1 Samuel 21
1 Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest; and Ahimelech came to meet David trembling, and said unto him: 'Why art thou alone, and no man with thee?'
David ale lakay Akimelèk, prèt la, nan lavil Nòb. Akimelèk soti vin kontre l', li te tou ap tranble. Li di l' konsa: -Poukisa ou vin pou kont ou, san moun avè ou?
2 And David said unto Ahimelech the priest: 'The king hath commanded me a business, and hath said unto me: Let no man know any thing of the business whereabout I send thee, and what I have commanded thee; and the young men have I appointed to such and such a place.
David reponn li: -Wa a voye m' regle yon bagay pou li. Li di m' pa kite pesonn konnen sa li voye m' fè a. Pou moun ki avè m' yo, mwen ba yo randevou yon kote.
3 Now therefore what is under thy hand? five loaves of bread? give them in my hand, or whatsoever there is present.'
Bon, koulye a, kisa ou gen la a pou moun manje? Ban m' senk pen ou nenpòt lòt sa ou genyen.
4 And the priest answered David, and said: 'There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women.'
Prèt la di l': -Mwen pa gen pen òdinè la a non. Sèl sa mwen genyen se pen yo mete apa pou Bondye. Mwen ka ba ou li, si ou konnen mesye ou yo pa nan anyen ak fanm depi kèk jou.
5 And David answered the priest, and said unto him: 'Of a truth women have been kept from us about these three days; when I came out, the vessels of the young men were holy, though it was but a common journey; how much more then to-day, when there shall be holy bread in their vessels?'
David reponn li: -Se toujou konsa, lè nou nan misyon, nou pa nan anyen ak fanm menm. Sou pwen sa a, depi m'ap soti ak mesye m' yo, li te mèt pou yon misyon òdinè, mesye m' yo fèt pou toujou nan kondisyon pou yo fè sèvis Bondye, ale wè fwa sa a se pou yon misyon espesyal.
6 So the priest gave him holy bread; for there was no bread there but the showbread, that was taken from before the LORD, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away. —
Se konsa prèt la pran nan pen yo te mete apa pou Bondye yo, li ba li paske sèl sa li te genyen se pen yo te ofri bay Bondye chak jou a. Yo te fèk wete yo sou tab la devan Seyè a pou yo te mete lòt pen fre.
7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD; and his name was Doeg the Edomite, the chiefest of the herdmen that belonged to Saul. —
Men jou sa a, Doèg, yon moun peyi Edon, yonn nan domestik Sayil yo, te la tou, paske li te gen yon bèt pou l' te ofri pou Seyè a. Se li ki te chèf tout gadò mouton Sayil yo.
8 And David said unto Ahimelech: 'And is there peradventure here under thy hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste.'
David di Akimelèk ankò: -Eske ou gen yon frenn osinon yon nepe la a ou ka ban mwen? Paske, wa a te ban m' lòd pou m' te pati prese prese, mwen pa t' gen tan pran ni nepe mwen, ni ankenn lòt zam.
9 And the priest said: 'The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the vale of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod; if thou wilt take that, take it; for there is no other save that here.' And David said: 'There is none like that; give it me.'
Akimelèk di li: -Mwen gen nepe Golyat, sòlda Filisti ou te touye nan Fon Bwadchenn lan. Men li la dèyè Bwat kontra a, li vlope nan yon moso twal. Si ou vle l', ou mèt pran l'. Se sèl zam ki gen isit la. David di li: -Ban mwen li non! Pa gen pi bon pase l'.
10 And David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
Lèfini, David pati, li sove pou Sayil, l' ale lakay Akich, wa lavil Gat la.
11 And the servants of Achish said unto him: 'Is not this David the king of the land? Did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying: Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?'
Moun wa Akich yo di wa a konsa: -Se pa David sa, wa peyi a? Se pou li medam yo te fè chante yo t'ap chante lè yo t'ap danse a, chante ki di: Sayil desann mil! David desann dimil!
12 And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
Pawòl sa yo te aji anpil sou David. Li vin pè Akich, wa lavil Gat la.
13 And he changed his demeanour before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard.
Li pran pòz moun fou li devan yo tout. Li aji tankou yon moun fou lè yo mete men sou li. Li pran fè grabji ak dwèt li sou pòt yo, li kite bave koule sou tout bab li.
14 Then said Achish unto his servants: 'Lo, when ye see a man that is mad, wherefore do ye bring him to me?
Lè sa a, Akich di moun li yo: -Nou pa wè se yon moun fou? Poukisa nou mennen l' ban mwen?
15 Do I lack madmen, that ye have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house?'
Mwen pa gen kont moun fou avè m' deja? Poukisa nou mennen sa a ankò vin plede fè tenten andedan lakay mwen an?
