< 1 Samuel 30 >

1 And it cometh to pass, in the coming in of David and his men to Ziklag, on the third day, that the Amalekites have pushed unto the south, and unto Ziklag, and smite Ziklag, and burn it with fire,
Alò, li vin rive lè David avèk mesye pa li yo te vini Tsiklag nan twazyèm jou a, ke Amalekit yo te fè yon atak sou Negev ak sou Tsiklag pou te detwi Tsiklag e te brile li avèk dife.
2 and they take captive the women who [are] in it; from small unto great they have not put any one to death, and they lead away, and go on their way.
Anplis, yo te pran an kaptivite fanm ki te ladann yo, ni piti ni gran, san touye pèsòn, yo te pran yo e ale fè wout yo.
3 And David cometh in — and his men — unto the city, and lo, burnt with fire, and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters have been taken captive!
Lè David avèk mesye li yo te vini nan vil la, vwala, li te brile avèk dife. Madanm yo ak fis pa yo e fi pa yo te pran an kaptivite.
4 And David lifteth up — and the people who [are] with him — their voice and weep, till that they have no power to weep.
Alò David avèk moun ki te avè l yo te leve vwa yo e te kriye jiskaske yo pa t gen fòs nan yo pou kriye.
5 And the two wives of David have been taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelite;
Alò, de madanm a David yo te pran an kaptivite, Achinoam, Jizreyelit la ak Abigaïl, vèv Nabal la, Kamelit la.
6 and David hath great distress, for the people have said to stone him, for the soul of all the people hath been bitter, each for his sons and for his daughters; and David doth strengthen himself in Jehovah his God.
Anplis ke sa David te nan gwo pwoblèm akoz moun yo t ap pale afè lapide li, paske tout moun yo te anmè, yo tout akoz fis yo ak fi yo. Men David te ranfòse li menm nan SENYÈ a, Bondye li a.
7 And David saith unto Abiathar the priest, son of Ahimelech, 'Bring nigh, I pray thee, to me the ephod;' and Abiathar bringeth nigh the ephod unto David,
David te di a Abiathar, prèt la, fis Achimélec la: “Souple, pote ban m efòd la.” Konsa, Abiathar te pote efòd la bay David.
8 and David asketh at Jehovah, saying, 'I pursue after this troop — do I overtake it?' And He saith to him, 'Pursue, for thou dost certainly overtake, and dost certainly deliver.'
David te fè demann SENYÈ a. Li te mande: “Èske mwen dwe swiv bann mouton sa a? Èske mwen va gen tan jwenn yo?” Epi Li te reponn li: “Swiv yo, paske ou va anverite, jwenn yo, e ou va sove tout.”
9 And David goeth on, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, and they come in unto the brook of Besor, and those left have stood still,
Konsa, David te ale, li ansanm avèk sis-san mesye ki te avèk li yo. Yo te rive kote ravin Besor a, kote sila ki te kite dèyè yo te rete a.
10 and David pursueth, he and four hundred men, (and two hundred men stand still who have been too faint to pass over the brook of Besor),
Men David te kontinye pouswiv, li menm avèk kat-san mesye yo. Paske lòt de-san nan yo ki te twò bouke pou travèse ravin Besor a, te rete.
11 and they find a man, an Egyptian, in the field, and take him unto David, and give to him bread, and he eateth, and they cause him to drink water,
Konsa, yo te twouve yon Ejipsyen nan chan an e yo te mennen li kote David. Yo te ba li pen pou li te manje e yo te bay li dlo pou l bwè.
12 and give to him a piece of a bunch of dried figs, and two bunches of raisins, and he eateth, and his spirit returneth unto him, for he hath not eaten bread nor drunk water three days and three nights.
Yo te ba li yon mòso gato fig etranje ak de grap rezen pou li te manje. Epi lespri li te vin leve, paske li pa t manje ni bwè dlo pandan twa jou ak twa nwit.
13 And David saith to him, 'Whose [art] thou? and whence [art] thou?' And he saith, 'An Egyptian youth I [am], servant to a man, an Amalekite, and my lord forsaketh me, for I have been sick three days,
David te mande li: “Pou kilès ou ye? Kibò ou sòti?” Li te di: “Mwen se yon jennonm ki sòti an Égypte, sèvitè a yon Amalekit. Mèt mwen te kite m dèyè lè m te tonbe malad twa jou pase.
14 we pushed [to] the south of the Cherethite, and against that which [is] to Judah, and against the south of Caleb, and Ziklag we burned with fire.'
Nou te fè yon atak nan Negev a Keretyen yo ak sou sa ki apatyen a Juda a ak nan Negev pou Caleb la; epi nou te brile Tsiklag avèk dife.”
15 And David saith unto him, 'Dost thou bring me down unto this troop?' and he saith, 'Swear to me by God — thou dost not put me to death, nor dost thou shut me up into the hand of my lord — and I bring thee down unto this troop.'
Konsa, David te mande li: “Èske ou va mennen mwen desann kote lame sila a?” Li te reponn: “Sèmante a mwen menm pa Bondye pou ou pa touye mwen ni livre mwen nan men a mèt mwen an, epi mwen va mennen ou desann kote lame sa a.”
16 And he bringeth him down, and lo, they are spread out over the face of all the earth, eating, and drinking, and feasting, with all the great spoil which they have taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
Lè li te mennen li desann, vwala, yo te gaye nan tout tè a, yo t ap manje, bwè e danse akoz tout gran piyaj ke yo te pran nan peyi Filisten avèk peyi Juda yo.
17 And David smiteth them from the twilight even unto the evening of the morrow, and there hath not escaped of them a man, except four hundred young men who have ridden on the camels, and are fled.
David te fè masak sou yo soti nan aswè jis rive nan pwochen jou a. Nanpwen yon nonm nan yo ki te chape, sof kat-san jennonm ki te monte sou chamo pou te sove ale.
18 And David delivereth all that the Amalekites have taken; also his two wives hath David delivered.
Konsa, David te reprann tout sa ke Amalekit yo te pran yo, e te livre reprann de madanm li yo.
19 And there hath not lacked to them [anything], from small unto great, and unto sons and daughters, and from the spoil, even unto all that they had taken to themselves, the whole hath David brought back,
Men anyen ki te pou yo pa t manke, ni piti, ni gran, fis oswa fi, piyaj, oswa nenpòt sa ke yo te pran pou yo menm; David te mennen tout retounen.
20 and David taketh the whole of the flock, and of the herd, they have led on before these cattle, and they say, 'This [is] David's spoil.'
Konsa, David te vin kaptire tout mouton ak bèf ki te pouse devan lòt bèt yo, epi yo te di: “Sa se piyaj a David.”
21 And David cometh in unto the two hundred men who were too faint to go after David, and whom they cause to abide at the brook of Besor, and they go out to meet David, and to meet the people who [are] with him, and David approacheth the people, and asketh of them of welfare.
Lè David te rive kote de-san mesye ki te twò bouke pou swiv David yo, sa yo ki te rete kote ravin Besor yo te parèt pou rankontre David avèk moun ki te avèk li yo. David te pwoche pèp la pou te salye yo.
22 And every bad and worthless man, of the men who have gone with David, answereth, yea, they say, 'Because that they have not gone with us we do not give to them of the spoil which we have delivered, except each his wife and his children, and they lead away and go.
Alò, tout mesye mechan yo avèk sanzave yo pami sila ki te ale avèk David yo te di: “Akoz yo pa t ale avèk nou, nou p ap bay yo anyen nan piyaj ke nou te reprann an, sof a chak mesye, madanm yo avèk pitit yo pou yo kapab mennen yo ale sòti.”
23 And David saith, 'Ye do not do so, my brethren, with that which Jehovah hath given to us, and He doth preserve us, and doth give the troop which cometh against us into our hand;
Alò, David te di: “Fòk nou pa fè sa, frè m yo, avèk sa ke SENYÈ a te bannou, ki te kenbe nou e livre nan men nou lame a ki te vini kont nou an.
24 and who doth hearken to you in this thing? for as the portion of him who was brought down into battle, so also [is] the portion of him who is abiding by the vessels — alike they share.'
Epi se kilès ki va koute ou nan afè sila a? Paske jan pòsyon a sila ki te desann nan batay la, se menm jan an pòsyon pa l ki rete avèk pwovizyon yo. Yo va separe menm jan an.”
25 And it cometh to pass from that day and forward, that he appointeth it for a statute and for an ordinance for Israel unto this day.
Se konsa ke li te ye depi nan jou sa a, ke li te fè l vin yon prensip ak yon règleman ke yo va separe menm jan an.
26 And David cometh in unto Ziklag, and sendeth of the spoil to the elders of Judah, to his friends, (saying, 'Lo, for you a blessing, of the spoil of the enemies of Jehovah),'
Alò, lè David te vini Tsiklag, li te voye nan piyaj la kote ansyen a Juda yo, a zanmi li yo, e li te di: “Gade byen, yon kado pou nou soti nan piyaj a lènmi a SENYÈ yo.”
27 to those in Beth-El, and to those in South Ramoth, and to those in Jattir,
Li te voye l a sila ki te Béthel yo, sila ki te Ramoth a Negev la ak sila ki te Jatthir yo,
28 and to those in Aroer, and to those in Siphmoth, and to those in Eshtemoa,
anplis, a sila ki te Aroër yo, a sila ki te Siphmoth yo ak sila ki te Eschthemoa yo,
29 and to those in Rachal, and to those in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to those in the cities of the Kenites,
epi a sila ki te Racal yo, sila ki te nan vil a Jerachmeyelit yo ak sila ki te nan vil a Kenyen yo,
30 and to those in Hormah, and to those in Chor-Ashan, and to those in Athach,
epi a sila ki te Horma yo, a sila ki te Cor-Aschan yo ak sila ki te Athac yo,
31 and to those in Hebron, and to all the places where David had gone up and down, he and his men.
epi a sila ki te Hébron yo, ak tout zòn kote David li menm avèk mesye li yo te abitye rete yo.
