2 Samuel 23
1 Now these are the last words of David. David the son of Jesse saith, And the man who was raised on high saith, The anointed of the God of Jacob, And the sweet psalmist of Israel:
Alò, sila yo se dènye pawòl a David yo. David, fis a Jesse a deklare, Mesye ki te leve anwo a deklare, Sila ki onksyone pa Bondye a Jacob la, Chantè dous Israël la,
2 The Spirit of Jehovah spake by me, And his word was upon my tongue.
Nan mwen, Lespri SENYÈ a te pale, Pawòl pa Li te sou lang mwen.
3 The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spake to me: One that ruleth over men righteously, That ruleth in the fear of God,
Bondye a Israël la te di, Wòch Israël la te pale mwen, Sila ki renye sou lèzòm avèk ladwati Li a, ki renye avèk lakrent Bondye yo,
4 [He shall be] as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, A morning without clouds, [When] the tender grass [springeth] out of the earth, Through clear shining after rain.
Se tankou limyè maten lè solèy la leve, Yon maten san nwaj, lè zèb tounèf Vin sòti nan tè a nan solèy apre lapli.
5 Verily my house is not so with God; Yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, Ordered in all things, and sure: For it is all my salvation, and all [my] desire, Although he maketh it not to grow.
Vrèman, se pa konsa lakay mwen ye avèk Bondye? Paske Li te fè yon akò k ap dire nèt avè m, An lòd nan tout bagay e byen solid. Pou tout sali mwen avèk tout dezi mwen, èske, anverite, Li p ap fè l grandi?
6 But the ungodly shall be all of them as thorns to be thrust away, Because they cannot be taken with the hand;
Men sanzave yo, yo chak va pouse jete deyò tankou raje pikan. Konsa, pèsòn p ap kab pran yo an men.
7 But the man that toucheth them Must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear: And they shall be utterly burned with fire in [their] place.
Men nonm nan ki touche yo, dwe ame avèk fè ak shaf lans. Kèlkeswa, yo va vin brile nèt avèk dife, nan plas kote yo ye a.
8 These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb-basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite, against eight hundred slain at one time.
Sila yo se non a mesye vanyan ki te pou David yo: Joscheb-Basschébeth, Tachkemonit lan, youn nan ofisye prensipal yo. Avèk lans li ui-sant òm te mouri yon sèl kou yo.
9 And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of an Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away.
Apre li menm, se Éléazar, fis a Dodo a, Achochit la. Li te youn nan twa gèrye ki te, ansanm ak David yo, ki te konfwonte Filisten ki te rasanble pou batay yo, lè lòt mesye Israël yo te fè bak yo.
10 He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword; and Jehovah wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to take spoil.
Li te leve frape Filisten yo jiskaske men li te fatige e te kole a nepe a. Konsa, SENYÈ a te fè parèt yon gran viktwa nan jou sa a. Pèp la te swiv li sèlman pou piyaje mò yo.
11 And after him was Shammah the son of Agee a Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a plot of ground full of lentils; and the people fled from the Philistines.
Alò, apre li se te Schamma, fis Agué a, yon Ararit. Filisten yo te rasanble nan yon ekip kote yon moso tè te plen avèk pwa lantiy e pèp la te kouri devan Filisten yo.
12 But he stood in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and slew the Philistines; and Jehovah wrought a great victory.
Men li te kanpe pran pozisyon li nan mitan chan an pou defann tè a. Li te frape Filisten yo; epi SENYÈ a te fè vini yon gran viktwa.
13 And three of the thirty chief men went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam; and the troop of the Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
Alò, twa nan trant mesye pifò yo te desann kote David nan tan rekòlt la kote kavèn Adullam nan pandan ekip Filisten an t ap fè kan nan vale Rephaïm nan.
14 And David was then in the stronghold; and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Beth-lehem.
Nan tan sa a, David te la nan fò a, pandan ganizon Filisten an te Bethléhem.
15 And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me water to drink of the well of Beth-lehem, which is by the gate!
David te gen yon anvi, e li te di: “Men kijan mwen ta kontan si yon moun ta ban m dlo pou bwè ki sòti nan pwi Bethléhem akote pòtay la!”
16 And the three mighty men brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto Jehovah.
Konsa, twa mesye vanyan sa yo te pete antre nan kan Filisten yo. Yo te rale dlo nan pwi Bethléhem ki te akote pòtay la, e yo te pote li bay David. Malgre sa, li te refize bwè l, men li te vide li bay SENYÈ a.
17 And he said, Be it far from me, O Jehovah, that I should do this: [shall I drink] the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men.
Konsa, li te di: “Lwen de mwen O SENYÈ! Èske m ta bwè san a mesye ki te mete lavi yo nan gwo danje a?” Pou sa, li pa t bwè li. Se zèv sila yo ke twa mesye vanyan sa yo te fè.
18 And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred and slew them, and had a name among the three.
Abischaï, frè a Joab la, fis a Tseruja a, te chèf a trant yo. Li te voye lans li kont twa san moun, li te touye yo, e li te gen yon non ki vin rekonèt menm jan ak twa yo.
19 Was he not most honorable of the three? therefore he was made their captain: howbeit he attained not unto the [first] three.
Li te pi onore pami trant yo. Konsa, li te devni chèf yo. Malgre sa, li pa t rive nan nivo a twa yo.
20 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, he slew the two [sons of] Ariel of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow.
Alò, Benaja, fis a Jehojada a, fis a yon mesye vanyan nan Kabtséel, ki te fè zak byen fò, li te touye de fis a Ariel yo nan Moab. Anplis, li te desann e te touye yon lyon nan mitan a yon fòs yon jou pandan lanèj t ap tonbe.
21 And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear.
Li te touye yon Ejipsyen, yon mesye mèvèy. Alò, Ejipsyen an te gen yon lans nan men li, men li te desann kote li avèk yon gwo baton e li te sezi lans lan soti nan men Ejipsyen an e te touye li avèk pwòp lans li an.
22 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had a name among the three mighty men.
Bagay sa yo, Benaja, fis a Jehojada a te fè e non l te gen repitasyon menm jan ak twa mesye vanyan yo.
23 He was more honorable than the thirty, but he attained not to the [first] three. And David set him over his guard.
Li te onore pami trant yo, men li pa t rive nan nivo a twa yo. Epi David te plase li kòm chèf sou gad li.
