Resansman 22
1 Fis a Israël yo te vwayaje pou te fè kan an nan plèn Moab yo, fin kite Jourdain an, anfas Jéricho.
And thei yeden forth, and settiden tentis in the feeldi places of Moab, where Jerico is set ouer Jordan.
2 Alò Balak, fis Tsippor te wè tout sa ke Israël te fè a Amoreyen yo.
Forsothe Balach, the sone of Sephor, siy alle thingis whiche Israel hadde do to Ammorrei,
3 Konsa, Moab te nan gran perèz akoz pèp la, pwiske yo te anpil; Moab te sezi avèk gwo laperèz akoz fis Israël yo.
and that men of Moab `hadden dred Israel, and miyten not bere the assailing of him.
4 Moab te di a ansyen yo a Madian: “Alò, bann moun sa yo va devore tout sa ki antoure nou, jan yon bèf devore zèb nan chan.” Balak, fis a Tsippor a te wa Moab nan tan sa a.
And he seide to the grettere men in birthe of Madian, So this puple schal do a wei alle men that dwellen in oure coostis, as an oxe is wont to do awei an eerbe `til to the rootis. Forsothe he, `that is, Balaac, was kyng in that tyme in Moab.
5 Konsa, li te voye yon mesaje vè Balaam, fis a Beor a nan Pethor, ki toupre Rivyè a, nan peyi a fis pèp li a. Li te di: “Gade byen, yon pèp te sòti an Égypte. Gade byen, yo kouvri sifas peyi a, e y ap viv anfas mwen.
Therfor he sente messangeris to Balaam, the sone of Beor, a fals diuynour, that dwellide on the flood of the lond of the sones of Amon, that thei schulden clepe hym, and schulden seie, Lo! a puple yede out of Egipt, `which puple hilide the face of erthe, and sittith ayens me.
6 Alò, pou sa, silvouplè, vin mete yon madichon sou pèp sa a pou mwen; paske, yo twò pwisan pou mwen. Petèt mwen kapab fin bat yo, e pouse yo ale deyò peyi a. Paske mwen konnen ke sila ke ou beni an, beni, e sila ke ou modi a, modi.”
Therfor come thou, and curse this puple, which is strongere than Y, if in ony maner Y may smyte and dryue hym out of my lond; for Y knowe, that he is blissid whom thou blissist, and he is cursid whom thou hast cursid.
7 Konsa, ansyen a Moab yo avèk ansyen a Madian yo te pati avèk frè pou peye divinasyon nan men yo. Yo te vin kote Balaam pou te repete pawòl a Balak yo pou li.
The eldere men of Moab and the grettere men in birthe of Madian yeden forth, hauynge in hondis the prijs of fals dyuynyng; and whanne thei hadden come to Balaam, and hadden teld to hym alle the wordis of Balaach, he answeride,
8 Li te di yo: “Pase nwit lan isit la, e mwen va pote yon pawòl bannou jan SENYÈ a kab petèt pale avè m.” Epi dirijan Moab yo te rete avèk Balaam.
Dwelle ye here to nyyt, and Y schal answere what euer thing the Lord schal seie to me. Sotheli while thei dwelliden at Balaam, God cam, and seide to hym,
9 Epi Bondye te vini a Balaam, e Li te di: “Ki moun sa yo ye ki avèk ou la a?”
What wolen these men at thee `to hem silf?
10 Balaam te di a Bondye: “Balak, fis a Tsippor a, wa Moab la te voye yon pawòl ban mwen.
Balaam answeride, Balaach, the sone of Sephor, kyng of Moabitis, sente to me, and seide, Lo!
11 ‘Gade byen, gen yon pèp ki sòti an Égypte, yo kouvri sifas peyi a. Alò, vin modi yo pou mwen. Petèt mwen kapab goumen kont yo, e pouse yo deyò.’”
a puple which is gon out of Egipt hilide the face of erthe; come thou, and curse hem, if in ony maner Y may fiyte, and dryue hym awey.
12 Bondye te di a Balaam: “Pa ale avèk yo. Ou p ap modi pèp la, paske yo beni.”
And God seide to Balaam, Nyle thou go with hem, nether curse thou the puple, for it is blessid.
13 Konsa, Balaam te leve nan maten e li te di a chèf Balak yo: “Ale retounen nan peyi nou, paske SENYÈ a refize kite mwen ale avèk nou.”
Which Balaam roos eerli, and seide to the princes, Go ye in to youre lond, for God forbeed me to come with you.
14 Chèf a Moab yo te leve. Yo te ale kote Balak e te di: “Balaam refize vini avèk nou.”
The princes turneden ayen, and seiden to Balaach, Balaam nolde come with vs.
15 Alò, Balak te voye chèf yo ankò, plis an kantite e pi gran pase lòt yo.
Eft Balaach sente many mo and noblere men, than he hadde sent bifore;
16 Yo te vini a Balaam e te di li: “Konsa pale Balak, fis a Tsippor a: ‘Pa kite anyen, mwen mande ou souple, anpeche ou vini kote mwen;
whiche seiden, whanne thei hadden come to Balaam, Balaach, the sone of Sephor, seith thus, Tarye thou not to come to me, redi to onoure thee;
17 paske vrèman, mwen va onore ou anpil. Mwen va fè nenpòt sa ou mande mwen. Alò, souple, vin modi pèp sa a pou mwen.’”
and what euer thing thou wolt, Y schal yyue to thee; come thou, and curse this puple.
18 Balaam te reponn a sèvitè a Balak yo, “Malgre Balak ta ban mwen kay li plen avèk ajan ak lò, mwen pa ta kapab fè anyen, ni piti ni gran, ki kontrè kòmand SENYÈ a, Bondye mwen an.
Balaam answeride, Thouy Balaach schal yyue to me his howsful of siluer and of gold, Y schal not mowe chaunge the word of my God, that Y speke ethir more ethir lesse.
19 Alò, silvouplè, rete isit la aswè a pou m ka twouve ki lòt bagay SENYÈ a va pale mwen.”
Y biseche, that ye dwelle here also in this nyyt, that Y may wite what the Lord schal answere eft to me.
20 Bondye te vin kote Balaam nan aswè. Li te di li: “Si mesye sa yo ta vin rele ou, leve ale avèk yo; men se sèlman pawòl ke M pale avèk ou a ke ou va fè.”
Therfor the Lord cam to Balaam in the nyyt, and seide to hym, If these men comen to clepe thee, rise thou, and go with hem, so oneli that thou do that that Y schal comaunde to thee.
21 Konsa, Balaam te leve nan maten. Li te mete yon sèl sou bourik li pou te ale avèk chèf Moab yo.
Balaam roos eerli, and whanne his femal asse was sadelid, he yede forth with hem.
22 Men Bondye te fache akoz li t ap ale a. Konsa, zanj SENYÈ a te vin kanpe nan chemen an kòm yon advèsè kont li. Alò, li te monte sou bourik li, e de sèvitè li yo te avèk li.
And God was wrooth. And the `aungel of the Lord stood in the weie ayens Balam, that sat on the femal asse, and hadde twei children with hym.
23 Lè bourik la te wè zanj SENYÈ a ki te kanpe nan chemen an avèk nepe li parèt nan men l, bourik la te kite chemen an pou te antre nan chan an. Men Balaam te frape bourik la pou fè l retounen nan chemen an.
The femal asse siy the aungel stondynge in the weie, with swerd drawun, and `turnede a wei hir silf fro the weie, and yede bi the feeld. And whanne Balaam beet hir, and wolde lede ayen to the path,
24 Alò, zanj SENYÈ a te kanpe nan yon wout etwat nan chan rezen yo, avèk yon miray sou yon bò, e yon miray sou lòt bò a.
the aungel stood in the streitnessis of twei wallis, with whiche the vyneris weren cumpassid.
25 Lè bourik la te wè zanj SENYÈ a, li te peze kò l kont mi an, e li te peze pye Balaam kont lòt mi an. Konsa, Balaam te frape li ankò.
And the femal asse siy the aungel, and ioynede hir silf to the wal, and hurtlide the foot of the sittere; and he beet eft `the asse.
26 Zanj SENYÈ a te ale pi lwen. Li te kanpe nan yon kote etwat kote pa t gen mwayen pou vire ni adwat, ni agoch.
And neuer the lesse the aungel yede to the streit place, where me `myyte not go out of the weie, nether to the riyt side nether to the left side, and stood ayens hym.
27 Lè bourik la te wè zanj SENYÈ a, li te kouche anba Balaam. Pou sa, Balaam te fache e li te frape bourik la avèk baton li.
And whanne the femal asse siy the aungel stondynge, sche felde doun vndir the feet of the sittere, which was wrooth ful greetli, and beet hir sidis with a staaf.
28 Konsa, SENYÈ a te ouvri bouch a femèl bourik la, e li te di a Balaam: “Kisa m te fè ou, pou ou bat mwen twa fwa sa yo?”
And the Lord openyde the `mouth of the femal asse, and sche spak, What have Y doon to thee? whi smytist thou me, lo! now the thridde tyme?
29 Alò, Balaam te di a bourik la: “Akoz ou te pase m nan rizib! Si m te gen yon nepe nan men m, Mwen ta gen tan touye ou deja.”
Balaam answeride, For thou hast disserued, and hast scornyd me; Y wolde that Y hadde a swerd to sle thee.
30 Bourik la te di Balaam: “Èske mwen pa bourik ou, sou sila ou te monte pandan tout vi ou jis rive Jodi a? Èske Mwen janm te konn abitye fè ou sa?” Epi li te reponn: “Non”.
And the femal asse seide, Whether Y am not thi beeste on which thou were wont to sitte euere til in to this present dai? seie thou, what lijk thing Y dide euere to thee? And he seide, Neuere.
31 Alò, SENYÈ a te ouvri zye a Balaam. Konsa, li te wè zanj a SENYÈ a ki te kanpe nan chemen an avèk nepe a rale nan men li. Balaam te bese jiska tè.
Anoon the Lord openyde `the iyen of Balaam, and he siy the aungel stondynge in the weie, holdynge a drawun swerd in the hoond; and Balaam worschipide hym lowli in to erthe.
32 Zanj SENYÈ a te di li: “Poukisa ou te frape bourik ou a twa fwa sa yo? Gade byen, Mwen te parèt kòm yon advèsè, akoz direksyon pa w la te kont Mwen.
To whom the aungel seide, Whi `betist thou thi femal asse `the thridde tyme? Y cam to be aduersarie to thee, for thi weie is weiward, and contrarye to me;
33 Men bourik la te wè M, e li te vire akote pou evite Mwen twa fwa sa yo. Si li pa t vire akote Mwen, Mwen ta, vrèman, gen tan touye ou nan moman sa a, e kite li menm viv.”
and if the femal asse hadde not bowid a wey fro the weie, and youe place to ayenstondere, Y hadde slayn thee, and sche schulde lyue.
34 Balaam te di a zanj SENYÈ a: “Mwen te peche, paske mwen pa t konnen ke ou te kanpe nan chemen an kont mwen. Alò, koulye a, si sa pa fè ou plezi, mwen va vire retounen.”
Balaam seide, Y synnede, not witynge that thou stodist ayens me; and now, if it displesith thee that Y go, Y schal turne ayen.
35 Men zanj SENYÈ a te di a Balaam: “Ale avèk mesye sa yo, men ou va pale, sèlman, pawòl ke Mwen di ou yo.” Konsa Balaam te ale avèk chèf Balak yo.
The aungel seide, Go thou with these men, but be war that thou speke not other thing than Y schal comaunde to thee. Therfor Balaam yede with the princes.
36 Lè Balak te tande ke Balaam t ap vini, li te sòti pou rankontre li nan vil Moab la, ki nan fwontyè Arnon an, nan dènye pwent lizyè a.
And whanne Balaach hadde herde this, he yede out in to the comyng of hym, in the citee of Moabitis, whiche is set in the laste coostis of Arnon.
37 Epi Balak te di a Balaam: “Èske mwen pa t voye kote ou an ijans? Poukisa ou pa t vin kote mwen? Èske, vrèman, mwen pa kapab onore ou?”
And he seide to Balaam, Y sente messangeris to clepe thee; whi camest thou not anoon to me? whethir for Y may not yelde meede to thi comyng?
38 Konsa, Balaam te di a Balak: “Gade byen, Mwen gen tan vini koulye a! Èske mwen kapab pale yon bagay menm? Pawòl ke Bondye mete nan bouch mwen an, se sa ke mwen va pale.”
To whom Balaam answeride, Lo! Y am present, whethir Y schal mow speke other thing than that, that God schal putte in my mouth?
39 Epi Balaam te sòti avèk Balak e yo te vini Kirjath-Hutsoth,
Therfor thei yeden forth to gidere, and camen in to a citee, which was in the laste coost of `his rewme.
40 Balak te fè sakrifis bèf avèk mouton, e li te voye kèk bay Balaam avèk chèf ki te avèk li yo.
And whanne Balaach hadde slayn scheep and oxun, he sente yiftis to Balaam and the princes that weren with hym.
41 Epi li te rive nan maten ke Balak te pran Balaam pou te mennen li monte nan wo plas a Baal yo. E li te wè depi la, yon pati nan pèp Israël yo.
Forsothe whanne the morewtid was maad, Balaach ledde Balaam to the hiye placis of Baal, and he bihelde the laste part of the puple, `that is, al the oost til to the laste part.
