Kings IV 7
1 And Elisaie said, Hear you the word of the Lord; Thus says the Lord, As at this time, to-morrow a measure of fine flour [shall be sold] for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gates of Samaria.
Epi Élisée te di: “Koute pawòl SENYÈ a. Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Demen vè lè sa a, yon mezi farin fen va vann pou yon sik, e de mezi lòj pou yon sik nan pòtay Samarie a.’”
2 And the officer on whose hand the king rested, answered Elisaie, and said, Behold, [if] the Lord shall make flood-gates in heaven, might this thing be? and Elisaie said, Behold, you shall see with your eyes, but shall not eat thereof.
Ofisye wayal la sou men a sila wa a te apiye a te reponn nonm Bondye a. Li te di: “Gade byen, menm si SENYÈ a ta fè fenèt nan syèl la, èske bagay sa a ta kab rive?” Konsa, Élisée te reponn: “Gade byen, ou va wè l ak pwòp zye pa w, men ou p ap manje ladann.”
3 And there were four leprous men by the gate of the city: and one said to his neighbour, Why sit we here until we die?
Alò, te genyen kat mesye lalèp nan antre pòtay la. Yo te di youn ak lòt: “Poukisa n ap chita la jiskaske nou mouri?
4 If we should say, Let us go into the city, then [there is] famine in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit here, then we shall die. Now then come, and let us fall upon the camp of the Syrians: if they should take us alive, then we shall live; and if they should put us to death, then we shall [only] die.
Si nou di: ‘N ap antre nan vil la’, alò grangou nan vil la, nou va mouri la. Epi si nou chita isit la, nou va mouri tou. Pou sa, vini, annou janbe lòtbò nan kan Siryen yo. Si yo lese nou viv, nou va viv; epi si yo touye nou, nou p ap gen plis pase mouri.”
5 And they rose up while it was yet night, to go into the camp of Syria; and they came into a part of the camp of Syria, and behold, there [was] no man there.
Konsa, yo te leve avan l fènwa pou ale nan kan Siryen yo, epi gade byen, pa t gen moun la.
6 For the Lord had made the army of Syria to hear a sound of chariots, and a sound of horses, [even] the sound of a great host: and [each] man said to his fellow, Now has the king of Israel hired against us the kings of the Chettites, and the kings of Egypt, to come against us.
Paske SENYÈ a te fè lame Siryen an tande bwi a cha yo avèk bwi cheval yo, son a yon gwo lame, jiskaske yo te di youn ak lòt: “Men gade, wa Israël la gen tan mete an sèvis kont nou wa Etyen yo avèk wa Ejipsyen yo pou yo vini sou nou.”
7 And they arose and fled while it was yet dark, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses in the camp, as they were, and fled for their lives.
Pou sa, yo te leve kouri pandan tenèb la t ap pwoche e te kite tant yo avèk cheval yo avèk bourik yo ak kan an, jis jan ke li te ye a pou te sove ale e sove lavi yo.
8 And these lepers entered a little way into the camp, and went into one tent, and ate and drank, and took thence silver, and gold, and raiment; and they went and returned thence, and entered into another tent, and took thence, and went and hid [the spoil].
Lè moun lalèp sa yo te rive nan landwa kan an, yo te antre nan yon tant pou te manje ak bwè e yo te pote soti la, ajan avèk lò avèk rad pou te ale sere yo. Epi yo te tounen antre nan yon lòt tant pou te pote soti la tou pou te ale sere yo.
9 And [one] man said to his neighbour, We are not doing [well] thus: this day is a day of glad tidings, and we hold our peace, and are waiting till the morning light, and shall find mischief: now them come, and let us go into [the city], and report to the house of the king.
Men konsa, yo te pale youn ak lòt: “Nou pa fè byen. Jou sa a se yon jou bòn nouvèl, men nou rete an silans. Si nou tann jis rive maten an, pinisyon va vin rive sou nou. Alò, pou sa, annou ale pale moun lakay wa a.”
10 So they went and cried towards the gate of the city, and reported to them, saying, We went into the camp of Syria, and, behold, there is not there a man, nor voice of man, only horses tied and asses, and their tents as they were.
Konsa, yo te antre e yo te rele gadyen pòtay lavil yo pou te pale yo e te di: “Nou te rive nan kan Siryen yo e vwala, pa t gen moun la, ni menm vwa a yon moun, men sèlman cheval ki te mare ak bourik mare e tant yo menm jan yo te ye.”
11 And the porters cried aloud, and reported to the house of the king within.
Gadyen pòtay yo te rele pale anndan kay wa a.
12 And the king rose up by night, and said to his servants, I will now tell you what the Syrians have done to us. They knew that we are hungry; and they have gone forth from the camp and hidden themselves in the field, saying, They will come out of the city, and we shall catch them alive, and go into the city.
Wa a te leve nan lannwit lan e li te di a sèvitè li yo: “Mwen va pale ou koulye a sa ke Siryen yo gen tan fè. Yo konnen ke nou grangou; pou sa, yo te kite kan an pou kache yo menm nan chan an. Y ap di: ‘Lè yo sòti lavil la, nou va kaptire yo vivan e antre nan vil la.’”
13 And one of his servants answered and said, Let them now take five of the horses that were left, which were left here; behold, they are the number left to all the multitude of Israel; and we will send there and see.
Youn nan sèvitè li yo te di: “Souple, kite kèk moun pran senk nan cheval ki rete lavil la. Gade byen, malgre nenpòt nan yo va menm jan ak tout rès foul moun ki rete ladann nan. Gade byen, yo tankou tout foul ki gen tan peri deja. Pou sa, annou voye gade.”
14 So they took two horsemen; and the king of Israel sent after the king of Syria, saying, Go, and see.
Konsa, yo te pran de cha avèk cheval e wa a te voye yo dèyè lame Siryen an, e te di: “Ale gade.”
15 And they went after them even to Jordan: and, behold, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their panic. and the messengers returned, and brought word to the king.
Yo te ale dèyè yo jis rive nan Jourdain an, e gade, tout chemen an te ranpli avèk rad ak ekipaj ke Siryen yo te jete nan sove ale. Alò, mesaje yo te retounen pou te pale wa a.
16 And the people went out, and plundered the camp of Syria: and a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, according to the word of the Lord, and two measures of barley for a shekel.
Konsa, pèp la te sòti e te piyaje kan Siryen an. Alò, yon mezi farin fen te vann pou yon sik e de mezi lòj pou yon sik, selon pawòl SENYÈ a.
17 And the king appointed the officer on whose hand the king leaned [to have charge] over the gate: and the people trampled on him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God [had] said, who spoke when the messenger came down to him.
Alò, wa a te chwazi menm ofisye wayal la, sou men a sila li te konn apiye a, pou pran chaj pòtay la; men pèp la te foule li anba pye nan pòtay la e li te vin mouri jis jan ke nonm Bondye a te pale a, ki t ap pale pandan wa a te vin desann kote l la.
18 So it came to pass as Elisaie had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley [shall be sold] for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel; and it shall be as at this time to-morrow in the gate of Samaria.
Li te vin rive jis jan ke nonm Bondye a te pale a wa a, lè l te di: “De mezi lòj pou yon sik e yon mezi farin fen pou yon sik, va vann demen vè lè sa a nan pòtay Samarie.”
19 And the officer answered Elisaie, and said, Behold, [if] the Lord makes flood-gates in heaven, shall this thing be? and Elisaie said, Behold, you shall see [it] with your eyes, but you shall not eat thereof.
Epi ofisye wayal la te reponn nonm Bondye a e te di: “Alò gade byen, Si SENYÈ a ta fè fenèt nan syèl la, èske yon bagay konsa ta kab rive?” Epi li te di: “Gade byen, ou va wè li avèk pwòp zye pa ou, men ou p ap manje ladann.”
20 And it was so: for the people trampled on him in the gate, and he died.
Epi se konsa sa te vin rive li, paske pèp la te foule li anba pye nan pòtay la, e li te vin mouri.
