1 Samyèl 14
1 Alò jou a te rive ke Jonathan, fis a Saül la, te di a jennonm ki t ap pote zam li yo: “Vini, annou travèse vè anplasman post militè Filisten ki sou kote lòtbò a.” Men li pa t pale sa a papa l.
And the day comes that Jonathan son of Saul says to the young man carrying his weapons, “Come, and we pass over to the station of the Philistines, which [is] on the other side of this”; and he has not declared [it] to his father.
2 Saül te rete nan zòn andeyò Guibea anba pye grenad la nan Migron. Epi moun ki te avèk li yo te anviwon sis-san mesye.
And Saul is abiding at the extremity of Gibeah, under the pomegranate which [is] in Migron, and the people who [are] with him [are] about six hundred men,
3 Achija, fis a Achithub la, frè I-Kabod, fis a Phinées a, fis a Éli, sakrifikatè SENYÈ a nan Silo, te abiye avèk yon efòd. Epi pèp la pa t konnen ke Jonathan te ale.
and Ahiah, son of Ahitub, brother of Ichabod, son of Phinehas son of Eli priest of YHWH in Shiloh, [was] bearing an ephod; and the people did not know that Jonathan has gone.
4 Antre pasaj kote Jonathan te chache travèse pou rive nan anplasman post militè Filisten yo, te gen yon kote dan wòch byen file sou yon bò ak yon dan wòch byen file sou lòtbò a. Youn te rele Botsets e lòt la te rele Séné.
And between the passages where Jonathan sought to pass over to the station of the Philistines [is] the edge of a rock on one side, and the edge of a rock on the other side, and the name of one is Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
5 Youn nan dan wòch yo te leve nan kote nò anfas Micmasch e lòt la nan sid anfas Guéba.
One edge [is] fixed on the north in front of Michmash, and the one on the south in front of Gibeah.
6 Alò Jonathan te di a jennonm ki t ap pote zam li yo: “Vini pou nou travèse lòtbò vè anplasman militè a ensikonsi sila yo. Petèt, SENYÈ a va aji pou nou. Paske SENYÈ a pa anpeche delivre, menm si se anpil, menm si se kèk grenn.”
And Jonathan says to the young man carrying his weapons, “Come, and we pass over to the station of these uncircumcised; it may be YHWH works for us, for there is no restraint to YHWH to save by many or by few.”
7 Sila ki pote zam li yo te di: “Fè tout sa ki nan kè ou; vire ou menm e mwen la avèk ou selon volonte ou.”
And the bearer of his weapons says to him, “Do all that [is] in your heart; turn for yourself; behold, I [am] with you, as your own heart.”
8 Jonathan te di: “Gade byen, nou va travèse lòtbò vè mesye yo pou vin parèt a yo menm.
And Jonathan says, “Behold, we are passing over to the men, and are revealed to them;
9 Si yo di nou: ‘Tann jiskaske nou rive bò kote nou’, alò, nou va kanpe nan plas nou e pa monte kote yo.
if they thus say to us, Stand still until we have come to you, then we have stood in our place, and do not go up to them;
10 Men si yo di: ‘Vin monte kote nou’, alò nou va monte. Paske SENYÈ a te mete yo nan men nou; epi sa va sinyal pou nou.”
and if they thus say, Come up against us, then we have gone up, for YHWH has given them into our hand, and this [is] the sign to us.”
11 Lè yo toude te parèt nan anplasman militè Filisten yo, Filisten yo te di: “Gade byen, Ebre yo vin sòti nan tou a kote yo te kache kò yo.”
And both of them are revealed to the station of the Philistines, and the Philistines say, “Behold, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hid themselves.”
12 Epi mesye nan anplasman yo te rele Jonathan avèk gason ki pote zam li yo. Yo te di: “Monte kote nou pou nou di ou yon bagay.” Epi Jonathan te di a gason zam li yo: “Vin monte dèyè m, paskeSENYÈ a fin mete yo nan men Israël.”
And the men of the station answer Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons, and say, “Come up to us, and we cause you to know something.” And Jonathan says to the bearer of his weapons, “Come up after me, for YHWH has given them into the hand of Israel.”
13 Alò, Jonathan te rale monte ak men l ak pye li, avèk gason zam yo dèyè li. Konsa, yo te tonbe devan Jonathan e gason zam yo te touye kèk apre li.
And Jonathan goes up on his hands, and on his feet, and the bearer of his weapons after him; and they fall before Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons is putting [them] to death after him.
14 Premye masak sa ke Jonathan avèk gason zam yo te fè te anviwon ven òm soti nan mwatye distans ke yon cha ta fè lè l ap raboure fè yon pase nan yon tyè kawo tè.
And the first striking which Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons have struck is of about twenty men, in about half a furrow of a yoke of a field,
15 Epi nan kan an yo t ap tranble, anplis nan chan an, e pami tout pèp la. Menm gason anplasman militè yo te tranble. Ekip ravajè yo te tranble e latè te vin tranble jiskaske li te tranble anpil.
and there is a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people, the station and the destroyers have trembled—even they, and the earth shakes, and it becomes a trembling of God.
16 Gad Saül yo nan Guibea nan Benjamin te wè ke gran kantite fòs sòlda yo te kòmsi yo t ap fonn; epi yo te gaye pasi pala.
And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin see, and behold, the multitude has melted away, and it goes on, and is beaten down.
17 Saül te di a moun ki te avèk li yo: “Kontwole soti koulye a pou wè kilès ki kite nou.” Epi lè yo fin fè kontwòl, gade byen, Jonathan avèk gason potè zam li yo pa t la.
And Saul says to the people who [are] with him, “Now inspect and see; who has gone from us?” And they inspect, and behold, Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons are not.
18 Alò, Saül te di a Achija: “Mennen lach Bondye a isit la.” Paske lach Bondye a te nan tan sa a avèk fis Israël yo.
And Saul says to Ahiah, “Bring the Ark of God near”; for the Ark of God has been with the sons of Israel on that day.
19 Pandan Saül te pale avèk prèt la, zen nan kan Filisten yo te kontinye e te vin ogmante. Donk, Saül te di prèt la: “Retire men w!”
And it comes to pass, while Saul spoke to the priest, that the noise which [is] in the camp of the Philistines goes on, going on and becoming great, and Saul says to the priest, “Remove your hand.”
20 Epi Saül avèk tout pèp ki te avèk li a te rasanble pou te rive kote batay la. Epi vwala, zam a chak moun te vire kont moun parèy pa yo. Te vin gen yon trè gran konfizyon.
And Saul is called, and all the people who [are] with him, and they come to the battle, and behold, the sword of each has been against his neighbor—a very great destruction.
21 Alò, Ebre ki te avèk Filisten avan yo, ki te monte avèk yo toupatou nan kan an, menm yo menm te vire pou alinye avèk Izrayelit ki te avèk Saül ak Jonathan yo.
And the Hebrews [who] have been with the Philistines before the day prior, who had gone up with them into the camp, have turned around, even they, to be with Israel who [are] with Saul and Jonathan,
22 Lè tout mesye Israël yo ki te kache kò yo nan peyi ti mòn Ephraïm yo te tande ke Filisten yo te sove ale, menm yo menm anplis, te kouri dèyè yo toupre nan batay la.
and all the men of Israel, who are hiding themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, have heard that the Philistines have fled, and they pursue—even they—after them in battle.
23 Konsa SENYÈ a te delivre Israël nan jou sa a e batay la te gaye pi lwen Beth-Aven.
And YHWH saves Israel on that day, and the battle has passed over to Beth-Aven.
24 Alò mesye Israël yo te byen peze nan jou sa a, paske Saül te mete pèp la anba yon sèman, e te di: “Modi se mesye ki manje manje avan nwit lan, jiskaske mwen fè vanjans sou lènmi mwen yo.” Konsa, pa t gen nan pèp la ki te goute manje.
And the men of Israel have been distressed on that day, and Saul adjures the people, saying, “Cursed [is] the man who eats food until the evening, and I have been avenged of my enemies”; and none of the people have tasted food.
25 Tout pèp peyi a te antre nan forè a e te gen siwo myèl atè a.
And all [those of] the land have come into a forest, and there is honey on the face of the field;
26 Lè pèp la te antre forè a, men vwala, te gen yon flèv siwo myèl. Men pèsòn pa t rale men l rive nan bouch li, paske pèp la te pè sèman an.
and the people come into the forest, and behold, the honey dropped, and none is moving his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.
27 Men Jonathan pa t ankò tande lè papa l te mete pèp la anba sèman an. Pou sa, li te lonje baton ki te nan men l lan, li te fonse li nan gato myèl la, li te mete men l nan bouch li e zye li te vin limen.
And Jonathan has not heard of his father’s adjuring the people, and puts forth the end of the rod, which [is] in his hand, and dips it in the honeycomb, and brings back his hand to his mouth—and his eyes see!
28 Epi youn nan moun yo te di: “Papa ou te mete pèp la anba sèman avèk severite e li te di: ‘Modi se mesye ki manje manje jodi a.’” Epi pèp la te bouke.
And a man of the people answers and says, “Your father certainly adjured the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who eats food today; and the people are weary.”
29 Alò, Jonathan te di: “Papa m te twouble peyi a! Gade, koulye a kijan zye m vin limen akoz mwen te goute yon ti kras nan siwo sa a.
And Jonathan says, “My father has troubled the land; now see that my eyes have become bright because I tasted a little of this honey.
30 Konbyen anplis, si sèlman pèp la te manje avèk libète jodi a nan piyaj lènmi ke yo te twouve a! Paske koulye a masak pami Filisten yo pa gwo.”
How much more if the people had well eaten today of the spoil of its enemies which it has found, for now the striking has not been great among the Philistines.”
31 Yo te frape pami Filisten yo nan jou sa a soti Micmasch pou jis rive Ajalon. Epi pèp la te vin byen bouke.
And they strike on that day among the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon, and the people are very weary,
32 Pèp la te kouri avèk gwo anvi sou piyaj la. Yo te pran mouton yo avèk gwo bèf ak ti bèf yo, yo te touye yo atè a, e yo te manje yo avèk san an.
and the people make toward the spoil, and take sheep, and oxen, and sons of the herd, and slaughter on the earth, and the people eat with the blood.
33 Alò, yo te pale Saül e te di: “Gade byen, pèp la ap peche kont SENYÈ a pandan yo manje avèk san an.” Epi li te di: “Nou te aji kòm trèt; woule yon gwo wòch kote mwen jodi a.”
And they declare to Saul, saying, “Behold, the people are sinning against YHWH, to eat with the blood.” And he says, “You have dealt treacherously, roll a great stone to me today.”
34 Saül te di: “Gaye nou menm pami pèp la e di yo: ‘Nou chak mennen bèf nou ban mwen, oswa mouton nou e touye li isit la pou manje. Pa fè peche kont SENYÈ a avèk afè manje san an.’” Konsa, tout pèp la nan nwit lan, yo chak te mennen bèf yo e te kòche li la.
And Saul says, “Be scattered among the people, and you have said to them: Each bring his ox to me, and each his sheep; and you have slain [them] in this place, and eaten, and you do not sin against YHWH to eat with the blood.” And all the people bring [them]—each one [with] his ox in his hand, that night—and slaughter [them] there.
35 Epi Saül tebati yon lotèl a SENYÈ a; se te premye lotèl ke li te bati a SENYÈ a.
And Saul builds an altar to YHWH; with it he has begun to build altars to YHWH.
36 Epi Saül te di: “Annou desann dèyè Filisten yo lannwit lan, pran piyaj pami yo jis li fè klè nan maten e annou pa kite youn nan mesye yo vivan.” Epi yo te di: “Fè nenpòt sa ki sanble bon pou ou menm.” Konsa, prèt la te di: “Annou apwoche de Bondye isit la.”
And Saul says, “Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and we prey on them until the morning light, and do not leave a man of them.” And they say, “Do all that is good in your eyes.” And the priest says, “Let us draw near to God here.”
37 Saül te fè demand a Bondye: “Èske mwen dwe desann dèyè Filisten yo? Èske Ou va ba yo nan men Israël?” Men Li pa t reponn li nan jou sa a
And Saul asks of God, “Do I go down after the Philistines? Do You give them into the hand of Israel?” And He has not answered him on that day.
38 Saül te di: “Apwoche isit la, tout chèf a tout pèp la pou fè ankèt pou aprann kijan peche sa a te vin fèt jodi a.
And Saul says, “Everyone draw near here, the chiefs of the people, and know and see in what this sin has been today;
39 Paske jan SENYÈ a ki delivre Israël la viv la, malgre ke si se fis mwen, Jonathan, li va anverite mouri.” Men yon moun nan tout pèp la pa t reponn li.
for YHWH lives, who is saving Israel: surely if it is in my son Jonathan, surely he certainly dies”; and none is answering him out of all the people.
40 Alò, li te di a tout Israël: “Nou va sou yon kote e mwen menm avèk Jonathan va nan lòt kote a.” Epi pèp la te di a Saül: “Fè sa ki sanble bon a ou menm.”
And he says to all Israel, “You are on one side, and I and my son Jonathan are on another side”; and the people say to Saul, “Do that which is good in your eyes.”
41 Pou sa, Saül te di a SENYÈ a, Bondye a Israël la: “Fè yon tiraj osò konplè.” Epi Jonathan avèk Saül te pran; men pèp la te delivre.
And Saul says to YHWH, God of Israel, “Give perfection”; and Jonathan and Saul are captured, and the people went out.
42 Saül te di: “Tiraj osò a antre mwen menm avèk Jonathan, fis mwen an.” Epi se Jonathan ki pran.
And Saul says, “Cast between me and my son Jonathan”; and Jonathan is captured.
43 Alò Saül te di a Jonathan: “Di mwen kisa ou te fè a.” Konsa, Jonathan te rakonte li e te di: “Mwen, anverite, te goute yon ti kras siwo myèl avèk pwent baton ki te nan men m nan. Men mwen, fòk mwen mouri!”
And Saul says to Jonathan, “Declare to me, what have you done?” And Jonathan declares to him and says, “I certainly tasted a little honey with the end of the rod that [is] in my hand; behold, I die!”
44 Saül te di: “Ke Bondye fè sa e menm plis; paske vrèman, Jonathan, ou oblije mouri.”
And Saul says, “Thus God does, and thus does He add, for you certainly die, Jonathan.”
45 Men pèp la te di a Saül: “Èske fòk Jonathan ta mouri, ki te fè reyisi gran delivrans sa a an Israël? Lwen de sa! Kòm SENYÈ a viv la, pa menm yon cheve nan tèt li p ap tonbe atè; paske li te fè travay Bondye nan jou sa a.” Konsa, pèp la te sove Jonathan pou li pa t mouri.
And the people say to Saul, “Does Jonathan die who worked this great salvation in Israel? Certainly not! YHWH lives, if there falls to the earth [even one] hair from his head, for with God he has worked this day”; and the people rescue Jonathan, and he has not died.
46 Alò, Saül te monte kite afè kouri dèyè Filisten yo, e Filisten yo te ale kote plas pa yo a.
And Saul goes up from after the Philistines, and the Philistines have gone to their place;
47 Alò, lè Saül te pran plas chèf sou wayòm Israël la. Li te goumen kont tout lènmi li yo tout kote; kont Moab, fis a Ammon yo, Édom, wa a Zobah yo ak Filisten yo. Nenpòt kote li te vire li te pini yo.
and Saul captured the kingdom over Israel, and he fights all around against all his enemies, against Moab, and against the sons of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines, and wherever he turns he distresses [them].
48 Li te aji avèk kouraj; li te bat Amalekit yo, e li te delivre Israël soti nan men a sila ki te piyaje yo.
And he makes a force, and strikes Amalek, and delivers Israel out of the hand of its spoiler.
49 Alò, fis a Saül yo te Jonathan, Jischiv avèk Malkischua. Epi non a de fi yo se te konsa; non a premye ne a, Mérab e non a pi piti a, Mical.
And the sons of Saul are Jonathan, and Ishui, and Melchi-Shua; as for the name of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn [is] Merab, and the name of the younger Michal;
50 Non a madanm a Saül se te Achinoam fi a Achimaats la. Epi non a kapitèn lame a se te Abner, fis a Ner a, tonton a Saül.
and the name of the wife of Saul [is] Ahinoam, daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the head of his host [is] Abner son of Ner, uncle of Saul;
51 Kish se te papa a Saül ak Ner. Papa a Abner te fis a Abiel.
and Kish [is] the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abner, [is] the son of Ahiel.
52 Alò, lagè kont Filisten yo te di anpil pandan tout jou a Saül yo. Epi lè Saül te wè nenpòt gason pwisan oswa vanyan, li te fè l vin atache nan sèvis pa l la.
And the war is severe against the Philistines all the days of Saul; when Saul has seen any mighty man, and any son of valor, then he gathers him to himself.
