< 2 Samuel 5 >

1 Then all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron and said, Truly, we are your bone and your flesh.
Alò, tout tribi Israël yo te vin kote David Hébron e te di: “Gade byen, nou se pwòp zo ou ak chè ou.
2 In the past when Saul was king over us, it was you who went at the head of Israel when they went out or came in: and the Lord said to you, You are to be the keeper of my people Israel and their ruler.
Avan, lè Saül te wa sou nou, se te ou menm sèl ki te mennen Israël antre, sòti. Epi SENYÈ a te di ou: ‘Ou va bèje pèp Mwen an, Israël e ou va yon chèf sou Israël.’”
3 So all the responsible men of Israel came to the king at Hebron; and King David made an agreement with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they put the holy oil on David and made him king over Israel.
Konsa, tout ansyen Israël yo te vin kote wa a Hébron e Wa David te fè yon akò avèk yo devan SENYÈ a Hébron. Epi yo te onksyone David wa sou Israël.
4 David was thirty years old when he became king, and he was king for forty years,
David te gen laj a trantan lè l te devni wa. Li te renye pandan karantan.
5 Ruling over Judah in Hebron for seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem, over all Israel and Judah, for thirty-three years.
Nan Hébron, li te renye sou Juda pandan sèt ane, si mwa e nan Jérusalem, li te renye pandan trann-twazan sou tout Israël avèk Juda.
6 And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the people of the land: and they said to David, You will not come in here, but the blind and the feeble-footed will keep you out; for they said, David will not be able to come in here.
Alò, wa a avèk moun pa li yo te ale Jérusalem kont Jebizyen yo, moun ki te rete nan peyi a. Men yo te di a David: “Ou p ap antre isit la, men menm avèg yo avèk bwate yo va fè ou vire ale”. Paske yo te panse ke: “David p ap kab antre la.”
7 But David took the strong place of Zion, which is the town of David.
Sepandan, David te kaptire fòterès Sion an, sa vle di, “vil David la”.
8 And that day David said, Whoever makes an attack on the Jebusites, let him go up by the water-pipe, and put to death all the blind and feeble-footed who are hated by David. And this is why they say, The blind and feeble-footed may not come into the house.
David te di nan jou sa a: “Nenpòt moun ki va frape Jebizyen yo, kite li rive kote bwate yo avèk avèg yo, ki rayi pa nanm David, pa kanal dlo a.” Akoz sa, yo konn di: “Avèg ak bwate p ap antre nan kay la.”
9 So David took the strong tower for his living-place, naming it the town of David. And David took in hand the building of the town all round, starting from the Millo.
Konsa, David te rete nan fò a e li te rele li “Vil David la”. Epi David te bati toutotou soti nan sitadèl Milo a jis rive anndan.
10 And David became greater and greater; for the Lord, the God of armies, was with him.
David te devni gran e pi gran, paske SENYÈ a, Bondye dèzame yo te avèk li.
11 And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent men to David, with cedar-trees and woodworkers and stoneworkers: and they made David a house.
Alò, Hiram, wa a Tyr la, te voye mesaje yo kote David avèk bwa sèd avèk chapant ak mason k ap kraze wòch; epi yo te bati yon kay pou David.
12 And David saw that the Lord had made his position safe as king over Israel, and that he had made his kingdom great because of his people Israel.
Konsa, David te vin wè ke SENYÈ a te etabli li kòm wa sou Israël, ke Li te egzalte wayòm li an pou koz pèp Li a, Israël.
13 And David took more women and wives in Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron: and he had more sons and daughters.
Antretan, David te pran plis ti mennaj avèk madanm soti Jérusalem lè l fin kite Hébron; epi plis fis avèk fi te fèt pou David.
14 These are the names of those whose birth took place in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab and Nathan and Solomon
Alò, sila yo se non a sila ki te fèt pou li Jérusalem yo: Schammua, Schobab, Nathan, Salomon,
15 And Ibhar and Elishua and Nepheg and Japhia
Jibhar, Élishua, Népheg, Japhia,
16 And Elishama and Eliada and Eliphelet.
Élischama, Éliada, Éliphéleth.
17 And when the Philistines had news that David had been made king over Israel, they all went up in search of David; and David, hearing of it, went down to the strong place.
Lè Filisten yo te tande ke yo te onksyone David wa sou Israël, tout Filisten yo te monte pou chache jwenn David. Lè David te tande sa, li te desann nan fò a.
18 And when the Philistines came, they went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.
Alò, Filisten yo te vin gaye yo nan vale Rephaïm nan.
19 And David, desiring directions from the Lord, said, Am I to go up against the Philistines? will you give them up into my hands? And the Lord said, Go up, for I will certainly give up the Philistines into your hands.
Konsa, David te mande konsèy a SENYÈ a. Li te mande: “Èske mwen dwe monte kont Filisten yo? Èske Ou va livre yo nan men mwen?” SENYÈ a te reponn a David: “Monte, paske vrèman, Mwen va livre Filisten yo nan men ou.”
20 And David went to Baal-perazim, and overcame them there; and he said, The Lord has let the forces fighting against me be broken before me as a wall is broken by rushing waters. So that place was named Baal-perazim.
Konsa, David te vini Baal-Peratism e te bat yo la. Li te di: “SENYÈ a te antre sou lènmi mwen yo devan m tankou yon dlo k ap kase.” Pou sa, li te rele plas sa a Baal-Peratsim.
21 And the Philistines, when they went in flight, did not take their images with them, and David and his men took them away.
Yo te abandone zidòl yo la. Pou sa, David avèk mesye li yo te pote yo ale.
22 And the Philistines came up again, and went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.
Alò, Filisten yo te monte yon fwa ankò. Yo te gaye yo nan vale Rephaïm nan.
23 And when David went for directions to the Lord, he said, You are not to go up against them in front; but make a circle round them from the back and come on them opposite the spice-trees.
Lè David te mande konsèy a SENYÈ a, Li te di: “Ou pa pou monte. Ansèkle jis pa dèyè yo e vini sou yo pa devan pye sikomò yo.
24 Then at the sound of footsteps in the tops of the trees, go forward quickly, for the Lord has gone out before you to overcome the army of the Philistines.
Li va rive, ke lè ou tande son mache a sou tèt bwa yo; alò, ou va aji vit, paske se nan lè sa a ke SENYÈ a ap gen tan sòti devan ou pou frape lame Filisten an.”
25 And David did as the Lord had said; and he overcame the Philistines, attacking them from Gibeon to near Gezer.
Alò, David te fè konsa, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande li a, e li te bat Filisten yo soti Guéba, pou jis rive Guézer.
