1 Kings 21
1 And it came to pass after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, close to the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.
Alò, li te vin rive apre bagay sa yo ke Naboth, Jizreyelit la te gen yon chan rezen ki te nan Jizréel akote palè Achab, wa Samarie a.
2 And Ahab spoke to Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near to my house: and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; or, if it seemeth good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.
Achab te pale a Naboth e te di: “Ban mwen chan rezen ou an, pou m ka genyen li kòm yon jaden legim, paske li toupre lakay mwen e mwen va ba ou yon pi bon chan rezen pase l pou ranplase li. Si ou pito, mwen va ba ou pri li an lajan.”
3 And Naboth said to Ahab, The LORD forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to thee.
Men Naboth te di a Achab: “Ke SENYÈ a ta anpeche m ba ou eritaj zansèt mwen yo.”
4 And Ahab came into his house sad and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid himself down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no food.
Konsa, Achab te rive lakay li pa kontan e byen vekse akoz pawòl ke Naboth, Jizreyelit la, te pale a li a, paske li te di: “Mwen p ap bay ou eritaj zansèt mwen yo.” Li te kouche sou kabann li, te vire figi li akote e li pa t manje manje.
5 But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said to him, Why is thy spirit so sad, that thou eatest no food?
Men Jézabel, madanm li, te vin kote li e te di li: “Kijan lespri ou tèlman ba ke ou pa manje manje a?”
6 And he said to her, Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite, and said to him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it pleaseth thee, I will give thee another vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard.
Konsa, li te di li: “Akoz mwen te pale Naboth, Jizreyelit la, e mwen te di li: ‘Ban mwen chan rezen ou an pou lajan; oswa, si li fè ou kontan, mwen va ba ou yon chan rezen pou ranplase li.’ Men li te di: ‘Mwen p ap ba ou chan rezen mwen an.’”
7 And Jezebel his wife said to him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, and eat food, and let thy heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.
Jézabel, madanm li te di li: “Èske koulye a se ou ki renye sou Israël? Leve, manje pen e kite kè ou kontan. Mwen va ba ou chan rezen a Naboth, Jizreyelit la.”
8 So she wrote letters in Ahab’s name, and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters to the elders and to the nobles that were in his city, dwelling with Naboth.
Konsa, li te ekri lèt nan non Achab e te sele yo avèk so pa li pou te voye yo bay ansyen yo avèk prens ki te rete avèk Naboth nan vil pa li a.
9 And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people:
Alò, nan lèt sa yo li te ekri e te di: “Pwoklame yon jèn e fè Naboth chita sou tèt a pèp la.
10 And set two men, worthless men, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.
Fè chita dèzòm sanzave devan li pou fè temwayaj kont li pou di: ‘Ou te modi Bondye avèk wa a.’ Konsa, pran li deyò e lapide li jiskaske li mouri.”
11 And the men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Jezebel had sent to them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them.
Konsa, mesye lavil li yo, ansyen avèk prens ki te rete la yo, te fè jan Jézabel te voye di yo a, jis jan ke li te ekri nan lèt ke li te voye yo.
12 They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
Yo te pwoklame yon jèn e te fè Naboth chita sou tèt a pèp la.
13 And there came in two men, worthless men, and sat before him: and the worthless men witnessed against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth blasphemed God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.
Epi dèzòm sanzave te antre ladann e te chita devan li. Epi de mesye sanzave yo te fè temwayaj kont li, menm kont Naboth, devan pèp la, e yo te di: “Naboth te modi Bondye avèk wa a.” Konsa, yo te pran l mennen deyò lavil la e yo te lapide l jiska lanmò avèk kout wòch.
14 Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, Naboth is stoned, and is dead.
Epi yo te voye kote Jézabel e te di: “Naboth te lapide e fin mouri.”
15 And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.
Lè Jézabel te tande ke Naboth te lapide e te mouri, Jézabel te di a Achab: “Leve, pran posesyon a chan rezen Naboth la, Jizreyelit la, ke li te refize ba ou pou lajan an; paske Naboth pa vivan, men li mouri.”
16 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab arose to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.
Lè Achab te tande ke Naboth te mouri, Achab te leve desann kote chan rezen a Naboth la, Jizreyelit la, pou l te pran posesyon li.
17 And the word of the LORD came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
Epi pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote Élie, Tichbit la, e te di:
18 Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who is in Samaria: behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, where he is gone down to possess it.
“Leve, ale desann rankontre Achab, wa Israël la, ki Samarie. Gade byen, li nan chan rezen Naboth kote li te desann pou pran posesyon li.
19 And thou shalt speak to him, saying, Thus saith the LORD, Hast thou killed, and also taken possession? And thou shalt speak to him, saying, Thus saith the LORD, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine.
Ou va pale li e di: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: Èske ou te touye e anplis pran posesyon?’” Epi ou va pale avèk li pou di: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Nan plas kote chen yo te niche san Naboth la, chen yo va niche san pa ou menm.’”
20 And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O my enemy? And he answered, I have found thee: because thou hast sold thyself to work evil in the sight of the LORD.
Achab te di a Élie: “Èske ou vin jwenn mwen, O lènmi mwen?” Epi li te reponn: “Mwen te jwenn ou akoz ou te vann tèt ou pou fè mechanste nan zye SENYÈ a.
21 Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will take away thy posterity, and will cut off from Ahab the males, and him that is shut up and left in Israel,
Gade byen, Mwen va mennen mal sou ou, Mwen va bale fè ou disparèt e Mwen va koupe retire sou Achab tout gason, ni esklav, ni lib nan tout Israël.
22 And will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation with which thou hast provoked me to anger, and made Israel to sin.
Mwen va fè lakay ou tankou lakay Jéroboam, fis a Nebath la ak tankou lakay Baescha, fis Achija a, akoz pwovokasyon avèk sila li te pwovoke M a lakòlè a, e akoz ou te fè Israël peche.”
23 And of Jezebel also spoke the LORD, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel.
De Jézabel osi SENYÈ a te pale, e te di: “Chen yo va manje Jézabel nan distri Jizréel la.
24 Him that dieth of Ahab in the city the dogs shall eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat.
Sila ki apatyen a Achab, ki mouri nan vil la, chen va manje yo e sila ki mouri nan chan an, zwazo syèl yo va manje yo.”
25 But there was none like Ahab, who sold himself to work wickedness in the sight of the LORD, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.
Anverite, pa t gen moun tankou Achab ki te vann tèt li pou fè mal devan SENYÈ a, akoz madanm li, Jézabel te chofe li.
26 And he did very abominably in following idols, according to all things as did the Amorites, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
Li te aji byen abominab nan swiv zidòl li yo, selon tout sa ke Amoreyen yo te fè, ke SENYÈ a te mete deyò devan fis Israël yo.
27 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard those words, that he tore his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.
Li te vin rive ke lè Achab te tande pawòl sa yo, li te chire rad li e li te mete twal sak sou li pou te fè jèn. Li te kouche nan twal sak e li te vin mache avèk chagren nèt.
28 And the word of the LORD came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
Alò, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Élie, Tichbit la, e te di:
29 Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himself before me? because he humbleth himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days: but in his son’s days will I bring the evil upon his house.
“Èske ou wè kijan Achab te vin imilye li devan Mwen? Akoz li te imilye li devan mwen, Mwen p ap mennen mal la nan jou li yo; men Mwen va mennen mal la sou lakay li nan jou a fis li yo.”
