< 2 Samuel 24 >
1 Now again the anger of Jehovah burned against Israel, and he moved David against them, saying, "Go, number Israel and Judah."
Alò, kòlè SENYÈ a te brile ankò kont Israël e li te pwovoke David kont yo pou di: “Ale konte moun Israël avèk Juda yo.”
2 So the king said to Joab and the captains of the army, who were with him, "Now go back and forth through all Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba and number the people, that I may know the sum of the people."
Wa a te di a Joab, chèf lame ki te avèk li a: “Ale, koulye a, atravè tout tribi Israël yo, soti nan Dan jis rive Beer-Schéba e anrejistre pèp la pou m kab konnen nonb de moun yo.”
3 But Joab said to the king, "Now may Jehovah your God add to the people, however many they may be, one hundred times; and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king delight in this thing?"
Men Joab te di a wa a: “Alò, ke SENYÈ a ta kapab ajoute san fwa anplis kantite moun ke yo ye a, pandan zye a mèt mwen an, wa a, kab toujou wè. Men poukisa mèt mwen an, wa a, twouve plezi nan bagay sila a?”
4 However, the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the army. Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king, to number the children of Israel.
Men pawòl a wa a te pran plas kont Joab, e kont chèf lame yo. Pou sa, Joab avèk chèf lame yo te sòti nan prezans wa a pou anrejistre pèp Israël la.
5 They crossed over the Jordan and began from Aroer, and from the city that is in the middle of the valley of Gad; then on to Jazer.
Yo te travèse Jourdain an pou te fè kan Aroër, sou bò dwat vil la ki nan mitan vale Gad la, ak vè Jaezer.
6 Then they came to Gilead, and to the region of the Hethites, to Kedesh; and they came to Dan. Then they skirted Sidon,
Epi yo te vini Galaad, nan peyi Thachthim-Hodschi, yo te rive Danjaan ak kote Sidon an.
7 and came to the stronghold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites; and they went out to the south of Judah, at Beersheba.
Epi yo te rive nan fòterès Tyr la, nan tout vil a Evyen yo ak Kananeyen yo; epi yo te sòti nan sid Juda, nan Beer-Schéba.
8 So when they had gone back and forth through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
Konsa, lè yo te fin pase nan tout peyi a, yo te vini Jérusalem nan fen nèf mwa e ven jou.
9 Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people to the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
Epi Joab te bay nimewo anrejistreman pèp la bay wa a. Te gen an Israël, ui-san-mil mesye vanyan ki te kapab rale nepe e mesye nan Juda yo te senk-san-mil.
10 David's heart struck him after that he had numbered the people. David said to Jehovah, "I have sinned greatly in that which I have done. But now, Jehovah, put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly."
Koulye a, kè David te vin twouble lè li te fin konte pèp la. Konsa, David te di a SENYÈ a: “Mwen te fè gwo peche nan sa mwen te fè a. Men koulye a, O SENYÈ, souple retire inikite a sèvitè Ou a, paske mwen te aji nan foli.”
11 When David rose up in the morning, the word of Jehovah came to Gad, David's seer, saying,
Lè David te leve nan maten, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a pwofèt Gad la, vwayan David la, e li te di:
12 "Go and speak to David, 'Thus says Jehovah, "I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you."'
“Ale pale avèk David: ‘Konsa SENYÈ a di: “Mwen ap ofri ou twa bagay; chwazi pou ou menm youn nan yo, pou m fè ou.”’”
13 So Gad came to David, and told him, and said to him, "Shall three years of famine come to you in your land? Or will you flee three months before your foes while they pursue you? Or shall there be three days' pestilence in your land? Now answer, and consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me."
Konsa, Gad te rive kote David e li te di li: “Èske sèt ane gwo grangou va rive ou nan peyi ou? Oswa èske ou va sove ale pandan twa mwa devan lènmi ou yo pandan y ap kouri dèyè ou? Oswa èske va gen twa jou gwo epidemi nan peyi ou? Alò konsidere e wè ki repons mwen va pote bay Sila ki te voye mwen an.”
14 David said to Gad, "All of them are difficult for me. Only let me fall now into the hand of Jehovah; for his mercies are great. Let me not fall into the hand of man."
Epi David te di a Gad: “Mwen nan gwo pwoblèm. Annou tonbe nan men a SENYÈ a, paske mizerikòd Li gran; men pa kite mwen tonbe nan men a lòm.”
15 So Jehovah sent a pestilence on Israel from the morning even to the appointed time; and the destruction began among the people. And there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te voye yon epidemi sou Israël jis rive nan maten nan lè chwazi a e swasann-di-mil moun nan pèp la soti Dan jis rive Beer-Schéba te mouri.
16 When the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, Jehovah relented of the disaster, and said to the angel who destroyed the people, "It is enough. Now stay your hand." The angel of Jehovah was standing near the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite. And David lifted up his eyes and saw the angel of Jehovah standing between earth and the sky, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell down on their faces.
Lè zanj lan te lonje men li vè Jérusalem pou detwi li, SENYÈ a te repanti de gwo malè a. Li te di a zanj ki te detwi pèp la: “Sa ase! Koulye a, lache men ou!” Epi zanj SENYÈ a te akote glasi a Aravna a, Jebizyen an.
17 Then David spoke to Jehovah when he saw the angel who struck the people, and said, "Look, I have sinned, and I, the shepherd, have done great evil. But these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand be against me, and against my father's house."
Konsa, David te pale a SENYÈ a lè li te wè zanj ki t ap frape pèp la. Li te di: “Gade byen, se mwen ki te peche a, se mwen ki te fè mal la. Men mouton sila yo, kisa yo te fè? Souple, kite men Ou vin kont mwen, ak kont lakay papa m.”
18 And Gad went to David that day and said, "Go up, build an altar to Jehovah on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite."
Konsa, Gad te rive kote David nan jou sa menm, e li te di li: “Ale monte, bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a sou glasi Aravna a, Jebizyen an.”
19 So David went up and did what Gad had said, as Jehovah commanded.
David te monte pa pawòl a Gad la, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande a.
20 And Araunah looked out and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him, so Araunah went out and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
Aravna te gade anba e te wè wa a avèk sèvitè li yo ki t ap travèse bò kote li. Epi Aravna te parèt deyò e li te bese figi li jiska atè devan wa a.
21 And Araunah said, "Why has my lord the king come to his servant?" And David said, "To buy this threshing floor from you to build an altar to Jehovah, so that the plague may be held back from the people."
Alò, Aravna te di: “Poukisa mèt mwen, wa a, te vin kote sèvitè li a?” David te reponn: “Pou achte glasi a nan men ou, pou m kab bati yon lotèl bay SENYÈ a, pou epidemi an kab vin sispann sou pèp la.”
22 But Araunah said to David, "Let my lord the king take and offer up what seems good to him. Look, the oxen for the burnt offering, and the threshing sledges and the yokes of the oxen for the wood.
Aravna te di a David: “Kite mèt mwen an, wa a, pran sa li wè ki bon nan zye li, e ofri li. Gade, men bèf pou ofrann brile a, bwa kabwèt yo avèk jouk bèf yo pou bwa dife a.
23 All these Araunah gives to the king." And Araunah said to the king, "May Jehovah your God accept you."
Tout bagay, O wa, Aravna ap bay wa a.” Epi Aravna te di a wa a: “Ke SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, kapab kontan avèk ou.”
24 But the king said to Araunah, "No, but I will buy it from you for a price. I will not offer burnt offerings to Jehovah my God which cost me nothing." So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
Sepandan, wa a te di a Aravna: “Non, men mwen va, anverite, achte li pou yon pri. Paske mwen p ap ofri ofrann brile bay SENYÈ a, Bondye mwen an ki pa koute m anyen.” Konsa, David te achte glasi a avèk bèf yo pou senkant sik ajan.
25 Then David built an altar to Jehovah there and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So Jehovah responded to the plea for the land, and the plague was withdrawn from Israel.
David te bati la yon lotèl bay SENYÈ a e li te ofri ofrann brile yo avèk ofrann lapè yo. Konsa, SENYÈ a te kontan akoz lapriyè pou peyi a, e epidemi an te vin sispann an Israël.
