Jozye 6
1 Alò, Jéricho te byen sere pa fis Israël yo. Pèsòn pa t sòti ni antre.
Now Jericho was shut up and was barred, because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
2 SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Gade, Mwen te livre Jéricho nan men ou, avèk wa li ak gèrye vanyan li yo.
And Jehovah said to Joshua, See, I have given into thy hand Jericho, and the king thereof, [and] the valiant men.
3 Mache antoure vil la avèk tout mesye lagè nou yo pou l tou ansèkle li yon fwa. Ou va fè sa pandan si jou.
And ye shall go round the city, all the men of war, encompassing the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
4 Anplis, sèt prèt va pote sèt twonpèt fèt ak kòn belye devan lach la. “Konsa, nan setyèm jou a, nou va mache antoure vil la sèt fwa e prèt yo va soufle twonpèt yo.
And seven priests shall carry before the ark seven blast-trumpets; and on the seventh day ye shall go round the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
5 Li va vin rive ke lè yo fè yon gwo son avèk kòn belye a, lè nou tande son twonpèt la, tout pèp la va rele fò avèk yon gwo bri; epi miray vil la va tonbe plat e pèp la va monte, chak moun tou dwat.”
And it shall come to pass when they make a long blast with the blast-horn, that all the people on hearing the sound of the trumpet shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall flat, and the people shall go up, each one straight before him.
6 Konsa, Josué, fis la a Nun nan, te rele prèt yo. Li te di yo: “Pran lach akò a, e kite sèt prèt yo pote sèt twonpèt yo fèt avèk kòn belye yo devan lach SENYÈ a.”
And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them, Carry the ark of the covenant, and seven priests shall carry seven blast-trumpets before the ark of Jehovah.
7 Yo te di a pèp la: “Ale devan, mache antoure vil la e kite mesye ak zam yo ale devan lach SENYÈ a.”
And he said to the people, Pass on, go round the city, and they that are armed shall pass on before the ark of Jehovah.
8 Li te vin rive ke lè Josué te pale avèk pèp la, sèt prèt ki t ap pote sèt twonpèt a kòn belye yo devan SENYÈ a te avanse, e te soufle twonpèt yo, epi lach akò SENYÈ a te swiv yo.
And it came to pass when Joshua had spoken to the people, that the seven priests carrying the seven blast-trumpets before Jehovah passed on and blew with the trumpets; and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah went after them.
9 Mesye avèk zam yo te ale devan prèt ki tap soufle twonpèt yo, epi gad aryè a te swiv lach la, pandan yo te kontinye ap soufle twonpèt yo.
And the armed men went before the priests who blew with the trumpets, and the rearguard came after the ark; they blew with the trumpets in marching.
10 Men Josué te kòmande pèp la e te di: “Nou pa pou rele, ni kite yo tande vwa nou menm. Ni pa kite yon mo sòti nan bouch nou, jis rive jou ke m di nou: ‘Rele fò!’ Alò, nan moman sa a, nou va rele fò!”
And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall a word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I say to you, Shout; then shall ye shout.
11 Konsa, li te fè lach SENYÈ a antoure vil la ansèkle l yon fwa. Konsa, yo te rantre nan kan an, e yo te pase nwit lan la nan kan an.
And the ark of Jehovah went round the city, encompassing [it] once; and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
12 Alò, Josué te leve granmmaten, e prèt yo te leve pran lach SENYÈ a.
And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests carried the ark of Jehovah.
13 Sèt prèt ki te pote sèt twonpèt kòn belye yo devan lach SENYÈ a, te kontinye san rete e te soufle twonpèt yo. Mesye avèk zam yo te ale devan yo, e gad an aryè yo te swiv lach SENYÈ a, pandan yo te kontinye ap soufle twonpèt yo.
And the seven priests carrying the seven blast-trumpets before the ark of Jehovah went on and blew continually with the trumpets; and the armed men went before them, and the rearguard went after the ark of Jehovah; they blew with the trumpets in marching.
14 Konsa, nan dezyèm jou a, yo te mache antoure vil la yon fwa e te retounen nan kan an. Yo te fè konsa pandan si jou.
And on the second day they went round the city once, and returned into the camp. So they did six days.
15 Alò, nan setyèm jou a, yo te leve bonè avan jou, e te mache antoure vil la menm jan an sèt fwa. Sèl nan jou sa a, yo te mache antoure vil la sèt fwa.
And it was so that on the seventh day they rose early, about the morning-dawn, and went round the city after the same manner seven times; only on that day they went round the city seven times.
16 Nan setyèm fwa a, lè prèt yo te soufle twonpèt yo, Josué te di a pèp la: “Rele fò!” Paske SENYÈ a gen tan bannou vil la.
And it came to pass the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, that Joshua said to the people, Shout; for Jehovah has given you the city.
17 “Vil la va vin dedye anba ve, li menm avèk tout sa ki ladann se pou SENYÈ a. Sèl Rahab, pwostitiye a ak tout moun ki avè l nan kay la va viv, akoz li te kache mesaje ke nou te voye yo.
And the city shall be accursed, it and all that is in it, to Jehovah; only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
18 “Men pou nou menm, sèlman kenbe tèt nou apa pou pa fè bagay sa yo ki anba ve pou detwi, pou nou pa anvi yo e pran kèk bagay ki anba ve a, pou fè kay Israël la vin modi pou gwo pwoblèm vin sou li.
But in any wise keep from the accursed thing, lest ye make [yourselves] accursed in taking of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.
19 Men tout ajan avèk lò, zafè an bwonz ak fè, sen a SENYÈ a. Yo va antre nan trezò SENYÈ a.”
And all the silver, and gold, and vessels of copper and iron, shall be holy to Jehovah; they shall come into the treasury of Jehovah.
20 Alò, pèp la te rele fò, prèt yo te soufle twonpèt yo. Lè pèp la te tande son twonpèt la, yo te rele fò avèk yon gwo kri, epi miray la te tonbe plat. Epi konsa, pèp la te antre nan vil la, tout mesye toudwat pou yo te pran vil la.
And the people shouted, and they blew with the trumpets. And it came to pass when the people heard the sound of the trumpets, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat; and the people went up into the city, each one straight before him, and they took the city.
21 Yo te detwi tout bagay nan vil la nèt; ni gason, ni fanm, jèn kon granmoun, ni bèf, ni mouton, ni bourik, pa lam nepe.
And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city; both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
22 Josué te di a de mesye ki te fè espyonaj peyi yo: “Antre lakay pwostitiye a e mete fanm nan avèk tout sa li genyen deyò, jan nou te pwomèt li a.”
And Joshua said to the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house and bring out thence the woman, and all that she has, as ye swore unto her.
23 Konsa, jennonm ki te espyon yo te antre. Yo te mennen Rahab deyò avèk papa l ak manman l, frè li yo avèk tout sa li te genyen. Anplis, yo te mete deyò tout fanmi li yo e te plase yo deyò kan Israël la.
And the young men, the spies, went in and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had: all her kindred did they bring out, and they left them outside the camp of Israel.
24 Yo te brile vil la avèk dife ak tout sa ki ladann. Sèlman ajan avèk lò avèk tout bagay ki te fèt an bwonz ak fè, yo te mete yo nan trezò kay SENYÈ a.
And they burned the city with fire, and all that was therein; only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of copper and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of Jehovah.
25 Sepandan, Rahab, pwostitiye a, avèk tout kay papa l ak tout sa li te genyen, Josué te konsève yo. Epi li te viv nan mitan Israël jis rive jodi a, paske li te kache mesaje ke Josué te voye pou fè espyonaj Jéricho yo.
And Joshua saved alive Rahab the harlot, and her father's household, and all that she had, and she dwelt in the midst of Israel to this day; because she hid the messengers whom Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho.
26 Konsa, Josué te pase lòd sèman an nan lè sa a. Li te di: “Modi devan SENYÈ a se sila ki leve pou rebati vil sa a, Jéricho. Avèk pèt premye ne li yo, li va poze fondasyon li; avèk pèt denyè ne li yo, li va monte pòtay li yo.”
And Joshua swore at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before Jehovah who shall rise up and build this city Jericho! In his first-born shall he lay its foundation, and in his youngest son shall he set up its gates.
27 SENYÈ a te avèk Josué e li te vin byen rekonèt nan tout peyi a.
And Jehovah was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
