Deteronòm 9
1 “Koute O Israël! Nou travèse lòtbò Jourdain an jodi a pou antre nan peyi a, e pou deplase nasyon ki pi gran e pi pwisan ke nou yo; gran vil yo byen fòtifye jis rive nan syèl yo.
Here thou, Israel; thou schalt passe Jordan to dai, that thou welde mooste naciouns, and strengere than thou; grete citees, and wallid `til to heuene;
2 Yon pèp ki gran e wo, fis a Anak yo jeyan yo, ke nou konnen e te tande yo di: ‘Kilès ki kab kanpe devan fis Anak yo?’
a greet puple, and hiy; the sones of Enachym, whiche thi silf `siest, and herdist, whiche no man may ayenstonde in the contrarie part.
3 Pou sa, konnen ke jodi a, se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ki ap travèse devan nou tankou yon dife devoran. Li va detwi yo e Li va donte yo devan nou pou nou kapab chase yo sòti e detwi yo byen vit, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te pale nou an.
Therfor thou schalt wite to dai, that thi Lord God hym silf schal passe bifor thee; he is a fier deuourynge and wastynge, that schal al to breke hem, and schal do awei, and destrie bifor thi face swiftli, as he spak to thee.
4 “Pa di nan kè nou, lè SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, fin chase yo deyò devan nou, ‘Se akoz ladwati mwen, SENYÈ a te mennen mwen antre pou posede peyi sa a.’ Paske se akoz mechanste a nasyon sila yo ke SENYÈ a ap fè yo deplase devan nou.
Seie thou not in thin herte, whanne thi Lord God hath do hem awey in thi siyt, For my riytfulnesse the Lord brouyte me yn, that Y schulde welde this lond; sithen these naciouns ben doon awey for her wickidnessis.
5 Se pa akoz ladwati nou, ni kè dwat nou, ki fè nou ap vin posede peyi a, men akoz mechanste a nasyon sila yo ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ap chase yo devan nou, e pou konfime pawòl la ke SENYÈ a te fè avèk zansèt nou yo, Abraham, Isaac, ak Jacob.
For not for thi riytfulnessis, and equyte of thin herte thou schalt entre that thou welde the lond `of hem; but for thei diden wickidli, thei weren doon awey, whanne thou entridist, and that the Lord schulde fille his word which he bihiyte vndur an ooth to thi fadris, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
6 “Pou sa, byen konnen ke se pa akoz ladwati nou ke SENYÈ a ap bannou bon peyi sa a pou posede, paske nou se yon pèp tèt di.
Therfor wite thou that not for thi riytfulnesses thi Lord God yaf to thee this beste lond in to possessioun, sithen thou art a puple of hardeste nol.
7 “Sonje, pa bliye jan nou te pwovoke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, a lakòlè nan dezè a. Depi jou ke nou te kite peyi Égypte la jiskaske lè nou te rive nan kote sa a, nou tap fè rebèl kont SENYÈ a.
Haue thou mynde, and foryete not, hou in the wildirnesse thou terridist thi Lord God to greet wraththe; fro that dai in which thou yedist out of Egipt `til to this place, thou striuedist euere ayens the Lord.
8 Menm nan Horeb, nou te pwovoke SENYÈ a lakòlè. SENYÈ a te tèlman fache avèk nou ke Li te prèt pou detwi nou.
For whi also in Oreb thou terridist hym, and he was wrooth, and wolde do thee awei, whanne Y stiede in to the hil,
9 “Lè mwen te monte nan mòn nan pou resevwa tablo wòch yo, tablo akò ke SENYÈ a te fè avèk nou an, alò, mwen te rete sou mòn nan pandan karant jou ak karant nwit. Mwen pa t manje pen ni bwè dlo.
that Y schulde take two tablis of stoon, the tablis of couenaunt which the Lord made with you, and Y continuede in the hil fourti daies and nyytis, and Y eet not breed, and Y drank not watir.
10 SENYÈ a te ban mwen de tab wòch ki te ekri ak dwèt Bondye. Sou yo te tout pawòl ke SENYÈ a te pale avèk nou nan mòn nan, nan mitan dife a nan jou asanble a.
And the Lord yaf to me, twey tablis of stoon, euer either wrytun with Goddis fyngur, and conteynynge alle the wordis whiche he spak to you in the hil, fro the myddis of the fier, whanne the cumpany of puple was gaderid togidere.
11 “Li te vin rive nan fen karant jou ak karant nwit yo, ke SENYÈ a te ban mwen de tablo wòch, tab akò yo.
And whanne fourti daies and so many nyytis hadden passid, the Lord yaf to me twei tablis of stoon, tablis of boond of pees;
12 Alò, SENYÈ a te di mwen: ‘Leve, desann soti isit la byen vit, paske pèp ou a ke nou te fè sòti an Égypte la te vin konwonpi. Yo te vire akote chemen ke Mwen te kòmande a. Yo te fè yon imaj fonn pou kont yo!’
and he seide to me, Rise thou, and go doun for hennys soone, for thi puple, which thou leddist out of Egipt, han forsake swiftli the weie which thou schewidist to hem, and thei han maad to hem a yotun calf.
13 “SENYÈ a te pale plis avè m e te di: ‘Mwen te wè pèp sa a, vrèman, li se yon pèp ki di.
And eft the Lord seide to me, `Y se that this puple is of hard nol;
14 Kite Mwen sèl pou M kapab detwi yo, e efase non yo soti anba syèl la; Mwen va fè a ou menm yon nasyon pi pwisan e pi gran ke yo.’
suffre thou me, that I alto breke hym, and do awey the name `of hym fro vndur heuene; and Y schal ordeyne thee on a folk which is grettere and strongere than this folk.
15 “Epi mwen te vire desann mòn nan pandan mòn nan t ap brile avèk dife a, ak de tab akò yo nan de men m yo.
And whanne Y cam doun fro the hil brennynge, and helde with euer either hond twei tablis of boond of pees, and Y seiy,
16 Epi konsa, mwen te wè ke vrèman, nou te peche kont SENYÈ a Bondye nou an. Nou te fè pou nou menm yon ti bèf fonn. Nou te vire detounen byen vit kite chemen ke SENYÈ a te kòmande nou an.
that ye hadde synned to youre Lord God, and hadden maad to you a yotun calf, and hadden forsake swiftli the weie of God which he schewide to you,
17 Mwen te pran de tab sa yo; mwen te jete yo sòti nan men m, e te kraze yo devan zye nou.
Y castide doun the tablis fro myn hondis, and brak tho tablis in youre siyt.
18 “Mwen te tonbe ba devan SENYÈ a, yon fwa ankò. Pandan karant jou ak karant nwit mwen pa t manje pen ni bwè dlo akoz tout peche ke nou te fè nan fè sa ki mal nan zye SENYÈ a, pou pwovoke Li a lakòlè.
And Y felde doun bifor the Lord as `biforto, in fourti daies and fourti nyytis, and Y eet not breed, `and drank not watir, for alle youre synnes whiche ye diden ayens the Lord, and terriden hym to `greet wraththe;
19 Paske Mwen te pè lakòlè ak chalè mekontantman avèk sila SENYÈ a te fache kont nou pou L te kapab detwi nou an. Men SENYÈ a te koute mwen fwa sa a tou.
for Y dredde the indignacioun and yre of hym, by which he was stirid ayens you, and wolde do you awey. And the Lord herde me also in this tyme.
20 “SENYÈ a te ase fache avèk Aaron pou detwi li. Konsa, mwen te priye anplis pou Aaron nan menm lè sa a.
Also the Lord was wrooth greteli ayens Aaron, and wolde alto breke hym, and Y preiede in lijk maner for hym.
21 “Mwen te pran peche nou an, ti bèf ke nou te fè a, e mwen te brile li avèk dife. Mwen te kraze li fen jiskaske li te vin tankou poud, epi mwen te jete poud li nan ti flèv dlo ki te pase desann nan mòn nan.
`Forsothe Y took youre synne which ye maden, that is, the calf, and brente it in fier, and Y alto brak in gobetis, and droof outerli in to dust, and castide forth in to the stronde, that cam doun fro the hil.
22 “Ankò, nan Tabeéra, nan Massa, ak nan Kibroth-Hattaava, nou te pwovoke SENYÈ a lakòlè.
Also in the brennyng, and in the temptacioun at the watris of ayenseiyng, and in the Sepulcris of Coueytise, ye terriden the Lord;
23 Lè SENYÈ a te voye nou soti Kadés-Barnéa, Li te di: ‘Ale monte pou posede tè ke mwen te bannou an.’ Men nou te fè rebèl kont kòmand SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Nou pa t kwè Li, ni koute vwa Li.
and whanne Y sente you fro Cades Barne, and seide, `Stye ye, and welde the lond which Y yaf to you, and ye dispisiden the comaundement of youre Lord God, and ye bileueden not to him, nether ye wolden here his vois;
24 Nou te fè rebèl kont SENYÈ a depi jou ke m te konnen nou an.
but euere ye weren rebel, fro the day in which Y bigan to knowe you.
25 “Konsa, mwen te vin tonbe devan SENYÈ a pandan karant jou ak karant nwit, ke m te tonbe a, akoz SENYÈ a te di Li t ap detwi nou.
And Y lay byfore the Lord fourti daies and fourti nyytis, in whiche Y bisouyte hym mekeli, that he schulde not `do awey you, as he manaasside.
26 Mwen te priye a SENYÈ a e mwen te di: ‘O SENYÈ a, pa detwi pèp Ou a, eritaj Ou menm nan, ke Ou te peye ranson selon grandè Ou, pou Ou te mennen sòti an Égypte avèk yon men pwisan.
And Y preiede, and seide, Lord God, distrye not thi puple, and thin eritage, which thou `ayen bouytist in thi greetnesse, which thou leddist out of Egipt in strong hond.
27 “Sonje sèvitè Ou yo, Abraham, Isaac, ak Jacob. Pa gade rebelyon a pèp sila a, ni sou mechanste yo oswa peche yo.
Haue thou mynde of thi seruauntis, of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; biholde thou not the hardnesse of this puple, and the wickidnesse, and the synne therof,
28 Otreman, peyi kote Ou te mennen nou sòti a, kapab di: ‘Akoz SENYÈ a pa t kapab mennen yo antre nan peyi ke Li te pwomèt yo a, e akoz Li te rayi yo, Li te mennen yo deyò pou touye yo nan dezè a.’
lest perauenture the dwelleris of the lond, out of which thou leddist vs, seien, The Lord myyte not bryng hem in to the lond which he bihiyte to hem, and he hatide hem; therfor he ledde hem out that he schulde sle hem in wildirnesse;
29 Men se pèp Ou yo ye, eritaj Ou menm, ke Ou te mennen sòti pa gran pouvwa avèk bra lonje.”
and thei ben thi puple and thin eritage, which thou leddist out in thi greet strengthe, and in thin arm holdun forth.
