1 Samuel 23
1 David was told, “Behold, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah, and are robbing the threshing floors.”
Yon jou, David vin konnen moun Filisti yo t' al atake lavil Keyila, yo t'ap vòlò tout grenn jaden moun yo te gen sou glasi yo.
2 Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go and strike these Philistines?” The LORD said to David, “Go strike the Philistines, and save Keilah.”
Lè sa a, David al mande Seyè a: -Eske mwen mèt al atake moun Filisti yo? Seyè a di David: -Ou mèt ale! Atake yo. Delivre lavil Keyila.
3 David’s men said to him, “Behold, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?”
Men, moun David yo di l' konsa: -Kote nou ye bò isit la nan peyi Jida, nou te pè kont kò nou deja. Sa pral pi rèd pou nou si se pou n' al lavil Keyila pou n' goumen ak lame moun Filisti yo.
4 Then David inquired of the LORD yet again. The LORD answered him, and said, “Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into your hand.”
David tounen al pale ak Seyè a ankò. Seyè a reponn li: -Leve non! Desann lavil Keyila, paske m'ap lage moun Filisti yo nan men ou.
5 David and his men went to Keilah and fought with the Philistines, and brought away their livestock, and killed them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.
Se konsa, David mache sou lavil Keyila avèk tout moun ki te avè l' yo. Li atake moun Filisti yo. Li touye anpil nan yo, epi li pran tout zannimo yo. Se konsa David te delivre moun lavil Keyila yo.
6 When Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David to Keilah, he came down with an ephod in his hand.
Lè Abyata, pitit gason Akimelèk la, te sove al jwenn David, li te desann lavil Keyila avèk Bwat Kontra Bondye a nan men l'.
7 Saul was told that David had come to Keilah. Saul said, “God has delivered him into my hand, for he is shut in by entering into a town that has gates and bars.”
Yo vin di Sayil David te desann lavil Keyila. Epi Sayil di: -Bondye lage l' nan men m' koulye a. Gade ki jan David al fèmen kò l' nan yon lavil ki gen gwo miray ak gwo pòtay byen solid!
8 Saul summoned all the people to war, to go down to Keilah to besiege David and his men.
Se konsa Sayil fè rele tout lame li a pou y' al goumen, pou yo mache sou lavil Keyila, pou yo sènen David ansanm ak tout moun ki te avè l' yo.
9 David knew that Saul was devising mischief against him. He said to Abiathar the priest, “Bring the ephod here.”
Lè David tande Sayil te fè lide vin atake l', li rele Abyata, prèt la, li di l' konsa: -Pote Bwat Bondye a vini!
10 Then David said, “O LORD, the God of Israel, your servant has surely heard that Saul seeks to come to Keilah to destroy the city for my sake.
Epi David di: -Seyè, ou menm ki Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, mwen tande yo di Sayil pare pou l' antre lavil Keyila, pou l' kraze l' nèt e se dèyè m' li ye.
11 Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? Will Saul come down, as your servant has heard? LORD, the God of Israel, I beg you, tell your servant.” The LORD said, “He will come down.”
Eske moun lavil Keyila yo pral lage m' nan men l'? Eske se tout bon Sayil ap desann jan yo di m' li an? O Seyè, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, tanpri, di m' si se vre? Seyè a reponn: -Sayil ap desann vre!
12 Then David said, “Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul?” The LORD said, “They will deliver you up.”
David di li: -Eske moun lavil Keyila yo pral lage m' nan men Sayil? Seyè a reponn: -Y'ap fè l' vre.
13 Then David and his men, who were about six hundred, arose and departed out of Keilah and went wherever they could go. Saul was told that David had escaped from Keilah; and he gave up going there.
Se konsa David leve ansanm ak tout moun ki te avè l' yo. Yo te sisan (600) konsa. Yo kite lavil Keyila lamenm, yo pati, yo pran mache san konnen kote yo prale. Lè Sayil vin konnen David te chape soti lavil Keyila, li chanje lide, li pa mache sou Keyila ankò.
14 David stayed in the wilderness in the strongholds, and remained in the hill country in the wilderness of Ziph. Saul sought him every day, but God didn’t deliver him into his hand.
David te rete kache nan falèz ki nan dezè Zif la, Sayil menm chak jou t'ap chache l'. Men, Bondye pa janm lage David nan men Sayil.
15 David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life. David was in the wilderness of Ziph in the woods.
Atousa David te pè toujou paske li te konnen Sayil te soti pou touye l'. David te bò lavil Oreya, nan dezè Zif la.
16 Jonathan, Saul’s son, arose and went to David into the woods, and strengthened his hand in God.
Jonatan, pitit Sayil la, al jwenn li la, li t'ap ba l' kouraj. Li t'ap di l' ki jan Bondye ap toujou la avèk li.
17 He said to him, “Don’t be afraid, for the hand of Saul my father won’t find you; and you will be king over Israel, and I will be next to you; and Saul my father knows that also.”
Li t'ap di l' konsa: -David monchè, ou pa bezwen pè! Sayil, papa m', p'ap janm ka jwenn ou. Se ou menm ki gen pou wa pèp Izrayèl la. Mwen menm, m'ap vin apre ou. Ata Sayil, papa m', konn sa tou!
18 They both made a covenant before the LORD. Then David stayed in the woods and Jonathan went to his house.
De mesye yo koupe yon kontra pou yo toujou zanmi devan Seyè a. David rete lavil Oreya, Jonatan ale ale l' lakay li.
19 Then the Ziphites came up to Saul to Gibeah, saying, “Doesn’t David hide himself with us in the strongholds in the woods, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of the desert?
Kèk moun nan zòn Zif la moute al jwenn Sayil lavil Gibeya, y' al di l': -Men David kache nan peyi nou an, nan falèz ki bò lavil Oreya, sou mòn Akiya ki nan bò sid dezè Jida a.
20 Now therefore, O king, come down. According to all the desire of your soul to come down; and our part will be to deliver him up into the king’s hand.”
Nenpòt kilè ou fè lide desann lakay nou, ou mèt desann, n'a mete men sou li pou nou ba ou li.
21 Saul said, “You are blessed by the LORD, for you have had compassion on me.
Sayil reponn yo: -Se pou Seyè a beni nou pou sa n'ap fè pou mwen la a.
22 Please go make yet more sure, and know and see his place where his haunt is, and who has seen him there; for I have been told that he is very cunning.
Ale non. Ale wè si se vre. Se pou nou chache konnen byen kote li fè, ki moun ki wè l' la. Paske yo di m' li malen anpil.
23 See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hides himself; and come again to me with certainty, and I will go with you. It shall happen, if he is in the land, that I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah.”
Chache konnen tout kote li kab kache. Epi lè n'a sèten tout bon, n'a tounen vin jwenn mwen. Lè sa a, m'a desann avèk nou. Si li la toujou nan peyi a, m' aval chache l', menm si m' dwe fouye nan tout rakwen peyi Jida a.
24 They arose, and went to Ziph before Saul; but David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah on the south of the desert.
Se konsa moun Zif yo leve, yo pran devan wa a, yo pati pou peyi yo. David menm ansanm ak moun li yo te nan dezè Maon an, nan fon ki nan pòsyon sid dezè a.
25 Saul and his men went to seek him. When David was told, he went down to the rock, and stayed in the wilderness of Maon. When Saul heard that, he pursued David in the wilderness of Maon.
Sayil ak moun pa l' yo mete chache David. Men David vin konn sa. Li desann nan Pas Galèt la, ki nan dezè Maon an. Epi li rete la. Lè Sayil vin konn sa, li desann dèyè David nan dezè Maon an.
26 Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain; and David hurried to get away for fear of Saul, for Saul and his men surrounded David and his men to take them.
Sayil ak mesye l' yo t'ap mache sou yon bò ravin lan sou flan mòn lan. David menm ak mesye pa l' yo t'ap mache sou lòt bò a, sou flan mòn anfas la tou. Li t'ap kouri pou l' te ka mete bèl distans ant li ak Sayil ki t'ap pwoche dèyè l'. Sayil te prèt pou mete men sou li.
27 But a messenger came to Saul, saying, “Hurry and come, for the Philistines have made a raid on the land!”
Lè sa a, yon mesaje vin jwenn Sayil, li di l' konsa: -Tounen touswit, paske men moun Filisti yo ap anvayi peyi a.
28 So Saul returned from pursuing David, and went against the Philistines. Therefore they called that place Sela Hammahlekoth.
Sayil sispann kouri dèyè David, l' al mache kontre moun Filisti yo. Se poutèt sa yo rele ravin sa a Galèt Separasyon.
29 David went up from there and lived in the strongholds of En Gedi.
David menm ale nan falèz Angedi yo, li rete kache la.
