< 2 Samuel 4 >

1 And when Sauls sonne heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, then his handes were feeble, and all Israel was afraide,
Lè Ichbochèt, pitit Sayil la, pran nouvèl jan Abnè te mouri lavil Ebwon, kè l' kase nèt. Tout pèp Izrayèl la te tèt anba.
2 And Sauls sonne had two men that were captaines of bandes: the one called Baanah, and the other called Rechab, the sonnes of Rimmon a Beerothite of the children of Beniamin. (for Beeroth was reckened to Beniamin,
Ichbochèt te gen nan lame li a de chèf piyajè ki te rele Bana ak Rekab. Yo te pitit Rimon, yon nonm nan branch fanmi Benjamen an ki te rete lavil Bewòt. Yo te toujou mete nan tèt yo lavil Bewòt se pou branch fanmi Benjamen an li ye,
3 Because the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and soiourned there, vnto this day).
depi lè moun Bewòt yo te kouri kite lavil la pou y' al lavil Gitayim, kote y'ap viv jouk koulye a.
4 And Ionathan Sauls sonne had a sonne that was lame on his feete: he was fiue yere olde when the tydings came of Saul and Ionathan out of Israel: then his nourse tooke him, and fledde away. And as she made haste to flee, the childe fell, and beganne to halte, and his name was Mephibosheth.
Jonatan, pitit Sayil la, te gen yon pitit gason yo te rele Mefibochèt. Li te enfim nan tou de pye l' yo. Li te gen senkan lè Sayil ak Jonatan mouri. Lè nouvèl lanmò yo rive soti lavil Jizreyèl, nouris la pran Mefibochèt, li kouri al kache avè l'. Men, pandan l'ap prese kouri a, pitit la sot tonbe nan men l'. Se konsa li vin enfim nan pye.
5 And the sonnes of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah went and came in the heat of the day to the house of Ish-bosheth (who slept on a bed at noone)
Rekab ak Bana, pitit gason Rimon, moun lavil Bewòt la, pati pou lakay Ichbochèt. Yo rive vè midi. Lè sa a, Ichbochèt t'ap fè yon ti dòmi pou poze kò l'.
6 And beholde, Rechab and Baanah his brother came into the middes of the house as they would haue wheate, and they smote him vnder the fift ryb, and fled.
Fanm ki t'ap veye bò pòt la t'ap triye ble, men li te kite dòmi pran l'. Se konsa mesye yo fofile kò yo antre nan kay la.
7 For when they came into the house, he slept on his bed in his bed chamber, and they smote him, and slewe him, and beheaded him, and tooke his head, and gate them away through the plaine all the night.
Lè yo rive anndan, y' al nan pyès chanm kote Ichbochèt te kouche ap dòmi an, yo touye l'. Lèfini, yo koupe tèt li, yo pran l', yo pati avè l'. Yo pase nwit lan ap mache nan fon Jouden an.
8 And they brought the head of Ish-bosheth vnto Dauid to Hebron, and saide to the King, Beholde the head of Ish-bosheth Sauls sonne thine enemie, who sought after thy life: and the Lord hath auenged my lorde the King this day of Saul, and of his seede.
Yo pote tèt Ichbochèt bay David lavil Ebwon. Yo di l' konsa: -Men tèt Ichbochèt, pitit Sayil la, moun ki pa t' vle wè ou la, moun ki t'ap chache touye ou la. Jòdi a Seyè a bay monwa chans pou li tire revanj sou Sayil ansanm ak sou rès fanmi li.
9 Then Dauid answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sonnes of Rimmon the Beerothite, and saide vnto them, As the Lord liueth, who hath deliuered my soule out of al aduersity,
David reponn yo: -Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a ki delivre m' nan tout malè,
10 When one tolde me, and sayde that Saul was dead, (thinking to haue brought good tydings) I tooke him and slewe him in Ziklag, who thought that I woulde haue giuen him a rewarde for his tidings:
lè moun ki te vin fè m' konnen Sayil te mouri a te kwè se yon bon nouvèl li t'ap pote ban mwen, mwen pran l', mwen fè touye l' lavil Ziklag. Men rekonpans mwen te ba li pou bon nouvèl sa a.
11 How much more, when wicked men haue slaine a righteous person in his owne house, and vpon his bed? shall I not now therfore require his blood at your hand, and take you from the earth?
Sa pral pi rèd toujou pou nou, bann mechan, ki touye yon inonsan anndan lakay li, nan kabann li. Mwen pral fè nou peye pou touye nou touye l' la, mwen pral fè yo disparèt nou sou latè.
12 Then Dauid commanded his yong men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feete, and hanged them vp ouer the poole in Hebron: but they tooke the head of Ishbosheth, and buried it in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.
David bay sòlda yo lòd epi yo touye Rekab ak Bana. Yo koupe de men ak de pye yo. Y' al pann yo bò rezèvwa dlo Ebwon an. Apre sa, yo pran tèt Ichbochèt, y' al antere l' Ebwon, nan tonm Abnè a.
