Egzòd 14
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Di fis Israël yo pou yo vire fè bak, e fè kan devan Pi-Hahiroth antre Migdol ak lanmè a. Nou va fè kan devan Baal-Tsephon, anfas li, bò kote lanmè a.
Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baal-zephon: before it shall ye encamp by the sea.
3 Paske Farawon va di de fis Israël yo: ‘Y ap mache byen egare nan peyi a; dezè a gen tan fèmen yo ladann.’
For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They [are] entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.
4 Konsa Mwen va andisi kè Farawon e li va kouri dèyè yo. Epi Mwen va onore pa Farawon avèk tout lame li a, e Ejipsyen yo va vin konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.” Se konsa yo te fè.
And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall follow them; and I will be honored upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; that the Egyptians may know that I [am] the LORD. And they did so.
5 Lè wa Égypte la te avèti ke pèp la te sove ale, Farawon avèk sèvitè li yo te vin gen yon chanjman kè anvè pèp la. Yo te di: “Kisa sa ye nou fin fè la a, ke nou kite Israël ale pou kite sèvis nou yo?”
And it was told to the king of Egypt that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?
6 Alò, li te prepare cha li, e te pran pèp li a avèk li.
And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:
7 Epi li te pran sis-san cha byen chwazi, ansanm ak tout lòt cha an Égypte yo avèk gwo chèf sou yo tout.
And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.
8 SENYÈ a te andisi kè Farawon, wa Égypte la, e li te kouri dèyè fis Israël yo. Paske se ak gwo kouraj ke Israël te soti.
And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel: and the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
9 Konsa, Ejipsyen yo te kouri dèyè yo avèk tout cheval yo ak cha Farawon yo, chevalye li yo, avèk lame li, e yo te vin parèt sou yo kanpe bò kote lanmè a, akote Pi-Hihroth, anfas Baal-Tsephon.
But the Egyptians pursued them (all the horses [and] chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army) and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.
10 Pandan Farawon t ap pwoche, fis Israël yo te gade, e vwala, Ejipsyen yo t ap mache dèyè yo. Yo te vin pè anpil, epi fis Israël yo te kriye fò bay SENYÈ a.
And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were greatly afraid; and the children of Israel cried to the LORD.
11 Alò yo te di a Moïse: “Èske se paske pa gen tonm an Égypte ke ou mennen nou pati pou mouri nan dezè a? Poukisa ou te aji avèk nou konsa, pou fè nou sòti an Égypte?
And they said to Moses, Because [there were] no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why hast thou dealt thus with us, to conduct us out of Egypt?
12 Èske se pa pawòl ke nou te pale ou an Égypte la lè nou te di: ‘Pa deranje nou pou nou ka sèvi Ejipsyen yo?’ Paske li t ap pi bon pou nou pou sèvi Ejipsyen yo pase pou nou ta mouri nan dezè a.”
[Is] not this the word that we told thee in Egypt, Saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For [it had been] better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.
13 Men Moïse te di a pèp la: “Pa pè anyen! Kanpe la pou wè delivrans SENYÈ a va acheve pou nou jodi a. Paske Ejipsyen yo ke nou wè jodi a, nou p ap wè yo ankò jiska jamè.
And Moses said to the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will show to you to-day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to-day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
14 SENYÈ a va goumen pou nou pandan nou rete an silans.”
The LORD will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
15 Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Poukisa w ap kriye ban Mwen konsa? Di pèp la avanse.
And the LORD said to Moses, Why criest thou to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward:
16 Epi pou ou menm, leve baton ou an anlè. Lonje men ou sou lanmè a pou fann li. Konsa, fis Israël yo va pase nan mitan lanmè a sou tè sèch.
But lift thou thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go on dry [ground] through the midst of the sea.
17 Pou Mwen, gade byen, Mwen va fè kè Ejipsyen yo di pou yo kouri antre dèyè yo. Konsa, Mwen va jwenn onè sou Farawon an avèk tout lame li ak cha li yo avèk kavalye li yo.
And I, behold I, will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots and upon his horsemen.
18 Alò, Ejipsyen yo va vin konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, lè Mwen vin onore pa Farawon, pa cha li yo, ak kavalye li yo.”
And the Egyptians shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have gotten me honor upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
19 Zanj Bondye a ki t ap prale devan kan Israël la te vin deplase e te kanpe dèyè yo; epi pilye nwaj la te deplase kite devan yo, pou te kanpe dèyè yo.
And the angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removed, and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:
20 Alò li te vin divize kan Égypte la ak kan Israël la. Te gen nwaj la ansanm avèk tenèb la, men li te bay limyè nan nwit lan. Konsa youn pa t pwoche lòt pandan tout nwit lan.
And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness [to them], but it gave light by night [to these]: so that the one came not near the other all the night.
21 Alò Moïse te lonje men l sou lanmè a; epi SENYÈ a te bale lanmè a pa yon van lès byen fò tout lannwit. Li te fè lanmè a vin tounen tè sèch, e dlo a te vin fann.
And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the LORD caused the sea to go [back] by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry [land], and the waters were divided.
22 Fis Israël yo te pase nan mitan lanmè a sou tè sèch, e dlo a te vin tankou yon miray pou yo sou men dwat yo ak sou men goch yo.
And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry [ground]: and the waters [were] a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.
23 Alò, Ejipsyen yo te vin kouri dèyè yo, e tout cheval Farawon, avèk cha li yo, avèk kavalye li yo te antre kouri dèyè yo nan mitan lanmè a.
And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, [even] all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
24 A la vèy nan maten, SENYÈ a te gade anba sou lame Ejipsyen yo, sou pilye a dife avèk nwaj yo, e Li te mennen lame Ejipsyen an nan yon gwo konfizyon.
And it came to pass, that, in the morning-watch, the LORD looked to the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire, and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,
25 Li te retire wou cha yo, e yo te mal a kondwi. Konsa, Ejipsyen yo te di: “Annou sove ale kite Israël, paske SENYÈ a ap goumen pou yo kont Ejipsyen yo.”
And took off their chariot-wheels, and made them to move heavily, so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fighteth for them against the Egyptians.
26 Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Lonje men ou sou lanmè a pou dlo a kab retounen vin sou Ejipsyen yo, sou cha yo, ak sou kavalye yo.”
And the LORD said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.
27 Alò, Moise te lonje men li sou lanmè a, e lanmè a te retounen nan eta nòmal li nan granmmaten, pandan Ejipsyen yo t ap sove ale tou kontra li. Konsa, SENYÈ a te boulvèse Ejipsyen yo nan mitan lanmè a.
And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
28 Dlo a te retounen e te kouvri cha yo avèk kavalye yo, e menm tout lame Farawon ki te antre nan lanmè a dèyè yo. Pa t menm gen youn nan yo ki te rete.
And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, [and] all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.
29 Men fis Israël yo te mache sou tè sèch pase nan mitan lanmè a, e dlo a te vin tankou yon mi pou yo ni sou men dwat yo ni sou men goch yo.
But the children of Israel walked upon dry [land] in the midst of the sea; and the waters [were] a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.
30 Konsa, SENYÈ a te delivre Israël nan jou sa a nan men a Ejipsyen yo, e Israël te wè Ejipsyen yo ki te mouri sou bò lanmè a.
Thus the LORD saved Israel that day from the hand of the Egyptians: and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea-shore.
31 Lè Israël te wè gran pwisans ke SENYÈ a te sèvi kont Ejipsyen yo, tout Pèp la te krent SENYÈ a, e yo te kwè nan SENYÈ a ak sèvitè li a, Moïse.
And Israel saw that great work which the LORD did upon the Egyptians: and the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD, and his servant Moses.
