2 Samyèl 21
1 Alò, te gen yon gwo grangou nan jou a David yo pandan twazan, ane apre ane. Epi David te chache prezans a SENYÈ a. SENYÈ a te di: “Se akoz Saül ak kay sanglan li an, akoz li te mete Gabawonit yo a lanmò.”
There was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the LORD. The LORD said, "It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put to death the Gibeonites."
2 Pou sa, wa a te rele Gabawonit yo pou te pale yo. (Alò, Gabawonit yo pa t nan fis Israël yo men yo te nan retay Amoreyen yo e fis Israël yo te fè yon akò avèk yo. Men Saül te chache touye yo nan zèl li genyen pou fis a Juda yo avèk Israël yo.)
The king called the Gibeonites, and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn to them: and Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah.)
3 Konsa, David te di a Gabawonit yo: “Kisa mwen ta dwe fè pou nou? Epi kijan mwen kapab fè ekspiyasyon, pou nou kapab vin beni eritaj SENYÈ a?”
And David said to the Gibeonites, "What shall I do for you? And with what shall I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of the LORD?"
4 Alò, Gabawonit yo te di li: “Nou pa sou afè ajan, ni lò avèk Saül, ni lakay li, ni pou nou ta mete okenn moun a lanmò an Israël.” Epi li te di: “Mwen va fè pou nou nenpòt sa ke nou mande.”
The Gibeonites said to him, "It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul, or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel." He said, "Whatever you say, that will I do for you."
5 Pou sa, yo te di a wa a: “Nonm ki te vin manje nou an e ki te fè plan pou detwi nou nèt la rache nou soti nan lizyè Israël la,
They said to the king, "The man who consumed us, and who devised against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 kite sèt mesye soti nan fis li yo vin bay a nou menm. E nou va pann yo devan SENYÈ a nan Guibea pou Saül, sila ki te chwazi pa SENYÈ a.” Epi wa a te di: “Mwen va bay yo.”
let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of the LORD." The king said, "I will give them."
7 Men wa a te bay pwotèj a Méphiboscheth, fis a Jonathan an, fis a Saül la, akoz sèman a SENYÈ a ki te fèt antre yo, antre David ak fis a Saül la, Jonathan.
But the king spared Mippibaal, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the LORD's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 Konsa, wa a te pran de fis a Ritspa yo avèk fi a Ajja a, Armoni ak Méphiboscheth ke li te fè pou Saül la, senk fis a Mérab yo, fi a Saül la, ke li te fè pou Adriel, fis a Barzillaï a, Meyolayit la;
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mippibaal; and the five sons of Merob the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 Epi li te livre yo nan men a Gabawonit yo e yo te pandye yo nan mòn nan devan SENYÈ a, jiskaske yo sèt te tonbe ansanm. Yo te mete a lanmò nan premye jou a rekòlt la, nan kòmansman rekòlt lòj la.
He delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in the mountain before the LORD, and all seven of them fell together. They were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Epi Rizpa, fi a Ajja a te pran twal sak e te ouvri li sou wòch la, soti nan kòmansman rekòlt la jiskaske li te fè lapli sou yo soti nan syèl la. Li pa t kite ni zwazo syèl yo vin poze sou yo nan lajounen, ni bèt chan yo pandan lannwit.
Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water was poured on them from the sky. She allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the animals of the field by night.
11 Lè li te pale a David sa ke Rizpa, fi a Ajja a, ti mennaj a Saül la te fè a,
It was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the secondary wife of Saul, had done.
12 alò, David te ale pran zo a Saül ak zo a Jonathan, fis li a soti nan men a mesye Jabès-Galaad la, ki te vòlè yo nan laplas Beth-Schan kote Filisten yo te pandye yo nan jou ke Filisten yo te frape Saül nan Guilboa a.
David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa;
13 Li te mennen zo a Saül ak zo a Jonathan yo monte, fis li soti la e yo te ranmase zo a sila ki te pandye yo.
and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son: and they gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14 Yo te antere zo a Saül yo avèk Jonathan, fis li nan peyi Benjamin nan Tséla, nan tonm a Kis, papa li. Konsa, yo te fè tout sa ke wa a te kòmande yo. Apre sa, Bondye te satisfè akoz lapriyè pou peyi a.
They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king commanded. After that God was entreated for the land.
15 Alò, lè Filisten yo te fè lagè ankò avèk Israël, David te desann avèk sèvitè li yo. Epi pandan yo t ap goumen kont Filisten yo, David te vin bouke.
The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines, and David became exhausted.
16 Epi Jischbi-Benob ki te pami desandan a jeyan yo, avèk yon lans ki te peze twa-san sik an bwonz, te gen yon nepe nèf nan senti l e li te gen entansyon pou l ta touye David.
And Dodo son of Joash, one of the descendants of the Raphah, captured him. His spear weighed three hundred bronze shekels, and he was girded with a new sword, and he thought he could kill David.
17 Men Abischaï, fis a Tseruja a te ede li, li te frape Filisten an pou te touye li. Epi mesye David yo te fè ve a li e te di: “Wa David, ou p ap sòti avèk nou ankò nan batay la pou ou pa vin etenn lanp Israël la.”
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore, saying, "You must not go out to battle with us again, so that you do not extinguish the lamp of Israel."
18 Alò, li te vin rive apre sa ke te gen lagè ankò avèk Filisten yo nan Gob. Epi Sibbecaï, Oushatit la te frape Saph, ki te pami desandan a jeyan yo.
It came to pass after this, that there was again war with the Philistines at Gezer. Then Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Saph, a descendant of the Raphah.
19 Te gen gè avèk Filisten yo ankò Gob e Elchanan, fis a Jaaré-Oreguim nan Bethléhem te touye Goliath, moun Gath la. Shaf lans li an te tankou travès lan a yon machin yo konn tise.
There was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jair the Bethlehemite killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
20 Te gen lagè avèk Gath ankò, kote te gen yon mesye gran tay avèk sis dwèt nan chak men ak sis zòtèy nan chak pye, venn-kat antou. Li menm osi te ne de jeyan yo.
There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.
21 Lè li te leve tèt li kont Israël, Jonathan, fis a Schimea a, frè David la, te frape li.
When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimeah, David's brother, killed him.
22 Se kat sila yo ki te ne de jeyan nan Gath yo, e yo te tonbe pa men David e pa men a sèvitè li yo.
These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
