Jozye 7
1 Men fis Israël yo te aji avèk movèz fwa nan bagay ki te dedye anba ve yo; paske Acan, fis a Carmi a, fis a Zabdi, fis a Zérach, nan tribi Juda a, te pran kèk nan bagay ki te dedye anba ve yo. Pou sa, chalè SENYÈ a te brile kont fis Israël yo.
But the children of Israel committed a great trespass, and purloined [part] of the accursed thing; and Achar the son of Charmi, the son of Zambri, the son of Zara, of the tribe of Juda, took of the accursed thing; and the Lord was very angry with the children of Israel.
2 Alò, Josué te voye mesye sòti Jéricho yo vè Aï, ki toupre Beth-Aven an, nan lès a Bethel la. Li te di yo: “Ale monte e fè espyonaj peyi a.” Konsa, mesye yo te monte pou te fè espyonaj Aï.
And Joshua sent men to Gai, which is by Baethel, saying, Spy out Gai: and the men went up and spied Gai.
3 Yo te retounen a Josué e te di li: “Pa kite tout pèp la monte; sèlman de oswa twa mil mesye bezwen monte Aï. Pa fè tout pèp la fòse fè efò a, paske yo pa anpil.”
And they returned to Joshua, and said to him, Let not all the people go up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and take the city by siege: carry not up there the whole people, for [the enemy] are few.
4 Konsa, anviwon twa mil mesye ki sòti nan pèp la te monte; men yo te sove ale devan mesye Aï yo.
And there went up about three thousand men, and they fled from before the men of Gai.
5 Mesye Aï yo te frape yo, mete ba anviwon trann-sis nan mesye yo. Yo te kouri dèyè yo soti nan pòtay la jis rive Schebarim pou te frape yo, mete yo ba pandan yo t ap desann, jiskaske kè pèp la te fonn e te vin tankou dlo.
And the men of Gai killed of them to the number of thirty-six men, and they pursued them from the gate, and destroyed them from the steep hill; and the heart of the people was alarmed and became as water.
6 Josué te chire rad li, e te tonbe atè sou figi li devan lach SENYÈ a, jis rive nan aswè, ni li menm avèk ansyen a Israël yo. Epi yo te mete pousyè sou tèt yo.
And Joshua tore his garments; and Joshua fell on the earth on his face before the Lord until evening, he and the elders of Israel; and they cast dust on their heads.
7 Josué te di: “Ay, O SENYÈ Bondye, poukisa Ou te janmen mennen pèp sila a travèse Jourdain an pou livre yo nan men a Amoreyen yo, pou detwi nou? Si sèlman, nou ta dakò rete lòtbò Jourdain an!
And Joshua said, I pray, Lord, therefore has your servant brought this people over Jordan to deliver them to the Amorite to destroy us? would we had remained and settled ourselves beyond Jordan.
8 O SENYÈ, kisa mwen kapab di lòske Israël te vire do yo devan lènmi yo?
And what shall I say since Israel has turned his back before his enemy?
9 Paske Canaran avèk tout abitan peyi a va tande sa. Yo va antoure nou e efase non nou sou tè a. Epi kisa Ou va fè pou lonè gran non Ou?”
And when the Chananite and all the inhabitants of the land hear it, they shall compass us round and destroy us from off the land: and what will you do [for] your great name?
10 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Leve ou menm! Poukisa ou te tonbe sou figi ou?
And the Lord said to Joshua, Rise up; why have you fallen upon your face?
11 Israël te peche. Yo te anplis, fè transgresyon akò ke Mwen te kòmande yo a. Wi, yo te menm pran kèk nan bagay ki te dedye anba ve yo. Yo te vòlè ak twonpe. Anplis, yo te mete yo pami pwòp afè pa yo.
The people has sinned, and transgressed the covenant which I made with them; they have stolen from the cursed thing, and put it into their store.
12 Pou sa, fis Israël yo pa kapab kanpe devan lènmi yo. Yo vire do yo devan lènmi yo, paske yo te vin modi. Mwen p ap avèk nou ankò amwenske nou detwi bagay ki anba ve soti nan mitan nou yo.
And the children of Israel will not be able to stand before their enemies; they will turn their back before their enemies, for they have become an accursed thing: I will not any longer be with you, unless you remove the cursed thing from yourselves.
13 “Leve ou menm! Konsakre pèp la e di: ‘Konsakre nou menm pou demen. Paske konsa, SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la te di: “Gen bagay ki anba ve a nan mitan nou, O Israël. Ou pa kapab kanpe devan lènmi ou yo jiskaske ou retire bagay ki anba ve yo soti nan mitan ou.”’”
Rise, sanctify the people and tell them to sanctify themselves for the morrow: thus says the Lord God of Israel, The accursed thing is among you; you shall not be able to stand before your enemies, until you shall have removed the cursed thing from among you.
14 “Nan maten, alò, ou va vin toupre tribi ou yo. Epi li va fèt ke tribi ke SENYÈ a pran pa tiraj osò a va apwoche pa fanmi. Epi fanmi ke SENYÈ a pran an va apwoche pa kay yo. Epi kay ke SENYÈ a pran an va pwoche moun pa moun.
And you shall all be gathered together by your tribes in the morning, and it shall come to pass that the tribe which the Lord shall show, you shall bring by families; and the family which the Lord shall show, you shall bring by households; and the household which the Lord shall show, you shall bring man by man.
15 Li va fèt ke sila ki pran bagay ki anba ve a va brile avèk dife, li menm avèk tout sa ki pou li, akoz li te transgrese akò SENYÈ a, e akoz li te fè yon gwo wont an Israël.”
And the man who shall be pointed out, shall be burnt with fire, and all that he has; because he has transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and has wrought wickedness in Israel.
16 Konsa, Josué te leve bonè nan maten e te fè Israël pwoche pa tribi. Tribi Juda a te pran.
And Joshua rose up early, and brought the people by their tribes; and the tribe of Juda was pointed out.
17 Li te fè fanmi Juda pwoche; li te pran fanmi Zérarit yo. Li te fè fanmi Zérarit la pwoche moun pa moun e Zabdi te pran.
And it was brought by their families, and family of the Zaraites was pointed out.
18 Li te fè fanmi lakay li pwoche, moun pa moun, epi Acan, fis a Carmi, fis a Zabdi, fis a Zérach, nan tribi Juda a te pran.
And it was brought man by man, and Achar the son of Zambri the son of Zara was pointed out.
19 Epi Josué te di Acan: “Fis mwen, souple, bay glwa a SENYÈ a, Bondye a Israël la, epi konfese a Li menm. Di mwen koulye a sa ou te fè a. Pa kache li de mwen.”
And Joshua said to Achar, Give glory this day to the Lord God of Israel, and make confession; and tell me what you have done, and hide it not from me.
20 Konsa, Acan te reponn Josué e te di: “Anverite, mwen te peche kont SENYÈ a, Bondye a tout Israël la; men sa mwen te fè a:
And Achar answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned against the Lord God of Israel: thus and thus have I done:
21 Lè mwen te wè nan piyaj la yon bèl manto ki sòti Schinear ak de san sik ajan, yon ba lò a pèz senkant sik, alò, mwen te anvi yo e te pran yo. Epi gade byen, yo kache nan tè anndan tant mwen an avèk ajan an anba li.”
I saw in the spoil an embroidered mantle, and two hundred didrachmas of silver, and one golden wedge of fifty didrachmas, and I desired them and took them; and, behold, they are hid in my tent, and the silver is hid under them.
22 Konsa, Josué te voye mesaje yo. Yo te kouri vè tant lan, epi veye byen, li te kache nan tant li an avèk ajan an anba li.
And Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent into the camp; and these things were hidden in his tent, and the silver under them.
23 Yo te pran yo soti anndan tant lan, epi yo te pote yo vè Josué avèk tout fis Israël yo pou yo te vide yo devan SENYÈ a.
And they brought them out of the tent, and brought them to Joshua and the elders of Israel, and they laid them before the Lord.
24 Epi Josué ak tout Israël avèk li te pran Acan, fis a Zérach la, ajan an, manto a, ba lò a, fis li yo, fi li yo, bèf li yo, bourik li yo, mouton li yo, tant li ak tout sa ki te pou li; epi yo te mennen yo monte nan vale Acor a.
And Joshua took Achar the son of Zara, and brought him to the valley of Achor, and his sons, and his daughters, and his calves, and his asses, and all his sheep, and his tent, and all his property, and all the people [were] with him; and he brought them to Emec Achor.
25 Josué te di: “Poukisa ou te twouble nou? Jodi a, SENYÈ a va twouble ou.” Konsa, tout Israël te lapide yo avèk kout wòch. Epi yo te brile yo avèk dife lè yo te fin lapide yo avèk kout wòch.
And Joshua said to Achar, Why have you destroyed us? the Lord destroy you as at this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones.
26 Yo te fè leve sou li yon gwo pil wòch ki kanpe jis rive jodi a. Epi SENYÈ a te vire kite gwo chalè kòlè Li a. Pou sa, non a plas sa a te vin rele Vale Acan jis rive jodi a.
And they set up over him a great heap of stones; and the Lord ceased from his fierce anger. Therefore he called the place Emecachor until this day.
