1 Samuel 19
1 And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should slay David; but Jonathan Saul's son delighted much in David.
Sayil pale ak Jonatan ansanm ak chèf k'ap sèvi avè l' yo, li di yo li fè lide touye David. Men Jonatan, pitit gason Sayil la, te renmen David anpil.
2 And Jonathan told David, saying: 'Saul my father seeketh to slay thee; now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself in the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself.
Li fè David konnen sa. Li di l': -Sayil, papa m', ap chache touye ou. Denmen maten, rete sou prigad ou. Al kache kò ou yon kote. Pa soti menm.
3 And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will speak with my father of thee; and if I see aught, I will tell thee.'
Mwen menm, m'ap soti, mwen pral jwenn papa m' nan jaden kote ou kache a, m'a pale sou ou ak li. Jan l' reponn mwen, m'a fè ou konnen.
4 And Jonathan spoke good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him: 'Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his work hath been very good towards thee;
Jonatan t'ap bay bèl pawòl pou David devan papa l', li t'ap di konsa: -Monwa, piga ou fè David, sèvitè ou la, anyen. Li menm, li pa janm fè ou anyen. Tou sa li fè toujou sèvi ou.
5 for he put his life in his hand, and smote the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great victory for all Israel; thou sawest it, and didst rejoice; wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?'
Li riske lavi li lè l' al touye sòlda Filisti a. Se konsa Seyè a te delivre tout pèp la, se te bèl bagay. Ou te wè sa, ou te kontan. Poukisa koulye a ou ta renmen wè malè rive yon moun inonsan, ou ta vle touye David san l' pa fè anyen?
6 And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore: 'As the LORD liveth, he shall not be put to death.'
Sayil koute Jonatan, li fè sèman, li di l': -Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a ki vivan, yo p'ap touye David.
7 And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as beforetime.
Jonatan rele David, li rapòte l' tout pawòl sa yo. Apre sa, li mennen David bay Sayil. Epi David tanmen sèvi wa a ankò jan li te konn fè anvan an.
8 And there was war again; and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him.
Lagè pete ankò ak moun Filisti yo. David leve al atake yo, li goumen ak yo, li bat yo byen bat, li fè yo kouri met deyò devan li.
9 And an evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand.
Yon jou Seyè a voye yon move lespri ki desann sou Sayil. Sayil te chita lakay li, li te kenbe frenn li nan men l'. David menm t'ap jwe mizik.
10 And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the spear; but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he smote the spear into the wall; and David fled, and escaped that night.
Sayil t'ap chache kloure David nan miray la ak frenn li, men David eskive kò l', epi frenn lan al antre nan miray la. David kouri chape kò l'. Menm jou sa a, nan mitan lannwit,
11 And Saul sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning; and Michal David's wife told him, saying: 'If thou save not thy life to-night, to-morrow thou shalt be slain.'
Sayil voye kèk espyon al veye kay David la pou yo te touye l' nan maten. Men, Mikal, madan David, avèti mari l'. Li di l': -Si ou pa chape poul ou lannwit lan, denmen maten ou mouri.
12 So Michal let David down through the window; and he went, and fled, and escaped.
Li fè David soti nan yon fennèt. David kouri, li chape kò l'.
13 And Michal took the teraphim, and laid it in the bed, and put a quilt of goats' hair at the head thereof, and covered it with a cloth.
Lè sa a, Mikal pran yon zidòl wogatwa, li mete l' kouche sou kabann lan, li pran yon zòrye fèt ak plim kabrit, li mete l' nan plas tèt la, epi li kouvri tout ak yon dra.
14 And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said: 'He is sick.'
Lè moun Sayil yo vin pou pran David, Mikal di yo David kouche malad.
15 And Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying: 'Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him.'
Men, Sayil voye mesye yo tounen pou y' al wè David ak je yo. Li di yo: -Mennen l' isit ban mwen ak tout kabann li an pou m' fè touye l'.
16 And when the messengers came in, behold, the teraphim was in the bed, with the quilt of goats' hair at the head thereof.
Lè mesye yo antre anndan kay la, yo jwenn estati zidòl wogatwa a sou kabann lan ak zòrye plim kabrit la kote pou tèt la te ye a.
17 And Saul said unto Michal: 'Why hast thou deceived me thus, and let mine enemy go, that he is escaped?' And Michal answered Saul: 'He said unto me: Let me go; why should I kill thee?'
Sayil di Mikal konsa: -Poukisa ou woule m' konsa? Ou kite lènmi mwen an chape. Mikal reponn li: -Li te di m' si m' pa kite l' chape, l'ap touye m'!
18 Now David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
David menm kouri chape kò l', l' al jwenn Samyèl lavil Rama. Li rakonte l' tou sa Sayil te fè l'. Apre sa, li menm ansanm ak Samyèl y' ale rete lavil Najòt.
19 And it was told Saul, saying: 'Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.'
Y' al di Sayil men David te lavil Najòt nan zòn Rama a.
20 And Saul sent messengers to take David; and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, the spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
Sayil voye kèk moun al arete l'. Lè yo rive, yo wè yon gwoup pwofèt ki te gen lespri Bondye a nan tèt yo, avèk Samyèl kanpe devan yo tankou chèf yo. Lamenm lespri Bondye a desann nan tèt moun Sayil te voye yo, epi yo pran fè menm bagay ak pwofèt yo.
21 And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
Yo vin di Sayil sa. Lè sa a, li voye lòt moun ankò. Yo menm tou, yo pran fè menm bagay ak pwofèt yo tou. Yon twazyèm fwa, Sayil voye lòt moun ankò. Yo menm tou, yo pran fè menm bagay ak pwofèt yo.
22 Then went he also to Ramah, and came to the great cistern that is in Secu; and he asked and said: 'Where are Samuel and David?' And one said: 'Behold, they are at Naioth in Ramah.'
Lè sa a, Sayil leve, l' ale li menm lavil Rama. Lè li rive bò gwo sitèn dlo ki lavil Sekou a, li mande kote Samyèl ak David ye. Yo di l' yo lavil Najòt nan zòn Rama a.
23 And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah; and the spirit of God came upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
Li pati dèyè yo. Antan l'ap mache konsa, lespri Bondye a desann nan tèt li tou. Li t'ap fè menm bagay ak pwofèt yo sou tout wout la, jouk li rive devan lavil Najòt nan zòn Rama a.
24 And he also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say: 'Is Saul also among the prophets?'
Li wete tout rad sou li, li fè tankou pwofèt yo devan Samyèl. Apre sa, li tonbe atè a toutouni. Li rete tout rès jounen an ak tout lannwit lan atè a konsa. Se depi lè sa a, yo di: Menm Sayil gen lè pwofèt tou?
