< 1 Samyèl 29 >
1 Alò, Filisten yo te rasanble tout lame pa yo ansanm nan Aphek, pandan Izrayelit yo t ap fè kan akote sous ki nan Jizreel la.
Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek: and the Israelites pitched by a fountain which is in Jezreel.
2 Konsa, mèt Filisten yo t ap avanse pa santèn e pa milye e David avèk mesye pa li yo t ap avanse pa dèyè avèk Akisch.
And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands: but David and his men passed on in the rear guard with Achish.
3 Alò, kòmandan a Filisten yo te di: “Se kisa Ebre sa yo ap fè isit la?” Epi Akisch te di a kòmandan Filisten yo: “Èske sa se pa David, sèvitè a Saül la, wa Israël la, ki te avèk mwen nan jou sa yo, oswa pito di ane sa yo, e mwen pa t twouve okenn fot nan li soti nan jou ke li te sòti a, jis jodi a?”
Then said the princes of the Philistines, What do these Hebrews here? And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines, Is not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, which has been with me these days, or these years, and I have found no fault in him since he fell unto me unto this day?
4 Men kòmandan Filisten yo te fache avèk li. Yo te di li: “Fè nonm nan ale retounen, pou li kapab retounen nan plas li kote yo te ba li ransèyman an. Pa kite li desann nan batay la avèk nou, oswa nan batay la, li kapab devni yon lènmi nou. Paske se kilès ki ta k ap fè nonm sa a vin zanmi ak mèt li a? Èske sa pa tèt a mesye sila yo?
And the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make this fellow return, that he may go again to his place which you have appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he be an adversary to us: for wherewith should he reconcile himself unto his master? should it not be with the heads of these men?
5 Èske sa se pa David, a sila yo te chante nan dans pa yo e di: ‘Saül te touye dè milye e David dè di-milye?’”
Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying, Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
6 Alò, Akisch te rele David. Li te di l: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, ladwati ou ak tout antre sòti ou avèk mwen nan lame a se yon plezi nan zye m; paske mwen pa t jwenn mal nan ou depi jou ke ou te antre kote mwen an, jis rive jodi a. Sepandan, ou pa yon plezi nan zye a lòt chèf yo.
Then Achish called David, and said unto him, Surely, as the LORD lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the host is good in my sight: for I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming unto me unto this day: nevertheless the lords favour you not.
7 Alò, pou sa, retounen ale anpè, pou ou pa fè mèt Filisten yo pa kontan.”
Wherefore now return, and go in peace, that you displease not the lords of the Philistines.
8 David te di a Akisch: “Men kisa mwen te fè? Epi kisa ou te twouve nan sèvitè ou a depi nan jou ke m te vini devan ou an jis rive Jodi a, pou m pa kapab ale goumen kont lènmi a mèt mwen an, wa a?”
And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and what have you found in your servant so long as I have been with you unto this day, that I may not go fight against the enemies of my lord the king?
9 Men Akisch te reponn David: “Mwen konnen ke ou se yon plezi nan zye m, tankou yon zanj Bondye! Sepandan, kòmandan Filisten yo te di: ‘Fòk li pa monte avèk nou nan batay la.’
And Achish answered and said to David, I know that you are good in my sight, as an angel of God: notwithstanding the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle.
10 Alò, pou sa, leve bonè nan maten avèk sèvitè a mèt ou ki te vini avèk ou yo, e lamenm lè ou leve nan maten bonè, pati.”
Wherefore now rise up early in the morning with your master's servants that are come with you: and as soon as all of you be up early in the morning, and have light, depart.
11 Konsa, David te leve bonè, li avèk mesye pa li yo, pou pati nan maten pou retounen nan peyi a Filisten yo. Epi Filisten yo te monte Jizreel.
So David and his men rose up early to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
