< 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.
And the sons of Israel commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, takes from the devoted thing, and the anger of YHWH burns against the sons 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 sends men from Jericho to Ai, which [is] near Beth-Aven, on the east of Bethel, and speaks to them, saying, “Go up and spy out the land”; and the men go up and spy Ai,
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 return to Joshua, and say to him, “Do not let all the people go up; let about two thousand men, or about three thousand men, go up, and they strike Ai; do not cause all the people to labor there; for they [are] few.”
4 Konsa, anviwon twa mil mesye ki sòti nan pèp la te monte; men yo te sove ale devan mesye Aï yo.
So about three thousand men of the people go up from there, and they flee before the men of Ai,
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 Ai strike about thirty-six men from them, and pursue them before the gate to Shebarim, and they strike them in Morad; and the heart of the people is melted, and becomes 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 tears his garments, and falls on his face to the earth before the Ark of YHWH until the evening, he and [the] elderly of Israel, and they cause dust to go up on their head.
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 says, “Aah! Lord YHWH, why have You caused this people to pass over the Jordan at all, to give us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? And oh that we had been willing—and we dwell beyond the Jordan!
8 O SENYÈ, kisa mwen kapab di lòske Israël te vire do yo devan lènmi yo?
Oh, Lord, what do I say, after that Israel has turned the neck before its enemies?
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 the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land hear, and have come around against us, and cut off our name from the earth; and what do 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 YHWH says to Joshua, “Rise, for you—why this—[that] you [are] falling on 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.
Israel has sinned, and they have also transgressed My covenant which I commanded them, and also taken of the devoted thing, and also stolen, and also deceived, and also put [it] among their vessels,
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 sons of Israel have not been able to stand before their enemies; they turn the neck before their enemies, for they have become a devoted thing; I do not add to be with you—if you do not destroy the devoted thing from your midst.
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 you have said, Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow; for thus said YHWH, God of Israel: A devoted thing [is] in your midst, O Israel, you are not able to stand before your enemies until your turning aside the devoted thing from your midst;
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 have been brought near in the morning by your tribes, and it has been [that] the tribe which YHWH captures draws near by families, and the family which YHWH captures draws near by households, and the household which YHWH captures draws near by men;
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 it has been, he who is captured with the devoted thing is burned with fire, he and all that he has, because he has transgressed the covenant of YHWH, and because he has done folly in Israel.”
16 Konsa, Josué te leve bonè nan maten e te fè Israël pwoche pa tribi. Tribi Juda a te pran.
And Joshua rises early in the morning, and brings Israel near by its tribes, and the tribe of Judah is captured;
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 he brings the family of Judah near, and he captures the family of the Zerahite; and he brings the family of the Zerahite near by men, and Zabdi is captured;
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 he brings his household near by men, and Achan—son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah—is captured.
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 says to Achan, “My son, please give glory to YHWH, God of Israel, and give thanks to Him, and now declare to me what you have done—do not hide [it] 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 Achan answers Joshua and says, “Truly I have sinned against YHWH, God of Israel, and I have done thus and thus;
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.”
and I see among the spoil a good robe of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and one wedge of gold, whose weight [is] fifty shekels, and I desire them, and take them; and behold, they [are] hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver [is] under it.”
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 sends messengers, and they run to the tent, and behold, it is hidden in his tent, and the silver [is] under it;
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 take them out of the midst of the tent, and bring them to Joshua, and to all the sons of Israel, and pour them out before YHWH.
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 takes Achan son of Zerah, and the silver, and the robe, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his ox, and his donkey, and his flock, and his tent, and all that he has, and all Israel with him, and they brought them up [to] the Valley of 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 says, “Why have you troubled us? YHWH troubles you this day!” And all Israel cast stone at him, and they burn them with fire, and they stone them 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 raise up a great heap of stones over him to this day, and YHWH turns back from the heat of His anger, therefore [one] has called the name of that place “Valley of Achor” until this day.
