Kings I 13
1 And Saul chooses for himself three thousand men of the men of Israel: and there were with Saul two thousand who were in Machmas, and in mount Baethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gabaa of Benjamin: and he sent the rest of the people every man to his tent.
Sayil te majè lè yo te fè l' wa. Li pase kèk tan ap gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
Sayil chwazi twamil (3000) gason nan pèp Izrayèl la, epi li voye tout rès yo al lakay yo. Li pran demil gason, li fè yo rete avè l' lavil Mikmas ak nan mòn Betèl la. Lòt mil yo te avèk Jonatan, pitit gason Sayil la, lavil Gibeya nan peyi moun Benjamen yo.
3 And Jonathan struck Nasib the Philistine that lived in the hill; and the Philistines hear of it, and Saul sounds the trumpet through all the land, saying, The servants have despised [us].
Jonatan touye chèf moun Filisti yo ki te rete lavil Gibeya a. Moun Filisti yo vin konn sa. Sayil voye moun kònen twonpèt nan tout peyi a pou avèti pèp ebre a.
4 And all Israel heard say, Saul has struck Nasib the Philistine; now Israel had been put to shame before the Philistines; and the children of Israel went up after Saul in Galgala.
Nouvèl la gaye nan tout pèp Izrayèl la: Sayil te touye chèf moun Filisti yo. Koulye a moun Filisti yo pa vle wè pèp Izrayèl la. Se konsa tout pèp la vin jwenn Sayil lavil Gilgal, yo kanpe avè l'.
5 And the Philistines gather together to war with Israel; and then come up against Israel thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand by the seashore for multitude: and they come up, and encamp in Machmas, opposite Baethoron southward.
Moun Filisti yo menm, bò pa yo tou, sanble pou y' al atake pèp Izrayèl la. Yo te gen trantmil (30.000) cha lagè, simil (6000) kavalye. Pou sòlda apye menm, moun pa t' ka konte sa. Ou ta di grenn sab bò lanmè. Yo moute al pran pozisyon bò lavil Mikmas, sou bò solèy leve lavil Bètavenn.
6 And the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait so that they could not draw near, and the people hid themselves in caves, and sheepfolds, and rocks, and ditches, and pits.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo wè zafè a pa t' bon pou yo menm. Moun Filisti yo te atake moun pèp Izrayèl yo ak fòs. Pèp Izrayèl la vin pèdi espwa. Sa pa t' bon menm pou yo. Gen ladan yo ki al kache nan gwòt, nan twou wòch, dèyè gwo wòch, nan pi, nan twou anba tè.
7 And they that went over went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Galaad: and Saul was yet in Galgala, and all the people followed after him in amazement.
Genyen ki menm janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, al nan peyi moun Gad yo ak moun Galarad yo. Sayil menm te lavil Gilgal toujou. Tout moun ki te avè l' yo t'ap tranble sitèlman yo te pè.
8 And he continued seven days for the appointed testimony, as Samuel told him, and Samuel came not to Galgala, and his people were dispersed from him.
Dapre dat Samyèl te fikse ba li a, li rete la sèt jou ap tann Samyèl. Sèt jou yo pase, Samyèl pa vin lavil Gilgal. Pèp la konmanse vire do yo kite Sayil.
9 And Saul said, Bring hither [victims], that I may offer whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings: and he offered the whole burnt offering.
Lè Sayil wè sa, li di yo: -Mennen bèt pou boule nan dife yo ban mwen ansanm ak lòt ofrann pou mande Bondye padon yo. Epi li fè ofrann pou boule nan dife a.
10 And it came to pass when he had finished offering the whole burnt offering, that Samuel arrived, and Saul went out to meet him, [and] to bless him.
Li t'ap fini fè sèvis ofrann pou boule nan dife a lè Samyèl parèt. Sayil al kontre l' pou di l' bonjou.
11 And Samuel said, What have you done? and Saul said, Because I saw how the people were scattered from me, and you was not present as you purposed according to the set time of the days, and the Philistines were gathered to Machmas.
Samyèl di li: -Kisa ou fè konsa? Sayil reponn li: -Mwen wè pèp la t'ap pati kite m'. Ou menm, ou pa t' vini lè ou te di ou t'ap vini an. Lèfini, moun Filisti yo t'ap sanble bò lavil Mikmas la.
12 Then I said, Now will the Philistines come down to me to Galgala, and I have not sought the face of the Lord: so I forced myself and offered the whole burnt offering.
Mwen di nan kè m': Men moun Filisti yo pral vin atake m' isit la lavil Gilgal, epi mwen pa fè anyen pou mete Seyè a bò kote m'. Se konsa mwen pran sou kont mwen pou m' fè ofrann bèt pou boule nan dife pou Seyè a.
13 And Samuel said to Saul, You have done foolishly; for you have not kept my command, which the Lord commanded you, as now the Lord would have confirmed your kingdom over Israel for ever.
Samyèl di Sayil konsa: -Se bagay moun fou ou fè la a! Ou pa swiv lòd Seyè a, Bondye ou la, te ba ou. Si ou te swiv lòd li, li ta kite ou gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la, lèfini pitit ou yo ta ranplase ou jouk sa kaba.
14 But now your kingdom shall not stand to you, and the Lord shall seek for himself a man after his own heart; and the Lord shall appoint him to be a ruler over his people, because you have not kept all that the Lord commanded you.
Men koulye a, rèy ou pa la pou lontan. Seyè a pral chache yon lòt moun ki va fè tou sa l'a vle l' fè, l'a mete l' chèf sou pèp li a, tou sa paske ou pa t' swiv lòd Seyè a te ba ou a.
15 And Samuel arose, and departed from Galgala, and the remnant of the people went after Saul to meet [him] after the men of war, when they had come out of Galgala to Gabaa of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were found with him, about six hundred men.
Epi Samyèl leve, li kite lavil Gilgal l' al fè wout li. Tout rès pèp la pran swiv Sayil ki leve al jwenn sòlda li yo. Yo pati kite Gilgal, y' ale lavil Gibeya nan peyi moun Benjamen yo. Sayil fè enspeksyon lame ki te avè l' la. Te gen sisan (600) sòlda konsa.
16 And Saul and Jonathan his son, and the people that were found with them, halted in Gabaa, of Benjamin; and they wept: and the Philistines had encamped in Machmas.
Sayil rete nan peyi moun Benjamen yo ansanm ak Jonatan, pitit gason l' lan, ak moun ki te avè l' yo. Moun Filisti yo menm pran pozisyon lavil Mikmas.
17 And men came forth to destroy out of the land of the Philistines in three companies; one company turning by the way of Gophera toward the land of Sogal,
Sòlda Filisti yo soti kote yo te ye a pou y' al kraze brize. Yo fè twa gwoup. Yon gwoup pran chemen ki mennen lavil Ofra nan peyi Chwal la.
18 and another company turning the way of Baethoron, and another company turning by the way of Gabae that turns aside to Gai of Sabim.
Yon lòt gwoup pran chemen ki mennen lavil Bètowon, ak yon lòt gwoup pran chemen ki mennen sou fwontyè a, kote moun ka donminen tout fon Zeboyim lan ale nan dezè a.
19 And there was not found a smith in all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make themselves sword or spear.
Lè sa a, nan tan sa a, nan tout peyi Izrayèl la yo pa t' ka jwenn fòjon paske moun Filisti yo te soti pou pa kite ebre yo fè ni nepe ni lans fè.
20 And all Israel went down to the Land of the Philistines to forge every one his reaping-hook and his tool, and every one his axe and his sickle.
Se konsa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo te blije al lakay moun Filisti yo pou fè dan chari yo, wou yo, rach yo ak kouto digo yo.
21 And it was near the time of vintage: and their tools were [valued at] three shekels for a plowshare, and there was the same rate for the axe and the sickle.
Moun Filisti yo te mande yo yon ti pyès ajan pou file chak dan rach epi pou fè pwent frenn yo, de ti pyès ajan pou fè dan chari yo ak pwent wou yo.
22 And it came to pass in the days of the war of Machmas, that there was not a sword or spear found in the hand of all the people, that were with Saul and Jonathan; but with Saul and Jonathan his son was there found.
Se sa ki fè, lè jou batay la rive, pa t' gen yonn nan mesye ki te avèk Sayil ak Jonatan yo ki te gen yon nepe osinon yon lans fè. Sèl Sayil ak Jonatan, pitit gason l' lan, te gen yonn pou yo chak.
23 And there went out some from the camp of the Philistines to the place beyond Machmas.
Moun Filisti yo voye yon ganizon al defann pas Mikmas la.
