2 Samuel 18
1 Therfor Dauid, whanne the puple `was biholdun, ordeynede tribunes and centuriouns on hem.
Wa David sanble tout moun li yo. Li chwazi chèf pou chak rejiman mil sòlda ak pou chak divizyon san sòlda.
2 And he yaf the thridde part of the puple vndur the hond of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Abisai, sone of Saruye, brother of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Ethai, that was of Geth. And the kyng seide to the puple, Also Y schal go out with you.
Lèfini, li separe lame a an twa pòsyon, yon pòsyon sou lòd Joab, yon pòsyon sou lòd Abichayi, frè Joab la, yon pòsyon sou lòd Itayi, moun lavil Gat. Apre sa, wa a di yo: -Mwen prale avè nou tou.
3 And the puple answeride, Thou schalt not go out; for whether we fleen, it schal not perteyne to hem bi greet werk of vs; whether half the part fallith doun of vs, thei schulen not recke ynow, for thou art rekynyd for ten thousynde; therfor it is betere, that thou be to vs in the citee in stronge hold.
Men sòlda yo reponn li: -Non. Ou pa prale avè nou. Sa p'ap di lènmi nou yo anyen si nou kouri pou yo. Si mwatye nan nou mouri, sa p'ap di yo anyen tou. Men ou menm pou kont pa ou, ou vo dimil (10.000) sòlda tankou nou. Se poutèt sa, pito ou rete isit nan lavil la, kote ou ka jwenn konkou pou voye ban nou.
4 `To whiche the kyng seide, Y schal do this, that semeth riytful to you. Therfor the kyng stood bisidis the yate, and the puple yede out bi her cumpenyes, bi hundridis and bi thousyndis.
W'a reponn yo: -Bon! M'ap fè sa nou wè ki pi bon an. Apre sa, li al kanpe bò pòtay lavil la, pandan lame a t'ap soti, divizyon apre divizyon, rejiman apre rejiman.
5 And the king comaundide to Joab, and to Abisai, and Ethai, and seyde, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon. And al the puple herde the kyng comaundinge to alle the princes for Absolon.
Wa a bay Joab, Abichayi ak Itayi lòd sa a: -Tanpri, fè sa pou mwen. Al dousman ak jennonm yo rele Absalon an tande! Tout sòlda yo te tande lè David t'ap bay chèf yo lòd sa a.
6 Therfor the puple yede out in to the feeld ayens Israel; and the batel was maad in the forest of Effraym.
Lame David la soti al goumen ak moun peyi Izrayèl yo. Batay la te fèt nan rakbwa Efrayim lan.
7 And the puple of Israel was slayn there of the oost of Dauid, and a greet sleyng of twenti thousynde was maad in that dai.
Lame David la bat lame Absalon an byen bat. Jou sa a, lame Absalon an pèdi venmil (20.000) sòlda.
8 Forsothe the batel was scaterid there on the face of al erthe, and many mo weren of the puple whiche the forest wastide, than thei whiche the swerd deuourid in that dai.
Batay la gaye nan tout peyi a. Jou sa a, te gen plis moun ki mouri nan rakbwa a pase nan batay la menm.
9 Sotheli it bifeld, that Absalon sittinge on a mule, cam ayens the seruauntis of Dauid; and whanne the mule hadde entrid vndur a thicke ook, and greet, the heed of Absolon cleuyde to the ook; and whanne he was hangid bitwixe heuene and erthe, the mule, on which he sat, passide.
Absalon al kontre ak kèk sòlda nan lame David la. Li te moute sou yon milèt. Antan l'ap pase anba yon gwo pyebwa, cheve li yo al pran nan yon branch, milèt la menm pa rete, li kouri al fè wout li. Absalon rete pandye anlè.
10 Sotheli `sum man siy this, and telde to Joab, and seide, Y siy Absolon hange on an ook.
Yonn nan moun David yo wè sa, li al bay Joab nouvèl la. Li di li: -Mwen wè Absalon pandye nan yon pyebwa.
11 And Joab seide to the man that `hadde telde to hym, If thou siyest, whi persidist thou not hym to the erthe, and Y schulde haue youe `to thee ten siclis of siluer, and a girdil?
Joab di nonm lan: -Ou wè l'? Poukisa ou pa touye l' la menm? M' ta fè ou kado dis pyès an ajan ak yon sentiwon.
12 And he seide to Joab, Thouy thou paiedist in myn hondis a thousynde platis of siluer, Y nolde sende myn hond in to the sone of the king; for the while we herden, the kyng comaundide to thee, and to Abisai, and to Ethai, and seide, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon.
Men nonm lan reponn Joab: -Ou ta mèt ban mwen mil (1000) pyès an ajan la nan pla men m', mwen pa t'ap leve men m' sou pitit gason wa a. Nou tout nou te tande lòd wa a te ba ou ansanm ak Abichayi ak Itayi. Li te di: Tanpri, fè sa pou mwen. Pa kite anyen rive Absalon, pitit mwen an.
13 But and if Y hadde do ayens my lijf hardili, this myyte not be hid fro the kyng, and thou woldist stonde on the contrarye side.
Si m' te pran pòz mwen pa t' tande anyen, epi m' te touye l', wa a t'ap toujou konn sa. Paske li toujou konn tou sa k'ap pase. Lè sa a, ou pa ta janm pran defans mwen.
14 And Joab seide, Not as thou wolt, `Absolon schal be kept, but Y schal asaile hym bifor thee. Therfore Joab took thre speris in his hond, and fitchide tho in the herte of Absolon. And whanne he spraulide, yit cleuynge in the ook,
Joab di li: -M'ap pèdi twòp tan la a avè ou. Li pran twa baton ak pwent yo byen fèt, li al plante yo nan kè Absalon ki te vivan toujou kote li te pandye nan pyebwa a.
15 ten yonge squieris of Joab runnen, and smytiden, and killiden hym.
Apre sa, dis jenn sòlda ki t'ap pote zam Joab yo tonbe sou Absalon, yo fin touye l'.
16 Sotheli Joab sownede with a clarioun, and withhelde the puple, lest it pursuede Israel fleynge, and he wolde spare the multitude.
Lèfini, Joab fè kònen twonpèt la pou yo sispann batay la. Se konsa sòlda David yo kite rès sòlda Izrayèl yo al fè wout yo.
17 And thei token Absolon, and castiden forth him in to a greet dich in the forest, and baren togidere a ful greet heep of stoonys on hym; forsothe al Israel fledde in to his tabernaclis.
Yo pran kadav Absalon an, yo jete l' nan yon twou nan rakbwa a. Lèfini, yo kouvri l' ak yon gwo pil wòch. Tout rès moun peyi Izrayèl yo te kouri al lakay yo.
18 Forsothe Absolon, while he lyuyde yit, hadde reisid to hym a memorial, which is in the valey of the kyng; for he seide, Y haue no sone, and this schal be the mynde of my name; and he clepide `the memorial bi his name, and it is clepid the Hond, `that is, werk, of Absolon `til to this dai.
Depi anvan l' te mouri, Absalon te fè bati yon bèl kavo pou li nan fon Wa a, paske li t'ap di li pa t' gen pitit gason pou leve non li. Jouk jòdi a yo rele kavo a moniman Absalon an.
19 Forsothe Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide, Y schal renne, and Y schal telle to the kyng, that the Lord hath maad doom to hym of the hond of hise enemyes.
Akimaz, pitit gason Zadòk la, di Joab konsa: -Kite m' kouri al fè wa a konnen jan Seyè a rann li jistis, jan li delivre l' anba men lènmi l' yo.
20 To whom Joab seide, Thou schalt not be messanger in this dai, but thou schalt telle in another dai; I nyle that thou telle to dai, for the sone of the kyng is deed.
Joab reponn li: -Non. Jòdi a pa gen bon nouvèl pou ou pote. Yon lòt jou va gen bon nouvèl pou ou pote. Men jòdi a, ou p'ap pote ankenn nouvèl bay wa a, paske se pitit gason wa a menm ki mouri.
21 And Joab seide to Chusi, Go thou, and telle to the kyng tho thingis that thou hast seyn. Chusi worschypide Joab, and ran.
Joab rele yon sòlda, moun peyi Letiopi, li di l': -Ou menm, al rakonte wa a tou sa ou te wè ak je ou. Sòlda a bese tèt devan Joab. Lèfini, li kouri, li ale.
22 Eft Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide to Joab, What lettith, if also Y renne aftir Chusi? And Joab seide to hym, What wolt thou renne, my sone? Come thou hidur, thou schalt not be a berere of good message.
Akimaz menm t'ap kenbe se pou l' ale, li di: -Nenpòt sa ki rive m', kite m' ale pote nouvèl la tou dèyè moun Letiopi a. Joab mande l': -Poukisa ou vle fè sa, pitit mwen? Yo p'ap ba ou anyen pou yon nouvèl konsa.
23 Which answeride, `What sotheli if Y schal renne? And Joab seide to hym, Renn thou. Therfor Achymaas ran bi the weie of schortnesse, `and sped, and passide Chusi.
Akimaz reponn: -Sa pa fè anyen. Mwen vle ale. Lè sa a, Joab di l': -Ale non! Se konsa Akimaz kouri ale, li pran wout ki pase nan plenn Jouden an, li pran devan moun peyi Letiopi a.
24 Forsothe Dauid sat bitwixe twei yatis; sotheli the spiere, that was in the hiynesse of the yate on the wal, reiside the iyen, and siy a man aloone rennynge;
David menm te chita ant pòtay deyò a ak pòtay anndan an. Yon faksyonnè te moute sou teras anwo miray la, li te kanpe sou tèt pòtay la. Li leve je l', li wè yon nonm ki t'ap kouri vini.
25 and the spiere criede, and schewide to the kyng. And the kyng seide to hym, If he is aloone, good message is in his mouth.
Li rele pou avèti wa a. Wa a di l': -Si li pou kont li, se bon nouvèl l'ap pote. Mesaje a t'ap pwoche toujou
26 Sotheli while he hastide, and neiyede neer, the spiere siy another man rennynge; and the spiere criede `in the hiynesse, and seide, Another man rennynge aloone apperith to me. And the kyng seide to hym, And this man is a good messanger.
lè faksyonnè a wè yon lòt moun ki t'ap kouri vini tou. Li pale ak nonm ki t'ap fè pòs bò pòtay la, li di l' konsa: -Men yon lòt moun k'ap vini pou kont li tou. Wa a reponn: -Sa a tou, se bon nouvèl l'ap pote.
27 Sotheli the spiere seide, Y biholde the rennyng of the formere, as the rennyng of Achymaas, sone of Sadoch. And the kyng seide, He is a good man, and he cometh bryngynge a good message.
Faksyonnè a pran ankò: -Sou jan l'ap kouri a, gen lè premye a se Akimaz, pitit gason Zadòk la. Wa a di: -Se yon bon gason. Ou mèt sèten se bon nouvèl l'ap pote.
28 Forsothe Achymaas criede, and seide to the kyng, Heil kyng! And he worschipide the kyng lowli bifor hym to erthe, and seide, Blessid be thi Lord God, that closide togidere the men, that reisyden her hondis ayens my lord the kyng.
Akimaz pwoche, li di wa a bonjou. Lèfini, li tonbe ajenou devan wa a, li bese tèt li jouk atè, li di: -Monwa, lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye ou la, paske li lage tout moun ki te leve dèyè ou yo nan men ou!
29 And the kyng seide, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? And Achymaas seide, Y siy, `that is, Y herde, a great noise, whanne Joab, thi seruaunt, thou kyng, sente me thi seruaunt; Y kan noon othir thing.
David mande l': -Ban m' nouvèl ti Absalon an non. Li byen? Akimaz reponn li: -Monwa, lè Joab, moun pa wa a, te voye m' lan, mwen wè te gen yon gwo kouri. Men, m' pa konnen sa ki te genyen.
30 To whom the kyng seide, Passe thou, and stonde here. And whanne he hadde passid, and stood, Chusi apperide;
Wa a di l': -Bon. Kanpe bò la a. Tann mwen. Akimaz mete kò l' sou kote, li rete ap tann.
31 and he cam and seide, My lord the kyng, Y brynge good message; for the Lord hath demed to dai for thee of the hond of alle men that risiden ayens thee.
Apre sa, nonm peyi Letiopi a vin rive. Li di wa a: -Monwa, mwen gen bon nouvèl pou ou! Jòdi a, Seyè a rann ou jistis. Li wete ou anba men tout moun ki te leve dèyè ou yo.
32 Forsothe the kyng seide to Chusi, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? To whom Chusi answeride, and seide, The enemyes of my lord the kyng, and alle men that risiden ayens hym in to yuel, be maad as the child.
Wa a mande l': -Ban m' nouvèl ti Absalon an non. Li byen? Nonm peyi Letiopi a reponn, li di l': -Se pou sa ki rive jenn gason sa a rive tout lènmi monwa yo ansanm ak tout lòt moun k'ap leve dèyè ou pou fè ou mal.
33 Therfor the kyng was sory, and stiede in to the soler of the yate, and wepte, and spak thus goynge, My sone, Absolon! Absolon, my sone! who yyueth to me, that Y die for thee? Absolon, my sone! my sone, Absolon!
Lè wa a pran nouvèl la, sa te twòp pou li. Li moute nan chanm li anwo sou tèt pòtay la pou l' kriye. Antan li prale konsa, li t'ap rele: -Absalon! Absalon, pitit mwen! Absalon! Poukisa se pa mwen ki te mouri nan plas ou! Woy! Absalon, pitit mwen! Absalon, pitit mwen!
