Deteronòm 4
Bib La · Kreyòl Ayisyen
1 Apre sa, Moyiz di pèp la: -Koulye a, nou menm pèp Izrayèl, se pou nou kenbe tout lòd ak tout prensip mwen te moutre nou yo. Se pou nou mache dapre lòd sa yo pou nou ka viv, pou nou ka antre nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, ap ban nou an. 2 Piga nou mete, piga nou wete anyen sou sa mwen mande nou fè a. Se pou nou kenbe tout kòmandman Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan mwen te moutre nou yo a. 3 Nou menm, nou te wè sa Seyè a te fè bò mòn Peyò a, lè li te touye tout moun nan mitan nou ki te al fè sèvis pou Baal sou mòn lan. 4 Men, nou menm ki pa t' lage pye Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nou tout la byen vivan toujou. 5 Gade! Mwen te moutre nou tout lòd ak tout regleman, jan Seyè a, Bondye mwen an, te mande m' fè l' la, pou nou te ka viv dapre lòd sa yo nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou an. 6 Se pou nou kenbe yo, se pou nou fè tou sa yo mande nou fè ladan yo. Paske, se konsa n'a fè lòt nasyon yo wè jan nou gen konprann, jan nou gen lespri. Lè y'a rive tande pale tout lòd sa yo, y'a di: Ala yon gwo pèp, papa! Pèp sa a gen tan gen konprann, yo gen tan gen lespri! 7 Paske pa gen lòt nasyon, li te mèt gran kou l' gran, ki gen yon Bondye toupre yo, yon Bondye k'ap kanpe la avèk yo, tankou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, fè l' pou nou chak fwa nou rele l'. 8 Pa gen lòt nasyon, li te mèt gran kou l' gran, ki gen bon lòd ak bon prensip pou regle tout bagay san patipri tankou lalwa mwen mete devan nou jòdi a. 9 Tansèlman, veye kò nou! Atansyon pou nou pa janm bliye bagay nou te wè ak pwòp je nou, pou nou pa janm wete yo nan lide nou pandan tout lavi nou. Okontrè, se pou nou moutre pitit nou ak pitit pitit nou yo tout bagay sa yo. 10 Pa bliye jou nou te kanpe sou mòn Orèb la, devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Lè sa a, li te di mwen: Sanble tout pèp la pou m' ka fè yo tande pawòl mwen gen pou m' di yo, pou yo aprann respekte m' pandan tout lavi yo sou latè, lèfini pou yo moutre pitit yo fè menm bagay la tou. 11 N'a di yo ki jan nou te pwoche bò pye mòn lan. Lè sa a, gwo flanm dife t'ap soti sou mòn lan, yo t'ap moute byen wo nan syèl la. 12 Seyè a rete nan mitan dife a li pale ak nou. Se bri bouch li ase nou te tande ap pale. 13 Seyè a te fè nou konnen kontra li te pase ak nou an. Li mande nou pou nou kenbe l'. Li te ekri dis kòmandman yo sou de wòch plat yo, li mande pou nou swiv yo. 14 Lè sa a, Seyè a pase m' lòd pou m' moutre nou tout lwa ak tout prensip nou gen pou nou swiv nan peyi kote nou pral antre a, peyi nou pral pran pou nou an. 15 Veye kò nou, tande! Se pou byen nou wi! Lè Seyè a te pale ak nou nan mitan dife a, sou mòn Orèb la, nou pa t' wè anyen ki ta sanble ak yon bagay. 16 Piga nou fè sa nou pa dwe fè. Piga n' al fè ankenn zidòl pou nou adore, kit li gen fòm gason, osinon fòm fanm, 17 kit li gen fòm zannimo oswa fòm zwazo, 18 kit li gen fòm bèt k'ap trennen sou vant yo osinon fòm pwason. 19 Konsa tou, lè nou leve je nou nan syèl la, nou wè solèy la, lalin lan, zetwal yo ak tout lòt bagay ki anwo nan syèl la. Pa kite yo vire tèt nou pou nou fè sèvis pou yo. Pa al mete ajenou devan yo. Bondye mete yo la pou sèvis tout moun ki sou latè. 20 Kanta nou menm, Seyè a te pran nou, li fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip ki te pou nou tankou yon gwo fou dife kote yo fonn fè, epi li fè nou tounen sa nou ye koulye a: yon pèp ki rele l' pa l'. 21 Men, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te fache sou mwen poutèt nou. Li fè sèman li p'ap kite m' janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, ni li p'ap kite m' mete pwent pye m' nan bon peyi li menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap fè nou kado a. 22 Se konsa, mwen menm, m'ap mouri bò isit la, mwen p'ap janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an. Men, nou menm, n'ap janbe lòt bò larivyè a, nou pral pran bon peyi sa a pou nou. 23 Veye kò nou pou nou pa janm bliye kontra Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te pase ak nou an. Piga nou janm fè ankenn zidòl, ankenn pòtre bagay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te defann nou fè. 24 Paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se yon Bondye ki fè jalouzi anpil, li tankou yon dife k'ap boule tout bagay kote l' pase. 25 Lè n'a gen pitit ak pitit pitit, lè n'a fin vye granmoun nan peyi a, piga nou fè sa nou pa t' dwe fè. Piga nou fè estati osinon pòtre ankenn bagay pou nou fè sèvis pou yo. Piga nou fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou nou fè l' fache. 26 Si nou fè bagay konsa, men m'ap pran syèl la ak latè a pou temwen pou yo tande sa m'ap di nou jòdi a: N'ap rete konsa, n'ap disparèt nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou lòt bò larivyè Jouden an. Nou p'ap rete lontan nan peyi a, paske nou tout pral disparèt nèt. 27 Seyè a pral gaye nou toupatou nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Se yon ti ponyen moun ase nan nou ki p'ap mouri nan peyi kote Seyè a pral mennen nou an. 28 Lè n'a rive nan peyi sa yo, nou pral fè sèvis pou bondye moun fè ak men yo, pou zidòl fèt an bwa, osinon an wòch, zidòl ki pa ka wè, ki pa ka tande, ki pa ka manje, ki pa ka pran sant anyen. 29 Men, lè sa a, n'a pran chache Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Si nou chache l' ak tout kè nou, n'a jwenn li. 30 Men, lè n'a gen kè sere, lè tout bagay sa yo va rive nou vre, bout pou bout yon jou n'a tounen nan pye Seyè a, Bondye nou an. N'a koute tou sa l' t'ap di nou an. 31 Paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, se yon Bondye ki gen bon kè, li p'ap lage nou, ni li p'ap detwi nou. Li p'ap janm bliye kontra li menm li te pase ak zansèt nou yo, kontra li te fè sèman l'ap toujou kenbe a. 32 Chache konnen sa ki te pase nan tan lontan, nan tan ki te la anvan nou te fèt, depi lè Bondye te mete moun sou latè. Ale toupatou sou latè, mande si yon gwo bagay konsa te janm rive. Eske yo janm tande yon gwo koze tankou koze sa a? 33 Eske janm gen yon pèp ki te tande Bondye rete nan mitan dife pou pale ak yo, jan nou menm nou te tande l' la, epi ki pa mouri apre sa? 34 Eske te janm gen yon bondye ki te penmèt li al chache yon pèp nan mitan yon lòt pèp pou fè li tounen pèp pa li, yon bondye ki te janm fè tout mirak ak tout bèl bagay sa yo, yon bondye ki te janm goumen tout goumen sa yo ak fòs ponyèt li, ak gwo kouraj li epi ki te fè anpil bagay pou fè moun tranble jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te fè l' pou nou devan je nou nan peyi Lejip la? 35 Se nou menm sèl Seyè a te fè wè tou sa pou nou te ka konnen se Seyè a ki sèl Bondye tout bon an, pa gen lòt ankò. 36 Li rete nan syèl la, li fè nou tande vwa l' pou l' te ka moutre nou anpil bagay. Sou latè menm, li fè nou wè yon gwo dife, epi li rete nan mitan dife a, li pale ak nou. 37 Li te renmen zansèt nou yo, li te chwazi pitit pitit yo apre yo, kifè li te fè yo santi li la ak yo, li fè yo wè gwo pouvwa li, li fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip. 38 Lèfini, li fè yon bann nasyon ki pi gran, ki pi fò pase nou kouri mete deyò pou fè plas ban nou. Li fè nou antre nan peyi yo. Li ban nou yo pou yo rele nou pa nou, jan sa ye jouk jòdi a. 39 Bon. Koulye a, konprann sa byen. Pa janm bliye se Seyè a ki Bondye anwo nan syèl la ak isit la sou latè. Wi, se li menm, pa gen lòt. 40 Se pou nou swiv tout lòd ak tout kòmandman mwen ban nou jòdi a. Konsa, ni nou menm, ni tout pitit nou yo apre nou, n'a viv lontan ak kè kontan nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou pou rele nou pa nou pou tout tan. 41 Apre sa, Moyiz chwazi twa lavil lòt bò larivyè Jouden, sou bò solèy leve, 42 lavil kote moun gen dwa kouri al kache si li ta touye yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy li san li pa fè espre, san li pa janm gen anyen avè l'. Li gen dwa al kache kò l' nan yonn nan lavil sa yo pou yo pa touye l'. 43 Pou moun branch fanmi Woubenn yo, se te lavil Bezè nan dezè ki anwo sou platon an. Pou moun branch fanmi Gad yo, se te lavil Ramòt nan zòn Galarad la. Pou moun fanmi Manase yo, se te lavil Golan nan peyi Bazan. 44 Men lalwa Moyiz te mete devan moun pèp Izrayèl yo. 45 Men kòmandman, lòd ak prensip Moyiz te ba yo apre yo te fin soti kite peyi Lejip. 46 Lè sa a, yo te deja rive lòt bò larivyè Jouden, sou bò solèy leve, nan fon ki anfas Bètpeyò a, nan peyi wa Siyon an. Siyon sa a te wa peyi Amori a, li te rete lavil Esbon. Men, Moyiz ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo te bat li apre yo te fin soti kite peyi Lejip la. 47 Yo pran peyi a nan men l'. Yo fè menm bagay la tou nan peyi Bazan, kote wa Og t'ap gouvènen an. De wa peyi Amori sa yo t'ap viv lòt bò larivyè Jouden, sou bò solèy leve. 48 Peyi yo te pran an te konmanse depi lavil Awoyè ki sou tèt falèz toupre larivyè Anon an, li rive jouk mòn Siryon. Yo rele mòn sa a mòn Emon tou. 49 Yo te pran tou tout zòn Araba a, ki sou bò solèy leve larivyè Jouden an, rive lanmè Mouri a nan pye mòn Pisga.

Deteronòm 4:1
De 4:1-13. An Exhortation to Obedience.
1. hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you--By statutes were meant all ordinances respecting religion and the rites of divine worship; and by judgments, all enactments relative to civil matters. The two embraced the whole law of God.
Deteronòm 4:2
2. Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you--by the introduction of any heathen superstition or forms of worship different from those which I have appointed (De 12:32; Nu 15:39; Mt 15:9).
neither shall ye diminish aught from it--by the neglect or omission of any of the observances, however trivial or irksome, which I have prescribed. The character and provisions of the ancient dispensation were adapted with divine wisdom to the instruction of that infant state of the church. But it was only a temporary economy; and although God here authorizes Moses to command that all its institutions should be honored with unfailing observance, this did not prevent Him from commissioning other prophets to alter or abrogate them when the end of that dispensation was attained.
Deteronòm 4:3-4
3-4. Your eyes have seen what the Lord did because of Baal-peor ... the Lord thy God hath destroyed them from among you--It appears that the pestilence and the sword of justice overtook only the guilty in that affair (Nu 25:1-9) while the rest of the people were spared. The allusion to that recent and appalling judgment was seasonably made as a powerful dissuasive against idolatry, and the fact mentioned was calculated to make a deep impression on people who knew and felt the truth of it.
Deteronòm 4:5-6
5-6. this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes--Moses predicted that the faithful observance of the laws given them would raise their national character for intelligence and wisdom. In point of fact it did do so; for although the heathen world generally ridiculed the Hebrews for what they considered a foolish and absurd exclusiveness, some of the most eminent philosophers expressed the highest admiration of the fundamental principle in the Jewish religion--the unity of God; and their legislators borrowed some laws from the constitution of the Hebrews.
Deteronòm 4:7-9
7-9. what nation is there so great--Here he represents their privileges and their duty in such significant and comprehensive terms, as were peculiarly calculated to arrest their attention and engage their interest. The former, their national advantages, are described (De 4:7, 8), and they were twofold: 1. God's readiness to hear and aid them at all times; and 2. the excellence of that religion in which they were instructed, set forth in the "statutes and judgments so righteous" which the law of Moses contained. Their duty corresponding to these pre-eminent advantages as a people, was also twofold: 1. their own faithful obedience to that law; and 2. their obligation to imbue the minds of the young and rising generation with similar sentiments of reverence and respect for it.
Deteronòm 4:10
10. the day that thou stoodest before the Lord ... in Horeb--The delivery of the law from Sinai was an era never to be forgotten in the history of Israel. Some of those whom Moses was addressing had been present, though very young; while the rest were federally represented by their parents, who in their name and for their interest entered into the national covenant.
Deteronòm 4:12
12. ye heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude--Although articulate sounds were heard emanating from the mount, no form or representation of the Divine Being who spoke was seen to indicate His nature or properties according to the notions of the heathen.
Deteronòm 4:15
De 4:14-40. A Particular Dissuasive against Idolatry.
15. Take ... good heed ... for ye saw no manner of similitude--The extreme proneness of the Israelites to idolatry, from their position in the midst of surrounding nations already abandoned to its seductions, accounts for their attention being repeatedly drawn to the fact that God did not appear on Sinai in any visible form; and an earnest caution, founded on that remarkable circumstance, is given to beware, not only of making representations of false gods, but also any fancied representation of the true God.
Deteronòm 4:16-19
16-19. Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image--The things are here specified of which God prohibited any image or representation to be made for the purposes of worship; and, from the variety of details entered into, an idea may be formed of the extensive prevalence of idolatry in that age. In whatever way idolatry originated, whether from an intention to worship the true God through those things which seemed to afford the strongest evidences of His power, or whether a divine principle was supposed to reside in the things themselves, there was scarcely an element or object of nature but was deified. This was particularly the case with the Canaanites and Egyptians, against whose superstitious practices the caution, no doubt, was chiefly directed. The former worshipped Baal and Astarte, the latter Osiris and Isis, under the figure of a male and a female. It was in Egypt that animal-worship most prevailed, for the natives of that country deified among beasts the ox, the heifer, the sheep, and the goat, the dog, the cat, and the ape; among birds, the ibis, the hawk, and the crane; among reptiles, the crocodile, the frog, and the beetle; among fishes, all the fish of the Nile; some of these, as Osiris and Isis, were worshipped over all Egypt, the others only in particular provinces. In addition they embraced the Zabian superstition, the adoration of the Egyptians, in common with that of many other people, extending to the whole starry host. The very circumstantial details here given of the Canaanitish and Egyptian idolatry were owing to the past and prospective familiarity of the Israelites with it in all these forms.
Deteronòm 4:20
20. But the Lord hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace--that is, furnace for smelting iron. A furnace of this kind is round, sometimes thirty feet deep, and requiring the highest intensity of heat. Such is the tremendous image chosen to represent the bondage and affliction of the Israelites [Rosenmuller].
to be unto him a people of inheritance--His peculiar possession from age to age; and therefore for you to abandon His worship for that of idols, especially the gross and debasing system of idolatry that prevails among the Egyptians, would be the greatest folly--the blackest ingratitude.
Deteronòm 4:26
Deteronòm 4:28
28. there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands--The compulsory measures of their tyrannical conquerors would force them into idolatry, so that their choice would become their punishment.
Deteronòm 4:30
30. in the latter days, if thou turn to the Lord thy God--either towards the destined close of their captivities, when they evinced a returning spirit of repentance and faith, or in the age of Messiah, which is commonly called "the latter days," and when the scattered tribes of Israel shall be converted to the Gospel of Christ. The occurrence of this auspicious event will be the most illustrious proof of the truth of the promise made in De 4:31.
Deteronòm 4:41-43
41-43. Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan--(See on Jos 20:7).
Deteronòm 4:44-49
44-49. this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel--This is a preface to the rehearsal of the law, which, with the addition of various explanatory circumstances, the following chapters contain.
