2 Samuel 1
1 And it comes to pass after the death of Saul, that David has returned from striking the Amalekite, and David dwells in Ziklag [for] two days,
Alò, li te vin rive ke lè Saül te fin mouri, e David te retounen soti nan masak a Amalekit yo, ke David te rete pandan de jou nan Tsiklag.
2 and it comes to pass, on the third day, that behold, a man has come in out of the camp from Saul, and his garments [are] torn, and earth [is] on his head; and it comes to pass in his coming to David, that he falls to the earth and pays respect.
Nan twazyèm jou a, vwala, yon mesye te sòti nan kan an kote Saül la. Rad li te chire epi te gen pousyè sou tèt li. Lè li te parèt a David, li te tonbe atè; li te kouche plat nèt pou fè respè.
3 And David says to him, “Where do you come from?” And he says to him, “I have escaped out of the camp of Israel.”
Alò, David te di li: “Depi ki kote ou sòti?” Li te reponn: “Mwen te chape soti nan kan Israël la.”
4 And David says to him, “What has been the matter? Please declare [it] to me.” And he says, “That the people have fled from the battle, and also a multitude of the people have fallen, and they die; and also Saul and his son Jonathan have died.”
David te di li: “Se kijan bagay yo te sòti? Souple, fè m konnen.” Konsa, li te di: “Moun yo gen tan sove ale kite batay la, e anplis, anpil nan moun yo tonbe mouri. Epi Saül avèk Jonathan, fis li a te mouri tou.”
5 And David says to the youth who is declaring [it] to him, “How have you known that Saul and his son Jonathan [are] dead?”
Konsa, David te di a jennonm nan ki te pale li a: “Kijan ou fè konnen ke Saül avèk fis li, Jonathan mouri?”
6 And the youth who is declaring [it] to him says, “I happened to meet in Mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul is leaning on his spear; and behold, the chariots and those possessing horses have followed him;
Jennonm ki te pale li a te di: “Pa aza mwen te sou Mòn Guilboa, e gade byen, Saül t ap apiye sou frenn li an. Epi gade, cha yo avèk chevalye yo t ap kouri rèd sou li.
7 and he turns behind him, and sees me, and calls to me, and I say, Here I [am].
Lè l te gade dèyè li, li te wè m e te rele mwen. Epi mwen te di: ‘Men mwen’.
8 And he says to me, Who [are] you? And I say to him, I [am] an Amalekite.
Li te di mwen: ‘Se ki moun ou ye?’ Epi mwen te reponn li: ‘Mwen se yon Amalekit’.
9 And he says to me, Please stand over me and put me to death, for the arrow has seized me, for all my soul [is] still in me.
Alò li te di mwen: ‘Souple, kanpe akote mwen pou touye mwen; paske gwo doulè gen tan sezi mwen akoz lavi m toujou rete nan mwen.’
10 And I stand over him, and put him to death, for I knew that he does not live after his falling, and I take the crown which [is] on his head, and the bracelet which [is] on his arm, and bring them to my lord here.”
Konsa, mwen te kanpe akote li pou te touye li; paske mwen te konnen ke li pa t kab viv lè l te fin tonbe a. Epi mwen te pran kouwòn ki te sou tèt li a, ak braslè ki te nan bra li a, e mwen te mennen yo isit la kote mèt mwen.”
11 And David takes hold on his garments, and tears them, and also all the men who [are] with him,
Alò, David te sezi rad li, te chire yo, menm jan tout mesye ki te avè l yo te fè.
12 and they mourn, and weep, and fast until the evening, for Saul, and for his son Jonathan, and for the people of YHWH, and for the house of Israel, because they have fallen by the sword.
Yo te fè dèy e te kriye fè jèn pou Saül avèk fis li a, Jonathan, pou pèp SENYÈ a e pou lakay Israël jis rive nan aswè, akoz yo te tonbe pa nepe.
13 And David says to the youth who is declaring [it] to him, “Where [are] you from?” And he says, “I [am] the son of a sojourner, an Amalekite.”
David te di a jennonm ki te pale li a: “Se kibò ou sòti?” Epi li te reponn: “Mwen se fis a yon etranje, yon Amalekit.”
14 And David says to him, “How were you not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the anointed of YHWH?”
Alò, David te di li: “Kijan sa ye ke ou pa t pè lonje men ou pou detwi onksyone a SENYÈ a?”
15 And David calls to one of the youths and says, “Draw near—fall on him”; and he strikes him, and he dies;
Epi David te rele youn nan jennonm yo e te di: “Ale, koupe l fè l desann.” Konsa, li te frape li e li te mouri.
16 and David says to him, “Your blood [is] on your own head, for your mouth has testified against you, saying, I put to death the anointed of YHWH.”
David te di li: “San ou sou pwòp tèt pa w; paske bouch ou te fè temwayaj kont ou menm e te di: ‘Mwen te touye onksyone a SENYÈ a.’”
17 And David laments with this lamentation over Saul, and over his son Jonathan;
Alò, David te chante lamantasyon sila sou Saül avèk fis li a, Jonathan.
18 and he says to teach the sons of Judah “The Bow”; behold, it is written on the Scroll of the Upright:
Epi li te di yo pou montre fis a Juda yo chan ki rele Banza a. Gade byen, li ekri nan liv a Jaschar a.
19 “The beauty of Israel [Is] wounded on your high places; How the mighty have fallen!
“Bèlte ou, O Israël, detwi sou wo plas ou yo! O kijan glwa ou yo te tonbe sou wo plas yo!
20 Do not declare [it] in Gath, Do not proclaim the tidings in the streets of Ashkelon, Lest they rejoice—The daughters of the Philistines, Lest they exult—The daughters of the uncircumcised!
Pa pale sa nan Gath, ni pwoklame sa nan lari Askalon yo, sof fi Filisten yo ta rejwi; fi a ensikonsi yo ta egzalte,
21 Mountains of Gilboa! No dew nor rain be on you, And fields of raised-offerings! For there has become loathsome The shield of the mighty, The shield of Saul—without the anointed with oil.
O mòn a Guilboa yo, pa kite lawouze ni lapli vin tonbe sou nou, ni sou chanm ofrann yo; paske pwisan yo te tonbe, paske la, boukliye pwisan an te vin sal. Boukliye Saül te pedi lwil onksyon an.
22 From the blood of the wounded, From the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan Has not turned backward; And the sword of Saul does not return empty.
Soti nan san a sila ki te mouri yo, soti nan grès a pwisan yo, banza a Jonathan an pa t fè bak, ni nepe a Saül la pa t retounen vid.
23 Saul and Jonathan! They are loved and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they have not been parted. They have been lighter than eagles, They have been mightier than lions!
Saül avèk Jonathan, byen emab e byeneme pandan vi pa yo, epi nan mò yo, yo pa t vin separe. Yo te pi rapid ke èg yo. Yo te pi pwisan pase lyon yo.
24 Daughters of Israel! Weep for Saul, Who is clothing you [in] scarlet with delights. Who is lifting up ornaments of gold on your clothing.
O fi Israël yo, kriye pou Saül, ki te fè nou abiye byen bèl ak twal wouj, ki te mete òneman an lò sou vètman nou.
25 How the mighty have fallen In the midst of the battle! Jonathan [was] wounded on your high places!
Kijan pwisan yo vin tonbe nan mitan batay la! Jonathan vin touye sou wo plas nou yo.
26 I am in distress for you, my brother Jonathan, You were very pleasant to me; Your love was wonderful to me, Above the love of women!
Mwen twouble pou ou, frè m Jonathan. Ou te konn fè m byen kontan. Lanmou ou te yon bèl bagay. Lanmou ou te pi presye ke lanmou a yon fanm.
27 How the mighty have fallen, Indeed, the weapons of war perish!”
Kijan pwisan yo te tonbe e zam lagè yo te vin peri!”
