< Jozye 17 >

1 Alò, sa se tiraj osò a pou Manassé, paske li te premye ne a Joseph. Pou Makir, premye ne a Manassé a, papa a Galaad ak Basan, paske li te yon nonm lagè.
Forsothe lot felde in to the lynage of Manasse, for he is the firste gendrid sone of Joseph; lot felde to Machir, the firste gendrid sone of Manasses, to the fadir of Galaad, that was a werriour, and he hadde possessioun Galaad and Basan.
2 Epi tiraj osò a te fèt pou lòt fis Manassé yo selon fanmi pa yo: pou fis a Abiézer a, pou fis a Hélek la, pou fis a Asriel yo, e fis a Sichem yo, pou fis a Hépher yo ak pou fis a Schemida yo; sa yo se te desandan mesye a Manassé yo, fis a Joseph la selon fanmi pa yo.
And lot felde to the othere of the sones of Manasses, bi her meynees; to the sones of Abiezer, and to the sones of Heleth, and to the sones of Hesriel, and to the sones of Sichen, and to the sones of Epher, and to the sones of Semyda; these ben the sones of Manasse, sone of Joseph, the male children, bi her meynees.
3 Men Tselophchad, fis a Hépher a, fis a Galaad la, fis a Makir a, fis a Manassé a, pa t gen fis, men sèlman fi. Sila yo se non a fi li yo: Machla, Noa, Hogla, Milca ak Thirtsa.
Sotheli to Salphaat, the sone of Epher, sone of Galaad, sone of Machir, sone of Manasses, weren not sones, but douytris aloone; of whiche these ben the names, Maala, and Noa, and Eegla, and Melcha, and Thersa.
4 Yo te vin pwoche Éléazar, prèt la, ak devan Josué, fis a Nun nan, ak devan chèf yo, e yo te di: “SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse pou bannou yon eritaj pami frè nou yo.” Konsa, selon kòmand a SENYÈ a, li te ba yo yon eritaj pami frè a papa pa yo.
And thei camen in the siyt of Eleazar, preest, and of Josue, sone of Nun, and of the princes, and seiden, The Lord comaundide bi the hond of Moises, that possessioun should be youun to vs in the myddis of oure britheren. And Josue yaf to hem possessioun, bi comaundement of the Lord, in the myddis of the britheren of her fadir.
5 Pou sa, te vin tonbe dis pòsyon tè a Manassé, anplis, tout tè a Galaad ak Basan ki lòtbò Jourdain an,
And ten cordis, `that is, londis mesurid bi ten cordis, felden to Manasses, without the lond of Galaad and of Basan biyende Jordan;
6 akoz fi a Manassé yo te resevwa yon eritaj pami fis li yo. Epi tè Galaad la te apatyen a lòt fis Manassé yo.
for the douytris of Manasses weldiden eritage in the myddis of the sones of hym. Sotheli the lond of Galaad felde in to the part of the sones of Manasses, that weren residue.
7 Lizyè Manassé a te kouri soti Aser a Micmethath, ki nan lès a Sichem. Epi lizyè a te kouri vè sid pou rive kote pèp En-Tappuach yo.
And the terme of Manasses was fro Azer Machynathath, that biholdeth Sichem, and goith out to the riyt side, bisidis the dwelleris of the welle Taphue;
8 Tè Tappuach la te apatyen a Manassé; men Tappuach nan lizyè Manassé a te pou fis a Éphraïm yo.
for the lond of Thaphue, which is bisidis the terme of Manasses, and of the sones of Effraym, felde in the lot of Manasses.
9 Lizyè a te kouri desann rive nan ti rivyè Kana a, bò kote sid a rivyè a (vil sa yo se te pou Éphraïm pami vil a Manassé yo). Epi lizyè a Manassé a te nan kote nò a ti rivyè a e li te fè bout li nan lanmè.
And the terme of the valey of place of rehedis goith doun in the south of the stronde of the citees of Effraym, that ben in the myddis of the citees of Manasses. The terme of Manasses is fro the north of the stronde, and the goyng out therof goith to the see;
10 Kote sid la se te pou Éphraïm e kote nò a se te pou Manassé, lanmè a te lòt lizyè a. Yo te rive vè Aser nan nò e vè Issacar nan lès.
so that the possessioun of Effraym is fro the south, and the possessioun of Manasses fro the north, and the see closith euer either; and tho ben ioyned to hem silf in the linage of Aser fro the north, and in the lynage of Isachar fro the eest.
11 Nan Issacar ak nan Aser, Manassé te gen Beth-Schean avèk bouk li yo, Jibleam avèk bouk li yo, pèp a Dor yo avèk bouk li yo, pèp a En-Dor yo avèk bouk li yo, pèp a Thaanac yo avèk bouk li yo, pèp a Meguiddo yo avèk bouk li yo e twazyèm nan se Napheth.
And the eritage of Manasses was in Isachar and in Aser, Bersan, and the townes therof, and Jeblaan, with hise townes, and the dwellers of Dor, with her citees; and the dwelleris of Endor, with her townes, and also the dwelleris of Thanath, with her townes, and the dwelleris of Maiedo, with her townes, and the thridde part of the citee Nophet.
12 Men fis Manassé yo pa t kab pran posesyon a vil sa yo akoz Kananeyen yo te pèsiste viv nan peyi sa a.
And the sones of Manasses miyten not distrie these citees, but Cananei bigan to dwelle in this lond.
13 Li te rive ke lè fis Israël yo te vin gen fòs, yo te mete Kananeyen yo nan travo fòse; men yo pa t chase yo deyò nèt.
Sotheli aftir that the sones of Israel weren stronge, thei maden suget Cananeis, and maden tributaries to hem silf, and killiden not Cananeis.
14 Alò, fis Joseph yo te pale avèk Josué e te di: “Poukisa mwen te resevwa yon sèl tiraj osò ak yon sèl pòsyon kòm eritaj, paske nou menm se yon pèp ki anpil ke jis koulye a SENYÈ a te beni anpil?”
And the sones of Joseph spaken to Josue, and seiden, Whi hast thou youe to me lond in to possessioun of o lot and part, sithen Y am of so greet multitude, and the Lord hath blesside me, `that is, hath alargid me in children?
15 Josué te di yo: “Si nou se yon pèp ki anpil, ale monte nan forè a pou netwaye yon plas pou nou la nan peyi Ferezyen avèk Rephaïm yo; akoz peyi ti kolin Éphraïm nan twò etwat pou nou.”
To whiche Josue seide, If thou art myche puple, stie thou into the wode, and kitte doun to thee spaces in the lond of Feresei, and of Raphaym, for the possessioun of the hil of Effraym is streiyt to thee.
16 Epi fis Joseph yo te reponn: “Peyi ti kolin nan pa kont pou nou e tout Kananeyen yo ki rete nan plèn nan gen cha ki fèt an fè, ni sila ki nan Beth-Schean avèk bouk pa li yo ak sila ki nan vale Jizreel la.”
To whom the sones of Joseph answerden, We moun not stie to the hilli places, sithen Cananeis, that dwellen in the `lond of the feeld, vsen ironne charis; in which lond Bersan, with hise townes, and Jesrael, weldynge the myddil valey, ben set.
17 Josué te pale avèk lakay Joseph, a Éphraïm avèk Manassé e te di: “Nou se yon pèp ki anpil e ki gen gran pouvwa. Nou p ap gen yon sèl tiraj osò,
And Josue seide to the hows of Joseph, and of Effraym, and of Manasses, Thou art myche puple, and of greet strengthe; thou schalt not haue o lot,
18 men peyi ti kolin yo va vin pou nou. Men se yon forè ke li ye, nou va eklèsi li e lizyè ki pi lwen nan li yo va vin pou nou; paske nou va chase met deyò Kananeyen yo, malgre yo gen cha ki fèt an fè e malgre yo gen fòs.”
but thou schalt passe to the hil, and thou schalt kitte doun to thee; and thou schalt clense spaces to dwelle. And thou schalt mow go forth ferthere, whanne thou hast distried Cananei, whom thou seist to haue irone charis, and to be moost strong.
