Jozye 1
1 Alò, li te vin rive ke apre lanmò Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, ke SENYÈ a te pale avèk Josué, fis a Nun nan, sèvitè Moïse la. Li te di:
And it was doon aftir the deeth of Moyses, seruaunt of the Lord, that the Lord spak to Josue, sone of Nun, the mynystre of Moyses, and seide to hym, Moises, my seruaunt, is deed;
2 “Moïse, sèvitè Mwen an, gen tan mouri. Pou sa, leve, travèse Jourdain sila a, ou menm avèk tout pèp sa a, nan peyi ke Mwen ap bay a yo menm, a fis Israël yo.
rise thou, and passe this Jordan, thou, and al the puple with thee, in to the lond which Y schal yyue to the sones of Israel.
3 “Chak kote ke pla pye ou va pile, Mwen ap ba ou li, jis jan ke Mwen te pale a Moïse la.
Y schal yyue to you ech place which the step of youre foot schal trede, as Y spak to Moyses,
4 Soti nan dezè a ak Liban sila a, menm jis rive nan gran rivyè a, Rivyè Lefrat la, tout peyi Etyen an, jis rive nan Gran Lamè a vè solèy kouche a va teritwa pa nou.
fro the deseert and Liban til to the greet flood Eufrates; al the lond of Etheis, `til to the greet see ayens the goyng doun of the sunne, schal be youre terme.
5 Nanpwen moun ki kapab kanpe devan ou pandan tout jou lavi ou. Menm jan ke Mwen te avèk Moïse la, Mwen va avèk ou. Mwen p ap fè bak ni abandone ou.
Noon schal mow ayenstonde you in alle the daies of thi lijf; as Y was with Moises, so Y schal be with thee; Y schal not leeue, nether Y schal forsake thee.
6 Kenbe fèm e pran kouraj, paske ou va bay pèp sa a posesyon a peyi ke Mwen te sèmante a zansèt yo pou M ba yo a.
Be thou coumfortid, and be thou strong; for thou schalt departe bi lot to this puple the lond, for which Y swoor to thi fadris, that Y schulde yyue it to hem.
7 “Sèlman rete fò avèk anpil kouraj; fè atansyon pou fè tout sa lalwa ke Moïse, sèvitè Mwen an, te kòmande ou fè a. Pa vire ni adwat ni agoch, pou ou kapab reyisi nenpòt kote ke ou ale.
Therfor be thou coumfortid, and be thou ful strong, that thou kepe and do al the lawe, which Moyses, my seruaunt, comaundide to thee; bowe thou not fro it to the riyt side, ether to the left side, that thou vndirstonde alle thingis whiche thou doist.
8 “Liv lalwa sila a pa pou janm kite bouch ou, men ou va reflechi sou li lajounen kon lannwit, pou ou kapab fè atansyon pou fè tout sa ki ekri ladann; paske konsa, ou va fè chemen ou yo pwospere e konsa, yo va byen reyisi.
The book of this lawe departe not fro thi mouth, but thou schalt thenke therynne in daies and nyytis, that thou kepe and do alle thingis that ben writun therynne; thanne thou schalt dresse thi weie, and schalt vndirstonde it.
9 “Èske mwen pa t kòmande ou? Kenbe fèm e pran kouraj! Pa tranble ni enkyete, paske SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, avèk ou nenpòt kote ou ale.”
Lo! Y comaunde to thee; be thou coumfortid, and be thou strong; nyle thou drede `withoutforth, and nyle thou drede withynne; for thi Lord God is with thee in alle thingis, to whiche thou goost.
10 Konsa, Josué te kòmande ofisye pèp yo. Li te di:
And Josue comaundide to the princis of the puple, and seide, Passe ye thoruy the myddis of the castels; and comaunde `ye to the puple, and seie ye, Make ye redi metis to you,
11 “Pase nan mitan kan an e kòmande pèp la pou di yo: ‘Prepare pwovizyon nou. Paske nan twa jou, nou va travèse Jourdain sila a, pou antre pran peyi ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ap bannou pou posede a.’”
for after the thridde dai ye schulen passe Jordan, and ye schulen entre to welde the lond, which youre Lord God schal yyue to you.
12 A Ribenit yo avèk Gadit yo ak mwatye tribi Manassé a, Josué te di:
Also he seide to men of Ruben, and `to men of Gad, and to the half lynage of Manasses, Haue ye mynde of the word which Moises,
13 “Sonje pawòl ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, te kòmande nou, lè l te di: ‘SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ap bannou repo, e Li va bannou peyi sa a.
the `seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide to you, and seide, Youre Lord God hath youe to you reste and al the lond;
14 “‘Madanm nou yo, pitit nou yo ak bèt nou yo va rete nan peyi ke Moïse te bannou lòtbò Jourdain an; men nou va travèse devan frè nou yo, prepare an lòd batay la, tout sòlda vanyan nou yo e ou va bay yo soutyen,
youre wyues and youre sones and beestis schulen dwelle in the lond which Moises yaf to you biyende Jordan; but passe ye armed, `alle strong in hond, bifor youre britheren; and fiyte ye for hem,
15 jiskaske SENYÈ a bay frè nou yo repo, tankou nou, epi yo menm tou, yo posede peyi ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ap bay yo a. Epi nan lè sa a, nou va retounen nan pwòp teren pa nou an, e posede sa ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, te bannou lòtbò Jourdain an, vè solèy leve a.’”
til the Lord yyue reste to youre britheren, as `he yaf also to you, and `til also thei welden the lond which youre Lord God schal yyue to hem; and so turne ye ayen in to the lond of youre possessioun, and ye schulen dwelle in that lond which Moises, `seruaunt of the Lord, yaf to you ouer Jordan, ayens the `rysyng of the sunne.
16 Yo te reponn Josué e te di: “Tout sa ke ou te kòmande nou, nou va fè l, epi nenpòt kote ke ou voye nou, nou va ale.
And thei answeriden to Josue, and seiden, We schulen do alle thingis whiche thou comaundidist to vs, and we schulen go, whidir euer thou sendist vs;
17 Jis jan ke nou te obeyi Moïse nan tout bagay la, konsa nou va obeyi ou. Sèlman ke SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, kapab avèk ou tankou Li te avèk Moïse la.
as we obeieden in alle thingis to Moises, so we schulen obeie also to thee; oneli thi Lord God be with thee, as he was with Moyses.
18 Nenpòt moun ki fè rebèl kont lòd ou, e ki pa obeyi pawòl ou yo nan tout sa ou kòmande li fè yo, li va vin mete a lanmò. Sèlman, kenbe fèm e pran kouraj.”
Die he that ayenseith thi mouth, and obeieth not to alle thi wordis, whiche thou comaundist to hym; oneli be thou coumfortid, and do thou manli.
