< Egzòd 34 >
1 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Taye pou kont ou de tablèt an wòch tankou sa nou te genyen yo. Mwen va ekri sou tablèt yo pawòl ki te sou lòt ke ou te kraze yo.
The Lord told Moses, “Cut out two stone tablets like the first ones, and I will write on them again the same words that were on the first tablets—the ones you broke.
2 Alò, prepare ou pou maten an pou monte nan Mòn Sinaï, e prezante ou menm la devan Mwen, sou tèt mòn nan.
Get ready in the morning, and then come up Mount Sinai. Stand before me there on the mountain top.
3 Nanpwen pèsòn ki pou monte avèk ou, ni pa kite pèsòn vizib nan okenn andwa sou mòn nan. Menm bann mouton yo ak twoupo yo p ap pou manje devan mòn sa a.”
Nobody else can come up with you—I don't want to see anyone anywhere on the mountain, and no flocks or herds should graze at the foot of the mountain.”
4 Konsa, Moïse te koupe de tablèt an wòch tankou sa ki te fèt avan yo. Li te leve granmmaten pou monte sou Mòn Sinaï a, jan SENYÈ a te kòmande li a. Li te pran de tablo an wòch yo nan men l.
So Moses cut out two stone tablets like the previous ones and went up Mount Sinai early in the morning as the Lord had ordered him, taking with him the two stone tablets.
5 SENYÈ a te desann nan nyaj la, e Li te kanpe la avèk li pandan li t ap rele non SENYÈ a.
The Lord descended in a cloud, stood there with him, and called out the name “Yahweh.”
6 Konsa, SENYÈ a te pase devan li, e Moïse te pwoklame: “SENYÈ a! SENYÈ a, Bondye, ki plen mizerikòd ak konpasyon an, ki lan nan fè kolè, e ki ranpli avèk lanmou ki dous ak verite a;
The Lord passed in front of him, calling out, “Yahweh! Yahweh! I am the God of grace and mercy! I am slow to become angry, full of trustworthy love and always faithful.
7 ki kenbe lanmou dous pandan dè milye de jenerasyon, ki padone inikite, transgresyon ak peche; malgre sa li p ap kite koupab yo san pinisyon. L ap vizite inikite papa yo sou pitit yo, ak sou pitit a pitit yo jis rive nan twazyèm ak katriyèm jenerasyon.”
I go on showing my trustworthy love to thousands, forgiving guilt, rebellion, and sin. But I will not leave the guilty unpunished—the impact of sin will affect not only the parents, but also their children and grandchildren, up until the third and fourth generation.”
8 Moïse te fè vit bese ba jis atè pou adore.
Moses quickly bowed down to the ground, and worshiped.
9 Li te di: “Si koulye a mwen twouve favè nan zye Ou, O Senyè a, mwen priye, kite Senyè a ale ansanm nan mitan nou, malgre pèp la se tèt di. Padone inikite nou, peche nou, e pran nou kòm pwòp posesyon pa Ou.”
He said, “Lord, if it's true that you're happy with me, please accompany us. Admittedly this is a rebellious people, but please forgive our guilt and sin. Accept us as specially belonging to you.”
10 Alò, Bondye te di: “Gade byen, Mwen va fè yon akò. Devan tout pèp ou a Mwen va fè mirak ki pa t janm fèt nan tout tè a ni pami okenn nan nasyon yo. Epi tout pèp pami sila nou ap viv yo, va wè zèv a SENYÈ a, paske se yon bagay etonan ke Mwen va fè ak ou a.
The Lord said, “Look, I'm making an agreement with you. Right in front of all of you I will do miracles that have never been done before—not among anyone anywhere on earth. Everyone here and those around will see the Lord at work, for what I'm going to do for you will be incredible.
11 “Fè sèten ke ou obsève sa ke Mwen kòmande ou nan jou sa a. Gade byen, Mwen va chase devan ou Amoreyen yo, Kananeyen yo, Etyen yo, Ferezyen yo, Evetyen yo, ak Jebisyen yo.
But you must carefully follow what I tell you to do today. Pay attention! I'm going to drive out ahead of you the Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
12 Veye nou, pou nou pa fè okenn akò avèk sa yo k ap viv nan peyi kote nou prale a, oswa sa va devni yo pèlen nan mitan nou.
Make sure you don't agree to a peace treaty with the people living in the land where you are going. Otherwise they will become a trap for you.
13 “Men, olye de sa nou va dechire lotèl pa yo, kraze pilye sakre pa yo e koupe jete Asherim yo.
For you must tear down their altars, knock down their idolatrous pillars, and cut down their Asherah poles,
14 Paske nou pa pou adore okenn lòt dye, paske SENYÈ a, ak yon non ke yo rele Jalou, se yon Dye ki jalou.
because you must not worship any other gods than the Lord. His name stands for being exclusive, because he is a God who demands an exclusive relationship.
15 “Pa fè yon akò avèk abitan yo nan peyi a, sòf ke yo ta jwe yon wòl kòm pwostitiye avèk dye pa yo, fè sakrifis a dye pa yo, e yon moun ta kab envite nou pou nou manje nan sakrifis li.
Make sure you don't agree to a peace treaty with the people living in the land, for when they prostitute themselves by worshiping and sacrificing to their gods, they will invite you to join them, and you will eat from their pagan sacrifices.
16 Epi pou nou ta vin pran nan fi pa yo pou fis nou yo, e fi pa yo ta kab fè pwostitiye avèk dye pa yo, e vin lakoz ke fis nou yo osi fè pwostitiye avèk dye pa yo.
When you have their daughters marry your sons and those daughters prostitute themselves to their gods, they will make your sons worship their gods in the same way.
17 “Nou p ap fè pou tèt nou okenn dye ki fonn.
Don't make any idols for yourselves.
18 “Nou va obsève fèt Pen San Ledven an. Pandan sèt jou nou va manje pen san ledven, jan Mwen te kòmande nou an, nan lè dezinye a, nan mwa Abib la, paske nan mwa Abib la nou te sòti an Égypte.
Observe the Festival of Unleavened Bread. For seven days you are to eat bread made without yeast, as I ordered you to do. You are to do this at the specified time in the month of Abib, because that was the month when you left Egypt.
19 “Premye pòtre ki sòti nan tout vant se pou Mwen, e nan tout bèt mal ou yo, menm premye pòtre nan bèf yo ak mouton yo.
Every firstborn is mine. That includes all the firstborn males of your livestock from your cattle herds, and flocks.
20 Ou va ransone avèk yon jenn mouton premye pòtre a yon bourik; epi si ou pa ransone li, alò, ou va kase kou li. Ou va ransone tout premye ne nan fis nou yo. Pèsòn pa pou parèt devan M men vid.
You can redeem the firstborn of a donkey with a lamb, but if you don't, you must break its neck. All your firstborn sons must be redeemed. No one is to come before me without an offering.
21 Ou va travay pandan sis jou, men nan setyèm jou a ou va repoze. Menm pandan sezon laboure tè ak rekòlt la ou va repoze.
You shall work for six days, but you shall rest on the seventh day. Even during the times of sowing and harvest you shall rest.
22 “Ou va selebre fèt Semèn yo. Sa vle di premye fwi ki sòti nan rekòlt ble a, ak fèt Rekòlt la, nan fen ane a.
Observe the Festival of Weeks when you offer the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the Harvest Festival at the end of the agricultural year.
23 Twa fwa pa ane tout mal nou yo va parèt devan Senyè BONDYE a, Bondye Israël la.
Three times every year all your males must appear before the Lord Yahweh, the God of Israel.
24 Paske Mwen va chase nasyon yo devan ou, e fè agrandi limit fwontyè ou yo. Pèsòn p ap fè lanvi sou peyi ou lè w ap monte twa fwa pa ane pou parèt devan SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a.
I will drive out the nations ahead of you and expand your borders, and no one will come and take your land when you go three times a year to appear before the Lord your God.
25 “Ou p ap ofri san sakrifis Mwen yo avèk pen leve, ni kite sakrifis ki pou fèt Pak la rete jis rive nan maten.
Don't offer bread made with yeast when you present a sacrifice to me, don't keep any sacrifice from the Passover Feast until the morning.
26 “Ou va pote premye nan premye fwi tè ou yo pou l antre lakay SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a. Ou pa pou bouyi yon jèn kabrit nan lèt manman li.”
When you harvest your crops, bring the firstfruits to the house of the Lord your God. Don't cook a young goat in milk from its mother.”
27 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Ekri mo sa yo. Paske an akò avèk mo sa yo, Mwen te fè yon akò avèk ou, e avèk Israël.”
Then the Lord told Moses, “Write down these words, because these are the basis for the agreement I have made with you and with Israel.”
28 Li te la avèk SENYÈ a pandan karant jou ak karant nwit. Li pa t manje pen, ni bwè dlo. Konsa, li te ekri sou tablo yo avèk pawòl akò yo, dis kòmandman yo.
Moses spent forty days and forty nights there with the Lord without eating bread or drinking water. He wrote down on the tablets the words of the agreement, the Ten Commandments.
29 Lè Moïse t ap desann Mòn Sinaï a, avèk de tablo temwayaj yo nan men Moïse lè li t ap desann mòn nan, Moïse pa t konnen ke po figi li te briye akoz li t ap pale avèk Senyè a.
When Moses came down from Mount Sinai carrying the two tablets of the Law, he didn't realize that his face was shining brightly because he had been speaking with the Lord.
30 Pou sa, lè Aaron avèk tout fis Israël yo te wè Moïse, byen gade, po figi li t ap briye, e yo te pè pwoche li.
When Aaron and the Israelites saw Moses with his face shining so brightly they were frightened to approach him.
31 Epi Moïse te rele yo avèk Aaron. Tout dirijan kongregasyon yo te retounen kote li. Konsa, Moïse te pale avèk yo.
But Moses called out to them, so Aaron and all the community leaders went over to him, and he talked with them.
32 Apre sa a, tout fis Israël yo te pwoche, e li te bay yo tout komandman yo ke SENYÈ a te pale ak li nan Mòn Sinaï a.
Afterwards all the Israelites came over and he gave them all the Lord's instructions he'd received on Mount Sinai.
33 Lè Moïse te fin pale avèk yo, li te mete yon vwal sou figi li.
After Moses finished talking with them, he put a veil over his face.
34 Men nenpòt lè Moïse te antre devan SENYÈ a pou pale avèk Li, li te retire vwal la pou jis lè li te sòti. Epi nenpòt lè li te vin sòti, li te pale avèk fis Israël yo sa ke Senyè a te kòmande yo.
However, whenever Moses went in to talk with the Lord, he would take off the veil until he came out again. Then he would tell the Israelites the Lord's instructions,
35 Fis Israël yo te wè figi Moïse, ke po figi li t ap briye. Alò, Moïse te remete vwal la sou figi li jis lè li te vin antre pou pale avèk SENYÈ a.
and the Israelites would see his face shining brightly. So he would put the veil over his face until the next time he went to talk with the Lord.
