< 1 Chronicles 21 >
1 And Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.
Alò, Satan te kanpe kont Israël e te bourade David pou kontwole moun Israël yo.
2 And David said to Joab and to the princes of the people, Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan, and bring me word that I may know the sum of them.
Pou sa, David te di a Joab, e a chèf a pèp yo: “Ale konte moun Israël yo soti Beer-Schéba jis rive Dan, e pote ban m chif yo pou m kab konnen fòs kantite yo.”
3 And Joab said, Jehovah make his people a hundred times as many as they are. But, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? Why does my lord require this thing? Why will he be a cause of guilt to Israel?
Joab te di: “Ke SENYÈ a kapab ogmante sou pèp li a san fwa ke sa! Men mèt mwen, wa a, èske yo tout se pa sèvitè mèt mwen an? Poukisa mèt mwen an ap chache afè sa a? Poukisa sa ta dwe koz pou Israël ta vin koupab?”
4 Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Therefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
Malgre sa, pawòl wa a te vin genyen kont pawòl Joab yo. Konsa, Joab te sòti ale nan tout Israël pou te rive Jérusalem.
5 And Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people to David. And all those of Israel were a million and a hundred thousand men who drew a sword. And Judah was four hundred seventy thousand men who drew a sword.
Joab te bay nimewo a tout moun a David yo. Epi tout Israël, mesye ki te rale nepe yo, se te yon milyon-san-mil òm e Juda te kat-san-swasann-dis òm ki te rale nepe yo.
6 But he did not count Levi and Benjamin among them, for the king's word was abominable to Joab.
Men li pa t kontwole Lévi avèk Benjamin pami yo, paske kòmand wa a te twouve byen rayisab pou Joab.
7 And God was displeased with this thing, therefore he smote Israel.
“Bondye pa t kontan avèk bagay sa a e pou sa, li te frape Israël.
8 And David said to God, I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing. But now, put away, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy servant, for I have done very foolishly.
David te di a Bondye: Mwen te peche anpil, pwiske mwen te fè bagay sa a. Men souple, koulye a, retire inikite a sèvitè Ou a, paske mwen te fè yon bagay byen sòt.”
9 And Jehovah spoke to Gad, David's seer, saying,
SENYÈ a te pale ak Gad, konseye David la, epi te di l:
10 Go and speak to David, saying, Thus says Jehovah, I offer thee three things. Choose thee one of them, that I may do it to thee.
“Ale pale ak David. Di l: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, “M ap ofri ou twa bagay. Chwazi pou kont ou youn nan yo, ke mwen va fè pou ou.”’”
11 So Gad came to David, and said to him, Thus says Jehovah, Take which thou will:
Konsa, Gad te vin kote David. Li te di l: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ‘Pran pou ou menm
12 either three years of famine, or three months to be consumed before thy foes while the sword of thine enemies overtakes thee, or else three days the sword of Jehovah, even pestilence in the land, and the agent of Jehovah destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.
oswa, twazan gwo grangou, oswa twa mwa ke ou va chase kraze nèt pa lènmi ou, pandan nepe pa yo ap pran ou nèt, oswa gwo epidemi nan peyi a avèk zanj SENYÈ a k ap detwi toupatou nan tout teritwa Israël la.’ Pou sa, reflechi sou repons ke mwen va retounen bay a Sila ki te voye mwen an.”
13 And David said to Gad, I am in a great strait. Let me fall, I pray, into the hand of Jehovah, for his mercies are very great, and let me not fall into the hand of man.
David te di a Gad: “Mwen byen twouble. Souple, kite mwen tonbe nan men SENYÈ a, paske mizerikòd Li byen gran. Men pa kite mwen tonbe nan men a lòm.”
14 So Jehovah sent a pestilence upon Israel, and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te voye epidemi sou Israël. Swasann-di-mil nan mesye Israël yo te tonbe.
15 And God sent an agent to Jerusalem to destroy it. And as he was about to destroy, Jehovah beheld, and he relented of the evil, and said to the destroying agent, It is enough. Now halt thy hand. And the agent of Jehovah was standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Epi Bondye te voye yon zanj Jérusalem pou detwi vil la, men lè l te prè pou detwi, SENYÈ a te wè, e te lache de gwo dega a. Li te di a zanj ki t ap detwi a: “Sa kont. Alò, lache men ou.” Zanj SENYÈ a t ap kanpe akote glasi vannen ki pou Ornan an, Jebizyen an.
16 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the agent of Jehovah standing between earth and heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.
David te leve zye li, e te wè zanj SENYÈ a ki te kanpe antre syèl la avèk tè a, avèk nepe li rale nan men l, lonje sou Jérusalem. Konsa, David avèk ansyen yo te kouvri yo avèk twal sak e te tonbe sou figi yo.
17 And David said to God, Is it not I who commanded the people to be numbered? Even I it is who have sinned and done very badly. But these sheep, what have they done? Let thy hand, I pray thee, O Jehovah my God, be against me, and against my father's house, but not against thy people, that they should be plagued.
David te di a Bondye: “Èske se pa mwen menm ki te kòmande kontwòl a tout pèp la? Anverite, se te mwen ki te peche e ki te fè anpil mal. Men mouton sila yo, se kisa yo menm te fè? O SENYÈ, Bondye mwen an, souple, kite men Ou vin kont mwen avèk lakay zansèt mwen yo, men pa kont pèp Ou a, pou yo ta vin toumante.”
18 Then the agent of Jehovah commanded Gad to say to David that David should go up, and rear an altar to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Alò, zanj SENYÈ a te kòmande Gad pou pale David, pou David ta dwe monte pou bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a sou glasi vannen ki te pou Ornan an, Jebizyen an.
19 And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the name of Jehovah.
Konsa, David te monte selon pawòl ke Gad te pale nan non SENYÈ a.
20 And Ornan turned back, and saw the agent, and his four sons who were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
Alò, Ornan te vire fè bak, e li te wè zanj lan. Kat fis pa li yo ki te avè l yo te kache tèt yo. Alò, Ornan t ap bat ble.
21 And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
Lè David te vin kote Ornan, Ornan te gade. Li te wè David e te sòti nan glasi vannen an pou te pwostène li menm devan David avèk figi li atè.
22 Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place of this threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar to Jehovah. For the full price thou shall give it me, that the plague may be stopped from the people.
Alò, David te di a Ornan: “Ban mwen anplasman sila a avèk glasi vannen an, pou m kab bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a. Pou valè tout pri li, ou va ban mwen li, pou touman sila a kab vin frennen pami pèp la.”
23 And Ornan said to David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes. Lo, I give thee the oxen for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal offering. I give it all.
Ornan te di a David: “Pran li pou kont ou, epi kite mèt mwen an, wa a, fè sa ki bon nan zye l. Gade, mwen bay ou bèf yo pou ofrann brile a ak mas pilon, kon bwa ak ble kon ofrann sereyal la. M ap ba ou tout.”
24 And king David said to Ornan, No, but I will truly buy it for the full price. For I will not take that which is thine for Jehovah, nor offer a burnt offering without cost.
Men Wa David te di a Ornan: “Non, men anverite, mwen va achte li pou tout pri li. Paske mwen p ap pran sa ki pou ou pou SENYÈ a, ni ofri ofrann brile ki pa t koute mwen anyen.”
25 So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
Konsa David te bay Ornan sis-san sik an lò selon pwa li pou anplasman an.
26 And David built there an altar to Jehovah, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon Jehovah. And he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.
Alò, David te bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a la, e te ofri ofrann brile yo avèk ofrann lapè yo. Li te rele SENYÈ a, e Li te reponn li avèk dife soti nan syèl la sou lotèl ofrann brile a.
27 And Jehovah commanded the agent, and he put up his sword again into the sheath of it.
SENYÈ a te kòmande zanj lan e li te remèt nepe li nan fouwo.
28 At that time, when David saw that Jehovah had answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
Nan lè sa, lè David te wè ke SENYÈ a te reponn li sou glasi vannen Ornan an, Jebizyen an. Li te ofri yon sakrifis la.
29 For the tabernacle of Jehovah, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
Paske tabènak SENYÈ a, ke Moïse te fè nan dezè a ak lotèl ofrann brile a te nan wo plas Gabaon an nan lè sa a.
30 But David could not go before it to inquire of God, for he was afraid because of the sword of the agent of Jehovah.
Men David pa t kab ale devan li nan Gabaon pou fè demand Bondye, paske nepe zanj SENYÈ a te bay li gwo lakrent.
