1 Samuel 25

1 Then Samuel dyed, and all Israel assembled, and mourned for him, and buried him in his owne house at Ramah. And Dauid arose and went downe to the wildernes of Paran.

Samyèl mouri, tout pèp Izrayèl la sanble pou yo kriye lanmò li. Lèfini, yo antere l' anndan lakay li lavil Rama. Apre sa, David pati, li desann nan dezè Paran an.

2 Now in Maon was a man, who had his possessio in Carmel, and the man was exceeding mightie and had three thousand sheepe, and a thousand goates: and he was shering his sheepe in Carmel.

Te gen yon nonm moun lavil Maon ki te gen bitasyon l' lavil Kamèl. Nonm lan te rich anpil: li te gen twamil (3.000) tèt mouton ak mil (1000) tèt kabrit. Lè sa a, msye te lavil Kamèl pou fè taye lenn mouton l' yo.

3 The name also of the man was Nabal, and the name of his wife Abigail, and she was a woman of singular wisdome, and beautifull, but the man was churlish, and euil conditioned, and was of the familie of Caleb.

Msye te rele Nabal, madanm li te rele Abigayèl. Se te yon fanm ki te gen anpil lespri, lèfini li te bèl. Men, mari a te gen move jan, li pa t' konn boule byen ak moun menm. Se te fanmi moun Kalèb yo.

4 And Dauid heard in the wildernesse, that Nabal did shere his sheepe.

Antan David nan dezè a, li vin konnen Nabal t'ap taye lenn mouton l' yo.

5 Therefore Dauid sent tenne yong men, and Dauid said vnto the yong men, Go vp to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and aske him in my name how he doeth.

Li voye dis jenn gason bò kote l'. Li di yo konsa: -Moute lavil Kamèl, ale lakay Nabal, n'a di l' mwen voye bonjou pou li.

6 And thus shall ye say for salutation, Both thou, and thine house, and all that thou hast, be in peace, wealth and prosperitie.

Men sa n'a di l': David, frè ou, voye bonjou pou ou ak pou tout moun lakay ou. Li swete tout bagay ap mache byen lakay ou.

7 Behold, I haue heard, that thou hast sherers: now thy shepherds were with vs, and we did the no hurt, neyther did they misse any thing all the while they were in Carmel.

Li tande ou ap taye lenn mouton ou yo. Li voye di ou lè gadò mouton ou yo te avèk nou, nou pa t' janm fè yo anyen. Yo pa janm pèdi anyen pandan tout tan yo te nan zòn Kamèl la.

8 Aske thy seruants and they wil shew thee. Wherefore let these yong men finde fauour in thine eyes: (for we come in a good season) giue, I pray thee, whatsoeuer commeth to thine hand vnto thy seruants, and to thy sonne Dauid.

Ou mèt mande yo, y'a di ou. David voye mande ou pou resevwa mesye pa l' yo byen, paske se yon jou fèt nou rive isit la. Tanpri, mèt! Bay sa ou genyen pou nou k'ap sèvi ou, ak pou David, zanmi ou lan.

9 And when Dauids yong men came, they tolde Nabal all those wordes in the name of Dauid, and helde their peace.

Mesye David yo rive vre, yo bay Nabal komisyon an nan non David. Epi yo rete tann.

10 Then Nabal answered Dauids seruantes, and sayd, Who is Dauid? and who is the sonne of Ishai? there be many seruantes nowe a dayes, that breake away euery man from his master.

Apre yon ti tan, Nabal reponn yo: -David? Pitit gason Izayi a? Mwen pa konnen l' non. Atò, koulye peyi a plen yon bann domestik ki sove kite lakay mèt yo.

11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh that I haue killed for my sherers, and giue it vnto men, whom I know not whence they be?

Anhan! Pou m' pran pen ak dlo lakay mwen ak vyann bèt nou fè touye pou gadò mouton m' yo, pou m' bay yon bann moun mwen pa konnen kote yo soti?

12 So Dauids seruants turned their way, and went againe, and came, and tolde him all those things.

Mesye yo tounen al jwenn David. Lè yo rive, yo rapòte ba li tou sa Nabal te di.

13 And Dauid said vnto his men, Girde euery man his sword about him. And they girded euery man his sworde: Dauid also girded his sworde. And about foure hundreth men went vp after Dauid, and two hundreth abode by the cariage.

David di yo: -Pran nepe nou, pase yo nan ren nou. Yo tout pase nepe yo nan ren yo. David tou. Lèfini, katsan (400) nan mesye yo ale avèk David. Lòt desan yo (200) rete dèyè ak pwovizyon yo.

14 Nowe one of the seruantes tolde Abigail Nabals wife, saying, Beholde, Dauid sent messengers out of the wildernesse to salute our master, and he rayled on them.

Yonn nan domestik Nabal yo al avèti Abigayèl, madanm Nabal, li di l': -David te voye kèk mesaje soti nan dezè a avèk bèl bonjou pou mèt nou an. Men li menm, li pale mal ak yo.

15 Notwithstanding the men were very good vnto vs, and we had no displeasure, neither missed we any thing as long as we were conuersant with them, when we were in the fieldes.

Men, mesye sa yo te bon pou nou: Yo pa t' janm chache nou kont. Nou pa t' janm pèdi anyen pandan tout tan nou te la ansanm ak yo nan savann lan.

16 They were as a wall vnto vs both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping sheepe.

Yo te pwoteje nou lajounen kou lannwit pandan tout tan nou te la nan mitan yo ap pran swen bann mouton nou yo.

17 Nowe therefore take heede, and see what thou shalt doe: for euill will surely come vpon our master, and vpon all his familie: for he is so wicked that a man can not speake to him.

Koulye a, kalkile byen sa ou wè ou ka fè, paske bagay la ka vire mal ni pou mèt nou ni pou tout fanmi l'. Mari ou sitèlman gen move jan, moun pa ka pale ak li.

18 Then Abigail made haste, and tooke two hundreth cakes, and two bottels of wine, and fiue sheepe ready dressed, and fiue measures of parched corne, and an hundreth frailes of raisins, and two hundreth of figs, and laded them on asses.

Abigayèl prese pran desan (200) pen, de gwo veso an po bèt plen diven, senk mouton tou kwit, de barik grenn griye, san mamit rezen chèch, desan (200) gato fèt ak figfrans chèch, li chaje tou sa sou bourik.

19 Then she said vnto her seruants, Go ye before me: beholde, I will come after you: yet she tolde not her husband Nabal.

Lèfini, li di domestik li yo: -Nou mèt pran devan, mwen menm mwen dèyè. Men li pa di Nabal, mari l' anyen.

20 And as shee rode on her asse, shee came downe by a secret place of the mountaine, and beholde, Dauid and his men came downe against her, and she met them.

Abigayèl te moute sou yon bourik. Li t'ap desann yon ti mòn lè li rive nan yon koub, li tonbe bab pou bab ak David ki t'ap mache sou li ansanm ak mesye l' yo. Yo kontre.

21 And Dauid said, In deede I haue kept all in vaine that this fellow had in the wildernesse, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained vnto him: for he hath requited me euill for good.

David t'ap di nan kè li: -Sa m' te bezwen pwoteje tou sa nonm sa a te genyen nan dezè a fè? Li pa janm pèdi anyen nan sa ki te pou li. Epi se konsa l'ap peye m' pou tout byen mwen fè pou li yo?

22 So and more also doe God vnto the enemies of Dauid: for surely I will not leaue of all that he hath, by the dawning of the day, any that pisseth against the wall.

Se pou Bondye ban m' pi gwo pinisyon ki genyen si anvan denmen maten mwen pa touye dènye moun lakay li, granmoun kou timoun.

23 And when Abigail sawe Dauid, she hasted and lighted off her asse, and fell before Dauid on her face, and bowed her selfe to the ground,

Wè Abigayèl wè David, li kouri desann bourik li a, li lage kò l' ajenou devan David, li bese tèt li jouk atè.

24 And fel at his feete, and sayd, Oh, my lord, I haue committed the iniquitie, and I pray thee, let thine handmayde speake to thee, and heare thou the wordes of thine handmayde.

Apre sa, li lage kò l' nan pye David, li di l' konsa: -Tanpri, chèf mwen, ban m' pèmisyon pale avè ou. Tout fòt la se pou mwen. Koute sa m'ap di ou.

25 Let not my lorde, I pray thee, regard this wicked man Nabal: for as his name is, so is he: Nabal is his name, and follie is with him: but I thine handmayde sawe not the yong men of my lord whom thou sentest.

Tanpri, pa okipe nonm yo rele Nabal la. Se yon vòryen. Se pa pou gremesi yo rele l' Nabal ki vle di moun fou. Mwen menm, mèt, mwen pa t' wè mesye ou te voye yo.

26 Now therefore my lord, as the Lord liueth, and as thy soule liueth (the Lord, I say, that hath withholden thee from comming to shedde blood, and that thine hand should not saue thee) so now thine enemies shall be as Nabal, and they that intend to doe my lord euill.

Se Seyè a menm ki anpeche ou mete san deyò pou pran revanj ou. Koulye a, mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a ak devan ou menm, mèt mwen, se pou tout lènmi ou yo, tout moun ki ta vle fè ou mal, fini tankou Nabal.

27 And now, this blessing which thine handmaid hath brought vnto my lorde, let it be giuen vnto the yong men, that follow my lord.

Koulye a, mèt mwen, men sa mwen pote fè ou kado pou ou bay moun k'ap mache avè ou yo.

28 I pray thee, forgiue the trespasse of thine handmaide: for the Lord will make my lorde a sure house, because my lord fighteth the battels of the Lord, and none euill hath bene found in thee in all thy life.

Tanpri, mèt, padonnen sa mwen fè ki mal. Seyè a va ba ou yon fanmi ki p'ap janm disparèt, paske batay w'ap mennen yo se batay Seyè a yo ye. Ou p'ap janm fè anyen ki mal nan tout lavi ou.

29 Yet a man hath risen vp to persecute thee, and to seeke thy soule, but the soule of my lorde shall be bounde in the bundel of life with the Lord thy God: and the soule of thine enemies shall God cast out, as out of the middle of a sling.

Si yon moun konprann pou li atake ou, si l'ap chache touye ou, Seyè a, Bondye ou la, va pwoteje ou. L'a sere ou bò kote l' tankou lè yon moun ap sere yon bagay li renmen anpil. Men l'ap pran lènmi ou yo, l'ap voye yo jete byen lwen tankou lè yon moun ap voye wòch nan fistibal.

30 And when the Lord shall haue done to my lord al the good that he hath promised thee, and shall haue made thee ruler ouer Israel,

Konsa, lè Seyè a va fè pou ou tout bèl bagay li te pwomèt ou yo, lè l'a mete ou chèf sou pèp Izrayèl la,

31 Then shall it be no griefe vnto thee, nor offence of minde vnto my lord, that he hath not shed blood causelesse, nor that my lorde hath not preserued him selfe: and when the Lord shall haue dealt well with my lorde, remember thine handmaide.

wi, lè sa a, mèt mwen, ou p'ap bezwen nan règrèt, ni konsyans ou p'ap boulvèse deske ou te mete san moun deyò san rezon osinon deske ou te pran revanj ou sou moun. Lè Seyè a va beni ou, tanpri pa bliye m'.

32 Then Dauid said to Abigail, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meete me.

David di Abigayèl konsa: -Lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ki voye ou jòdi a vin kontre avè m'!

33 And blessed be thy counsel, and blessed be thou, which hast kept me this day from comming to shed blood, and that mine hand hath not saued me.

Kite m' di Bondye mèsi pou bon konprann ou genyen an, pou ou menm tou deske jòdi a ou vin kenbe men m' pou m' pa mete san moun deyò, pou m' pa tire revanj mwen mwen menm.

34 For in deede, as the Lord God of Israel liueth, who hath kept me backe from hurting thee, except thou haddest hasted and met mee, surely there had not bene left vnto Nabal by the dawning of the day, any that pisseth against the wall.

Seyè a pa kite m' fè ou anyen. Men tou, si ou pa t' prese vin kontre avè m', mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, anvan denmen maten tout gason fanmi Nabal yo, ata ti gason piti yo, t'ap pèdi lavi yo.

35 Then Dauid receiued of her hande that which she had brought him, and said to her, Goe vp in peace to thine house: beholde, I haue heard thy voyce, and haue graunted thy petition.

Abigayèl renmèt David tou sa li te pote, epi David di l': -Tounen lakay ou ak kè poze! Mwen koute tou sa ou di m' la a. Ou pa bezwen bat kò ou.

36 So Abigail came to Nabal, and behold, he made a feast in his house, like the feast of a King, and Nabals heart was merie within him, for he was very drunken: wherefore shee tolde him nothing, neither lesse nor more, vntil the morning arose.

Abigayèl tounen al jwenn Nabal lakay li. Nabal t'ap fè yon gwo resepsyon, parèy ak resepsyon wa yo konn fè. Nabal te sou anpil, kè l' te kontan. Madanm lan pa di l' anyen jouk nan denmen maten.

37 Then in the morning when the wine was gone out of Nabal, his wife tolde him those wordes, and his heart died within him, and he was like a stone.

Nan maten, lè Nabal fin desoule, madanm li rakonte l' tout bagay. Msye fè yon kriz kè, li vin paralize nan tout kò l'.

38 And about ten dayes after, the Lord smote Nabal, that he dyed.

Dis jou apre sa, Seyè a frape Nabal, Nabal mouri.

39 Now when Dauid heard, that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be the Lord that hath iudged the cause of my rebuke of ye hand of Nabal, and hath kept his seruant from euil: for the Lord hath recompensed the wickednesse of Nabal vpon his owne head. Also Dauid sent to commune with Abigail to take her to his wife.

Lè David vin konnen Nabal mouri, li di: -Lwanj pou Seyè a! Li fè Nabal peye wont li te fè m' lan, li kenbe men m' pou m' pa fè sa ki mal. Seyè a fè mechanste Nabal la tonbe sou pwòp tèt li. Apre sa a David voye di Abigayèl li ta renmen l' pou madanm.

40 And whe the seruants of Dauid were come to Abigail to Carmel, they spake vnto her, saying, Dauid sent vs to thee, to take thee to his wife.

Moun David yo al jwenn Abigayèl lavil Kamèl. Yo pale avè l', yo di l' konsa: -David voye nou bò kote ou pou nou mennen ou ba li pou l' sa marye avè ou.

41 And she arose, and bowed her selfe on her face to the earth, and said, Behold, let thine handmayde be a seruant to wash the feete of the seruants of my lord.

Abigayèl leve, li lage kò l' ajenou, li bese tèt li atè epi li di: -Se domestik li mwen ye, mwen tou pare pou m' lave pye moun pa l' yo.

42 And Abigail hasted, and arose, and rode vpon an asse, and her fiue maides folowed her, and she went after the messengers of Dauid, and was his wife.

Abigayèl leve byen vit, li moute bourik li. Li pran senk jenn fi ki t'ap sèvi avè l' lakay li. Li pati ak mesaje David yo. Se konsa li vin madanm David.

43 Dauid also tooke Ahinoam of Izreel, and they were both his wiues.

David te deja marye ak Akinoam, moun lavil Jizreyèl. Li vin pran Abigayèl koulye a, sa te fè l' de madanm.

44 Now Saul had giuen Michal his daughter Dauids wife to Phalti the sonne of Laish, which was of Gallim.

Sayil menm bò pa l' te pran Mikal, pitit fi li a ki te madanm David, li marye l' ak Palti, pitit gason Layis, moun lavil Galim.
