1 Chronicles 21
1 And an adversary up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.
Alò, Satan te kanpe kont Israël e te bourade David pou kontwole moun Israël yo.
2 And David said to Joab and to the leaders of the people, "Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring me word, that I may know the sum of them."
Pou sa, David te di a Joab, e a chèf a pèp yo: “Ale konte moun Israël yo soti Beer-Schéba jis rive Dan, e pote ban m chif yo pou m kab konnen fòs kantite yo.”
3 Joab said, "May YHWH make his people a hundred times as many as they are. But, my lord the king, aren't they all my lord's servants? Why does my lord require this thing? Why will he be a cause of guilt to Israel?"
Joab te di: “Ke SENYÈ a kapab ogmante sou pèp li a san fwa ke sa! Men mèt mwen, wa a, èske yo tout se pa sèvitè mèt mwen an? Poukisa mèt mwen an ap chache afè sa a? Poukisa sa ta dwe koz pou Israël ta vin koupab?”
4 Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Therefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
Malgre sa, pawòl wa a te vin genyen kont pawòl Joab yo. Konsa, Joab te sòti ale nan tout Israël pou te rive Jérusalem.
5 Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people to David. All those of Israel were one million one hundred thousand men who drew sword: and in Judah were four hundred seventy thousand men who drew sword.
Joab te bay nimewo a tout moun a David yo. Epi tout Israël, mesye ki te rale nepe yo, se te yon milyon-san-mil òm e Juda te kat-san-swasann-dis òm ki te rale nepe yo.
6 But he did not count Levi and Benjamin among them; for the king's word was abominable to Joab.
Men li pa t kontwole Lévi avèk Benjamin pami yo, paske kòmand wa a te twouve byen rayisab pou Joab.
7 God was displeased with this thing; therefore he struck Israel.
“Bondye pa t kontan avèk bagay sa a e pou sa, li te frape Israël.
8 David said to God, "I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing. But now, put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly."
David te di a Bondye: Mwen te peche anpil, pwiske mwen te fè bagay sa a. Men souple, koulye a, retire inikite a sèvitè Ou a, paske mwen te fè yon bagay byen sòt.”
9 YHWH spoke to Gad, David's seer, saying,
SENYÈ a te pale ak Gad, konseye David la, epi te di l:
10 "Go and speak to David, saying, 'Thus says YHWH, "I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you."'"
“Ale pale ak David. Di l: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, “M ap ofri ou twa bagay. Chwazi pou kont ou youn nan yo, ke mwen va fè pou ou.”’”
11 So Gad came to David, and said to him, "Thus says YHWH, 'Take your choice:
Konsa, Gad te vin kote David. Li te di l: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ‘Pran pou ou menm
12 either three years of famine; or three months of fleeing from before your foes, while the sword of your enemies overtakes you; or else three days the sword of YHWH, even pestilence in the land, and the angel of YHWH destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.'"
oswa, twazan gwo grangou, oswa twa mwa ke ou va chase kraze nèt pa lènmi ou, pandan nepe pa yo ap pran ou nèt, oswa gwo epidemi nan peyi a avèk zanj SENYÈ a k ap detwi toupatou nan tout teritwa Israël la.’ Pou sa, reflechi sou repons ke mwen va retounen bay a Sila ki te voye mwen an.”
13 David said to Gad, "I am in distress. Let me fall, I pray, into the hand of YHWH; for his mercies are very great. Let me not fall into the hand of man."
David te di a Gad: “Mwen byen twouble. Souple, kite mwen tonbe nan men SENYÈ a, paske mizerikòd Li byen gran. Men pa kite mwen tonbe nan men a lòm.”
14 So YHWH sent a pestilence on Israel; and seventy thousand men of Israel fell.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te voye epidemi sou Israël. Swasann-di-mil nan mesye Israël yo te tonbe.
15 God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As he was about to destroy, YHWH saw, and he relented of the disaster, and said to the destroying angel, "It is enough; now stay your hand." The angel of YHWH was standing by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Epi Bondye te voye yon zanj Jérusalem pou detwi vil la, men lè l te prè pou detwi, SENYÈ a te wè, e te lache de gwo dega a. Li te di a zanj ki t ap detwi a: “Sa kont. Alò, lache men ou.” Zanj SENYÈ a t ap kanpe akote glasi vannen ki pou Ornan an, Jebizyen an.
16 David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of YHWH 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 on their faces.
David te leve zye li, e te wè zanj SENYÈ a ki te kanpe antre syèl la avèk tè a, avèk nepe li rale nan men l, lonje sou Jérusalem. Konsa, David avèk ansyen yo te kouvri yo avèk twal sak e te tonbe sou figi yo.
17 David said to God, "Isn't it I who commanded the people to be numbered? It is even I who have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand, YHWH my God, be against me, and against my father's house; but not against your people, that they should be plagued."
David te di a Bondye: “Èske se pa mwen menm ki te kòmande kontwòl a tout pèp la? Anverite, se te mwen ki te peche e ki te fè anpil mal. Men mouton sila yo, se kisa yo menm te fè? O SENYÈ, Bondye mwen an, souple, kite men Ou vin kont mwen avèk lakay zansèt mwen yo, men pa kont pèp Ou a, pou yo ta vin toumante.”
18 Then the angel of YHWH commanded Gad to tell David that David should go up, and raise an altar to YHWH in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Alò, zanj SENYÈ a te kòmande Gad pou pale David, pou David ta dwe monte pou bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a sou glasi vannen ki te pou Ornan an, Jebizyen an.
19 David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the name of YHWH.
Konsa, David te monte selon pawòl ke Gad te pale nan non SENYÈ a.
20 Ornan turned back, and saw the king, and his four sons who were with him hiding themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
Alò, Ornan te vire fè bak, e li te wè zanj lan. Kat fis pa li yo ki te avè l yo te kache tèt yo. Alò, Ornan t ap bat ble.
21 As David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
Lè David te vin kote Ornan, Ornan te gade. Li te wè David e te sòti nan glasi vannen an pou te pwostène li menm devan David avèk figi li atè.
22 Then David said to Ornan, "Give me the place of this threshing floor, that I may build thereon an altar to YHWH. You shall sell it to me for the full price, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people."
Alò, David te di a Ornan: “Ban mwen anplasman sila a avèk glasi vannen an, pou m kab bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a. Pou valè tout pri li, ou va ban mwen li, pou touman sila a kab vin frennen pami pèp la.”
23 Ornan said to David, "Take it for yourself, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes. Look, I give the oxen for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal offering. I give it all."
Ornan te di a David: “Pran li pou kont ou, epi kite mèt mwen an, wa a, fè sa ki bon nan zye l. Gade, mwen bay ou bèf yo pou ofrann brile a ak mas pilon, kon bwa ak ble kon ofrann sereyal la. M ap ba ou tout.”
24 King David said to Ornan, "No; but I will most certainly buy it for the full price. For I will not take that which is yours for YHWH, nor offer a burnt offering without cost."
Men Wa David te di a Ornan: “Non, men anverite, mwen va achte li pou tout pri li. Paske mwen p ap pran sa ki pou ou pou SENYÈ a, ni ofri ofrann brile ki pa t koute mwen anyen.”
25 So David gave to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
Konsa David te bay Ornan sis-san sik an lò selon pwa li pou anplasman an.
26 David built an altar to YHWH there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called on YHWH; and he answered him from heaven by fire on the altar of burnt offering, and it consumed the burnt offering.
Alò, David te bati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a la, e te ofri ofrann brile yo avèk ofrann lapè yo. Li te rele SENYÈ a, e Li te reponn li avèk dife soti nan syèl la sou lotèl ofrann brile a.
27 YHWH commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into its sheath.
SENYÈ a te kòmande zanj lan e li te remèt nepe li nan fouwo.
28 At that time, when David saw that YHWH had answered him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
Nan lè sa, lè David te wè ke SENYÈ a te reponn li sou glasi vannen Ornan an, Jebizyen an. Li te ofri yon sakrifis la.
29 For the tabernacle of YHWH, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
Paske tabènak SENYÈ a, ke Moïse te fè nan dezè a ak lotèl ofrann brile a te nan wo plas Gabaon an nan lè sa a.
30 But David couldn't go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of YHWH.
Men David pa t kab ale devan li nan Gabaon pou fè demand Bondye, paske nepe zanj SENYÈ a te bay li gwo lakrent.
