Kings I 19
1 And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, to kill David.
Alò, Saül te pale Jonathan, fis li a ak tout sèvitè li yo pou mete David a lanmò. Men Jonathan fis a Saül la te fè kè kontan anpil akoz David.
2 And Jonathan, Saul's son, loved David much: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul seeks to kill you: take heed to yourself therefore to-morrow morning, and hide yourself, and dwell in secret.
Pou sa, Jonathan te pale David. Li te di: “Papa m vle mete ou a lanmò. Pou sa, souple, veye anpil nan maten an. Ale nan kote kache a, e rete la.
3 And I will go forth, and stand near my father in the field where you shall be, and I will speak concerning you to my father; and I will see what his answer may be, and I will tell you.
Mwen va sòti e kanpe akote papa m nan chan kote ou ye a. Mwen va pale avèk papa m selon ou menm. Epi si mwen vin konprann yon bagay, alò, mwen va di ou.”
4 And Jonathan spoke favorably concerning David to Saul his father, and said to him, Let not the king sin against your servant David, for he has not sinned against you, and his deeds [are] very good.
Konsa, Jonathan te pale ak Saül, papa li, kèk bon pawòl sou David. Li te di li: “Pa kite wa a peche kont sèvitè li, David. Paske li menm pa t peche kont ou; akoz zèv pa li yo, li te ede ou anpil.
5 And he put his life in his hand, and struck the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great deliverance; and all Israel saw, and rejoined: why then do you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?
Paske li te pran vi li nan men l. Li te frape Filisten an, e SENYÈ a te fè rive yon gran delivrans pou tout Israël. Ou te wè e ou te rejwi. Konsa, poukisa ou ta peche kont san inosan an nan mete David a lanmò san koz?”
6 And Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore, saying, [As] the Lord lives, he shall not die.
Saül te koute vwa a Jonathan, e Saül te fè ve: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, li p ap mete a lanmò.”
7 And Jonathan called David, and told him all these words; and Jonathan brought David in to Saul, and he was before him as in former times.
Alò, Jonathan te rele David e li te di li tout pawòl sila yo. Epi Jonathan te mennen David vè Saül, e li te vin nan prezans li kòm oparavan.
8 And there was again war against Saul; and David did valiantly, and fought against the Philistines, and struck them with a very great slaughter, and they fled from before him.
Lè te gen lagè ankò, David te sòti pou te goumen avèk Filisten yo, e te bat yo avèk yon gwo masak, jiskaske yo te sove ale devan li.
9 And an evil spirit from God was upon Saul, and he was resting in his house, and a spear [was] in his hand, and David was playing on the harp with his hands.
Alò, te genyen yon move lespri ki sòti nan SENYÈ a sou Saül pandan li te chita lakay li avèk yon frenn nan men li, pandan David t ap jwe ap la avèk men li.
10 And Saul sought to strike David with the spear; and David withdrew [suddenly] from the presence of Saul; and he drove the spear into the wall; and David retreated and escaped.
Saül te tante frennen David pou kloure li nan mi an avèk frenn nan, men li te chape kite prezans a Saül. Konsa, frenn nan te kloure nan mi lan. David te sove ale e te pran flit menm nwit sa.
11 And it came to pass in that night, that Saul sent messengers to the house of David to watch him, in order to kill him in the morning; and Melchol David's wife told him, saying, Unless you save your life this night, to-morrow you shall be slain.
Saül te voye mesaje yo lakay David pou yo ta veye li, avèk entansyon pou mete l a lanmò nan maten an. Men Mical, madanm a David la te avèti li. Li te di: “Si ou pa sove lavi ou aswè a, demen ou va mete a lanmò.”
12 So Melchol lets David down by the window, and he departed, and fled, and escaped.
Konsa, Mical te fè David lagedesann nan yon fenèt. Li te sòti deyò e te chape ale.
13 And Melchol took images, and laid them on the bed, and she put the liver of a goat by his head, and covered them with clothes.
Mical te pran zidòl kay la e li te poze li sou kabann nan. Li te mete yon kouvèti fèt avèk plim kabrit kote tèt li e te kouvri li avèk rad.
14 And Saul sent messengers to take David; and they say that he is sick.
Lè Saül te voye mesaje yo pran David, li te di: “Li malad.”
15 And he sends to David, saying, Bring him to me on the bed, that I may kill him.
Alò, Saül te voye mesaje yo wè David, e li te di: “Mennen li monte kote mwen sou kabann li, pou m kab mete l a lanmò.”
16 And the messengers come, and, behold, the images [were] on the bed, and the goat's liver at his head.
Lè mesaje yo te antre, gade byen, zidòl kay la te sou kabann nan avèk kouvèti plim kabrit la sou tèt li.
17 And Saul said to Melchol, Why have you thus deceived me, and suffered my enemy to depart, and he has escaped? and Melchol said to Saul, He said, let me go, and if not, I will kill you.
Konsa, Saül te di a Mical: “Poukisa ou te twonpe m konsa e kite lènmi mwen an ale jiskaske li vin chape?” Mical te reponn Saül: “Li te di mwen, ‘Kite mwen ale! Poukisa mwen ta bezwen mete ou a lanmò?’”
18 So David fled, and escaped, and comes to Samuel to Armathaim, and tells him all that Saul had done to him: and Samuel and David went, and lived in Navath in Rama.
Alò David te sove ale e te chape rive vè Samuel nan Rama. Epi li te di li tout sa ke Saül te fè l. Li menm avèk Samuel te ale rete Najoth.
19 And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David [is] in Navath in Rama.
Koze sa a te rive kote Saül ke: “Gade byen, David nan Najoth nan Rama.”
20 And Saul sent messengers to take David, and they saw the assembly of the prophets, and Samuel stood [as] appointed over them; and the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they prophesy.
Epi Saül te voye mesaje yo pran David. Men lè yo te wè konpayi pwofèt yo ki t ap pwofetize ansanm avèk Samuel, ki te kanpe kòm dirijans sou yo, Lespri Bondye te vini sou mesaje Saül la, epi yo tou te pwofetize.
21 And it was told Saul, and he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied: and Saul sent again a third set of messengers, and they also prophesied.
Lè sa te pale a Saül, li te voye lòt mesaje. Epi yo menm tou te vin pwofetize. Alò, Saül te voye mesaje yon twazyèm fwa, e yo anplis te pwofetize.
22 And Saul was very angry, and went himself also to Armathaim, and he comes as far as the well of the threshing floor that is in Sephi; and he asked and said, Where [are] Samuel and David? And they said, Behold, in Navath in Rama.
Epi li menm tou te ale Rama pou kont li e te rive jis nan gran pwi ki nan Secu a. Li te pale e te di: “Kote Samuel avèk David?” Epi yon moun te di: “Veye byen, yo nan Najoth nan Rama.”
23 And he went thence to Navath in Rama: and there came the Spirit of God upon him also, and he went on prophesying till he came to Navath in Rama.
Li te kontinye jis rive nan Najoth nan Rama. Konsa, Lespri Bondye te vini sou li tou jiskaske li t ap pwofetize pandan nan wout la pou rive kote Najoth nan Rama a.
24 And he took off his clothes, and prophesied before them; and lay down naked all that day and all that night: therefore they said, [Is] Saul also among the prophets?
Anplis, li te retire rad li, li tou te pwofetize devan Samuel e li te kouche toutouni tout jounen an ak tout nwit lan. Pou sa, yo konn di: “Èske Saül, osi, pami pwofèt yo?”
