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 encamped by the spring 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.
The lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds and by thousands; and David and his men passed on in the rear 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 the princes of the Philistines said, “What about these Hebrews?” Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, “Isn’t this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or rather these years? I have found no fault in him since he fell away until today.”
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?
But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; and the princes of the Philistines said to him, “Make the man return, that he may go back to his place where you have appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us. For with what should this fellow reconcile himself to his lord? 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?’”
Isn’t this David, of whom people sang to one another in dances, saying, ‘Saul has slain 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 to him, “As the LORD lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight; for I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me to this day. Nevertheless, the lords don’t favour you.
7 Alò, pou sa, retounen ale anpè, pou ou pa fè mèt Filisten yo pa kontan.”
Therefore now return, and go in peace, that you not displease 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?”
David said to Achish, “But what have I done? What have you found in your servant so long as I have been before you to this day, that I may not go and 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.’
Achish answered 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.”
Therefore now rise up early in the morning with the servants of your lord who have come with you; and as soon as you are 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 rose up early, he and his men, to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines; and the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
