Egzòd 16
1 Alò, yo te kite Élim, e tout asanble fis Israël yo te vini nan dezè Sin, ki te antre Élim ak Sinai an. Sa te fèt nan kenzyèm jou dezyèm mwa apre depa yo nan peyi Égypte la.
The people journeyed on from Elim, and all the community of Israelites came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departure from the land of Egypt.
2 Konsa, tout asanble fis Israël yo te plenyen kont Moïse avèk Aaron nan dezè a.
The whole community of Israelites complained against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness.
3 Fis Israël yo te di yo: “Pito ke nou te mouri pa men SENYÈ a nan peyi Égypte la pandan nou t ap chita akote chodyè vyann yo, pandan nou t ap manje pen jis nou vin plen. Men ou mennen nou deyò nan dezè sila a pou touye tout asanble a avèk grangou.”
The Israelites said to them, “If only we had died by Yahweh's hand in the land of Egypt when we were sitting by the pots of meat and were eating bread to the full. For you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill our whole community with hunger.”
4 Alò, SENYÈ a te di Moïse: “Gade byen, Mwen va vide pen sòti nan syèl la tankou lapli pou nou. Epi pèp la va sòti chak jou pou ranmase sa ki kont pou jounen an, pou Mwen kapab fè yo pase a leprèv; pou M wè si yo va mache nan enstriksyon Mwen yo.
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “I will rain down bread from heaven for you. The people will go out and gather a day's portion every day so that I may test them to see whether or not they will walk in my law.
5 Nan sizyèm jou a, lè yo prepare sa ke yo fè antre, li va doub sa ke yo konn pran pa jou yo.”
It will come about on the sixth day, that they will gather twice as much as what they gathered every day before, and they will cook what they bring in.”
6 Alò, Moïse avèk Aaron te di a tout fis Israël yo: “Nan aswè nou va rekonèt ke SENYÈ a te mennen nou sòti nan peyi Égypte la.
Then Moses and Aaron said to all the people of Israel, “In the evening you will know that it is Yahweh who has brought you out from the land of Egypt.
7 Nan maten a nou va wè glwa SENYÈ a, paske Li tande plent nou yo kont SENYÈ a. Epi kisa nou ye pou nou ta plenyen kont nou?”
In the morning you will see Yahweh's glory, for he hears your complaining against him. Who are we for you to complain against us?”
8 Moïse te di: “Sa va vin rive lè SENYÈ a bannou vyann pou nou manje nan aswè, ak pen jiskaske nou vin satisfè nan maten. Paske SENYÈ a tande plent ke nou fè kont Li. Epi kisa nou ye? Plent nou yo pa kont nou, men kont SENYÈ a.”
Moses also said, “You will know this when Yahweh gives you meat in the evening and bread in the morning to the full—for he has heard the complaints that you speak against him. Who are Aaron and I? Your complaints are not against us; they are against Yahweh.”
9 Alò Moïse te di a Aaron: “Pale a tout asanble fis Israël yo, ‘Rapwoche nou devan SENYÈ a, paske Li tande plent nou yo.’”
Moses said to Aaron, “Say to all the community of the people of Israel, 'Come near before Yahweh, for he has heard your complaints.'”
10 Li te vin rive ke pandan Aaron t ap pale a tout asanble a fis Israël yo, ke yo te gade vè dezè a, e vwala, glwa SENYÈ a te parèt nan nwaj la.
It came about, as Aaron spoke to the whole community of the people of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, Yahweh's glory appeared in the cloud.
11 Konsa, SENYÈ a te pale a Moïse e te di:
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
12 “Mwen tande plent a fis Israël yo. Pale ak yo pou di: ‘Nan aswè avan li fènwa, nou va manje vyann, e nan maten, nou va vin plen avèk pen. Konsa, nou va konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.’”
“I have heard the complaints of the people of Israel. Speak to them and say, 'In the evening you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be filled with bread. Then you will know that I am Yahweh your God.'”
13 Alò, li vin rive nan aswè ke zwazo kay yo te monte. Yo te kouvri tout kan an. Nan maten an te gen yon kouch lawouze ki te antoure kan an.
It came about in the evening that quails came up and covered the camp. In the morning the dew lay round about the camp.
14 Lè kouch lawouze a te disparèt, gade, sou sifas dezè a, te gen yon bagay ki te sanble yon ti kal byen fen, ki sanble frechè lawouze sou tè a.
When the dew was gone, there on the surface of the wilderness were thin flakes like frost on the ground.
15 Lè fis Israël yo te wè li, yo te di a youn lòt: “Kisa sa ye?” Paske yo pa t konnen kisa sa li te ye. Epi Moïse te di yo: “Sa se pen ke SENYÈ a bannou pou nou manje.
When the people of Israel saw it, they said one to another, “What is it?” They did not know what it was. Moses said to them, “It is the bread that Yahweh has given you to eat.
16 Men sa ke SENYÈ a kòmande: ‘Chak moun ranmase ladann selon sa ke li va manje. Nou va pran yon omè pou chak, selon kantite moun chak nan nou genyen nan tant li.’”
This is the command that Yahweh has given: 'You must gather, each one of you, the amount you need to eat, an omer for each person of the number of your people. This is how you will gather it: Gather enough to eat for every person who lives in your tent.'”
17 Fis Israël yo te fè sa, kèk te pran plis, e kèk te pran mwens.
The people of Israel did so. Some gathered more, some gathered less.
18 Lè yo te mezire li avèk yon omè, sa ki te pran anpil yo pa t gen twòp, ni sa ki te pran piti yo pa t manke. Chak moun te ranmase sa ke li te dwe manje.
When they measured it with an omer measure, those who had gathered much had nothing left over, and those who had gathered little had no lack. Each person gathered enough to meet their need.
19 Moïse te di yo: “Pa kite pèsòn konsève anyen ladann pou rive demen.”
Then Moses said to them, “No one must leave any of it until morning.”
20 Men yo pa t koute Moïse. Kèk nan yo te kite yon pati pou maten. Konsa, li te kale vè, e te vin rans. Moïse te fache avèk yo.
However, they did not listen to Moses. Some of them left some of it until morning, but it bred worms and became foul. Then Moses became angry with them.
21 Yo te ranmase li chak jou, chak moun selon sa li ta dwe manje. Men lè solèy la te vin cho, li te vin fann.
They gathered it morning by morning. Each person gathered enough to eat for that day. When the sun became hot, it melted.
22 Alò nan sizyèm jou a, yo te pran doub fòs pen, de omè pou chak moun. Tout dirijan asanble yo te fè rapò sa a Moïse.
It came about that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each person. All the leaders of the community came and told this to Moses.
23 Alo, konsa li te reponn yo: “Men sa ke SENYÈ a vle: ‘Demen se yon jou Saba, yon Saba sen a SENYÈ a. Kwit sa ke nou va kwit, bouyi sa ke nou va bouyi, e tout sa ki rete, mete l akote pou konsève jis rive nan maten.’”
He said to them, “This is what Yahweh has said: 'Tomorrow is a solemn rest, a holy Sabbath in Yahweh's honor. Bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil. All that remains over, set it aside for yourselves until morning.'”
24 Alò, yo te mete li akote jis rive nan maten, jan Moïse te kòmande a, e li pa t vin kanni, ni li pa t gen okenn vè ladann.
So they set it aside until morning, as Moses had instructed. It did not become foul, nor was there any worm in it.
25 Moïse te di: “Manje li jodi a, paske jodi a se yon Saba a SENYÈ a. Jodi a nou p ap twouve li nan chan an.
Moses said, “Eat that food today, for today is a day reserved as a Sabbath to honor Yahweh. Today you will not find it in the fields.
26 Sis jou nou va pran li, men nan setyèm jou a, jou Saba a, p ap genyen okenn.”
You will gather it during six days, but the seventh day is the Sabbath. On the Sabbath there will be no manna.”
27 Li te rive nan setyèm jou a, ke kèk nan moun yo te ale pran, men yo pa t twouve menm.
It came about on the seventh day that some of the people went out to gather manna, but they found none.
28 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Pou konbyen de tan nou va refize kenbe kòmandman Mwen yo, ak enstriksyon Mwen yo?
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws?
29 Gade, SENYÈ a te bannou Saba a. Pou sa, Li bannou pen pou de jou nan sizyèm jou a. Kite chak moun rete nan plas li. Pa kite pèsòn sòti nan plas li nan setyèm jou a.”
See, Yahweh has given you the Sabbath. So on the sixth day he is giving you bread for two days. Each of you must stay in his own place; no one must go out from his place on the seventh day.”
30 Pou sa, pèp Israël la te poze nan setyèm jou a.
So the people rested on the seventh day.
31 Lakay Israël te nonmen li lamàn. Li te tankou grenn koryandè, blan avèk yon gou tankou gato avèk siwo myèl.
The people of Israel called that food “manna.” It was white like coriander seed, and its taste was like wafers made with honey.
32 Alò, Moïse te di: “Men Sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande, ‘Kite yon omè ladann pami tout jenerasyon yo pou yo kapab wè pen ke Mwen te bannou nan dezè a, lè Mwen te mennen nou sòti nan peyi Égypte la.’”
Moses said, “This is what Yahweh has commanded: 'Let an omer of manna be kept throughout your people's generations so that your descendants might see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, after I brought you out from the land of Egypt.'”
33 Moïse te di a Aaron: “Pran yon bokal, mete yon omè plen lamàn ladann, epi plase li devan SENYÈ a pou kenbe li pandan tout jenerasyon nou yo.”
Moses said to Aaron, “Take a pot and put an omer of manna into it. Preserve it before Yahweh to be kept throughout the people's generations.”
34 Jan SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la, konsa Aaron te plase li devan temwen an, pou l konsève.
As Yahweh commanded Moses, Aaron stored it beside the covenant decrees in the ark.
35 Fis Israël yo te manje lamàn pandan karant ane, jis lè yo te rive nan yon peyi ki te peple deja. Yo te manje lamàn jis yo rive nan fwontyè peyi Canaan an.
The people of Israel ate manna forty years until they came to inhabited land. They ate it until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.
36 Alò, yon Omè se yon dizyèm pati a yon efa.
Now an omer is a tenth of an ephah.
