1 Istwa 11
1 Tout branch fanmi Izrayèl yo vin jwenn David lavil Ebwon, yo di l' konsa: -Nou se moun menm ras, menm fanmi avè ou.
And all Israel is gathered to David at Hebron, saying, “Behold, we [are] your bone and your flesh;
2 Depi lontan, menm sou rèy wa Sayil, se ou menm ki te kòmande lame pèp Izrayèl la kote l' ale. Lèfini ankò, Seyè a, Bondye ou la, te pwomèt se ou menm ki pral gouvènen pèp li a, pèp Izrayèl la. Se ou menm ki pral chèf yo.
even in time past, even in Saul’s being king, it is you who are taking out and bringing in Israel, and your God YHWH says to you: You feed My people Israel, and you are leader over My people Israel.”
3 Se konsa, tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo vin jwenn David lavil Ebwon. Yo pase yon kontra avè l' devan Seyè a. Yo fè seremoni, yo mete l' wa sou pèp Izrayèl la tou, jan Seyè a te fè pwomès la nan bouch pwofèt Samyèl.
And all [the] elderly of Israel come to the king at Hebron, and David makes a covenant with them in Hebron before YHWH, and they anoint David for king over Israel, according to the word of YHWH by the hand of Samuel.
4 David mache sou lavil Jerizalèm ansanm ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Lè sa a, lavil la te rele Jebis. Se moun Jebis yo, premye moun ki te rete nan peyi a, ki t'ap viv la toujou.
And David goes, and all Israel, to Jerusalem—it [is] Jebus—and the Jebusite [is] there, the inhabitants of the land.
5 Moun Jebis yo te di David: Ou p'ap janm ka rive antre nan lavil nou an. Men David pran gwo fò ki te sou tèt mòn Siyon an. Se li yo rele lavil David la.
And the inhabitants of Jebus say to David, “You do not come in here”; and David captures the fortress of Zion—it [is] the City of David.
6 David pou tèt pa l' te di premye moun ki va atake moun Jebis yo, l'ap mete l' chèf, moun sa a ap grannèg nan gouvènman l' lan. Joab, pitit gason Sewouya a, te premye moun ki atake. Se konsa li vin chèf.
And David says, “Whoever strikes the Jebusite first becomes head and prince”; and Joab son of Zeruiah goes up first and becomes head.
7 Apre sa, David al rete nan fò a. Se poutèt sa yo rele l' lavil David la.
And David dwells in the fortress, therefore they have called it the City of David;
8 Lèfini, li bati lòt kay fè wonn fò a, depi sou teras la rive bò palè a. Joab menm rebati rès lavil la.
and he builds the city all around, from Millo, and to the circumference, and Joab restores the rest of the city.
9 Chak jou David t'ap vin pi fò. Seyè a, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, te kanpe avè l'.
And David goes, going on and becoming great, and YHWH of Hosts [is] with him.
10 Men non chèf vanyan sòlda David yo. Se yo ki te soutni gouvènman David la ansanm ak tout pèp Izrayèl la pou l' te ka wa, jan Seyè a te pwomèt moun Izrayèl yo sa.
And these [are] heads of the mighty ones whom David has, who are strengthening themselves with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to cause him to reign, according to the word of YHWH, over Israel.
11 Pou konmanse, te gen Jakobeyam ki soti nan branch fanmi Akmoni an. Se li menm ki te chèf twa pi vanyan yo. Pou kont li, li batay ak twasan (300) moun ak frenn li ase. Li touye yo tout yon sèl kou.
And this [is] an account of the mighty ones whom David has: Jashobeam son of a Hachmonite [is] head of the thirty; he is lifting up his spear against three hundred—wounded, at one time.
12 Dezyèm lan te rele Eleaza, pitit gason Dodo, pitit yon moun lavil Akwo. Se te yonn nan twa pi vanyan yo.
And after him [is] Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite, he [is] among the three mighty;
13 Li te avèk David lè David t'ap goumen ak moun Filisti yo nan batay bò Pasdamen an. Li te nan yon jaden lòj lè sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo konmanse kouri devan moun Filisti yo.
he has been with David in Pas-Dammim, and the Philistines have been gathered there to battle, and a portion of the field is full of barley, and the people have fled from the face of the Philistines,
14 Se konsa, li menm ak sòlda li yo, yo tout rete kanpe nan mitan jaden lòj la, yo kenbe tèt ak moun Filisti yo, yo bat yo byen bat, yo kraze yo. Se konsa Seyè a te fè yo genyen batay la sou lènmi yo.
and they station themselves in the midst of the portion, and deliver it, and strike the Philistines, and YHWH saves [with] a great salvation.
15 Yon lòt jou, nan sezon rekòt, twa nan gwoup Trant yo al jwenn David nan gwòt Adoulam lan. Lame moun Filisti yo te moute kan yo nan plenn moun Refayim yo.
And three of the thirty heads go down on the rock to David, to the cave of Adullam, and the host of the Philistines is encamping in the Valley of Rephaim,
16 Lè sa a, David te nan fò a. Yon gwoup moun Filisti te pran lavil Betleyèm.
and David [is] then in the fortress, and the station of the Philistines [is] then in Beth-Lehem,
17 Yon sèl anvi pran David, li di konsa: -Ki moun ki va fè m' bwè ti gout dlo nan pi ki nan pòtay lavil Betleyèm lan?
and David longs and says, “Who gives me water to drink from the well of Beth-Lehem that [is] at the gate!”
18 Lamenm twa mesye yo desann, yo fofile kò yo nan mitan moun Filisti yo, yo pran dlo nan pi ki te nan pòtay lavil Betleyèm lan, yo pote l' vin bay David. Men, David refize bwè dlo a. Li vide l' atè, li ofri l' bay Seyè a.
And the three break through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water from the well of Beth-Lehem that [is] at the gate, and carry and bring [it] to David, and David has not been willing to drink it, and pours it out to YHWH,
19 Li di konsa: -Seyè, mwen pa gen dwa bwè dlo sa a. Se tankou si m' ta bwè san mesye sa yo ki riske lavi yo pou y' al chache l'. Se konsa, li derefize bwè dlo a. Se sa twa vanyan gason sa yo te fè.
and says, “Far be it from me, by my God, to do this; do I drink the blood of these men with their lives? For with their lives they have brought it”; and he was not willing to drink it; these [things] the three mighty ones did.
20 Abichayi, frè Joab, te chèf trant vanyan yo. Pou kont li, avèk yon frenn nan men l', li goumen ak twasan (300) moun, li touye yo. Se konsa, tout moun t'ap nonmen non l' nan gwoup Trant vanyan yo.
And Abishai brother of Joab, he has been head of the three: and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred—wounded, and has a name among three.
21 Se li menm ki te resevwa plis lwanj nan Trant vanyan yo. Apre sa, li vin chèf yo. Men, li pa janm rive fè sa twa pi vanyan yo te fè.
Of the three he is more honored than the [other] two, and becomes their head; but he has not come to the [first] three.
22 Benaja, pitit gason Jeojada a, moun lavil Kabseyèl, te pitit pitit yon vanyan sòlda. Li te fè anpil bagay ki fè wè li pa t' manke kouraj. Se li menm ki te touye de pitit Ariyèl yo, moun lavil Moab. Yon jou, lanèj t'ap tonbe, li desann nan yon sitèn dlo al touye yon lyon.
Benaiah son of Jehoiada, son of a man of valor, of great deeds, from Kabzeel: he has struck the two lion-like Moabites, and he has gone down and struck the lion in the midst of the pit, in the day of snow.
23 Li touye tou yon moun peyi Lejip, yon gwo potorik gason sèt pye sis pous wotè, ki te gen yon gwo frenn nan men li. Frenn lan te gen yon manch menm gwosè ak yon gwo mach pilon. Benaja menm al atake li ak yon baton ase. Li wete lans lan nan men moun peyi Lejip la, epi li touye l' avè l'.
And he has struck the man, the Egyptian, a man of [great] measure—five by the cubit—and in the hand of the Egyptian [is] a spear like a weavers’ beam, and he goes down to him with a rod, and violently takes away the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slays him with his own spear.
24 Men sa Benaja, pitit gason Jeojada a, te fè. Se konsa, tout moun t'ap nonmen non l' nan gwoup Trant Vanyan yo.
These [things] Benaiah son of Jehoiada has done, and has a name among the three mighty ones.
25 Se non li yo t'ap nonmen pi plis nan Trant Vanyan yo. Apre sa, li vin chèf yo. Men, li pa t' janm rive fè sa twa pi vanyan yo te fè. David te mete l' nan gad kò li.
Of the thirty, behold, he [is] honored, but he has not come to the [first] three, and David sets him over his guard.
