< 2 Samuel 16 >
1 When Dauid was a little past the top of the hill, behold, Ziba the seruant of Mephibosheth mette him with a couple of asses sadled, and vpon them two hundreth cakes of bread, and an hundreth bunches of raisins, and an hundreth of dryed figges, and a bottel of wine.
David te fèk fin kite tèt mòn lan lè li wè Ziba, domestik Mefibochèt la, k'ap vin kontre l'. Li t'ap mennen de bourik byen chaje avèk desan (200) pen, san (100) grap rezen chèch, san (100) pake fwi mi ak yon gwo veso fèt ak po bèt plen diven.
2 And the King said vnto Ziba, What meanest thou by these? And Ziba said, They be asses for the kings housholde to ride on, and bread and dryed figges for the yong men to eate, and wine, that the faint may drinke in the wildernesse.
Wa David mande l': -Sa ou pral fè ak tout bagay sa yo? Ziba reponn li: -Bourik yo, se pou wa a ansanm ak fanmi li yo moute. Pen yo ak fwi yo, se pou moun ou yo manje, diven an pou yo bwè lè y'a santi yo bouke nan dezè a.
3 And the king sayde, But where is thy masters sonne? Then Ziba answered the King, Beholde, he remayneth in Ierusalem: for he sayde, This day shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdome of my father.
Wa a mande l': -Kote mèt ou, Mefibochèt, pitit pitit Sayil la? Ziba reponn: -Li rete lavil Jerizalèm, paske li di li sèten moun peyi Izrayèl yo pral renmèt li baton kòmandman ki te nan men Sayil, granpapa l' la.
4 Then said the King to Ziba, Behold, thine are all that perteined vnto Mephibosheth. And Ziba saide, I beseech thee, let me finde grace in thy sight, my lord, O King.
Wa a di Ziba konsa: -Depi jòdi a, tou sa ki te pou Mefibochèt se pou ou yo ye. Ziba reponn li: -Men mwen lage kò m' nan pye ou, monwa. Mwen mande pou ou toujou kontan avè m'.
5 And when king Dauid came to Bahurim, behold, thence came out a man of the familie of the house of Saul, named Shimei the sonne of Gera: and he came out, and cursed.
Lè wa David rive bò lavil Bakourim, yon moun fanmi wa Sayil soti lavil la vin kontre l'. Se te Chimeyi, pitit gason Gera a. Antan l'ap vanse sou David, li t'ap joure l', li t'ap ba li madichon.
6 And he cast stones at Dauid, and at all the seruants of King Dauid: and all the people, and all the men of warre were on his right hande, and on his left.
Li konmanse voye wòch sou David ak sou moun pa l' yo, atout pèp la ak sòlda yo t'ap mache sou bò dwat ak sou bò gòch wa a.
7 And thus sayde Shimei when hee cursed, Come forth, come foorth thou murtherer, and wicked man.
Chimeyi t'ap bay David madichon, li t'ap di l': -Ale ou vouzan! Ale ou vouzan! Vakabon! Ansasen!
8 The Lord hath brought vpon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned: and the Lord hath deliuered thy kingdome into the hand of Absalom thy sonne: and beholde, thou art taken in thy wickednesse, because thou art a murtherer.
Ou te pran plas wa Sayil la! Jòdi a Seyè a ap pini ou pou tout moun nan fanmi Sayil ou te sasinen yo. Seyè a renmèt gouvènman an nan men Absalon, pitit gason ou lan. Se konsa pou ou te fini, se ansasen ou ye!
9 Then saide Abishai the sonne of Zeruiah vnto the King, Why doeth this dead dog curse my lord the King? let me goe, I pray thee, and take away his head.
Abichayi, pitit gason Sewouya a, di wa a konsa: -Monwa, poukisa pou ou kite chen mouri sa a ap madichonnen ou konsa? Kite m' janbe lòt bò a al koupe tèt li!
10 But the King saide, What haue I to doe with you, ye sonnes of Zeruiah? for he curseth, eue because the Lord hath bidden him curse Dauid: who dare then say, Wherfore hast thou done so?
Wa a di Abichayi ansanm ak Joab, frè li a: -Pa antre nan sa ki pa gade nou, tande. Si se Seyè a ki di l' pou l' ban m' madichon, ki moun ki gen dwa mande l' pouki l'ap fè sa?
11 And Dauid sayd to Abishai, and to all his seruants, Beholde, my sonne which came out of mine owne bowels, seeketh my life: then howe much more now may this sonne of Iemini? Suffer him to curse: for the Lord hath bidden him.
Apre sa, David pale ak Abichayi ansanm ak tout moun pa l' yo, li di yo: -Gade! Pwòp pitit gason mwen, san mwen, deyò pou l' touye m'. Ale wè pou moun sa a ki soti nan ras Benjamen yo! Kite l' ban m' madichon, si se Seyè a ki di l' ban m' madichon.
12 It may be that the Lord will looke on mine affliction, and doe me good for his cursing this day.
Nou pa janm konnen, Seyè a va wè nan ki mizè mwen ye. Lè sa a, l'a ban m' benediksyon nan plas madichon l'ap ban m' jòdi a.
13 And as Dauid and his men went by the way, Shimei went by the side of the mountaine ouer against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones against him, and cast dust.
Se konsa, David ale chemen l' avèk tout moun li yo. Chimeyi menm t'ap mache dèyè yo sou flan mòn lan, li t'ap ba yo madichon, li t'ap voye wòch ak pousyè tè sou yo.
14 Then came the King and all the people that were with him wearie, and refreshed them selues there.
Wa a ansanm ak tout pèp la te bouke jouk yo pa t' kapab ankò lè yo rive bò larivyè Jouden. Se la yo rete pran souf.
15 And Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Ierusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
Absalon antre lavil Jerizalèm ansanm ak tout moun peyi Izrayèl yo. Achitofèl te ansanm ak yo.
16 And when Hushai the Archite Dauids friend was come vnto Absalom, Hushai said vnto Absalom, God saue the King, God saue the King.
Lè Ouchayi, bon zanmi David la, kontre ak Absolon, li di: -Viv wa a! Viv wa a!
17 Then Absalom sayd to Hushai, Is this thy kindenes to thy friend? Why wentest thou not with thy friend?
Absalon di l' konsa: -Se konsa ou te bon zanmi David la? Poukisa ou pa t' ale ansanm avè l'?
18 Hushai then answered vnto Absalom, Nay, but whome the Lord, and this people, and all the men of Israel chuse, his will I be, and with him will I dwell.
Ouchayi reponn li: -Ki jan pou m' ta fè sa? Se pou moun Seyè a ansanm ak moun sa yo ak tout moun peyi Izrayèl yo chwazi a mwen ye. Se avè l' pou m' rete.
19 And moreouer vnto whome shall I doe seruice? not to his sonne? as I serued before thy father, so will I before thee.
Lèfini, ki moun pou m' ta sèvi si se pa pitit mèt mwen an? Menm jan mwen te sèvi papa ou, konsa m'a sèvi ou tou.
20 Then spake Absalom to Ahithophel, Giue counsell what we shall doe.
Apre sa, Absalon vire bò Achitofèl, li di l' konsa: -Ann antann nou sou sa nou pral fè koulye a.
21 And Ahithophel said vnto Absalom, Goe in to thy fathers concubines, which he hath left to keepe the house: and when all Israel shall heare, that thou art abhorred of thy father, the hands of all that are with thee, shall be strong.
Achitofèl reponn: -Al kouche ak lòt fanm kay papa ou yo, sa li kite dèyè pou okipe palè a. Lè sa a, tout moun nan peyi Izrayèl la va konnen bagay la gate nèt ant ou menm ak papa ou. Konsa, moun ki avè ou yo ap vin pi ankouraje.
22 So they spread Absalom a tent vpon the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his fathers concubines in the sight of all Israel.
Se konsa, yo moute yon tant pou Absalon sou teras sou do palè a. Epi la, devan tout moun peyi Izrayèl yo, Absalon kouche ak fanm kay papa l' yo.
23 And the counsell of Ahithophel which he counseled in those dayes, was like as one had asked counsell at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with Dauid and with Absalom.
Lè sa a, nenpòt konsèy Achitofèl te bay se tankou si se te pawòl Bondye. Ni David ni Absalon te toujou swiv konsèy li yo.
