1 Samuel 14

1 Now it fell upon a day, that Jonathan the son of Saul said unto the young man that bore his armour: 'Come and let us go over to the Philistines' garrison, that is on yonder side. But he told not his father.

Yon jou, Jonatan, pitit Sayil la, pale ak jenn gason ki t'ap pote zam li yo, li di l' konsa: -Ann al avè m'! Ann travèse lòt bò a, nan kan moun Filisti yo. Men Jonatan pa t' avèti papa l'.

2 And Saul tarried in the uttermost part of Gibeah under the pomegranate-tree which is in Migron; and the people that were with him were about six hundred men,

Sayil menm te moute kan li anba pye grenad Migwon an, sou lizyè peyi Gibeya a. Li te gen sisan (600) sòlda konsa avè l'.

3 and Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of the LORD in Shiloh, wearing an ephod. And the people knew not that Jonathan was gone.

Prèt ki t'ap pote jile Bondye a te rele Akija. Se te pitit Akitoub, pitit frè Ikabòd la. Yo te pitit Fineas ki li menm te pitit Eli, ki te prèt Seyè a lavil Silo. Sòlda yo pa t' konnen Jonatan te pati.

4 And between the passes, by which Jonathan sought to go over unto the Philistines' garrison, there was a rocky crag on the one side, and a rocky crag on the other side; and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

Nan pas kote Jonatan t'ap chache janbe larivyè pou ale nan kan moun Filisti yo, te gen de gwo wòch, yonn chak bò pas la. Yonn te rele Bozès, lòt la Sene.

5 The one crag rose up on the north in front of Michmas, and the other on the south in front of Geba.

Yonn te sou bò nò anfas lavil Mikmas, lòt la sou bò sid anfas lavil Geba.

6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour: 'Come and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised; it may be that the LORD will work for us; for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few.'

Jonatan di jenn gason an: -Ann janbe lòt bò nan kan moun Filisti yo, bann moun sa yo ki pa sèvi Seyè a. Ou pa janm konnen, Seyè a ka ede nou. Paske pa gen anyen ki ka anpeche l' fè nou genyen, nou te mèt anpil, nou te mèt pa anpil.

7 And his armour-bearer said unto him: 'Do all that is in thy heart; turn thee, behold I am with thee according to thy heart.'

Jenn gason an reponn li: -Fè sa ou gen nan lide ou. Ale non! M'ap kanpe avè ou!

8 Then said Jonathan: 'Behold, we will pass over unto the men, and we will disclose ourselves unto them.

Jonatan di l': -Bon! Nou pral janbe lòt bò a epi n'ap kite yo wè nou.

9 If they say thus unto us: Tarry until we come to you; then we will stand still in our place, and will not go up unto them.

Si yo di nou rete kote nou ye a, y'ap vin jwenn nou, n'ap rete kote nou ye a, nou p'ap mache sou yo.

10 But if they say thus: Come up unto us; then we will go up; for the LORD hath delivered them into our hand; and this shall be the sign unto us.'

Men, si yo di nou moute vin jwenn yo, enben! n'a mache sou yo. Paske, sa vle di Seyè a gen tan lage yo nan men nou.

11 And both of them disclosed themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines; and the Philistines said: 'Behold Hebrews coming forth out of the holes where they hid themselves.'

Yo parèt kò yo, yo kite moun Filisti yo wè yo. Moun Filisti yo di: -Gade! Men kèk ebre k'ap soti nan twou kote yo te kache.

12 And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan and his armour-bearer, and said: 'Come up to us, and we will show you a thing.' And Jonathan said unto his armour-bearer: 'Come up after me; for the LORD hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.'

Sòlda Filisti yo rele Jonatan ak jenn gason an, yo di yo: -Moute vin jwenn nou non. Nou gen yon bagay pou n' di nou. Lè sa a, Jonatan di jenn gason an: -Swiv mwen. Seyè a lage yo nan men pèp Izrayèl la.

13 And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armour-bearer after him; and they fell before Jonathan; and his armour-bearer slew them after him.

Jonatan grenpe moute sou men l' ak sou pye l' yo, jenn gason an t'ap swiv li. Jonatan atake moun Filisti yo, li jete yo atè. Jenn gason an menm t'ap touye yo dèyè l'.

14 And that first slaughter, which Jonathan and his armour-bearer made, was about twenty men, within as it were half a furrow's length in an acre of land.

Nan premye atak sa a, Jonatan ak jenn gason an te touye vin sòlda konsa, sou yon ti teren ki pa t' menm mezire yon ka (1/4) kawo tè.

15 And there was a trembling in the camp in the field, and among all the people; the garrison, and the spoilers, they also trembled; and the earth quaked; so it grew into a terror from God.

Tout moun Filisti ki te nan kan an, nan tout plenn lan, vin pè anpil. Sòlda yo te mete an avangad yo ak tout rès lame a te vin pè tou. Tè a pran tranble, te gen yon gwo kouri nan tout peyi a.

16 And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeath-benjamin looked; and, behold, the multitude melted away, and they went hither and thither.

Faksyonnè Sayil te mete ap veye lavil Gibeya nan peyi moun Benjamen yo wè te gen yon sèl debandad nan mitan moun Filisti yo ki t'ap kouri tankou moun fou.

17 Then said Saul unto the people that were with him: 'Number now, and see who is gone from us.' And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armour-bearer were not there.

Sayil di moun ki te avè l' yo: -Konte sòlda yo! Gade kilès ki pa la! Yo konte, yo pa jwenn ni Jonatan ni jenn gason ki te konn pote zam li yo.

18 And Saul said unto Ahijah: 'Bring hither the ark of God.' For the ark of God was there at that time with the children of Israel.

Lè sa a, Sayil di Akija konsa: -Pwoche ak Bwat Kontra Bondye a isit. Li te di sa paske jou sa a se Akija ki t'ap pote bwat la devan pèp Izrayèl la.

19 And it came to pass, while Saul talked unto the priest, that the tumult that was in the camp of the Philistines went on and increased; and Saul said unto the priest: 'Withdraw thy hand.'

Pandan Sayil t'ap pale ak prèt la, kouri a te vin pi rèd nan mitan moun Filisti yo. Sayil di prèt la konsa: -Rete sou sa ou fè!

20 And Saul and all the people that were with him were gathered together, and came to the battle; and, behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, and there was a very great discomfiture.

Li leve ansanm ak moun ki te avè l' yo, yo ale kote batay la te cho a. Moun Filisti yo menm te fin pèdi tèt yo, yo t'ap goumen yonn ak lòt.

21 Now the Hebrews that were with the Philistines as beforetime, and that went up with them into the camp round about; even they also turned to be with the Israelites that were with Saul and Jonathan.

Gen kèk ebre ki te mete tèt yo bò kote moun Filisti yo, yo te la avèk yo nan kan an. Lè sa a, yo vire kont moun Filisti yo, yo mete yo bò moun pèp Izrayèl yo ki te avèk Sayil ak Jonatan.

22 Likewise all the men of Israel that had hid themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, even they also followed hard after them in the battle.

Moun pèp Izrayèl ki te kache nan mòn Efrayim yo vin tande moun Filisti yo t'ap kraze rak. Yo menm tou yo vini, yo lage kò yo nan batay la, yo t'ap kouri dèyè moun Filisti yo.

23 So the LORD saved Israel that day; and the battle passed on as far as Beth-aven.

Se konsa jou sa a, Seyè a te sove pèp Izrayèl la. Yo rive jouk lòt bò lavil Bèt-Avenn, yo t'ap goumen toujou.

24 And the men of Israel were distressed that day; but Saul adjured the people, saying: 'Cursed be the man that eateth any food until it be evening, and I be avenged on mine enemies.' So none of the people tasted food.

Jou sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo te fèb anpil tèlman yo te grangou paske Sayil te pran yon gwo angajman devan tout pèp la, li te pase lòd sa a: -Madichon pou nenpòt moun ki va mete manje nan bouch li jòdi a anvan mwen pran revanj mwen sou lènmi m' yo. Se konsa pesonn nan peyi a pa t' manje anyen jou sa a.

25 And all the people came into the forest; and there was honey upon the ground.

Pèp la rive nan yon gwo rakbwa kote ki te gen anpil siwo myèl.

26 And when the people were come unto the forest, behold a flow of honey; but no man put his hand to his mouth; for the people feared the oath.

Siwo myèl t'ap koule konsa atè nan rakbwa a, men pesonn pa goute menm ladan l' paske yo te pè pou malè Sayil te di a pa rive yo.

27 But Jonathan heard not when his father charged the people with the oath; and he put forth the end of the rod that was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his eyes brightened.

Men, Jonatan pa t' konnen papa l' te bay pèp la prigad sa a. Sa li fè, li lonje baton ki te nan men l' lan, li tranpe bout baton an nan yon gato myèl, epi li mete l' nan bouch li. Lamenm, li santi li vin gen fòs ankò.

28 Then answered one of the people, and said: 'Thy father straitly charged the people with an oath, saying: Cursed be the man that eateth food this day; and the people are faint.'

Men, yonn nan mesye yo di li: -Tout moun ap tonbe feblès, yo pa manje paske papa ou te ban nou prigad sa a, li te di: Madichon pou nenpòt moun ki manje anyen jòdi a.

29 Then said Jonathan: 'My father hath troubled the land; see, I pray you, how mine eyes are brightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.

Jonatan reponn li: -Sa papa m' fè pèp la la a pa bon menm! Gade jan m' santi m' gen fòs ankò, paske mwen goute yon ti siwo myèl.

30 How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely to-day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? had there not been then a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?'

Si pèp la te manje nan manje li pran lakay moun Filisti yo jòdi a, koulye a èske nou wè kantite moun Filisti nou ta ka touye met sou sa nou touye deja yo?

31 And they smote of the Philistines that day from Michmas to Aijalon; and the people were very faint.

Jou sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo bat moun Filisti yo byen bat, depi lavil Mikmas jouk lavil Ajalon. Pèp la t'ap tonbe feblès tèlman yo te grangou.

32 And the people flew upon the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground; and the people did eat them with the blood.

Se konsa yo lage kò yo sou sa yo te pran nan men lènmi yo: yo pran mouton, kabrit, gwo bèf, ti bèf, yo touye yo lamenm epi yo manje vyann lan ak tout san an ladan l'.

33 Then they told Saul, saying: 'Behold, the people sin against the LORD, in that they eat with the blood.' And he said: 'Ye have dealt treacherously; roll a great stone unto me this day.'

Y' al di Sayil konsa: -Gade! Men pèp la ap peche kont Seyè a: Y'ap manje vyann ak tout san an ladan l'. Sayil di konsa: -Nou se yon bann lach! Woule yon gwo wòch bò isit la ban mwen.

34 And Saul said: 'Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them: Bring me hither every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slay them here, and eat; and sin not against the LORD in eating with the blood.' And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slew them there.

Apre sa, li bay lòd sa a: -Gaye kò nou nan tout pèp la. Al di pou chak moun mennen bèf yo ak mouton yo ban mwen. Se isit la n'a touye yo, se isit la n'a manje yo pou nou pa fè peche kont Seyè a, pou nou pa manje vyann yo ak tout san yo ladan yo. Jou swa sa a, chak moun mennen bèt yo te genyen, yo touye yo la.

35 And Saul built an altar unto the LORD; the same was the first altar that he built unto the LORD.

Sayil bati yon lotèl pou Seyè a. Se te premye lotèl li te bati.

36 And Saul said: 'Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and spoil them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them.' And they said: 'Do whatsoever seemeth good unto thee.' Then said the priest: 'Let us draw near hither unto God.'

Sayil di moun yo: -Ann desann dèyè moun Filisti yo. Ann pase nwit lan ap bat yo, n'a piye yo jouk bajou kase, n'a touye yo tout. Yo reponn li: -Fè sa ou wè ki bon! Men, prèt la di: -Ann gade sa Seyè a di nou sou sa!

37 And Saul asked counsel of God: 'Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt Thou deliver them into the hand of Israel?' But He answered him not that day.

Sayil mande Seyè a: -Eske se pou m' desann dèyè moun Filisti yo? Eske w'ap lage yo nan men pèp Izrayèl la? Men Seyè a pa reponn li jou sa a.

38 And Saul said: 'Draw nigh hither, all ye chiefs of the people; and know and see wherein this sin hath been this day.

Lè sa a, li rele tout chèf pèp la, li di yo: -Pwoche devan la a. Chache konnen ki peche nou te fè jòdi a.

39 For, as the LORD liveth, who saveth Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die.' But there was not a man among all the people that answered him.

Mwen bay pawòl mwen. Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè ki vivan an, li menm ki delivre pèp Izrayèl la, menm si se Jonatan, pitit mwen, ki koupab, se pou l' mouri. Pesonn pa louvri bouch yo di anyen.

40 Then said he unto all Israel: 'Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side.' And the people said unto Saul: 'Do what seemeth good unto thee.'

Epi li di tout pèp Izrayèl la: -Nou menm kanpe bò isit. Mwen menm ak Jonatan, pitit gason m' lan, m'ap kanpe bò la. Pèp la di Sayil: -Fè sa ou wè ki bon!

41 Therefore Saul said unto the LORD, the God of Israel: 'Declare the right.' And Jonathan and Saul were taken by lot; but the people escaped.

Sayil di Seyè a: -Bondye pèp Izrayèl la! Poukisa ou pa reponn mwen jòdi a? Seyè, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, tanpri, reponn mwen nan ourim ak toumim yo. Si se mwen menm osinon Jonatan ki koupab, w'a bay ourim yo. Men, si se yon moun nan pèp la ki koupab, w'a bay toumim yo. Seyè a fè yo konnen se bò Sayil ak Jonatan fòt la te ye, pèp la te pou anyen nan sa.

42 And Saul said: 'Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son.' And Jonathan was taken.

Sayil di: -Koulye a, ant Jonatan avè m', di kilès nan nou de a ki koupab. Seyè a fè konnen se Jonatan.

43 Then Saul said to Jonathan: 'Tell me what thou hast done.' And Jonathan told him, and said: 'I did certainly taste a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand; here am I: I will die.'

Lè sa a, Sayil mande Jonatan: -Kisa ou fè? Jonatan reponn: -Mwen te pran ti gout siwo myèl nan pwent baton ki te nan men m' lan, mwen goute. Men mwen! Mwen pare pou m' mouri.

44 And Saul said: 'God do so and more also; thou shalt surely die, Jonathan.'

Sayil di li: -Se pou Bondye ban m' pi gwo pinisyon ki genyen si mwen pa fè yo touye ou.

45 And the people said unto Saul: 'Shall Jonathan die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? Far from it; as the LORD liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he hath wrought with God this day.' So the people rescued Jonathan, that he died not.

Men pèp la di Sayil konsa: -Se Jonatan ki te genyen bèl batay sa a pou pèp Izrayèl la, li pa ka mouri. Mande Bondye padon! Nou fè sèman devan Seyè ki vivan an, nou p'ap kite yon grenn cheve nan tèt li tonbe, paske se avèk lasistans Bondye li fè sa l' fè jòdi a. Se konsa moun yo enpoze yo touye Jonatan. Li pa mouri.

46 Then Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place.

Apre sa, Sayil sispann kouri dèyè moun Filisti yo. Moun Filisti yo menm tounen nan peyi yo.

47 So Saul took the kingdom over Israel, and fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he put them to the worse.

Apre yo te fin fè Sayil wa peyi Izrayèl la, li fè lagè ak tout lènmi l' yo alawonnbadè: ak moun Moab yo, moun Amon yo, moun Edon yo, ak wa lavil Soba yo, ak moun Filisti yo. Kote li pase, li genyen batay yo.

48 And he did valiantly, and smote the Amalekites, and delivered Israel out of the hands of them that spoiled them.

Li te fè wè jan li te yon vanyan sòlda. Li bat ata moun Amalèk yo. Konsa, li delivre pèp Izrayèl la anba men tout moun ki t'ap piye l' yo.

49 Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Ishvi, and Malchi-shua; and the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the first-born Merab, and the name of the younger Michal;

Men pitit gason Sayil te genyen: Se te Jonatan, Yichwi ak Malkichwa. Men non de pitit fi li yo: Pi gran an te rele Merab, pi piti a te rele Mikal.

50 and the name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the captain of his host was Abner, the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.

Madan Sayil te rele Akinoam. Se te pitit Akimas. Kòmandan lame a te rele Abnè. Se te pitit Nè, tonton Sayil.

51 And Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel.

Kich, papa Sayil, ak Nè, papa Abnè, te pitit gason Abiyèl.

52 And there was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he took him unto him.

Sayil pase tout lavi li ap mennen gwo batay ak moun Filisti yo. Chak fwa li te jwenn yon vanyan gason osinon yon moun ki te gen anpil fòs ak kouraj, li te mete l' nan lame li a.
