1 Samyèl 24
1 Alò, lè Saül te retounen kouri dèyè Filisten yo, yo te pale l e te di: “Gade byen, David nan dezè En-Guédi a.”
And whanne Saul turnede ayen, aftir that he pursuede Filisteis, thei telden to hym, and seiden, Lo! Dauid is in the deseert of Engaddi.
2 Alò, Saül te pran twa mil òm, byen chwazi soti nan tout Israël pou te ale chache David avèk mesye pa li yo devan Wòch a Kabrit Mawon yo.
Therfor Saul took three thousinde of chosun men of al Israel, and yede to seke Dauid and hise men, yhe on moost brokun rochis, that ben `able to weie to wield geet aloone.
3 Li te rive nan Pak mouton yo nan wout la, kote ki te gen yon kav; epi Saül te antre ladann pou fè poupou. Alò David avèk mesye pa li yo te chita nan pati dèyè kav la.
And he cam to the fooldis of scheep, that offriden hem silf to the wei goere. And there was a denne, in to which denne Saul entride, that he schulde purge the wombe; forsothe Dauid and hise men weren hid in the ynnere part of the denne.
4 Mesye a David yo te di a li menm: “Gade byen, men jou ke SENYÈ a te di ou a: ‘Gade byen, Mwen prèt pou livre lènmi ou an nan men ou, e ou va fè a li menm sa ki sanble bon pou ou’”. Alò David te leve e san fè bwi, te koupe arebò manto a Saül la.
And the seruauntis of Dauid seiden to hym, Lo! the dai of which the Lord spak to the, Y schal bitake to thee thin enemy, that thou do to hym as it plesith in thin iyen. Therfor Dauid roos, and kittide the hemme of the mentil of Saul priuely.
5 Li te vin rive apre ke konsyans David te twouble li, akoz li te koupe arebò a manto Saül la.
Aftir these thingis Dauid smoot his herte, for he hadde kit awei the hemme of the mentil of Saul.
6 Epi li te di a mesye pa li yo: “Se lwen de mwen ke akoz SENYÈ a, mwen ta fè bagay sa a mèt mwen an, onksyone a SENYÈ a, pou m ta lonje men m kont li; akoz li se yon onksyone pa SENYÈ a.”
And Dauid seide to hise men, The Lord be merciful to me, lest Y do this thing to my lord, the crist of the Lord, that Y sende myn hond `in to hym, for he is the crist of the Lord. The Lord lyueth, for no but the Lord smyte hym, ether his dai come, that he die, ether he go doun in to batel and perische, the Lord be merciful to me, that Y sende not myn hond in to the crist of the Lord.
7 David te konvenk mesye pa l yo avèk pawòl sila yo, li te anpeche yo leve kont Saül. Epi Saül te leve e te kite kav la pou t al fè wout li.
Forsothe Saul roos out of the denne, and yede in the weie bigunnun.
8 Alò, apre David te leve ale deyò kav la. Li te rele Saül e te di: “Mèt mwen, Wa a!” Epi lè Saül te gade dèyè li. David te bese avèk figi li atè e te fè kò l kouche nèt.
Sotheli Dauid roos aftir hym, and he yede out of the denne, and criede aftir the bak of Saul, and seide, My lord, the kyng! And Saul bihelde bihinde him silf; and Dauid bowide hym silf lowe to the erthe, and worschipide.
9 David te di a Saül: “Poukisa ou koute pawòl a moun k ap di: ‘Gade byen, David ap chache fè ou mal!’?
And he seide to Saul, Whi herist thou the wordis of men spekynge, Dauid sekith yuel ayens thee?
10 Gade byen, jou sa a zye ou gen tan wè ke SENYÈ a te livre ou nan men m nan kav la. E kèk moun te di m touye ou, men zye m te gen pitye pou ou. Konsa mwen te di: ‘Mwen p ap lonje men m kont mèt mwen an, paske li se yon onksyone a SENYÈ a.’
Lo! to dai thin iyen siyen, that the Lord bitook thee in myn hond in the denne, and Y thouyte that Y wolde sle thee, but myn iye sparide thee; for Y seide, Y schal not holde forth myn hond in to my lord, which is the crist, `that is, anoyntid, of the Lord.
11 Koulye a, papa mwen, gade! Anverite, gade arebò a manto ou ki nan men m nan! Paske akoz ke m te koupe arebò manto ou a e ke m pa t touye ou, konnen e byen konprann ke nanpwen mal, ni rebelyon nan men m pou m pa t fè peche kont ou, malgre ke ou ap kache tann pou pran lavi m.
But rathere, my fadir, se thou, and knowe the hemme of thi mentil in myn hond, for whanne Y kittide aweie the hemme of thi mentil, Y nolde holde forth myn hond in thee; perseyue thou, and see, for nether yuel nether wickidnesse is in myn hond, nether Y synnede ayens thee; but thou aspiest my lijf, that thou do it awei.
12 Ke SENYÈ a kapab jije antre ou menm avèk mwen e ke SENYÈ a ta pran vanjans mwen sou ou; men se pa men m k ap kont ou.
The Lord deme bitwixe me and thee, and the Lord venge me of thee; but myn hond be not in thee,
13 Tankou pwovèb a ansyen yo di: ‘Nan mechan an, mechanste sòti!’ Men se pa men mwen k ap kont ou.
as it is seid also in eld prouerbe, Wickidnesse schal go out of wickid men; therfor myn hond be not in thee.
14 Apre kilès wa Israël la vin sòti? Kilès k ap pouswiv ou? Yon chen mouri oubyen yon grenn pis?
`Whom pursuest thou, kyng of Israel, whom pursuest thou? Thou pursuest a deed hound, and a quyk fle.
15 Pou sa, SENYÈ a jije antre ou menm avèk mwen. Epi ke Li wè, Li plede ka m nan, e Li delivre mwen soti nan men ou.”
The Lord be iuge, and the Lord deme bitwixe me and thee, and se, and deme my cause, and delyuere me fro thin hond.
16 Lè David te fin pale pawòl sa yo a Saül, Saül te di: “Èske sa se vwa ou, fis mwen, David?” Epi Saül te leve vwa li e te kriye.
Sotheli whanne Dauid hadde fillid spekynge siche wordis to Saul, Saul seide, Whether this is thi vois, my sone Dauid? And Saul reiside his vois, and wepte.
17 Li te di a David: “Ou pi jis pase m; paske ou te aji byen avè m, pandan mwen te aji mal avè w.
And he seide to Dauid, Thou art more iust than Y; for thou yauest goodis to me; forsothe Y yeldide yuelis to thee.
18 Ou te deklare jodi a byen ke ou te fè m! Ke SENYÈ a te livre mwen nan men ou, men ou pa t touye mwen.
And thou schewidist to me to dai, what goodis thou hast do to me, how the Lord bitook me in thin hond, and thou killidist not me.
19 Paske si yon nonm jwenn avèk lènmi li, èske l ap kite li sòti konsa? Pou sa ke Bondye kapab rekonpanse ou pou sa ou te fè m la jodi a.
For who, `whanne he fyndith his enemy, schal delyuere hym in good weie? But the Lord yelde to thee this while, for that, that thou wrouytist to dai in me.
20 Alò, gade byen, mwen konnen asireman, ke ou va devni wa e ke wayòm Israël la va vin etabli nan men ou.
And now, for Y woot, that thou schalt regne moost certeynli, and schalt haue in thin hond the rewme of Israel, swere thou to me in the Lord,
21 Pou sa, sèmante a mwen menm pa SENYÈ a pou ou pa retire desandan apre mwen yo e pou ou pa detwi non mwen soti lakay papa m.”
that thou do not a wei my seed aftir me, nether take a wey my name fro the hows of my fadir.
22 David te sèmante konsa a Saül, e Saül te ale lakay li. Men David avèk mesye pa li yo te monte nan fò a.
And Dauid swoor to Saul. Therfor Saul yede in to his hows, and Dauid and hise men stieden to sikire placis.
