyrie a, menm lespri a Tilgath-Pilnéser, wa Assyrie a e li te pote yo ale an egzil, menm Ribenit yo, Gadit yo ak mwatye tribi Manassé yo e te fè yo rive nan Chalach, nan Chabor, nan Hara ak nan flèv Gozan nan, kote yo rete menm jis rive jodi a.
