2 Samuel 15
1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared him chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
Alò, li te rive apre sa ke Absalom te fè pwovizyon pou tèt li yon cha avèk cheval ak senkant mesye pou kouri devan li.
2 And Absalom rose early, and stood beside the way of the gate: and it was [so], that when any man that had a controversy came to the king for judgment, then Absalom called to him, and said, Of what city [art] thou? And he said, Thy servant [is] one of the tribes of Israel.
Absalom te konn leve granmmaten e kanpe akote chemen an devan pòtay la. Konsa, lè yon moun ta gen yon pwosè, e te vin kote wa a pou jijman, Absalom te rele li e di: “Nan ki vil ou sòti?” Epi li ta di: “Sèvitè ou a sòti nan youn nan tribi Israël yo.”
3 And Absalom said to him, See, thy matters [are] good and right; but [there is] no man [deputed] by the king to hear thee.
Alò, Absalom ta di a li: “Ou wè, ka ou yo bon e jis; men nanpwen pèsòn ki pou koute ou nan non a wa a.”
4 Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who hath any suit or cause might come to me, and I would do him justice!
Anplis, Absalom te di: “Oswa ke yon moun ta chwazi mwen jij nan peyi a; alò, konsa chak moun ki te gen yon ka oswa yon pwosè ta kapab vin kote mwen e mwen ta ba li jistis.”
5 And it was [so], that when any man came nigh [to him] to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him.
Epi lè yon mesye ta vin kote li pou bese li menm devan li, li ta lonje men li, kenbe li e bo li.
6 And in this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment: so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
Nan jan sa a, Absalom te konn aji avèk tout Israël lè yo te pwoche wa a pou jijman. Konsa, Absalom te vòlè kè a mesye Israël yo.
7 And it came to pass after forty years, that Absalom said to the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to the LORD, in Hebron.
Alò, li te rive ke nan fen karant ane ke Absalom te di a Wa a: “Souple, kite mwen ale peye ve ke m te fè a SENYÈ a, nan Hébron.
8 For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Syria, saying, If the LORD shall bring me again indeed to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.
Paske sèvitè ou a te fè yon ve pandan mwen t ap viv Gueschur Aram, e li te di: ‘Si SENYÈ a va vrèman mennen mwen retounen Jérusalem; alò, mwen va sèvi SENYÈ a’”.
9 And the king said to him, Go in peace, So he arose, and went to Hebron.
Wa a te di li: “Ale anpè.” Konsa, li te leve ale Hébron.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as ye hear the sound of the trumpet, then ye shall say, Absalom reigneth in Hebron.
Men Absalom te voye espyon toupatou pami tout tribi Israël yo. Li te di: “Depi ou tande son a twonpèt la, alò, ou va di: ‘Absalom se wa nan Hébron.’”
11 And with Absalom went two hundred men from Jerusalem, [that were] called; and they went in their simplicity, and they knew not any thing.
Konsa, de-san mesye yo te ale avèk Absalom soti Jérusalem. Yo te envite; yo te ale nan inosans, san yo pa konnen anyen.
12 And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city, [even] from Giloh, while he offered sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Epi Absalom te voye pou Achitophel, Gilonit lan, konseye David, soti nan vil pa li nan Guilo, pandan li t ap ofri sakrifis yo. Konplo a te fò, paske moun avèk Absalom yo te kontinye vin plis.
13 And there came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.
Alò, yon mesaje te vin kote David. Li te di: “Kè a mesye Israël yo avèk Absalom.”
14 And David said to all his servants that [were] with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee; for we shall not [else] escape from Absalom: make speed to depart, lest he should overtake us suddenly, and bring evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.
Konsa, David te di a tout sèvitè ki te avèk li yo Jérusalem: “Leve e annou sove ale, paske si se pa sa, nanpwen nan nou ki va chape de Absalom. Ale vit, oswa li va rive sou nou byen vit, fè gwo malè rive sou nou e frape vil la avèk lam nepe.”
15 And the king's servants said to the king, Behold, thy servants [are ready to do] whatever my lord the king shall appoint.
Alò, sèvitè a wa yo te di a wa a: “Gade, sèvitè ou yo va fè nenpòt sa ke wa a vle.”
16 And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women [who were] concubines to keep the house.
Konsa, wa a te sòti avèk tout manm lakay li avèk li. Men wa a te kite dis nan ti mennaj li yo pou pran swen kay la.
17 And the king went forth, and all the people after him, and tarried in a place that was far off.
Wa a te sòti e tout pèp la avèk li, e yo te rete nan dènye kay la.
18 And all his servants passed on by his side; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
Alò, tout sèvitè li yo te pase akote li, tout Keretyen yo avèk tout Peletyen yo ak tout Gatyen yo, sis-san moun ki te vini avèk li soti Gath, te pase devan wa a.
19 Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite, Why goest thou also with us? return to thy place, and abide with the king; for thou [art] a stranger, and also an exile.
Alò, wa a te di a Ittaï, Gatyen an: “Poukisa ou ta ale avèk nou tou? Retounen rete avèk wa a; paske ou se yon etranje e yon egzile de pwòp plas ou.
20 Whereas thou camest [but] yesterday, should I this day make thee go up and down with us? seeing I go whither I may; return thou, and take back thy brethren: mercy and truth [be] with thee.
Ayè ou te vini e èske, jodi a, mwen ta dwe fè ou mache egare avèk nou pandan mwen prale kote mwen prale a? Retounen reprann frè ou yo. Ke gras avèk verite kapab avèk ou.”
21 And Ittai answered the king, and said, [As] the LORD liveth, and [as] my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also will thy servant be.
Men Ittaï te reponn wa a. Li te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, anverite, nenpòt kote ke mèt mwen an, wa a, ye, kit pou mouri, kit pou viv, se la tou sèvitè ou a va ye.”
22 And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that [were] with him.
Pou sa, David te di Ittaï: “Ale, janbe lòtbò.” Konsa Ittaï, Gatyen an te janbe avèk tout mesye pa li yo ak tout pitit ki te avèk li yo.
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over, towards the way of the wilderness.
Pandan tout peyi a t ap kriye avèk gwo vwa, tout pèp la te pase janbe. Wa a tou te pase janbe flèv Cédron an, e tout pèp la te pase janbe lòtbò vè chemen dezè a.
24 And lo, Zadok also, and all the Levites [were] with him bearing the ark of the covenant of God: and they set down the ark of God; and Abiathar went up, until all the people had done passing out of the city.
Alò, gade byen, Tsadok te parèt tou, ansanm avèk tout Levit ki t ap pote lach akò Bondye a. Epi yo te poze lach Bondye a e Abithar te monte la jiskaske tout pèp la te fin kite vil la.
25 And the king said to Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I shall find favor in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me again, and show me [both] it, and his habitation:
Wa a te di a Tsadok: “Retounen lach Bondye a nan vil la. Si mwen jwenn favè nan zye Bondye; alò, Li va mennen mwen retounen ankò pou montre mwen a Li menm e a abitasyon pa Li a.
26 But if he shall thus say, I have no delight in thee; behold, [here am] I, let him do to me as seemeth good to him.
Men si Li ta di konsa: ‘Mwen pa gen kè kontan avè w’, gade byen, men mwen, kite Li fè sa ki sanble bon pou Li menm.”
27 The king said also to Zadok the priest, [Art not] thou a seer? return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Wa a te di osi a Tsadok, prèt la: “Èske se pa yon divinò ke ou ye? Retounen nan vil la anpè, de fis ou yo avèk ou, fis ou Achimaats, avèk Jonathan, fis a Abiathar a.
28 See, I will tarry in the plain of the wilderness, until word shall come from you to certify me.
Gade, mwen pral tann nan pasaj dezè a jiskaske pawòl ou rive enfòme mwen.”
29 Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to Jerusalem: and they tarried there.
Pou sa, Tsadok avèk Abiathar te retounen lach Bondye a Jérusalem e te rete la.
30 And David went up by the ascent of [mount] Olivet, and wept as he went, and had his head covered, and he went barefoot: and all the people that [were] with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went.
Epi David te monte pant a Mòn Oliv la. Li t ap kriye pandan li t ap monte, tèt li te kouvri e li te mache pye atè. Alò, nan tout moun ki te avèk li yo, chak moun te kouvri tèt yo e t ap monte avèk gwo kriye pandan yo t ap prale.
31 And [one] told David, saying, Ahithophel [is] among the conspirators with Absalom. And David said, O LORD, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.
Alò, yon moun te pale David e te di: “Achitophel se pami konplotè avèk Absalom yo.” Epi David te di: “O SENYÈ, mwen priye, redwi a foli tout konsèy a Achitophel la.”
32 And it came to pass, that [when] David had come to the top [of the mount], where he worshiped God, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head;
Li te rive pandan David t ap pwoche krèt mòn nan, kote yo adore Bondye a, ke vwala, Huschaï, Achit la, te rankontre li avèk manto li chire ak pousyè sou tèt li.
33 To whom David said, If thou shalt pass on with me, then thou wilt be a burden to me:
David te di li: “Si ou janbe lòtbò avè m; alò, ou va ankonbre m.
34 But if thou shalt return to the city, and say to Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king; [as] I [have been] thy father's servant hitherto, so [will] I now also [be] thy servant: then mayest thou for me defeat the counsel of Ahithophel.
Men si ou retounen lavil la e di a Absalom: ‘Mwen va sèvi ou, O wa a. Jan mwen te sèvi papa ou nan tan pase a, konsa, mwen va koulye a, devni sèvitè pa ou’, konsa, ou kapab vin kontrekare konsèy Achitophel la pou mwen.
35 And [hast thou] not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? therefore it shall be, [that] whatever thing thou shalt hear out of the king's house, thou shalt tell [it] to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
Èske Tsadok avèk Abiathar se pa prèt ki avèk ou la a? Pou sa, nenpòt sa ou tande soti lakay wa a, ou va bay rapò a Tsadok avèk Abaithar, prèt yo.
36 Behold, [they have] there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz Zadok's [son], and Jonathan Abiathar's [son]; and by them ye shall send to me every thing that ye can hear.
Gade byen, de fis pa yo a avèk yo la a, Achimaats, fis a Tsadok a e Jonathan, fis a Abaithar a; epi pa yo menm, ou va voye ban mwen tout bagay ke ou tande yo.”
37 So Hushai David's friend came into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Konsa, Huschaï, zanmi a David la, te antre nan vil la, e Absalom te vini Jérusalem.
