< 1 Samuel 22 >
1 David therefore departed thence, and escaped, into the cave of Adullam, —and, when his brethren and all the household of his father heard it, they went down unto him, thither.
Konsa, David te kite la pou te chape rive nan kav Adullam nan. Epi lè frè li yo avèk tout lakay papa li te tande koze sa a, yo te desann bò kote li.
2 And there gathered themselves unto him—every one that was in distress, and every one that had a creditor, and every one embittered in soul, and he came to be over them as a prince, —and there were with him, about four hundred men.
Tout sila ki te nan pwoblèm yo, tout moun ki te nan gwo dèt, tout moun ki pa t kontan te vin rasanble kote li, e li te devni chèf sou yo. Alò te gen anviwon kat-san òm avèk li.
3 And David departed thence, to Mizpah of Moab, —and said unto the king of Moab, I pray thee, let my father and my mother dwell with you, until that I know what God will do for me.
Epi David te kite la pou ale Mitspé nan Moab. Li te di a wa Moab la: “Souple, kite papa m avèk manman m vin rete avèk ou jiskaske mwen konnen sa ke Bondye va fè pou mwen an.”
4 So he set them before the king of Moab, —and they dwelt with him, all the days that David was in the fortress.
Epi li te kite yo avèk wa Moab la. Yo te rete avèk li pandan tout tan ke David te nan fò a.
5 Then said Gad the prophet unto David—Thou must not abide in the fortress, go and get thee into the land of Judah. So David departed, and entered the forest of Hereth.
Pwofèt la, Gad, te di a David: “Pa rete nan fò a. Sòti ale nan peyi Juda.” Konsa, David te sòti e te ale nan forè a nan Héreth.
6 And, when Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him—Saul, being seated in Gibeah under the tamarisk-tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants stationed by him, —
Alò Saül te tande ke David avèk mesye ki te avèk li yo te vin dekouvri. Konsa, Saül te chita nan Guibea anba pye tamaren an sou ti mòn lan avèk frenn li nan men l e tout sèvitè li yo te kanpe antoure li.
7 then said Saul unto his servants who were stationed by him—Hear, I pray you, ye Benjamites! What! even to all of you, will the son of Jesse give fields and vineyards? All of you, will he appoint to be princes of thousands, and princes of hundreds?
Saül te di a sèvitè ki te kanpe antoure li yo: “Tande koulye a, O Benjamit yo! Èske fis a Jesse a, osi bannou tout chan kiltive avèk chan rezen? Èske li va fè nou tout kòmandan a dè milye e kòmandan a dè santèn?
8 That ye have conspired, all of you, against me, and there is none to uncover mine ear as to the covenanting of my son with the son of Jesse? And none from among you that taketh pity upon me, and that uncovereth mine ear [to this], —that, mine own son, hath stirred up, my servants, against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?
Paske nou tout te fè konplo kont mwen jiskaske pèsòn pa t fè m konnen lè fis mwen an te fè yon akò avèk fis a Jesse a. Nanpwen nan nou ki gen regrè pou mwen, ni ki di mwen ke fis mwen an te fòse sèvitè pa m yo kont mwen pou kouche an anbiskad, jan li ye la jodi a.”
9 Then answered Doeg the Edomite—he, being stationed near the servants of Saul—and said, —I saw the son of Jesse coming into Nob, unto Ahimelech son of Ahitub;
Alò, Doëg, Edomit lan, ki te kanpe akote sèvitè Saül yo te di: “Mwen te wè fis a Jesse a lè l t ap vini Nob, kote Achimélec, fis a Achithub la.
10 Then enquired he for him of Yahweh, Provisions also, gave he unto him, —and, the sword of Goliath the Philistine, gave he unto him.
Li te konsilte SENYÈ a pou li, li te ba li pwovizyon e li te bay li nepe Goliath la, Filisten an.”
11 Then the king sent to call Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, the priest, and all the house of his father—the priests, who were in Nob, —and they came, all of them, unto the king.
Alò, wa a te voye yon moun pou livre yon lòd prezans obligatwa pou Achimélec, prèt la, fis Achithub la, avèk tout lakay papa li, prèt ki te nan Nob yo. Epi tout te vin parèt devan wa a.
12 And Saul said, Hear, I pray thee, thou son of Ahitub! And he said—Behold me! my lord.
Saül te di: “Koute koulye a, fis a Achithub la.” Epi li te reponn: “Men mwen isit la, mèt mwen.”
13 And Saul said unto him, Wherefore have ye conspired against me, thou, and the son of Jesse, —in that thou gavest him bread and a sword, and didst enquire for him of God, that he might rise up against me, that he might lie in wait, as at this day?
Alò, Saül te di li: “Poukisa ou menm avèk fis a Jesse a te fè konplo kont mwen nan afè ba li pen, avèk yon nepe e konsilte avèk Bondye pou li, pou li kapab leve kont mwen e kache fè anbiskad, jan sa ye la jodi a?”
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, —But who, among all thy servants, like David, is, faithful, being son-in-law to the king, and, cometh near to have audience with thee, and is, honoured in thy household?
Alò, Achimélec te reponn wa a e te di: “Epi se kilès pami sèvitè ou yo ki fidèl tankou David, bofis menm a wa a, ki se kapitèn gad ou e onore lakay ou?
15 Did I, that day, begin to enquire for him of God? Far from me! Let not the king impute to his servant such a thing, nor to any of the household of my father, for thy servant knoweth nothing of all this, less or more.
Èske se jodi a ke m fenk kòmanse konsilte Bondye pou li? Lwen de mwen, sa! Pa kite wa a fè okenn move panse sou sèvitè li a, ni okenn moun lakay papa m; paske sèvitè ou a pa konnen anyen nan afè sila a.”
16 And the king said: Thou shalt, die, Ahimelech, —thou and all the household of thy father.
Men wa a te di: “Anverite, ou va mouri, Achimélec; ou menm avèk tout lakay papa ou!”
17 And the king said unto the runners that were stationed by him—Turn ye round and put to death the priests of Yahweh, because, their hand also, is with David, and because they knew that he was, in flight, and unveiled not mine ear. But the servants of the king were not willing to thrust forth their hand, to fall upon the priests of Yahweh.
Epi wa a te di a gad ki te okipe li yo: “Vire mete prèt SENYÈ a a lanmò, akoz men yo avèk David e akoz yo te konnen ke li te sove ale e yo pa t revele sa a mwen menm.” Men sèvitè a wa yo pa t vle lonje men yo pou atake prèt SENYÈ yo.
18 Then said the king to Doeg, Turn, thou, and fall upon the priests. So Doeg the Edomite turned, and, himself, fell upon the priests, and put to death, that day, four score and five men bearing an ephod of linen;
Alò, wa a te di a Doëg: “Ou menm vire atake prèt yo.” Epi Doëg, Edomit lan, te vire atake prèt yo e te touye katre-ven-senk òm ki te abiye ak efòd len an.
19 Nob also, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, —and oxen and asses and sheep, with the edge of the sword.
Epi li te frape Nob, vil prèt yo avèk lam nepe, ni gason, ni fanm, ni timoun ni bebe, ansanm avèk bèf, bourik ak mouton avèk lam nepe.
20 But there escaped one son of Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, whose, name, was Abiathar, —and he fled after David.
Men youn nan fis Achimélec yo ki te rele Abiathar te chape sove ale pou twouve David.
21 So Abiathar told David, —that Saul had slain the priests of Yahweh.
Abiathar te di David ke Saül te touye prèt SENYÈ yo.
22 Then said David to Abiathar—I knew, that day, when Doeg the Edomite was, there, that he would, surely tell, Saul. I, am chargeable with all the lives of the house of thy father.
Alò, David te di a Abiathar: “Mwen te konnen nan jou sa a, lè Doëg, Edomit lan, te la, ke li t ap byensi pale ak Saül. Mwen te fè rive lanmò a chak moun lakay papa ou yo.
23 Abide with me! do not fear, for, whoso seeketh my life, seeketh thy life, —for, in safeguard, shall thou be, with me.
Rete avèk mwen. Pa pè. Moun ki vle touye ou a ap eseye touye mwen tou. Ou va ansekirite avèk mwen.”
