< 1 Samuel 26 >
1 Againe the Ziphims came vnto Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doeth not Dauid hide him selfe in the hill of Hachilah before Ieshimon?
Moun ki rete nan dezè Zif yo al jwenn Sayil lavil Gibeya, yo di l': -Men David kache sou ti mòn Akila a, sou limit dezè peyi Jida a.
2 Then Saul arose, and went downe to the wildernes of Ziph, hauing three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, for to seeke Dauid in the wildernesse of Ziph.
Sayil pati lamenm avèk twamil (3000) sòlda nan pi bon sòlda peyi Izrayèl la. Li desann nan dezè Zif la al dèyè David.
3 And Saul pitched in the hill of Hachilah, which is before Ieshimon by the way side. Now Dauid abode in the wildernesse, and he sawe that Saul came after him into the wildernesse.
Li moute kan li sou ti mòn Akila a, toupre wout la, sou limit dezè a. David menm te nan dezè a toujou. Lè li vin konnen Sayil te vin dèyè l' nan dezè a,
4 (For Dauid had sent out spies, and vnderstood, that Saul was come in very deede)
li voye kèk espyon. Yo vin di l' Sayil te desann vre nan dezè a.
5 Then Dauid arose, and came to the place where Saul had pitched, and when Dauid beheld the place where Saul lay, and Abner the sonne of Ner which was his chiefe captaine, (for Saul lay in the fort, and the people pitched round about him)
David leve, li pati pou kote Sayil te moute kan lame li a. Li gade pozisyon kote Sayil ak kòmandan lame li a, Abnè, pitit gason Nè a, te kouche. Sayil te kouche nan mitan, tout sòlda yo te kouche bò kote l'.
6 Then spake Dauid, and said to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai the sonne of Zeruiah, brother to Ioab, saying, Who will go downe with me to Saul to the hoste? Then Abishai said, I will goe downe with thee.
David pale ak Akimelèk, moun peyi Et la, ak Abichayi, frè Joab, pitit gason Sewouya a, li di yo: -Kilès nan nou de a ki ta vle desann avè m' nan kan Sayil la? Abichayi reponn: -M'ap desann avè ou.
7 So Dauid and Abishai came downe to the people by night: and beholde, Saul lay sleeping within the fort, and his speare did sticke in the ground at his head: and Abner and the people lay round about him.
Se konsa, jou sa a, nan mitan lannwit, David ak Abichayi rive nan kan an. Yo wè Sayil kouche ap dòmi nan mitan kan an, frenn li te plante nan tè a bò tèt li. Abnè ak tout rès sòlda yo te kouche bò kote l' ap dòmi tou.
8 Then saide Abishai to Dauid, God hath closed thine enemie into thine hande this day: now therefore, I pray thee, let me smite him once with a speare to the earth, and I will not smite him againe.
Abichayi di David konsa: -Aswè a Seyè a lage lènmi ou lan nan men ou vre. Koulye a, kite m' kloure l' atè a ak pwòp frenn li a. Yon sèl kou ap ase. Mwen p'ap bezwen frape l' de fwa.
9 And Dauid sayde to Abishai, Destroy him not: for who can lay his hand on the Lordes anoynted, and be giltlesse?
Men, David di Abichayi konsa: -Pa leve men sou li. Seyè a p'ap manke pini moun ki va leve men l' sou wa li menm li te chwazi a.
10 Moreouer Dauid said, As the Lord liueth, eyther the Lord shall smite him, or his day shall come to dye, or he shall descend into battel, and perish.
Apre sa, David di: -Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè ki vivan an, se Seyè a menm ki pou touye l'. L'a mouri lè lè pou l' mouri a va rive, osinon l'a mouri nan lagè.
11 The Lord keepe mee from laying mine hand vpon the Lordes anointed: but, I pray thee, take now the speare that is at his head, and the pot of water, and let vs goe hence.
Mande Bondye padon non! Mwen p'ap leve men m' sou wa Seyè a te chwazi a. Ann pran frenn li a ak krich dlo ki bò tèt li a. Epi ann ale.
12 So Dauid tooke the speare and the pot of water from Sauls head, and they gate them away, and no man saw it, nor marked it, neither did any awake, but they were all asleepe: for the Lord had sent a dead sleepe vpon them.
David pran frenn lan ak krich dlo ki te bò tèt Sayil la, epi yo ale. Pesonn pa t' wè sa, pesonn pa t' konnen sa ki te rive. Pesonn pa t' leve nan dòmi an. Yo te dòmi nèt ale, paske Seyè a te fè yon gwo dòmi pran yo.
13 Then Dauid went vnto the other side, and stoode on the toppe of an hill a farre off, a great space being betweene them.
Lè sa a, David janbe lòt bò fon an, li kanpe sou tèt ti mòn lan, byen lwen ak yon bèl distans nan mitan li ak lame a.
14 And Dauid cryed to the people, and to Abner the sonne of Ner, saying, Hearest thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered, and said, Who art thou that cryest to the King?
Li pran rele sòlda yo ak Abnè, pitit gason Nè a, li di yo konsa: -Abnè o! Eske ou tande mwen? Abnè reponn: -Kilès k'ap rele nan zòrèy wa a konsa?
15 And Dauid said to Abner, Art not thou a man? and who is like thee in Israel? wherefore then hast thou not kept thy lorde the King? for there came one of the folke in to destroy the King thy lord.
David di li: -Se pa gason ou ye? Ki moun ki ka koresponn avè ou nan peyi Izrayèl la? Poukisa ou pa pwoteje wa a, mèt ou, pi byen? Talè a, gen yon moun ki antre nan kan an ak lide pou l' te touye wa a.
16 This is not well done of thee: as the Lord liueth, ye are worthy to dye, because ye haue not kept your master the Lordes Anointed: and now see where the Kings speare is, and the pot of water that was at his head.
Li pa bon non sa ou fè a. Ou manke sou travay ou, Abnè. Mwen fè sèman devan Bondye ki vivan an, nou tout nou merite yo touye nou. Paske nou pa pwoteje mèt nou, wa Seyè a te chwazi a! Gade non! Kote frenn wa a? Kote krich dlo ki te bò tèt li a?
17 And Saul knewe Dauids voyce, and sayde, Is this thy voyce, my sonne Dauid? And Dauid sayde, It is my voyce, my lorde O King.
Sayil rekonèt vwa David, li di: -David, pitit mwen, se ou menm pa vre? David di li: -Se mwen wi, monwa!
18 And he sayde, Wherefore doeth my lorde thus persecute his seruant? for what haue I done? or what euill is in mine hand?
Apre sa, li di ankò: -Chèmèt mwen, poukisa w'ap pousib mwen konsa, mwen menm k'ap sèvi ou la? Kisa m' fè? Ki krim mwen fè?
19 Now therefore, I beseech thee, let my lord the King heare the wordes of his seruant. If the Lord haue stirred thee vp against me, let him smell the sauour of a sacrifice: but if the children of men haue done it, cursed be they before the Lord: for they haue cast me out this day from abiding in the inheritance of the Lord, saying, Goe, serue other gods.
Koulye a, monwa, tanpri koute sa m'ap di ou. Si se Seyè a ki moute tèt ou kont mwen, al fè yon ofrann ba li pou li ka chanje lide l'. Men, si se moun k'ap fè ou fè sa, se pou madichon Seyè a tonbe sou yo! Koulye a, yo mete m' deyò nan peyi a pou m' pèdi pòsyon pa m' nan tè Seyè a te bay pèp li a, yo voye m' al sèvi lòt bondye.
20 Nowe therefore let not my blood fall to the earth before the face of the Lord: for the King of Israel is come out to seeke a flea, as one would hunt a partridge in the mountaines.
Pa kite yo touye m' nan peyi etranje byen lwen Seyè a! Poukisa pou wa Izrayèl la leve tout lame a pou l' chache touye yon ti pis tankou m'? Poukisa pou l' ap kouri dèyè m' nan tout mòn yo tankou lè moun ap fè lachas ranmye!
21 Then sayde Saul, I haue sinned: come againe, my sonne Dauid: for I will doe thee no more harme, because my soule was precious in thine eyes this day: behold, I haue done foolishly, and haue erred exceedingly.
Sayil reponn: -Sa m' fè a mal. Tounen non, David, pitit mwen. Mwen p'ap janm chache fè ou mal paske ou refize touye m' aswè a ankò. Wi, mwen te aji tankou moun fou, mwen te fè yon bagay ki pa bon menm.
22 Then Dauid answered, and saide, Beholde the Kings speare, let one of the yong men come ouer and set it.
David reponn li: -Monwa, men frenn ou an. Fè yonn nan moun ou yo janbe vin chache l'.
23 And let the Lord rewarde euery man according to his righteousnesse and faithfulnesse: for the Lord had deliuered thee into mine handes this day, but I woulde not lay mine hand vpon the Lords anointed.
Seyè a va bay chak moun sa yo merite, dapre jan yo mache devan li, dapre jan yo kenbe pwomès yo. Jòdi a, li te lage ou nan men m'. Men, mwen pa fè ou anyen, mwen pa leve men m' sou wa Seyè a te chwazi a.
24 And beholde, like as thy life was much set by this day in mine eyes: so let my life be set by in the eyes of the Lord, that he may deliuer me out of all tribulation.
Menm jan mwen te gen respè pou ou jòdi a, m' pa touye ou, mwen mande Seyè a pou l' fè menm bagay la pou mwen tou, lèfini pou l' wete m' nan tout tèt chaje sa yo.
25 Then Saul said to Dauid, Blessed art thou, my sonne Dauid: for thou shalt doe great things, and also preuaile. So Dauid went his way, and Saul returned to his place.
Sayil di David: -Se pou Bondye beni ou, pitit gason mwen! Se pou tou sa w'ap fè mache byen! Apre sa, David al fè wout li, Sayil menm tounen lakay li.
