2 Samuel 14
1 Forsothe Joab, the sone of Saruye, vndirstood, that the herte of the kyng was turned to Absolon;
Joab, pitit Sewouya a, te konnen wa David te anvi wè Absalon anpil.
2 and he sente to Thecua, and took fro thennus a wise womman, and he seide to hir, Feyne thee to morene, and be thou clothid with clooth of duyl, and be thou anoyntid with oile, that thou be as a womman by morenynge `now in ful myche tyme a deed man.
Sa li fè, li voye lavil Tekoa al chache yon fanm ki te gen anpil ladrès. Lè fanm lan rive, li di l' konsa: -Ou pral pran pòz ou nan gwo lapenn. W'ap mete rad dèy sou ou, lèfini pa mete ankenn odè sou ou. Se pou yo ka pran ou pou yon moun ki gen yon moun mouri depi lontan.
3 And thou schalt entre to the kyng, and thou schalt speke to hym siche wordis. Sotheli Joab puttide the wordis in hir mouth.
Lèfini, ou pral bò kote wa a, w'a di l' tou sa m'a di ou di li. Apre sa, Joab fè bouch li.
4 Therfor whanne the womman of Thecua hadde entrid to the kyng, sche felde bifor hym on the erthe, and worschipide, and seide, A! kyng, kepe me.
Fanm lan ale vre bò kot wa a, li tonbe ajenou devan wa a, li bese tèt li jouk atè, epi li di: -Tanpri, monwa, fe kichòy pou mwen!
5 And the kyng seide to hir, What hast thou of cause? And sche answeride, Alas! Y am a womman widewe, for myn hosebonde is deed;
Wa a mande l': -Kisa ou genyen? Fanm lan reponn li: -Adje, monwa! Se yon pòv vèv mwen ye. Mari m' mouri.
6 and tweyne sones weren of thin handmayde, whiche debatiden ayens hem silf in the feeld, and `noon was that myyte forbede hem, and oon smoot `the tother, and killide hym.
Li kite m' ak de pitit gason. Yon jou, yo te nan jaden, yonn gen kont ak lòt, yo goumen. Pa t' gen pesonn la pou separe yo. Yonn ladan yo touye lòt la.
7 And lo! al the kynrede risith ayens thin handmayde, and seith, Yyue thou hym that killide his brothir, that we sle hym for the lijf of his brother whom he killide, and that we do awei the eir; and thei seken to quenche my sparcle whych is lefte, that name dwelle not to myn hosebonde, and relikis, `ethir remenauntis, be not to him on erthe.
Koulye a menm, tout fanmi m' yo leve dèyè m', y'ap mande m' pou m' lage sa ki te touye lòt la nan men yo pou yo touye l' tou, paske li te touye frè l' la. Si yo fè sa, m'ap rete san pitit gason. Y'ap wete dènye ti espwa ki te rete m' lan. Lèfini, mari m' p'ap gen yon pitit gason pou leve non l' sou tè a.
8 And the kyng seide to the womman, Go in to thin hows, and Y schal comaunde for thee.
Wa a di madanm lan: -Ou mèt al lakay ou. M'ap okipe sa pou ou.
9 And the womman of Thecua seide to the kyng, My lord the kyng, this wickidnesse be on me, and on the hows of my fadir; forsothe the kyng and his trone be innocent.
Fanm lavil Tekoa a di wa a konsa: -Monwa, nenpòt kisa w'a deside fè, si pou gen repwòch, y'a repwoche mwen menm ansanm ak fanmi pa m'. Men, ou menm ak gouvènman ou, nou pa reskonsab anyen.
10 And the kyng seide, Brynge thou hym to me, that ayenseith thee, and he schal no more adde that he touche thee.
Wa a reponn li: -Si yon moun konprann pou li kraponnen ou, mennen l' ban mwen. Li p'ap janm chache ou kont ankò.
11 And sche seide, The kyng haue mynde on his Lord God, and the nexte men of blood to take veniaunce be not multiplied, and `thei schulen not sle my sone. And the kyng seide, The Lord lyueth, for noon of the heeris of thi sone schal falle on the erthe.
Fanm lan di ankò: -Tanpri, monwa! Lapriyè Seyè a, Bondye ou la, pou moun nan fanmi an ki reskonsab pou tire revanj lanmò pitit gason m' lan pa fè plis dega toujou, pou l' pa touye lòt pitit gason ki rete m' lan. David reponn li: -Mwen fè sèman nan non Seyè ki vivan an, mwen p'ap kite yo manyen yon grenn cheve nan tèt pitit gason ou lan!
12 Therfor the womman seide, Thin handmayde speke a word to my lord the kyng. And the kyng seide, Speke thou.
Lè sa a, fanm lan di ankò: -Tanpri, monwa! Kite m' di ou yon dènye pawòl. Wa a reponn li: -Pale non.
13 And the womman seide, Whi `thouytist thou sich a thing ayens the puple of God? and the kyng spak this word, that he do synne, and brynge not ayen his sone cast out?
Fanm lan di l' konsa: -Poukisa ou fè move lide sa a sou pèp Bondye a? Ou pa vle kite pwòp pitit gason ou lan tounen nan peyi a. Jan ou sot pale a, ou kondannen pwòp tèt ou.
14 Alle we dyen, and as watris that schulen not turne ayen, we sliden in to erthe; and God nyl that a soule perische, but he withdrawith, and thenkith lest he perische outirly, which is cast awey.
Nou tout gen pou mouri. Nou tankou dlo. Depi ou lage dlo atè, ou pa ka ranmase l' ankò. Lè yon moun fin mouri, li mouri nèt. Men, Bondye ta vle pou moun ki te kouri al chache pwoteksyon nan peyi etranje a tounen nan peyi l'.
15 Now therfor come thou, that Y speke to my lord the kyng this word, while the puple is present; and thin handmaide seide, Y schal speke to the kyng, if in ony maner the kyng do the word of his handmayde.
Monwa, rezon ki fè mwen te vin pale avè ou la, se paske moun yo t'ap fè m' pè. Mwen di nan kè m' mwen pral pale ak wa a. Wa a ka fè sa m'ap mande l' la.
16 And the kyng herde the wordis, that he schulde delyuere his handmayde fro the hondis of alle men, that wolden do awei me, and my sone to gidere, fro the eritage of the Lord.
Mwen t'ap di wa a ka koute m', li ka delivre m' anba men moun ki soti pou yo touye pitit gason m' lan ansanm avè m', anba men moun ki soti pou wete moso tè ki vin pou nou nan peyi Bondye bay pèp li a.
17 Therfor thin hand mayde seie, that the word of my lord the kyng be maad as sacrifice, `that is, that the sentence youun of hym be plesaunt to God, as sacrifice plesith God; for as an aungel of the Lord, so is my lord the kyng, that he be not mouyd bi blessyng nether bi cursyng. Wherfor and thi Lord God is with thee.
Mwen di ankò pawòl monwa va ban m' kouraj paske wa a se tankou yon zanj Bondye li ye. Li konn rekonèt sa ki byen ak sa ki mal. Mwen mande pou Seyè a, Bondye ou la, toujou kanpe la avè ou!
18 And the kyng answeride, and seide to the womman, Hide thou not fro me the word which Y axe thee. And the womman seide to hym, Speke thou, my lord the kyng.
Wa a di l' konsa: -Mwen pral mande ou kichòy, pa kache m' anyen. Fanm lan reponn: -Monwa, mande m' sa ou vle?
19 And the kyng seide, Whether the hond of Joab is with thee in alle these thingis? The womman answeride, and seide, Bi the helthe of thi soule, my lord the kyng, nether to the left side nether to the riyt side is ony thing of alle these thingis, whiche my lord the kyng spak. For thi seruaunt Joab hym silf comaundide to me, and he puttide alle these wordis in to the mouth of thin handmaide,
Wa a mande l': -Eske Joab pa nan plan sa a avè ou? Fanm lan reponn li: -Menm jan ou vivan an, monwa, pa gen anyen ki pi sèten pase sa ou di la a. Wi, monwa. Se Joab, chèf lame ou la, ki di m' tou sa pou m' fè ak tou sa pou m' di.
20 that Y schulde turne the figure of this word; for thi seruaunt Joab comaundide this thing. Forsothe thou, my lord the kyng, art wijs, as an aungel of God hath wisdom, that thou vnderstonde alle thingis on erthe.
Men, si li fè l' se paske li vle pou tout bagay sa a regle. Monwa, ou gen bon konprann tankou yon zanj Bondye, ou konnen tou sa ki ap pase nan peyi a.
21 And the kyng seide to Joab, Lo! Y am plesid, and Y haue do thi word; therfor go thou, and ayen clepe thou the child Absolon.
Pita, wa a di Joab konsa: -Mwen pral fè sa ou vle m' fè a. Ale chache jennonm yo rele Absalon an, mennen l' tounen isit la.
22 And Joab felde on his face to erthe, and worschipide, and blesside the kyng; and Joab seide, Thi seruaunt hath vndirstonde to dai, that Y foond grace in thin iyen, my lord the kyng, for thou hast do the word of thi seruaunt.
Joab tonbe ajenou devan David, li bese tèt li jouk atè. Li di: -Se pou Bondye beni ou, monwa! Jòdi a mwen konnen ou kontan avè m' vre, paske ou ban mwen sa m' mande ou la.
23 Therfor Joab roos, and yede in to Gessur, and brouyte Absolon in to Jerusalem.
Joab leve, li ale lavil Gechou, li mennen Absalon tounen lavil Jerizalèm.
24 Forsothe the kyng seide, Turne he ayen in to his hows, and se not he my face.
Men, wa a bay lòd pou Absalon pa vin rete nan palè a, paske li pa vle pou l' parèt devan li. Se konsa Absalon al rete lakay li, li pa janm parèt devan wa a.
25 Therfor Absolon turnede ayen in to his hows, and siy not the face of the kyng. Sotheli no man in al Israel was so fair as Absolon, and ful comeli; fro the step of the foot `til to the top, `no wem was in hym;
Pa t' gen pi bèl gason nan tout peyi Izrayèl la pase Absalon. Tout moun t'ap di sa. Pran depi nan cheve l' rive nan pwent zòtèy li, li pa t' gen ankenn defo.
26 and in as myche as `he clippide more the heeris, bi so myche thei wexiden more; forsothe he was clippid onys in the yeer, for the heer greuede him. And whanne he clippide the heeris, he weiyide `the heeris of his heed bi twei hundrid siclis with comyn weiyte.
Li te gen anpil cheve. Li te blije koupe yo chak lanne paske, lè yo te lonje yo te vin twò lou pou li. Lè yo peze cheve yo, yo ka rive peze senk liv dapre sistèm pèz yo sèvi kay wa a.
27 Forsothe thre sones, and a douyter, Thamar bi name, of `excellent forme weren borun to Absolon.
Absalon te gen twa pitit gason ak yon pitit fi ki te rele Tama. Tama te bèl anpil.
28 And Absolon dwellide in Jerusalem twei yeer, and he siy not the face of the kyng.
Absalon pase dezan lavil Jerizalèm san li pa janm parèt devan wa a.
29 Therfor he sente to Joab, that he schulde sende hym to the kyng; which Joab nolde come to hym. And whanne he hadde sent the secounde tyme, and Joab nolde come,
Apre sa, li voye chache Joab pou mande l' al kote wa a pou li. Men, Joab pa vini. Yon lòt fwa ankò, Absalon voye chache l'. Fwa sa a tou Joab refize vini.
30 Absolon seide to hise seruauntis, Ye knowen the feeld of Joab bisidis my feeld hauynge ripe barli; therfor go ye, and brenne ye it with fier. Therfor the seruauntis of Absolon brenten the corn with fier. And the seruauntis of Joab camen with her clothis to-rent, and seiden, The seruauntis
Lè sa a, Absalon di domestik li yo: -Gade! Nou wè jaden Joab ki toupre jaden pa m' lan. Li plante lòj. Enben, al met dife ladan l'. Y' ale, yo mete dife nan jaden Joab la.
31 of Absolon han brent the part of feeld bi fier. And Joab roos, and cam to Absolon in to his hows, and seide, Whi
Joab al lakay Absalon, li mande l': -Poukisa moun pa ou yo mete dife nan jaden m' lan?
32 han thi seruauntis brent my corn bi fier? And Absolon answeride to Joab, Y sente to thee, and bisouyte that thou schuldist come to me, and that Y schulde sende thee to the kyng, that thou schuldist seie to hym, Whi cam Y fro Gessur? It was betere to me to be there; therfor Y biseche, that Y se the face of the kyng, that if he is myndeful of my wickidnesse, sle he me.
Absalon reponn li: -Paske ou pa t' vle vini lè mwen te voye chache ou la. Mwen te bezwen ou ale bò kote wa a pou mwen pou ou mande l' sa m' te bezwen kite lavil Gechou a vin isit la fè. Pito m' te rete laba a. Koulye a, mwen ta renmen ou jwenn yon jan pou m' parèt devan wa a. Si m' antò, li mèt touye m'!
33 Joab entride to the kyng, and telde to hym. And Absolon was clepid, and entryde to the kyng, and worschipide on the face of erthe bifor hym, and the kyng kisside Absolon.
Se konsa Joab al bò kote wa David, li rapòte l' sa Absalon te di l' la. Wa a voye chache Absalon. Absalon vini, li tonbe ajenou devan wa a, li bese tèt li jouk atè. Wa resevwa l', li bo l'.
