1 Istwa 12
1 Alò, sila yo se sila ki te vin kote David Tsiklag yo, lè li te toujou jennen akoz Saül, fis a Kish la. Yo te pami mesye pwisan ki te ede nan gè yo.
Now these are those who came to David to Ziklag, while he was still kept from the presence of Saul the son of Kish; and they were among the mighty men, his helpers in war.
2 Yo te pote banza, te voye wòch avèk fistibal ni sou men dwat, ni sou men goch, e tire flèch yo ak banza a. Se te fanmi a Saul, soti nan tribi Benjamin an.
They were armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in slinging stones and in shooting arrows from the bow: they were of Saul's brothers of Benjamin.
3 Chèf la te Achiézer, swivi pa Joas, fis a Schemaa a, Gibeonit lan; Jeziel ak Péleth, fis a Azmaveth yo; epi Beraca; Jéhu, Anatotit la;
The chief was Ahiezer; then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite, and Jeziel, and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth, and Beracah, and Jehu the Anathothite,
4 Jischmaeia, Gabaonit lan, yon mesye pwisan pami trant yo, e tèt a trant yo, epi Jérémie; Jachaziel; Jochannan'; Jozabad, Guedérait la;

8 Soti nan Gadit yo, te antre rive kote David nan fò dezè a, mesye pwisan avèk anpil kouraj ki te fè antrenman pou fè lagè, ki te konn manyen boukliye avèk lans, avèk figi yo tankou figi a lyon, e yo vit tankou antilòp nan mòn.
Of the Gadites there separated themselves to David to the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, that could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the roes on the mountains;
9 Ézer, chèf la, Abdias, dezyèm nan, Éliab, twazyèm nan,
Ezer the chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,
10 Mischmanna, katriyèm nan, Jérémie, senkyèm nan,

11 Attaï, sizyèm nan, Éliel, setyèm nan,
Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,
12 Jochanan, uityèm nan, Elzabad, nevyèm nan,
Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,
13 Jérémie, dizyèm nan, Macbannaï, onzyèm nan.
Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.
14 Sila yo se fis a Gad ki te kapitèn lame a; sila ki te pi piti a te egal a yon santèn moun e pifò a, a yon milye.
These of the sons of Gad were captains of the army: he who was least was equal to one hundred, and the greatest to one thousand.
15 Sila yo se sila ki te travèse Jourdain an nan premye mwa lè tout bò rivyè li yo t ap debòde yo. Yo te chase fè pran flit tout sila ki te nan vale yo, nan lès ak nan lwès.
These are those who went over the Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all them of the valleys, both toward the east, and toward the west.
16 Konsa, kèk nan fis a Benjamin yo te vin rive nan fò a David la.
There came of the people of Benjamin and Judah to the stronghold to David.
17 David te sòti pou rankontre yo. Li te di yo: “Si se nan lapè nou vin kote mwen, pou ede m, kè m va reyini ansanm avèk nou. Men si se pou trayi mwen a advèsè mwen yo, akoz nanpwen mal nan men m, ke Bondye a zansèt nou yo gade sou sa pou deside.”
David went out to meet them, and answered them, "If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart shall be knit to you; but if you have come to betray me to my adversaries, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers look thereon, and rebuke it."
18 Alò, Lespri a te vini sou Amasaï, ki te chèf a trant yo, “Nou se pa w, O David, Epi avèk ou, O fis a Jesse a! Lapè, lapè a ou menm Epi lapè avèk sila ki ede ou! Anverite, Bondye ou a ap ede ou!” Konsa David te resevwa yo e te fè yo kapitèn nan ekip la.
Then the Spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the Thirty, and he said, "We are yours, David, and on your side, you son of Jesse: peace, peace be to you, and peace be to your helpers; for your God helps you." Then David received them, and made them captains of the band.
19 Soti nan Manassé, osi, kèk moun te vin jwenn David lè li t ap prepare fè batay avèk Filisten yo kont Saül. Men yo pa t ede yo, paske chèf Filisten apre yo te konsilte ansanm, e te voye li ale. Yo te di: “Avèk pri a pwòp tèt nou, li kapab fè defo a mèt li, Saul.”
Of Manasseh also there fell away some to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle; but they did not help them; for the lords of the Philistines sent him away after consultation, saying, "He will fall away to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads."
20 Lè l te ale Tsiklag, men moun Manassé ki te parèt yo: Adnach, Jozabad, Jediaël, Micaël, Jozabad, Élihu ak Tsilthaï, chèf a dè milye nan Manassé yo.
As he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who were of Manasseh.
21 Yo te ede David kont bann piyajè yo, paske yo tout te mesye pwisan, plen ak kouraj e te kapitèn nan lame a.
They helped David against the band of rovers: for they were all mighty men of valor, and were captains in the army.
22 Paske jou apre jou, moun te vin kote David pou ede l, jiskaske te gen yon gwo lame tankou lame Bondye a.
For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like the army of God.
23 Alò sila yo se nonb nan divizyon ki te prepare pou fè lagè a, nonb ki te vin kote David Hébron pou vire wayòm Saul vè li menm, selon pawòl a SENYÈ a.
These are the numbers of the heads of those who were armed for war, who came to David to Hebron, to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of the LORD.
24 Fis a Juda ki te pote boukliye avèk lans yo te si-mil-ui-san, byen prepare pou fè lagè.
The people of Judah who bore shield and spear were six thousand and eight hundred, armed for war.
25 Nan fis a Siméon yo, mesye plen ak kouraj pou fè lagè yo, sèt-mil-san.
Of the people of Simeon, mighty men of valor for the war, seven thousand and one hundred.
26 Nan fis a Lévi yo, kat-mil-sis-san.
Of the descendants of Levi four thousand and six hundred.
27 Alò, Jehojada, prens lakay Aaron an e avèk li, te gen twa-mil-sèt-san,
Jehoiada was the leader of the household of Aaron; and with him were three thousand and seven hundred,
28 anplis, Tsadok, gèrye plen ak kouraj la e lakay papa l te gen venn-de kapitèn.
and Zadok, a young man mighty of valor, and of his father's house twenty-two captains.
29 Nan fis Benjamin yo, fanmi a Saül la, twa-mil, paske jis moman sa a, pifò nan yo te rete fidèl a lakay Saul.
Of the people of Benjamin, the brothers of Saul, three thousand: for hitherto the greatest part of them had kept their allegiance to the house of Saul.
30 Nan fis Éphraïm yo, ven-mil-ui-san mesye pwisan avèk anpil kouraj, byen koni lakay zansèt pa yo.
Of the people of Ephraim twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valor, famous men in their fathers' houses.
31 Nan mwatye tribi Manassé a, diz-ui-mil ki te enskri pa non pou vin fè David wa.
Of the half-tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, who were mentioned by name, to come and make David king.
32 Nan fis a Issacar yo, mesye ki te konprann tan yo, avèk konesans a sa ke Israël ta dwe fè, chèf pa yo te de-san; epi tout fanmi yo te sou kòmann pa yo.
Of the people of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their heads were two hundred; and all their brothers were at their commandment.
33 Nan Zabulon, te gen senkant-mil moun ki te parèt nan lame a ki te konn ranje kò yo nan fòmasyon batay avèk tout kalite zam lagè pou te ede David avèk kè ki pa t divize menm.
Of Zebulun, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array, with all kinds of instruments of war, fifty thousand, to help David and were not of double heart.
34 Nan Nephthali, te gen mil kapitèn e trant-sèt-mil ladann te gen boukliye avèk lans.
Of Naphtali one thousand captains, and with them with shield and spear thirty-seven thousand.
35 Nan Danit ki ta kab ranje nan fòmasyon batay yo, te gen venn-tui-mil-sis-san.
Of the Danites who could set the battle in array, twenty-eight thousand six hundred.
36 Nan Aser, te gen karant-mil ki te sòti nan lame a pou ranje yo nan fòmasyon batay la.
Of Asher, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array, forty thousand.
37 Soti lòtbò Jourdain an, pa Ribenit ak Gadit yo, avèk mwatye tribi Manassé a, te gen san-ven-mil avèk tout zam lagè pou batay la.
On the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and of the half-tribe of Manasseh, with all kinds of instruments of war for the battle, one hundred twenty thousand.
38 Tout sila yo, mesye lagè ki te konn ranje nan fòmasyon batay yo, te vini Hébron avèk yon sèl kè sensè pou fè David wa.
All these being men of war, who could order the battle array, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.
39 Yo te la pandan twa jou. Yo t ap manje ak bwè, paske fanmi pa yo te gen tan prepare pou yo.
They were there with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brothers had made preparation for them.
40 Anplis, sila ki te toupre yo, menm rive lwen tankou Issacar, Zabulon ak Nephthali, yo te pote manje sou bourik yo, chamo yo, milèt yo, avèk bèf yo, gran kantite a gato farin, gato fig etranje, anpil rezen, diven, lwil, bèf avèk mouton. Vrèman, te gen lajwa an Israël.
Moreover those who were near to them, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought bread on donkeys, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, food of meal, cakes of figs, and clusters of raisins, and wine, and oil, and cattle, and sheep in abundance: for there was joy in Israel.
