Deteronòm 14
1 “Nou se fis a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Nou p ap blese kò nou, ni pase razwa sou fwon nou pou koz lanmò.
'Sons ye [are] to Jehovah your God; ye do not cut yourselves, nor make baldness between your eyes for the dead;
2 Paske nou se yon pèp ki sen a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. SENYÈ a te chwazi ou kòm yon pèp pou pwòp posesyon pa Li, sòti nan tout pèp ki sou sifas tè a.
for a holy people [art] thou to Jehovah thy God, and on thee hath Jehovah fixed to be to Him for a people, a peculiar treasure, out of all the peoples who [are] on the face of the ground.
3 “Nou pa pou manje okenn bagay abominab.
'Thou dost not eat any abominable thing;
4 Sila yo se bèt ke nou kapab manje: bèf, mouton, kabrit,
'this [is] the beast which ye do eat: ox, lamb of the sheep, or kid of the goats,
5 Sèf, kabrit mawon, den, bèf mawon, boukten, antilòp, ak mouton mòn.
hart, and roe, and fallow deer, and wild goat, and pygarg, and wild ox, and chamois;
6 Nenpòt bèt ak zago divize ki remonte manje li pami tout bèt yo, sila nou kapab manje.
and every beast dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft into two hoofs, bringing up the cud, among the beasts — it ye do eat.
7 “Sepandan, pami sila ki remonte manje yo, oswa sila ki divize zago an de yo: chamo, lapèn ak daman; akoz, malgre yo remonte manje, yo pa divize zago yo, yo pa pwòp pou nou.
'Only, this ye do not eat, of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the cloven hoof: the camel, and the hare, and the rabbit, for they are bringing up the cud but the hoof have not divided; unclean they [are] to you;
8 Kochon, paske li divize zago a, men pa remonte manje, li pa pwòp pou nou. Nou pa pou manje anyen nan chè li, ni touche kò mouri yo.
and the sow, for it is dividing the hoof, and not [bringing] up the cud, unclean it [is] to you; of their flesh ye do not eat, and against their carcase ye do not come.
9 “Sila nou kapab manje nan tout sa ki nan dlo yo: Nou ka manje nenpòt sa ki gen zèl naje avèk kal,
'This ye do eat of all that [are] in the waters; all that hath fins and scales ye do eat;
10 men okenn nan yo ki pa gen zèl naje avèk kal, nou pa pou manje yo; se pa pwòp pou nou.
and anything which hath not fins and scales ye do not eat; unclean it [is] to you.
11 “Nou kapab manje nenpòt zwazo ki pwòp.
'Any clean bird ye do eat;
12 Men sila ke nou pa pou manje yo: èg, lòfre ak malfini lanmè,
and these [are] they of which ye do not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
13 milan wouj, otou, votou ak tout kalite parèy yo,
and the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after its kind,
14 kòbo ak tout kalite parèy yo,
and every raven after its kind;
15 otrich, ibou, poul dlo, ak malfini avèk tout kalite parèy yo,
and the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after its kind;
16 koukou, frize, gwo kana mawon blan,
the [little] owl, and the [great] owl, and the swan,
17 grangozye, plonjon, chwèt,
and the pelican, and the gier-eagle, and the cormorant,
18 sigòy, krabye, ak kalite parèy yo, sèpantye, tchotcho ak chòv-souri.
and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat;
19 “Tout reptil avèk zèl pa pwòp pou nou. Yo pa pou manje.
and every teeming thing which is flying, unclean it [is] to you; they are not eaten;
20 Nou kapab manje nenpòt zwazo ki pwòp.
any clean fowl ye do eat.
21 “Nou pa pou manje okenn bagay ki mouri pou kont li. Nou gen dwa bay li a etranje ki rete nan vil nou, pou li kab manje l, oswa nou kapab vann li a yon etranje; paske nou se yon pèp ki sen a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Nou pa pou bouyi yon jenn ti kabrit ki nan lèt manman.
'Ye do not eat of any carcase; to the sojourner who [is] within thy gates thou dost give it, and he hath eaten it; or sell [it] to a stranger; for a holy people thou [art] to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
22 “Chak ane, nou va, anverite, bay ladim nan tout pwodwi a sila ke nou plante yo, ki sòti nan chan.
'Thou dost certainly tithe all the increase of thy seed which the field is bringing forth year by year;
23 Nou va manje nan prezans SENYÈ a, kote Li chwazi pou etabli non Li an, dim a sereyal nou, a diven nèf nou, a lwil nou, premye ne a twoupo nou ak bann mouton nou, pou nou kapab vin aprann krent SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, jis pou tout tan.
and thou hast eaten before Jehovah thy God, in the place where He doth choose to cause His name to tabernacle, the tithe of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herd, and of thy flock, so that thou dost learn to fear Jehovah thy God all the days.
24 “Si distans lan tèlman gran pou nou, pou nou pa kapab pote yon dim, akoz kote SENYÈ Bondye nou an chwazi pou mete non Li an twò lwen nou, lè SENYÈ Bondye nou an, beni nou,
'And when the way is too much for thee, that thou art not able to carry it — when the place is too far off from thee which Jehovah thy God doth choose to put His name there, when Jehovah thy God doth bless thee; —
25 alò, nou va twoke li pou lajan; epi mare lajan an nan men nou pou ale kote SENYÈ Bondye nou an, chwazi a.
then thou hast given [it] in money, and hast bound up the money in thy hand, and gone unto the place on which Jehovah thy God doth fix;
26 Nou kapab depanse lajan an pou nenpòt sa ke kè nou dezire: pou bèf kabwèt, oswa mouton, oswa diven, oswa bwason ki fò, oswa nenpòt sa kè nou dezire; epi la, nou va manje nan prezans SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an; epi rejwi nou menm avèk tout lakay nou.
and thou hast given the money for any thing which thy soul desireth, for oxen, and for sheep, and for wine, and for strong drink, and for any thing which thy soul asketh, and thou hast eaten there before Jehovah thy God, and thou hast rejoiced, thou and thy house.
27 Osi, nou p ap neglije Levit ki nan vil nou an, paske li pa gen pati ni eritaj pami nou.
As to the Levite who [is] within thy gates, thou dost not forsake him, for he hath no portion and inheritance with thee.
28 “Nan fen chak twazyèm ane, nou va pote tout dim a sila nou pwodwi pou ane sa a, e nou va depoze li nan pwòp vil pa nou an.
'At the end of three years thou dost bring out all the tithe of thine increase in that year, and hast placed [it] within thy gates;
29 Levit la, akoz li pa gen pati oswa eritaj pami nou, e etranje, òfelen, ak vèv ki nan vil nou yo, yo va manje e satisfè, jis pou SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, beni nou nan tout travay ke men nou fè.
and come in hath the Levite (for he hath no part and inheritance with thee), and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who [are] within thy gates, and they have eaten, and been satisfied, so that Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou dost.
