Jenèz 24
1 Alò, Abraham te vin vye, byen avanse nan laj. Epi SENYÈ a te beni Abraham nan tout bagay.
And Abraham he was old he had come in days and Yahweh he had blessed Abraham in everything.
2 Abraham te di a sèvitè li a, sila ki te gen plis laj lakay li a, ki te an chaj tout sa ke li te posede: “Souple, mete men ou anba kwis mwen.
And he said Abraham to servant his old of household his who was ruling over all that [belonged] to him put please hand your under thigh my.
3 Mwen va fè ou sèmante devan SENYÈ a, Bondye syèl la avèk Bondye tè a, ke ou p ap pran yon madanm pou fis mwen ki sòti nan fi Kananeyen yo, pami moun m ap viv yo,
So I may make swear you by Yahweh [the] God of the heavens and [the] God of the earth that not you will take a wife for son my from [the] daughters of the Canaanite[s] whom I [am] dwelling in midst its.
4 men ke ou va ale nan peyi mwen, kote relasyon mwen yo, e pran yon madanm pou fis mwen an, Isaac.”
For to land my and to kindred my you will go and you will take a wife for son my for Isaac.
5 Sèvitè a te di li: “Sipoze ke fanm nan pa vle swiv mwen pou vini nan peyi a? Èske mwen dwe mennen fis ou a retounen nan peyi kote ou te soti a?”
And he said to him the servant perhaps not she will be willing the woman to go after me to the land this ¿ really will I take back son your to the land where you came out from there.
6 Abraham te di li: “Veye ke ou pa pran fis mwen an pou fè l retounen la!
And he said to him Abraham take heed to yourself lest you should take back son my there towards.
7 SENYÈ a, Bondye syèl la ki te pran m, fè m sòti lakay papa m, peyi natal mwen, ki te pale avèk mwen; Li te sèmante ak mwen, e Li te di: ‘A desandan ou yo, Mwen va bay tè sa a’. Li va voye zanj Li devan ou, e ou va pran yon madanm pou fis mwen an soti la.
Yahweh - [the] God of the heavens who he took me from [the] household of father my and from [the] land of kindred my and who he spoke to me and who he swore an oath to me saying to offspring your I will give the land this he he will send angel his before you and you will take a wife for son my from there.
8 Men si fanm nan pa vle swiv ou, alò ou va lib de sèman pa m nan, Sèlman, pa fè fis mwen an retounen la.”
And if not she will be willing the woman to go after you and you will be free from oath my this only son my not you must take back there towards.
9 Alò, sèvitè a te plase men l anba kwis mèt li, Abraham, e li te sèmante devan li sou zafè sila a.
And he put the servant hand his under [the] thigh of Abraham master his and he swore an oath to him on the matter this.
10 Epi sèvitè a te pran dis chamo pami chamo mèt li yo, e li te pati avèk yon seleksyon plizyè bon bagay a mèt li nan men l. Li te leve pou ale nan Mésopotamie pou rive nan vil Nahor.
And he took the servant ten camels from [the] camels of master his and he went and every good thing of master his [was] in hand his and he arose and he went to Aram Naharaim to [the] city of Nahor.
11 Li te fè chamo yo bese a jenou deyò vil la toupre pwi a nan aswè, nan lè ke fanm yo te vin rale dlo.
And he made kneel the camels from [the] outside of the city to [the] well of the water to [the] time of evening to [the] time of [the] going out of the [women who] draw water.
12 Li te di: “O Senyè, Bondye a mèt mwen an, Abraham, souple, lese mwen twouve siksè jodi a, e montre lanmou ak dousè Ou anvè mèt mwen, Abraham.
And he said - O Yahweh [the] God of master my Abraham make happen please before me this day and do covenant loyalty with master my Abraham.
13 Gade byen, m ap kanpe akote sous la, e fi a pèp vil yo ap parèt pou rale dlo.
Here! I [am] standing at [the] spring of the water and [the] daughters of [the] people of the city [are] coming out to draw water.
14 Koulye a, kite sa fèt ke a fi ke mwen di: ‘Souple, desann veso ou pou m kab bwè’, e ki reponn: ‘Bwè, e mwen va bay bèt ou yo dlo tou’: lese ke se sila ke Ou te chwazi pou sèvitè ou a, Isaac. Konsa nou va konnen ke Ou te montre lanmou ak dousè Ou a mèt mwen an.”
And it will be the young woman whom I will say to her bend down please jar your so I may drink and she will say drink and also camels your I will give a drink to her you have appointed for servant your for Isaac and by it I will know that you have done covenant loyalty with master my.
15 Avan li te fin pale, gade, Rebecca ki te ne a Bethuel, fi Milca a, fanm Nachor, frè Abraham nan te parèt ak veso sou zepòl li.
And it was he not yet he had finished to speak and there! Rebekah [was] coming out who she had been born to Bethuel [the] son of Milcah [the] wife of Nahor [the] brother of Abraham and jar her [was] on shoulder her.
16 Fi a te trè bèl, yon vyèj, e gason pa t janm antre nan relasyon avè l. Li te desann nan sous la, li te ranpli veso li, e li t ap monte.
And the young woman [was] good of appearance exceedingly a virgin and a man not he had known her and she went down the spring towards and she filled jar her and she came up.
17 Alò, sèvitè a te kouri bò kote li, e te di: “Souple, kite mwen bwè yon ti dlo nan veso ou a.”
And he ran the servant to meet her and he said give to drink me please a little of water from jar your.
18 Li te di: “Bwè, mèt mwen.” Byen vit li te desann veso li rive nan men li, e li te bay li bwè.
And she said drink O lord my and she hurried and she put down jar her on hand her and she gave a drink him.
19 Lè li te fin ba li bwè, li te di: “Mwen va rale dlo osi pou chamo ou yo, jiskaske yo fin bwè”.
And she finished to give a drink him and she said also for camels your I will draw water until they have finished to drink.
20 Imedyatman li te vide veso li nan basen pou bèt yo, li te kouri retounen nan pwi a pou rale dlo, e li te rale pou tout chamo li yo.
And she hurried and she emptied jar her into the watering channel and she ran again to the well to draw water and she drew water for all camels his.
21 Antretan, nonm nan t ap veye li an silans, pou konnen si SENYÈ a te fè vwayaj li a vin yon siksè, ou non.
And the man [was] gazing to her being silent to know ¿ had he made successful Yahweh journey his or? not.
22 Epi pandan chamo yo te fin bwè, nonm nan te pran bag lò ki peze yon mwatye sik (sis gram nan) avèk de braslè pou ponyèt li, ki te peze dis sik an lò,
And it was just as they had finished the camels to drink and he took the man a ring of gold [was] a beka weight its and two bracelets on hands her [was] ten of gold weight their.
23 epi li te mande: “Se fi a ki moun ou ye? Souple, fè m konnen, èske gen lojman lakay papa ou?”
And he said daughter of whom? [are] you tell please to me ¿ [is] there [the] house of father your room for us to stay [the] night.
24 Li te di li: “Mwen se fi Bethuel la, fis Milca, ke li te fè pou Nahor a.”
And she said to him [am] [the] daughter of Bethuel I [the] son of Milcah whom she bore to Nahor.
25 Ankò fi a te di li: “Nou gen ase, nan pay avèk manje, ak espas pou lojman”.
And she said to him both straw as well as fodder much which [is] with us also room to stay [the] night.
26 Alò, mesye a te bese byen ba, e li te adore SENYÈ a.
And he bowed low the man and he bowed down to Yahweh.
27 Li te di: “Beni se SENYÈ a, Bondye a mèt mwen an, Abraham, ki pa t abandone lanmou avèk konpasyon Li ak verite Li anvè mèt mwen. Pou mwen, SENYÈ a te dirije m nan chemen lakay de frè a mèt mwen yo.”
And he said [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of master my Abraham who not he has left covenant loyalty his and faithfulness his from with master my I on the journey he has led me Yahweh [the] house of [the] relatives of master my.
28 Alò, fi a te kouri pou pale tout kay manman l de bagay sa yo.
And she ran the young woman and she told to [the] household of mother her according to the things these.
29 Fi a te gen yon frè ki te rele Laban. Laban te kouri deyò kote mesye a nan sous la.
And [belonged] to Rebekah a brother and name his [was] Laban and he ran Laban to the man the outside towards to the spring.
30 Lè li te wè bag la avèk braslè yo sou ponyèt sè li, e lè li te tande pawòl a Rebecca yo, sè li, ki te di: “Se sa ke mesye a te di mwen,” li te ale kote mesye a. Gade byen, li te kanpe akote chamo yo nan sous la.
And it was - when saw the ring and the bracelets on [the] hands of sister his and just as heard he [the] words of Rebekah sister his saying thus he spoke to me the man and he went to the man and there! [he was] standing with the camels at the spring.
31 Epi li te di: “Antre non, beni a SENYÈ a! Poukisa ou kanpe deyò, Paske m gen tan prepare kay la avèk yon plas pou chamo yo?”
And he said come O [one] blessed of Yahweh why? are you standing on the outside and I I have made clear the house and a place for the camels.
32 Alò, mesye a te antre nan kay la. Laban te dechaje chamo yo, e li te bay pay avèk manje pou chamo yo, ak dlo pou lave pye li, avèk pye a mesye ki te avèk li yo.
And he went the man the house towards and he unharnessed the camels and he gave straw and fodder to the camels and water to wash feet his and [the] feet of the men who [were] with him.
33 Men lè manje a te plase devan li, li te di: “Mwen p ap manje jiskaske mwen pale de misyon mwen an.” Laban te di: “Pale toujou”.
(And it was put *Q(K)*) before him to eat and he said not I will eat until I have spoken words my and he said speak.
34 Li te di: “Mwen se sèvitè Abraham.
And he said [am] [the] servant of Abraham I.
35 SENYÈ a te beni mèt mwen an anpil, jiskaske li vin reyisi anpil. Li te bay li bann mouton ak twoupo, lò ak lajan, sèvitè ak sèvant yo, e chamo ak bourik.
And Yahweh he has blessed master my exceedingly and he has become great and he has given to him sheep and cattle and silver and gold and [male] servants and female servants and camels and donkeys.
36 Alò, Sarah, madanm a mèt mwen an te fè yon fis pou mèt mwen an nan vyeyès li. Li te bay li tout sa li posede.
And she has borne Sarah [the] wife of master my a son to master my after old age her and he has given to him all that [belongs] to him.
37 Mèt mwen an te fè m sèmante pou di: ‘Ou pa pou pran yon madanm pou fis mwen ki sòti nan fi Kananeyen yo, nan peyi kote m ap viv la,
And he made swear an oath me master my saying not (you must take *LA(bh)*) a wife for son my from [the] daughters of the Canaanite[s] whom I [am] dwelling in land its.
38 men ou va ale kote lakay papa m, nan moun fanmi pa m yo, e pran yon madanm pou fis mwen an.’
If not to [the] house of father my you will go and to family my and you will take a wife for son my.
39 “Mwen te di a mèt mwen an: ‘Sipoze ke fanm nan pa swiv mwen.’
And I said to master my perhaps not she will go the woman after me.
40 “Li te di mwen: ‘SENYÈ a devan Sila mwen te mache a, va fè vwayaj ou a reyisi. Ou va pran yon madanm pou fis mwen an pami moun fanmi mwen yo, ak lakay papa m.
And he said to me Yahweh whom I have walked about before him he will send angel his with you and he will make successful journey your and you will take a wife for son my from family my and from [the] household of father my.
41 Epi konsa, ou va lib de sèman mwen an, si lè ou rive pami moun fanmi mwen yo, yo pa ba ou li. Si se sa a, ou va lib de sèman mwen an.’
Then you will be free from oath my for you will go to family my and if not they will give [her] to you and you will be free from oath my.
42 “Konsa, mwen te vini jodi a nan sous la, e te di: ‘O SENYÈ, Bondye a mèt mwen an, Abraham, si koulye a ou va fè vwayaj ke m ap fè a reyisi.
And I came this day to the spring and I said O Yahweh [the] God of master my Abraham if [are] there you please [are] making successful journey my which I [am] going on it.
43 Gade byen, mwen ap kanpe vè sous la, kite sa fèt ke jèn fi ki sòti pou rale dlo a, e ke mwen di: “Souple, kite m bwè yon ti dlo nan veso ou a”,
Here! I [am] standing at [the] spring of the water and it will be the young woman who will come out to draw water and I will say to her give to drink me please a little of water from jar your.
44 epi li di mwen: ‘Ou mèt bwè, e mwen va tire dlo pou chamo ou yo tou,’ kite sa fèt ke se li ke SENYÈ a te chwazi pou fis a mèt mwen an.”
And she will say to me both you drink and also for camels your I will draw water she [be] the woman whom he has appointed Yahweh for [the] son of master my.
45 “Avan mwen te fin pale nan kè mwen, gade byen, Rebecca te parèt avèk veso li sou zepòl li, e li te desann nan sous la pou tire. Mwen te di li: ‘Souple, kite m bwè.’”
I not yet I had finished to speak to heart my and there! Rebekah [was] coming out and jar her [was] on shoulder her and she went down the spring towards and she drew water and I said to her give a drink me please.
46 “Li te byen vit desann veso a sou zepòl li, e li te di: ‘Bwè’, e mwen va bay bèt ou yo dlo tou’: Alò, mwen te bwè, e li te bay bèt yo dlo tou.
And she hurried and she put down jar her from on her and she said drink and also camels your I will give a drink to and I drank and also the camels she gave a drink.
47 “Mwen te mande li konsa: ‘Fi a ki moun ou ye?’ Epi li te reponn: ‘Fi a Bethuel la, fis a Nachor, ke Milca te bay li a.’ Epi konsa, mwen te mete bag la nan nen li, e braslè yo nan ponyèt li.
And I asked her and I said daughter of whom? [are] you and she said [the] daughter of Bethuel [the] son of Nahor whom she bore to him Milcah and I put the ring on nose her and the bracelets on hands her.
48 “Epi mwen te bese byen ba, mwen te adore SENYÈ a, e te beni SENYÈ a, Bondye a mèt mwen an, Abraham, ki te gide mwen nan bon chemen pou pran fi nan fanmi mèt mwen an pou fis li.
And I bowed low and I bowed down to Yahweh and I blessed Yahweh [the] God of master my Abraham who he had led me in [the] way of truth to take [the] daughter of [the] brother of master my for son his.
49 Alò, koulye a, si w ap aji avèk dousè e verite avèk mèt mwen an, fè m konnen. Men si se pa sa, kite m konnen, pou m kapab vire swa adwat, swa agoch.”
And now if [are] there you doing loyalty and faithfulness with master my tell to me and if not tell to me so I may turn to right or to left.
50 Laban avèk Bethuel te reponn: “Afè sa a sòti nan SENYÈ a. Alò nou pa kapab pale ou ni byen, ni mal.
And he answered Laban and Bethuel and they said from Yahweh it has come out the matter not we are able to speak to you evil or good.
51 Men Rebecca la devan ou, pran li pou ou ale, e ke li vin madanm a fis mèt ou a, jan SENYÈ a te pale a.”
Here! Rebekah [is] before you take [her] and go so may she be a wife for [the] son of master your just as he has spoken Yahweh.
52 Lè sèvitè Abraham nan te tande pawòl sa yo, li te bese tèt li atè devan SENYÈ a.
And it was just as he heard [the] servant of Abraham words their and he bowed down [the] ground towards to Yahweh.
53 Sèvitè a te mete deyò bagay ki fèt ak lajan avèk lò, ak vètman, e li te bay yo a Rebecca. Li te osi bay kèk bagay ki koute byen chè a frè li avèk manman li.
And he brought out the servant articles of silver and articles of gold and garments and he gave [them] to Rebekah and precious gifts he gave to brother her and to mother her.
54 Li menm avèk mesye ki te avè l yo te manje, bwè e te pase nwit lan. Lè yo te leve nan maten li te di: “Voye mwen ale vè mèt mwen.”
And they ate and they drank he and the men who [were] with him and they stayed [the] night and they arose in the morning and he said send away me to master my.
55 Men frè li avèk manman li te di: “Kite fi a rete avèk nou pandan kèk jou, annou di di jou. Apre li kapab ale”.
And he said brother her and mother her let her remain the young woman with us days or ten (after *L(S)*) she will go.
56 Li te reponn yo: “Pa anpeche m, paske se SENYÈ a ki te fè chemen mwen an reyisi. Voye m ale pou m kapab retounen bò kote mèt mwen.”
And he said to them may not you delay me and Yahweh he has made successful journey my send away me so let me go to master my.
57 Epi yo te di: “Nou va rele fi a pou mande li volonte pa li.”:
And they said let us summon the young woman and let us ask mouth her.
58 Alò, yo te rele Rebecca e te di li: “Èske ou va ale avèk mesye sila a?” Epi li te reponn: “M ap prale.”
And they summoned Rebekah and they said to her ¿ will you go with the man this and she said I will go.
59 Konsa yo te voye Rebecca, sè yo a ale, avèk bòn li yo, sèvitè Abraham nan ak mesye pa li yo.
And they sent away Rebekah sister their and suckling-nurse her and [the] servant of Abraham and men his.
60 Yo te beni Rebecca, e te di li: “Ke ou menm, sè nou, kapab devni manman a dè milye de dizèn de milye, e ke desandan ou yo kapab posede pòtay a sila ki rayi yo.”
And they blessed Rebekah and they said to her O sister our you become thousands of ten thousand so may it take possession of offspring your [the] gate of [those who] hate it.
61 Epi Rebecca te leve avèk bòn li yo, yo te monte chamo yo, e yo te swiv mesye a. Konsa sèvitè a te pran Rebecca, e li te pati.
And she arose Rebekah and maids her and they rode on the camels and they went after the man and he took the servant Rebekah and he went.
62 Alò, Isaac t ap sòti nan yon vwayaj vè Lachaï-roi, paske li t ap viv nan Negev.
And Isaac he came from going Beer Lahai Roi and he [was] dwelling in [the] land of the Negev.
63 Isaac te ale deyò pou fè meditasyon nan chan an nan aswè. Lè li te leve zye li pou gade, gade byen, chamo yo t ap vini.
And he went out Isaac to meditate in the field to [the] turning of evening and he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! camels [were] coming.
64 Rebecca te leve zye li, e lè li te wè Isaac, li te desann chamo a.
And she lifted up Rebekah eyes her and she saw Isaac and she fell from on the camel.
65 Li te di sèvitè a: “Kilès mesye sa a k ap mache nan chan an vin jwenn nou an?” Epi sèvitè a te reponn: “Li se mèt mwen.” Konsa, fi a te pran vwal la, e li te kouvri tèt li.
And she said to the servant who? [is] the man this who is walking in the field to meet us and he said the servant it [is] master my and she took the veil and she covered herself.
66 Sèvitè a te di Isaac tout sa ke li te fè.
And he recounted the servant to Isaac all the things which he had done.
67 Epi Isaac te mennen li nan tant li. Li te pran Rebecca, e li te vin madanm li, e li te renmen li. Konsa Isaac te konsole lè manman li te fin mouri.
And he brought her Isaac the tent of towards Sarah mother his and he took Rebekah and she became of him a wife and he loved her and he was comforted Isaac after mother his.
