< 1 Samuel 19 >

1 And Saul speaks to his son Jonathan, and to all his servants, to put David to death,
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 son of Saul delighted in David exceedingly, and Jonathan declares [it] to David, saying, “My father Saul is seeking to put you to death, and now, please take heed in the morning, and you have abided in a secret place and been hidden,
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 go out, and have stood by the side of my father in the field where you [are], and I speak of you to my father, and have seen what [is coming], and have declared [it] to 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 speaks good of David to his father Saul and says to him, “Do not let the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinned against you, and because his works [are] very good for you;
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 indeed, he puts his life in his hand, and strikes the Philistine, and YHWH works a great salvation for all Israel; you have seen, and rejoice, and why do you sin against innocent blood, to put David to death for nothing?”
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 listens to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swears, “YHWH lives—he does 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 calls for David, and Jonathan declares all these words to him, and Jonathan brings in David to Saul, and he is before him as before.
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 adds to be war, and David goes out and fights against the Philistines, and strikes among them [with] a great striking, and they flee from his face.
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 a spirit of sadness [from] YHWH is to Saul, and he is sitting in his house, and his javelin [is] in his hand, and David is playing with the hand,
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 seeks to strike with the javelin through David, and through the wall, and he frees himself from the presence of Saul, and he strikes the javelin through the wall; and David has fled and escapes during that night.
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 Saul sends messengers to the house of David to watch him, and to put him to death in the morning; and his wife Michal declares [it] to David, saying, “If you are not delivering your life tonight—tomorrow you are put to death.”
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 And Michal causes David to go down through the window, and he goes on, and flees, and escapes;
Konsa, Mical te fè David lagedesann nan yon fenèt. Li te sòti deyò e te chape ale.
13 and Michal takes the teraphim, and lays [it] on the bed, and she has put the mattress of goats’ [hair for] his pillows, and covers [it] with a garment.
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 sends messengers to take David, and she says, “He [is] sick.”
Lè Saül te voye mesaje yo pran David, li te di: “Li malad.”
15 And Saul sends the messengers to see David, saying, “Bring him up in the bed to me in order to put him to death.”
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 in, and behold, the teraphim [are] on the bed, and the mattress of goats’ [hair for] his pillows.
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 says to Michal, “Why have you thus deceived me—that you send my enemy away, and he escapes?” And Michal says to Saul, “He said to me, Send me away. Why do I put you to death?”
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 And David has fled, and escapes, and comes to Samuel at Ramath, and declares to him all that Saul has done to him, and he goes, he and Samuel, and they dwell in Naioth.
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 is declared to Saul, saying, “Behold, David [is] in Naioth in Ramah.”
Koze sa a te rive kote Saül ke: “Gade byen, David nan Najoth nan Rama.”
20 And Saul sends messengers to take David, and they see the assembly of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing, set over them, and the Spirit of God is on Saul’s messengers, and they prophesy—they also.
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 they declare [it] to Saul, and he sends other messengers, and they prophesy—they also; and Saul adds and sends messengers a third time, and they prophesy—they also.
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 he goes—he also—to Ramath, and comes to the great well which [is] in Sechu, and asks and says, “Where [are] Samuel and David?” And [one] says, “Behold, in Naioth in Ramah.”
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 goes there—to Naioth in Ramah, and the Spirit of God is on him also; and he goes, going on, and he prophesies until his coming to Naioth in Ramah,
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 strips off—he also—his garments, and prophesies—he also—before Samuel, and falls down naked all that day and all the night; therefore they say, “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?”
