1 Samyèl 10
1 Konsa, Samuel te pran poban lwil la. Li te vide li sou tèt li. Li te bo li e te di: “Èske SENYÈ a pa t onksyone ou kòm prens sou eritaj Li a?
Then Samuel tooke a viole of oyle and powred it vpon his head, and kissed him, and saide, Hath not the Lord anointed thee to be gouernour ouer his inheritance?
2 Lè ou kite mwen jodi a, alò ou va jwenn de moun toupre tonm Rachel la, nan teritwa Benjamin nan Tseltsach. Yo va di ou: ‘Bourik ke ou t ap chache yo gen tan twouve. Alò, gade byen, papa ou pa twouble tèt li ankò sou bourik yo, men li twouble pou ou menm. L ap mande: “Kisa mwen va fè konsènan pitit mwen an?”’”
When thou shalt depart from me this day, thou shalt finde two men by Rahels sepulchre in the border of Beniamin, euen at Zelzah, and they will say vnto thee, The asses which thou wentest to seeke, are founde: and lo, thy father hath left the care of the asses, and soroweth for you, saying, What shall I doe for my sonne?
3 Alò, ou va ale pi lwen soti la, e ou va parèt jis nan chèn Thabor a. La, twa mesye k ap monte vè Bondye Béthel yo va rankontre avè w. Youn k ap pote twa jenn kabrit, yon lòt k ap pote twa moso pen, e yon lòt k ap pote yon po diven.
Then shalt thou go forth from thence and shalt come to the plaine of Tabor, and there shall meete thee three men going vp to God to Bethel: one carying three kiddes, and an other carying three loaues of bread, and another carying a bottle of wine:
4 Yo va di ou: “Bonjou”, e yo va ba ou de moso pen, ke ou va aksepte nan men yo.
And they will aske thee if all be well, and will giue thee the two loaues of bread, which thou shalt receiue of their handes.
5 Apre, ou va vini nan ti mòn Bondye a kote ganizon lame Filisten an ye a. Konsa, li va fèt ke depi ou vini la, kote vil la, ou va rankontre yon gwoup pwofèt k ap desann soti nan plas anwo a avèk gita, tanbouren, flit ak bandyo devan yo, e yo va pwofetize.
After that shalt thou come to the hill of God, where is the garisons of the Philistims: and when thou art come thither to the citie, thou shalt meete a companie of Prophets comming downe from the hie place with a viole, and a tymbrell, and a pipe, and an harpe before them, and they shall prophecie.
6 Epi Lespri Bondye a va vini sou ou avèk gwo fòs. Ou va pwofetize avèk yo, e ou va chanje pou vin yon lòt moun.
Then the Spirit of the Lord will come vpon thee, and thou shalt prophecie with them, and shalt be turned into another man.
7 Li va rive ke lè sign sa yo parèt sou ou, ou va fè pou kont ou sa ke okazyon an mande, paske Bondye avèk ou.
Therefore when these signes shall come vnto to thee, doe as occasion shall serue: for God is with thee.
8 “Epi ou va desann devan mwen Guilgal. Gade byen, m ap desann kote ou pou ofri ofrann brile avèk sakrifis lapè yo. Ou va tann sèt jou jiskaske mwen vin kote ou pou montre ou kisa ou ta dwe fè.”
And thou shalt goe downe before me to Gilgal: and I also will come downe vnto thee to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace. Tary for me seuen dayes, till I come to thee and shewe thee what thou shalt doe.
9 Alò, li te rive ke lè li te vire do li pou kite Samuel, Bondye te chanje kè li, epi tout sign sa yo te rive nan jou sa a.
And when he had turned his backe to goe from Samuel, God gaue him another heart: and all those tokens came to passe that same day.
10 Lè yo te rive la, nan kote ti mòn nan, yon gwoup pwofèt te rankontre li. Epi Lespri Bondye a te vini sou li avèk fòs, jiskaske li te pwofetize pami yo.
And when they came thither to the hill, beholde, the companie of Prophets meete him, and the Spirit of God came vpon him, and he prophecied among them.
11 Li vin rive ke lè tout moun ki te rekonèt li oparavan yo te wè ke koulye a li pwofetize avèk pwofèt yo, ke pèp la te di youn ak lòt: “Kisa ki rive a fis a Kish la? Èske Saül osi pami pwofèt yo?”
Therefore all the people that knewe him before, when they saw that he prophecied among the Prophets, saide eche to other, What is come vnto the sonne of Kish? is Saul also among the Prophets?
12 Yon mesye nan plas sa a te di: “Alò, kilès ki papa yo?” Konsa, sa te devni yon pwovèb: “Èske Saül, osi pami pwofèt yo?”
And one of the same place answered, and said, But who is their father? Therefore it was a prouerbe, Is Saul also among the Prophets?
13 Lè li te fin pwofetize li te vini nan plas anwo a.
And when he had made an ende of prophecying, he came to the hie place.
14 Alò, tonton Saül te di li avèk sèvitè li a: “Kote ou te ale?” Epi li te di: “Pou chache bourik yo. Men lè nou vin wè yo p ap kab twouve, nou te ale kote Samuel.”
And Sauls vncle saide vnto him, and to his seruant, Whither went ye? And he saide, To seeke the asses: and when we sawe that they were no where, we came to Samuel.
15 Tonton Saül te di li: “Souple, di m sa ke Samuel te di ou a.”
And Sauls vncle saide, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said vnto you.
16 Konsa Saül te di tonton li: “Li te pale nou byen klè ke bourik yo gen tan twouve.” Men li pa t pale li afè wayòm ke Samuel te pale a.
Then Saul saide to his vncle, He tolde vs plainely that the asses were founde: but concerning the kingdome whereof Samuel spake, tolde he him not.
17 Apre sa Samuel te konvoke pèp la ansanm vè SENYÈ a nan Mitspa.
And Samuel assembled the people vnto the Lord in Mizpeh,
18 Li te di a fis Israël yo: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Mwen te mennen Israël monte soti Égypte. Mwen te delivre nou soti nan men Ejipsyen yo, e nou te soti de men a tout wayòm ki t ap oprime nou yo.’
And he saide vnto the children of Israel, Thus saith ye Lord God of Israel, I haue brought Israel out of Egypt, and deliuered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the handes of all kingdomes that troubled you.
19 Men jodi a, nou te rejte Bondye nou an, ki delivre nou de tout malè nou yo ak detrès nou yo. Malgre sa nou vin di: ‘Non, men mete yon wa sou nou!’ Pou sa, prezante nou menm devan SENYÈ a pa tribi nou yo ak gran fanmi nou yo.”
But ye haue this day cast away your God, who onely deliuereth you out of all your aduersities and tribulations: and ye said vnto him, No, but appoint a King ouer vs. Nowe therefore stand ye before the Lord according to your tribes, and according to your thousands.
20 Konsa, Samuel te mennen tout tribi Israël yo vin toupre li, e tribi Benjamin an te pran pa tiraj osò.
And when Samuel had gathered together all the tribes of Israel, the tribe of Beniamin was taken.
21 Alò, li te mennen tribi Benjamin an vin toupre pa fanmi li yo, e yo te pran fanmi Matri a. Konsa, Saül, fis a Kish la te vin pran. Men lè yo vin chache li, yo pa t kab twouve l.
Afterwarde he assembled the tribe of Beniamin according to their families, and the familie of Matri was taken. So Saul the sonne of Kish was taken, and when they sought him, he coulde not be found.
22 Pou sa, yo vin mande plis a SENYÈ a: “Èske nonm nan gen tan rive isit la deja?” Pou sa, Bondye te di: “Gade byen, l ap kache kò li kote pwovizyon yo.”
Therefore they asked the Lord againe, if that man should yet come thither. And the Lord answered, Beholde, he hath hid himselfe among the stuffe.
23 Konsa yo te kouri pran li soti la, e lè li te kanpe pami pèp la, li te pi wo pase tout lòt moun nan pèp la soti nan zepòl li.
And they ranne, and brought him thence: and when he stoode among the people, he was hier then any of the people from the shoulders vpwarde.
24 Samuel te di a tout pèp la: “Èske nou wè sila ke SENYÈ a te chwazi a? Anverite, nanpwen lòt moun ki tankou li pami tout pèp la.” “Konsa, tout pèp la te rele fò. Yo te di: “Viv Wa a!”
And Samuel saide to all the people, See ye not him, whom the Lord hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? and all the people shouted and saide, God saue the King.
25 Alò, Samuel te pale pèp la règleman a wayòm nan. Li te ekri yo nan liv la, e li te plase li devan SENYÈ a. Konsa, Samuel te voye tout pèp la ale, yo chak nan pwòp kay pa yo.
Then Samuel tolde the people the duetie of the kingdome, and wrote it in a booke, and laied it vp before the Lord, and Samuel sent all the people away euery man to his house.
26 Anplis Saül te ale lakay li Guibea. Epi mesye vanyan yo avèk kè ki te touche pa Bondye te ale avèk li.
Saul also went home to Gibeah, and there followed him a bande of men, whose heart God had touched,
27 Men sèten sanzave ki te di: “Kijan mesye sila a kapab delivre nou?” Yo te meprize li e pa t pote okenn kado pou li. Men li te rete an silans.
But the wicked men saide, Howe shall hee saue vs? So they despised him, and brought him no presents: but he held his tongue.
