< 1 Samuel 26 >

1 And the Ziphites came to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Does not David hide himself in the hill of Hachilah, which is before the desert?
Zifyen yo te vin kote Saül nan Guibea. Yo te di l: “Èske David pa kache nan ti mòn Hakila a, devan Jeschimon?”
2 Then Saul arose, and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.
Konsa, Saül te leve desann nan dezè Ziph la e te genyen avè l twa-mil òm Israël, byen chwazi pou chache David nan dezè Ziph la.
3 And Saul encamped in the hill of Hachilah, which is before the desert by the way. But David abode in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul came after him into the wilderness.
Saül te fè kan nan ti mòn Hakila a, ki devan Jeschimon, akote wout la, e David te rete nan dezè a, lè li te wè ke Saül te vini dèyè li nan dezè a.
4 David therefore sent out spies, and understood that Saul definitely came.
Konsa, David te voye espyon yo deyò, e li te konnen san dout ke Saül t ap vini.
5 And David arose, and came to the place where Saul had encamped. And David beheld the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the captain of his army. And Saul lay within the place of the wagons, and the people were encamped around about him.
Pou sa, David te leve pou vini nan plas kote Saül te fè kan an. Epi David te wè plas kote Saül te kouche avèk Abner, fis a Ner a, kòmandan lame li a. Saül te kouche nan mitan won kan an e pèp la te fè kan an antoure li.
6 Then David answered and said to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother to Joab, saying, Who will go down with me to Saul to the camp? And Abishai said, I will go down with thee.
Konsa, David te di a Achimélec, Etyen an ak Abischaï, fis a Tseruja a, frè a Joab, e li te di: “Se kilès k ap desann avè m kote Saül nan kan an?” Abischaï te di: “M ap desann avè w.”
7 So David and Abishai came to the people by night. And, behold, Saul lay sleeping within the place of the wagons with his spear stuck in the ground at his head, and Abner and the people lay round about him.
Konsa, David avèk Abischaï te pwoche kote pèp la nan lannwit. Epi vwala, Saül te kouche nan dòmi anndan won kan an avèk frenn li kole nan tè kote tèt li. Epi Abner avèk pèp la te kouche antoure li.
8 Then said Abishai to David, God has delivered up thine enemy into thy hand this day. Now therefore let me smite him, I pray thee, with the spear to the earth at one stroke, and I will not smite him the second time.
Alò, Abischaï te di a David: “Jodi a, Bondye gen tan livre lènmi ou an nan men ou. Pou sa, koulye a, kite mwen frape li avèk frenn nan rive jis atè ak yon sèl kou e mwen p ap frape li yon dezyèm fwa.”
9 And David said to Abishai, Destroy him not, for who can put forth his hand against Jehovah's anointed, and be guiltless?
Men David te di a Abischaï: “Pa detwi li, paske se kilès ki kab lonje men l kont onksyone a SENYÈ a e rete pa koupab?”
10 And David said, As Jehovah lives, Jehovah will smite him, or his day shall come to die, or he shall go down into battle and perish.
Anplis, David te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, asireman, SENYÈ a va frape li, oswa jou li va rive pou li mouri, oswa li va tonbe nan batay e peri.
11 Jehovah forbid that I should put forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed. But now take, I pray thee, the spear that is at his head, and the cruse of water, and let us go.
SENYÈ a anpeche ke m ta lonje men m kont onksyone SENYÈ a. Men koulye a, souple, pran frenn ki bò kot tèt li a ak veso dlo a, epi, an ale.”
12 So David took the spear and the cruse of water from Saul's head, and they got away. And no man saw it, nor knew it, neither did any awake, for they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from Jehovah was fallen upon them.
Konsa, David te pran frenn nan avèk veso dlo a soti kote tèt a Saül e yo te pati. Men pèsòn pa t konnen, ni leve, paske yo tout t ap dòmi, akoz yon fon somèy ki sòti nan SENYÈ a te vin tonbe sou yo.
13 Then David went over to the other side, and stood on the top of the mountain afar off, a great space being between them.
Konsa, David te travèse de lòt kote, e te kanpe sou tèt mòn nan a yon distans avèk yon gran espas antre yo.
14 And David cried out to the people, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, Answer thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered and said, Who are thou that cries to the king?
David te rele tout moun yo ak Abner, fis a Ner a. Li te di: “Èske ou p ap reponn, Abner?” Alò, Abner te reponn: “Se kilès ou ye k ap rele wa a?”
15 And David said to Abner, Are not thou a valiant man? And who is like to thee in Israel? Why then have thou not kept watch over thy lord the king? For there came one of the people in to destroy the king thy lord.
Konsa, David te di a Abner: “Èske ou pa yon gason? Alò, se kilès ki tankou ou an Israël? Kòmsi, poukisa ou pa t veye mèt ou, wa a? Paske yon moun nan pèp la te vini detwi wa a, mèt ou a.
16 This thing is not good that thou have done. As Jehovah lives, ye are worthy to die because ye have not kept watch over your lord, Jehovah's anointed. And now see where the king's spear is, and the cruse of water that was at his head.
Bagay ke ou te fè a, pa bon! Jan SENYÈ a viv la, fòk ou mouri! Paske ou pa t veye mèt ou, onksyone a SENYÈ a. Konsa, koulye a, gade kote frenn a wa a ye ak veso dlo ki te kote tèt li a.”
17 And Saul knew David's voice, and said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And David said, It is my voice, my lord, O king.
Saül te rekonèt vwa a David, e te di: “Èske se vwa ou, fis mwen, David?” David te di: “Se vwa m, mèt mwen, wa a.”
18 And he said, Why does my lord pursue after his servant? For what have I done? Or what evil is in my hand?
Anplis li te di: “Alò, poukisa mèt mwen ap kouri dèyè sèvitè li a? Paske kisa mwen te fè? Oswa ki mal ki nan men m?
19 Now therefore, I pray thee, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If it be Jehovah who has stirred thee up against me, let him accept an offering, but if it be the sons of men, cursed be they before Jehovah. For they have driven me out this day that I should not cling to the inheritance of Jehovah, saying, Go, serve other gods.
Alò, pou sa, souple kite mèt mwen, wa a, koute pawòl a sèvitè li yo. Si SENYÈ a te boulvèse ou kont mwen, kite Li aksepte yon ofrann. Men si se lèzòm, modi yo ye devan SENYÈ a. Paske yo te chase mwen sòti jodi a pou fè m pa atache ankò a eritaj SENYÈ a. Yo di: ‘Ale sèvi lòt dye yo.’
20 Now therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth away from the presence of Jehovah. For the king of Israel has come out to seek a flea, as when a man hunts a partridge in the mountains.
Alò, pou sa, pa kite san mwen tonbe atè lwen prezans SENYÈ a, paske wa Israël la te vin parèt pou chache yon sèl pis, tankou yon moun k ap fè lachas pentad nan mòn yo.”
21 Then Saul said, I have sinned. Return, my son David, for I will no more do thee harm because my life was precious in thine eyes this day. Behold, I have played the fool, and have erred exceedingly.
Alò Saül te di: “Mwen te peche. Retounen, fis mwen, David. Paske mwen p ap fè ou mal ankò, akoz lavi mwen te presye nan zye ou nan jou sa a. Gade, mwen te jwe wòl a yon enbesil e mwen te fè yon gwo erè.”
22 And David answered and said, Behold the spear, O king! Let then one of the young men come over and fetch it.
David te reponn: “Gade byen, men frenn a wa a! Alò kite youn nan jennonm yo travèse vin pran l.
23 And Jehovah will render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness, inasmuch as Jehovah delivered thee into my hand today, and I would not put forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed.
SENYÈ a va rekonpanse chak moun pou ladwati pa li ak fidelite li; paske SENYÈ a te livre ou nan men m jodi a. Mwen te refize lonje men m kont onksyone a SENYÈ a.
24 And, behold, as thy life was much set by this day in my eyes, so let my life be much set by in the eyes of Jehovah, and let him deliver me out of all tribulation.
Gade byen, jan lavi ou te gen gwo valè nan zye m jodi a, konsa ke vi m ta ye nan men SENYÈ a. Ke li ta delivre mwen nan tout twoub.”
25 Then Saul said to David, Blessed be thou, my son David. Thou shall both do mightily, and shall surely prevail. So David went his way, and Saul returned to his place.
Epi Saül te di a David: “Beni se ou menm, fis mwen, David. Ou va vin reyisi anpil e ou va vin genyen.” Konsa, David te fè wout li e Saül te retounen nan plas li.
