< 2 Samuel 16 >

1 And when David was a little past the top of the hill, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him, with a couple of donkeys saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves of bread, and an hundred bunches of raisins, and an hundred of summer fruits, and a skin of wine.
Alò, lè David te fin depase krèt la, vwala, Tsiba, sèvitè a Méphiboscheth la te rankontre li avèk yon pè bourik avèk makout. Sou yo, te gen de-san pen, yon santèn grap rezen, yon santèn fwi gran sezon ak yon veso diven.
2 And the king said unto Ziba, What meanest thou by these? And Ziba said, The donkeys be for the king’s household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as be faint in the wilderness may drink.
Wa a te di a Tsiba: “Poukisa ou genyen sila yo?” Epi Tsiba te di: “Bourik yo se pou manm lakay wa yo monte, pen avèk fwi gran sezon an se pou jennonm yo manje e diven an se pou nenpòt moun ki fin pèdi fòs nan dezè a kab bwè.”
3 And the king said, And where is thy master’s son? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he abideth at Jerusalem: for he said, To day shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.
Alò, wa a te di: “Epi kote fis a mèt ou a?” Epi Tsiba te di a wa a: “Men vwala, li rete Jérusalem paske li te di: ‘Jodi a, lakay Israël la va restore wayòm papa m nan a mwen menm.’”
4 Then said the king to Ziba, Behold, thine are all that pertained unto Mephibosheth. And Ziba said, I humbly beseech thee that I may find grace in thy sight, my lord, O king.
Konsa, wa a te di a Tsiba: “Men vwala, tout sa ki apatyen a Méphiboscheth se pou ou.” Epi Tsiba te di: “Mwen vin bese devan ou nèt; kite mwen twouve gras nan zye ou, O mèt mwen, wa a!”
5 And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, thence came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera: he came forth, and cursed still as he came.
Lè Wa David te rive Bachurim, gade byen, te sòti depi la yon mesye ki sòti nan fanmi Saül ki te rele Schimeï, fis a Guéra a. Li te parèt ak pawòl madichon san rete pandan li t ap pwoche.
6 And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
Li te jete wòch sou David, sou tout sèvitè a Wa David yo e tout mesye gran kouraj yo te sou men dwat li ak sou men goch li.
7 And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial:
Konsa, Schimeï te di pandan li t ap voye madichon yo: “Sòti la, sòti la, moun ki vèse san, sanzave!
8 Yhwh hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; And Yhwh hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and, behold, thou art taken in thy mischief, because thou art a bloody man.
SENYÈ a gen tan mete sou ou tout san koule lakay Saül, nan plas kote ou te renye a! SENYÈ a te lage wayòm nan nan men fis ou, Absalom. Epi gade, ou pran nan pwòp mechanste ou, paske ou se yon nonm ki vèse san!”
9 Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.
Alò, Abischai, fis a Tseruja a te di a wa a: “Poukisa chen mouri sa a ta dwe modi mèt mwen an, wa a? Kite mwen janbe ale koupe tèt li.”
10 And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, because Yhwh hath said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Wherefore hast thou done so?
Men wa a te di: “Kisa mwen gen avè w, O fis a Tseruja? Si li bay madichon, e si SENYÈ a te di li ‘Modi David’, alò, se kilès k ap di: ‘Poukisa ou te fè sa?’”
11 And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, which came forth of my bowels, seeketh my life: how much more now may this Benjamite do it? let him alone, and let him curse; for Yhwh hath bidden him.
Alò, David te di a Abischaï e a tout sèvitè li yo: “Gade, fis mwen ki te sòti nan mwen an koulye a ap chache lavi m. Konbyen anplis pou Benjamit sila a? Kite li e kite li bay madichon, paske SENYÈ a te pale li.
12 It may be that Yhwh will look on mine affliction, and that Yhwh will requite me good for his cursing this day.
Petèt SENYÈ a va gade afliksyon mwen e remete m bon olye madichon pa sila a nan jou sa a.”
13 And as David and his men went by the way, Shimei went along on the hill’s side over against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust.
Konsa, David avèk mesye pa li yo te fè wout yo. Epi Schimeï te mache akote pant mòn nan vizavi de yo menm. Pandan li t ap prale, li te modi, li te jete wòch, e li te jete pousyè bò kote li.
14 And the king, and all the people that were with him, came weary, and refreshed themselves there.
Wa a avèk tout moun ki te avèk li yo te rive byen fatige, e yo te vin rafrechi la.
15 And Absalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
Alò, Absalom avèk tout pèp la, mesye Israël yo te antre Jérusalem e Achitophel avèk li.
16 And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David’s friend, was come unto Absalom, that Hushai said unto Absalom, God save the king, God save the king.
Konsa, li te vin rive lè Huschaï, Akyen an, zanmi a David la te rive kote Absalom, ke Huschaï te di: “Viv wa a! Viv wa a!”
17 And Absalom said to Hushai, Is this thy kindness to thy friend? why wentest thou not with thy friend?
Absalom te di Huschaï: “Èske sa se fidelite ou pou zanmi ou? Poukisa ou pa t ale avèk zanmi ou an?”
18 And Hushai said unto Absalom, Nay; but whom Yhwh, and this people, and all the men of Israel, choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.
Epi Huschaï te di a Absalom: “Non, paske sila ke SENYÈ a, pèp sa a e tout mesye Israël yo te chwazi a, se pou li menm, mwen va ye, e avèk li menm, mwen va rete.
19 And again, whom should I serve? should I not serve in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father’s presence, so will I be in thy presence.
Anplis de sa, se kilès pou m ta sèvi? Se pa nan prezans a fis li a? Jis jan ke m te sèvi nan prezans papa ou a, konsa mwen va ye nan prezans pa w.”
20 Then said Absalom to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.
Alò, Absalom te di a Achitophel: “Ban m konsèy pa w Kisa nou dwe fè?”
21 And Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Go in unto thy father’s concubines, which he hath left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art abhorred of thy father: then shall the hands of all that are with thee be strong.
Achitophel te di a Absalom: “Antre nan ti mennaj papa ou te lese pou okipe kay la; epi tout Israël va tande ke ou te fè tèt ou rayisab a papa ou. Anplis, men a tout sila ki avèk ou yo va vin ranfòse.”
22 So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.
Konsa yo te monte yon tant anwo tèt kay la, epi Absalom te antre nan relasyon seksyèl ak tout konkibin papa l yo, devan zye a tout Israël.
23 And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had enquired at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
Konsèy a Achitophel te konn bay nan jou sa yo te konsidere tankou si yon moun te mande konsèy a pawòl Bondye. Se te konsa tout konsèy Achitophel te ye pou David ak Absalom.
