< 1 Samuel 24 >

1 And it was just when he returned Saul from after [the] Philistines and people told to him saying there! David [is] in [the] wilderness of En Gedi.
Lè Sayil tounen soti fè lagè ak moun Filisti yo, yo vin di l' David te nan dezè Angedi a.
2 And he took Saul three thousand man chosen from all Israel and he went to seek David and men his on [the] face of [the] rocks of the mountain goats.
Sayil pran twamil (3000) sòlda nan pèp Izrayèl la, sa ki te fò anpil nan fè lagè. Epi li pati al chache David ak mesye l' yo sou solèy leve Wòch Kabrit mawon yo.
3 And he came to [the] folds of the sheep on the way and [was] there a cave and he went Saul to cover feet his and David and men his in [the] innermost parts of the cave [were] sitting.
Li rive devan yon gwòt ki te toupre yon pak mouton bò wout la. Li antre nan gwòt la al fè bezwen li. David menm te kache nan fon gwòt la ansanm ak mesye l' yo.
4 And they said [the] men of David to him here! the day which he said Yahweh to you here! I [am] about to give (enemy your *Q(K)*) in hand your and you will do to him just as it will be good in view your and he arose David and he cut off [the] skirt of the robe which [belonged] to Saul in secrecy.
Mesye yo di David konsa: -Men chans ou, men okazyon Seyè a te di l'ap ba ou a. Seyè a te di: L'ap lage lènmi ou la nan men ou, w'a fè sa ou vle avè l'. David leve, li mache tou dousman, li koupe yon moso nan rad Sayil san Sayil pa konn sa.
5 And it was after thus and it struck [the] heart of David him on that he had cut off [the] skirt which [belonged] to Saul.
Men apre sa, konsyans David repwoche l' pou ke rad Sayil li te koupe a.
6 And he said to men his far be it to me from Yahweh if I will do the thing this to lord my to [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh by stretching out hand my on him for [is] [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh he.
Li di moun li yo: -Mande Bondye padon! Mwen p'ap fè bagay konsa sou mèt mwen, moun Bondye chwazi pou wa a. Mwen p'ap janm leve men mwen sou li, paske se Seyè a menm ki te chwazi l' pou wa.
7 And he reprimanded David men his by the words and not he permitted them to rise up against Saul and Saul he arose from the cave and he went on the way.
David pale ak mesye l' yo pou yo wete lide konsa nan tèt yo. Li pa kite yo fè Sayil anyen. Sayil leve, li soti nan gwòt la, li mache al fè wout li.
8 And he arose David after thus and he went out (from from the cave *Q(K)*) and he called out after Saul saying O lord my the king and he looked Saul behind him and he bowed low David face [the] ground towards and he bowed down.
Lè sa a, David soti dèyè l', li rele l': -Monwa! Monwa! Sayil vire gade dèyè li. David tonbe ajenou, li bese tèt li jouk atè.
9 And he said David to Saul why? do you listen to [the] words of someone saying there! David [is] seeking harm your.
Epi li di: -Poukisa w'ap koute moun k'ap di ou m'ap chache fè malè sou ou?
10 Here! the day this they have seen eyes your this: he gave you Yahweh - this day - in hand my in the cave and someone said to kill you and it looked with compassion on you and I said not I will stretch out hand my on lord my for [is] [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh he.
Gade, jòdi a ou wè ak je ou ki jan Seyè a te lage ou nan men m' anndan gwòt la. Gen moun ki di m' se pou m' te touye ou. Men, kè m' fè m' mal pou ou. Mwen di mwen p'ap janm leve men m' sou mèt mwen, paske se Seyè a menm ki te chwazi ou pou wa.
11 And O father my see also see [the] skirt of robe your in hand my for when cut off I [the] skirt of robe your and not I killed you know and see that there not in hand my [is] evil and transgression and not I have sinned to you and you [are] lying in wait for life my to take it.
Gade, papa mwen! Men yon moso ke rad ou nan men m'! Mwen koupe moso ke rad ou, men mwen pa t' touye ou. Koulye a ou konnen, ou wè mwen pa gen anyen dèyè tèt mwen, mwen pa gen ankenn lide mechanste nan tèt mwen. Mwen pa fè ou anyen ki mal. Se ou menm k'ap chache touye m'.
12 May he judge Yahweh between me and between you and he will avenge me Yahweh from you and hand my not it will be on you.
Se pou Seyè a jije ant nou de a kilès ki antò! Se pou Seyè a pini ou pou sa w'ap fè m' la a, paske mwen menm, mwen p'ap janm leve men m' sou ou.
13 Just as it says [the] proverb of the ancient[s] from wicked [people] it comes forth wickedness and hand my not it will be on you.
Jan pwovèb granmoun lontan yo di: Se moun mechan ki fè mechanste! Men mwen p'ap leve men m' sou ou.
14 After whom? has he come out [the] king of Israel after whom? [are] you pursuing after a dog dead after a flea one.
Dèyè ki moun wa pèp Izrayèl la ye konsa? Dèyè ki moun l'ap kouri konsa? Dèyè yon chen mouri? Dèyè yon ti pis?
15 And he will become Yahweh a judge and he will judge between me and between you and may he see and may he conduct case my and may he vindicate me from hand your.
Seyè a va sèvi nou jij! L'a jije ant nou de a kilès ki antò! Se pou l' mete bouch nan zafè a, pou l' pran defans mwen, pou l' delivre m' anba men ou.
16 And it was - when finished David to speak the words these to Saul and he said Saul ¿ voice your [is] this O son my David and he lifted up Saul voice his and he wept.
Lè David fin pale, Sayil di: -Se pa vwa David, pitit gason m' lan, sa? Epi li pran kriye.
17 And he said to David [are] righteous you more than I for you you have dealt out to me good and I I have dealt out to you evil.
Li di David konsa: -Ou gen rezon. Se mwen ki antò! Ou te aji byen avè m'. Se mwen menm ki te aji mal avè ou.
18 (And you *Q(K)*) you have told this day this: you have done with me good [and] this: he delivered up me Yahweh in hand your and not you killed me.
Jòdi a ankò, ou fè m' wè se byen ou vle fè pou mwen paske, atout Seyè a lage m' nan men ou, ou pa touye m'.
19 And if he will find anyone enemy his and will he send away? him on a journey good and Yahweh may he reward you good in place of the day this [that] which you have done to me.
Lè yon moun jwenn okazyon pou l' mete men l' sou lènmi l', èske l'ap kite l' al fè wout li san li pa fè l' anyen? Bondye va beni ou pou sa ou fè pou mwen jòdi a.
20 And therefore here! I know that certainly you will reign and it will be established in hand your [the] kingdom of Israel.
Koulye a, mwen konnen ou gen pou ou wa vre. Avèk ou menm wa pèp Izrayèl la, gouvènman an ap kanpe fèm.
21 And therefore swear an oath! to me by Yahweh if you will cut off offspring my after me and if you will destroy name my from [the] house of father my.
Men tanpri, pwomèt mwen, nan non Seyè a, ou p'ap touye pitit mwen yo lè m'a mouri, pou non m' pa disparèt nan fanmi papa m'.
22 And he swore an oath David to Saul and he went Saul to house his and David and men his they went up to the stronghold.
David pwomèt Sayil li p'ap fè sa. Apre sa, Sayil al lakay li. David menm tounen nan kachèt li ansanm ak mesye pa l' yo.
