Numbers 13

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:

Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them.

-Ou pral chwazi douz nan chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo, yonn pou chak branch fanmi. Ou pral voye yo pou y' al wè ki jan peyi Kanaran an ye, peyi m'ap bay moun Izrayèl yo.

And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel.

Dapre lòd Moyiz te resevwa nan men Seyè a, li pran douz gason ki te chèf fanmi nan pèp Izrayèl la. Antan li te nan dezè Paran an, li voye yo al rekonèt peyi a.

And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur.

Men non yo: Pou branch Woubenn lan, se te Chamwa, pitit gason Zakou a.

Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori.

Pou branch fanmi Simeyon an, se te Chafa, pitit gason Ori a.

Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.

Pou branch fanmi Jida a, se te Kalèb, pitit gason Jefoune a.

Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.

Pou branch fanmi Isaka a, se te Jigal, pitit gason Jozèf la.

Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun.

Pou branch fanmi Efrayim lan, se te Oze, pitit gason Noun lan.

Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu.

Pou branch fanmi Benjamen an, se te Palti, pitit gason Rafou a.

Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi.

Pou branch fanmi Zabilon an, se te Gadiyèl, pitit gason Sodi a.

Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi.

Pou branch fanmi Jozèf la, nan branch Manase a, se te Gadi, pitit gason Souzi a.

Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli.

Pou branch fanmi Dann lan, se te Amiyèl, pitit gason Jemali a.

Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael.

Pou branch fanmi Asè a, se te Setou, pitit gason Mikayèl la.

Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi.

Pou branch fanmi Neftali a, se te Nakbi, pitit gason Wopsi a.

Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.

Pou branch fanmi Gad la, se te Geouyèl, pitit gason Maki a.

These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua.

Se te non douz mesye Moyiz te voye al rekonèt peyi Kanaran an. Moyiz te chanje non Oze, pitit gason Noun lan, li rele l' Jozye.

And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the mountain:

Lè Moyiz voye yo ale nan peyi Kanaran an, li di yo: -Moute nan peyi a. N'a pase pa Negèv la, n'a pran chemen mòn pou nou.

And see the land, what it is; and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many;

Ale gade peyi a. Chache konnen ki jan li ye, ki kalite moun ki rete ladan l', konbe yo ye, ak ki fòs yo.

And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;

Chache konnen si tè a se yon bon tè osinon yon move tè, si moun yo rete nan lavil ki gen ranpa pou pwoteje yo osinon nan kan anba tant twal.

And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the firstripe grapes.

Chache konnen si peyi a rich osinon pòv, si gen anpil pyebwa sou tè a ou si pa genyen. Nou pa bezwen pè anyen. Lè n'ap tounen, pote kèk nan fwi ki donnen laba a. Se te sezon rezen te konmanse ap mi.

So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath.

Se konsa mesye yo moute, y' al chache konnen tout bagay ki gen nan peyi a, depi dezè Zin ki nan sid peyi a rive jouk Reyòb toupre pas Amat la, nan nò.

And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

Yo travèse zòn Negèv la, yo rive lavil Ebwon kote moun Ayiman yo, moun Chechayi yo ak moun Talmayi yo rete. Yo tout te fè pati ras moun Anak yo. Ebwon sa a, se yon lavil ki te bati sètan anvan yo te bati lavil Zoan nan peyi Lejip.

And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs.

Yo rive nan ravin Echkòl, yo koupe yon branch rezen ki te gen yon sèl gwo grap rezen nan li. Yo mete l' sou yon gòl pou de moun te ka pote l' sou zepòl yo, si tèlman li te lou. Yo pote grenad ak fig frans tou.

The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence.

Yo rele kote sa a Ravin Echkòl, poutèt gwo grap rezen moun pèp Izrayèl yo te koupe la a.

And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.

Apre karant jou, lè yo fin vizite toupatou nan peyi a, yo tounen,

And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land.

yo vin jwenn Moyiz, Arawon ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo Kadès, nan dezè Paran an. Yo detaye ba yo tou sa yo te wè, yo moutre yo fwi yo te pote yo.

And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.

Yo di Moyiz konsa: -Nou vizite toupatou nan peyi ou te voye nou al chache konnen an. Se yon peyi ki rich anpil, kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo. Se vre wi. Gade fwi nou jwenn ladan l'.

Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there.

Men, moun ki rete nan peyi a gwonèg anpil. Lavil yo gran, yo byen pwoteje. Sa ki pi rèd nou wè yon kalite ras moun gwonèg bèl wotè.

The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan.

Moun Amalèk yo rete nan sid peyi a, nan zòn Negèv la. Moun It yo, moun Jebis yo ak moun Amon yo rete nan mòn yo. Moun Kanaran yo rete bò lanmè Mediterane a ak bò larivyè Jouden an.

And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.

Kalèb fè moun yo sispann bougonnen sou do Moyiz, li di yo konsa: -Ann moute koulye a. Ann al pran peyi a pou nou. Pa gen anyen la a nou pa ka fè!

But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.

Men mesye ki te moute ansanm ak Kalèb yo di konsa: -Non. Nou pa ka al atake moun sa yo. Yo pi fò pase nou.

And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.

Se konsa yo pran pale mal sou peyi yo te al vizite a devan pèp Izrayèl la. Yo t'ap di: -Peyi nou ta l' vizite a, peyi nou ta l' chache konnen an, se yon peyi ki pa menm bay kont manje pou moun k'ap viv sou li yo. Epi, tout moun nou wè la se moun ki wo anpil.

And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

Sa ki pi rèd, nou wè yon kalite gwonèg bèl wotè, moun ras Anak yo. Devan moun sa yo se krebete nou ye, tèlman nou piti. Se konsa nou te santi nou devan yo.
