< 2 Samuel 24 >
1 Again the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and moving David against them, he said, Go, take the number of Israel and Judah.
Alò, kòlè SENYÈ a te brile ankò kont Israël e li te pwovoke David kont yo pou di: “Ale konte moun Israël avèk Juda yo.”
2 And the king said to Joab and the captains of the army, who were with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan as far as Beer-sheba, and have all the people numbered, so that I may be certain of the number of the people.
Wa a te di a Joab, chèf lame ki te avèk li a: “Ale, koulye a, atravè tout tribi Israël yo, soti nan Dan jis rive Beer-Schéba e anrejistre pèp la pou m kab konnen nonb de moun yo.”
3 And Joab said to the king, Whatever the number of the people, may the Lord make it a hundred times as much, and may the eyes of my lord the king see it: but why does my lord the king take pleasure in doing this thing?
Men Joab te di a wa a: “Alò, ke SENYÈ a ta kapab ajoute san fwa anplis kantite moun ke yo ye a, pandan zye a mèt mwen an, wa a, kab toujou wè. Men poukisa mèt mwen an, wa a, twouve plezi nan bagay sila a?”
4 But the king's order was stronger than Joab and the captains of the army. And Joab and the captains of the army went out from the king, to take the number of the children of Israel.
Men pawòl a wa a te pran plas kont Joab, e kont chèf lame yo. Pou sa, Joab avèk chèf lame yo te sòti nan prezans wa a pou anrejistre pèp Israël la.
5 And they went over Jordan, and starting from Aroer, from the town which is in the middle of the valley, they went in the direction of the Gadites, and on to Jazer;
Yo te travèse Jourdain an pou te fè kan Aroër, sou bò dwat vil la ki nan mitan vale Gad la, ak vè Jaezer.
6 Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of the Hittites under Hermon; and they came to Dan, and from Dan they came round to Zidon,
Epi yo te vini Galaad, nan peyi Thachthim-Hodschi, yo te rive Danjaan ak kote Sidon an.
7 And to the walled town of Tyre, and to all the towns of the Hivites and the Canaanites: and they went out to the South of Judah at Beer-sheba.
Epi yo te rive nan fòterès Tyr la, nan tout vil a Evyen yo ak Kananeyen yo; epi yo te sòti nan sid Juda, nan Beer-Schéba.
8 So after going through all the land in every direction, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
Konsa, lè yo te fin pase nan tout peyi a, yo te vini Jérusalem nan fen nèf mwa e ven jou.
9 And Joab gave the king the number of all the people: there were in Israel eight hundred thousand fighting men able to take up arms; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand.
Epi Joab te bay nimewo anrejistreman pèp la bay wa a. Te gen an Israël, ui-san-mil mesye vanyan ki te kapab rale nepe e mesye nan Juda yo te senk-san-mil.
10 And after the people had been numbered, David's heart was troubled. And David said to the Lord, Great has been my sin in doing this; but now, O Lord, be pleased to take away the sin of your servant, for I have done very foolishly
Koulye a, kè David te vin twouble lè li te fin konte pèp la. Konsa, David te di a SENYÈ a: “Mwen te fè gwo peche nan sa mwen te fè a. Men koulye a, O SENYÈ, souple retire inikite a sèvitè Ou a, paske mwen te aji nan foli.”
11 And David got up in the morning; now the word of the Lord had come to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
Lè David te leve nan maten, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a pwofèt Gad la, vwayan David la, e li te di:
12 Go and say to David, The Lord says, Three things are offered to you: say which of them you will have, and I will do it to you.
“Ale pale avèk David: ‘Konsa SENYÈ a di: “Mwen ap ofri ou twa bagay; chwazi pou ou menm youn nan yo, pou m fè ou.”’”
13 So Gad came to David, and gave him word of this and said to him, Are there to be three years when there is not enough food in your land? or will you go in flight from your haters for three months, while they go after you? or will you have three days of violent disease in your land? take thought and say what answer I am to give to him who sent me.
Konsa, Gad te rive kote David e li te di li: “Èske sèt ane gwo grangou va rive ou nan peyi ou? Oswa èske ou va sove ale pandan twa mwa devan lènmi ou yo pandan y ap kouri dèyè ou? Oswa èske va gen twa jou gwo epidemi nan peyi ou? Alò konsidere e wè ki repons mwen va pote bay Sila ki te voye mwen an.”
14 And David said to Gad, This is a hard decision for me to make: let us come into the hands of the Lord, for great are his mercies: let me not come into the hands of men.
Epi David te di a Gad: “Mwen nan gwo pwoblèm. Annou tonbe nan men a SENYÈ a, paske mizerikòd Li gran; men pa kite mwen tonbe nan men a lòm.”
15 So David made selection of the disease; and the time was the days of the grain-cutting, when the disease came among the people, causing the death of seventy thousand men from Dan as far as Beer-sheba.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te voye yon epidemi sou Israël jis rive nan maten nan lè chwazi a e swasann-di-mil moun nan pèp la soti Dan jis rive Beer-Schéba te mouri.
16 And when the hand of the angel was stretched out in the direction of Jerusalem, for its destruction, the Lord had regret for the evil, and said to the angel who was sending destruction on the people, It is enough; do no more. And the angel of the Lord was by the grain-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
Lè zanj lan te lonje men li vè Jérusalem pou detwi li, SENYÈ a te repanti de gwo malè a. Li te di a zanj ki te detwi pèp la: “Sa ase! Koulye a, lache men ou!” Epi zanj SENYÈ a te akote glasi a Aravna a, Jebizyen an.
17 And when David saw the angel who was causing the destruction of the people, he said to the Lord, Truly, the sin is mine; I have done wrong: but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand be against me and against my family.
Konsa, David te pale a SENYÈ a lè li te wè zanj ki t ap frape pèp la. Li te di: “Gade byen, se mwen ki te peche a, se mwen ki te fè mal la. Men mouton sila yo, kisa yo te fè? Souple, kite men Ou vin kont mwen, ak kont lakay papa m.”
18 And that day Gad came to David and said to him, Go up, and put up an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
Konsa, Gad te rive kote David nan jou sa menm, e li te di li: “Ale monte, bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a sou glasi Aravna a, Jebizyen an.”
19 So David went up, as Gad had said and as the Lord had given orders.
David te monte pa pawòl a Gad la, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande a.
20 And Araunah, looking out, saw the king and his servants coming to him: and Araunah went out, and went down on his face to the earth before the king.
Aravna te gade anba e te wè wa a avèk sèvitè li yo ki t ap travèse bò kote li. Epi Aravna te parèt deyò e li te bese figi li jiska atè devan wa a.
21 And Araunah said, Why has my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To give you a price for your grain-floor, so that I may put up an altar to the Lord, and the disease may be stopped among the people.
Alò, Aravna te di: “Poukisa mèt mwen, wa a, te vin kote sèvitè li a?” David te reponn: “Pou achte glasi a nan men ou, pou m kab bati yon lotèl bay SENYÈ a, pou epidemi an kab vin sispann sou pèp la.”
22 And Araunah said to David, Let my lord the king take whatever seems right to him, and make an offering of it: see, here are the oxen for the burned offering, and the grain-cleaning instruments and the ox-yokes for wood:
Aravna te di a David: “Kite mèt mwen an, wa a, pran sa li wè ki bon nan zye li, e ofri li. Gade, men bèf pou ofrann brile a, bwa kabwèt yo avèk jouk bèf yo pou bwa dife a.
23 All this does the servant of my lord the king give to the king. And Araunah said, May the Lord your God be pleased with your offering!
Tout bagay, O wa, Aravna ap bay wa a.” Epi Aravna te di a wa a: “Ke SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, kapab kontan avèk ou.”
24 And the king said to Araunah, No, but I will give you a price for it; I will not give to the Lord my God burned offerings for which I have given nothing. So David got the grain-floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
Sepandan, wa a te di a Aravna: “Non, men mwen va, anverite, achte li pou yon pri. Paske mwen p ap ofri ofrann brile bay SENYÈ a, Bondye mwen an ki pa koute m anyen.” Konsa, David te achte glasi a avèk bèf yo pou senkant sik ajan.
25 And there David put up an altar to the Lord, making burned offerings and peace-offerings. So the Lord gave ear to his prayer for the land, and the disease came to an end in Israel.
David te bati la yon lotèl bay SENYÈ a e li te ofri ofrann brile yo avèk ofrann lapè yo. Konsa, SENYÈ a te kontan akoz lapriyè pou peyi a, e epidemi an te vin sispann an Israël.
