1 Samyèl 8
1 Li te vin rive ke lè Samuel te vin granmoun ke li te apwente fis li yo kòm jij sou Israël.
Forsothe it was don, whanne Samuel hadde wexide eld, he settide hise sones iugis on Israel.
2 Alò, non a premye ne a se te Joël e dezyèm nan, Abija. Yo t ap jije nan Beer-Schéba.
And the name of his firste gendrid sone was Johel, and the name of the secounde was Abia, iugis in Bersabee.
3 Malgre sa, fis li yo pa t mache nan tras pa li yo, men yo te vire akote pou reyisi avantaj malonèt, e yo te nan patipri.
And hise sones yeden not in `the weies of hym, but thei bowiden after aueryce, and thei token yiftis, and peruertiden doom.
4 Alò, tout ansyen Israël yo te rasanble, e yo te vin kote Samuel nan Rama.
Therfor alle the grettere men in birthe of Israel weren gaderid, and camen to Samuel in to Ramatha.
5 Yo te di li: “Gade byen, ou fin granmoun e fis ou yo pa mache nan vwa pa w yo. Alò, chwazi yon wa pou nou pou jije nou tankou tout nasyon yo.”
And thei seiden to hym, Lo! thou hast wexid eld, and thi sones goen not in thi weies; ordeyne thou a kyng to vs, `that he deme vs, as also alle naciouns han.
6 Men bagay la te degoutan nan zye Samuel lè yo te di: “Bannou yon wa pou jije nou.” Samuel te priye a SENYÈ a.
And the word displeside in the iyen of Samuel, for thei hadden seid, Yyue thou to vs a kyng, that he deme vs. And Samuel preiede to the Lord.
7 SENYÈ a te di a Samuel: “Koute vwa a pèp la selon tout sa ke yo di ou, paske yo pa t rejte ou, men yo te rejte Mwen kòm wa sou yo.
Forsothe the Lord seide to Samuel, Here thou the vois of the puple in alle thingis whiche thei speken to thee; for thei han not caste awey thee, but me, that Y regne not on hem.
8 Menm jan ak tout zak ke yo te fè soti nan jou ke M te mennen yo monte soti an Égypte la, jis jodi a—-ke yo te rejte Mwen pou te sèvi lòt dye yo——konsa, y ap fè ou tou.
Bi alle her werkis whiche thei diden, fro the day in whiche Y ledde hem out of Egipt `til to this dai, as thei forsoken me, and seruyden alien goddis, so thei doon also to thee.
9 Alò pou sa, koute vwa pa yo. Malgre, ou va avèti yo solanèlman e fè yo konnen prensip a wa ki va renye sou yo a.”
Now therfor here thou her vois; netheles witnesse thou to hem; biforseie thou to hem the riyt of the kyng, that schal regne on hem.
10 Konsa Samuel te pale tout pawòl a SENYÈ yo a pèp la ki te mande li pou yon wa a.
Therfor Samuel seide alle the wordis of the Lord to the puple, that hadde axid of him a king; and he seide,
11 Li te di: “Men prensip a wa ki va renye sou nou an. Li va pran fis nou yo pou sèvi yo pou li menm. Nan cha li e pami chevalye li yo, yo va kouri devan cha li.
This schal be the `riyt of the kyng, that schal comaunde to you; he schal take youre sones, and schal sette in hise charis;
12 Li va chwazi pou li menm kòmandan sou dè milye ak dè senkantèn, ak kèk pou raboure tè a, pou fè rekòlt pa li, pou fè zam lagè li yo, avèk tout bagay pou cha li yo.
and he schal make hem `to hym silf rideris, and biforegoeris of hise cartis; and he schal ordeyne to hym tribunes, `that is, souereyns of a thousynd, and centuriouns, `that is, souereyns of an hundrid, and eereris of hise feeldis, and reperis of cornes, and smythis of hise armeris, and charis.
13 Li va osi pran fi nou yo pou fè pafen, fè kwizin e kòm bòs boulanje.
Also he schal make youre douytris makeris of `oynementis to hym silf, and fueris, and bakeris.
14 Li va pran pi bon kilti nan chan kiltive nou yo avèk chan rezen nou yo ak chan doliv nou yo pou ba yo a sèvitè pa li yo.
And he schal take youre feeldis and vyneris and the beste places of olyues, and schal yyue to hise seruauntis.
15 Li va pran yon dizyèm nan semans nou yo ak nan chan rezen nou yo pou bay a ofisye li yo ak sèvitè li yo.
But also he schal take the tenthe part of youre cornes, and rentis of vyneris, that he yyue to his chaumberleyns and seruauntis.
16 Anplis li va pran sèvitè nou yo avèk sèvant nou yo ak meyè nan jennonm yo avèk bourik nou yo pou sèvi yo pou travay pa li.
Sotheli he schal take awey youre seruauntis and handmaydes, and beste yong men, and assis, and schal sette in his werk.
17 Li va pran yon dizyèm nan bann mouton nou yo e nou menm, nou va devni sèvitè li.
Also he schal take the tenthe part of youre flockis, and ye schulen be `seruauntis to hym.
18 Konsa nou va kriye nan jou sa a, akoz wa ke nou te chwazi pou nou an, men SENYÈ a p ap koute nou nan jou sa a.”
And ye schulen crye in that dai fro the face of youre kyng, whom ye han chose to you; and the Lord schal not here you in that dai; for ye axiden a kyng to you.
19 Sepandan, pèp la te refize koute vwa Samuel. Yo te di: “Non, kareman fòk nou gen yon wa sou nou,
Sotheli the puple nolde here the vois of Samuel, but thei seiden, Nay for a kyng schal be on vs;
20 pou nou menm tou kapab tankou tout lòt nasyon yo, pou wa nou kapab jije nou e sòti devan nou pou batay pou nou.”
and we also schulen be as alle folkis, and oure kyng schal deme vs, and he schal go out bifor vs, and he schal fiyte oure batel for vs.
21 Konsa, lè Samuel fin tande tout pawòl a pèp la, li te repete yo nan zòrèy a SENYÈ a.
And Samuel herde alle the wordis of the puple, and `spak tho in the eeris of the Lord.
22 SENYÈ a te di a Samuel: “Koute vwa yo e chwazi pou yo yon wa.” Konsa, Samuel te di a mesye Israël yo: “Nou chak, ale nan vil pa nou.”
Forsothe the Lord seide to Samuel, Here thou `the vois of hem, and ordeyne thou a kyng on hem. And Samuel seide to the men of Israel, Ech man go in to his citee.
