< 1 Samuel 18 >
1 And when he had made an ende of speaking vnto Saul, the soule of Ionathan was knit with the soule of Dauid, and Ionathan loued him, as his owne soule.
Lè David fin pale ak Sayil, kè Jonatan, pitit gason Sayil la, vin louvri pou David. Li vin renmen l' tankou li renmen tèt pa li.
2 And Saul tooke him that day, and woulde not let him returne to his fathers house.
Depi jou sa a, Sayil fè David rete ak li, li pa kite l' tounen lakay papa l' ankò.
3 Then Ionathan and Dauid made a couenant: for he loued him as his owne soule.
Jonatan mare zanmi ak David pou tout tan, paske li te renmen l' tankou li te renmen tèt pa li.
4 And Ionathan put off the robe that was vpon him, and gaue it Dauid, and his garments, euen to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
Li wete gwo rad ki te sou li a, li bay David li ansanm ak tout bagay li te genyen, ata nepe li, banza li ak sentiwon l'.
5 And Dauid went out whithersoeuer Saul sent him, and behaued himselfe wisely: so that Saul set him ouer the men of warre, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Sauls seruants.
Chak fwa Sayil te voye David an misyon, kote li pase, li toujou reyisi. Se konsa Sayil moute l' grad, li fè l' chèf nan lame a. Sa te fè tout moun Sayil yo ansanm ak tout pèp la plezi.
6 When they came againe, and Dauid returned from the slaughter of the Philistim, the women came out of all cities of Israel singing and dauncing to meete king Saul, with timbrels, with instruments of ioy, and with rebeckes.
Sòlda yo t'ap tounen lakay yo. Lè sa a, David te fin touye sòlda Filisti a, li t'ap tounen lakay li tou. Yon bann medam soti nan tout lavil peyi Izrayèl la vin kontre wa Sayil. Yo t'ap chante, yo t'ap danse, yo t'ap jwe tanbouren, yo t'ap bat ògàn, yo t'ap chante pou fè kè moun kontan.
7 And the women sang by course in their play, and sayd, Saul hath slayne his thousand, and Dauid his ten thousand.
Medam yo t'ap fè fèt, yo t'ap danse, yo t'ap di: -Sayil desann mil. David desann dimil.
8 Therefore Saul was exceeding wroth, and the saying displeased him, and he sayde, They haue ascribed vnto Dauid ten thousand, and to me they haue ascribed but a thousand, and what can he haue more saue the kingdome?
Sayil pa t' renmen sa menm, li te fache. Li t'ap di: -Anhan! Yo di David touye dimil (10.000), mwen menm, yo di m' touye mil ase! Sèl bagay ki rete la a, se wa ase yo poko fè l' wa!
9 Wherefore Saul had an eye on Dauid from that day forward.
Depi jou sa a, Sayil gade David ak move je.
10 And on the morowe, the euill spirite of God came vpon Saul, and he prophecied in the middes of the house: and Dauid played with his hand like as at other times, and there was a speare in Sauls hand.
Nan denmen, Bondye voye yon move lespri desann sou Sayil. Msye t'ap depale nan tout kay la, tankou yon moun fou. David menm t'ap jwe gita, jan li te konn fè l' chak jou a. Sayil te kenbe frenn li nan men l'.
11 And Saul tooke the speare, and sayd, I will smite Dauid through to the wall. But Dauid auoyded twise out of his presence.
Sayil di nan kè l': Mwen pral kloure David sou miray la, epi li voye frenn lan an de fwa sou David. Men, chak fwa, David eskive frenn lan.
12 And Saul was afrayd of Dauid, because the Lord was with him, and was departed from Saul.
Sayil te pè David anpil, paske Seyè a te vire do bay Sayil, se avèk David li te ye koulye a.
13 Therefore Saul put him from him, and made him a captaine ouer a thousand, and he went out and in before the people.
Se konsa Sayil voye David al byen lwen, li wete l' anba je l'. Li mete l' chèf sou mil sòlda. David pa t' chita menm, tout tan li te nan goumen.
14 And Dauid behaued himselfe wisely in all his wayes: for the Lord was with him.
Men, kote li pase li toujou kraze lènmi yo, paske Seyè a te kanpe avèk li.
15 Wherefore when Saul saw that he was very wise, he was afrayde of him.
Sayil wè ki jan David t'ap reyisi kote l' pase, li vin pè l' pi rèd.
16 For all Israel and Iudah loued Dauid, because he went out and in before them.
Men, tout moun nan peyi Izrayèl ak nan peyi Jida te renmen David paske se li yo te konnen pou chèf lame a.
17 Then Saul sayd to Dauid, Beholde mine eldest daughter Merab, her I will giue thee to wife: onely be a valiant sonne vnto me, and fight the Lordes battels: for Saul thought, Mine hand shall not be vpon him, but the hand of the Philistims shalbe vpon him.
Yon lè Sayil di David konsa: -Men Merab, premye pitit fi mwen an. M'ap ba ou l' pou madanm. Sèl bagay se pou fè m' wè se yon vanyan gason ki pa pè batay ou ye, se pou ou goumen tout kote Seyè a va voye ou al goumen pou li! Sayil t'ap di nan kè l': Konsa, se moun Filisti yo ki pral touye David, mwen p'ap bezwen fè l' mwen menm.
18 And Dauid answered Saul, What am I? and what is my life, or the family of my father in Israel, that I should be sonne in law to the King?
David di Sayil: -Kisa m' ye? Kisa m'ap fè pou m' viv? Kisa fanmi papa m' ye konsa nan peyi Izrayèl la pou m' marye ak pitit fi wa a?
19 Howbeit when Merab Sauls daughter should haue bene giuen to Dauid, she was giuen vnto Adriel a Meholathite to wife.
Men, lè lè a rive pou yo te marye Merab ak David, wa a marye Merab ak Adriyèl, moun lavil Meola.
20 Then Michal Sauls daughter loued Dauid: and they shewed Saul, and the thing pleased him.
Men, Mikal, yon lòt pitit fi Sayil te genyen, te tonbe pou David. Lè y' al di Sayil sa, bagay la te fè l' plezi.
21 Therefore Saul said, I wil giue him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistims may bee against him. Wherefore Saul sayde to Dauid, Thou shalt this day be my sonne in law in the one of the twayne.
Sayil t'ap di nan kè l': M'ap bay David Mikal pou madanm. L'ap tounen yon pèlen pou li, epi moun Filisti yo va touye l'. Se konsa Sayil rele David yon dezyèm fwa, li di l': -Monchè, ou pral vin bofi mwen.
22 And Saul commanded his seruants, Speake with Dauid secretly, and say, Behold, ye King hath a fauour to thee, and all his seruants loue thee: be now therefore the Kings sonne in law.
Li pale sou kote ak moun pa l' yo, li ba yo lòd pou y' al jwenn David an prive pou yo di l': Wa a kontan ou anpil, epi tout moun pa l' yo renmen ou. Se yon bon lè koulye a pou ou marye ak pitit fi wa a.
23 And Sauls seruantes spake these wordes in the eares of Dauid. And Dauid sayd, Seemeth it to you a light thing to be a Kings sonne in lawe, seeing that I am a poore man and of small reputation?
Se konsa y' al di David sa. David reponn yo: -Se bèl bagay pou yon moun marye ak pitit fi wa a. Men, se yon bagay ki twòp pou yon moun ki pòv, ki pa anyen tankou m'.
24 And then Sauls seruats brought him word againe, saying, Such wordes spake Dauid.
Moun Sayil yo al rapòte wa a sa David te di a.
25 And Saul sayd, This wise shall ye say to Dauid, The King desireth no dowrie, but an hundred foreskinnes of the Philistims, to bee auenged of the Kings enemies: for Saul thought to make Dauid fall into the handes of the Philistims.
Epi Sayil di yo: -Men sa n'a di David: Wa a pa bezwen ou ba l' ankenn lajan pou ou marye ak pitit fi li a. Sèlman sa li ta renmen, se san po ti kòk moun Filisti. Konsa, l'a tire revanj sou lènmi li yo. Sayil te fè plan sa a pou David te ka tonbe nan men moun Filisti yo.
26 And when his seruantes tolde Dauid these wordes, it pleased Dauid well, to be the Kings sonne in law: and the dayes were not expired.
Moun Sayil yo al rapòte pawòl sa yo bay David. David te asepte kondisyon an pou li marye ak pitit fi wa a. Anvan lè a rive pou yo fè maryaj la,
27 Afterwarde Dauid arose with his men, and went and slewe of the Philistims two hundreth men: and Dauid brought their foreskinnes, and they gaue them wholly to the King that hee might be the Kings sonne in lawe: therefore Saul gaue him Michal his daughter to wife.
David leve, li pati ak sòlda li yo. Li touye desan (200) moun Filisti. Li pote po ti kòk yo bay wa a. Li konte yo yonn pa yonn, li renmèt li yo san manke yonn, pou l' te ka tounen bofi wa a. Se konsa Sayil marye Mikal, pitit fi li a, ak David.
28 Then Saul sawe, and vnderstoode that the Lord was with Dauid, and that Michal the daughter of Saul loued him.
Lè Sayil vin konprann non sèlman Seyè a te avèk David, men Mikal, pwòp pitit fi Sayil la, te renmen David tou,
29 Then Saul was more and more afrayde of Dauid, and Saul became alway Dauids enemie.
Sayil te vin pè David plis toujou. Depi jou sa a li te lènmi David jouk jou li mouri.
30 And when the Princes of the Philistims went forth, at their going forth Dauid behaued himselfe more wisely then all the seruants of Saul, so that his name was much set by.
Lame moun Filisti yo te konn vin atake yo. Men chak fwa, nan tout chèf k'ap sèvi ak Sayil yo, se toujou David ki te resi kenbe tèt ak yo pi byen. Tout moun nan peyi a te vin konsidere l' anpil.
