2 Samuel 18
1 Therfor Dauid, whanne the puple `was biholdun, ordeynede tribunes and centuriouns on hem.
Alò, David te konte moun ki te avèk li yo e te plase sou yo chèf dè milye e chèf dè santèn.
2 And he yaf the thridde part of the puple vndur the hond of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Abisai, sone of Saruye, brother of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Ethai, that was of Geth. And the kyng seide to the puple, Also Y schal go out with you.
David te voye moun yo deyò, yon tyè anba lòd Joab, yon tyè anba lòd Abischaï, fis a Tseruja a, frè Joab la ak yon tyè anba lòd Ittaï, Gatyen an. Epi wa a te di a moun yo: “Mwen menm va anverite, sòti avèk nou tou.”
3 And the puple answeride, Thou schalt not go out; for whether we fleen, it schal not perteyne to hem bi greet werk of vs; whether half the part fallith doun of vs, thei schulen not recke ynow, for thou art rekynyd for ten thousynde; therfor it is betere, that thou be to vs in the citee in stronge hold.
Men moun yo te di: “Ou pa dwe sòti; paske si nou vrèman sove ale, yo p ap okipe nou; menm si mwatye ta mouri, yo p ap okipe nou. Men valè pa w vo di-mil a nou menm; pou rezon sa a, li pi bon pou ede nou soti nan vil la.”
4 `To whiche the kyng seide, Y schal do this, that semeth riytful to you. Therfor the kyng stood bisidis the yate, and the puple yede out bi her cumpenyes, bi hundridis and bi thousyndis.
Alò wa a te di yo: “Nenpòt sa ki sanble bon a nou menm, se sa m ap fè.” Pou sa, wa a te kanpe akote pòtay la e tout moun yo te sòti pa santèn e pa milye.
5 And the king comaundide to Joab, and to Abisai, and Ethai, and seyde, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon. And al the puple herde the kyng comaundinge to alle the princes for Absolon.
Wa a te bay lòd a Joab avèk Abischaï avèk Ittaï e te di: “Pou koz mwen, aji dousman avèk jennonm nan, Absalom.” Epi tout moun yo te tande lè wa a te pase lòd a tout chèf yo sou Absalom an.
6 Therfor the puple yede out in to the feeld ayens Israel; and the batel was maad in the forest of Effraym.
Alò, moun yo te antre nan chan kont Israël e batay la te fèt nan forè Ephraïm nan.
7 And the puple of Israel was slayn there of the oost of Dauid, and a greet sleyng of twenti thousynde was maad in that dai.
Moun Israël yo te bat la devan sèvitè a David yo e masak la te byen gwo, ven-mil òm.
8 Forsothe the batel was scaterid there on the face of al erthe, and many mo weren of the puple whiche the forest wastide, than thei whiche the swerd deuourid in that dai.
Paske batay la te gaye sou tout teritwa peyi a e forè a te devore plis moun nan jou sa a ke nepe ta devore.
9 Sotheli it bifeld, that Absalon sittinge on a mule, cam ayens the seruauntis of Dauid; and whanne the mule hadde entrid vndur a thicke ook, and greet, the heed of Absolon cleuyde to the ook; and whanne he was hangid bitwixe heuene and erthe, the mule, on which he sat, passide.
Alò, Absalom te vin rankontre sèvitè a David yo. Paske Absalom te monte sou milèt li e milèt la te antre anba gwo branch a yon gwo bwadchenn. Epi tèt li te kole rèd nan chenn nan e li te vin kwoke antre syèl avèk tè a, pandan milèt la anba li t ap kontinye ale.
10 Sotheli `sum man siy this, and telde to Joab, and seide, Y siy Absolon hange on an ook.
Lè yon sèten mesye te wè sa, li te pale Joab, e te di: “Gade byen, mwen te wè Absalom pandye nan yon gwo bwadchenn.”
11 And Joab seide to the man that `hadde telde to hym, If thou siyest, whi persidist thou not hym to the erthe, and Y schulde haue youe `to thee ten siclis of siluer, and a girdil?
Epi Joab te di a mesye ki te di sa a: “Gade, ou te wè l? Poukisa konsa ou pa t frape li la pou l tonbe atè? Konsa, mwen ta ba ou dis pyès ajan avèk yon senti.”
12 And he seide to Joab, Thouy thou paiedist in myn hondis a thousynde platis of siluer, Y nolde sende myn hond in to the sone of the king; for the while we herden, the kyng comaundide to thee, and to Abisai, and to Ethai, and seide, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon.
Mesye a te di Joab: “Menm si mwen ta resevwa mil pyès ajan nan men m, mwen pa t ap lonje men m kont fis a wa a; paske nan tande nou, wa a te kòmande ou avèk Abischaï ak Ittaï, e te di: ‘Pwoteje pou mwen jennonm nan, Absalom!’
13 But and if Y hadde do ayens my lijf hardili, this myyte not be hid fro the kyng, and thou woldist stonde on the contrarye side.
Otreman, si m te aji nan mechanste kont lavi li (e nanpwen anyen ki kache a wa a), alò, ou menm ta kanpe lwen de sa.”
14 And Joab seide, Not as thou wolt, `Absolon schal be kept, but Y schal asaile hym bifor thee. Therfore Joab took thre speris in his hond, and fitchide tho in the herte of Absolon. And whanne he spraulide, yit cleuynge in the ook,
Joab te di: “Mwen p ap gaspiye tan avè w isit la.” Konsa, li te pran twa frenn nan men l e li te frennen fè yo pase sou kè Absalom pandan li te toujou vivan nan mitan bwadchenn nan.
15 ten yonge squieris of Joab runnen, and smytiden, and killiden hym.
Epi dis jennonm ki te pote zam pou Joab yo te antoure li, yo te frape Absalom e te touye li.
16 Sotheli Joab sownede with a clarioun, and withhelde the puple, lest it pursuede Israel fleynge, and he wolde spare the multitude.
Alò, Joab te soufle twonpèt la e moun yo te retounen soti kouri dèyè Israël, paske Joab te ralanti moun yo.
17 And thei token Absolon, and castiden forth him in to a greet dich in the forest, and baren togidere a ful greet heep of stoonys on hym; forsothe al Israel fledde in to his tabernaclis.
Yo te pran Absalom, yo te jete li nan yon gwo twou vid nan mitan forè a e te monte sou li yon gwo pil wòch. Epi tout Israël te sove ale, chak moun nan pwòp tant pa yo.
18 Forsothe Absolon, while he lyuyde yit, hadde reisid to hym a memorial, which is in the valey of the kyng; for he seide, Y haue no sone, and this schal be the mynde of my name; and he clepide `the memorial bi his name, and it is clepid the Hond, `that is, werk, of Absolon `til to this dai.
Alò, Absalom, pandan lavi li te fè monte pou li menm yon gwo pilye ki nan Vale a Wa a, paske li te di: “Mwen pa gen fis pou prezève non mwen.” Konsa, li te rele pilye a pa non li e li rele Moniman Absalom jis rive jodi a.
19 Forsothe Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide, Y schal renne, and Y schal telle to the kyng, that the Lord hath maad doom to hym of the hond of hise enemyes.
Alò, Achimaats, fis a Tsadok la te di: “Souple, kite mwen kouri pote nouvèl la bay wa a ke SENYÈ a gen tan delivre li anba men lènmi li yo.”
20 To whom Joab seide, Thou schalt not be messanger in this dai, but thou schalt telle in another dai; I nyle that thou telle to dai, for the sone of the kyng is deed.
Men Joab te di li: “Ou menm se pa nonm ki pou pote nouvèl la nan jou sa a, malgre ke ou va pote li yon lòt jou, men ou p ap pote li jodi a, paske fis a wa a mouri.”
21 And Joab seide to Chusi, Go thou, and telle to the kyng tho thingis that thou hast seyn. Chusi worschypide Joab, and ran.
Alò, Joab te di a Etyopyen an: “Ale, pale wa a sa ou te wè a.” Konsa, Etyopyen an te bese devan Joab e te kouri ale.
22 Eft Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide to Joab, What lettith, if also Y renne aftir Chusi? And Joab seide to hym, What wolt thou renne, my sone? Come thou hidur, thou schalt not be a berere of good message.
Alò, Achimaats, fis a Tsadok la te di yon lòt fwa a Joab: “Malgre nenpòt sa ki rive, kite mwen tou kouri dèyè Etyopyen an.” Epi Joab te di: “Poukisa ou ta kouri, fis mwen, kòmsi ou p ap twouve rekonpans pou ale a?”
23 Which answeride, `What sotheli if Y schal renne? And Joab seide to hym, Renn thou. Therfor Achymaas ran bi the weie of schortnesse, `and sped, and passide Chusi.
“Malgre sa ki rive”, li te di: “Mwen va kouri”. Epi Achimaats te kouri nan wout plèn nan e te vin depase Etyopyen an.
24 Forsothe Dauid sat bitwixe twei yatis; sotheli the spiere, that was in the hiynesse of the yate on the wal, reiside the iyen, and siy a man aloone rennynge;
Alò, David te chita antre de pòtay yo; epi gadyen an te monte sou twati pòtay sou mi an. Li te leve zye li e te gade. Men vwala, yon nonm ki t ap kouri li sèl a li menm.
25 and the spiere criede, and schewide to the kyng. And the kyng seide to hym, If he is aloone, good message is in his mouth.
Gadyen an te kouri pale wa a. Epi wa a te di: “Si se sèl li menm k ap vini, se bòn nouvèl nan bouch li.” Epi li te pwoche pi pre e pi pre toujou.
26 Sotheli while he hastide, and neiyede neer, the spiere siy another man rennynge; and the spiere criede `in the hiynesse, and seide, Another man rennynge aloone apperith to me. And the kyng seide to hym, And this man is a good messanger.
Apre sa, gadyen an te wè yon lòt moun ki t ap kouri; epi gadyen an te rele gadyen pòtay la e te di: “Gade byen, gen yon lòt moun k ap kouri pou kont li.” Epi wa a te di: “Sila a tou ap pote bòn nouvèl.”
27 Sotheli the spiere seide, Y biholde the rennyng of the formere, as the rennyng of Achymaas, sone of Sadoch. And the kyng seide, He is a good man, and he cometh bryngynge a good message.
Gadyen an te di: “Mwen kwè ke kouri a premye a sanble kouri a Achimaats, fis a Tsadok la.” Epi wa a te di: “Sa se yon bon mesye e li pote bòn nouvèl.”
28 Forsothe Achymaas criede, and seide to the kyng, Heil kyng! And he worschipide the kyng lowli bifor hym to erthe, and seide, Blessid be thi Lord God, that closide togidere the men, that reisyden her hondis ayens my lord the kyng.
Achimaats te rele e te di a wa a: “Tout bagay sòti byen.” Epi li te bese figi atè devan wa a, e li te di: “Beni se SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, ki te livre bay mesye ki te leve men kont mèt mwen an, wa a.”
29 And the kyng seide, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? And Achymaas seide, Y siy, `that is, Y herde, a great noise, whanne Joab, thi seruaunt, thou kyng, sente me thi seruaunt; Y kan noon othir thing.
Wa a te di: “Èske tout bagay byen avèk jennonm nan, Absalom?” Epi Achimaats te reponn: “Lè Joab te voye sèvitè a wa a, sèvitè ou menm nan, mwen te wè yon gwo zen; men mwen pa t konnen kisa.”
30 To whom the kyng seide, Passe thou, and stonde here. And whanne he hadde passid, and stood, Chusi apperide;
Epi wa a te di: “Mete ou akote e kanpe la.” Konsa, li te mete li akote e te kanpe tann la.
31 and he cam and seide, My lord the kyng, Y brynge good message; for the Lord hath demed to dai for thee of the hond of alle men that risiden ayens thee.
Gade byen, Etyopyen an te rive e Etyopyen an te di: “Kite mèt mwen an, wa a resevwa bòn nouvèl; paske SENYÈ a te delivre ou nan jou sa a soti nan men a tout sila ki te leve kont ou yo.”
32 Forsothe the kyng seide to Chusi, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? To whom Chusi answeride, and seide, The enemyes of my lord the kyng, and alle men that risiden ayens hym in to yuel, be maad as the child.
Alò, wa a te di a Etyopyen an: “Èske sa byen avèk jennonm nan, Absalom?” Epi Etyopyen an te reponn: “Kite lènmi a mèt mwen yo, wa a, ak tout moun ki leve kont ou pou mal yo, devni tankou jennonm sila a!”
33 Therfor the kyng was sory, and stiede in to the soler of the yate, and wepte, and spak thus goynge, My sone, Absolon! Absolon, my sone! who yyueth to me, that Y die for thee? Absolon, my sone! my sone, Absolon!
Wa a te sezi avèk emosyon e te monte nan chanm nan sou pòtay la pou te kriye. Epi konsa li te di pandan li t ap mache: “O fis mwen Absalom, fis mwen, fis mwen Absalom! Pito se te mwen ki te mouri olye de ou menm, O Absalom, fis mwen, fis mwen!”
