Kings III 20
1 And Nabuthai the Jezraelite had a vineyard, near the threshing floor of Achaab king of Samaria.
Bennadad, wa peyi Siri a, reyini tout lame li a. Trannde lòt wa, avèk tout chwal yo ak cha lagè yo, vin mete tèt ansanm avè l'. Bennadad mache sou lavil Samari. Li sènen l', li atake l'.
2 And Achaab spoke to Nabuthai, saying, Give me your vineyard, and I will have it for a garden of herbs, for it [is] near my house: and I will give you another vineyard better than it; or if it please you, I will give you money, the price of this your vineyard, and I will have it for a garden of herbs.
Li voye mesaje anndan lavil la bò kote Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la,
3 And Nabuthai said to Achaab, My God forbid me that I should give you the inheritance of my fathers.
pou di li: -Wa Bennadad voye di ou tout bagay ou gen an lò ak an ajan se pou li yo ye. Tout madanm ou yo ak tout pi bon pitit gason ou yo se pou li yo ye tou.
4 And the spirit of Achaab was troubled, and he lay down upon his bed, and covered his face, and ate no bread.
Wa Akab reponn: -Di wa Bennadad, mèt mwen, se jan li vle! Li mèt pran m' ansanm ak tou sa m' genyen.
5 And Jezabel his wife went in to him, and spoke to him, [saying], Why [is] your spirit troubled, and [why] do you eat no bread?
Mesaje yo tounen ankò vin di Akab: -Men sa Bennadab voye di ou: M' te voye mande ou pou ou ban mwen tou sa ou gen an lò ak an ajan, tout madanm ak tout pitit gason ou yo.
6 And he said to her, Because I spoke to Nabuthai the Jezraelite, saying, Give me your vineyard for money; or if you will, I will give you another vineyard for it: and he said, I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers.
Koulye a, denmen vè lè konsa, m'ap voye moun pa m' yo pou yo fouye palè ou la ak kay tout moun pa ou yo, pou yo pran tou sa y'a jwenn ki gen valè nan je yo.
7 And Jezabel his wife said to him, Do you now thus act the king over Israel? arise, and eat bread, and be your own [master], and I will give you the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite.
Wa Akab fè rele tout chèf fanmi ki nan peyi a, li di yo konsa: -Jan nou wè l' la, nonm sa a soti pou l' pran tou sa nou genyen. Li te voye mande m' madanm mwen yo, pitit gason m' yo ak tout bagay an lò ak an ajan mwen genyen. Mwen pa refize l' anyen.
8 And she wrote a letter in the name of Achaab, and sealed it with his seal, and sent the letter to the elders, and to the freemen who lived with Nabuthai.
Chèf fanmi yo ansanm ak pèp la di l' konsa: -Pa koute l', pa dakò avè l'!
9 And it was written in the letters, saying, Keep a fast, and set Naboth in a chief place amongst the people.
Lè sa a, Akab di mesaje Bennadab yo: -Ale di mèt mwen, wa Bennadab, m' te dakò ak sa li te mande m' premye fwa a. Men, sa l' mande fwa sa a, m' pa ka fè l'. Mesaje yo pati, y' al pote repons lan bay Bennadad.
10 And set two men, sons of transgressors, before him, and let them testify against him, saying, He blessed God and the king: and let them lead him forth, and stone him, and let them die.
Bennadab voye yo tounen al di Akab: -M'ap vini ak anpil moun pou m' kraze lavil Samari. p'ap gen ase demoli pou m' bay chak moun ki avè m' yo ti kras pou yo pote ale sitèlman y'ap anpil. Si m' pa fè sa, se pou bondye yo ban m' pi gwo pinisyon ki genyen
11 And the men of his city, the elders, and the nobles who lived in his city, did as Jezabel sent to them, and as it had been written in the letters which she sent to them.
Wa Akab voye reponn li: -Yon sòlda pa fèt pou l' ap vante tèt li anvan l' al goumen.
12 And they proclaimed a fast, and set Nebuthai in a chief place amongst the people.
Bennadad t'ap bwè ak lòt wa yo anba tant yo lè yo pote repons Akab la ba li. Lamenm, li bay moun pa l' yo lòd pou yo mache sou lavil Samari. Se konsa, y' al pare pou atake.
13 And two men, sons of transgressors, came in, and sat opposite him, and bore witness against him, saying, You have blessed God and the king. And they led him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, and he died.
Lè sa a, yon pwofèt Bondye vin jwenn Akab, li di l' konsa: -Men sa Seyè a voye di ou: Ou wè tout kantite sòlda sa yo? Enben, mwen pral lage yo nan men ou jòdi a, konsa w'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
14 And they sent to Jezabel, saying, Nabuthai is stoned, and is dead.
Akab mande l': -Ki moun ou pral fè lage yo nan men m' jòdi a? Pwofèt la reponn li: -Seyè a voye di ou se jenn sòlda ki sou lòd gouvènè pwovens yo ki pral fè l'. Wa mande ankò: -Ki moun ki pral atake anvan? Pwofèt la reponn: -Ou menm.
15 And it came to pass, when Jezabel heard [it], that she said to Achaab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, who would not sell it to you: for Nebuthai is not alive, for he is dead.
Lamenm, wa a fè rele jenn sòlda ki te sou lòd gouvènè pwovens yo. Li jwenn desantrannde (232) sòlda antou. Apre sa, li fè rele tout lame pèp Izrayèl la, li jwenn sètmil (7.000) gason.
16 And it came to pass, when Achaab heard that Nabuthai the Jezraelite was dead, that he tore his garments, and put on sackcloth. And it came to pass afterward, that Achaab arose and went down to the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, to take possession of it.
Vè midi, yo soti al atake pandan Bennadad ansanm ak trannde lòt wa ki t'ap mache avè l' yo t'ap bwè anba tant yo.
17 And the Lord spoke to Eliu the Thesbite, saying,
Se jenn sòlda yo ki t'ap mache devan. Bennadad te voye al wè jan sa ye bò kay moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Yo vin di li yo wè yon gwoup sòlda ki t'ap soti lavil Samari.
18 Arise, and go down to meet Achaab king of Israel, who is in Samaria, for he [is] in the vineyard of Nabuthai, for he has gone down there to take possession of it.
Lè sa a, li di: -M' pa bezwen konnen si y'ap vin pou goumen osinon pou mande lapè, kenbe yo vivan mennen ban mwen.
19 And you shall speak to him, saying, Thus says the Lord, Forasmuch as you have slain and taken possession, therefore thus says the Lord, In every place where the swine and the dogs have licked the blood of Nabuthai, there shall the dogs lick your blood; and the harlots shall wash themselves in your blood.
Jenn sòlda gouvènè yo soti nan lavil la pou al atake. Yo t'ap mache devan, rès lame a t'ap swiv yo.
20 And Achaab said to Eliu, Hast you found me, mine enemy? and he said, I have found [you]: because you have wickedly sold yourself to work evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger;
Yo chak yo touye moun ki te vin pou goumen ak yo a. Moun peyi Siri yo pran kouri, moun Izrayèl yo menm t'ap kouri dèyè yo. Bennadad menm resi chape kò l' sou chwal ansanm ak kèk lòt kavalye.
21 behold, I bring evil upon you: and I will kindle a fire after you, and I will utterly destroy every male of Achaab, and him that is shut up and him that is left in Israel.
Wa Akab vin atake lè sa a, li touye chwal moun Siri yo, li kraze cha lagè yo. Li bat moun Siri yo byen bat.
22 And I will make your house as the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and as the house of Baasa son of Achia, because of the provocations wherewith you have provoked [me], and caused Israel to sin.
Apre sa, pwofèt la al jwenn wa Akab, li di l' konsa: -Ou mèt tounen koulye a, mete lame ou la anfòm. Kalkile byen sou sa ou pral fè, paske nan ennan, dat pou dat, wa peyi Siri a ap tounen vin atake ou ankò.
23 And the Lord spoke of Jezabel, saying, The dogs shall devour her within the fortification of Jezrael.
Chèf ki te avèk wa Bennadad yo vin di l': -Bondye pèp Izrayèl yo se bondye mòn yo ye. Se poutèt sa yo bat nou jan yo bat nou an. Men, si nou goumen ak yo nan tè plat, wè pa wè, n'ap bat yo.
24 Him that is dead of Achaab in the city shall the dogs eat, and him that is dead of him in the field shall the birds of the sky eat.
Koulye a, men sa ou pral fè. Wete kòmandman an nan men lòt wa yo, mete chèf pa ou nan plas yo.
25 But Achaab [did] wickedly, in that he sold himself to do that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his wife Jezabel led him astray.
Ou menm ou pral moute yon gwo lame tankou lame ou pèdi a, ak menm kantite chwal ak cha lagè ou te gen anvan an. Nou pral goumen ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo nan plenn. W'ap wè fwa sa a n'ap bat yo. Wa Bennadad dakò, li fè sa chèf yo te di l' fè a.
26 And he did very abominably in following after the abominations, according to all that the Amorite did, whom the Lord utterly destroyed from before the children of Israel.
Ennan apre, dat pou dat, li reyini tout sòlda moun peyi Siri yo, li mennen yo jouk lavil Afèk pou y' al atake moun peyi Izrayèl yo.
27 And because of the word, Achaab was pierced with sorrow before the Lord, and he both went weeping, and tore his garment, and girded sackcloth upon his body, and fasted; he put on sackcloth also in the day that he struck Nabuthai the Jezraelite, and went his way.
Akab reyini tout lame pèp Izrayèl la, li ba yo zam ak pwovizyon. Yo soti al kontre moun Siri yo. Yo separe fè de gwoup, yo moute kan yo devan lame moun Siri yo. Sòlda peyi Izrayèl yo te sanble ak de ti bann kabrit devan lame moun Siri a menm ki te kouvri tout peyi a.
28 And the word of the Lord came by the hand of his servant Eliu concerning Achaab, and the Lord said,
Yon pwofèt Bondye vin jwenn Akab, wa Izrayèl la, li di l' konsa: -Men mesaj Seyè a voye ba ou: Paske moun Siri yo di se yon bondye mòn mwen ye, mwen pa konn tè plat, mwen pral lage tout gwo lame sa a nan men ou. Konsa w'a konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
29 Hast you seen how Achaab has been pricked [to the heart] before me? I will not bring on the evil in his days, but in his son's days will I bring on the evil.
Pandan sèt jou, moun Siri yo ak moun Izrayèl yo rete nan kan yo, yonn anfas lòt. Sou setyèm jou a yo konmanse goumen. Moun Izrayèl yo touye sanmil (100.000) moun Siri.
30 And the son of Ader gathered all his forces, and went up and besieged Samaria, [he] and thirty-two kings with him, and all [his] horse and chariots: and they went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
Sa ki chape yo kouri ale lavil Afèk. Lè yo rive la, miray lavil la tonbe sou yo, li touye vennsètmil (27.000) sòlda ki te rete yo. Bennadad tou te chape kò l' nan lagè a. Li antre nan yon kay, l' al kache nan yon pyès jouk nan fon.
31 And he sent into the city to Achaab king of Israel, and said to him, Thus says the son of Ader,
Moun pa l' yo vin jwenn li, yo di l' konsa: -Nou tande jan wa peyi Izrayèl yo se moun ki gen bon kè. Ban nou otorizasyon pou n' al jwenn wa peyi Izrayèl la. N'ap mete rad sak sou nou tankou moun yo fè prizonye. Ou pa janm konnen li ka sove lavi ou.
32 Your silver and your gold are mine, and your wives and your children are mine.
Se konsa yo mete rad sak sou yo tankou moun ki nan lapenn, yo plòtonnen moso kòd nan kou yo, y' al jwenn Akab, yo di l' konsa: -Bennadad voye di ou, monwa, se esklav ou li ye. Tanpri, pa touye l'. Akab reponn: -An! Msye vivan toujou. Mwen byen kontan! Se yon frè li ye pou mwen wi!
33 And the king of Israel answered and said, As you have said, my lord, O king, I am your, and all mine [also].
Moun Bennadad yo pran sa pou yon bon siy, yo repete pawòl ki te fèk sot nan bouch wa a, yo di l' konsa: -Bennadad, se frè monwa! Akab reponn: -Al chache l' mennen ban mwen! Bennadad soti kote l' te ye a, li parèt devan Akab, Akab fè l' moute sou cha pa l' ansanm avè l'.
34 And the messengers came again, and said, Thus says the son of Ader, I sent to you, saying, You shall give me your silver and your gold, and your wives and your children.
Bennadad di li: -M'ap renmèt ou tout lavil papa m' te pran nan men papa ou yo. Ou mèt louvri boutik nan lavil Damas pou vann, menm jan papa m' te fè l' lavil Samari. Akab reponn li: -Si se konsa, w'ap pase yon kontra avè m', mwen menm m'ap kite ou al fè wout ou. Akab pase yon kontra avèk Bennadad, lèfini li kite l' al fè wout li.
35 For at this time to-morrow I will send my servants to you, and they shall search your house, and the houses of your servants, and it shall be that all the desirable objects of their eyes on which they shall lay their hands, they shall even take [them].
Nan menm epòk sa a, Seyè a pale ak yon pwofèt nan gwoup pwofèt li yo. Li ba li lòd pou li mande yon lòt pwofèt ba l' kou. Men lòt pwofèt la derefize.
36 And the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Take notice now and consider, that this man seeks mischief: for he has sent to me concerning my wives, and concerning my sons, an concerning my daughters: I have not kept back from him my silver and my gold.
Lè sa a, premye pwofèt la di l' konsa: -Poutèt ou derefize obeyi lòd Seyè a, separe n'a separe, yon lyon ap touye ou. Konsa vre, ale premye pwofèt la ale, yon lyon vin rive, li touye lòt pwofèt la.
37 And the elders and all the people said to him, Listen not, and consent not.
Apre sa, premye pwofèt la kontre yon lòt moun, li mande l' pou li ba l' kou. Nonm lan frape l' byen fò, jouk li mete san l' deyò.
38 And he said to the messengers of the son of Ader, Say to your master, All things that you have sent to your servant about at first I will do; but this thing I shall not be able to do. And the men departed, and carried back the answer to him.
Lèfini, pwofèt la kouvri figi l' ak yon moso twal pou moun pa rekonèt li, l' al kanpe bò wout la ap tann wa a pase.
39 And the son of Ader sent to him, saying, So do God to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for foxes to all the people, even my infantry.
Lè wa a vin ap pase, pwofèt la pran pale byen fò, li di konsa: -Monwa, mwen te nan mitan batay la, mwen t'ap goumen lè yon sòlda mennen yon lènmi li te fè prizonye. Li di m' konsa: Veye msye pou mwen. Si ou kite l' chape anba men ou, m'ap touye ou osinon w'ap peye twamil (3.000) pyès an ajan pou li.
40 And the king of Israel answered and said, Let it be sufficient; let not the humpbacked boast as he that is upright.
Men, monwa, pandan m' okipe ap fè lòt bagay, prizonye a sove. Wa Izrayèl la di l' konsa: -Se ou menm ki kondannen tèt ou, lèfini ou tou di sa ou gen pou peye pou sa ou fè a!
41 And it came to pass when he returned him this answer, he and all the kings with him were drinking in tents: and he said to his servants, Form a trench. And they made a trench against the city.
Pwofèt la prese wete moso twal ki te bouche figi l' la. Lamenm wa a rekonèt se yonn nan pwofèt yo.
42 And, behold, a prophet came to Achaab king of Israel, and said, Thus says the Lord, Hast you seen this great multitude? behold, I give it this day into your hands; and you shall know that I [am] the Lord.
Pwofèt la di wa a: -Men mesaj Seyè a voye di ou: Poutèt ou kite moun mwen te bay lòd pou yo touye a chape, se ou menm ki pral peye pou li. Ou pral mouri. Se lame ou ki pral peye pou lame pa l'. Yo pral mouri.
43 And Achaab said, Whereby? And he said, Thus says the Lord, by the young men of the heads of the districts. And Achaab said, Who shall begin the battle? and he said, You.
Se konsa, wa peyi Izrayèl la tounen lakay li lavil Samari, li te boulvèse, men li byen mare.
