Kings I 10
1 And Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured [it] on his head, and kissed him, and said to him, Has not the Lord anointed you for a ruler over his people, over Israel? and you shall rule amongst the people of the Lord, and you shall save them out of the hand of their enemies; and this [shall be] the sign to you that the Lord has anointed you for a ruler over his inheritance.
Samyèl pran yon ti poban lwil oliv, li vide l' sou tèt Sayil. Apre sa, li bo l', epi li di l': -Seyè a ba ou pouvwa pou gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la ki rele l' pa l'. W'a gouvènen pèp li a, w'a delivre yo anba men tout lènmi ki bò kote l' yo. Men sa k'ap fè ou wè se Seyè a menm ki mete ou apa pou gouvènen pèp ki pou li a.
2 [As soon] as you shall have departed this day from me, you shall find two men by the burial-place of Rachel on the mount of Benjamin, exulting greatly; and they shall say to you, The asses are found which you went to seek; and, behold, your father has given up the matter of the asses, and he is anxious for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
Lè w'a kite m' jòdi a, w'a jwenn de mesye toupre tonm Rachèl la lavil Sèlza, nan lizyè peyi moun Benjamen yo. Y'a di ou bourik ou t'ap bouske yo, yo jwenn yo. Men, koulye a papa ou bliye bourik li yo, se pou ou li gen tèt chaje. L'ap mande: Kisa mwen pral fè pou pitit gason m' lan?
3 And you shall depart thence, and shall go beyond that as far as the oak of Thabor, and you shall find there three men going up to God to Baethel, one bearing three kids, and another bearing three vessels of bread, and another bearing a bottle of wine.
Lèfini, w'a mache pi devan jouk w'a rive bò pye bwadchenn Tabò a. Lè w'a rive la, w'a kontre ak twa nèg k'ap moute lavil Betèl pou y' al ofri bèt pou touye pou Bondye. Yonn ap mennen twa jenn ti kabrit, dezyèm lan va gen twa pen nan men l', twazyèm lan va gen yon veso fèt an po bèt plen diven.
4 And they shall ask you how you do, and shall give you two presents of bread, and you shall receive them of their hand.
Y'a di ou bonjou, y'a ba ou de nan pen yo. W'a pran yo nan men yo.
5 And afterward you shall go to the hill of God, where is the encampment of the Philistines; there [is] Nasib the Philistine: an it shall come to pass when you shall have entered into the city, that you shall meet a band of prophets coming down from the Bama; and before them will be lutes, and a drum, and a pipe, and a harp, and they shall prophesy.
Apre sa, w'a moute sou ti mòn Bondye yo rele Gibeya a, kote yon lame moun Filisti moute ganizon yo. Lè w'ap antre nan lavil la, w'a kontre ak yon gwoup pwofèt k'ap desann soti bò lotèl ki sou ti mòn lan. Y'ap jwe gita, y'ap bat tanbou, y'ap jwe fif ak bandjo, y'ap danse, y'ap bay mesaj ki sot nan Bondye.
6 And the Spirit of the Lord shall come upon you, and you shall prophesy with them, and shall be turned into another man.
Lespri Bondye a va desann sou ou, w'a pran danse, w'ap bay mesaj ki soti nan Bondye tankou yo. Ou p'ap menm moun lan ankò.
7 And it shall come to pass when these signs shall come upon you, —[then] do you whatever your hand shall find, because God [is] with you.
Lè bagay sa yo va rive, w'a fè tou sa ki vin pou fèt paske se Bondye k'ap avè ou.
8 And you shall go down in front of Galgal, and behold, I come down to you to offer a whole burnt offering and peace-offerings: seven days shall you wait until I shall come to you, and I will make known to you what you shall do.
Apre sa, w'a pran devan m', w'a desann lavil Gilgal kote m'a vin jwenn ou pita pou m' ofri bèt pou boule nèt pou Seyè a ansanm ak ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi. Lèfini, w'a tann sèt jou anvan m'a vin jwenn ou ankò pou m' di ou sa pou ou fè.
9 And it came to pass when he turned his back to depart from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all these signs came to pass in that day.
Vire Sayil vire pou l' kite Samyèl, Bondye fè Sayil tounen yon lòt moun nèt. Jou sa a tout pawòl Samyèl te di l' yo rive vre.
10 And he comes thence to the hill, and behold a band of prophets opposite to him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied in the midst of them.
Lè Sayil rive lavil Gibeya ak domestik li a, yon bann pwofèt vin kontre avè l'. Lespri Bondye a desann sou li epi li pran danse, li pran bay mesaj tankou yo.
11 And all that had known him before came, and saw, and behold, he [was] in the midst of the prophets: and the people said every one to his neighbour, What [is] this that has happened to the son of Kis? [is] Saul also amongst the prophets?
Tout moun ki te konnen l' anvan sa wè li t'ap danse, li t'ap bay mesaj ansanm ak pwofèt yo. Yonn t'ap di lòt: -Sa ki rive pitit gason Kich la? Sayil gen lè pwofèt tou?
12 And one of them answered and said, And who [is] his father? and therefore it became a proverb, [Is] Saul also amongst the prophets?
Yon moun lavil Gibeya ki te la mande: -Lòt mesye pwofèt yo, ki moun ki papa yo? Se konsa moun te konmanse ap di: Gen lè menm Sayil pwofèt tou?
13 And he ceased prophesying, and comes to the hill.
Lè Sayil fin danse, lè li te fin bay mesaj, li moute sou ti mòn lan bò lotèl la.
14 And his kinsman said to him and to his servant, Whither went you? and they said, To seek the asses; and we saw that they were lost, and we went in to Samuel.
Tonton Sayil la mande l' ansanm ak domestik li a: -Kote nou te ye konsa? Sayil reponn tonton l' lan: -Mwen t' al chache bourik yo. Lè nou pa jwenn yo, n' al kote Samyèl.
15 And his kinsman said to Saul, Tell me, I pray you, What did Samuel say to you?
Tonton Sayil la mande l': -Rakonte m' sa li di ou.
16 And Saul said to his kinsman, he verily told me that the asses were found. But the matter of the kingdom he told him not.
Sayil reponn li: -Li di m' yo jwenn bourik yo deja. Men, li pa di tonton l' sa Samyèl te di l' sou koze wa a.
17 And Samuel summoned all the people before the Lord to Massephath.
Samyèl reyini pèp Izrayèl la pou fè yon gwo sèvis pou Bondye lavil Mispa.
18 And he said to the children of Israel, Thus has the Lord God of Israel spoken, saying, I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, and I rescued you out of the hand of Pharao king of Egypt, and out of all the kingdoms that afflicted you.
Li di yo: -Men sa Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la di: Se mwen menm ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip la. Se mwen menm ki te delivre nou anba men moun Lejip yo, anba men moun lòt nasyon ki t'ap peze nou yo.
19 And you have this day rejected God, who is himself your Deliverer out of all your evils and afflictions; and you said, Nay, but you shall set a king over us: and now stand before the Lord according to your tribes, and according to your families.
Se mwen menm Bondye nou an ki te pwoteje nou nan tout move pa, nan tout kè sere, epi koulye a n'ap voye m' jete, n'ap di m' se yon wa pou m' mete gouvènen nou! Enben, nou tout, vini non devan Seyè a. Sanble tout moun, branch fanmi pa branch fanmi, fanmi pa fanmi. Fè yo parèt devan li.
20 And Samuel brought near all the tribes of Israel, and the tribe of Benjamin is taken by lot.
Lè sa a, Samyèl fè tout pèp Izrayèl la pwoche branch fanmi pa branch fanmi. Seyè a chwazi branch fanmi Benjamen an.
21 And he brings near the tribe of Benjamin by families, and the family of Mattari is taken by lot: and they bring near the family of Mattari, man by man, and Saul the son of Kis is taken; and he sought him, but he was not found.
Apre sa, Samyèl fè tout fanmi branch Benjamen yo pwoche yonn apre lòt. Seyè a chwazi fanmi Matri a. Lè sa a, li fè tout gason nan fanmi Matri a parèt devan Seyè a, Bondye chwazi Sayil, pitit gason Kich la. Yo chache l', men yo pa t' ka jwenn li.
22 And Samuel asked yet again of the Lord, Will the man come here? and the Lord said, Behold, he is hid amongst the stuff.
Y' al mande Seyè a si pa gen lòt moun ankò. Seyè a reponn: -Men Sayil kache dèyè pwovizyon yo!
23 And he ran and took him thence, and he set him in the midst of the people; and he was higher than all the people by his shoulders and upwards.
Se konsa yo kouri al wete l' la, yo mennen l', yo fè l' kanpe nan mitan pèp la. Li te pi wo pase yo tout.
24 And Samuel said to all the people, Have you seen whom the Lord has chosen to himself, that there is none like to him amongst you all? And all the people took notice, and said, Let the king live!
Samyèl di pèp la: -Men moun Seyè a chwazi a. Pa gen tankou l' nan mitan pèp la. Tout pèp la pran rele: -Viv wa Sayil!
25 And Samuel told the people the manner of the king, and wrote it in a book, and set it before the Lord: and Samuel sent away all the people, and each went to his place.
Apre sa, Samyèl esplike pèp la ki jan pou wa a boule ak yo. Lèfini, li ekri tou sa li te di yo nan yon liv li mete devan lotèl Seyè a. Apre sa, Samyèl voye tout moun lakay yo.
26 And Saul departed to his house to Gabaa; and there went with Saul mighty men whose hearts God had touched.
Sayil tou al lakay li lavil Gibeya. Bondye te pale nan kè kèk vanyan gason. Yo menm tou, y' ale ansanm ak Sayil.
27 But evil men said, Who [is] this man [that] shall save us? and they despised him, and brought him no gifts.
Men te gen kèk vòryen ki t'ap di: -Ki jan jenn gason sa a ka rive delivre nou? Yo pa okipe Sayil menm, yo pa fè l' kado anyen. Sayil menm fè tankou li pa konprann.
