1 Samyèl 16
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Samuel: “Pandan konbyen de tan ou va lamante pou Saül, paske Mwen te rejte li kòm wa sou Israël? Ranpli poban ou avèk lwil e ale. Mwen va voye ou vè Jesse, mesye Bethléhem nan, paske mwen te chwazi yon wa pou kont Mwen pami fis li yo.”
And the Lord seide to Samuel, Hou long biweilist thou Saul, sithen Y castide hym awey, that he regne not on Israel; fille thin horn with oile, and come, that Y sende thee to Ysay of Bethleem; for among hise sones Y haue purueide a king to me.
2 Men Samuel te di: “Kijan mwen kapab ale? Lè Saül tande koze sa a, li va touye mwen.” Epi SENYÈ a te di: “Pran yon gazèl avèk ou e di: ‘Mwen vin fè sakrifis bay SENYÈ a.’
And Samuel seide, Hou schal Y go? for Saul schal here, and he schal sle me. And the Lord seide, Thou schalt take a calf of the droue in thi hond, and thou schalt seye, Y cam to make sacrifice to the Lord.
3 Ou va envite Jesse pou vini nan sakrifis la. Mwen va montre ou kisa pou ou fè, e ou va onksyone pou Mwen, sila ke M montre ou a.”
And thou schalt clepe Ysay to the sacrifice, and Y schal schewe to thee, what thou schalt do; and thou schalt anoynte, whom euere Y schal schewe to thee.
4 Konsa, Samuel te fè sa ke SENYÈ a te di a, e li te vini Bethléhem. Epi ansyen lavil yo te vin rankontre li tou. Ak tranbleman yo pwoche l e te di: “Èske nou vini nan lapè?”
Therfor Samuel dide, as the Lord spak to hym; and he cam in to Bethleem, and the eldere men of the citee wondriden, and camen to hym, and seiden, Whether thin entryng is pesible?
5 Li te di: “Nan lapè; mwen te vin fè sakrifis bay SENYÈ a. Pou sa, konsakre nou e vin avè m nan sakrifis la.” Anplis, li te konsakre Jesse avèk fis li yo, e li te envite yo nan sakrifis la.
And he seide, It is pesible; Y cam to make sacrifice to the Lord; be ye halewid, and come ye with me, that Y make sacrifice. Therfor he halewide Ysai, and hise sones, and clepide hem to the sacrifice.
6 Lè yo te antre, li te gade Eliab e li te panse: “Vrèman onksyone SENYÈ a devan m nan.”
And whanne thei hadden entrid, he siy Eliab, and seide, Whether bifor the Lord is his crist?
7 Men SENYÈ a te di Samuel: “Pa gade aparans li, ni wotè li, paske Mwen te rejte li. Paske Bondye pa gade tankou yon nonm gade. Paske lòm wè selon aparans deyò, men SENYÈ a wè kè a.”
And the Lord seide to Samuel, Biholde thou not his cheer, nethir hiynesse of his stature; for Y castide hym awei, and Y demyde not bi `the siyt of man; for a man seeth tho thingis that ben opyn, but the Lord biholdith the herte.
8 Epi Jesse te rele Abinadab pou te fè l pase devan Samuel. Epi li te di: “SENYÈ a pa t chwazi sila a nonpli.”
And Ysai clepide Amynadab, and brouyte hym bifor Samuel; which seide, Nether the Lord hath chose this.
9 Pwochènman, Jesse te fè Schamma vin pase. Epi li te di: “SENYÈ a pa t chwazi sila a nonpli.”
Forsothe Isay brouyte Samma; of whom Samuel seide, Also the Lord hath not chose this.
10 Konsa Jesse te fè kat nan fis li yo pase devan Samuel. Men Samuel te di a Jesse: “SENYÈ a pa t chwazi sila yo.”
Therfor Isai brouyte hise seuene sones bifor Samuel; and Samuel seide to Ysai, The Lord hath `not chose of these.
11 Epi Samuel te di a Jesse: “Èske sa yo se tout pitit ou yo?” Epi li te di: “Rete toujou pi piti a. Gade, li ap okipe mouton yo.” Alò Samuel te di a Jesse: “Voye chache li, paske nou p ap chita jiskaske li vin isit la.”
And Samuel seide to Isai, Whether thi sones ben now fillid? And Isai answeride, Yit `another is, a litil child, and lisewith scheep. And Samuel seide to Isai, Sende thou, and brynge hym; for we schulen not sitte to mete, bifor that he come hidur.
12 Konsa, li te voye chache li antre. Alò li te wouj avèk zye byen bèl ak aparans ki bèl. Epi SENYÈ a te di: “Leve, onksyone li, paske sa se li menm.”
Therfor Ysai sente, and brouyte hym; sotheli he was rodi, and fair in siyt, and of semely face. And the Lord seide, Rise thou, and anoynte hym; for it is he.
13 Konsa, Samuel te pran poban lwil la pou te onksyone li nan mitan frè li yo. Epi Lespri SENYÈ a te vini byen fò sou David depi jou sa a, ale nèt. Epi Samuel te leve pou te ale Rama.
Therfor Samuel took the horn of oyle, and anoyntid hym in the myddis of his britheren; and the Spirit of the Lord was dressid in to Dauid fro that day `and afterward. And Samuel roos, and yede in to Ramatha.
14 Alò, Lespri SENYÈ a te vin kite Saül e yon move lespri ki sòti nan SENYÈ a te teworize li.
And so the Spirit of the Lord yede awei fro Saul, and a wickid spirit of the Lord trauelide Saul.
15 Sèvitè a Saül yo te di li: “Gade byen, koulye a, yon move lespri ki sòti nan Bondye ap teworize ou.
And the seruauntis of Saul seiden to hym, Lo! an yuel spirit of the Lord traueilith thee;
16 Kite mèt nou an kòmande sèvitè li yo pou chache yon nonm ki fò nan jwe ap. Konsa li va rive lè move lespri ki sòti nan Bondye a vini sou ou, ke li va jwe ap la avèk men l e ou va vin geri.”
oure lord the kyng comaunde, and thi seruauntis that ben bifore thee, schulen seke a man, that kan synge with an harpe, that whanne the yuel spirit of the Lord takith thee, he harpe with his hond, and thou bere esiliere.
17 Pou sa, Saül te di a sèvitè li yo: “Founi pou mwen koulye a yon nonm ki kapab jwe ap e mennen li ban mwen.”
And Saul seide to hise seruauntis, Puruey ye to me sum man syngynge wel, and brynge ye hym to me.
18 Alò, youn nan jennonm sa yo te di: “Gade byen, mwen konn wè yon fis a Jesse, Betleyemit lan, ki se yon mizisyen byen fò, yon mesye pwisan avèk anpil kouraj, yon gèrye, yon moun ki saj nan pawòl, yon bo gason; epi SENYÈ a avè l.”
And oon of the children answeride and seide, Lo! Y siy the sone of Ysai of Bethleem, kunnynge to synge, and `strongeste in myyt, and `a man able to batel, and prudent in wordis, and a feir man; and the Lord is with hym.
19 Konsa, Saül te voye mesaje yo vè Jesse e te di: “Voye pou mwen David, fis ou a, ki avèk bann mouton an.”
Therfor Saul sente messangeris to Ysay, and seide, Sende thou to me Dauid thi sone, `which is in the lesewis.
20 Jesse te pran yon bourik chaje avèk pen ak yon boutèy diven avèk yon jenn kabrit e li te voye yo kote Saül avèk David, fis li a.
Therfor Isai took an asse `ful of looues, and a galoun of wyn, and a `kyde of geet; and sente bi the hond of Dauid his sone to Saul.
21 Epi David te vin kote Saül e li te okipe li. Saül te renmen li anpil, e David te devni pòtè a zam pou li.
And Dauid cam to Saul, and stood bifor hym; and Saul louyde hym greetli, and he was maad `his squyer.
22 Saül te voye a Jesse, e te di: “Kite David kanpe koulye a devan mwen, paske li gen tan twouve favè nan zye m.”
And Saul sente to Isay, and seide, Dauid stonde in my siyt, for he foond grace in myn iyen.
23 Epi li te rive ke nenpòt lè move lespri ki sòti nan Bondye a te vin kote Saül, David te pran ap la, e li te jwe avèk men li. Konsa, Saül te renouvle, li te vin sen e move lespri a te vin kite li.
Therfor whanne euer the wickid spirit of the Lord took Saul, Dauid took the harpe, and smoot with his hond, and Saul was coumfortid, and he hadde liytere; for the wickid spirit yede awey fro hym.
