Deteronòm 30
1 “Konsa li va ye lè tout bagay sa yo fin vini sou nou, benediksyon an avèk madichon an ke mwen te mete devan nou pou nou sonje yo nan tout nasyon kote SENYÈ a va egzile nou yo,
And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt take them to heart among all the nations whither Jehovah thy God hath driven thee,
2 epi ou retounen kote SENYÈ Bondye ou, pou obeyi vwa Li ak tout ke e tout nanm ou, selon tout sa ke M kòmande ou jodi a, ou menm anplis ak fis ou yo.
and shalt return to Jehovah thy God, and shalt hearken to his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy sons, with all thy heart and with all thy soul;
3 Konsa SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va restore nou apre kaptivite sila a e Li va vin gen konpasyon sou nou. Li va ranmase nou ankò sòti nan tout pèp kote SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te gaye nou yo.
that then Jehovah thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will gather thee again from all the peoples whither Jehovah thy God hath scattered thee.
4 Si moun egzil sa yo nan lòt pwent tè a, soti la, SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va ranmase nou. Epi soti la, Li va mennen nou tounen.
Though there were of you driven out unto the end of the heavens, from thence will Jehovah thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee;
5 SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va mennen nou antre nan peyi ke zansèt nou yo te posede a. Nou va posede li, epi Li va fè nou pwospere e vin miltipliye plis ke zansèt nou yo.
and Jehovah thy God will bring thee into the land that thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.
6 Anplis, SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va sikonsi kè nou ak kè desandan nou yo, pou renmen SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, avèk tout kè nou e avèk tout nanm nou, pou nou kapab viv.
And Jehovah thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.
7 SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va aflije lènmi nou yo avèk tout madichon sa yo ansanm ak sila ki rayi nou yo, ki te pèsekite nou yo.
And Jehovah thy God will put all these curses on thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, who have persecuted thee.
8 Konsa, nou va ankò obeyi SENYÈ a e obsève tout kòmandman li yo ke Mwen te kòmande nou jodi a.
But thou shalt return and hearken to the voice of Jehovah, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.
9 Epi SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, va fè nou vin pwospere anpil nan travay men nou, nan fwi zantray nou yo, nan pòtre a bèt nou yo ak nan pwodwi ki sòti nan tè yo; paske SENYÈ a va ankò rejwi de nou pou bonte nou, jis jan ke Li te rejwi de zansèt nou yo,
And Jehovah thy God will make thee abound in every work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, for good; for Jehovah will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers;
10 si nou obeyi SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou kenbe kòmandman Li yo ak lwa Li yo ki ekri nan liv lalwa sila a, si nou vire vè SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, avèk tout kè ak nanm nou.
if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if thou turn to Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
11 “Paske kòmandman sila ke mwen bannou jodi a pa twò difisil pou nou, ni li pa twò wo pou nou pa rive kote l.
For this commandment which I command thee this day is not too wonderful for thee, neither is it far off.
12 Li pa nan syèl la, pou nou ta di: ‘Kilès ki va monte nan syèl la pou pran li pou nou e fè nou tande li, pou nou kapab swiv li?’
It is not in the heavens, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to the heavens, and bring it to us, that we should hear it and do it?
13 Ni li pa lòtbò lanmè a, pou nou ta di: ‘Kilès k ap travèse lanmè a, pou pran li pou nou e fè nou tande li, pou nou kapab swiv li.’
And it is not beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, that we should hear it and do it?
14 Men pawòl la toupre nou, nan bouch nou ak nan kè nou, pou nou kapab swiv li.
For the word is very near to thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
15 Nou wè, jodi a Mwen te mete devan nou lavi avèk abondans, oswa lanmò avèk tout sa ki pa bon.
See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil,
16 Nan tout sa mwen kòmande nou jodi a pou renmen SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou mache nan chemen Li yo, epi pou kenbe kòmandman Li yo avèk lwa Li yo ak jijman Li yo, pou nou kapab viv e miltipliye, e pou SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, kapab beni nou nan peyi kote nou ap antre pou posede a.
in that I command thee this day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that thou mayest live and multiply, and that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
17 Men si kè nou detounen e nou refize obeyi, men nou mennen akote pou adore lòt dye yo e sèvi yo,
But if thy heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and thou shalt bow down to other gods and serve them;
18 Mwen deklare a nou jodi a ke nou va vrèman peri. Nou p ap pwolonje jou nou yo nan peyi kote nou ap travèse Jourdain an pou antre posede a.
I denounce unto you this day that ye shall surely perish; ye shall not prolong your days upon the land whereunto thou passest over the Jordan to possess it.
19 Mwen rele syèl la avèk tè a pou fè temwayaj kont nou jodi a, ke mwen te mete devan nou lavi avèk lanmò, benediksyon avèk malediksyon. Pou sa, chwazi lavi pou nou kapab viv, nou menm avèk desandan nou yo,
I call heaven and earth to witness this day against you: life and death have I set before you, blessing and cursing: choose then life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed,
20 nan renmen SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an ak nan obeyisans a vwa Li ak nan kenbe fèm a Li. Paske sa se lavi nou ak pwolongasyon a jou nou yo, pou nou kapab viv nan peyi ke SENYÈ a te sèmante a zansèt nou yo; a Abraham, Isaac e a Jacob, pou bay yo a.”
in loving Jehovah thy God, in hearkening to his voice, and in cleaving to him — for this is thy life and the length of thy days — that thou mayest dwell in the land which Jehovah swore unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
