Resansman 21
1 Lè Chèf Canaran an, wa Arad la, ki te viv nan Negev la te tande ke Israël t ap vini pa chemen a Atharim nan; alò, li te goumen kont Israël, e li te pran kèk nan yo an kaptif.
When the Canaanite king of Arad who lived in the Negev heard that Israel came by the way of Atharim, then he fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
2 Konsa, Israël te fè yon ve a SENYÈ a, e te di: “Si Ou va vrèman livre pèp sa a nan men m; alò, mwen va detwi vil pa yo a nèt.”
Israel vowed a vow to YHWH, and said, "If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities."
3 SENYÈ a te tande vwa Israël. Li te livre yo bay Canaran, epi yo te detwi yo nèt ansanm avèk vil yo. Konsa, kote sa a te vin releHorma.
YHWH listened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities: and the name of the place was called Hormah.
4 Yo te sòti nan Mòn Hor pa wout Lamè Wouj la, pou travèse peyi Édom an. Epi pèp la te vin pèdi pasyans akoz vwayaj la.
They traveled from Mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
5 Pèp la te pale kont Bondye ak Moïse: “Poukisa ou te mennen nou sòti an Égypte pou mouri nan dezè a? Paske nanpwen manje, ni dlo, e nou rayi move manje sila a.”
The people spoke against God, and against Moses, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loathes this light bread."
6 SENYÈ a te voye sèpan dife pami pèp la. Yo te mòde pèp la, e anpil nan pèp Israël la te mouri.
YHWH sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many people of Israel died.
7 Konsa, pèp la te vini a Moïse e te di: “Nou te peche, pwiske nou te pale kont SENYÈ a ak ou menm. Entèsede pou nou avèk SENYÈ a, pou Li kapab retire sèpan sa yo sou nou.” Epi Moïse te entèsede pou pèp la.
The people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, because we have spoken against YHWH, and against you. Pray to YHWH, that he take away the serpents from us." Moses prayed for the people.
8 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Fè yon sèpan dife e mete li sou yon poto. Konsa, li va vin rive ke tout moun ki mòde, lè li gade li, l ap viv.”
YHWH said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a standard: and it shall happen, that everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live."
9 Moïse te fè yon sèpan an bwonz e li te mete li sou poto a. Epi li te vin rive ke si yon sèpan te mòde nenpòt moun, lè li te gade vè sèpan an bwonz lan, li te viv.
Moses made a serpent of bronze, and set it on the standard: and it happened, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked to the serpent of bronze, he lived.
10 Alò, fis Israël yo te deplase e te fè kan an nan Oboth.
The children of Israel traveled, and camped in Oboth.
11 Yo te vwayaje soti Oboth pou te fè kan an nan Ijje-Abarim, nan dezè ki anfas Moab a lès la.
They traveled from Oboth, and camped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrise.
12 Soti la, yo te pati pou te fè kan an nan vale Zéred la.
From there they traveled, and camped in the Valley of Zered.
13 Soti la, yo te vwayaje pou te fè kan an sou lòt kote Arnon an, ki se nan dezè ki sòti nan lizyè Amoreyen yo, paske Arnon se te fwontyè Moab, antre Moab ak Amoreyen yo.
From there they traveled, and camped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that comes out of the border of the Amorites: for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
14 Konsa, sa di nan Liv Lagè SENYÈ a: “Vaheb nan Supha, avèk ravin sèch nan Arnon an,
Therefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of YHWH, "Waheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
15 ak pant ki rive nan ravin sèch yo ki rive jis nan kote Ar la e ki touche nan lizyè Moab la.”
the slope of the valleys that incline toward the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab."
16 Soti la, yo rive jis nan Beer, ki se pwi kote SENYÈ a te di Moïse, reyini pèp la pou Mwen kapab bay yo dlo a.”
From there they traveled to Beer: that is the well of which YHWH said to Moses, "Gather the people together, and I will give them water."
17 Epi Israël te chante chan sila a: “Vin bwote o pwi! Chante a li!
Then sang Israel this song: "Spring up, well; sing to it:
18 Pwi a ke prens yo nan pèp la te fouye, Avèk baton wayal ak Baton soutyen pa yo.” Epi soti nan dezè a, yo te kontinye a Matthana,
the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter, and with their staffs." From the wilderness they traveled to Mattanah;
19 soti Matthana a Nahaliel, soti nan Nahaliel a Bamoth,
and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
20 soti Bamoth nan vale ki nan peyi Moab la, nan pwent lan vè Mòn Pisga ki kanpe anwo tout dezè a.
and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.
21 Alò Israël te voye mesaje yo bay Sihon, wa a Amoreyen yo. Li te di:
Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
22 “Kite mwen pase nan peyi ou a. Nou p ap menm vire nan chan, oswa nan rezen yo. Nou p ap bwè dlo nan pwi yo. Nou va ale nan chemen Wa a jiskaske nou fin depase limit fwontyè pa w la.”
"Let me pass through your land: we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the king's highway, until we have passed your border."
23 Men Sihon pa t kite Israël pase nan fwontyè pa li a. Konsa, Sihon te ranmase tout pèp li a pou te sòti kont Israël nan dezè a. Yo te rive a Jahats pou te goumen kont Israël.
Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz; and he fought against Israel.
24 Konsa, Israël te frape li avèk tranch nepe, e te pran posesyon peyi li a soti Arnon pou jis rive Jabbok, soti distans a fis Ammon yo; paske nan fwontyè a fis Ammon yo, se te Jazer.
Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the people of Ammon; for the border of the people of Ammon was strong.
25 Israël te pran tout vil yo e Israël te viv nan tout vil Amoreyen yo, nan Hesbon ak nan tout vil li yo.
Israel took all these cities: and Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its towns.
26 Paske Hesbon, se te vil a Sihon, wa a Amoreyen yo, ki te goumen kont ansyen wa Moab la, e li te retire tout peyi li a nan men li, jis rive nan Arnon.
For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon.
27 Se pou sa ke sila ki sèvi ak pwovèb yo di: “Vini Hesbon! Kite li bati! Konsa kite vil a Sihon an fin etabli.
Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, "Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
28 Paske yon dife te sòti nan Hesbon, Yon flanm soti nan vil a Sihon; Li te devore Ar nan Moab, Pwent wo yo domine Arnon
for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, swallowed up the high places of the Arnon.
29 Malè a nou menm, O Moab! Nou gen tan fin gate nèt, O pèp Kemosch la! Li te bay fis li yo kòm sila k ap sove ale, Epi fi li yo kòm kaptif, pou yon wa Amoreyen, Sihon.
Woe to you, Moab. You are undone, people of Chemosh. He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites.
30 Nou te tire sou yo. Hesbon fin gate jis rive Dibon. Konsa, nou te fin piyaje jis rive Nophach, Ki rive nèt nan Médaba.”
And we shot at them. Heshbon has perished as far as Dibon. And we have laid waste as far as Nophah, which reaches to Medeba."
31 Pou sa a, Israël te viv nan peyi Amoreyen yo.
Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
32 Moïse te voye espyone Jaezer. Yo te kaptire vil li yo e te piyaje Amoreyen ki te la yo.
Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took its towns, and drove out the Amorites who were there.
33 Epi yo te vire monte nan wout Basan, e Og, wa Basan an, te sòti avèk tout pèp li a pou fè bati Édréï.
They turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
34 Men SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Pa pè li, paske Mwen te bay li nan men nou, tout pèp li a ak tout peyi li a. Ou va fè avèk li jan ou te fè Sihon, wa Amoreyen, ki te viv Hesbon yo.”
YHWH said to Moses, "Do not fear him: for I have delivered him into your hand, and all his people, and his land; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon."
35 Konsa, yo te touye li avèk fis li yo ak tout pèp li a, jis pa t menm gen yon retay ki te rete de li. Konsa, yo te posede peyi li a.
So they struck him, and his sons and all his people, until there was none left him remaining: and they possessed his land.
