1 Samuel 19
1 Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Saul's son Jonathan liked David very much.
Sayil pale ak Jonatan ansanm ak chèf k'ap sèvi avè l' yo, li di yo li fè lide touye David. Men Jonatan, pitit gason Sayil la, te renmen David anpil.
2 So Jonathan told David, saying, "Saul seeks to kill you. Please take care of yourself in the morning, and keep hidden in a secret place.
Li fè David konnen sa. Li di l': -Sayil, papa m', ap chache touye ou. Denmen maten, rete sou prigad ou. Al kache kò ou yon kote. Pa soti menm.
3 I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will talk with my father about you; and if I see anything, I will tell you."
Mwen menm, m'ap soti, mwen pral jwenn papa m' nan jaden kote ou kache a, m'a pale sou ou ak li. Jan l' reponn mwen, m'a fè ou konnen.
4 Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, "Do not let the king sin against his servant, against David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you;
Jonatan t'ap bay bèl pawòl pou David devan papa l', li t'ap di konsa: -Monwa, piga ou fè David, sèvitè ou la, anyen. Li menm, li pa janm fè ou anyen. Tou sa li fè toujou sèvi ou.
5 for he put his life in his hand, and struck the Philistine, and the LORD worked a great victory for all Israel. You saw it, and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?"
Li riske lavi li lè l' al touye sòlda Filisti a. Se konsa Seyè a te delivre tout pèp la, se te bèl bagay. Ou te wè sa, ou te kontan. Poukisa koulye a ou ta renmen wè malè rive yon moun inonsan, ou ta vle touye David san l' pa fè anyen?
6 Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swore, "As the LORD lives, he shall not be put to death."
Sayil koute Jonatan, li fè sèman, li di l': -Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a ki vivan, yo p'ap touye David.
7 Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as before.
Jonatan rele David, li rapòte l' tout pawòl sa yo. Apre sa, li mennen David bay Sayil. Epi David tanmen sèvi wa a ankò jan li te konn fè anvan an.
8 There was war again. David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and killed them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him.
Lagè pete ankò ak moun Filisti yo. David leve al atake yo, li goumen ak yo, li bat yo byen bat, li fè yo kouri met deyò devan li.
9 A harmful spirit from the LORD was on Saul, as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand.
Yon jou Seyè a voye yon move lespri ki desann sou Sayil. Sayil te chita lakay li, li te kenbe frenn li nan men l'. David menm t'ap jwe mizik.
10 Saul sought to pin David even to the wall with the spear; but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he stuck the spear into the wall. David fled, and escaped that night.
Sayil t'ap chache kloure David nan miray la ak frenn li, men David eskive kò l', epi frenn lan al antre nan miray la. David kouri chape kò l'. Menm jou sa a, nan mitan lannwit,
11 Saul sent messengers to David's house, to watch him, and to kill him in the morning. Mikal, David's wife, told him, saying, "If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed."
Sayil voye kèk espyon al veye kay David la pou yo te touye l' nan maten. Men, Mikal, madan David, avèti mari l'. Li di l': -Si ou pa chape poul ou lannwit lan, denmen maten ou mouri.
12 So Mikal let David down through the window. He went, fled, and escaped.
Li fè David soti nan yon fennèt. David kouri, li chape kò l'.
13 Mikal took the teraphim, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats' hair at its head, and covered it with the clothes.
Lè sa a, Mikal pran yon zidòl wogatwa, li mete l' kouche sou kabann lan, li pran yon zòrye fèt ak plim kabrit, li mete l' nan plas tèt la, epi li kouvri tout ak yon dra.
14 When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, "He is sick."
Lè moun Sayil yo vin pou pran David, Mikal di yo David kouche malad.
15 Then he sent the messengers to see David, saying, "Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him."
Men, Sayil voye mesye yo tounen pou y' al wè David ak je yo. Li di yo: -Mennen l' isit ban mwen ak tout kabann li an pou m' fè touye l'.
16 When the messengers came in, look, the teraphim was in the bed, with the pillow of goats' hair at its head.
Lè mesye yo antre anndan kay la, yo jwenn estati zidòl wogatwa a sou kabann lan ak zòrye plim kabrit la kote pou tèt la te ye a.
17 Saul said to Mikal, "Why have you deceived me thus, and let my enemy go, so that he is escaped?" Mikal answered Saul, "He said, 'Let me go. Why should I kill you?'"
Sayil di Mikal konsa: -Poukisa ou woule m' konsa? Ou kite lènmi mwen an chape. Mikal reponn li: -Li te di m' si m' pa kite l' chape, l'ap touye m'!
18 Now David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and lived in the dwellings.
David menm kouri chape kò l', l' al jwenn Samyèl lavil Rama. Li rakonte l' tou sa Sayil te fè l'. Apre sa, li menm ansanm ak Samyèl y' ale rete lavil Najòt.
19 And it was told to Saul, saying, "Look, David is in the dwellings at Ramah."
Y' al di Sayil men David te lavil Najòt nan zòn Rama a.
20 And Saul sent messengers to capture David. But when they saw a company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they prophesied.
Sayil voye kèk moun al arete l'. Lè yo rive, yo wè yon gwoup pwofèt ki te gen lespri Bondye a nan tèt yo, avèk Samyèl kanpe devan yo tankou chèf yo. Lamenm lespri Bondye a desann nan tèt moun Sayil te voye yo, epi yo pran fè menm bagay ak pwofèt yo.
21 When it was told to Saul, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
Yo vin di Sayil sa. Lè sa a, li voye lòt moun ankò. Yo menm tou, yo pran fè menm bagay ak pwofèt yo tou. Yon twazyèm fwa, Sayil voye lòt moun ankò. Yo menm tou, yo pran fè menm bagay ak pwofèt yo.
22 And Saul became very angry, and he himself also went to Ramah, and came to the cistern of the threshing floor that is on the bare hill. And he asked, "Where are Samuel and David?" And one said, "Look, they are in the dwellings at Ramah."
Lè sa a, Sayil leve, l' ale li menm lavil Rama. Lè li rive bò gwo sitèn dlo ki lavil Sekou a, li mande kote Samyèl ak David ye. Yo di l' yo lavil Najòt nan zòn Rama a.
23 So he went to the dwellings at Ramah. Then the Spirit of God came on him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to the dwellings in Ramah.
Li pati dèyè yo. Antan l'ap mache konsa, lespri Bondye a desann nan tèt li tou. Li t'ap fè menm bagay ak pwofèt yo sou tout wout la, jouk li rive devan lavil Najòt nan zòn Rama a.
24 And he stripped off his clothes and prophesied before them, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Thus it is said, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"
Li wete tout rad sou li, li fè tankou pwofèt yo devan Samyèl. Apre sa, li tonbe atè a toutouni. Li rete tout rès jounen an ak tout lannwit lan atè a konsa. Se depi lè sa a, yo di: Menm Sayil gen lè pwofèt tou?
