1 Samuel 28
1 And it came to pass in those days that the Philistines gathered together their armies for warfare to fight against Israel. And Achish said to David, Know thou assuredly that thou shalt go out with me to the camp, thou and thy men.
Alò, li te vin rive nan jou sa yo ke Filisten yo te rasanble kan lame pa yo pou fè lagè, pou goumen kont Israël. Epi Akisch te di a David: “Konnen byensi ke ou va sòti avè m nan kan an, ou menm avèk mesye pa ou yo.”
2 And David said to Achish, Thereby thou shalt know what thy servant can do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of my person for ever.
David te di a Akisch: “Se bon, ou va vin konprann sa ke sèvitè ou kapab fè.” Akisch te reponn a David: “Se bon, mwen va fè ou gad pèsonèl mwen pou tout lavi ou.”
3 (Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and they had buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away the necromancers and the soothsayers out of the land.)
Nan lè sa a Samuel te fin mouri, tout Israël te deja kriye pou li e te antere l Ramah, pwòp vil pa li. Epi Saül te fin retire nan peyi a tout kalite moun sila ki te konn rele mò yo ak divinò yo.
4 And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and encamped in Shunem; and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they encamped in Gilboa.
Konsa, Filisten yo te rasanble ansanm e te vin fè kan nan Sunem. Epi Saül te rasanble tout Israël ansanm pou yo te fè kan nan Guilboa.
5 And when Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart greatly trembled.
Lè Saül te wè kan Filisten yo, li te pè e kè li te tranble anpil.
6 And Saul inquired of Jehovah; but Jehovah did not answer him, either by dreams, or by Urim, or by prophets.
Lè Saül te fè demann SENYÈ a, SENYÈ a pa t reponn li, ni nan rèv, ni avèk Orim, ni pa pwofèt yo.
7 Then said Saul to his servants, Seek me a woman that has a spirit of Python, that I may go to her and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman who has a spirit of Python at En-dor.
Alò, Saül te pale sèvitè li yo: “Chache pou mwen yon fanm ki konn pale ak mò, pou m kab ale kote li pou mande li kèk bagay.” Sèvitè li yo te di li: “Gade byen, gen yon fanm ki konn pale ak mò nan En-Dor.”
8 And Saul disguised himself, and put on other garments, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night; and he said, I pray thee, divine to me by the spirit of Python, and bring me [him] up whom I shall name to thee.
Alò, Saül te kache idantite li avèk lòt rad e te desann, li menm avèk de lòt mesye avèk li. Yo te vin kote fanm nan pandan nwit lan. Li te di: “Evoke fè monte pou mwen lespri la, souple, e mennen monte non moun sila ke m va nonmen pou ou a.”
9 And the woman said to him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul has done, how he has cut off the necromancers and the soothsayers out of the land; and why layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
Men fanm nan te di li: “Gade byen, ou konnen sa ke Saül te fè a, jan li te retire sila ki evoke mò avèk divinò nan peyi a. Alò poukisa w ap mete yon pèlen pou lavi mwen pou ou kab fè m mouri?”
10 And Saul swore unto her by Jehovah, saying, [As] Jehovah liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
Saul te fè ve a li ke: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, p ap gen pinisyon k ap rive ou pou afè sila a.”
11 Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
Alò, fanm nan te di: “Se kilès ke m ap fè monte pou ou a?” Epi li te di: “Mennen monte Samuel pou mwen.”
12 And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice; and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? Even thou art Saul.
Lè fanm nan te wè Samuel, li te kriye fò avèk yon gwo vwa; epi fanm nan te pale avèk Saül e te di: “Poukisa ou te twonpe mwen? Paske se Saül ke ou ye.”
13 And the king said to her, Be not afraid; but what didst thou see? And the woman said to Saul, I saw a god ascending out of the earth.
Wa a te di li: “Pa pè; men se kisa ou wè?” Epi fanm nan te di Saül: “Mwen wè yon èt diven k ap monte sòti sou latè.”
14 And he said to her, What is his form? And she said, An old man comes up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul knew that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself.
Li te di li: “Se ak kilès ke li sanble?” Epi li te di: “Yon granmoun k ap monte e li vlope nan yon manto.” Epi Saül te konnen ke se te Samuel. Li te bese avèk figi li atè pou te rann omaj.
15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul said, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answers me no more, neither by prophets nor by dreams; therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known to me what I shall do.
Alò, Samuel te di a Saül: “Poukisa ou twouble m e mennen m monte?” Saül te reponn: “Mwen nan gwo pwoblèm anpil; paske Filisten yo ap fè lagè kont mwen, Bondye te kite mwen e Li pa reponn mwen ankò, ni pa pwofèt yo, ni nan rèv. Pou sa, mwen te rele ou, pou ou kapab fè m konnen kisa pou m fè.”
16 And Samuel said, Why then dost thou inquire of me, seeing Jehovah is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy?
Samuel te di: “Poukisa konsa ou vin mande mwen, akoz SENYÈ a te kite ou e te devni lènmi ou?
17 And Jehovah has done for himself as he spoke by me; and Jehovah has rent the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to thy neighbour, to David.
SENYÈ a gen tan fè selon sa Li te pale nan mwen an. SENYÈ a fin chire wayòm nan soti nan men ou, e Li te bay li a vwazen ou an, a David menm.
18 Because thou didst not hearken to the voice of Jehovah, and didst not execute his fierce anger upon Amalek, therefore has Jehovah done this thing to thee this day.
Kòmsi ou pa t obeyi SENYÈ a, e ou pa t fè gwo kòlè Li vin tonbe sou Amalek, konsa SENYÈ a te fè ou bagay sa a nan jou sa a.
19 And Jehovah will also give Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines; and to-morrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me; the army of Israel also will Jehovah give into the hand of the Philistines.
Anplis SENYÈ a va, osi, bay Israël ansanm avèk ou menm nan men Filisten yo. Konsa, demen ou menm avèk fis ou yo va avèk mwen. Anverite, SENYÈ a va fè bay lame Israël la nan men a Filisten yo!”
20 And Saul fell straightway his full length on the earth, and was sore afraid because of the words of Samuel; and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all the day nor all the night.
Alò, Saül, lapoula, te tonbe atè nèt. Li te plen laperèz akoz pawòl a Samuel yo. Ni pa t gen fòs nan li, paske li pa t manje manje nan tout jou sa a, ni nan nwit lan.
21 And the woman came to Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said to him, Behold, thy bondmaid has hearkened to thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened to thy words which thou spokest to me.
Fanm nan te rive bò kote Saül. Li te wè ke li te tèlman gen krent jiskaske li te sezi, e li te di li: “Gade byen, sèvant ou te obeyi a ou menm e mwen te pran lavi mwen nan men m pou te koute pawòl ke ou te pale mwen yo.
22 And now, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy bondmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee; and eat, that thou mayest have strength when thou goest on thy way.
Koulye a, pou sa, souple koute vwa sèvant ou an e kite mwen mete yon mòso pen devan ou. Manje pou ou kapab gen fòs lè ou pran chemen an.”
23 But he refused and said, I will not eat. Then his servants, and the woman also, compelled him, and he hearkened to their voice; and he arose from the earth and sat on the bed.
Men li te refize. Li te di: “Mwen p ap manje.” Men sèvitè li yo te ankouraje li e li te koute yo. Konsa, li te leve sou tè a pou te chita sou kabann nan.
24 And the woman had a fat calf in the house; and she hasted and killed it, and took flour, and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread thereof;
Fanm nan te gen yon jenn bèf gra nan kay la. Byen vit li te kòche li, li te pran farin, li te frape l fè bòl, e li te kwit li fè pen san ledven.
25 and she brought it near before Saul, and before his servants, and they ate. And they rose up and went away that night.
Li te mennen li devan Saül avèk sèvitè li yo e yo te manje. Apre yo te leve sòti menm nwit lan.
