1 Kings 1
1 Now when King Dauid was olde, and striken in yeeres, they couered him with clothes, but no heate came vnto him.
David te fin vye granmoun, li te gen gwo laj sou tèt li. Menm lè yo te kouvri l' byen kouvri ak anpil rad sou li, li te santi frèt toujou.
2 Wherefore his seruants saide vnto him, Let there be sought for my lord ye King a yong virgin, and let her stand before the king, and cherish him: and let her lie in thy bosome, that my lord the King may get heate.
Lè sa a, moun pa l' yo di l': -Monwa, nou pral chache yon jenn fi ki tifi toujou pou rete avè ou, pou pran swen ou. L'a kouche kole avè ou pou chofe ou.
3 So they sought for a faire young maide thoroughout all the coastes of Israel, and founde one Abishag a Shunamite, and brought her to the king.
Yo mete chache yon bèl jenn fi nan tout peyi Izrayèl la. Yo jwenn yon jenn fi nan ti bouk Chounam lan. Li te rele Abichag. Yo mennen l' bay wa a.
4 And the maid was exceeding faire, and cherished the king, and ministred to him, but the King knew her not.
Se te yon bèl bèl fi. Li pran swen wa a, li sèvi l'. Men, wa a pa janm kouche avè l'.
5 Then Adoniiah the sonne of Haggith exalted himselfe, saying, I will be king. And he gate him charets and horsemen, and fiftie men to run before him.
Lè sa a, Adonija, pitit gason David te fè ak Agit la, pran pòz otorite li. Li t'ap di: -Se mwen menm ki pou wa. Li chache cha lagè, chwal ak yon eskòt senkant moun ki t'ap kouri devan l' lè li sou cha pa l'.
6 And his father would not displease him from his childehood, to say, Why hast thou done so? And hee was a very goodly man, and his mother bare him next after Absalom.
Men, depi li piti, papa a te gate l', li toujou kite l' fè sa li vle. Adonija te fèt apre Absalon. Li te yon bèl gason tou.
7 And he tooke counsel of Ioab the sonne of Zeruiah, and of Abiathar the Priest: and they helped forward Adoniiah.
Adonija pale avèk Joab, pitit gason Sewouya a, ansanm ak Abyata, prèt la. De mesye sa yo dakò pou mete tèt ansanm avè l'.
8 But Zadok the Priest, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, and Nathan the Prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the men of might, which were with Dauid, were not with Adoniiah.
Men Zadòk, prèt la, Benaja, pitit gason Jeojada a, pwofèt Natan, Chimeyi, Reyi ak vanyan sòlda David yo pa te patizan Adonija.
9 Then Adoniiah sacrificed sheepe and oxen, and fat cattel by the stone of Zoheleth, which is by En-rogel, and called all his brethren the kings sonnes, and al the men of Iudah ye Kings seruants,
Yon jou, Adonija fè yon gwo sèvis pou Bondye bò Wòch Zoelèt la toupre sous Anwogèl. Li touye mouton, bèf ak ti towo bèf chatre sou lotèl la. Li envite tout lòt frè l' yo, pitit gason David yo, ansanm ak tout gwo chèf nan peyi Jida ki t'ap travay ak papa l'.
10 But Nathan the Prophet, and Benaiah, and the mightie men, and Salomon his brother hee called not.
Men, li pa t' envite ni Natan, ni Benaja, ni vanyan sòlda David yo, ni Salomon, frè menm papa avè l' la.
11 Wherefore Nathan spake vnto Bath-sheba the mother of Salomon, saying, Hast thou not heard, that Adoniiah ye sonne of Haggith doeth reigne, and Dauid our lord knoweth it not?
Lè sa a, Natan al jwenn Batcheba, manman Salomon, li di l' konsa: -Ou pa tande jan Adonija, pitit gason Agit la, gen tan pran pòz wa li? Men, wa David pa konn anyen.
12 Now therefore come, and I will now giue thee counsell, howe to saue thine owne life, and the life of thy sonne Salomon.
Koulye a, mwen pral ba ou yon konsèy si ou vle sove lavi ou ansanm ak lavi Salomon, pitit gason ou lan.
13 Go, and get thee in vnto King Dauid, and say vnto him, Didest not thou, my lorde, O King, sweare vnto thine handmaide, saying, Assuredly Salomon thy sonne shall reigne after me, and he shall sit vpon my throne? why is then Adoniiah King?
Ou prale jwenn wa a, w'ap di l' konsa: Monwa, se pa ou menm ki te fè m' sèman se Salomon, pitit gason m' lan, ki t'ap wa apre ou, se li menm ki tapral chita sou fotèy la nan plas ou? Kijan fè se Adonija ki wa koulye a?
14 Behold, while thou yet talkest there with the King, I also will come in after thee, and confirme thy wordes.
Pandan w'ap pale ak wa a konsa, mwen menm m'ap antre dèyè ou, m'ap di wa a menm bagay la tou.
15 So Bath-sheba went in vnto the King into the chamber, and the King was verie olde, and Abishag the Shunammite ministred vnto ye King.
Se konsa, Batcheba al jwenn wa a nan chanm li. Wa a te fin granmoun. Se Abichag, moun lavil Chounam lan, ki t'ap pran swen li.
16 And Bath-sheba bowed and made obeisance vnto the King. And the King saide, What is thy matter?
Batcheba tonbe ajenou devan wa a, li bese tèt li jouk atè. Wa a mande l': -Kisa ou vle?
17 And shee answered him, My lorde, thou swarest by the Lord thy God vnto thine handmaide, saying, Assuredly Salomon thy sonne shall reigne after me, and he shall sit vpon my throne.
Li reponn, li di konsa: -Monwa, ou te fè m' sèman devan Seyè a, Bondye ou la, se Salomon, pitit gason m' lan, ki t'ap wa apre ou, se li menm ki t'ap chita sou fotèy la nan plas ou.
18 And beholde, nowe is Adoniiah king, and now, my lord, O King, thou knowest it not.
Men koulye a, Adonija gen tan wa sou nou la a. Ou menm, monwa, ou pa konn sa.
19 And he hath offred many oxen, and fatte cattel, and sheepe, and hath called all the sonnes of the King, and Abiathar the Priest, and Ioab the captaine of the hoste: but Salomon thy seruant hath he not bidden.
Li fè sèvis pou Bondye, li touye yon pakèt mouton, bèf, ti towo chatre. Li envite tout lòt pitit gason ou yo, Abyata, prèt la, Joab, kòmandan lame a. Men, li pa envite Salomon, pitit gason ou lan.
20 And thou, my lorde, O King, knowest that the eyes of all Israel are on thee, that thou shouldest tell them, who shoulde sit on the throne of my lord the King after him.
Koulye a, monwa, je tout pèp Izrayèl la sou ou, y'ap tann ou di yo ki moun ki pral chita sou fotèy la apre ou.
21 For els when my lord the King shall sleepe with his fathers, I and my sonne Salomon shalbe reputed vile.
Si ou pa fè sa, monwa, lè w'a mouri, yo pral pran ni mwen, ni Salomon, pitit mwen an, y'ap touye nou pou move je.
22 And lo, while she yet talked with the King, Nathan also the Prophet came in.
Batcheba pa t' ankò fin pale ak wa a lè pwofèt Natan rive nan palè a.
23 And they tolde the King, saying, Beholde, Nathan the Prophet. And when he was come in to the King, hee made obeisance before the King vpon his face to the ground.
Yo vin di wa a men pwofèt Natan la. Natan antre, li tonbe ajenou, li bese tèt li jouk atè devan wa a.
24 And Nathan saide, My lorde, O King, hast thou said, Adoniiah shall reigne after mee, and he shall sit vpon my throne?
Lèfini, li di konsa: -Monwa, mèt mwen, èske se ou menm ki di se Adonija ki pou wa apre ou, se li ki pou chita sou fotèy la nan plas ou?
25 For hee is gone downe this day, and hath slaine many oxen, and fat cattel, and sheepe, and hath called al the Kings sonnes, and the captaines of the hoste, and Abiathar the Priest: and behold, they eate and drinke before him, and say, God saue King Adoniiah.
Paske jòdi a l' ale, li fè sèvis pou Bondye, li touye yon pakèt bèf, ti towo chatre ak mouton. Li envite tout lòt pitit gason ou yo, tout gwo chèf lame a ansanm ak Abyata, prèt la. Koulye a y'ap manje, y'ap bwè avè l', y'ap di: Viv wa Adonija!
26 But me thy seruant, and Zadok the Priest, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, and thy seruant Salomon hath he not called.
Men, monwa, li pa envite ni mwen, ni Zadòk, prèt la, ni Benaja, pitit Jeojada a, ni Salomon, pitit gason ou lan.
27 Is this thing done by my lord the King, and thou hast not shewed it vnto thy seruant, who should sitte on the throne of my lorde the King after him?
Eske se monwa ki bay lòd fè sa san ou pa fè moun k'ap sèvi ou yo konnen ki moun ki pral chita sou fotèy la nan plas ou?
28 Then King Dauid answered, and saide, Call me Bath-sheba. And shee came into ye Kings presence, and stoode before the King.
Wa David reponn, li di: -Rele Batcheba pou mwen, tanpri! Batcheba antre ankò, li kanpe devan wa a.
29 And the King sware, saying, As the Lord liueth, who hath redeemed my soule out of all aduersitie,
Lè sa a, wa a fè sèman, li di konsa: -Mwen fè sèman nan non Seyè ki vivan an, li menm ki te delivre m' anba tout tray mwen yo.
30 That as I sware vnto thee by the Lord God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Salomon thy sonne shall reigne after me, and hee shall sit vpon my throne in my place, so will I certainely doe this day.
Sa m' te pwomèt ou pou m' fè nan non Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, m'ap fè l' jòdi a. Se Salomon, pitit gason ou lan, k'ap chita sou fotèy la nan plas mwen, se li menm k'ap gouvènen apre mwen.
31 Then Bath-sheba bowed her face to the earth, and did reuerence vnto the King, and said, God saue my lord King Dauid for euer.
Batcheba tonbe ajenou devan wa a, li bese tèt li byen ba jouk atè, li di: -Se pou yo toujou fè lwanj wa David, mèt mwen!
32 And King Dauid saide, Call mee Zadok the Priest, and Nathan the Prophet, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada. And they came before the King.
Lè sa a, wa David voye chache Zadòk, prèt la, Natan pwofèt la, ak Benaja, pitit gason Jeojada a. Lè yo parèt devan wa a,
33 Then the King said vnto them, Take with you the seruants of your lorde, and cause Salomon my sonne to ride vpon mine owne mule, and carie him downe to Gihon.
wa a di yo konsa: -Pran tout chèf gouvènman m' yo. Fè Salomon, pitit gason m' lan, moute sou milèt pa m' lan. Nou tout va desann avè l' bò sous Giyon an.
34 And let Zadok the Priest and Nathan the Prophet anoint him there King ouer Israel, and blowe ye the trumpet, and say, God saue king Salomon.
Lè n'a rive la, Zadòk, prèt la, ak Natan, pwofèt la, va vide lwil sou tèt li, y'a mete l' apa pou l' sèvi wa pèp Izrayèl la. Apre sa, n'a fè kònen twonpèt, epi n'a rele: Viv wa Salomon!
35 Then come vp after him, that hee may come and sit vpon my throne: and hee shall bee King in my steade: for I haue appointed him to be prince ouer Israel and ouer Iudah.
Lèfini, n'a pran mache dèyè l', n'a tounen isit la. Salomon va vin chita sou fotèy mwen an. L'a pran plas mwen, paske se li menm mwen chwazi pou gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la ansanm ak pèp Jida a.
36 Then Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada answered the King, and said, So be it, and the Lord God of my lord the King ratifie it.
Benaja, pitit gason Jeojada a, reponn wa a: -Se sa menm! Se Seyè a, Bondye monwa a menm, ki pale nan bouch ou!
37 As the Lord hath bene with my lorde the King, so be he with Salomon, and exalt his throne aboue the throne of my lorde king Dauid.
Menm jan Seyè a te toujou kanpe la avè monwa, se pou li toujou kanpe la avèk Salomon tou. Se pou gouvènman li an pi byen chita toujou pase gouvènman wa David, mèt mwen.
38 So Zadok the Priest, and Nathan the Prophet, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites went downe and caused Salomon to ride vpon king Dauids mule, and brought him to Gihon.
Zadòk, prèt la, Natan, pwofèt la, ak Benaja, pitit Jeojada a, ansanm ak keretyen yo ak peletyen yo ale, yo fè Salomon moute sou milèt wa David la, yo mennen l' bò sous Giyon an.
39 And Zadok the Priest tooke an horne of oyle out of the Tabernacle, and anointed Salomon: and they blewe the trumpet, and all the people said, God saue king Salomon.
Zadòk, prèt la, pran kòn lwil ki te nan Tant Randevou a, li vide ti gout sou tèt Salomon. Yo kònen twonpèt, tout pèp la pran rele: Viv wa Salomon!
40 And all the people came vp after him, and the people piped with pipes, and reioyced with great ioye, so that the earth rang with the sound of them.
Apre sa, yo tout t'ap mache dèyè li, yo tounen lavil Jerizalèm. Yo t'ap jwe fif, yo t'ap danse. Sitèlman yo t'ap fè bri ou ta di tè a t'ap tranble anba pye yo.
41 And Adoniiah and all the ghestes that were with him, heard it: (and they had made an ende of eating) and when Ioab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, What meaneth this noise and vprore in the citie?
Adonija te fin manje ansanm ak tout envite l' yo lè yo tande bri a. Lè Joab tande twonpèt la, li mande: -Pouki tout bri sa a nan lavil la?
42 And as he yet spake, beholde, Ionathan the sonne of Abiathar the Priest came: and Adoniiah said, Come in: for thou art a worthie man, and bringest good tidings.
Li pa t' ankò fèmen bouch li, Jonatan, pitit Abyata prèt la, rive. Adonija di l' konsa: -Antre non, monchè! Ou se moun debyen, se bon nouvèl ase pou ou pote!
43 And Ionathan answered, and said to Adoniiah, Verely our lord King Dauid hath made Salomon King.
Jonatan reponn, li di Adonija konsa: -Nouvèl yo pa bon menm. Wa David, chèf nou an, fè Salomon wa.
44 And the King hath sent with him Zadok the Priest, and Nathan the Prophet, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and they haue caused him to ride vpon the Kings mule.
Li voye chache Zadòk, prèt la, Natan, pwofèt la, Benaja, pitit Jeojada a, ansanm ak keretyen yo ak peletyen yo, li fè yo ale ak Salomon. Yo menm, yo fè Salomon moute sou milèt wa a.
45 And Zadok the Priest, and Nathan ye Prophet haue anointed him King in Gihon: and they are gone vp from thence with ioy, and the citie is moued: this is the noise that ye haue heard.
Zadòk, prèt la, ak Natan, pwofèt la, vide lwil sou tèt li bò sous Giyon an, yo mete l' apa pou l' sèvi wa. Lèfini, yo tounen lavil la, y'ap rele tèlman yo kontan. Tout lavil la tèt anba. Se bri sa a nou tande a.
46 And Salomon also sitteth on the throne of the kingdome.
Lèfini, Salomon moute chita sou fotèy wa a.
47 And moreouer the Kings seruantes came to blesse our lord King Dauid, saying, God make the name of Salomon more famous then thy name, and exalt his throne aboue thy throne: therefore the King worshipped vpon the bed.
Tout moun k'ap travay nan gouvènman wa David yo vin fè wa David, chèf nou an, konpliman. Yo di: Se pou Bondye ou la fè Salomon yon pi gwo wa pase ou. Se pou gouvènman li an pi chita toujou pase pa ou la! Lèfini, wa David bese byen ba sou kabann li pou li adore Bondye.
48 And thus sayd the King also, Blessed bee the Lord God of Israel, who hath made one to sit on my throne this day, euen in my sight.
Li di: Lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, li menm ki penmèt pou jòdi a se yonn nan pitit mwen yo ki chita sou fotèy la nan plas mwen. Lèfini, li kite m' wè sa anvan m' mouri.
49 Then all the ghestes that were with Adonijah, were afraide, and rose vp, and went euery man his way.
Lè sa a, tout envite Adonija yo pran tranble. Yo tout leve, y' al fè wout yo, chak moun bò pa yo.
50 And Adonijah fearing the presence of Salomon, arose and went, and tooke holde on the hornes of the altar.
Adonija menm bò pa l' te sitèlman pè pou Salomon pa touye l', li leve, li kouri ale nan Tant Randevou a, li kenbe kòn lotèl la.
51 And one tolde Salomon, saying, Beholde, Adonijah doeth feare King Salomon: for lo, he hath caught holde on the hornes of the altar, saying, Let King Salomon sweare vnto me this day, that he will not slay his seruant with the sword.
Y' al di wa Salomon: -Adonija sitèlman pè pou monwa pa touye l', l' al kache bò lotèl la. Li di li vle pou wa Salomon fè l' sèman jòdi a menm li p'ap fè yo touye l'.
52 Then Salomon sayd, If he will shewe him selfe a worthy man, there shall not an heare of him fall to the earth, but if wickednes be found in him, he shall dye.
Salomon reponn: -Si msye aji tankou moun debyen, yon grenn cheve nan tèt li p'ap tonbe. Men, si li fè sa li pa t' dwe fè, l'ap mouri.
53 Then King Salomon sent, and they brought him from the altar, and he came and did obeisance vnto King Salomon. And Salomon sayde vnto him, Go to thine house.
Salomon voye chache Adonija soti bò lotèl la. Yo fè l' desann lotèl la. Li vin bese byen ba devan wa Salomon. Wa a di l' konsa: -Ou mèt al lakay ou.
