2 Samyèl 21
1 Sou rèy wa David, vin gen yon gwo grangou pandan twazan yonn apre lòt. Lè sa a, David al mande Seyè a sa k'ap pase. Seyè a reponn li: -Se krim Sayil ak fanmi l' yo te fè ki lakòz grangou sa a, paske yo te sasinen moun lavil Gabawon yo.
Then there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David enquired of Yhwh. And Yhwh answered, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites.
2 Moun lavil Gabawon yo pa t' fanmi moun Izrayèl yo. Se yon ti rès nan moun peyi Amori moun Izrayèl yo te pran angajman yo t'ap toujou pwoteje. Men, Sayil te sitèlman cho pou defann enterè moun fanmi Izrayèl ak fanmi Jida yo, li te soti pou l' te detwi yo.
And the king called the Gibeonites, and said unto them; (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn unto them: and Saul sought to slay them in his zeal to the children of Israel and Judah.)
3 Se konsa David voye chache yo, li mande yo: -Kisa m' ka fè pou nou? Ki jan pou m' repare tou sa nou sibi pou nou ka rale benediksyon sou pèp Seyè a?
Wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? and wherewith shall I make the atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of Yhwh?
4 Yo reponn li: -Sa nou gen pou n' regle ak Sayil ansanm ak rès fanmi li an, se pa yon keksyon lò ak ajan, ni nou pa ta renmen touye pesonn nan peyi Izrayèl. David mande yo: -Manyè di m' sa nou vle m' fè pou nou.
And the Gibeonites said unto him, We will have no silver nor gold of Saul, nor of his house; neither for us shalt thou kill any man in Israel. And he said, What ye shall say, that will I do for you.
5 Yo reponn li: -Sayil te soti pou disparèt nou. Li te fè lide pou l' te touye nou nèt pou l' pa kite yonn nan nou vivan nan tout peyi Izrayèl la.
And they answered the king, The man that consumed us, and that devised against us that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the coasts of Israel,
6 Enben, renmèt nou sèt gason nan fanmi li an pou nou ka pann yo devan Seyè a nan lavil Gabawon, lavil Sayil la menm, nonm Seyè a te chwazi pou wa a. David reponn yo: -M'ap ban nou yo.
Let seven men of his sons be delivered unto us, and we will hang them up unto Yhwh in Gibeah of Saul, whom Yhwh did choose. And the king said, I will give them.
7 David pa ba yo Mefibochèt, pitit Jonatan an, pitit pitit Sayil la, poutèt sèman li menm ak Jonatan, pitit Sayil la, yo te fè devan Bondye.
But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of Yhwh's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 Men, li pran Amoni ak Mefibochèt, de pitit gason Rispa, pitit Ayi a, te fè pou Sayil, ansanm ak senk pitit gason Merab, pitit Sayil la, te fè pou Adriyèl, pitit gason Bazilayi, moun lavil Meola a.
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bare unto Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Michal the daughter of Saul, whom she brought up for Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite:
9 Li lage yo nan men moun Gabawon yo ki pann yo sou yon ti mòn devan Seyè a. Yo tou lesèt mouri ansanm. Lè sa a, se te fen sezon prentan, yo te fèk konmanse rekòt lòj la.
And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in the hill before Yhwh: and they fell all seven together, and were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, in the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Apre sa, Rispa, pitit Ayi a, pran yon rad sak, li vlope kò l' ladan l', li al chita sou wòch kote kadav yo te ye a. Li rete la depi nan konmansman rekòt la jouk sezon lapli a rive. Lajounen li t'ap chase zwazo ki te vle vin poze sou kadav yo. Lannwit li t'ap kouri dèyè bèt nan bwa ki te vle vin devore yo.
And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her upon the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water dropped upon them out of heaven, and suffered neither the birds of the air to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
11 Y' al rapòte bay David sa Rispa, yonn nan fanm kay Sayil yo, t'ap fè a.
And it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12 David al pran zosman Sayil ansanm ak zosman Jonatan nan men moun lavil Jabès yo nan peyi Galarad. (Moun sa yo te al vòlò kadav Sayil ak Jonatan sou plas piblik lavil Bèt-Chean kote moun Filisti yo te pann yo lè yo te fin touye Sayil sou mòn Gilboa a.)
And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh–gilead, which had stolen them from the street of Beth–shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, when the Philistines had slain Saul in Gilboa:
13 David pran zosman Sayil ansanm ak zosman Jonatan yo, li ranmase zosman sèt mesye yo te pann yo tou.
And he brought up from thence the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son; and they gathered the bones of them that were hanged.
14 Lèfini, yo antere yo ansanm ak zosman Sayil ak zosman Jonatan yo nan tonm Kich, papa Sayil la, lavil Zela nan pòsyon peyi ki pou branch fanmi Benjamen yo. Yo fè tou sa wa a te bay lòd fè a. Apre sa, Bondye tande lapriyè yo pou peyi a.
And the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son buried they in the country of Benjamin in Zelah, in the sepulchre of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God was intreated for the land.
15 Lagè pete ankò ant moun Filisti yo ak moun peyi Izrayèl yo. David desann ak sòlda li yo, li al goumen ak moun Filisti yo. Pandan y'ap goumen konsa, David santi l' bouke.
Moreover the Philistines had yet war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines: and David waxed faint.
16 Yon potorik gason bèl wotè yo te rele Ichbibenòb, moun laras Arafa yo, fè lide pou l' touye David. Li te gen yon frenn an kwiv ki te peze sèt liv edmi konsa ak yon nepe tou nèf mare nan ren li.
And Ishbi–benob, which was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with a new sword, thought to have slain David.
17 Men, Abichayi, pitit gason Sewouja a, vin pote wa a sekou. Li atake moun Filisti a, li touye l'. Lè sa a, moun David yo fè wa a pwomèt pou li pa janm vin nan lagè avè yo ankò. Yo di l': -Ou se espwa pèp Izrayèl la. Nou pa vle pèdi ou.
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah succoured him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David sware unto him, saying, Thou shalt go no more out with us to battle, that thou quench not the light of Israel.
18 Apre sa, te gen yon lòt batay ankò avè moun Filisti yo lavil Gòb. Lè sa a, Sibekayi, moun lavil Ousa, touye Saf, yon lòt potorik gason nan ras moun Arafa yo.
And it came to pass after this, that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Saph, which was of the sons of the giant.
19 Pandan yon lòt batay avèk moun Filisti yo ankò nan menm lavil Gòb la, Elanan, pitit gason Jari, moun lavil Betleyèm, touye Golyat, yon moun lavil Gat. Frenn Golyat la te gen yon manch menm gwosè ak yon gwo manch pilon.
And there was again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaare–oregim, a Beth–lehemite, slew the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
20 vin gen yon lòt batay ankò lavil Gat. Lè sa a, te gen yon sòlda bèl wotè ki te gen sis dwèt nan chak men, sis zòtèy nan chak pye. Se te yonn nan ras moun Arafa yo.
And there was yet a battle in Gath, where was a man of great stature, that had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.
21 Li t'ap pase moun pèp Izrayèl yo nan betiz. Jonatan, pitit gason Chimeya, frè David la, touye l'.
And when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea the brother of David slew him.
22 Kat sòlda peyi Filisti sa yo te moun bèl wotè, potorik gason, nan ras moun Arafa yo lavil Gat. David ak moun pa li yo touye yo.
These four were born to the giant in Gath, and fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
