< 1 Samyèl 27 >
1 David di nan kè l': -Yon jou konsa Sayil ap touye m'. L'a pi bon pou mwen si m' sove al kache nan peyi Filisti a. Konsa, Sayil va sispann mache chache m' nan tout peyi pèp Izrayèl la. p'ap gen danje pou mwen ankò.
And Dauid said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul: is it not better for me that I saue my selfe in the lande of the Philistims, and that Saul may haue no hope of me to seeke me any more in all the coastes of Israel, and so escape out of his hand?
2 David leve ansanm ak sisan (600) moun pa l' yo, y' ale kay Akich, pitit gason Maòk la, ki te wa lavil Gat.
Dauid therefore arose, and he, and the sixe hundreth men that were with him, went vnto Achish the sonne of Maoch King of Gath.
3 David ak mesye l' yo rete ak Akich lavil Gat ak tout fanmi yo. David te gen de madanm ak li: Akinoam, yon fanm lavil Jizreyèl ak Abigayèl, madan defen Nabal, moun lavil Kamèl.
And Dauid dwelt with Achish at Gath, he, and his men, euery man with his housholde, Dauid with his two wiues, Ahinoam the Izreelite, and Abigail Nabals wife the Carmelite.
4 Lè Sayil vin tande David te kouri al kache lavil Gat, li sispann mache chache l' pou mete men sou li.
And it was tolde Saul that Dauid was fled to Gath: so he sought no more for him.
5 David di Akich konsa: -Si ou se zanmi m' vre, ban m' yon ti plas nan yonn nan bouk andeyò yo pou m' rete. Pa gen rezon, monwa, pou m' rete viv ansanm avè ou nan kapital la.
And Dauid saide vnto Achish, If I haue nowe founde peace in thine eyes, let them giue me a place in some other citie of the countrey, that I may dwell there: for why should thy seruant dwel in ye head citie of the kingdome with thee?
6 Se konsa, jou sa a, Akich ba li lavil Ziklag. Se poutèt sa, depi jou sa a, lavil Ziklag toujou rete pou wa peyi Jida yo.
Then Achish gaue him Ziklag that same day: therefore Ziklag pertaineth vnto the kings of Iudah vnto this day.
7 David pase ennan kat mwa ap viv nan peyi moun Filisti yo.
And the time that Dauid dwelt in the countrey of the Philistims, was foure moneths and certaine dayes.
8 Tanzantan, David ak mesye l' yo te konn pati al atake moun Jechou yo, moun Jizi yo ak moun Amalèk yo jouk lakay yo. Depi tout tan se pèp sa yo ki te rete nan zòn ki soti depi lavil Telayim, nan direksyon lavil Chou rive jouk peyi Lejip.
Then Dauid and his men went vp, and inuaded the Geshurites, and the Girzites, and the Amalekites: for they inhabited the lande from the beginning, from the way, as thou goest to Shur, euen vnto the lande of Egypt.
9 Se konsa, David te dechèpiye tout peyi a, li touye fanm kou gason. Li pran mouton moun yo, bèf yo, bourik yo, chamo yo, ata rad yo. Lèfini, li tounen al jwenn Akich.
And Dauid smote the lande, and left neither man nor woman aliue, and tooke sheepe, and oxen, and asses, and camels, and apparell, and returned and came to Achish.
10 Lè Akich mande l': -Ki kote ou t' al demele ou jòdi a? David te kouri reponn li se nan zòn Negèv nan peyi Jida a, osinon nan zòn sid peyi moun Jerakmeyèl yo, ou ankò nan zòn sid teritwa moun Kayen yo.
And Achish said, Where haue ye bene a rouing this day? And Dauid answered, Against the South of Iudah, and against the South of the Ierahmeelites, and against the South of ye Kenites.
11 Men David te toujou touye tout moun, fanm kou gason, paske li t'ap di nan kè l' konsa pesonn p'ap ka al di moun lavil Gat yo sa li te fè yo. Se sa David t'ap mache fè pandan tout tan li pase nan peyi Filisti a.
And Dauid saued neither man nor woman aliue, to bring them to Gath, saying, Lest they should tel on vs, and say, So did Dauid, and so will be his maner all the while that he dwelleth in the countrey of the Philistims.
12 Akich menm te fè David konfyans. Li t'ap di nan kè l': -Msye tèlman fè moun pèp Izrayèl yo rayi l', l'ap blije rete pase tout rès lavi l' ap sèvi m'.
And Achish beleeued Dauid, saying, He hath made his people of Israel vtterly to abhorre him: therefore he shalbe my seruant for euer.
