1 Wa 21
1 Alò, li te vin rive apre bagay sa yo ke Naboth, Jizreyelit la te gen yon chan rezen ki te nan Jizréel akote palè Achab, wa Samarie a.
After these things Naboth the Izreelite had a vineyarde in Izreel, hard by the palace of Ahab King of Samaria.
2 Achab te pale a Naboth e te di: “Ban mwen chan rezen ou an, pou m ka genyen li kòm yon jaden legim, paske li toupre lakay mwen e mwen va ba ou yon pi bon chan rezen pase l pou ranplase li. Si ou pito, mwen va ba ou pri li an lajan.”
And Ahab spake vnto Naboth, saying, Giue me thy vineyarde, that I may make mee a garden of herbes thereof, because it is neere by mine house: and I will giue thee for it a better vineyarde then it is: or if it please thee, I will giue thee the worth of it in money.
3 Men Naboth te di a Achab: “Ke SENYÈ a ta anpeche m ba ou eritaj zansèt mwen yo.”
And Naboth said to Ahab, The Lord keepe me from giuing the inheritance of my father vnto thee.
4 Konsa, Achab te rive lakay li pa kontan e byen vekse akoz pawòl ke Naboth, Jizreyelit la, te pale a li a, paske li te di: “Mwen p ap bay ou eritaj zansèt mwen yo.” Li te kouche sou kabann li, te vire figi li akote e li pa t manje manje.
Then Ahab came into his house heauie and in displeasure, because of the word which Naboth the Izreelite had spoken vnto him. for hee had sayde, I will not giue thee the inheritance of my fathers, and he lay vpon his bed, and turned his face and would eate no bread.
5 Men Jézabel, madanm li, te vin kote li e te di li: “Kijan lespri ou tèlman ba ke ou pa manje manje a?”
Then Iezebel his wife came to him and said vnto him, Why is thy spirit so sad that thou eatest no bread?
6 Konsa, li te di li: “Akoz mwen te pale Naboth, Jizreyelit la, e mwen te di li: ‘Ban mwen chan rezen ou an pou lajan; oswa, si li fè ou kontan, mwen va ba ou yon chan rezen pou ranplase li.’ Men li te di: ‘Mwen p ap ba ou chan rezen mwen an.’”
And he said vnto her, Because I spake vnto Naboth the Izreelite, and sayd vnto him, Giue me thy vineyard for money, or if it please thee, I will giue thee another vineyard for it: but he answered, I wil not giue thee my vineyarde.
7 Jézabel, madanm li te di li: “Èske koulye a se ou ki renye sou Israël? Leve, manje pen e kite kè ou kontan. Mwen va ba ou chan rezen a Naboth, Jizreyelit la.”
Then Iezebel his wife sayde vnto him, Doest thou nowe gouerne the kingdome of Israel? vp, eate bread, and be of good cheere, I will giue thee the vineyard of Naboth the Izreelite.
8 Konsa, li te ekri lèt nan non Achab e te sele yo avèk so pa li pou te voye yo bay ansyen yo avèk prens ki te rete avèk Naboth nan vil pa li a.
So she wrote letters in Ahabs name, and sealed them with his seale, and sent the letters vnto the Elders, and to the nobles that were in his citie dwelling with Naboth.
9 Alò, nan lèt sa yo li te ekri e te di: “Pwoklame yon jèn e fè Naboth chita sou tèt a pèp la.
And shee wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaime a fast, and set Naboth among the chiefe of the people,
10 Fè chita dèzòm sanzave devan li pou fè temwayaj kont li pou di: ‘Ou te modi Bondye avèk wa a.’ Konsa, pran li deyò e lapide li jiskaske li mouri.”
And set two wicked men before him, and let them witnesse against him, saying, Thou diddest blaspheme God and the King: then cary him out, and stone him that he may dye.
11 Konsa, mesye lavil li yo, ansyen avèk prens ki te rete la yo, te fè jan Jézabel te voye di yo a, jis jan ke li te ekri nan lèt ke li te voye yo.
And the men of his citie, euen the Elders and gouernours, which dwelt in his citie, did as Iezebel had sent vnto them: as it was written in the letters, which she had sent vnto them.
12 Yo te pwoklame yon jèn e te fè Naboth chita sou tèt a pèp la.
They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth among the chiefe of the people,
13 Epi dèzòm sanzave te antre ladann e te chita devan li. Epi de mesye sanzave yo te fè temwayaj kont li, menm kont Naboth, devan pèp la, e yo te di: “Naboth te modi Bondye avèk wa a.” Konsa, yo te pran l mennen deyò lavil la e yo te lapide l jiska lanmò avèk kout wòch.
And there came two wicked men, and sate before him: and the wicked men witnessed against Naboth in the presence of the people saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the King. Then they caried him away out of the citie, and stoned him with stones, that he dyed.
14 Epi yo te voye kote Jézabel e te di: “Naboth te lapide e fin mouri.”
Then they sent to Iezebel, saying, Naboth is stoned and is dead.
15 Lè Jézabel te tande ke Naboth te lapide e te mouri, Jézabel te di a Achab: “Leve, pran posesyon a chan rezen Naboth la, Jizreyelit la, ke li te refize ba ou pou lajan an; paske Naboth pa vivan, men li mouri.”
And when Iezebel heard that Naboth was stoned and was dead, Iezebel sayd to Ahab, Vp, and take possession of the vineyarde of Naboth the Izreelite, which he refused to giue thee for money: for Naboth is not aliue, but is dead.
16 Lè Achab te tande ke Naboth te mouri, Achab te leve desann kote chan rezen a Naboth la, Jizreyelit la, pou l te pran posesyon li.
And when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, he rose to go downe to the vineyard of Naboth the Izreelite, to take possession of it.
17 Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote Élie, Tichbit la, e te di:
And the word of the Lord came vnto Eliiah the Tishbite, saying,
18 “Leve, ale desann rankontre Achab, wa Israël la, ki Samarie. Gade byen, li nan chan rezen Naboth kote li te desann pou pran posesyon li.
Arise, goe downe to meete Ahab King of Israel, which is in Samaria. loe, he is in the vineyarde of Naboth, whither he is gone downe to take possession of it.
19 Ou va pale li e di: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: Èske ou te touye e anplis pran posesyon?’” Epi ou va pale avèk li pou di: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Nan plas kote chen yo te niche san Naboth la, chen yo va niche san pa ou menm.’”
Therefore shalt thou say vnto him, Thus sayth the Lord, Hast thou killed, and also gotten possession? And thou shalt speake vnto him, saying, Thus sayth the Lord, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth, shall dogs licke euen thy blood also.
20 Achab te di a Élie: “Èske ou vin jwenn mwen, O lènmi mwen?” Epi li te reponn: “Mwen te jwenn ou akoz ou te vann tèt ou pou fè mechanste nan zye SENYÈ a.
And Ahab sayd to Eliiah, Hast thou found mee, O mine enemie? And he answered, I haue found thee: for thou hast solde thy selfe to worke wickednes in the sight of the Lord.
21 Gade byen, Mwen va mennen mal sou ou, Mwen va bale fè ou disparèt e Mwen va koupe retire sou Achab tout gason, ni esklav, ni lib nan tout Israël.
Beholde, I will bring euill vpon thee, and wil take away thy posteritie, and wil cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, as well him that is shut vp, as him that is left in Israel,
22 Mwen va fè lakay ou tankou lakay Jéroboam, fis a Nebath la ak tankou lakay Baescha, fis Achija a, akoz pwovokasyon avèk sila li te pwovoke M a lakòlè a, e akoz ou te fè Israël peche.”
And I wil make thine house like the house of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the sonne of Ahiiah, for the prouocation wherewith thou hast prouoked, and made Israel to sinne.
23 De Jézabel osi SENYÈ a te pale, e te di: “Chen yo va manje Jézabel nan distri Jizréel la.
And also of Iezebel spake the Lord, saying, The dogs shall eate Iezebel, by the wall of Izreel.
24 Sila ki apatyen a Achab, ki mouri nan vil la, chen va manje yo e sila ki mouri nan chan an, zwazo syèl yo va manje yo.”
The dogs shall eate him of Ahabs stocke, that dyeth in the citie: and him that dyeth in the fieldes, shall the foules of the ayre eate.
25 Anverite, pa t gen moun tankou Achab ki te vann tèt li pou fè mal devan SENYÈ a, akoz madanm li, Jézabel te chofe li.
(But there was none like Ahab, who did fell him selfe, to worke wickednesse in the sight of the Lord: whom Iezebel his wife prouoked.
26 Li te aji byen abominab nan swiv zidòl li yo, selon tout sa ke Amoreyen yo te fè, ke SENYÈ a te mete deyò devan fis Israël yo.
For he did exceeding abominably in following idoles, according to all that the Amorites did, whom the Lord cast out before the children of Israel.)
27 Li te vin rive ke lè Achab te tande pawòl sa yo, li te chire rad li e li te mete twal sak sou li pou te fè jèn. Li te kouche nan twal sak e li te vin mache avèk chagren nèt.
Nowe when Ahab heard those wordes, he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth vpon him and fasted, and lay in sackecloth and went softely.
28 Alò, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Élie, Tichbit la, e te di:
And the worde of the Lord came to Eliiah the Tishbite, saying,
29 “Èske ou wè kijan Achab te vin imilye li devan Mwen? Akoz li te imilye li devan mwen, Mwen p ap mennen mal la nan jou li yo; men Mwen va mennen mal la sou lakay li nan jou a fis li yo.”
Seest thou how Ahab is humbled before me? because he submitteth himselfe before me, I will not bring that euill in his dayes, but in his sonnes dayes wil I bring euill vpon his house.
