< 1 Samuel 24 >

1 And whanne Saul turnede ayen, aftir that he pursuede Filisteis, thei telden to hym, and seiden, Lo! Dauid is in the deseert of Engaddi.
Lè Sayil tounen soti fè lagè ak moun Filisti yo, yo vin di l' David te nan dezè Angedi a.
2 Therfor Saul took three thousinde of chosun men of al Israel, and yede to seke Dauid and hise men, yhe on moost brokun rochis, that ben `able to weie to wield geet aloone.
Sayil pran twamil (3000) sòlda nan pèp Izrayèl la, sa ki te fò anpil nan fè lagè. Epi li pati al chache David ak mesye l' yo sou solèy leve Wòch Kabrit mawon yo.
3 And he cam to the fooldis of scheep, that offriden hem silf to the wei goere. And there was a denne, in to which denne Saul entride, that he schulde purge the wombe; forsothe Dauid and hise men weren hid in the ynnere part of the denne.
Li rive devan yon gwòt ki te toupre yon pak mouton bò wout la. Li antre nan gwòt la al fè bezwen li. David menm te kache nan fon gwòt la ansanm ak mesye l' yo.
4 And the seruauntis of Dauid seiden to hym, Lo! the dai of which the Lord spak to the, Y schal bitake to thee thin enemy, that thou do to hym as it plesith in thin iyen. Therfor Dauid roos, and kittide the hemme of the mentil of Saul priuely.
Mesye yo di David konsa: -Men chans ou, men okazyon Seyè a te di l'ap ba ou a. Seyè a te di: L'ap lage lènmi ou la nan men ou, w'a fè sa ou vle avè l'. David leve, li mache tou dousman, li koupe yon moso nan rad Sayil san Sayil pa konn sa.
5 Aftir these thingis Dauid smoot his herte, for he hadde kit awei the hemme of the mentil of Saul.
Men apre sa, konsyans David repwoche l' pou ke rad Sayil li te koupe a.
6 And Dauid seide to hise men, The Lord be merciful to me, lest Y do this thing to my lord, the crist of the Lord, that Y sende myn hond `in to hym, for he is the crist of the Lord. The Lord lyueth, for no but the Lord smyte hym, ether his dai come, that he die, ether he go doun in to batel and perische, the Lord be merciful to me, that Y sende not myn hond in to the crist of the Lord.
Li di moun li yo: -Mande Bondye padon! Mwen p'ap fè bagay konsa sou mèt mwen, moun Bondye chwazi pou wa a. Mwen p'ap janm leve men mwen sou li, paske se Seyè a menm ki te chwazi l' pou wa.
7 Forsothe Saul roos out of the denne, and yede in the weie bigunnun.
David pale ak mesye l' yo pou yo wete lide konsa nan tèt yo. Li pa kite yo fè Sayil anyen. Sayil leve, li soti nan gwòt la, li mache al fè wout li.
8 Sotheli Dauid roos aftir hym, and he yede out of the denne, and criede aftir the bak of Saul, and seide, My lord, the kyng! And Saul bihelde bihinde him silf; and Dauid bowide hym silf lowe to the erthe, and worschipide.
Lè sa a, David soti dèyè l', li rele l': -Monwa! Monwa! Sayil vire gade dèyè li. David tonbe ajenou, li bese tèt li jouk atè.
9 And he seide to Saul, Whi herist thou the wordis of men spekynge, Dauid sekith yuel ayens thee?
Epi li di: -Poukisa w'ap koute moun k'ap di ou m'ap chache fè malè sou ou?
10 Lo! to dai thin iyen siyen, that the Lord bitook thee in myn hond in the denne, and Y thouyte that Y wolde sle thee, but myn iye sparide thee; for Y seide, Y schal not holde forth myn hond in to my lord, which is the crist, `that is, anoyntid, of the Lord.
Gade, jòdi a ou wè ak je ou ki jan Seyè a te lage ou nan men m' anndan gwòt la. Gen moun ki di m' se pou m' te touye ou. Men, kè m' fè m' mal pou ou. Mwen di mwen p'ap janm leve men m' sou mèt mwen, paske se Seyè a menm ki te chwazi ou pou wa.
11 But rathere, my fadir, se thou, and knowe the hemme of thi mentil in myn hond, for whanne Y kittide aweie the hemme of thi mentil, Y nolde holde forth myn hond in thee; perseyue thou, and see, for nether yuel nether wickidnesse is in myn hond, nether Y synnede ayens thee; but thou aspiest my lijf, that thou do it awei.
Gade, papa mwen! Men yon moso ke rad ou nan men m'! Mwen koupe moso ke rad ou, men mwen pa t' touye ou. Koulye a ou konnen, ou wè mwen pa gen anyen dèyè tèt mwen, mwen pa gen ankenn lide mechanste nan tèt mwen. Mwen pa fè ou anyen ki mal. Se ou menm k'ap chache touye m'.
12 The Lord deme bitwixe me and thee, and the Lord venge me of thee; but myn hond be not in thee,
Se pou Seyè a jije ant nou de a kilès ki antò! Se pou Seyè a pini ou pou sa w'ap fè m' la a, paske mwen menm, mwen p'ap janm leve men m' sou ou.
13 as it is seid also in eld prouerbe, Wickidnesse schal go out of wickid men; therfor myn hond be not in thee.
Jan pwovèb granmoun lontan yo di: Se moun mechan ki fè mechanste! Men mwen p'ap leve men m' sou ou.
14 `Whom pursuest thou, kyng of Israel, whom pursuest thou? Thou pursuest a deed hound, and a quyk fle.
Dèyè ki moun wa pèp Izrayèl la ye konsa? Dèyè ki moun l'ap kouri konsa? Dèyè yon chen mouri? Dèyè yon ti pis?
15 The Lord be iuge, and the Lord deme bitwixe me and thee, and se, and deme my cause, and delyuere me fro thin hond.
Seyè a va sèvi nou jij! L'a jije ant nou de a kilès ki antò! Se pou l' mete bouch nan zafè a, pou l' pran defans mwen, pou l' delivre m' anba men ou.
16 Sotheli whanne Dauid hadde fillid spekynge siche wordis to Saul, Saul seide, Whether this is thi vois, my sone Dauid? And Saul reiside his vois, and wepte.
Lè David fin pale, Sayil di: -Se pa vwa David, pitit gason m' lan, sa? Epi li pran kriye.
17 And he seide to Dauid, Thou art more iust than Y; for thou yauest goodis to me; forsothe Y yeldide yuelis to thee.
Li di David konsa: -Ou gen rezon. Se mwen ki antò! Ou te aji byen avè m'. Se mwen menm ki te aji mal avè ou.
18 And thou schewidist to me to dai, what goodis thou hast do to me, how the Lord bitook me in thin hond, and thou killidist not me.
Jòdi a ankò, ou fè m' wè se byen ou vle fè pou mwen paske, atout Seyè a lage m' nan men ou, ou pa touye m'.
19 For who, `whanne he fyndith his enemy, schal delyuere hym in good weie? But the Lord yelde to thee this while, for that, that thou wrouytist to dai in me.
Lè yon moun jwenn okazyon pou l' mete men l' sou lènmi l', èske l'ap kite l' al fè wout li san li pa fè l' anyen? Bondye va beni ou pou sa ou fè pou mwen jòdi a.
20 And now, for Y woot, that thou schalt regne moost certeynli, and schalt haue in thin hond the rewme of Israel, swere thou to me in the Lord,
Koulye a, mwen konnen ou gen pou ou wa vre. Avèk ou menm wa pèp Izrayèl la, gouvènman an ap kanpe fèm.
21 that thou do not a wei my seed aftir me, nether take a wey my name fro the hows of my fadir.
Men tanpri, pwomèt mwen, nan non Seyè a, ou p'ap touye pitit mwen yo lè m'a mouri, pou non m' pa disparèt nan fanmi papa m'.
22 And Dauid swoor to Saul. Therfor Saul yede in to his hows, and Dauid and hise men stieden to sikire placis.
David pwomèt Sayil li p'ap fè sa. Apre sa, Sayil al lakay li. David menm tounen nan kachèt li ansanm ak mesye pa l' yo.
