Jozye 22
1 Konsa, Josué te rele tout Ribenit yo ak Gadit yo ak mwatye tribi Manassé a.
In the same tyme Josue clepide men of Ruben, and men of Gad, and half the lynage of Manasses,
2 Li te di yo: “Nou te swiv tout sa ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, te kòmande nou an e nou te koute vwa m nan tout sa ke m te kòmande nou yo.
and seide to hem, Ye han do alle thingis whiche Moises, `seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide to you, also ye obeieden to me in alle thingis;
3 Nou pa t abandone frè nou yo pandan tout jou sila yo, jis rive jodi a, men nou te kenbe lòd a kòmandman a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
nether ye han lefte youre britheren in mych tyme til in to present dai, and ye kepten the comaundement of youre Lord God.
4 Epi koulye a, SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te bay repo a frè nou yo, jan Li fenk pale yo a. Pou sa, vire koulye a e ale nan tant pa nou yo, nan peyi posesyon pa nou an, ke Moïse, sèvitè Bondye a, te bannou lòtbò Jourdain an.
Therfor for youre Lord God yaf reste and pees to youre britheren, as he bihiyte, turne ye ayen, and go ye in to youre tabernaclis, and in to the loond of youre possessioun, which lond Moyses, the `seruaunt of the Lord, yaf to you biyende Jordan;
5 Sèlman, fè atansyon pou swiv kòmandman an ak lalwa ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, te kòmande nou an, pou nou renmen SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, epi mache nan tout chemen Li yo, kenbe kòmandman Li yo, kenbe fèm a Li menm, e sèvi Li avèk tout kè nou e ak tout nanm nou.”
so onely that ye kepe bisili, and fille in werk the comaundement and lawe, `which lawe Moises, the `seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide to you; that ye loue youre Lord God, and go in alle hise weies, and kepe hise heestis, and cleue to hym and serue him in al youre herte, and in al youre soule.
6 Epi Josué te beni yo. Li te voye yo ale, e yo te ale nan pwòp tant pa yo.
And Josue blesside hem, and lefte hem, whiche turneden ayen in to her tabernaclis.
7 Alò, a mwatye tribi sila ki te pou Manassé a, Moïse te ba yo yon posesyon nan Basan; men a lòt la, Josué te ba yo yon posesyon pami frè yo nan lwès lòtbò Jourdain an. Konsa, lè Josué te voye yo ale nan tant yo, li te beni yo,
Sotheli Moyses hadde youe possessioun in Basan to the half lynage of Manasses; and therfor to the half lynage that lefte Josue yaf part among her othere britheren biyendis Jordan, at the west coost therof. And whanne Josue leet hem go in to her tabernaclis, and hadde blessid hem,
8 epi li te di yo: “Retounen vè tant nou yo avèk gran richès, avèk yon gran kantite bèt, avèk ajan, lò, bwonz, fè, e avèk anpil rad. Divize piyaj a lènmi nou yo avèk frè nou.”
he seyde to hem, With myche catel and richessis turne ye ayen to youre seetis; with siluer and gold, and bras, and yrun, and myche clothing; departe ye the prey of enemyes with youre britheren.
9 Fis a Ruben yo ak fis a Gad yo ak mwatye tribi Manassé a te retounen kite fis Israël yo nan Silo, ki te nan peyi Canaan an, pou ale nan peyi Galaad, nan peyi ke yo te posede a, selon kòmand a SENYÈ a ki te soti nan Moïse la.
And the sones of Ruben, and the sones of Gad, and `half the lynage of Manasses turneden ayen, and yeden fro the sones of Israel fro Silo, which is set in the lond of Canaan, that thei schulden entre in to Galaad, the lond of her possessioun, which thei gaten bi `comaundement of the Lord in the hond of Moises.
10 Lè yo te vini nan rejyon Jourdain an, ki nan peyi Canaan an, fis a Ruben yo avèk fis a Gad yo ak mwatye tribi Manassé a te bati yon lotèl la akote Jourdain an, yon lotèl ki parèt byen gran.
And whanne thei hadden come to the litle hillis of Jordan, in to the lond of Canaan, thei bildiden bisidis Jordan an auter of greetnesse ouer comyn mesure.
11 Lè fis Israël yo te tande afè sa a, yo te di: “Gade byen, fis Ruben yo ak fis Gad yo ak mwatye tribi Manassé a gen tan bati yon lotèl nan fwontyè peyi Canaan an, nan rejyon Jourdain an, sou bò ki pou fis Israël yo.”
And whanne the sones of Israel hadden herd this, and certeyn messangeris hadden teld to hem, that the sones of Ruben, and of Gad, and the half lynage of Manasses hadden bildid an auter in the lond of Canaan, on the heepis of Jordan, ayens the sones of Israel,
12 Lè fis Israël yo te vin tande sa a, tout asanble a fis Israël yo te rasanble yo nan Silo pou monte kont yo nan lagè.
alle camen togidir in Silo, that thei schulden stie, and fiyte ayens hem.
13 Alò, fis Israël yo te voye prèt la, Phinées, fis Éléazar a, kote fis Ruben yo avèk fis Gad yo ak mwatye tribi Manassé a pou antre nan peyi Galaad la.
And in the meene tyme thei senten to hem in to the lond of Galaad, Fynees, preest,
14 Ansanm avèk li, dis chèf yo, yon chèf pou kay a chak fanmi zansèt nan tribi Israël yo; epi yo chak se te tèt an chèf kay fanmi zansèt li pami milye an Israël yo.
the sone of Eleazar, and ten princes with hym; of ech lynage o prince.
15 Yo te vin kote fis Ruben yo, kote fis Gad yo ak kote mwatye tribi Manassé a, nan peyi Galaad la. Yo te pale avèk yo e te di:
Whiche camen to the sones of Ruben, and of Gad, and of the half lynage of Manasses, in to the lond of Galaad, and seiden to hem,
16 “Konsa pale tout kongregasyon a SENYÈ a: ‘Ki zak movèz fwa sa ye ke nou te komèt kont Bondye Israël la? Poukisa nou vire kite chemen SENYÈ a jodi a pou bati yon lotèl pou fè rebèl kont SENYÈ a jodi a?
Al the puple of the Lord sendith these thingis; What is this trespassyng? Whi han ye forsake the Lord God of Israel, and han bildid a cursid auter, and han go awei fro the worschiping of hym?
17 Èske inikite Peor a pa t sifi pou nou, nan sila nou poko pwòp jis rive jodi a, sepandan yon epidemi te vin parèt sou asanble SENYÈ a,
Whether it is litil to you that ye synneden in Belfegor, and the wem of this trespas dwellith in you til in to present dai, and many of the puple felden doun?
18 ke nou bezwen vire kite Jodi a chemen SENYÈ a? Si nou fè rebèl kont SENYÈ a Jodi a, Li va fache avèk tout asanble Israël la demen.
And to day ye han forsake the Lord, and to morewe, that is, in tyme to comynge, the ire of hym schal be feers ayens al Israel.
19 Si, malgre sa, peyi posesyon nou an pa pwòp, alò, travèse antre nan peyi posesyon SENYÈ a, kote tabènak SENYÈ a kanpe a pou vin pran posesyon pami nou. Sèlman, pa fè rebèl kont SENYÈ a, ni fè rebèl kont nou avèk lotèl ke nou bati pou kont nou an, anplis ke lotèl SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
That if ye gessen, that the lond of youre possessioun is vncleene, passe to the lond, `in which the tabernacle of the Lord is, and dwelle ye among vs, oneli that ye go not awei fro the Lord, and fro oure felouschipe, bi an auter bildid outakun the auter of oure Lord God.
20 Èske Acan, fis Zérach la, pa t aji an movèz fwa nan zafè bagay ki te dedye anba ve a e kòlè te tonbe sou tout asanble a SENYÈ a? Epi se pa mesye sa a sèl ki te peri nan inikite l la.’”
Whether not Achar, the sone of Zare, passide the comaundement of the Lord, and his ire felde on al the puple of Israel? And he was o man; and we wolden that he aloone hadde perischid in his trespas.
21 Epi fis Ruben yo ak fis Gad yo ak mwatye tribi Manassé a te reponn e te pale avèk chèf an tèt fanmi a Israël yo.
And the sones of Ruben, and of Gad, and of half the lynage of Manasses, answeriden to the princes of the message of Israel,
22 Sila ki Toupwisan an, Bondye SENYÈ a, Sila ki Toupwisan an, Bondye SENYÈ a, Li menm ki konnen! E Li menm va kite Israël konnen tou a. Si se te nan rebelyon, oswa si se nan movèz fwa, yon zak ki fèt kont SENYÈ a, pa sove lavi nou jodi a!
The strongeste Lord God hym silf of Israel knowith, and Israel schal vndirstonde togidere; if we bildiden this auter for entent of trespassyng, `that is, of ydolatrye, he kepe not vs, but punysche in present time;
23 Si nou bati pou kont nou yon lotèl pou detounen pa swiv SENYÈ a, oswa si pou nou ofri yon ofrann brile, oswa yon ofrann sereyal sou li, oswa si se pou ofri sakrifis lapè sou li, ke SENYÈ a, li menm, fè demann sa a.
and if we diden bi that mynde, that we schulden putte theronne brent sacrifice, and sacrifice, and pesible sacrifices, he seke, and deme;
24 “Men anverite, si nou pa t fè sa avèk lakrent Bondye avèk yon bi ki te di ke: ‘Nan tan k ap vini an, fis ou yo kapab di a fis nou yo: “Ki relasyon nou gen avèk SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la?
and not more `bi that thouyt and tretyng that we seiden, Youre sones schulen seie `to morew to oure sones, What is to you and to the Lord God of Israel? Ye sones of Ruben,
25 Paske SENYÈ a te fè Jourdain nan yon lizyè antre nou ak ou, nou menm, fis a Ruben yo ak fis a Gad yo. Nou pa gen pòsyon nan SENYÈ a.”’” Pou sa a, li ta kab fèt ke fis ou yo ta ka petet fè pitit pa nou vin pa gen krent SENYÈ a.
and ye sones of Gad, the Lord hath set a terme, the flood Jordan, bitwixe vs and you; and therfor ye han not part in the Lord; and bi this occasioun youre sones schulen turne awei oure sones fro the drede of the Lord. Therfor we gessiden betere,
26 “Pou sa, nou te di: ‘Annou bati yon lotèl, pa pou ofrann brile ni pou sakrifis;
and seiden, Bilde we an auter to vs, not in to brent sacrifices, nethir to sacrifices to be offrid,
27 men sa va pou yon temwen antre nou avèk ou menm ak antre jenerasyon ki swiv nou yo, ke nou kapab fè sèvis SENYÈ a devan Li avèk ofrann brile nou, avèk sakrifis nou yo e avèk ofrann lapè nou yo;’ pou fis pa w yo pa vin di a fis pa nou yo nan tan ki pou vini an: ‘Nou pa gen pòsyon nan SENYÈ a.’
but in to witnessyng bitwixe vs and you, and bitwixe oure children and youre generacioun, that we serue the Lord, and that it be of oure riyt to offre brent sacrifices, and sacrifices, and pesible sacrifices; and that youre sones seie not to morewe to oure sones, No part in the Lord is to you.
28 “Pou sa, nou te di, ‘Li va osi vin rive ke si yo di sa a nou, oswa a jenerasyon nou k ap vini an, alò nou va di: “Nou wè modèl lotèl ke zansèt nou yo te fè a, pa pou ofrann brile, ni pou fè sakrifis; men olye de sa, li se yon temwen antre nou menm ak ou menm.”’
And if `youre sones wolen seie this, `oure sones schulen answere hem, Lo! the auter of the Lord, which oure fadris maden, not in to brent sacrifices, nether in to sacrifice, but in to oure and your witnessing euerlastinge.
29 Lwen de nou ke nou ta fè rebèl kont SENYÈ a pou vin detounen pa swiv SENYÈ a jodi a, pou nou ta bati yon lotèl ofrann brile, oswa ofrann sereyal, oswa sakrifis, ot ke lotèl ki pou SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ki devan tabènak pa Li a!”
Fer be this trespas fro vs, that we go awei fro the Lord, and forsake hise steppis, bi an auter bildid to brent sacrifices, and sacrifices, and sacrifices of preisyng to be offrid, outakun the auter of oure `Lord God, which is bildid bifore his tabernacle.
30 Lè Phinées, prèt la, avèk chèf asanble yo, menm chèf an tèt a fanmi zansèt Israël ki te avèk li yo, te tande pawòl ke fis Ruben yo, fis Gad yo ak fis Manassé yo te pale, sa te fè kè yo kontan.
And whanne these thingis weren herd, Fynees, preest, and the princes of message of Israel, that weren with hym, weren plesyd; and thei resseyueden gladli the wordis of the sones of Ruben, and of Gad, and of the half lynage of Manasses.
31 Phinées, fis a Éléazar a, prèt la, te di a fis Ruben yo, fis Gad yo ak fis Manassé yo: “Jodi a, nou konnen ke SENYÈ a pami nou, akoz nou pa t fè zak malonèt sila a kont SENYÈ a. Koulye a, nou gen tan livre fis Israël yo soti nan men SENYÈ a.”
And Finees, preest, the sone of Eleazar, seide to hem, Now we wyten, that the Lord is with you; for ye ben alien fro this trespassyng, and ye han delyuered the sones of Israel fro the hond, `that is, punyschyng, of the Lord.
32 Alò, Phinées, fis a Éléazar a, prèt la, avèk chèf yo te retounen sòti nan fis Ruben yo ak nan fis Gad yo, nan peyi Galaad la, yo te rive nan peyi Canaan an vè fis Israël yo e te pote pawòl sa ba yo.
And Fynees turnede ayen with the princes fro the sones of Ruben and of Gad, fro the lond of Galaad to the coost of Canaan, to the sones of Israel; and he telde to hem.
33 Pawòl la te fè kè kontan pami fis Israël yo, e fis Israël yo te beni Bondye. Yo pa t pale ankò afè fè lagè pou detwi peyi kote fis a Ruben yo avèk fis a Gad yo te rete a.
And the word pleside to alle men herynge; and the sones of Israel preisiden God, and seiden, that no more `thei schulden stie ayens hem, and fiyte, and do awei the lond of her possessioun.
34 Fis a Ruben yo avèk fis a Gad yo te rele lotèl la “Temwen lan Antre Nou, ke SENYÈ a Se Bondye.”
And the sones of Ruben and the sones of Gad clepiden the auter, which thei hadden bildid, Oure Witnessyng, that the Lord hym silf is God.
