< Jij 6 >

1 Epi fis Israël yo te fè sa ki mal nan zye SENYÈ a. Konsa, SENYÈ a te livre yo nan men a peyi Madian an pandan sèt ane.
Forsothe the sones of Israel diden yuel in the `siyt of the Lord, and he bitook hem in the hond of Madian seuene yeer.
2 Pouvwa Madian nan te domine kont Israël. Akoz Madian, fis Israël yo te fè pou yo menm kavo ki te nan mòn ak gwòt avèk sitadèl avèk wòch.
And thei weren oppressid of hem greetly; and `thei maden dichis, and dennes to hem silf in hillis, and strongeste places to fiyte ayen.
3 Paske se te lè Israël te fin simen ke Madyanit yo ta vin monte avèk Amalekit yo ak fis yo nan lès pou ale kont yo.
And whanne Israel hadde sowe, Madian stiede, and Amalech, and othere of the `naciouns of the eest;
4 Konsa, yo te fè kan kont yo, detwi tout pwodwi tè a jis rive Gaza, e pa t kite anyen pou manje an Israël, ni mouton, bèf, ni bourik.
and thei settiden tentis at the sones of Israel, and wastiden alle thingis `as tho weren in eerbis, ethir grene corn, `til to the entryng of Gaza, and outirli thei leften not in Israel ony thing perteynynge to lijf, not scheep, not oxun, not assis.
5 Paske, yo te monte vin parèt avèk tout bèt yo, ak tant yo. Yo te antre an fòs kantite tankou krikèt zèl volan. Kantite a yo menm avèk chamo pa yo te depase kontwòl. Yo te vin antre nan tè a pou devaste li.
For thei and alle her flockis camen with her tabernaclis, and at the licnesse of locustus thei filliden alle thingis, and a multitude of men and of camels was with out noumbre, and wastiden what euer thing thei touchiden.
6 Konsa, Israël te desann ba akoz Madian, e fis Israël yo te kriye fò anvè SENYÈ a.
And Israel was `maad low greetli in the siyt of Madian.
7 Koulye a, li vin rive ke lè fis Israël yo te kriye fò anvè SENYÈ a akoz Madian,
And Israel criede to the Lord, `and axyde help ayens Madianytis; and he sente to hem a man,
8 ke SENYÈ a te voye yon pwofèt bay fis Israël yo. Li te di yo: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye a Israël la ‘Se te Mwen menm ki te mennen nou monte soti an Egypte e te mennen nou sòti nan kay esklavaj la.
a profete, and he spak, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Y made you to stie fro Egipt, and Y ledde you out of the hows of seruage,
9 Mwen te delivre nou soti nan men a Ejipsyen yo, ak men a tout sila ki te oprime nou yo. Mwen te chase yo devan nou, e te bannou peyi pa yo.
and Y delyueride you fro the hond of Egipcians, and of alle enemyes that turmentiden you; and Y castide hem out at youre entryng, and Y yaf to you `the lond of hem;
10 Mwen te di nou: “Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Nou pa pou gen krent dye Amoreyen yo nan peyi kote nou rete a.” Men nou pa t koute vwa M.’”
and Y seide, Y am `youre Lord God; drede ye not the goddis of Ammorreis, in whose lond ye dwellen; and ye nolden here my vois.
11 Alò zanj SENYÈ a te vin chita anba bwadchenn ki te Ophra a, ki te pou Joas, Abiezerit la. Nan lè sa a, Gédéon, fis li a, t ap bat ble nan preswa diven an, pou sove li kont Madyanit yo.
Forsothe an aungel of the Lord cam, and sat undur an ook, that was in Effra, and perteynede to Joas, fadir of the meinee of Ezri. And whanne Gedeon, `his sone, threischide out, and purgide wheetis in a pressour,
12 Zanj SENYÈ a te parèt a li e te di li: “SENYÈ a avèk ou, O gèrye vanyan an”.
that he schulde fle Madian, an aungel of the Lord apperide to hym, and seide, The Lord be with thee, thou strongeste of men.
13 Epi Gédéon te di li: “O senyè mwen, si SENYÈ a avèk nou, poukisa tout bagay sa yo vin rive nou? Epi ki kote tout mirak Li yo ke zansèt nou yo te konn pale nou yo? Konsa li te di: ‘Èske SENYÈ a pa t mennen nou sòti an Egypte?’ Men koulye a, SENYÈ a gen tan abandone nou e livre nou nan men a Madian.”
And Gedeon seide to hym, My lord, Y biseche, if the Lord is with vs, whi therfor han alle these yuels take vs? Where ben the merueils of hym, whiche oure fadris telden, and seiden, The Lord ledde vs out of Egipt? `Now forsothe he hath forsake vs, and hath bitake vs in the hond of Madian.
14 SENYÈ a te gade li e te di: “Ale ak sa ki pwòp fòs ou, e delivre Israël nan men Madyanit yo. Èske se pa Mwen ki voye ou?”
And the Lord bihelde to hym, and seide, Go thou in this strengthe of thee, and thou schalt delyuere Israel fro the hond of Madian; wite thou, that Y sente thee.
15 Li te di Li: “O SENYÈ, kijan mwen kapab delivre Israël? Gade byen, fanmi mwen, se pi piti a nan Manassé e Mwen se pi piti a lakay papa m.”
Which Gedeon answeride, and seide, My lord, Y biseche, in what thing schal Y delyuere Israel? Lo! my meynee is the loweste in Manasses, and Y am the leeste in the hows of my fadir.
16 Men SENYÈ a te di li: “Anverite, Mwen va avèk ou e ou va genyen Madian tankou yon sèl gason.”
And the Lord seide to hym, Y schal be with thee, and thou schalt smyte Madian as o man.
17 Konsa Gédéon te di Li: “Si koulye a, mwen jwenn favè nan zye Ou; alò, montre mwen yon sign ke se Ou menm ki pale avè m.
And Gedeon seide, If Y haue foundun grace bifor thee, yyue to me a signe, that thou, that spekist to me, art sente of Goddis part;
18 Souple, pa kite isit la jiskaske mwen vin kote Ou pou pote ofrann mwen e mete l devan Ou.” Epi Li te reponn: “M ap rete jiskaske ou tounen.”
go thou not `awei fro hennus, til Y turne ayen to thee, and brynge sacrifice, and offre to thee. Whiche answeride, Y schal abide thi comyng.
19 Alò, Gédéon te antre anndan an. Li te prepare yon jèn ti kabrit avèk pen san ledven avèk yon efa farin. Li te mete vyann nan nan yon panyen ak sòs li nan yon kivèt. Li te pote yo deyò kote li a, anba bwadchenn nan e li te prezante yo.
And so Gedeon entride, and sethide a kide, and took therf looues of a buyschel of mell, and fleischis in a panyere; and he sente the broth of fleischis in a pot, and bar alle thingis vndur an ook, and offride to hym.
20 Zanj Bondye a te di li: “Pran vyann nan avèk pen san ledven an. Mete yo sou wòch sila e vide sòs la.” Epi konsa li te fè.
To whom the aungel of the Lord seide, Take thou the fleischis, and therf looues, and putte on that stoon, and schede the broth aboue. And whanne he hadde do so,
21 Konsa, zanj SENYÈ a te lonje pwent baton li, ki te nan men li pou te touche vyann nan avèk pen san ledven an, epi dife te vòltije sòti nan wòch la pou te konsome vyann nan nèt ansanm avèk pen san ledven an. Epi zanj SENYÈ a te disparèt devan zye li.
the aungel of the Lord helde forth the `ende of the yerde which he helde in the hond, and he touchide the fleischis, and the therf looues; and fier stiede fro the stoon, and wastide the fleischis, and therf looues. Forsothe the aungel of the Lord vanyschide fro hise iyen.
22 Lè Gédéon te wè ke se te zanj SENYÈ a, li te di: “Anmwey, O Senyè Bondye! Koulye a, mwen gen tan wè zanj SENYÈ a fasafas.”
And Gedeon siy that he was `an aungel of the Lord, and seide, Lord God, alas to me, for Y siy the aungel of the Lord face to face.
23 Senyè a te reponn li: “Lapè avèk ou, pa pè. Ou p ap mouri.”
And the Lord seide to hym, Pees be with thee; drede thou not, thou schalt not die.
24 Alò Gédéon te bati yon lotèl la pou SENYÈ a. Li te rele lotèl la “SENYÈ a se Lapè”. Jis rive jodi a, li toujou la nan Ophra a Abizerit yo.
Therfor Gedeon bildide there an auter to the Lord, and he clepide it the Pees of the Lord, `til in to present dai. And whanne he was yit in Effra, which is of the meynee of Ezri, the Lord seide to hym in that nyyt,
25 Alò, nan menm nwit lan, SENYÈ a te di li: “Pran towo papa ou avèk yon dezyèm towo a laj sèt ane. Konsa, rale desann lotèl Baal ki pou papa ou a e koupe poto Astarté ki akote li a.
Take thou `the bole of thy fadir, and anothir bole of seuene yeer, and thou schalt distrie the auter of Baal, which is thi fadris, and kitte thou doun the wode, which is aboute the auter;
26 Epi bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a, Bondye ou an, sou tèt fotrès sila nan yon jan ki an lòd. Epi pran yon lòt towo e ofri li avèk bwa ki te nan poto Astarat ke ou va koupe mete atè a.”
and thou schalt bilde an auter to thi Lord God in the hiynesse of this stoon, on which thou puttidist sacrifice bifore; and thou schalt take the secounde bole, and thou schalt offre brent sacrifice on the heep of trees, whiche thou kittidist doun of the wode.
27 Alò, Gédéon te pran dis mesye nan sèvitè li yo, e li te fè jan SENYÈ a te pale li a. Epi akoz li te pè lakay papa li ak mesye lavil yo, li pa t fè l nan lajounen, men pandan lannwit.
Therfore Gedeon took ten men of hise seruauntis, and dide as the Lord comaundide to hym. Sotheli Gedeon dredde the hows of his fadir, and the men of that citee, and nolde do bi dai, but fillide alle thingis bi nyyt.
28 Lè mesye lavil yo te leve granmmaten, vwala, lotèl Baal la te kase, epi poto Astarté ki te akote li a te koupe, e dezyèm towo te gen tan ofri sou lotèl la ki te fin bati.
And whanne men of that citee hadde rise eerly, thei sien the auter of Baal distried, and the wode kit doun, and the tothir bole put on the auter, that was bildid thanne.
29 Yo te di a youn lòt: “Se kilès ki te fè bagay sa a?” Lè yo fè ankèt pou mande, yo te di: “Gédéon, fis a Joas la te fè bagay sa a.”
And thei seiden togidere, Who hath do this? And whanne thei enqueriden the doer of the deed, it was seid, Gedeon, the sone of Joas, dide alle these thingis.
30 Alò, mesye lavil yo te di a Joas: “Mennen fis ou a sòti pou l mouri, paske li te chire lotèl Baal la e anverite, li gen tan koupe mete atè poto Astarté ki te akote li a.”
And thei seiden to Joas, Brynge forth thi sone hidur, that he die, for he distriede the auter of Baal, and kittide doun the wode.
31 Men Joas te di a tout moun ki te kanpe kont li yo: “Èske nou va plede kòz a Baal yo oswa èske se nou ki pou delivre li? Sila ki plede kòz li a, va mete a lanmò avan maten. Si se yon dye ke li ye, kite li plede pou pwòp tèt li, pou kòz a moun nan ki te chire lotèl li.”
To whiche he answeride, Whether ye ben the venieris of Baal, that ye fiyte for hym? he that is aduersarie of hym, die, bifor that the `liyt of the morew dai come; if he is God, venge he hym silf of hym that castide doun his auter.
32 Pou sa, nan jou sa a, li te bay a Gédéon non Jerubbaal, ki vle di, “Kite Baal plede pou kont li”, akoz li te chire lotèl li.”
Fro that dai Gedeon was clepid Gerobaal, for Joas hadde seid, Baal take veniaunce of hym that castide doun his auter.
33 Epi tout Madyanit avèk Amalekit yo avèk fis a lès yo te rasanble yo menm. Yo te janbe pou te fè kan an nan vale Jizréel la.
Therfor al Madian, and Amalech, and the puplis of the eest weren gadirid to gidere, and passiden Jordan, and settiden tentis in the valey of Jezrael.
34 Konsa, Lespri SENYÈ a te vin sou Gédéon, epi li te soufle twonpèt la, epi Abizerit yo te rele ansanm pou swiv li.
Forsothe the spirit of the Lord clothide Gedeon; `and he sownede with a clarioun, and clepide to gidere the hows of Abiezer, that it schulde sue hym.
35 Li te voye mesaje yo toupatou nan Manassé e yo tout te rasanble ansanm pou swiv li. Konsa, li te voye mesaje a Aser, Zabulon ak Nephtali pou yo te vin monte, rankontre ak yo.
And he sente messangeris in to al Manasses, and he suede Gedeon; and he sente othere messangeris in to Aser, and Zabulon, and Neptalym, whiche camen to hym.
36 Gédéon te di a Bondye: “Si Ou va delivre Israël pa men mwen, jan Ou te pale a,
And Gedeon seide to the Lord, If thou makist saaf Israel bi myn hond, as thou hast spoke,
37 gade byen, mwen va mete yon touf len sou glasi a; si gen lawouze sèl sou touf la, e li sèch sou tout tè a, alò, mwen va konnen ke Ou va delivre Israël pa men mwen, jan Ou te pale a.”
Y schal putte this flees of wolle in the corn floor; if dew is in the flees aloone, and drynesse is in al the erthe, Y schal wite, that thou schalt delyuere Israel bi myn hond, as thou hast spoke.
38 Epi se konsa sa te ye. Lè li leve granmaten e te peze touf la, li peze fè sòti nan touf la yon bòl plen dlo.
And it was don so. And he roos bi nyyt, and whanne the flees was wrongun out, he fillide a pot with deew;
39 Alò, Gédéon te di a Bondye: “Pa kite kòlè ou brile kont mwen pou m kab pale yon fwa ankò. Souple, kite mwen fè yon tès yon fwa ankò avèk touf la. Kite sa fèt, koulye a, ke se sèl touf la ki sèch e kite l gen lawouze sou tout tè a.”
and he seide eft to the Lord, Thi strong veniaunce be not wrooth ayens me, if Y asaie, `that is, axe a signe, yit onys, and seke a signe in the flees; Y preye, that the flees aloone be drie, and al the erthe be moist with deew.
40 Bondye te fè sa nan nwit lan; paske li te seche sèl touf la e lawouze te sou tout tè a.
And the Lord dide in that nyyt, as Gedeon axide; and drynesse was in the flees aloone, and deew was in al the erthe.
