< 1 Samuel 28 >
1 And it comes to pass in those days, that the Philistines gather their camps for the war, to fight against Israel, and Achish says to David, “You certainly know that you go out with me into the camp, you and your men.”
Kèk tan apre sa, moun Filisti yo sanble tout sòlda yo pou y' al goumen ak pèp Izrayèl la. Lè sa a, Akich di David: -Ou tou konnen se pou ou pati ansanm avè m' ak mesye ou yo pou n' al goumen.
2 And David says to Achish, “Therefore you know that which your servant does.” And Achish says to David, “Therefore I appoint you keeper of my head [for] all the days.”
David reponn li: -Se moun ou mwen ye. Ou pral wè sa m' ka fè. Akich di li: -Bon! Apre sa, m'ap fè ou gad kò mwen pou tout tan.
3 And Samuel has died, and all Israel mourns for him, and buries him in Ramah, even in his city, and Saul has turned aside those having familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.
Samyèl te deja mouri lè sa a, tout pèp Izrayèl la te kriye kont kriye yo pou li. Apre sa, yo antere l' lavil Rama kote li te moun. Sayil te mete tout divinò deyò nan peyi a ansanm ak tout moun ki konn rele mò pou pale ak yo.
4 And the Philistines are gathered, and come in, and encamp in Shunem, and Saul gathers all Israel, and they encamp in Gilboa,
Sòlda moun Filisti yo te sanble, yo moute kan yo bò lavil Chounèm. Sayil menm sanble tout sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo, epi li moute kan l' sou mòn Gilboa.
5 and Saul sees the camp of the Philistines, and fears, and his heart trembles greatly,
Lè Sayil wè lame moun Filisti yo, li soti pè, kè l' pran bat byen fò.
6 and Saul inquires of YHWH, and YHWH has not answered him, either by the dreams, or by the Lights, or by the prophets.
Se konsa, li mande Seyè a sa pou l' fè. Men, Seyè a pa ba li ankenn repons, ni nan rèv, ni avèk ourim yo, ni nan mesaj pwofèt yo.
7 And Saul says to his servants, “Seek a woman for me possessing a familiar spirit, and I go to her, and inquire of her”; and his servants say to him, “Behold, a woman possessing a familiar spirit [is] in En-dor.”
Lè sa a, Sayil rele moun k'ap sèvi avè l' yo, li ba yo lòd sa a: -Al chache kote nou ka jwenn yon fanm ki konn rele mò pou l' travay pou mwen. Yo reponn li: -Gen yonn lavil Andò.
8 And Saul disguises himself and puts on other garments, and goes, he and two of the men with him, and they come to the woman by night, and he says, “Please divine to me by the familiar spirit, and cause him whom I say to you to come up to me.”
Sayil mete lòt kalite rad sou li, li maske. Li leve, li pati ak de moun pa l'. Yo rive kay fanm lan nan mitan lannwit. Sayil di fanm lan: -M' pral ba ou non yon mò pou ou rele pou mwen. Rele li pou mwen tanpri, pou m' konnen sa ki pral rive m'.
9 And the woman says to him, “Behold, you have known that which Saul has done, that he has cut off those having familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land; and why are you laying a snare for my soul—to put me to death?”
Men, fanm lan di l': -Ou konnen sa wa Sayil te fè a pa vre? Li te mete tout divinò ak tout moun k'ap pale ak mò deyò nan peyi a wi. Poukisa atò w'ap seye pran m' nan plan pou fè yo touye m'?
10 And Saul swears to her by YHWH, saying, “YHWH lives, punishment does not meet you for this thing.”
Sayil pran non Bondye fè sèman, li di: -Devan Seyè ki vivan an, mwen fè sèman yo p'ap fè ou anyen pou zafè sa a.
11 And the woman says, “Whom do I bring up to you?” And he says, “Bring up Samuel to me.”
Fanm lan di l': -Ki moun pou m' rele pou ou? Li reponn: -Rele Samyèl pou mwen.
12 And the woman sees Samuel, and cries with a loud voice, and the woman speaks to Saul, saying, “Why have you deceived me? For you [are] Saul!”
Lè madanm lan wè Samyèl, li pete rele, li di Sayil: -Poukisa ou twonpe m' konsa? Ou se wa Sayil!
13 And the king says to her, “Do not fear; for what have you seen?” And the woman says to Saul, “I have seen gods coming up out of the earth.”
Wa a di l': -Ou pa bezwen pè. Kisa ou wè? Fanm lan di Sayil: -Mwen wè yon lespri k'ap moute soti anba tè a.
14 And he says to her, “What [is] his form?” And she says, “An aged man is coming up, and he [is] covered with an upper robe”; and Saul knows that he [is] Samuel, and bows—face to her earth—and pays respect.
Wa a di l': -Kisa ou wè li sanble? Fanm lan reponn: -Se yon vye granmoun gason k'ap moute la a. Li vlope nan yon gwo dra. Lè sa a, Sayil vin konnen se te Samyèl. Li tonbe ajenou, li bese tèt li jouk atè.
15 And Samuel says to Saul, “Why have you troubled me, to bring me up?” And Saul says, “I have great distress, and the Philistines are fighting against me, God has turned aside from me, and has not answered me anymore, either by the hand of the prophets, or by dreams; and I call for you to let me know what I [should] do.”
Samyèl di Sayil: -Poukisa ou detounen m' konsa? Poukisa ou fè m' remoute la a en? Sayil di li: -Mwen nan gwo tèt chaje: Moun Filisti yo ap fè m' lagè. Epi Bondye vire do ban mwen. Li pa pale avè m' ankò, ni nan rèv, ni nan mesaj pwofèt yo. Se poutèt sa, mwen fè rele ou pou ou ka fè m' konnen sa pou m' fè.
16 And Samuel says, “And why do you ask me, and YHWH has turned aside from you, and is your enemy?
Samyèl di l': -Koulye a Seyè a vire do ba ou, li tounen lènmi ou, poukisa se mwen menm w'ap mande bagay konsa?
17 And YHWH does for Himself as He has spoken by my hand, and YHWH tears the kingdom out of your hand, and gives it to your neighbor—to David.
Seyè a annik fè sa li te di m' di ou la: li wete gouvènman an nan men ou, li bay David li pito.
18 Because you have not listened to the voice of YHWH, nor did the fierceness of His anger on Amalek—therefore YHWH has done this thing to you this day;
Ou pa t' koute sa Seyè a te di ou, ou pa t' detwi moun Amalèk yo nèt ansanm ak tou sa yo te genyen. Se poutèt sa Seyè a fè ou sa li fè ou jòdi a.
19 indeed, YHWH also gives Israel into the hand of the Philistines with you, and tomorrow you and your sons [are] with me; YHWH also gives the camp of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.”
Li pral lage ou ansanm ak tout pèp Izrayèl la nan men moun Filisti yo. Denmen lè konsa, ni ou menm ni pitit gason ou yo ap menm kote avè m'. Seyè a pral lage lame pèp Izrayèl la nan men moun Filisti yo.
20 And Saul hurries and falls—the fullness of his stature—to the earth, and fears greatly because of the words of Samuel; also power was not in him, for he had not eaten bread all the day, and all the night.
Tande Sayil tande sa, li tonbe tou long atè, li te pè akòz pawòl Samyèl te di l' la a. Li te fèb anpil tou, paske li pa t' manje anyen depi maten.
21 And the woman comes to Saul, and sees that he has been greatly troubled, and says to him, “Behold, your maidservant has listened to your voice, and I put my soul in my hand, and I obey your words which you have spoken to me;
Fanm lan al jwenn Sayil atè a, li wè jan Sayil t'ap tranble tèlman li te pè. Li di l' konsa: -Tanpri, mèt, tande sa m'ap di ou: Mwen te mete lavi m' an danje pou m' te fè sa ou te mande m' fè a.
22 and now, please listen, you also, to the voice of your maidservant, and I set a morsel of bread before you; and eat, and there is power in you when you go in the way.”
Koulye a, tanpri, tande sa m'ap di ou. Ou pral fè sa m'a pral di ou la a: Kite m' al pare yon ti manje pou ou. W'a manje, w'a pran fòs ankò pou ou ka al fè wout ou.
23 And he refuses and says, “I do not eat”; and his servants urge him on, and also the woman, and he listens to their voice, and rises from the earth, and sits on the bed.
Sayil refize, li di li p'ap manje anyen. Men mesye ki te avè l' yo ansanm ak fanm lan pale avè l', yo fè l' tande rezon. Bout pou bout, li dakò, li leve sot atè a, li chita sou kabann lan.
24 And the woman has a calf of the stall in the house, and she hurries and slaughters it, and takes flour, and kneads, and bakes it [into] unleavened things,
Fanm lan te gen yon ti bèf li t'ap angrese lakay li. Li prese touye l'. Apre sa, li pran farin, li fè pat avè l', li kwit kèk ti pen san ledven.
25 and brings [them] near before Saul, and before his servants, and they eat, and rise, and go on during that night.
Li pote tout bagay sa yo devan Sayil ak mesye l' yo. Yo manje. Lèfini, lannwit lan menm yo leve, yo pati.
