2 Samuel 21
1 And there was a famine in the days of David for three years successively: and David consulted the oracle of the Lord. And the Lord said: It is for Saul, and his bloody house, because he slew the Gabaonites.
Sou rèy wa David, vin gen yon gwo grangou pandan twazan yonn apre lòt. Lè sa a, David al mande Seyè a sa k'ap pase. Seyè a reponn li: -Se krim Sayil ak fanmi l' yo te fè ki lakòz grangou sa a, paske yo te sasinen moun lavil Gabawon yo.
2 Then the king, calling for the Gabaonites, said to them: (Now the Gabaonites were not of the children of Israel, but the remains of the Amorrhites: I and the children of Israel had sworn to them, and Saul sought to slay them out of zeal, as it were for the children of Israel and Juda: )
Moun lavil Gabawon yo pa t' fanmi moun Izrayèl yo. Se yon ti rès nan moun peyi Amori moun Izrayèl yo te pran angajman yo t'ap toujou pwoteje. Men, Sayil te sitèlman cho pou defann enterè moun fanmi Izrayèl ak fanmi Jida yo, li te soti pou l' te detwi yo.
3 David therefore said to the Gabaonites: What shall I do for you? and what shall be the atonement for you, that you may bless the inheritance of the Lord?
Se konsa David voye chache yo, li mande yo: -Kisa m' ka fè pou nou? Ki jan pou m' repare tou sa nou sibi pou nou ka rale benediksyon sou pèp Seyè a?
4 And the Gabaonites said to him: We have no contest about silver and gold, but against Saul and against his house: neither do we desire that any man be slain of Israel. And the king said to them: What will you then that I should do for you?
Yo reponn li: -Sa nou gen pou n' regle ak Sayil ansanm ak rès fanmi li an, se pa yon keksyon lò ak ajan, ni nou pa ta renmen touye pesonn nan peyi Izrayèl. David mande yo: -Manyè di m' sa nou vle m' fè pou nou.
5 And they said to the king: The man that crushed us and oppressed us unjustly, we must destroy in such manner that there be not so much as one left of his stock in all the coasts of Israel.
Yo reponn li: -Sayil te soti pou disparèt nou. Li te fè lide pou l' te touye nou nèt pou l' pa kite yonn nan nou vivan nan tout peyi Izrayèl la.
6 Let seven men of his children be delivered unto us, that we may crucify them to the Lord in Gabaa of Saul, once the chosen of the Lord. And the king said: I will give them.
Enben, renmèt nou sèt gason nan fanmi li an pou nou ka pann yo devan Seyè a nan lavil Gabawon, lavil Sayil la menm, nonm Seyè a te chwazi pou wa a. David reponn yo: -M'ap ban nou yo.
7 And the king spared Miphiboseth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the oath of the Lord, that had been between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
David pa ba yo Mefibochèt, pitit Jonatan an, pitit pitit Sayil la, poutèt sèman li menm ak Jonatan, pitit Sayil la, yo te fè devan Bondye.
8 So the king took the two sons of Respha the daughter of Aia, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni, and Miphiboseth: and the five sons of Michol the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Hadriel the son of Berzellai, that was of Molathi:
Men, li pran Amoni ak Mefibochèt, de pitit gason Rispa, pitit Ayi a, te fè pou Sayil, ansanm ak senk pitit gason Merab, pitit Sayil la, te fè pou Adriyèl, pitit gason Bazilayi, moun lavil Meola a.
9 And gave them into the hands of the Gabaonites: and they crucified them on a hill before the Lord: and these seven died together in the first days of the harvest, when the barley began to be reaped.
Li lage yo nan men moun Gabawon yo ki pann yo sou yon ti mòn devan Seyè a. Yo tou lesèt mouri ansanm. Lè sa a, se te fen sezon prentan, yo te fèk konmanse rekòt lòj la.
10 And Respha the daughter of Aia took haircloth, and spread it under her upon the rock from the beginning of the harvest, till water dropped upon them out of heaven: and suffered neither the birds to tear them by day, nor the beasts by night.
Apre sa, Rispa, pitit Ayi a, pran yon rad sak, li vlope kò l' ladan l', li al chita sou wòch kote kadav yo te ye a. Li rete la depi nan konmansman rekòt la jouk sezon lapli a rive. Lajounen li t'ap chase zwazo ki te vle vin poze sou kadav yo. Lannwit li t'ap kouri dèyè bèt nan bwa ki te vle vin devore yo.
11 And it was told David, what Respha the daughter of Aia, the concubine of Saul, had done.
Y' al rapòte bay David sa Rispa, yonn nan fanm kay Sayil yo, t'ap fè a.
12 And David went, and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabes Galaad, who had stolen them from the street of Bethsan, where the Philistines had hanged them when they had slain Saul in Gelboe.
David al pran zosman Sayil ansanm ak zosman Jonatan nan men moun lavil Jabès yo nan peyi Galarad. (Moun sa yo te al vòlò kadav Sayil ak Jonatan sou plas piblik lavil Bèt-Chean kote moun Filisti yo te pann yo lè yo te fin touye Sayil sou mòn Gilboa a.)
13 And he brought from thence the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, and they gathered up the bones of them that were crucified,
David pran zosman Sayil ansanm ak zosman Jonatan yo, li ranmase zosman sèt mesye yo te pann yo tou.
14 And they buried them with the bones of Saul, and of Jonathan his son in the land of Benjamin, in the side, in the sepulchre of Cis his father: and they did all that the king had commanded, and God shewed mercy again to the land after these things.
Lèfini, yo antere yo ansanm ak zosman Sayil ak zosman Jonatan yo nan tonm Kich, papa Sayil la, lavil Zela nan pòsyon peyi ki pou branch fanmi Benjamen yo. Yo fè tou sa wa a te bay lòd fè a. Apre sa, Bondye tande lapriyè yo pou peyi a.
15 And the Philistines made war again against Israel, and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. And David growing faint,
Lagè pete ankò ant moun Filisti yo ak moun peyi Izrayèl yo. David desann ak sòlda li yo, li al goumen ak moun Filisti yo. Pandan y'ap goumen konsa, David santi l' bouke.
16 Jesbibenob, who was of the race of Arapha, the iron of whose spear weighed three hundred ounces, being girded with a new sword, attempted to kill David.
Yon potorik gason bèl wotè yo te rele Ichbibenòb, moun laras Arafa yo, fè lide pou l' touye David. Li te gen yon frenn an kwiv ki te peze sèt liv edmi konsa ak yon nepe tou nèf mare nan ren li.
17 And Abisai the son of Sarvia rescued him, and striking the Philistine killed him. Then David’s men swore unto him, saying: Thou shalt go no more out with us to battle, lest thou put out the lamp of Israel.
Men, Abichayi, pitit gason Sewouja a, vin pote wa a sekou. Li atake moun Filisti a, li touye l'. Lè sa a, moun David yo fè wa a pwomèt pou li pa janm vin nan lagè avè yo ankò. Yo di l': -Ou se espwa pèp Izrayèl la. Nou pa vle pèdi ou.
18 There was also a second battle in Gob against the Philistines: then Sobochai of Husathi slew Saph of the race of Arapha of the family of the giants.
Apre sa, te gen yon lòt batay ankò avè moun Filisti yo lavil Gòb. Lè sa a, Sibekayi, moun lavil Ousa, touye Saf, yon lòt potorik gason nan ras moun Arafa yo.
19 And there was a third battle in Gob against the Philistines, in which Adeodatus the son of the Forrest an embroiderer of Bethlehem slew Goliath the Gethite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
Pandan yon lòt batay avèk moun Filisti yo ankò nan menm lavil Gòb la, Elanan, pitit gason Jari, moun lavil Betleyèm, touye Golyat, yon moun lavil Gat. Frenn Golyat la te gen yon manch menm gwosè ak yon gwo manch pilon.
20 A fourth battle was in Geth. where there was a man of great stature, that had six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, four and twenty in all, and he was of the race of Arapha.
vin gen yon lòt batay ankò lavil Gat. Lè sa a, te gen yon sòlda bèl wotè ki te gen sis dwèt nan chak men, sis zòtèy nan chak pye. Se te yonn nan ras moun Arafa yo.
21 And he reproached Israel: and Jonathan the son of Samae the brother of David slew him.
Li t'ap pase moun pèp Izrayèl yo nan betiz. Jonatan, pitit gason Chimeya, frè David la, touye l'.
22 These four were born of Arapha in Geth, and they fell by the hand of David, and of his servants.
Kat sòlda peyi Filisti sa yo te moun bèl wotè, potorik gason, nan ras moun Arafa yo lavil Gat. David ak moun pa li yo touye yo.
