1 Samuel 4

1 And Samuel spake vnto all Israel: and Israel went out against the Philistims to battel and pitched beside Eben-ezer: and the Philistims pitched in Aphek.

Konsa, pawòl a Samuel te rive a tout Israël. Alò, Israël te sòti pou rankontre Filisten yo nan batay. Yo te fè kan akote Ében-Ézer pandan Filisten yo te rete Aphek.

2 And the Philistims put themselues in aray against Israel: and when they ioyned the battell, Israel was smitten downe before the Philistims: who slewe of the armie in the fielde about foure thousand men.

Filisten yo te parèt nan ranje batay yo pou rankontre Israël. Lè batay la te gaye, Israël te vin bat devan Filisten yo ki te touye anviwon kat-mil òm sou chan batay la.

3 So when the people were come into the campe, the Elders of Israel said, Wherefore hath the Lord smitten vs this day before ye Philistims? let vs bring the Arke of the couenant of the Lord out of Shiloh vnto vs, that when it commeth among vs, it may saue vs out of the hande of our enemies.

Lè pèp la te antre nan kan an, ansyen a Israël yo te di: “Poukisa SENYÈ a bat nou konsa jodi a devan Filisten yo? Annou pran pou nou menm lach akò a pou l soti Silo. Konsa, li kapab vini pami nou e livre nou sòti anba pouvwa lènmi nou yo.”

4 Then the people sent to Shiloh, and brought from thence the Arke of the couenant of the Lord of hostes, who dwelleth betweene the Cherubims: and there were the two sonnes of Eli, Hophni, and Phinehas, with the Arke of the couenant of God.

Epi pèp la te voye Silo e soti la, yo te pote lach akò SENYÈ dèzame a, ki chita anwo cheriben yo. Epi de fis a Éli yo: Hophni avèk Phinées, te la avèk lach akò Bondye a.

5 And when the Arke of the couenant of the Lord came into the hoste, all Israel shouted a mightie shoute, so that the earth rang againe.

Pandan lach akò SENYÈ a te antre nan kan an, tout Israël te kriye avèk yon gwo kri, jiskaske tè a te vin sone.

6 And when the Philistims heard the noyse of the shoute, they said, What meaneth the sound of this mightie shoute in the host of the Ebrewes? and they vnderstoode, that the Arke of the Lord was come into the hoste.

Lè Filisten yo te tande gwo kri sila a, yo te di: “Kisa sa vle di? Gwo kri sila a nan kan Ebre yo?” Epi yo te vin konprann ke lach SENYÈ a te antre nan kan an.

7 And the Philistims were afraide, and saide, God is come into the hoste: therefore saide they, Wo vnto vs: for it hath not bene so heretofore.

Filisten yo te krent, paske yo te di: “Bondye vin antre nan kan an.” Konsa, yo te di: “Malè a nou menm! Paske anyen parèy a sa pa t konn fèt avan.

8 Wo vnto vs, who shall deliuer vs out of the hande of these mightie Gods? these are the Gods that smote the Egyptians with all the plagues in the wildernes.

Malè a nou menm! Kilès k ap delivre nou nan men a dye pwisan sa yo? Sila yo se dye ki te frape Ejipsyen yo avèk tout kalite fleyo nan dezè a.

9 Be strong and play the men, O Philistims, that ye be not seruants vnto the Ebrewes, as they haue serued you: be valiant therefore, and fight.

Pran kouraj e mete gason sou nou, O Filisten yo, oswa nou va devni esklav a Ebre yo jis jan ke yo te esklav nou an. Pou sa, mete gason sou nou pou nou goumen!”

10 And the Philistims fought, and Israel was smitten downe, and fled euery man into his tent: and there was an exceeding great slaughter: for there fell of Israel thirtie thousand footemen.

Konsa, Filisten yo te goumen e Israël te bat. Tout mesye yo te sove ale rive nan pwòp tant yo. Masak la te byen gwo, e te vin tonbe an Israël trant-mil sòlda a pye.

11 And the Arke of God was taken, and the two sonnes of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas died.

Anplis, lach Bondye a te sezi pran; epi de fis Éli yo, Hophni avèk Phinées te mouri.

12 And there ranne a man of Beniamin out of the armie, and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothes rent, and earth vpon his head.

Konsa yon mesye a Benjamin te kouri sòti nan chan batay yo pou te parèt Silo nan menm jou a avèk rad li chire ak pousyè sou figi li.

13 And when hee came, loe, Eli sate vpon a seate by the wayside, wayting: for his heart feared for the Arke of God and when the man came into the citie to tell it, all the citie cried out.

Lè li te vini, vwala, Éli te chita sou chèz li akote wout la pou veye tann, akoz kè li t ap tranble pou lach SENYÈ a. Konsa, mesye a te vin pale sa nan vil la e tout vil la te kriye fò.

14 And when Eli heard the noyse of the crying, he sayd, What meaneth this noyse of the tumult? and the man came in hastily, and tolde Eli.

Lè Éli te tande bri kriye a, li te di: “Kisa bri kriye sa a vle di?” Epi mesye a te vini avèk vitès e li te pale Éli.

15 (Nowe Eli was fourescore and eighteene yeere olde, and his eyes were dimme that hee could not see)

Alò, Éli te gen laj a katrevendizuit ane, zye li te fikse epi li pa t kab wè.

16 And the man sayd vnto Eli, I came from the armie, and I fled this day out of the hoste: and he sayd, What thing is done, my sonne?

Mesye a te di a Éli: “Mwen se sila ki te sòti nan chan batay la. Vrèman, mwen te chape sòti nan chan batay la jodi a.” Epi Éli te mande: “Kijan tout bagay te mache, fis mwen?”

17 Then the messenger answered and sayd, Israel is fled before the Philistims, and there hath bene also a great slaughter among the people: and moreouer thy two sonnes, Hophni and Phinehas are dead, and the Arke of God is taken.

Konsa, sila ki te pote nouvèl la te reponn: “Israël te sove ale devan Filisten yo, e te genyen osi, yon gwo masak pami pèp la. Anplis, de fis ou yo, Hophni avèk Phinées mouri, e lach Bondye a te kaptire.”

18 And when he had made mention of the Arke of God, Eli fell from his seate backward by the side of the gate, and his necke was broken, and he dyed: for he was an olde man and heauie: and he had iudged Israel fourtie yeeres.

“Lè li te mansyone lach Bondye a, Éli te tonbe sou chèz li pa dèyè akote pòtay la. Kou li te kase, e li te mouri, paske li te fin granmoun e li te gra.” Konsa, li te jije Israël pandan karant ane.

19 And his daughter in lawe Phinehas wife was with childe neere her trauell: and when she heard the report that the Arke of God was taken, and that her father in lawe and her husband were dead, she bowed her selfe, and trauailed: for her paines came vpon her.

Alò, bèlfi li, madanm a Phinées te ansent e prèt pou akouche. Lè li te tande nouvèl ke lach Bondye a te pran an kaptivite e ke bòpè li avèk mari li te mouri, li te bese sou jenou li e te akouche, paske doulè li te vin rive sou li.

20 And about the time of her death, the women that stoode about her, sayd vnto her, Feare not: for thou hast borne a sonne: but she answered not, nor regarded it.

Epi nan lè li t ap mouri an, fanm ki te kanpe akote li a te di li: “Pa pè, paske ou te bay nesans a yon fis.” Men li pa t reponn li ni li pa t okipe li.

21 And she named the childe Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel, because the Arke of God was taken, and because of her father in lawe and her husband.

Konsa, li te rele gason an I-Kabod, e te di: “Laglwa Israël pati!” akoz lach Bondye a te pran an kaptivite e akoz bòpè li avèk mari li.

22 She sayde againe, The glory is departed from Israel: for the Arke of God is taken.

Li te di: “Laglwa gen tan pati soti an Israël; paske lach Bondye a te pran an kaptivite.”
