< Deteronòm 8 >
1 “Tout kòmandman ke Mwen ap kòmande nou jodi a, nou va fè atansyon pou fè yo, pou nou kapab viv, miltipliye, e antre ladann pou posede peyi ke SENYÈ a te sèmante a zansèt nou yo.
All the commandment which I [am] commanding you this day you will take care! to observe so that you may live! and you will increase and you will go and you will take possession of the land which he swore Yahweh to ancestors your.
2 “Nou va sonje tout jan ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te mennen nou nan dezè a pandan karantan sila yo, pou Li te kapab fè nou vin enb e pase nou a leprèv, pou konnen kisa ki te nan kè nou, pou wè si nou pa tap kenbe kòmandman Li yo.
And you will remember all the way which he led you Yahweh God your this forty year[s] in the wilderness so as to humble you to put to [the] test you to know [that] which [was] in heart your ¿ will you keep (commandments his *Q(K)*) or? not.
3 “Li te fè nou vin enb e grangou. Epi konsa, Li te bannou manje lamàn ke nou pa t janm konnen, ni zansèt nou yo pa t konnen, pou Li te kapab fè nou konprann ke lòm pa viv sèlman pa pen, men lòm viv pa tout bagay ki sòti nan bouch SENYÈ a.
And he humbled you and he caused to hunger you and he caused to eat you (*L(abh)*) the manna which not you had known and not they had known! ancestors your so as to make know you that not on the bread by only it he lives humankind for on every utterance of [the] mouth of Yahweh he lives humankind.
4 Rad nou yo pa t epwize sou nou, ni pye nou pa t anfle pandan karantan sila yo.
Clothing your not it wore out from on you and foot your not it swelled this forty year[s].
5 Konsa, nou fèt pou konnen nan kè nou, ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, t ap korije nou jis jan ke yon mesye korije fis li.
And you will know with heart your that just as he disciplines everyone child his Yahweh God your [is] disciplining you.
6 “Pou sa, nou va kenbe kòmandman a SENYÈ yo, Bondye nou an, pou mache nan chemen Li an, e pou krent Li.
And you will keep [the] commandments of Yahweh God your by walking in ways his and by fearing him.
7 Paske SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ap mennen nou antre nan yon bon peyi, yon peyi ki gen anpil ti rivyè ak sous dlo; sous k ap koule, k ap kouri nan vale ak ti mòn yo;
For Yahweh God your [will] bring you into a land good a land of torrents of water springs and deeps [which] go forth in the valley and on the mountain.
8 yon peyi avèk ble ak lòj, avèk pye rezen, pye fig, avèk grenad, yon peyi avèk lwil doliv ak siwo myèl;
A land of wheat and barley and vine and fig tree and pomegranate a land of olive tree of oil and honey.
9 yon peyi kote nou va manje manje san manke. Ladann l nou p ap manke anyen; yon peyi kote wòch se fè; epi kote nan ti mòn yo, nou kab fouye kwiv.
A land which not in scarcity you will eat in it food not you will lack anything in it a land which stones its [are] iron and from hills its you will dig copper.
10 “Lè nou fin manje e satisfè, nou va beni SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou bon peyi ke Li te bannou an.
And you will eat and you will be satisfied and you will bless Yahweh God your on the land good which he has given to you.
11 Veye pou nou pa bliye SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, epi pa kenbe kòmandman Li yo, lwa Li yo avèk règleman Li yo ke Mwen ap kòmande nou jodi a.
Take heed to yourself lest you should forget Yahweh God your to not to keep commandments his and judgments his and statutes his which I [am] commanding you this day.
12 Otreman, lè nou te manje e satisfè, e fin bati bon kay pou nou viv nan yo,
Lest you should eat and you will be satisfied and houses good you will build and you will dwell.
13 epi lè twoupo nou avèk bann mouton nou yo vin miltipliye, ajan avèk lò nou yo vin anpil, e tout sa nou posede vin miltipliye,
And herd your and flock your they will increase! and silver and gold it will increase of you and all that [belongs] to you it will increase.
14 alò, kè nou va vin plen ak ògèy, e nou va bliye SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ki te mennen nou sòti nan peyi Égypte la, andeyò kay esklavaj la.
And it will be lifted up heart your and you will forget Yahweh God your who brought out you from [the] land of Egypt from a house of slaves.
15 Li te mennen nou nan gran dezè tèrib sa a, avèk sèpan pwazon ak eskòpyon, ak tè swaf kote ki pa t gen dlo. Li te fè dlo sòti pou nou nan wòch silèks la.
Who led you in the wilderness - great and awesome snake - fiery and scorpion and thirsty ground where there not [was] water who brought forth for you water from [the] rock of flint.
16 Nan dezè a, Li te bannou lamàn ke zansèt nou yo pa t konnen, pou Li te kapab fè nou vin enb, e pou Li te kapab fè nou pase a leprèv, pouke alafen, sa te kab ale byen pou nou.
Who caused to eat you manna in the wilderness which not they had known! ancestors your so as to humble you and so as to put to [the] test you to do good to you in end your.
17 Otreman, nou ta di nan kè nou: “Se fòs nou avèk kouraj nou ki te bannou tout richès sa a.”
And you will say in heart your strength my and [the] might of hand my it has acquired for me the wealth this.
18 Men nou va sonje SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, paske se Li ki ap bannou pouvwa pou fè richès, pou Li kapab konfime akò ke Li te sèmante a zansèt nou yo, jan sa ye jodi a.
And you will remember Yahweh God your that he [is] the [one who] gives to you strength to acquire wealth so as to carry out covenant his which he swore to ancestors your as the day this.
19 Li va rive ke si nou bliye SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou swiv lòt dye yo pou adore yo, Mwen ap fè temwayaj kont nou jodi a menm, ke anverite nou va peri.
And it will be certainly [if] you will forget Yahweh God your and you will walk after gods other and you will serve them and you will bow down to them I testify against you this day that certainly you will perish!
20 Jan nasyon ke SENYÈ a ap fè peri devan nou yo, konsa nou va peri, akoz ke nou pa t koute vwa a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.”
Like the nations which Yahweh [is] about to destroy from before you so you will perish! consequence not you will listen! to [the] voice of Yahweh God your.
