Egzòd 23
1 Ou pa pou pote yon fo rapò. Pa jwenn men ou avèk yon moun mechan pou devni yon move temwen.
Not you must bear a report of falsehood may not you put hand your with a wicked [person] to be a witness of injustice.
2 Ou pa pou swiv foul la nan fè mechanste, ni ou pa pou fè temwen nan yon pwosè k ap vire pou swiv foul la pou ou kapab fè lajistis vin konwonpi.
Not you must be after many [people] to wicked deeds and not you must testify on a case at law by turning aside after many [people] to thrust aside.
3 Ni ou p ap apiye vè yon malere pou bay li avantaj nan pwosè a.
And a poor [person] not you must show partiality in case at law his.
4 Si ou rankontre bèf, oswa bourik a lènmi ou k ap pati, anverite, ou va remèt li bay mèt li.
If you will meet [the] ox of enemy your or donkey his wandering off certainly you will return it to him.
5 Si ou wè bourik a yon moun ki rayi ou, k ap kouche anba gwo chaj, ou p ap abandone li nan pwoblèm nan, men ou va ede l dechaje li.
If you will see [the] donkey of [one who] hates you lying down under load its and you will refrain from leaving it certainly you will let [it] loose with him.
6 Ou pa pou konwonpi lajistis ki se dwa a yon malere nan pwosè li.
Not you must turn aside [the] justice of needy [person] your in case at law his.
7 Rete lwen yon fo pwosè, e pa touye inosan an oswa moun ki dwat la, paske Mwen p ap jistifye koupab la.
From a word of falsehood you will be distant and an innocent [person] and a righteous [person] may not you kill for not I will declare righteous a wicked [person].
8 Ou pa pou pran lajan anba tab, paske kòb anba tab ap avegle sila ki wè klè yo, e konwonpi kòz sila ki jis yo.
And a bribe not you must take for bribe it makes blind clear-sighted [people] so it may pervert [the] words of righteous [people].
9 Ou pa pou oprime yon etranje, paske nou konnen pozisyon a yon etranje, konsi, nou osi te etrange nan peyi Égypte la.
And a sojourner not you must oppress and you you have known [the] life of the sojourner for sojourners you were in [the] land of Egypt.
10 Ou va simen tè ou pou sis ane, e rekòlte donn li,
And six years you will sow land your and you will gather produce its.
11 men nan setyèm ane a ou va kite li san fè anyen pou l kab pran repo. Konsa, malere pami pèp nou an kapab manje, epi nenpòt sa yo menm ta kite, ap rete pou bèt chan yo. Ou ap fè menm bagay la avèk chan rezen e avèk chan oliv ou yo.
And the seventh [year] you will let rest it and you will leave fallow it and they will eat [the] needy [people] of people your and excess their it will eat [the] animal[s] of the field thus you will do to vineyard your to olive grove your.
12 Pandan sis jou ou va fè travay ou, men nan setyèm jou a, ou va sispann fè travay pou bèf ou avèk bourik ou kapab repoze, ansanm avèk fis esklav femèl ou a, ak etranje ou a tou, kapab repoze.
Six days you will do work your and on the day seventh you will rest so that it may rest ox your and donkey your so he may refresh himself [the] child of female slave your and the sojourner.
13 Alò, konsènan tout sa ke M te pale avèk nou yo, pran atansyon pou fè yo. Konsa, pa nonmen non a lòt dye yo, ni kite yo tande pawòl sa yo sòti nan bouch nou.
And to all that I have said to you you will take heed and [the] name of gods other not you will bring to remembrance not it will be heard on mouth your.
14 Twa fwa pa ane nou va selebre yon fèt pou Mwen.
Three feet you will celebrate a festival to me in the year.
15 Nou va obsève fèt Pen San Ledven an. Pandan sèt jou nou va manje pen san ledven an, jan Mwen te kòmande nou an, nan tan ki apwente nan mwa Abib la, paske nan li nou te sòti an Égypte. Epi okenn moun pèsòn p ap parèt devan M men vid.
[the] festival of The unleavened bread you will keep seven days you will eat unleavened bread just as I commanded you to [the] appointed time of [the] month of Abib for in it you came out from Egypt and not they will present themselves face my empty.
16 Osi nou va obsève fèt Mwason Premye Fwi a travay nou yo, nan sa ke nou te simen nan chan, anplis, fèt rekòlt nan fen ane a lè nou fin ranmase tout fwi travay nan jaden nou yo.
And [the] festival of the harvest [the] first-fruits of work your which you will sow in the field and [the] festival of the ingathering when goes out the year when gathering you work your from the field.
17 Twa fwa pa lane tout mal nou yo va parèt devan SENYÈ Bondye a.
Three times in the year he will present himself every male your to [the] presence of the lord - Yahweh.
18 Nou pa pou ofri san a sakrifis Mwen ansanm avèk pen ledven. Ni grès fèt Mwen an pa pou pase lannwit pou rive nan maten.
Not you must sacrifice with leaven [the] blood of sacrifice my and not it will remain overnight [the] fat of festival sacrifice my until morning.
19 Nou va pote pi bon nan premye fwi latè yo antre nan kay SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Nou pa pou bouyi yon jèn kabrit nan lèt manman li.
[the] beginning of [the] first-fruits of Ground your you will bring [the] house of Yahweh God your not you must boil a kid in [the] milk of mother its.
20 “Gade byen, Mwen ap voye yon zanj devan nou pou pwoteje nou pandan nou nan chemen an, e pou mennen nou antre nan plas ke M te prepare pou nou an.
Here! I [am] about to send an angel before you to guard you on the journey and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.
21 Rete vijilan devan li, e obeyi vwa li. Pa fè rebelyon anvè li, paske li p ap padone peche nou yo, paske non Mwen nan li.
Take care from before him and listen to voice his may not you cause bitterness in him for not he will forgive to transgression your for name my [is] within him.
22 “Men si nou vrèman obeyi vwa li, e fè tout sa ke M pale nou yo, alò, Mwen va vin lènmi ak lènmi pa nou yo, e advèsè pou advèsè nou yo.
That except carefully you will listen to voice his and you will do all that I will say and I will be an enemy to enemies your and I will be a foe to opposers your.
23 Paske zanj Mwen va ale devan nou pou mennen nou nan peyi Amoreyen yo, Etyen yo, Ferezyen yo, Kananeyen yo, Evityen yo, ak Jebisyen yo. Epi Mwen va detwi yo nèt.
For he will go angel my before you and he will bring you to the Amorite[s] and the Hittite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Canaanite[s] the Hivite[s] and the Jebusite[s] and I will annihilate it.
24 “Nou pa pou adore dye pa yo, ni sèvi yo, ni fè selon zèv pa yo, men nou va boulvèse yo nèt e nou va kraze pilye sakre pa yo an mòso.
Not you must bow down to gods their and not you must be enticed to serve them and not you must make like works their for completely you will tear down them and totally you will shatter into pieces sacred pillars their.
25 Men nou va sèvi SENYÈ a Bondye nou an, e Li va beni pen nou, ak dlo nou; epi Mwen va retire maladi pami nou.
And you will serve Yahweh God your and he will bless food your and water your and I will remove sickness from midst your.
26 P ap gen foskouch oswa moun esteril nan peyi nou. Mwen va fin ranpli fòs kantite jou ke n ap viv yo.
Not anyone will be miscarrying and barren in land your [the] number of days your I will complete.
27 “Mwen va voye laperèz Mwen devan nou. Mwen va jete nan konfizyon tout pèp pami sila nou parèt yo, e Mwen va fè tout lènmi nou yo ban nou do.
Terror my I will send before you and I will confuse every people which you will go among them and I will give all enemies your to you neck.
28 Mwen va voye gèp devan nou pou yo pouse mete deyò tout Evityen yo, Kananeyen yo, ak Etyen yo devan nou.
And I will send the hornet before you and it will drive out the Hivite[s] the Canaanite[s] and the Hittite[s] from to before you.
29 Mwen p ap pouse yo deyò nan yon sèl ane, pou peyi a pa vin dezole, e pou bèt chan yo pa vin twòp pou nou.
Not I will drive out it from before you in a year one lest it should become the land a waste and it will become many on you [the] animal[s] of the field.
30 Mwen va pouse yo deyò devan nou mòso pa mòso jiskaske nou vin gran, e posede peyi a.
Little little I will drive out it from before you until that you will be fruitful and you will possess the land.
31 “Mwen va etabli bòn nou yo soti nan Lamè Wouj, jis rive nan lanmè Filisten yo, soti savann nan pou rive nan larivyè Lefrat paske Mwen va livre abitan peyi yo nan men nou, e nou va pouse yo ale devan nou.
And I will fix border your from [the] sea of reed[s] and to [the] sea of [the] Philistines and from [the] wilderness to the River for - I will give in hand your [the] inhabitants of the land and you will drive out them from before you.
32 “Nou pa pou fè okenn akò avèk yo, ni avèk dye pa yo.
Not you must make to them and to gods their a covenant.
33 Yo p ap viv nan peyi nou, paske yo va fè nou peche kont Mwen; paske si nou sèvi dye pa yo, sa va vrèman vin yon pèlen pou nou.”
Not they will dwell in land your lest they should cause to sin you to me for you will serve gods their for it will become for you a snare.
