2 Samuel 11
1 In the spring, at the time of year when kings go out to war, David sent out Joab and his officers and the whole Israelite army on an attack. They massacred the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. However, David remained behind in Jerusalem.
Alò, li te fèt pandan prentan an, lè ke wa yo konn sòti batay, ke David te voye Joab, ansanm avèk sèvitè li yo ak tout Israël. Yo te detwi fis a Ammon yo e yo te fè syèj nan Rabba, men David te rete Jérusalem.
2 Late one afternoon, David got up from taking a nap and was walking on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing—a very beautiful woman.
Epi lè lannwit te vin rive, David te leve nan kabann li. Li te mache antoure twati kay wa a, soti nan twati a, li te wè yon fanm ki t ap benyen. Epi fanm nan te byen bèl nan aparans li.
3 David sent someone to find out about the woman. He was told, “It's Bathsheba, daughter of Eliam, and wife of Uriah the Hittite.”
Konsa, David te voye mande konsèy sou fanm sa a. Epi youn te di: “Èske sa se pa Bath-Schéba, fis a Éliam nan, fanm a Urie a, Itit la?”
4 David sent messengers to fetch her. When she came to him, he had sex with her. (Now she had just purified herself from having her period.) Afterwards she went back home.
David te voye mesaje pran li. Lè li te parèt kote li, li te kouche avèk li ( paske li te fin pirifye tèt li de salte a). Epi li te retounen lakay li.
5 Bathsheba became pregnant and sent a message to David to tell him, “I'm pregnant.”
Fanm nan te vin ansent. Li te voye di David: “Mwen ansent.”
6 So David sent a message to Joab, telling him, “Send Uriah the Hittite to me.” Joab sent him to David.
Konsa, David te voye kote Joab. Li te di: “Voye ban mwen Urie, Itit la.” Konsa, Joab te voye Urie kote David.
7 When Uriah came to see him, David asked him how Joab was doing, and how the army was doing, and how the war was going.
Lè Urie te vin kote li, David te mande pa sikonstans a Joab avèk tout pèp la ak jan lagè a te mache a.
8 Then David told Uriah, “Go home now and have a rest.” Uriah left the palace, and the king sent him a gift after he'd gone.
Alò, David te di a Urie: “Desann lakay ou pou lave pye ou.” Epi Urie te desann sòti lakay wa, a e yon kado soti nan men wa a te voye ba li.
9 But Uriah didn't go home. He slept in the guardroom at the palace entrance with all the king's guards.
Men Urie te dòmi kote pòt lakay wa a avèk tout sèvitè a mèt li yo. Li pa t desann lakay li.
10 David was told, “Uriah didn't go home,” so he asked Uriah, “Haven't you just got back from being away? Why didn't you go home?”
Alò, lè yo te di David: “Urie pa t desann lakay li,” David te di a Urie: “Èske ou pa t fenk fin fè yon vwayaj? Poukisa konsa ou pa t desann lakay ou?”
11 Uriah answered, “The Ark and the armies of Israel and Judah are living in tents, and my master Joab and his men are camped out in the open. How can I go home and eat and drink and sleep with my wife? On my life I won't do such a thing!”
Urie te di a David: “Lach la menm avèk Israël avèk Juda ap rete nan tant yo; epi mèt mwen, Joab avèk sèvitè a mèt mwen yo ap fè kan nan chan louvri. Konsa, kijan mwen kapab ale lakay mwen pou manje bwè e kouche avèk madanm mwen? Pa lavi ou ak lavi nanm ou menm, mwen p ap fè bagay sa a.”
12 David told him, “Stay here today, and tomorrow I'll send you back.” So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem that day, and the next.
Alò, David te di a Urie: “Rete isit la jodi a tou e demen mwen va kite ou ale.” Konsa, Urie te rete Jérusalem nan jou sa a ak pwochen jou a.
13 David invited Uriah to dinner. Uriah ate and drank with him, and David got Uriah drunk. But in the evening he went to sleep on his mat with the king's guards, and didn't go home.
Alò David te rele li, li te manje bwè devan li e li te fè li sou. Epi nan aswè, li te sòti pou kouche sou kabann li avèk sèvitè a mèt li yo, men li pa t desann lakay li.
14 In the morning David wrote Joab a letter, and gave it to Uriah to take to him.
Alò, nan maten, David te ekri yon lèt a Joab pou te voye li nan men Urie.
15 In the letter, David told Joab, “Put Uriah right in the front where the fighting is worst, and then pull back behind him so that he'll be attacked and killed.”
Li te ekri nan lèt la, e te di: “Mete Urie pa devan nan chan kote batay la pi rèd la e retounen kite li, pou l kab tonbe mouri.”
16 As Joab besieged the town, he made Uriah take a place where he knew the strongest enemy men would be fighting.
Konsa, se te pandan Joab t ap veye vil la, ke li te mete Urie nan plas kote li te konnen lènmi an te gen mesye vanyan yo.
17 When the town's defenders came out and attacked Joab, some of David's men were killed, including Uriah the Hittite.
Mesye vil yo te sòti goumen kont Joab, kèk nan moun pami sèvitè a David yo te tonbe. Epi Urie, Itit la te mouri tou.
18 Joab sent David a full report about the battle.
Alò, Joab te voye bay rapò a David selon tout evenman lagè a.
19 He ordered the messenger, saying, “When you've finished telling the king all about the battle,
Li te kòmande mesaje a, e te di: “Lè ou fin pale tout afè lagè yo a wa a,
20 if the king's gets angry and asks you, ‘Why did you get so near to the town in the attack? Didn't you know they would shoot arrows from the wall?
epi li vin rive ke kòlè leve nan wa a e li di ou: ‘Poukisa ou te pwoche pre vil la konsa pou goumen? Èske ou pa t konnen ke yo ta tire soti sou miray la?
21 Who killed Abimelech, son of Jerub-Besheth? Wasn't it a woman who dropped a millstone on him from the wall, killing him there in Thebez? Why on earth did you get so close to the wall?’ Just tell him, ‘In addition, your officer Uriah the Hittite was killed.’”
Se kilès ki te frape Abimélec, fis a Jerubbéscheth la? Èske se pa yon fanm ki te jete yon wòch moulen sou li soti nan miray ki fè l mouri Thébets la? Poukisa ou te pwoche pre miray la?’ epi ou va di: ‘Sèvitè ou a Urie, Itit la, te mouri tou.’”
22 The messenger left, and when he arrived he told David everything Joab had directed him to say.
Konsa, mesaje a te pati pou te vin bay rapò a David, de tout sa ke Joab te voye li pale yo.
23 The messenger explained to David, “The defenders were stronger than us, and they came out at us in the open, but we forced them back to the entrance of the town gate.
Mesaje a te di a David: “Mesye yo te genyen sou nou e te sòti kont nou nan chan an; men nou te peze yo rèd jis rive nan antre pòtay la.
24 Their archers shot at us from the wall, and killed some of the king's men. Your officer Uriah the Hittite was also killed.”
Anplis, mesye banza yo te tire sou sèvitè ou yo soti nan miray la. Konsa, kèk nan sèvitè ou yo mouri, e sèvitè ou a, Urie, Etyen an mouri osi.”
25 Then David said to the messenger, “Tell Joab this: ‘Don't be upset about this, for the sword destroys people at random. Press on with your attack against the town and conquer it.’ Encourage him by telling him this.”
Alò David te di a mesaje a: “Konsa ou va pale Joab, ‘Pa kite bagay sa a fè ou mal, paske nepe a devore youn menm jan ke yon lòt. Fè batay ou kont vil la vin pi rèd pou boulvèse li’. Se konsa pou ankouraje li.”
26 When Uriah's wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him.
Alò, lè madanm a Urie te tande ke Urie, mari li a, te mouri, li te kriye pou mari li.
27 Once the period of mourning was over, David sent for her to be brought to his palace, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But what David had done was evil in the Lord's sight.
Lè tan kriye a te fini, David te voye mennen li lakay li, li te devni madanm li, e li te fè yon fis pou li. Men bagay ke David te fè a te mal nan zye SENYÈ a.
