2 Samuel 4
1 And Isboseth the son of Saul heard that Abner was slain in Hebron: and his hands were weakened, and all Israel was 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 Now the son of Saul had two men captains of his bands, the name of the one was Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Remmon a Berothite of the children of Benjamin: for Beroth also was reckoned in 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 And the Berothites fled into Gethaim, and were sojourners there until that time.
depi lè moun Bewòt yo te kouri kite lavil la pou y' al lavil Gitayim, kote y'ap viv jouk koulye a.
4 And Jonathan the son of Saul bad a son that was lame of his feet: for he was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan from Jezrahel. And his nurse took him up and fled: and as she made haste to flee, he fell and became lame: and his name was Miphiboseth.
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 the sons of Remmon the Berothite, Rechab and Baana coming, went into the house of Isboseth in the heat of the day: and he was sleeping upon his bed at noon. And the doorkeeper of the house, who was cleansing wheat, was fallen asleep.
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 they entered into the house secretly taking ears of corn, and Rechab and Baana his brother stabbed him in the groin, and fled away.
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 For when they came into the house, be was sleeping upon his bed in a parlour, and they struck him and killed him: and taking away his head they went off by the way of the wilderness, walking 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 brought the head of Isboseth to David to Hebron: and they said to the king: Behold the head of Isboseth the son of Saul thy enemy who sought thy life: and the Lord hath revenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed.
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 But David answered Rechab, and Baana his brother, the sons of Remmon the Berothite, and said to them: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress,
David reponn yo: -Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a ki delivre m' nan tout malè,
10 The man that told me, and said: Saul is dead, who thought he brought good tidings, I apprehended, and slew him in Siceleg, who should have been rewarded 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 now when wicked men have slain an innocent man in his own house, upon his bed, shall I not require his blood at your hand, and take you away 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 commanded his servants and they slew them: and cutting off their hands and feet, hanged them up over the pool in Hebron: but the head of Isboseth they took and buried in the sepulchre of Abner 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.
