1 Samyèl 13
1 Sayil te majè lè yo te fè l' wa. Li pase kèk tan ap gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned two years over Israel,
2 Sayil chwazi twamil (3000) gason nan pèp Izrayèl la, epi li voye tout rès yo al lakay yo. Li pran demil gason, li fè yo rete avè l' lavil Mikmas ak nan mòn Betèl la. Lòt mil yo te avèk Jonatan, pitit gason Sayil la, lavil Gibeya nan peyi moun Benjamen yo.
Saul chose him three thousand men of Israel; whereof two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in mount Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent.
3 Jonatan touye chèf moun Filisti yo ki te rete lavil Gibeya a. Moun Filisti yo vin konn sa. Sayil voye moun kònen twonpèt nan tout peyi a pou avèti pèp ebre a.
And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear.
4 Nouvèl la gaye nan tout pèp Izrayèl la: Sayil te touye chèf moun Filisti yo. Koulye a moun Filisti yo pa vle wè pèp Izrayèl la. Se konsa tout pèp la vin jwenn Sayil lavil Gilgal, yo kanpe avè l'.
And all Israel heard say that Saul had smitten a garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel also was had in abomination with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.
5 Moun Filisti yo menm, bò pa yo tou, sanble pou y' al atake pèp Izrayèl la. Yo te gen trantmil (30.000) cha lagè, simil (6000) kavalye. Pou sòlda apye menm, moun pa t' ka konte sa. Ou ta di grenn sab bò lanmè. Yo moute al pran pozisyon bò lavil Mikmas, sou bò solèy leve lavil Bètavenn.
And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven.
6 Moun pèp Izrayèl yo wè zafè a pa t' bon pou yo menm. Moun Filisti yo te atake moun pèp Izrayèl yo ak fòs. Pèp Izrayèl la vin pèdi espwa. Sa pa t' bon menm pou yo. Gen ladan yo ki al kache nan gwòt, nan twou wòch, dèyè gwo wòch, nan pi, nan twou anba tè.
When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, (for the people were distressed, ) then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.
7 Genyen ki menm janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, al nan peyi moun Gad yo ak moun Galarad yo. Sayil menm te lavil Gilgal toujou. Tout moun ki te avè l' yo t'ap tranble sitèlman yo te pè.
And some of the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
8 Dapre dat Samyèl te fikse ba li a, li rete la sèt jou ap tann Samyèl. Sèt jou yo pase, Samyèl pa vin lavil Gilgal. Pèp la konmanse vire do yo kite Sayil.
And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.
9 Lè Sayil wè sa, li di yo: -Mennen bèt pou boule nan dife yo ban mwen ansanm ak lòt ofrann pou mande Bondye padon yo. Epi li fè ofrann pou boule nan dife a.
And Saul said, Bring here a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering.
10 Li t'ap fini fè sèvis ofrann pou boule nan dife a lè Samyèl parèt. Sayil al kontre l' pou di l' bonjou.
And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.
11 Samyèl di li: -Kisa ou fè konsa? Sayil reponn li: -Mwen wè pèp la t'ap pati kite m'. Ou menm, ou pa t' vini lè ou te di ou t'ap vini an. Lèfini, moun Filisti yo t'ap sanble bò lavil Mikmas la.
And Samuel said, What have you done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you came not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;
12 Mwen di nan kè m': Men moun Filisti yo pral vin atake m' isit la lavil Gilgal, epi mwen pa fè anyen pou mete Seyè a bò kote m'. Se konsa mwen pran sou kont mwen pou m' fè ofrann bèt pou boule nan dife pou Seyè a.
Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now on me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to the LORD: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.
13 Samyèl di Sayil konsa: -Se bagay moun fou ou fè la a! Ou pa swiv lòd Seyè a, Bondye ou la, te ba ou. Si ou te swiv lòd li, li ta kite ou gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la, lèfini pitit ou yo ta ranplase ou jouk sa kaba.
And Samuel said to Saul, You have done foolishly: you have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which he commanded you: for now would the LORD have established your kingdom on Israel for ever.
14 Men koulye a, rèy ou pa la pou lontan. Seyè a pral chache yon lòt moun ki va fè tou sa l'a vle l' fè, l'a mete l' chèf sou pèp li a, tou sa paske ou pa t' swiv lòd Seyè a te ba ou a.
But now your kingdom shall not continue: the LORD has sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD has commanded him to be captain over his people, because you have not kept that which the LORD commanded you.
15 Epi Samyèl leve, li kite lavil Gilgal l' al fè wout li. Tout rès pèp la pran swiv Sayil ki leve al jwenn sòlda li yo. Yo pati kite Gilgal, y' ale lavil Gibeya nan peyi moun Benjamen yo. Sayil fè enspeksyon lame ki te avè l' la. Te gen sisan (600) sòlda konsa.
And Samuel arose, and got him up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were present with him, about six hundred men.
16 Sayil rete nan peyi moun Benjamen yo ansanm ak Jonatan, pitit gason l' lan, ak moun ki te avè l' yo. Moun Filisti yo menm pran pozisyon lavil Mikmas.
And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were present with them, stayed in Gibeah of Benjamin: but the Philistines encamped in Michmash.
17 Sòlda Filisti yo soti kote yo te ye a pou y' al kraze brize. Yo fè twa gwoup. Yon gwoup pran chemen ki mennen lavil Ofra nan peyi Chwal la.
And the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned to the way that leads to Ophrah, to the land of Shual:
18 Yon lòt gwoup pran chemen ki mennen lavil Bètowon, ak yon lòt gwoup pran chemen ki mennen sou fwontyè a, kote moun ka donminen tout fon Zeboyim lan ale nan dezè a.
And another company turned the way to Bethhoron: and another company turned to the way of the border that looks to the valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.
19 Lè sa a, nan tan sa a, nan tout peyi Izrayèl la yo pa t' ka jwenn fòjon paske moun Filisti yo te soti pou pa kite ebre yo fè ni nepe ni lans fè.
Now there was no smith found throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make them swords or spears:
20 Se konsa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo te blije al lakay moun Filisti yo pou fè dan chari yo, wou yo, rach yo ak kouto digo yo.
But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his share, and his coulter, and his ax, and his mattock.
21 Moun Filisti yo te mande yo yon ti pyès ajan pou file chak dan rach epi pou fè pwent frenn yo, de ti pyès ajan pou fè dan chari yo ak pwent wou yo.
Yet they had a file for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads.
22 Se sa ki fè, lè jou batay la rive, pa t' gen yonn nan mesye ki te avèk Sayil ak Jonatan yo ki te gen yon nepe osinon yon lans fè. Sèl Sayil ak Jonatan, pitit gason l' lan, te gen yonn pou yo chak.
So it came to pass in the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan: but with Saul and with Jonathan his son was there found.
23 Moun Filisti yo voye yon ganizon al defann pas Mikmas la.
And the garrison of the Philistines went out to the passage of Michmash.
