Kings I 15
1 And Samuel said to Saul, The Lord sent me to anoint you king over Israel: and now hear the voice of the Lord.
Samyèl di Sayil: -Se mwen menm Seyè a te voye pou vide lwil sou tèt ou pou ou te ka wa sou pèp Izrayèl la. Koulye a, koute pawòl Seyè a.
2 Thus said the Lord of hosts, Now will I take vengeance for what Amalec did to Israel, when he met him in the way as he came up out of Egypt.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a voye di ou: Li pral pini moun Amalèk yo paske yo te kenbe tèt ak pèp Izrayèl la lè yo t'ap moute soti peyi Lejip.
3 And now go, and you shall strike Amalec and Hierim and all that belongs to him, and you shall not save anything of him alive, but you shall utterly destroy him: and you shall devote him and all his to [destruction], and you shall spare nothing belonging to him; and you shall kill both man and woman, and infant and suckling, and calf and sheep, and camel and ass.
Koulye a, leve al atake moun Amalèk yo. W'a pran tou sa ki pou yo, w'a ofri yo bay Seyè a. Ou p'ap gen pitye pou pesonn lakay yo: N'a touye fanm kou gason, timoun ak ti bebe nan tete, ata bèf, mouton, chamo ak bourik.
4 And Saul summoned the people, and he numbered them in Galgala, four hundred thousand regular troops, and Juda thirty thousand regular troops.
Sayil rele tout sòlda li yo. Li pase yo enspeksyon lavil Telayim. Te gen desanmil (200.000) sòlda apye ki te moun Izrayèl ak dimil (10.000) sòlda ki te moun Jida.
5 And Saul came to the cities of Amalec, and laid wait in the valley.
Lèfini, li desann toupre yonn nan lavil moun Amalèk yo. L' al kache kò li nan yon ravin chèch.
6 And Saul said to the Kinite, Go, and depart out of the midst of the Amalekites, lest I put you with them; for you dealt mercifully with the children of Israel when they went up out of Egypt. So the Kinite departed from the midst of Amalec.
Apre sa, li voye avèti moun Kayen yo: -Wete kò nou! Kite moun Amalèk yo pou kont yo, pou nou pa touye nou ansanm ak yo. Paske nou menm moun Kayen, nou te aji byen ak pèp Izrayèl la lè yo t'ap tounen soti nan peyi Lejip la. Se konsa moun Kayen yo pati, yo wete kò yo nan mitan moun Amalèk yo.
7 And Saul struck Amalec from Evilat to Sur fronting Egypt.
Sayil bat moun Amalèk yo depi lavil Avila rive Chou sou bò solèy leve peyi Lejip.
8 And he took Agag the king of Amalec alive, and he killed all the people and Hierim with the edge of the sword.
Li pran Agag, wa moun Amalèk yo, tou vivan, men li touye tout rès moun yo tankou yon ofrann pou Bondye.
9 And Saul and all the people saved Agag alive, and the best of the flocks, and of the herds, and of the fruits, of the vineyards, and of all the good things; and they would not destroy them: but every worthless and refuse thing they destroyed.
Men Sayil ak sòlda li yo pa t' touye Agag. Yo pa t' touye pi bèl mouton yo ni pi bèl bèf yo, ni yo pa t' touye ankenn bèt ki te bon. Men, yo touye tout bèt ki te lèd, tout bèt ki te mèg tankou yon ofrann pou Bondye.
10 And the word of the Lord came to Samuel, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Samyèl, li di l' konsa:
11 I have repented that I have made Saul to be king: for he has turned back from following me, and has not kept my word. And Samuel was grieved, and cried to the Lord all night.
-Mwen règrèt mwen te fè Sayil wa. Li vire do ban mwen. Li pa fè sa mwen ba li lòd fè. Samyèl pa t' kontan, li fè tout nwit lan ap lapriyè nan pye Seyè a.
12 And Samuel rose early and went to meet Israel in the morning, and it was told Saul, saying, Samuel has come to Carmel, and he has raised up help for himself: and he turned his chariot, and came down to Galgala to Saul; and, behold, he was offering up a whole burnt offering to the Lord, the chief of the spoils which he brought out of Amalec.
Nan denmen maten, bonè bonè, li soti al chache Sayil. Yo vin di Samyèl Sayil t' ale lavil Kamèl, kote li fè bati yon moniman pou tèt li, apre sa, li tounen isit, li desann lavil Gilgal.
13 And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said to him, Blessed [are] you of the Lord: I have performed all that the Lord said.
Samyèl al jwenn Sayil. Sayil vin di l' bonjou: -Se pou Seyè a beni ou! Mwen fè tou sa li te ban m' lòd fè.
14 And Samuel said, What then [is] the bleating of this flock in my ears, and the sound of the oxen which I hear?
Samyèl mande l': -Ki tout bri mouton ak bèf m'ap tande nan zòrèy mwen konsa?
15 And Saul said, I have brought them out of Amalec, that which the people preserved, even the best of the sheep, and of the cattle, that it might be sacrificed to the Lord your God, and the rest have I utterly destroyed.
Sayil reponn li: -Anhan! Se bèt sòlda mwen yo pran kay moun Amalèk yo. Yo pran pi bèl mouton yo ak pi bèl bèf yo, yo pa touye yo pou yo te ka ofri yo bay Seyè a, Bondye ou la. Men, yo touye tout rès yo nèt tankou yon ofrann pou Bondye.
16 And Samuel said to Saul, Stay, and I will tell you what the Lord has said to me this night: and he said to him, Say on.
Samyèl di l' konsa: -Pe bouch ou, tande! Kite m' di ou sa Seyè a te vin di m' lannwit lan. Sayil di li: -Pale non!
17 And Samuel said to Saul, Are you not little in his eyes, [though] a leader of one of the tribes of Israel? and [yet] the Lord anointed you to be king over Israel.
Samyèl di li: -Atout yon lè ou te rekonèt ou pa t' anyen, jòdi a se pa ou menm ki chèf tout branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la? Se pa Seyè a menm ki te chwazi ou pou wa pèp Izrayèl la?
18 And the Lord sent you on a journey, and said to you, Go, and utterly destroy: you shall kill the sinners against me, [even] the Amalekites; and you shall war against them until you have consumed them.
Li voye ou ale avèk lòd espre pou ou te touye tout moun Amalèk yo, bann moun sa yo k'ap fè sa ki mal, tankou yon ofrann pou Bondye. Se pou ou te goumen ak yo jouk ou te fin touye yo tout.
19 And why did not you listen to the voice of the Lord, but did haste to fasten upon the spoils, and did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord?
Poukisa ou pa koute sa Seyè a te di ou? Poukisa ou lage kò ou sou sa ou te pran nan men lènmi ou yo, epi ou fè sa ki pa fè Seyè a plezi.
20 And Saul said to Samuel, Because I listened to the voice of the people: yet I went the way by which the Lord sent me, and I brought Agag the king of Amalec, and I destroyed Amalec.
Sayil reponn Samyèl li di li: -Mwen fè tou sa Seyè a te di m' fè! Mwen mache dapre lòd li. Mwen pran Agag, wa moun Amalèk yo, mwen tounen avè l'. Mwen touye tout rès moun Amalèk yo tankou yon ofrann pou Bondye.
21 But the people took of the spoils the best flocks and herds [out] of that which was destroyed, to sacrifice before the Lord our God in Galgal.
Men sòlda mwen yo pa t' touye bèl mouton ak pi bèl bèf yo te jwenn nan sa yo te pran lakay lènmi sa yo. Yo pote yo isit la, lavil Gilgal, pou yo te ka ofri yo sou lotèl la bay Seyè a, Bondye ou la.
22 And Samuel said, Does the Lord take pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in hearing the words of the Lord? behold, obedience [is] better than a good sacrifice, and hearkening than the fat of rams.
Lè sa a, Samyèl di l' konsa: -Dapre ou, kisa Seyè a pito: yon moun k'ap ofri bèt pou boule nan dife, k'ap fè tout kalite ofrann bèt pou li, osinon yon moun k'ap fè sa li di l' fè a? Konn sa tande! Pito yon moun fè sa Seyè a di l' fè a pase pou l' touye bèt ofri pou Bondye. Pito yon moun soumèt devan Bondye pase pou l' ofri bèl belye chatre pou Seyè a.
23 For sin is [as] divination; idols bring on pain and grief. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord also shall reject you from being king over Israel.
Dezobeyi Bondye nan sa l' mande ou fè a se menm bagay ak fè maji. Fè tèt di ak Bondye se menm bagay ak sèvi zidòl. Enben, ou voye pawòl Bondye a jete, Seyè a wete ou nan plas wa a, li voye ou jete tou. Li pa gen anyen pou l' wè avè ou ankò!
24 And Saul said to Samuel, I have sinned, in that I have transgressed the word of the Lord and your direction; for I feared the people, and I listened to their voice.
Sayil reponn li: -Mwen peche, mwen pa fè sa Seyè a te ban m' lòd fè. Mwen pa t' koute pawòl ou te di m' lan. Se pè mwen te pè mesye m' yo kifè m' fè sa yo te vle fè a.
25 And now remove, I pray you, my sin, and turn back with me, and I will worship the Lord your God.
Men koulye a, tanpri, padonnen peche m' lan. Tounen avè m' pou m' ka sèvi Seyè a.
26 And Samuel said to Saul, I will not turn back with you, for you have rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord will reject you from being king over Israel.
Samyèl di li: -Non, mwen p'ap tounen avè ou. Paske ou voye pawòl Bondye a jete, Seyè a wete ou nan plas wa a, li voye ou jete tou.
27 And Samuel turned his face to depart, and Saul caught hold of the skirt of his garment, and tore it.
Samyèl fè sa li vire pou l' ale, Sayil kenbe rad li, rad la chire.
28 And Samuel said to him, The Lord has tore your kingdom from Israel out of your hand this day, and will give it to your neighbor who is better than you.
Samyèl di li: -Seyè a rache gouvènman peyi Izrayèl la nan men ou jòdi a. Li rale l' nan men ou. Li pral renmèt li bay yon lòt moun ki pi bon pase ou.
29 And Israel shall be divided to two: and [God] will not turn nor repent, for he is not as a man to repent.
Bondye ki wa pèp Izrayèl la pa konn manti, ni li pa konn chanje lide. Se pa moun li ye. Li p'ap chanje pawòl.
30 And Saul said, I have sinned; yet honor me, I pray you, before the elders of Israel, and before my people; and turn back with me, and I will worship the Lord your God.
Sayil reponn li: -Mwen peche, se vre! Men, pa fè m' wont devan tout chèf pèp mwen an, devan tout pèp Izrayèl la. Tounen avè m' pou m' ka fè sèvis pou Seyè a, Bondye ou la.
31 So Samuel turned back after Saul, and he worshipped the Lord.
Se konsa Samyèl tounen avèk Sayil, epi Sayil fè sèvis pou Seyè a.
32 And Samuel said, Bring me Agag the king of Amalec: and Agag came to him trembling; and Agag said Is death thus bitter?
Apre sa, Samyèl di konsa: -Mennen Agag, wa moun Amalèk yo, ban mwen. Agag vin jwenn li. Li t'ap tranble tèlman li te pè. Li t'ap di nan kè l': Ala bagay di, mezanmi, se lanmò!
33 And Samuel said to Agag, As your sword has bereaved women of their children, so shall your mother be made childless among women: and Samuel killed Agag before the Lord in Galgal.
Samyèl di li: -Avèk nepe ou, ou te fè anpil manman pèdi pitit yo. Koulye a, nan tout fanm ki sou latè, manman ou pral pèdi pitit pa li tou. Epi li koupe Agag an moso la devan lotèl Seyè a lavil Gilgal.
34 And Samuel departed to Armathaim, and Saul went up to his house at Gabaa.
Lèfini, Samyèl desann lavil Rama. Sayil menm moute al lakay li lavil Gibeya.
35 And Samuel did not see Saul again till the day of his death, for Samuel mourned after Saul, and the Lord repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
Depi lè sa a, Samyèl pa janm wè wa Sayil ankò jouk li mouri. Men, sa te fè l' lapenn anpil pou Sayil. Seyè a menm te règrèt deske li te fè Sayil wa pèp Izrayèl la.
