2 Samuel 11
1 And it came to pass, at the return of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem.
Nan prentan apre sa, nan epòk wa yo konn soti pou al fè lagè, David voye Joab ansanm ak tout lòt ofisye yo alatèt lame pèp Izrayèl la al goumen ak moun Amon yo. Yo ravaje peyi Amon an, yo sènen lavil Raba. David menm te rete lavil Jerizalèm.
2 And it came to pass at eventide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house; and from the roof he saw a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
Yon jou, bò aswè, David te fin fè yon ti poze, li leve, li soti al sou teras ki anwo palè a. Antan li la, li wè yon fanm ki t'ap benyen. Fanm lan te bèl anpil.
3 And David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said: 'Is not this Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?'
Li voye chache konnen ki moun fanm lan te ye. Yo vin di l' se Batcheba, pitit fi Eliyam lan, madan Ouri, moun peyi Et la.
4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness; and she returned unto her house.
David voye mesaje al chache l' mennen l' ba li, li kouche avè l'. Lè sa a Batcheba te fèk fin fè sèvis pou l' fè apre règ li. Apre sa, Batcheba tounen lakay li.
5 And the woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said: 'I am with child.'
Fanm lan vin ansent. Li voye nouvèl bay David pou fè l' konn sa.
6 And David sent to Joab, saying: 'Send me Uriah the Hittite.' And Joab sent Uriah to David.
David voye yon mesaj bay Joab, li mande l' pou l' voye Ouri, moun peyi Et la, ba li. Se konsa, Joab voye Ouri bay David.
7 And when Uriah was come unto him, David asked of him how Joab did, and how the people fared, and how the war prospered.
Lè Ouri rive, David mande l' nouvèl Joab ak sòlda yo, ki jan batay la ye.
8 And David said to Uriah: 'Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet.' And Uriah departed out of the king's house, and there followed him a mess of food from the king.
Apre sa, li di Ouri: -Desann al lakay ou non! Al poze kò ou! Ouri soti. David voye yon kado pou li lakay li.
9 But Uriah slept at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
Men Ouri pa al lakay li. Li kouche bò pòtay palè a ansanm ak tout lòt sòlda wa yo.
10 And when they had told David, saying: 'Uriah went not down unto his house', David said unto Uriah: 'Art thou not come from a journey? wherefore didst thou not go down unto thy house?'
Lè David vin konnen Ouri pa t' al lakay li, li mande l': -Ou fèk antre soti nan vwayaj, poukisa ou pa al lakay ou?
11 And Uriah said unto David: 'The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in booths; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open field; shall I then go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? as thou livest, and as thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.'
Ouri reponn David: -Sòlda Izrayèl yo ak sòlda Jida yo byen lwen ap fè lagè, Bwat Kontra Seyè a ansanm ak yo. Kòmandan Joab ak lòt chèf lame monwa yo ap pase nwit deyò nan plenn yo. Ki jan ou vle pou m' al lakay mwen, manje, bwè, kouche ak madanm mwen? Mwen fè sèman sou tèt ou, menm jan ou vivan an, m' pa ka janm fè bagay konsa.
12 And David said to Uriah: 'Tarry here to-day also, and to-morrow I will let thee depart.' So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.
David di li: -Bon. Ou mèt rete pase rès jounen an isit la. Denmen m'a voye ou ale. Se konsa, Ouri rete lavil Jerizalèm pou de jou ankò.
13 And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk; and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house.
David envite l' vin manje avè l'. Li fè l' bwè jouk li sou. Men jou swa sa a tou, Ouri pa desann al lakay li. Li kouche sou kabann li ansanm ak sòlda palè wa yo.
14 And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
Nan denmen, David ekri Joab yon lèt, li bay Ouri pote l' ale.
15 And he wrote in the letter, saying: 'Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.'
Nan lèt la, li te ekri: W'a mete Ouri devan nèt, kote batay la pi cho a. Apre sa, rale kò ou dèyè, kite yo touye l'.
16 And it came to pass, when Joab kept watch upon the city, that he assigned Uriah unto the place where he knew that valiant men were.
Se konsa, Joab ki te sènen lavil Raba a voye Ouri kote li te konnen lènmi yo te pi fò a.
17 And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab; and there fell some of the people, even of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also.
Lame lènmi yo soti nan lavil la, yo vin kontre ak lame Joab la. Gen anpil sòlda ak anpil ofisye lame David la ki te mouri. Ouri, moun peyi Et la, mouri tou.
18 Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;
Joab voye rakonte David tout ti detay sou jan batay la pase.
19 and he charged the messenger, saying: 'When thou hast made an end of telling all the things concerning the war unto the king,
Epi li bay mesaje a lòd sa a: -Lè w'a fin rakonte wa a tout ti detay batay la,
20 it shall be that, if the king's wrath arise, and he say unto thee: Wherefore went ye so nigh unto the city to fight? knew ye not that they would shoot from the wall?
li ka fè kòlè, li ka di ou: Poukisa nou te pwoche pre lavil la konsa pou m' te goumen ak lènmi yo? Se konnen nou pa konnen yo te ka rete sou tèt miray la pou yo tire flèch sou nou?
21 who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast an upper millstone upon him from the wall, that he died at Thebez? why went ye so nigh the wall? then shalt thou say: Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.'
Nou gen lè bliye jan Abimelèk, pitit Jedeyon an te mouri lavil Tebès? Se yon fanm ki te rete sou tèt miray la, li voye yo wòl moulen sou li, li touye l' frèt. Poukisa atò nou te pwoche pre lavil la konsa? Si wa a pale konsa avè ou, w'a di l': Ouri, moun peyi Et la, ofisye lame ou la, mouri tou.
22 So the messenger went, and came and told David all that Joab had sent him for.
Mesaje a ale, li rakonte David tou sa Joab te ba li lòd rakonte l' la.
23 And the messenger said unto David: 'The men prevailed against us, and came out unto us into the field, and we were upon them even unto the entrance of the gate.
Li di l': -Lènmi nou yo te pi fò pase nou. Yo fè yon soti nan lavil la, yo vin goumen avè nou nan plenn lan. Men nou fè yo kase tèt tounen, nou kouri dèyè yo jouk devan pòtay lavil la.
24 And the shooters shot at thy servants from off the wall; and some of the king's servants are dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.'
Se lè sa a, yo rete sou tèt miray yo, yo voye flèch sou nou. Gen kèk ofisye lame wa a ki mouri. Ouri, moun peyi Et la, ofisye wa a, mouri tou.
25 Then David said unto the messenger: 'Thus shalt thou say unto Joab: Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devoureth in one manner or another; make thy battle more strong against the city, and overthrow it; and encourage thou him.'
David di mesaje a: -Ankouraje Joab. Di li li pa bezwen kite sa fatige l' twòp. Se toujou konsa lè y'ap fè lagè. Ou pa janm konnen kilès ki pral mouri. Di li pare pou li fè yon gwo atak sou lavil la pou li pran l'.
26 And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she made lamentation for her husband.
Lè Batcheba vin pran nouvèl mari l' te mouri, li pran lapenn pou li.
27 And when the mourning was past, David sent and took her home to his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.
Lè seremoni lantèman yo fini, David voye chache l', li pran l' lakay li. Batcheba vin madanm li. Li fè yon pitit gason pou David. Men, sa David te fè a pa t' fè Seyè a plezi menm.
