2 Samyèl 15

1 Apre sa, Absalon achte yon cha lagè ak tout chwal pou tèt pa li. Li pran senkant gason pou mache avèk li.

After this, Absalom prepared him charets and horses, and fiftie men to runne before him.

2 Chak maten, Absalon leve byen bonè, li al kanpe sou wout la bò pòtay lavil la. Chak fwa yon moun vini ak yon pwoblèm li ta renmen wa a regle pou li, Absalon rele l' sou kote, li mande l' ki bò li moun. Apre moun lan fin di l' moun ki branch fanmi li ye,

And Absalom rose vp early, and stoode hard by the entring in of the gate: and euery man that had any matter, and came to the King for iudgement, him did Absalom call vnto him, and sayde, Of what citie art thou? And he answered, Thy seruant is of one of the tribes of Israel.

3 Absalon di l' konsa: -Gade! Se ou menm ki gen rezon, lalwa avè ou. Men, p'ap gen yon moun kay wa a k'ap koute ou.

Then Absalom said vnto him, See, thy matters are good and righteous, but there is no man deputed of the King to heare thee.

4 Apre sa, li di ankò: -Ki moun ki va mete m' chèf nan peyi Izrayèl la? Lè sa a, tout moun ki ta gen yon zafè osinon yon plent ta vin jwenn mwen, mwen ta fè l' jistis.

Absalom sayd moreouer, Oh that I were made Iudge in the lande, that euery man which hath any matter of controuersie, might come to me, that I might do him iustice.

5 Chak fwa yon moun pwoche bò Absalon pou mete ajenou devan l', Absalon lonje men l', li kenbe l' epi li bo l'.

And when any man came neere to him, and did him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and tooke him, and kissed him.

6 Se konsa Absalon te fè ak tout moun peyi Izrayèl ki te vin bò kote wa a pou chache jistis. Se konsa li fè yo vin renmen l'.

And on this maner did Absalom to al Israel, that came to the King for iudgement: so Absalom stale the hearts of the men of Israel.

7 Apre katran, Absalon di wa David konsa: -Monwa, tanpri! Kite m' ale lavil Ebwon pou m' ka kenbe yon pwomès mwen te fè Seyè a.

And after fourtie yeeres, Absalom sayd vnto the King, I pray thee, let me go to Hebron, and render my vowe which I haue vowed vnto the Lord.

8 Antan mwen te lavil Gechou nan peyi Siri, mwen te pwomèt Seyè a si m' te tounen lavil Jerizalèm, mwen ta fè yon sèvis pou li Ebwon.

For thy seruant vowed a vowe when I remayned at Geshur, in Aram, saying, If the Lord shall bring me againe in deede to Ierusalem, I will serue the Lord.

9 Wa a di l': -Ale ak kè poze. Se konsa Absalon ale lavil Ebwon.

And the King sayd vnto him, Go in peace. So he arose, and went to Hebron.

10 Menm lè a, li voye mesaje nan tout branch fanmi Izrayèl yo pou di yo: Lè n'a tande twonpèt yo kònen, n'a fè konnen yo fè Absalon wa lavil Ebwon.

Then Absalom sent spyes throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, When yee heare the sound of the trumpet, Ye shall say, Absalom reigneth in Hebron.

11 Te gen desan (200) moun lavil Jerizalèm ki te pati avèk Absalon. Se Absalon ki te envite yo. Yo te byen kontan pati avè l', men yo pa t' konn anyen nan zafè konplo a.

And with Absalom went two hundreth men out of Ierusalem, that were called: and they went in their simplicitie, knowing nothing.

12 Antan Absalon t'ap ofri bèt pou Seyè a, li voye lavil Gilo al chache Achitofèl ki te yonn nan konseye David yo. Konplo a t'ap pran fòs. Patizan Absalon yo t'ap vin pi plis.

Also Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite Dauids counseller, from his citie Giloh, while he offred sacrifices: and the treason was great: for the people encreased still with Absalom.

13 Yon mesaje vin di David: -Moun peyi Izrayèl yo ap mache avèk Absalon, yo dakò avè l'.

Then came a messenger to Dauid, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are turned after Absalom.

14 Se konsa David rele moun pa l' yo ki te avè l' lavil Jerizalèm, li di yo: -Se pou n' prese mete deyò si nou vle chape anba men Absalon. Ann fè vit kite lavil la. Si se pa sa, talè l'ap sou nou. L'ap fè nou pase pa nou, l'ap touye dènye moun nan lavil la.

Then Dauid sayd vnto all his seruants that were with him at Ierusalem, Vp, and let vs flee: for we shall not escape from Absalom: make speede to depart, lest he come suddenly and take vs, and bring euill vpon vs, and smite the citie with the edge of the sworde.

15 Patizan wa yo reponn: -Wi, monwa. Nenpòt kisa ou vle nou fè, n'ap fè l'.

And the Kings seruants sayd vnto him, Behold, thy seruants are ready to do according to all that my lord the King shall appoynt.

16 Wa a pran tout fanmi l', li pati apye. Li kite dis nan fanm kay li yo pou okipe palè a.

So the King departed and all his houshold after him, and the King left ten concubines to keepe the house.

17 Wa a leve pati kite lavil la ansanm ak tout moun pa l' yo. Lè yo rive devan dènye kay la, yo fè yon kanpe.

And the King went forth and all the people after him, and taried in a place farre off.

18 Tout chèf li yo te kanpe bò kote l'. Yo kite tout gad pèsonèl wa a, ki vle di sòlda keretyen yo ak sòlda peletyen yo pase devan. Te gen sisan (600) sòlda moun lavil Gat ki te kite peyi yo vin jwenn David lavil Jerizalèm. Yo vin ap pase devan li tou.

And all his seruants went about him, and all the Cherethites and all the Pelethites and all the Gittites, euen sixe hudreth men which were come after him from Gath, went before the King.

19 Wa a rele Itayi, chèf moun lavil Gat yo, li di l' konsa: -Poukisa ou prale ak nou tou? Tounen non, monchè. Rete ak lòt wa a. Ou pa moun peyi a. Se kouri ou kouri vin kache isit la.

Then sayde the King to Ittai the Gittite, Wherefore commest thou also with vs? Returne aud abide with the King, for thou art a stranger: depart thou therefore to thy place.

20 Ou pa gen lontan depi ou rive. Poukisa jòdi a pou m' fè ou ap mache nan bwa tankou vakabon ansanm avèk nou? Mwen pa menm konnen kote mwen prale. Tounen tounen ou ansanm ak tout moun menm peyi avè ou yo. Mwen mande Seyè a pou l' aji byen avè ou, pou l' pa janm lage ou!

Thou camest yesterday, and should I cause thee to wander to day and go with vs? I will goe whither I can: therefore returne thou and cary againe thy brethren: mercy and trueth be with thee.

21 Men Itayi reponn li: -Monwa, mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a ak devan ou, se ou menm m'ap sèvi. Kote ou prale mwen pral avè ou, menm si mwen gen pou m' mouri.

And Ittai answered the King, and sayde, As the Lord liueth, and as my lord the King liueth, in what place my lord the King shalbe, whether in death or life, euen there surely will thy seruant bee.

22 Lè sa a, David di li: -Bon. Ou mèt pran devan nou. Se konsa Itayi, moun lavil Gat la, ale avèk wa a, li menm, tout moun li yo ansanm ak tout fanmi yo.

Then Dauid sayd to Ittai, Come, and go forward. And Ittai the Gittite went, and all his men, and all the children that were with him.

23 Tout moun nan peyi a t'ap rele byen fò lè yo wè David ak moun pa l' yo ap pase ale. David janbe lòt bò ravin Sedwon an ansanm ak tout moun li yo. Yo pran wout ki mennen nan dezè a.

And all the countrey wept with a loude voyce, and all the people went forward, but the King passed ouer the brooke Kidron: and all the people went ouer toward the way of ye wildernes.

24 Zadòk, prèt la, te la tou ansanm ak tout moun fanmi Levi yo ki t'ap pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a. Yo depoze Bwat Kontra a atè. Yo pa leve l' jouk tout rès moun yo fin soti kite lavil la. Abyata, prèt la, te la tou.

And lo, Zadok also was there, and all the Leuites with him, bearing the Arke of the couenant of God: and they set downe the Arke of God, and Abiathar went vp vntill the people were all come out of the citie.

25 Apre sa, wa a di Zadòk konsa: -Pote Bwat Kontra a tounen nan lavil la. Si Seyè a pran plezi nan mwen, yon jou l'a kite m' tounen pou m' wè bwat la ansanm ak kote l' rete a.

Then the King said vnto Zadok, Carie the Arke of God againe into the citie: if I shall finde fauour in the eyes of the Lord, he will bring me againe, and shewe me both it, and the Tabernacle thereof.

26 Men, si li pa kontan avè m' anko, enben, lè sa a, l'a fè sa li vle avè m'.

But if he thus say, I haue no delite in thee, behold, here am I, let him doe to me as seemeth good in his eyes.

27 Epi wa a di Zadòk ankò: -Gade! Ou menm ak Abyata, tounen tounen nou lavil Jerizalèm ansanm ak Akimaz, pitit gason ou lan, ak Jonatan, pitit gason Abyata a.

The King sayde againe vnto Zadok the Priest, Art not thou a Seer? returne into the citie in peace, and your two sonnes with you: to wit, Ahimaaz thy sonne, and Ionathan the sonne of Abiathar.

28 Mwen menm, mwen pral tann nou bò larivyè a nan dezè a jouk n'a voye nouvèl ban mwen.

Behold, I wil tarie in the fieldes of the wildernesse, vntill there come some worde from you to be tolde me.

29 Se konsa Zadòk ak Abyata pote Bwat Kontra a tounen lavil Jerizalèm, yo rete la.

Zadok therefore and Abiathar caried the Arke of God againe to Ierusalem, and they taried there.

30 David menm moute sou mòn Pye Oliv yo. Li t'ap kriye, li te pye atè, tèt li te kouvri, paske li te nan gwo lapenn. Tout moun ki t'ap mache deyè l' yo te gen tèt yo kouvri tou, yo t'ap kriye.

And Dauid went vp the mount of oliues and wept as he went vp, and had his head couered, and went barefooted: and al the people that was with him, had euery man his head couered, and as they went vp, they wept.

31 Lè David vin konnen Achitofèl te pran pozisyon ak Absalon nan konplo a, li lapriyè, li di: -Tanpri, Seyè! Fè konsèy Achitofèl yo pase pou pawòl moun fou!

Then one tolde Dauid, saying, Ahithophel is one of them that haue cospired with Absalom: and Dauid sayde, O Lord, I pray thee, turne the counsell of Ahithophel into foolishnesse.

32 Lè David rive sou tèt ti mòn lan, kote yo konn fè sèvis pou Bondye a, Ouchayi, moun peyi Ak la, vin kontre l', rad sou li dechire, tèt li kouvri ak pousyè tè.

Then Dauid came to the toppe of the mount where he worshipped God: and beholde, Hushai the Archite came against him with his coate torne, and hauing earth vpon his head.

33 David di l' konsa: -Ou p'ap ka fè anyen pou mwen si ou vin avè m'.

Vnto whom Dauid sayd, If thou goe with me, thou shalt be a burthen vnto me.

34 Men, ou ka ede m' anpil si ou tounen lavil Jerizalèm. W'a di Absalon ou pral sèvi l' koulye a menm jan ou te sèvi papa l' nan tan lontan. Lè sa a, w'a ede m' pare tout move kou Achitofèl va gen lide pote m'.

But if thou returne to the citie, and say vnto Absalom, I wil be thy seruant, O King, (as I haue bene in time past thy fathers seruant, so will I now be thy seruant) then thou mayest bring me the counsell of Ahithophel to nought.

35 Zadòk ak Abyata, de prèt yo, va la tou. W'a di yo tou sa w'a tande y'ap di nan palè a.

And hast thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the Priests? therefore what so euer thou shalt heare out of the Kings house, thou shalt shew to Zadok and Abiathar the Priests.

36 Yo gen Akimaz ak Jonatan, pitit gason yo, ak yo. W'a voye yo vin di m' dènye sa w'a tande nan palè a.

Beholde, there are with them their two sonnes: Ahimaaz Zadoks sonne, and Ionathan Abiathars sonne: by them also shall ye send me euery thing that ye can heare.

37 Se konsa, Ouchayi, bon zanmi David la, tounen lavil Jerizalèm. Li antre nan lavil la an menm tan ak Absalon.

So Hushai Dauids friend went into the citie: and Absalom came into Ierusalem.
