1 Samuel 21
1 And David came to Nob to Achimelech the priest; and Achimelech hastened trembling to meet David, and said unto him, Why art thou alone, and no man is with thee?
Alò, David te rive Nob, vè Achimélec, prèt la. Achimélec te parèt tou tranble lè l te rankontre David, e li te mande li: “Poukisa se ou sèl e pa gen moun avèk ou?”
2 And David said unto Achimelech the priest, The king commanded me a business, and said unto me, Let not any man know the least of the business concerning which I send thee, and which I have commanded thee. And the young men have I appointed to such and such a place.
David te di a Achimélec, prèt la: “Wa a te ban m yon komisyon konsènan yon afè e li te di mwen: ‘Pa kite pèsòn konnen anyen sou afè ke m ap voye ou a. Se sou sila mwen ap pase ba ou lòd la; mwen te dirije mesye yo a yon sèten plas.’
3 And now what hast thou on hand: put five loaves of bread into my hand, or what else can be found.
Konsa, kisa ou gen nan men ou? Ban m senk moso pen oswa nenpòt sa ou kab twouve.”
4 And the priest answered David, and said, I have no common bread on hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men have only withheld themselves from women.
Prèt la te reponn David, e te di: “Nanpwen pen òdinè, men gen pen konsakre; si sèlman mesye yo te kenbe tèt yo lwen fanm.”
5 And David answered the priest and said to him, To a certainty women have been denied us yesterday and the day before, when I went forth, and the vessels of the young men were holy: and if this was the custom with unholy things, how much more will it remain this day holy in the vessels.
David te reponn prèt la e te di li: “Asireman, fanm yo te kenbe lwen de nou kòm dabitid lè m konn pati. Kò a mesye yo te sen, malgre li te yon vwayaj òdinè. Konbyen anplis jodi a kò yo va sen?”
6 So the priest gave him hallowed bread; for there was no bread there except the showbread, that was removed from before the Lord, so as to put down hot bread on the day when it was taken away.
Konsa, prèt la te ba li pen konsakre a, paske pa t gen pen la sof ke pen Prezans ki te retire soti devan SENYÈ a, pou l ta kab ranplase li avèk pen cho menm lè ke li te retire.
7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there on that day, detained before the Lord; and his name was Doeg, the Edomite, the chief of the herdsmen that belonged to Saul.
Alò, youn nan sèvitè a Saül yo te la nan jou sa a, fèmen devan SENYÈ a. Non li se te Doëg, Edomit la, chèf a bèje Saül yo.
8 And David said unto Achimelech, Hast thou not also here at hand a spear or sword: for both my sword as also my other weapons have I not brought with me, because the king's business was urgent.
David te di a Achimélec: “Alò, èske pa gen yon frenn oswa yon nepe ki disponib? Paske mwen pa t mennen ni nepe mwen, ni zam mwen avè m, akoz afè wa a te tèlman ijan.”
9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou didst slay in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped up in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that for thyself, take it; for there is no other save it here. And David said, There is none like that: give it to me.
Alò, prèt la te di: “Nepe Goliath la, Filisten an, ke ou te touye nan vale Ela a. Gade byen, li vlope nan yon twal dèyè efòd la. Si ou vle li, pran l. Paske nanpwen lòt sof ke li menm isit la.” Epi David te di: “Nanpwen lòt tankou li. Ban mwen li.”
10 And David arose, and fled on that day from before Saul, and came to Achish the king of Gath.
Alò, David te leve e te sove ale kite Saül nan jou sa a pou te ale vè Akisch, wa a Gath la.
11 And the servants of Achish said unto him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not of this man sing one to another in the dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
Men sèvitè a Akisch yo te di li: “Èske sa se pa David, wa a peyi a? Èske yo pa t konn chante a sila a pandan yo t ap danse, e t ap di: ‘Saül te touye dè milye pa li e David dè di-milye pa li?’”
12 And David took these words to his heart, and was greatly afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
David te swiv pawòl sa yo nan kè l e te pè Akisch, wa Gath la anpil.
13 And he disguised his reason before their eyes, and played the madman in their hands, and scribbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle run down upon his beard.
Konsa, li te kache bon tèt li devan yo e te aji tankou moun fou pandan li te nan men yo. Li te ekri pa aza yon bann mak sou pòtay avèk pòt yo e te kite krache desann sou bab li.
14 Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see, the man is mad: wherefore then will ye bring him to me?
Akisch te di a sèvitè li yo: “Gade byen, ou wè mesye a ap aji tankou yon moun fou. Poukisa ou mennen li kote mwen?
15 Have I lack of madmen, that ye have brought this man to play his pranks about me? shall this one come into my house?
Èske mwen manke moun fou, pou ou te mennen sila a pou aji tankou moun fou nan prezans mwen? Èske sila a va antre lakay mwen?”
