2 Samyèl 16
1 Alò, lè David te fin depase krèt la, vwala, Tsiba, sèvitè a Méphiboscheth la te rankontre li avèk yon pè bourik avèk makout. Sou yo, te gen de-san pen, yon santèn grap rezen, yon santèn fwi gran sezon ak yon veso diven.
And David passed on a little way from Ros; and, behold, Siba the servant of Memphibosthe [came] to meet him; and he had a couple of asses laden, and upon them two hundred loaves, and a hundred [bunches of] raisins, and a hundred [cakes of] dates, and bottle of wine.
2 Wa a te di a Tsiba: “Poukisa ou genyen sila yo?” Epi Tsiba te di: “Bourik yo se pou manm lakay wa yo monte, pen avèk fwi gran sezon an se pou jennonm yo manje e diven an se pou nenpòt moun ki fin pèdi fòs nan dezè a kab bwè.”
And the king said to Siba, What meanest you by these? and Siba, said, The asses [are] for the household of the king to sit upon, and the loaves and the dates [are] for the young men to eat, and the wine [is] for them that are faint in the wilderness to drink.
3 Alò, wa a te di: “Epi kote fis a mèt ou a?” Epi Tsiba te di a wa a: “Men vwala, li rete Jérusalem paske li te di: ‘Jodi a, lakay Israël la va restore wayòm papa m nan a mwen menm.’”
And the king said, And where [is] the son of your master? and Siba said to the king, Behold, he remains in Jerusalem; for he said, To-day shall the house of Israel restore to me the kingdom of my father.
4 Konsa, wa a te di a Tsiba: “Men vwala, tout sa ki apatyen a Méphiboscheth se pou ou.” Epi Tsiba te di: “Mwen vin bese devan ou nèt; kite mwen twouve gras nan zye ou, O mèt mwen, wa a!”
And the king said to Siba, Behold, all Memphibosthe's property [is] your. And Siba did obeisance and said, My lord, O king, let me find grace in your eyes.
5 Lè Wa David te rive Bachurim, gade byen, te sòti depi la yon mesye ki sòti nan fanmi Saül ki te rele Schimeï, fis a Guéra a. Li te parèt ak pawòl madichon san rete pandan li t ap pwoche.
And king David came to Baurim; and, behold, there came out from thence a man of the family of the house of Saul, and his name [was] Semei the son of Gera. He came forth and cursed as he went,
6 Li te jete wòch sou David, sou tout sèvitè a Wa David yo e tout mesye gran kouraj yo te sou men dwat li ak sou men goch li.
and cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on the right and left hand of the king.
7 Konsa, Schimeï te di pandan li t ap voye madichon yo: “Sòti la, sòti la, moun ki vèse san, sanzave!
And thus Semei said when he cursed him, Go out, go out, you bloody man, and man of sin.
8 SENYÈ a gen tan mete sou ou tout san koule lakay Saül, nan plas kote ou te renye a! SENYÈ a te lage wayòm nan nan men fis ou, Absalom. Epi gade, ou pran nan pwòp mechanste ou, paske ou se yon nonm ki vèse san!”
The Lord has returned upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, because you have reigned in his stead; and the Lord has given the kingdom into the hand of Abessalom your son: and, behold, you [are taken] in your mischief, because you [are] a bloody man.
9 Alò, Abischai, fis a Tseruja a te di a wa a: “Poukisa chen mouri sa a ta dwe modi mèt mwen an, wa a? Kite mwen janbe ale koupe tèt li.”
And Abessa the son of Saruia said to the king, Why does this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over now and take off his head.
10 Men wa a te di: “Kisa mwen gen avè w, O fis a Tseruja? Si li bay madichon, e si SENYÈ a te di li ‘Modi David’, alò, se kilès k ap di: ‘Poukisa ou te fè sa?’”
And the king said, What have I to do with you, you sons of Saruia? even let him alone, and so let him curse, for the Lord has told him to curse David: and who shall say, Why have you done thus?
11 Alò, David te di a Abischaï e a tout sèvitè li yo: “Gade, fis mwen ki te sòti nan mwen an koulye a ap chache lavi m. Konbyen anplis pou Benjamit sila a? Kite li e kite li bay madichon, paske SENYÈ a te pale li.
And David said to Abessa and to all his servants, Behold, my son who came forth out of my bowels seeks my life; still more now may the son of Benjamin: let him curse, because the Lord has told him.
12 Petèt SENYÈ a va gade afliksyon mwen e remete m bon olye madichon pa sila a nan jou sa a.”
If by any means the Lord may look on my affliction, thus shall he return me good for his cursing this day.
13 Konsa, David avèk mesye pa li yo te fè wout yo. Epi Schimeï te mache akote pant mòn nan vizavi de yo menm. Pandan li t ap prale, li te modi, li te jete wòch, e li te jete pousyè bò kote li.
And David and all the men with him went on the way: and Semei went by the side of the hill next to him, cursing as he went, and casting stones at him, and sprinkling him with dirt.
14 Wa a avèk tout moun ki te avèk li yo te rive byen fatige, e yo te vin rafrechi la.
And the king, and all the people with him, came away and refreshed themselves there.
15 Alò, Absalom avèk tout pèp la, mesye Israël yo te antre Jérusalem e Achitophel avèk li.
And Abessalom and all the men of Israel went into Jerusalem, and Achitophel with him.
16 Konsa, li te vin rive lè Huschaï, Akyen an, zanmi a David la te rive kote Absalom, ke Huschaï te di: “Viv wa a! Viv wa a!”
And it came to pass when Chusi the chief friend of David came to Abessalom, that Chusi said to Abessalom, Let the king live.
17 Absalom te di Huschaï: “Èske sa se fidelite ou pou zanmi ou? Poukisa ou pa t ale avèk zanmi ou an?”
And Abessalom said to Chusi, [Is] this your kindness to your friend? why went you not forth with your friend?
18 Epi Huschaï te di a Absalom: “Non, paske sila ke SENYÈ a, pèp sa a e tout mesye Israël yo te chwazi a, se pou li menm, mwen va ye, e avèk li menm, mwen va rete.
And Chusi said to Abessalom, Nay, but following whom the Lord, and this people, and all Israel have chosen, —his will I be, and with him I will dwell.
19 Anplis de sa, se kilès pou m ta sèvi? Se pa nan prezans a fis li a? Jis jan ke m te sèvi nan prezans papa ou a, konsa mwen va ye nan prezans pa w.”
And again, whom shall I serve? should I not in the presence of his son? As I served in the sight of your father, so will I be in your presence.
20 Alò, Absalom te di a Achitophel: “Ban m konsèy pa w Kisa nou dwe fè?”
And Abessalom said to Achitophel, Deliberate amongst yourselves concerning what we should do.
21 Achitophel te di a Absalom: “Antre nan ti mennaj papa ou te lese pou okipe kay la; epi tout Israël va tande ke ou te fè tèt ou rayisab a papa ou. Anplis, men a tout sila ki avèk ou yo va vin ranfòse.”
And Achitophel said to Abessalom, Go in to your father's concubines, whom he left to keep his house; and all Israel shall hear that you have dishonoured your father; and the hands of all that are with you shall be strengthened.
22 Konsa yo te monte yon tant anwo tèt kay la, epi Absalom te antre nan relasyon seksyèl ak tout konkibin papa l yo, devan zye a tout Israël.
And they pitched a tent for Abessalom on the roof, and Abessalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
23 Konsèy a Achitophel te konn bay nan jou sa yo te konsidere tankou si yon moun te mande konsèy a pawòl Bondye. Se te konsa tout konsèy Achitophel te ye pou David ak Absalom.
And the counsel of Achitophel, which he counselled in former days, [was] as if one should enquire of the word of God: so [was] all the counsel of Achitophel both to David and also to Abessalom.
