2 Samuel 1
1 And it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, that David abode two days in Ziklag.
Apre li te fin kraze moun Amalèk yo, David tounen lavil Ziklag. Lè sa a Sayil te deja mouri. David menm te lavil Ziklag depi de jou.
2 And it came to pass on the third day, that behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his garments rent, and earth upon his head; and as soon as he came to David, he fell to the earth and did obeisance.
Sou twazyèm jou a, yon nonm rive soti nan kan Sayil la. Rad sou li te chire, li te gen pousyè sou tèt li pou fè wè jan li te nan gwo lapenn. Lè li rive bò kote David, li lage kò l' atè, li bese tèt li byen ba devan li.
3 And David said to him, Whence comest thou? And he said to him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.
David mande l': -Kote ou soti? Nonm lan reponn: -Mwen chape kò m' soti nan kan moun Izrayèl yo.
4 And David said to him, What has taken place? I pray thee, tell me. And he said that the people had fled from the battle, and many of the people also had fallen and died, and that Saul and Jonathan his son were dead also.
David di li: -Manyè di m' sa ki pase. Nonm lan reponn: -Lame pèp Izrayèl la kouri pandan batay la te mare. Gen anpil sòlda ki mouri. Sayil ak Jonatan, pitit gason l' lan, mouri tou.
5 And David said to the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?
David mande nonm ki te pote nouvèl la: -Ki jan ou fè konnen Sayil ak Jonatan, pitit li a, mouri?
6 And the young man that told him said, I happened by chance to be upon mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul leaned on his spear; and behold, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.
Nonm lan reponn: -Mwen t'ap pase konsa sou mòn Gilboa a lè mwen wè Sayil apiye sou frenn li pou l' pa tonbe atè. Cha lagè lènmi yo ak kavalye yo te prèt pou rive sou li.
7 And he looked behind him, and saw me, and called to me. And I said, Here am I.
Lè sa a, li voye je l' gade, li wè m', epi li rele m' vini. Mwen reponn li: Men mwen, monwa.
8 And he said to me, Who art thou? And I said to him, I am an Amalekite.
Li mande m' ki moun mwen ye. Mwen reponn li se yon moun Amalèk mwen ye.
9 He said to me again, Stand, I pray thee, over me, and slay me; for anguish has seized me; for my life is yet whole in me.
Lè sa a, li mande m' pou m' pwoche bò kote l' pou m' touye l', paske li te santi tèt li ap vire, atout li te gen tout konesans li sou li.
10 So I stood over him, and put him to death, for I knew that he would not live after his fall; and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither to my lord.
Se konsa, mwen pwoche bò kote l', mwen touye l' paske mwen te konnen tonbe li te tonbe li t'ap toujou mouri. Apre sa, mwen pran kouwòn ki te sou tèt li ak braslè ki te nan ponyèt li, mwen pote yo ba ou, mèt.
11 Then David took hold of his garments and rent them; and all the men that were with him [did] likewise.
David chire rad ki te sou li sitèlman sa te fè li lapenn. Tout moun ki te la avè l' yo fè menm bagay la tou.
12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Jehovah, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.
Yo kriye, yo pran gwo lapenn pou Sayil, pou Jonatan, pitit li a, pou lame Seyè a ak pou pèp Izrayèl la, paske te gen anpil ladan yo ki te mouri nan lagè a. Yo rete san manje jouk aswè.
13 And David said to the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he said, I am the son of an Amalekite stranger.
Apre sa, David mande jenn gason ki te pote nouvèl la: -Ki moun ou ye? Jenn gason an reponn: -Mwen se pitit yonn nan moun Amalèk ki vin rete nan peyi a.
14 And David said to him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thy hand to destroy Jehovah's anointed?
David di l' konsa: -Bon. Ki jan ou fè pa t' pè leve men ou sou wa Bondye chwazi a pou ou rive touye l'?
15 Then David called one of the young men and said, Draw near, [and] fall on him. And he smote him that he died.
David rele yonn nan moun li yo. Li di l' konsa: -Vini non! Touye msye. Nonm lan bay moun Amalèk la yon sèl kou, li touye l' frèt.
16 And David said to him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth has testified against thee, saying, I have slain Jehovah's anointed.
David menm te di moun Amalèk la: -Se ou menm ki reskonsab sa ki rive ou la a. Se ou menm ki kondannen tèt ou lè ou di ak bouch ou se ou menm ki touye wa Bondye te chwazi a.
17 And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son;
David pran chante pou plenn lanmò Sayil ak Jonatan, pitit Sayil la.
18 and he bade them teach the children of Judah [the song of] the bow. Behold, it is written in the book of Jasher: —
Li bay lòd pou yo moutre chante a bay tout moun Jida yo. Se chante banza yo. Yo jwenn li ekri nan Liv Moun ki mache dwat la.
19 The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen!
O Izrayèl, tout gwo chèf ou yo mouri sou mòn yo. Yo desann tout vanyan sòlda ou yo.
20 Tell [it] not in Gath, carry not the tidings in the streets of Ashkelon; Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
Pa kite nouvèl la rive nan lavil Gad. Pa gaye nouvèl la nan lavil Askalon, pou medam peyi Filisti yo pa fè fèt, pou pitit fi moun sa yo ki pa sèvi Bondye pèp Izrayèl la pa leve danse.
21 Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, no rain upon you, nor fields of heave-offerings! For there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, The shield of Saul, [as] not anointed with oil.
Nou menm mòn Giboa yo, se pou nou rete san yon grenn lapli, san yon degout lawouze. Piga jaden janm pouse sou flan mòn nou yo! Paske se la yo trennen nan labou plak fè pwotèj sòlda yo, plak fè pwotèj wa Sayil la ki p'ap janm fwote ak lwil ankò.
22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan turned not back, And the sword of Saul returned not empty.
Jonatan pa t' janm fè bak toutotan li pa tranpe flèch li yo nan san lènmi l' yo. Sayil pa t' janm tounen toutotan li pa t' plonje nepe l' nan vant vanyan sòlda lènmi l' yo.
23 Saul and Jonathan, beloved and pleasant in their lives, Even in their death were not divided; They were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions.
Sayil ak Jonatan, yonn te renmen lòt! Toujou ansanm nan lavi, ansanm ansanm tou nan lanmò! Pi veyatif pase malfini, pi vanyan pase lyon.
24 Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet with splendour, Who put ornaments of gold upon your apparel.
Medam pèp Izrayèl yo, rele pou Sayil! Li te konn ban nou bèl rad koulè violèt ki koute byen chè, ak bèl bijou an lò pou mete sou nou.
25 How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! Jonathan is slain upon thy high places.
Vanyan sòlda yo mouri nan lagè! Jonatan mouri, li blayi atè plat sou ti mòn yo!
26 I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant wast thou unto me; Thy love to me was wonderful, passing women's love.
Mwen gen gwo lapenn pou ou, Jonatan, frè mwen. Jan mwen te renmen ou sa a! Jan ou menm ou te renmen m', se pa pale. Zanmitay sa a te pi bon pou mwen lontan pase renmen ankenn fanm ta ka gen pou mwen!
27 How are the mighty fallen, and the instruments of war perished!
Vanyan sòlda yo mouri! Tout zam lagè yo pa vo anyen koulye a!
