< Resansman 32 >

1 Alò, fis Ruben yo avèk fis Gad yo te gen vrèman yon gran kantite bèt. Konsa, lè yo te wè teren nan Jaezer a ak peyi a Galaad la, ke li te vrèman yon kote ki bon pou bèt.
And the children of Ruben and the children of Gad had a multitude of cattle, very great; and they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Galaad; and the place was a place for cattle:
2 Fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo te vin pale avèk Moïse ak Éléazar, prèt la, avèk chèf kongregasyon an. Yo te di yo,
and the children of Ruben and the children of Gad came, and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,
3 “Atharoth, Dibon, Jaezer, Nimra, Hesbon Elealé, Sebam, Nebo ak Beon,
Ataroth, and Daebon, and Jazer, and Namra, and Esebon, and Eleale, and Sebama, and Nabau, and Baean,
4 peyi ke SENYÈ a te bat devan kongregasyon Israël yo, se yon peyi ki pou pran swen bèt, e sèvitè ou yo gen bèt.”
the land which the Lord has delivered up before the children of Israel, is pasture land, and your servants have cattle.
5 Yo te di: “Si nou twouve favè nan zye ou, kite peyi sa a vin bay a sèvitè ou yo kòm yon posesyon. Pa mennen nou lòtbò Jourdain an.”
And they said, If we have found grace in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession, and do not cause us to pass over Jordan.
6 Men Moïse te di a fis Gad yo e a fis Ruben yo: “Èske frè nou yo va ale nan lagè, pou nou menm rete chita isit la?
And Moses said to the sons of Gad and the sons of Ruben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall you sit here?
7 Koulye a, poukisa nou ap dekouraje fis Israël yo travèse lòtbò a pou antre nan peyi ke SENYÈ a te ba yo a?
And why do you pervert the minds of the children of Israel, that they should not cross over into the land, which the Lord gives them?
8 Se sa ke papa nou yo te fè lè mwen te voye yo sòti nan Kadès-Barnéa pou wè peyi a.
Did not your fathers thus, when I sent them from Cades Barne to spy out the land?
9 Paske, lè yo te monte nan vale Eschcol pou te wè peyi a, yo te dekouraje fis Israël yo jiskaske yo pa t antre nan peyi ke SENYÈ a te ba yo a.
And they went up to the valley of the cluster, and spied the land, and turned aside the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land, which the Lord gave them.
10 “Konsa, kòlè SENYÈ a te brile nan jou sa a, Li te sèmante, e te di:
And the Lord was very angry in that day, and sware, saying,
11 ‘Okenn nan mesye sa yo ki monte kite Égypte, ki gen laj plis ke ventan p ap wè peyi ke Mwen te sèmante a Abraham, Isaac, e a Jacob la; paske yo pa t swiv Mwen nèt,
Surely these men who came up out of Egypt from twenty years old and upward, who know good and evil, shall not see the land which I sware [to give] to Abraam and Isaac and Jacob, for they have not closely followed after me:
12 sof Caleb, fis a Jephunné a, Kenizyen an, ak Josué, fis a Nun nan, paske yo te swiv SENYÈ a nèt.’
save Caleb the son of Jephonne, who was set apart, and Joshua the son of Naue, for they closely followed after the Lord.
13 Konsa, chalè a SENYÈ a te brile kont Israël, e Li te fè yo vin egare nan dezè a pandan karantan, jiskaske tout jenerasyon sa a pami sila ki te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a yo, te vin detwi.
And the Lord was very angry with Israel; and for forty years he caused them to wander in the wilderness, until all the generation which did evil in the sight of the Lord was extinct.
14 “Koulye a, veye byen, nou te vin leve nan plas papa nou yo, yon nich moun plen peche, pou vin mete menm plis sou kòlè SENYÈ a kont Israël.
Behold, you are risen up in the room of your fathers, a combination of sinful men, to increase yet farther the fierce wrath of the Lord against Israel.
15 Paske si nou vire akote, e nou pa swiv Li, Li va, yon fwa, ankò abandone yo nan dezè a; epi nou va detwi tout pèp sa yo.”
For you will turn away from him to desert him yet once more in the wilderness, and you will sin against this whole congregation.
16 Alò, yo te vin pwoche li e te di: “Nou va bati isit la pak mouton pou bèt nou yo ak vil pou pitit nou yo;
And they came to him, and said, We will build here folds for our cattle, and cities for our possessions;
17 men nou, nou menm, nou va pran zam tou prepare pou ale devan fis Israël yo, jiskaske nou enstale yo nan plas yo. Pandan pitit nou yo ap viv nan vil fòtifye akoz sila k ap viv nan peyi yo.
and we will arm ourselves and go as an advanced guard before the children of Israel, until we shall have brought them into their place; and our possessions shall remain in walled cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
18 Nou p ap retounen lakay nou jiskaske chak moun nan fis Israël yo gen tan posede eritaj pa yo.
We will not return to our houses till the children of Israel shall have been distributed, each to his own inheritance.
19 Paske nou p ap gen yon eritaj avèk yo lòtbò Jourdain an, oswa pi lwen, paske eritaj pa nou an te tonbe bannou nan kote Jourdain a sila a, vè lès la.”
And we will not any longer inherit with them from the other side of Jordan and onwards, because we have our full inheritance on the side beyond Jordan eastward.
20 Konsa Moïse te di yo: “Si nou va fè sa, si nou va pran zam nou yo devan SENYÈ a pou fè lagè a,
And Moses said to them, If you will do according to these words, if you will arm yourselves before the Lord for battle,
21 epi nou tout mesye avèk zam yo travèse Jourdain a devan SENYÈ a jiskaske Li pouse lènmi Li yo soti devan Li,
and every one of you will pass over Jordan fully armed before the Lord, until his enemy be destroyed from before his face,
22 epi peyi a vin anba kontwòl devan SENYÈ a. Alò, apre nou va retounen, lib de angajman yo vè SENYÈ a, ak vè Israël. Konsa, peyi sila a va pou nou kòm yon posesyon devan SENYÈ a.
and the land shall be subdued before the Lord, then afterwards you shall return, and be guiltless before the Lord, and as regards Israel; and this land shall be to you for a possession before the Lord.
23 “Men si nou pa fè sa, veye byen, nou te peche kont SENYÈ a, e fòk nou konnen ke peche nou va vin jwenn nou.
But if you will not do so, you will sin against the Lord; and you shall know your sin, when afflictions shall come upon you.
24 Bati pou nou menm gran vil pou pitit nou yo, pak pou mouton nou yo, e fè sa ke nou te pwomèt yo.”
And you shall build for yourselves cities for your store, and folds for your cattle; and you shall do that which proceeds out of your mouth.
25 Fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo te pale avèk Moïse. Yo te di: “Sèvitè ou yo va fè ojis sa ke mèt mwen kòmande yo a.
And the sons of Ruben and the sons of Gad spoke to Moses, saying, Your servants will do as our lord commands.
26 Pitit nou yo, madanm nou yo, ak bèt nou yo va rete nan vil Galaad yo;
Our store, and our wives, and all our cattle shall be in the cities of Galaad.
27 pandan sèvitè ou yo, chak ki gen zam pou fè lagè, va travèse lòtbò nan prezans SENYÈ a pou batay la, jis jan ke mèt mwen pale.”
But your servants will go over all armed and set in order before the Lord to battle, as [our] lord says.
28 Konsa, Moïse te pase lòd konsènan yo a Éléazar, prèt la, a Josué, fis a Nun nan, e a chèf lakay papa zansèt yo, a tribi a fis Israël yo.
And Moses appointed to them [for judges] Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Naue, and the chiefs of the families of the tribes of Israel.
29 Moïse te di yo: “Si fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo, tout sila ki te pran zam pou batay yo, va travèse avèk nou lòtbò Jourdain an nan prezans SENYÈ a, e peyi a vin soumèt devan nou, alò nou va ba yo peyi a Galaad la kòm yon posesyon.
And Moses said to them, If the sons of Ruben and the sons of Gad will pass over Jordan with you, every one armed for war before the Lord, and you shall subdue the land before you, then you shall give to them the land of Galaad for a possession.
30 Men si yo refize travèse avèk nou avèk zam yo, yo va genyen posesyon yo pami nou nan peyi Canaran.”
But if they will not pass over armed with you to war before the Lord, then shall you cause to pass over their possessions and their wives and their cattle before you into the land of Chanaan, and they shall inherit with you in the land of Chanaan.
31 Fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo te reponn e te di: “Jan SENYÈ a te pale a sèvitè ou yo, konsa nou va fè.
And the sons of Ruben and the sons of Gad answered, saying, Whatsoever the Lord says to his servants, that will we do.
32 Nou menm, nou va travèse lòtbò avèk zam yo nan prezans SENYÈ a, nan peyi Canaran, e posesyon eritaj nou va rete avèk nou lòt kote Jourdain an.”
We will go over armed before the Lord into the land of Chanaan, and you shall give us our inheritance beyond Jordan.
33 Konsa, Moïse te bay yo, fis a Gad avèk fis a Ruben yo, mwatye tribi fis a Joseph la, Manassé, wayòm a Sihon, wa a Amoreyen yo, wayòm a Og la, wa a Basan an, peyi a avèk vil pa yo, teritwa pa yo, vil a teritwa ki te antoure yo.
And Moses gave to them, even to the sons of Gad and the sons of Ruben, and to the half tribe of Manasse of the sons of Joseph, the kingdom of Seon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Basan, the land and its cities with its coasts, the cities of the land round about.
34 Fis a Gad yo te bati Dibon avèk Ataroth ak Aroër,
And the sons of Gad built Daebon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
35 Atroth-Schophan, Jaezer, Jogbetha,
and Sophar, and Jazer, and they set them up,
36 Beth Nimra avèk Beth Haran, kòm vil byen fòtifye ak pak pou mouton.
and Namram, and Baetharan, strong cities, and folds for sheep.
37 Fis a Ruben yo te bati Hesbon, Elealé, avèk Kirjathaïm,
And the sons of Ruben built Esebon, and Eleale, and Kariatham,
38 Nebo avèk Baal-Meon——non ki te chanje yo—ak Sibma, e yo te bay lòt non a vil ke yo te bati yo.
and Beelmeon, surrounded [with walls], and Sebama; and they called the names of the cities which they built, after their own names.
39 Fis a Makir yo, fis a Manassé yo te ale Galaad pou te pran li, e yo te deplase Amoreyen ki te rete ladann yo.
And a son of Machir the son of Manasse went to Galaad, and took it, and destroyed the Amorite who lived in it.
40 Konsa, Moïse te bay Galaad a Makir, fis a Manassé a, e li te viv ladann.
And Moses gave Galaad to Machir the son of Manasse, and he lived there.
41 Jaïr, fis a Manassé a te ale pran vil li yo, e li te rele yo Havvoth-jaïr.
And Jair the [son] of Manasse went and took their villages, and called them the villages of Jair.
42 Nobach te ale pran Kenath avèk vil pa li yo, e li te rele li Nobach selon pwòp non pa li.
And Nabau went and took Caath and her villages, and called them Naboth after his name.
