1 Samyèl 28
1 Kèk tan apre sa, moun Filisti yo sanble tout sòlda yo pou y' al goumen ak pèp Izrayèl la. Lè sa a, Akich di David: -Ou tou konnen se pou ou pati ansanm avè m' ak mesye ou yo pou n' al goumen.
And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their armies together for warfare to fight with Israel. And Achish said to David, Know thou assuredly, that thou shall go out with me in the army, thou and thy men.
2 David reponn li: -Se moun ou mwen ye. Ou pral wè sa m' ka fè. Akich di li: -Bon! Apre sa, m'ap fè ou gad kò mwen pou tout tan.
And David said to Achish, Therefore thou shall know what thy servant will do. And Achish said to David, Therefore I will make thee my chief bodyguard forever.
3 Samyèl te deja mouri lè sa a, tout pèp Izrayèl la te kriye kont kriye yo pou li. Apre sa, yo antere l' lavil Rama kote li te moun. Sayil te mete tout divinò deyò nan peyi a ansanm ak tout moun ki konn rele mò pou pale ak yo.
Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away those who had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.
4 Sòlda moun Filisti yo te sanble, yo moute kan yo bò lavil Chounèm. Sayil menm sanble tout sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo, epi li moute kan l' sou mòn Gilboa.
And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and encamped in Shunem. And Saul gathered all Israel together, and they encamped in Gilboa.
5 Lè Sayil wè lame moun Filisti yo, li soti pè, kè l' pran bat byen fò.
And when Saul saw the army of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.
6 Se konsa, li mande Seyè a sa pou l' fè. Men, Seyè a pa ba li ankenn repons, ni nan rèv, ni avèk ourim yo, ni nan mesaj pwofèt yo.
And when Saul inquired of Jehovah, Jehovah answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.
7 Lè sa a, Sayil rele moun k'ap sèvi avè l' yo, li ba yo lòd sa a: -Al chache kote nou ka jwenn yon fanm ki konn rele mò pou l' travay pou mwen. Yo reponn li: -Gen yonn lavil Andò.
Then Saul said to his servants, Seek me a woman who has a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman who has a familiar spirit at En-dor.
8 Sayil mete lòt kalite rad sou li, li maske. Li leve, li pati ak de moun pa l'. Yo rive kay fanm lan nan mitan lannwit. Sayil di fanm lan: -M' pral ba ou non yon mò pou ou rele pou mwen. Rele li pou mwen tanpri, pou m' konnen sa ki pral rive m'.
And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and went, he and two men with him. And they came to the woman by night, and he said, Divine to me, I pray thee, by the familiar spirit, and bring me up whomever I shall name to thee.
9 Men, fanm lan di l': -Ou konnen sa wa Sayil te fè a pa vre? Li te mete tout divinò ak tout moun k'ap pale ak mò deyò nan peyi a wi. Poukisa atò w'ap seye pran m' nan plan pou fè yo touye m'?
And the woman said to him, Behold, thou know what Saul has done, how he has cut off those who have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land. Why then do thou lay a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
10 Sayil pran non Bondye fè sèman, li di: -Devan Seyè ki vivan an, mwen fè sèman yo p'ap fè ou anyen pou zafè sa a.
And Saul swore to her by Jehovah, saying, As Jehovah lives, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
11 Fanm lan di l': -Ki moun pou m' rele pou ou? Li reponn: -Rele Samyèl pou mwen.
Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
12 Lè madanm lan wè Samyèl, li pete rele, li di Sayil: -Poukisa ou twonpe m' konsa? Ou se wa Sayil!
And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice. And the woman spoke to Saul, saying, Why have thou deceived me? For thou are Saul.
13 Wa a di l': -Ou pa bezwen pè. Kisa ou wè? Fanm lan di Sayil: -Mwen wè yon lespri k'ap moute soti anba tè a.
And the king said to her, Be not afraid, for what do thou see? And the woman said to Saul, I see a god coming up out of the earth.
14 Wa a di l': -Kisa ou wè li sanble? Fanm lan reponn: -Se yon vye granmoun gason k'ap moute la a. Li vlope nan yon gwo dra. Lè sa a, Sayil vin konnen se te Samyèl. Li tonbe ajenou, li bese tèt li jouk atè.
And he said to her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man comes up, and he is covered with a robe. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and did obeisance.
15 Samyèl di Sayil: -Poukisa ou detounen m' konsa? Poukisa ou fè m' remoute la a en? Sayil di li: -Mwen nan gwo tèt chaje: Moun Filisti yo ap fè m' lagè. Epi Bondye vire do ban mwen. Li pa pale avè m' ankò, ni nan rèv, ni nan mesaj pwofèt yo. Se poutèt sa, mwen fè rele ou pou ou ka fè m' konnen sa pou m' fè.
And Samuel said to Saul, Why have thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am greatly distressed, for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answers me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams. Therefore I have called thee, that thou may make known to me what I shall do.
16 Samyèl di l': -Koulye a Seyè a vire do ba ou, li tounen lènmi ou, poukisa se mwen menm w'ap mande bagay konsa?
And Samuel said, Why then do thou ask of me, since Jehovah departed from thee, and has become thine adversary?
17 Seyè a annik fè sa li te di m' di ou la: li wete gouvènman an nan men ou, li bay David li pito.
And Jehovah has done to thee, as he spoke by me. And Jehovah has torn the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to thy neighbor, even to David.
18 Ou pa t' koute sa Seyè a te di ou, ou pa t' detwi moun Amalèk yo nèt ansanm ak tou sa yo te genyen. Se poutèt sa Seyè a fè ou sa li fè ou jòdi a.
Because thou obeyed not the voice of Jehovah, and did not execute his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore Jehovah has done this thing to thee this day.
19 Li pral lage ou ansanm ak tout pèp Izrayèl la nan men moun Filisti yo. Denmen lè konsa, ni ou menm ni pitit gason ou yo ap menm kote avè m'. Seyè a pral lage lame pèp Izrayèl la nan men moun Filisti yo.
Moreover Jehovah will deliver Israel also with thee into the hand of the Philistines, and tomorrow thou and thy sons shall be with me. Jehovah will also deliver the army of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.
20 Tande Sayil tande sa, li tonbe tou long atè, li te pè akòz pawòl Samyèl te di l' la a. Li te fèb anpil tou, paske li pa t' manje anyen depi maten.
Then Saul fell straightaway his full length upon the earth, and was greatly afraid because of the words of Samuel, and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
21 Fanm lan al jwenn Sayil atè a, li wè jan Sayil t'ap tranble tèlman li te pè. Li di l' konsa: -Tanpri, mèt, tande sa m'ap di ou: Mwen te mete lavi m' an danje pou m' te fè sa ou te mande m' fè a.
And the woman came to Saul, and saw that he was greatly troubled, and said to him, Behold, thy handmaid has hearkened to thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened to thy words which thou spoke to me.
22 Koulye a, tanpri, tande sa m'ap di ou. Ou pral fè sa m'a pral di ou la a: Kite m' al pare yon ti manje pou ou. W'a manje, w'a pran fòs ankò pou ou ka al fè wout ou.
Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee, and eat, that thou may have strength when thou go on thy way.
23 Sayil refize, li di li p'ap manje anyen. Men mesye ki te avè l' yo ansanm ak fanm lan pale avè l', yo fè l' tande rezon. Bout pou bout, li dakò, li leve sot atè a, li chita sou kabann lan.
But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants, together with the woman, constrained him, and he hearkened to their voice. So he arose from the ground, and sat upon the bed.
24 Fanm lan te gen yon ti bèf li t'ap angrese lakay li. Li prese touye l'. Apre sa, li pran farin, li fè pat avè l', li kwit kèk ti pen san ledven.
And the woman had a fatted calf in the house. And she hastened, and killed it, and she took flour, and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread of it.
25 Li pote tout bagay sa yo devan Sayil ak mesye l' yo. Yo manje. Lèfini, lannwit lan menm yo leve, yo pati.
And she brought it before Saul, and before his servants, and they ate. Then they rose up, and went away that night.
