1 Samyèl 13
1 Saül te gen trant ane lè l te kòmanse renye, e li te renye pandan karann-de ane sou Israël.
Saul nowe had beene King one yeere, and he reigned two yeeres ouer Israel.
2 Alò, Saül te chwazi pou li menm twa mil mesye an Israël. Pami sila yo, de-mil te avèk Saül nan Micmasch ak nan peyi ti mòn Béthel la, pandan mil te avèk Jonathan nan Guibea pou Benjamin an. Men li te voye ale tout lòt moun yo, yo chak nan pwòp tant pa yo.
Then Saul chose him three thousand of Israel: and two thousande were with Saul in Michmash, and in mount Beth-el, and a thousande were with Ionathan in Gibeah of Beniamin: and the rest of the people he sent euery one to his tent.
3 Jonathan te frape post militè a Filisten ki te nan Guéba yo e Filisten yo te tande Koze sa a. Alò, Saül te soufle twonpèt la atravè tout peyi a, e li te di: “Kite Ebre yo tande.”
And Ionathan smote the garison of the Philistims, that was in the hill: and it came to the Philistims eares: and Saul blewe the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Heare, O yee Ebrewes.
4 Tout Israël te tande nouvèl ke Saül te frape post a Filisten yo, e osi ke Israël te vin rayisab a Filisten yo. Konsa pèp la te resevwa lòd pou rasanble Guilgal.
And al Israel heard say, Saul hath destroied a garison of the Philistims: wherefore Israel was had in abomination with the Philistims: and the people gathered together after Saul to Gilgal.
5 Filisten yo te rasanble pou goumen avèk Israël; trant-mil cha avèk si-mil chevalye ak kantite moun ki te tankou sab ki bò lanmè. Anpil konsa, e yo te vin monte pou te fè kan nan Micmasch, nan lès a Beth-Aven.
The Philistims also gathered themselues together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand charets, and sixe thousande horsemen: for the people was like the sand which is by the seas side in multitude, and came vp, and pitched in Michmash Eastward from Beth-auen.
6 Lè mesye Israël yo te vin wè ke yo te kwense (paske moun yo te vini sou yo anpil); alò, pèp la te kache kò yo nan gwòt yo, nan raje a, nan falèz yo, nan chanm anba tè yo ak nan sitèn yo.
And when the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait (for the people were in distresse) the people hid themselues in caues, and in holdes, and in rockes, and in towres, and in pittes.
7 Anplis, kèk nan Ebre yo te travèse Jourdain an pou antre nan peyi Gad avèk Galaad. Men pou Saül, li te toujou Guilgal, e tout pèp la te swiv li avèk kò yo tou ap tranble.
And some of the Ebrewes went ouer Iorden vnto the lande of Gad and Gilead: and Saul was yet in Gilgal, and al the people for feare followed him.
8 Alò li te tann pandan sèt jou, selon tan fikse pa Samuel la; men Samuel pa t vini Guilgal, e pèp la t ap gaye kite li.
And he taried seuen daies, according vnto the time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal, therefore the people were scattered from him.
9 Konsa, Saül te di: “Mennen ban mwen ofrann brile avèk ofrann lapè.” Epi li te ofri ofrann brile yo.
And Saul sayde, Bring a burnt offering to me and peace offrings: and he offered a burnt offering.
10 Lè li te fin ofri ofrann brile yo, men vwala, Samuel te vini. Epi Saül te parèt deyò pou rankontre li e salye li.
And assoone as hee had made an ende of offering the burnt offering, beholde, Samuel came: and Saul went foorth to meete him, to salute him.
11 Men Samuel te di: “Kisa ou te fè?” Epi Saül te di: “Akoz mwen te wè ke pèp la t ap gaye kite m, ke ou pa t vini nan jou apwente a, e ke Filisten yo t ap rasanble nan Micmasch,
And Samuel saide, What hast thou done? Then Saul saide, Because I sawe that the people was scattred from me, and that thou camest not within the daies appoynted, and that the Philistims gathered themselues together to Michmash,
12 pou sa, mwen te di: ‘Alò Filisten yo va vin desann kont mwen Guilgal, epi mwen poko mande favè SENYÈ a.’ Pou sa, mwen te fòse mwen menm pou te ofri ofrann brile yo.”
Therefore said I, The Philistims will come downe nowe vpon me to Gilgal, and I haue not made supplication vnto the Lord. I was bolde therefore and offred a burnt offring.
13 Samuel te di a Saül: “Ou te aji nan foli. Ou pa t kenbe kòmandman ke SENYÈ a te kòmande ou a. Paske SENYÈ a t ap vin etabli wayòm ou a sou Israël jis pou tout tan.
And Samuel saide to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandement of the Lord thy God, which he commanded thee: for the Lord had nowe stablished thy kingdome vpon Israel for euer.
14 Men koulye a, wayòm ou an p ap dire. SENYÈ a te chache pou kont Li yon nonm selon pwòp kè li e SENYÈ a te chwazi li kòm chèf sou pèp Li a, akoz ou pa t kenbe sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande ou a.”
But nowe thy kingdom shall not continue: the Lord hath sought him a man after his owne heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be gouernour ouer his people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord had commanded thee.
15 Epi Samuel te leve monte soti Guilgal pou rive Guibea nan Benjamin. Saül te konte moun ki te prezan avè l yo, yo te anviwon sis-san mesye.
And Samuel arose, and gate him vp from Gilgal in Gibeah of Beniamin: and Saul nombred the people that were found with him, about sixe hundreth men.
16 Alò Saül avèk fis li a, Jonathan avèk moun ki te prezan avèk yo te rete Guéba nan Benjamin pandan Filisten yo te fè kan Micmasch.
And Saul and Ionathan his sonne, and the people that were found with them, had their abiding in Gibeah of Beniamin: but the Philistims pitched in Michmash.
17 Epi ravajè yo te sòti nan kan Filisten yo an twa konpayi yo. Yon konpayi te vire nan sid vè Ophra vè peyi Schual.
And there came out of the hoste of the Philistims three bandes to destroie, one bande turned vnto the way of Ophrah vnto the lande of Shual,
18 Yon lòt konpayi te vire vè Beth-Horon, e yon lòt konpayi te vire vè lizyè ki kouri anwo vale a nan Tseboïm vè dezè a.
And another bad turned toward the way to Beth-horon, and the third band turned toward the way of the coast that looketh toward the valley of Zeboim, towarde the wildernesse.
19 Alò, nanpwen bòs fòjewon ki ta kab twouve nan tout peyi Israël la, paske Filisten yo te di: “Otreman Ebre yo va fè nepe yo oswa frenn yo.”
Then there was no smith founde throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistims sayde, Lest the Ebrewes make them swordes or speares.
20 Konsa, tout Israël te desann vè Filisten yo, yo chak pou file pwòp cha li, pikwa li, rach li, ak wou li.
Wherefore all ye Israelites went downe to the Philistims, to sharpen euery man his share, his mattocke, and his axe, and his weeding hooke.
21 Frè sèvis la te de tyè sik pou lam cha a, pou pikwa a, fochèt la, rach la e pou ranje wou yo.
Yet they had a file for the shares, and for the mattockes, and for the picke forkes, and for the axes, and for to sharpen the goades.
22 Konsa sa te rive ke nan jou batay la ke ni nepe, ni fwenn pa t twouve nan men a okenn nan moun ki te avèk Saül ak Jonathan yo. Men yo te twouve sèlman nan men Saül ak Jonathan.
So whe the day of battell was come, there was neither sworde nor speare founde in the handes of any of the people that were with Saul and with Ionathan: but onely with Saul and Ionathan his sonne was there founde.
23 Epi ekip post militè a Filisten yo te sòti rive nan pasaj Micmasch.
And the garison of the Philistims came out to the passage of Michmash.
