1 Samuel 7

1 And the men of Kiriath-jearim came, and fetched up the ark of the LORD, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD.

Epi mesye nan Kirjath-Jearim yo te vin pran lach SENYÈ a e te pote li antre lakay Abinadab sou ti mòn nan, epi yo te konsakre Éléazar, fis li a, pou okipe lach SENYÈ a.

2 And it came to pass, from the day that the ark abode in Kiriath-jearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years: and all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.

Soti nan jou ke lach la te rete Kirjath-Jearim nan, tan ekoule a te byen long—paske li te pran ventan avan tout lakay Israël te fè lamantasyon devan SENYÈ a.

3 And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do return unto the LORD with all your heart, then put away the strange gods and the Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto the LORD, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.

Konsa Samuel te pale a tout lakay Israël la, e te di: “Si nou retounen vè SENYÈ a avèk tout kè nou, si nou retire dye etranje yo avèk Asheroth soti nan mitan nou, si nou dirije kè nou vè SENYÈ a, e sèvi Li sèl, Li va delivre nou soti nan men a Filisten yo.”

4 Then the children of Israel did put away the Baalim and the Ashtaroth, and served the LORD only.

Konsa, fis Israël yo te retire Baal yo ak Astarté yo pou te sèvi sèl SENYÈ a.

5 And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray for you unto the LORD.

Alò, Samuel te di: “Rasanble tout Israël nan Mitspa e mwen va priye a SENYÈ a pou nou.”

6 And they gathered together to Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before the LORD, and fasted on that day, and said there, We have sinned against the LORD. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpah.

Yo te rasanble nan Mitspa; yo te rale dlo pou te vide devan SENYÈ a, e yo te fè jèn nan jou sila a. Yo te di nan plas sa a: “Nou te peche kont SENYÈ a.” Konsa, Samuel te jije fis Israël yo nan Mitspa.

7 And when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together to Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.

Alò, lè Filisten yo te tande ke fis Israël yo te rasanble nan Mitspa, e prens a Filisten yo te vin monte kont Israël. Lè fis Israël yo te tande sa, yo te krent Filisten yo.

8 And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto the LORD our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.

Pou sa a, fis Israël yo te di a Samuel: “Pa sispann kriye a SENYÈ Bondye nou an pou nou, pou Li kapab sove nou soti nan men a Filisten yo.”

9 And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a whole burnt offering unto the LORD: and Samuel cried unto the LORD for Israel; and the LORD answered him.

Samuel te pran yon ti mouton ki potko sevre e li te ofri tout li kòm yon ofrann brile bay SENYÈ a. Samuel te kriye a SENYÈ a pou Israël e SENYÈ a te reponn li.

10 And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel: but the LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them; and they were smitten down before Israel.

Pandan Samuel t ap ofri ofrann brile a, Filisten yo te rapwoche pou fè batay kont Israël. Men SENYÈ a te gwonde nan jou sa a kont Filisten yo. Li te fè yon malkonprann antre yo, e Li te boulvèse yo devan Israël.

11 And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and smote them, until they came under Beth-car.

Mesye Israël yo te sòti nan Mitspa pou te kouri dèyè Filisten yo e yo te frape yo ba jis rive piba Beth-Car.

12 Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called the name of it Eben-ezer, saying, Hitherto hath the LORD helped us.

Alò, Samuel te pran yon gwo wòch, e li te poze li antre Mitspa ak Schen e li te ba li non a Ében-Ézer. Li te di: “Jis rive la, SENYÈ a te ede nou.”

13 So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more within the border of Israel: and the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.

Konsa, Filisten yo te vin soumèt, e yo pa t vin ankò anndan fwontyè Israël la. Konsa, men SENYÈ a te kont Filisten yo pandan tout jou a Samuel yo.

14 And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even unto Gath; and the border thereof did Israel deliver out of the hand of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.

Vil ke Filisten yo te sezi soti an Israël yo te restore a Israël, soti Ékron jis rive Gath. Epi Israël te rachte teritwa yo nan men a Filisten yo. Konsa, te gen lapè antre Israël ak Amoreyen yo.

15 And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.

Alò, Samuel te jije Israël pandan tout jou lavi li yo.

16 And he went from year to year in circuit to Beth-el, and Gilgal, and Mizpah; and he judged Israel in all those places.

Li te konn ale chak ane fè yon tou Béthel avèk Guilgal, ak Mitspa, e li te jije Israël tout kote sa yo.

17 And his return was to Ramah, for there was his house; and there he judged Israel: and he built there an altar unto the LORD.

Alò vwayaj retou li sete nan Rama; paske se la lakay li te ye. Se la li te jije Israël; epi li te bati la yon lotèl bay SENYÈ a.
