Kings II 21
1 And there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the Lord. And the Lord said, [There is] guilt upon Saul and his house because of his bloody murder, whereby he killed the Gabaonites.
Alò, te gen yon gwo grangou nan jou a David yo pandan twazan, ane apre ane. Epi David te chache prezans a SENYÈ a. SENYÈ a te di: “Se akoz Saül ak kay sanglan li an, akoz li te mete Gabawonit yo a lanmò.”
2 And King David called the Gabaonites, and said to them; —(now the Gabaonites are not the children of Israel, but [are] of the remnant of the Amorite, and the children of Israel had sworn to them: but Saul sought to strike them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Juda.)
Pou sa, wa a te rele Gabawonit yo pou te pale yo. (Alò, Gabawonit yo pa t nan fis Israël yo men yo te nan retay Amoreyen yo e fis Israël yo te fè yon akò avèk yo. Men Saül te chache touye yo nan zèl li genyen pou fis a Juda yo avèk Israël yo.)
3 And David said to the Gabaonites, What shall I do to you? and wherewithal shall I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of the Lord?
Konsa, David te di a Gabawonit yo: “Kisa mwen ta dwe fè pou nou? Epi kijan mwen kapab fè ekspiyasyon, pou nou kapab vin beni eritaj SENYÈ a?”
4 And the Gabaonites said to him, We have no [question about] silver or gold with Saul and with his house; and there is no man for us to put to death in Israel.
Alò, Gabawonit yo te di li: “Nou pa sou afè ajan, ni lò avèk Saül, ni lakay li, ni pou nou ta mete okenn moun a lanmò an Israël.” Epi li te di: “Mwen va fè pou nou nenpòt sa ke nou mande.”
5 And he said, What say you? speak, and I will do it for you. And they said to the king, The man who would have made an end of us, and persecuted us, who plotted against us to destroy us, let us utterly destroy him, so that he shall have no standing in all the coasts of Israel.
Pou sa, yo te di a wa a: “Nonm ki te vin manje nou an e ki te fè plan pou detwi nou nèt la rache nou soti nan lizyè Israël la,
6 Let one give us seven men of his sons, and let us hang them up in the sun to the Lord in Gabaon of Saul, as chosen out for the Lord. And the king said, I will give [them].
kite sèt mesye soti nan fis li yo vin bay a nou menm. E nou va pann yo devan SENYÈ a nan Guibea pou Saül, sila ki te chwazi pa SENYÈ a.” Epi wa a te di: “Mwen va bay yo.”
7 But the king spared Memphibosthe son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the oath of the Lord that was between them, even between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
Men wa a te bay pwotèj a Méphiboscheth, fis a Jonathan an, fis a Saül la, akoz sèman a SENYÈ a ki te fèt antre yo, antre David ak fis a Saül la, Jonathan.
8 And the king took the two sons of Respha the daughter of Aia, whom she bore to Saul, Hermonoi and Memphibosthe, and the five sons of Michol daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Esdriel son of Berzelli the Moulathite.
Konsa, wa a te pran de fis a Ritspa yo avèk fi a Ajja a, Armoni ak Méphiboscheth ke li te fè pou Saül la, senk fis a Mérab yo, fi a Saül la, ke li te fè pou Adriel, fis a Barzillaï a, Meyolayit la;
9 And he gave them into the hand of the Gabaonites, and they hanged them up to the sun in the mountain before the lord: and they fell, even the seven together: moreover they were put to death in the days of harvest at the commencement, in the beginning of barley harvest.
Epi li te livre yo nan men a Gabawonit yo e yo te pandye yo nan mòn nan devan SENYÈ a, jiskaske yo sèt te tonbe ansanm. Yo te mete a lanmò nan premye jou a rekòlt la, nan kòmansman rekòlt lòj la.
10 And Respha the daughter of Aia took sackcloth, and fixed it for herself on the rock in the beginning of barley harvest, until water dropped upon them out of heaven: and she did not suffer the birds of the air to rest upon them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
Epi Rizpa, fi a Ajja a te pran twal sak e te ouvri li sou wòch la, soti nan kòmansman rekòlt la jiskaske li te fè lapli sou yo soti nan syèl la. Li pa t kite ni zwazo syèl yo vin poze sou yo nan lajounen, ni bèt chan yo pandan lannwit.
11 And it was told David what Respha the daughter of Aia the concubine of Saul had done, [and they were faint, and Dan, the son of Joa of the offspring of the giants overtook them.]
Lè li te pale a David sa ke Rizpa, fi a Ajja a, ti mennaj a Saül la te fè a,
12 And David went and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the men of the sons of Jabis Galaad, who stole them from the street of Baethsan; for the Philistines set them there in the day in which the Philistines struck Saul in Gelbue.
alò, David te ale pran zo a Saül ak zo a Jonathan, fis li a soti nan men a mesye Jabès-Galaad la, ki te vòlè yo nan laplas Beth-Schan kote Filisten yo te pandye yo nan jou ke Filisten yo te frape Saül nan Guilboa a.
13 And he carried up thence the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son, and gathered the bones of them that had been hanged.
Li te mennen zo a Saül ak zo a Jonathan yo monte, fis li soti la e yo te ranmase zo a sila ki te pandye yo.
14 And they buried the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son, and the bones of them that had been hanged, in the land of Benjamin in the hill, in the sepulchre of Cis his father; and they did all things that the king commanded: and after this God listened to [the prayers of] the land.
Yo te antere zo a Saül yo avèk Jonathan, fis li nan peyi Benjamin nan Tséla, nan tonm a Kis, papa li. Konsa, yo te fè tout sa ke wa a te kòmande yo. Apre sa, Bondye te satisfè akoz lapriyè pou peyi a.
15 And there was yet war between the Philistines and Israel: and David went down and his servants with him, and they fought with the Philistines, and David went.
Alò, lè Filisten yo te fè lagè ankò avèk Israël, David te desann avèk sèvitè li yo. Epi pandan yo t ap goumen kont Filisten yo, David te vin bouke.
16 And Jesbi, who was of the progeny of Rapha, and the head of whose spear [was] three hundred shekels of brass in weight, who also was girded with a club, even he thought to strike David.
Epi Jischbi-Benob ki te pami desandan a jeyan yo, avèk yon lans ki te peze twa-san sik an bwonz, te gen yon nepe nèf nan senti l e li te gen entansyon pou l ta touye David.
17 And Abessa the son of Saruia helped him and struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore, saying, You shall not any longer go out with us to battle, and you shall not quench the lamp of Israel.
Men Abischaï, fis a Tseruja a te ede li, li te frape Filisten an pou te touye li. Epi mesye David yo te fè ve a li e te di: “Wa David, ou p ap sòti avèk nou ankò nan batay la pou ou pa vin etenn lanp Israël la.”
18 And after this there was a battle again with the Philistines in Geth: then Sebocha the Astatothite killed Seph of the progeny of Rapha.
Alò, li te vin rive apre sa ke te gen lagè ankò avèk Filisten yo nan Gob. Epi Sibbecaï, Oushatit la te frape Saph, ki te pami desandan a jeyan yo.
19 And there was a battle in Rom with the Philistines; and Eleanan son of Ariorgim the Bethleemite killed Goliath the Gittite; and the staff of his spear [was] as a weaver's beam.
Te gen gè avèk Filisten yo ankò Gob e Elchanan, fis a Jaaré-Oreguim nan Bethléhem te touye Goliath, moun Gath la. Shaf lans li an te tankou travès lan a yon machin yo konn tise.
20 And there was yet a battle in Geth: and there was a man of stature, and the fingers of his hands and the toes of his feet [were] six on each, four and twenty in number: and he also was born to Rapha.
Te gen lagè avèk Gath ankò, kote te gen yon mesye gran tay avèk sis dwèt nan chak men ak sis zòtèy nan chak pye, venn-kat antou. Li menm osi te ne de jeyan yo.
21 And he defied Israel, and Jonathan son of Semei brother of David, struck him.
Lè li te leve tèt li kont Israël, Jonathan, fis a Schimea a, frè David la, te frape li.
22 These four were born descendants of the giants in Geth, the family of Rapha; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
Se kat sila yo ki te ne de jeyan nan Gath yo, e yo te tonbe pa men David e pa men a sèvitè li yo.
