2 Samuel 4
1 And when Saul's son Ish-bosheth had news that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.
Lè Ichbochèt, pitit Sayil la, pran nouvèl jan Abnè te mouri lavil Ebwon, kè l' kase nèt. Tout pèp Izrayèl la te tèt anba.
2 And Saul's son had two men, captains of bands, one named Baanah and the other Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the tribe of Benjamin; (for Beeroth was at one time taken to be part of Benjamin:
Ichbochèt te gen nan lame li a de chèf piyajè ki te rele Bana ak Rekab. Yo te pitit Rimon, yon nonm nan branch fanmi Benjamen an ki te rete lavil Bewòt. Yo te toujou mete nan tèt yo lavil Bewòt se pou branch fanmi Benjamen an li ye,
3 But the people of Beeroth had gone in flight to Gittaim, where they have been living to this day.)
depi lè moun Bewòt yo te kouri kite lavil la pou y' al lavil Gitayim, kote y'ap viv jouk koulye a.
4 Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son whose feet were damaged. He was five years old when news of the death of Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel, and the woman who took care of him took him up and went in flight: and while she was getting him away as quickly as she was able, he had a fall and his feet were damaged. His name was Mephibosheth.
Jonatan, pitit Sayil la, te gen yon pitit gason yo te rele Mefibochèt. Li te enfim nan tou de pye l' yo. Li te gen senkan lè Sayil ak Jonatan mouri. Lè nouvèl lanmò yo rive soti lavil Jizreyèl, nouris la pran Mefibochèt, li kouri al kache avè l'. Men, pandan l'ap prese kouri a, pitit la sot tonbe nan men l'. Se konsa li vin enfim nan pye.
5 And Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, went out and came to the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, when he was resting in the middle of the day. Now the woman who kept the door was cleaning grain, and sleep overcame her.
Rekab ak Bana, pitit gason Rimon, moun lavil Bewòt la, pati pou lakay Ichbochèt. Yo rive vè midi. Lè sa a, Ichbochèt t'ap fè yon ti dòmi pou poze kò l'.
6 And Rechab and his brother Baanah got in without being seen.
Fanm ki t'ap veye bò pòt la t'ap triye ble, men li te kite dòmi pran l'. Se konsa mesye yo fofile kò yo antre nan kay la.
7 And when they came into the house, Ish-bosheth was stretched on his bed in his bedroom; and they made an attack on him and put him to death, and, cutting off his head, they took it with them and went by the road through the Arabah all night.
Lè yo rive anndan, y' al nan pyès chanm kote Ichbochèt te kouche ap dòmi an, yo touye l'. Lèfini, yo koupe tèt li, yo pran l', yo pati avè l'. Yo pase nwit lan ap mache nan fon Jouden an.
8 And they took the head of Ish-bosheth to David in Hebron, and said to the king, Here is the head of Ish-bosheth, the son of Saul your hater, who would have taken your life; the Lord has taken payment for the wrongs of my lord the king from Saul and his seed today.
Yo pote tèt Ichbochèt bay David lavil Ebwon. Yo di l' konsa: -Men tèt Ichbochèt, pitit Sayil la, moun ki pa t' vle wè ou la, moun ki t'ap chache touye ou la. Jòdi a Seyè a bay monwa chans pou li tire revanj sou Sayil ansanm ak sou rès fanmi li.
9 And David made answer to Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, By the living Lord, who has kept me safe from all my trouble,
David reponn yo: -Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a ki delivre m' nan tout malè,
10 When one came to me with the news of Saul's death, in the belief that it would be good news, I took him and put him to death in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news:
lè moun ki te vin fè m' konnen Sayil te mouri a te kwè se yon bon nouvèl li t'ap pote ban mwen, mwen pran l', mwen fè touye l' lavil Ziklag. Men rekonpans mwen te ba li pou bon nouvèl sa a.
11 How much more, when evil men have put an upright person to death, in his house, sleeping on his bed, will I take payment from you for his blood, and have you cut off from the earth?
Sa pral pi rèd toujou pou nou, bann mechan, ki touye yon inonsan anndan lakay li, nan kabann li. Mwen pral fè nou peye pou touye nou touye l' la, mwen pral fè yo disparèt nou sou latè.
12 And David gave orders to his young men and they put them to death, cutting off their hands and their feet and hanging them up by the side of the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ish-bosheth and put it in its last resting-place with Abner's body in Hebron.
David bay sòlda yo lòd epi yo touye Rekab ak Bana. Yo koupe de men ak de pye yo. Y' al pann yo bò rezèvwa dlo Ebwon an. Apre sa, yo pran tèt Ichbochèt, y' al antere l' Ebwon, nan tonm Abnè a.
