1 Istwa 20
1 Li te vin rive nan prentan, nan lè ke wa yo konn sòti fè lagè, ke Joab te mennen sòti lame a, e te ravaje peyi a fis a Ammon yo. Li te vin fè syèj kont Rabba. Men David te rete Jérusalem. Joab te frape Rabba e te boulvèse li nèt.
Forsothe it was doon after the ende of a yeer, in that tyme wherinne kyngis ben wont to go forth to batels, Joab gederide the oost, and the strengthe of chyualrie, and he wastide the lond of the sones of Amon, and yede, and bisegide Rabath; forsothe Dauid dwellide in Jerusalem, whanne Joab smoot Rabath, and distriede it.
2 David te retire kouwòn a wa pa yo soti sou tèt li. Li te twouve ke li te peze yon talan lò, e te gen pyè presye yo ladann. Konsa, yo te plase li sou tèt a David. Konsa, li te mennen fè sòti piyaj nan vil la, yon trè gran kantite.
Forsothe Dauid took the coroun of Melchon fro his heed, and foond therynne the weiyt of gold a talent, and moost precious iemmes, and he made therof a diademe to hym silf; also he took ful many spuylis of the citee.
3 Li te mennen fè sòti moun ki te ladann yo, te koupe yo avèk si ak enstriman file e avèk rach. Konsa David te fè a tout vil ki te pou fis a Ammon yo. Alò David avèk tout moun yo te retounen Jérusalem.
Sotheli he ledde out the puple that was therynne, and made breris, `ethir instrumentis bi whiche cornes ben brokun, and sleddis, and irone charis, to passe on hem, so that alle men weren kit in to dyuerse partis, and weren al to-brokun; Dauid dide thus to alle the `cytees of the sones of Amon, and turnede ayen with al his puple in to Jerusalem.
4 Alò li te vin rive apre sa ke lagè te vin pete nan Guézer avèk Filisten yo. Konsa, Sibbecaï, Oushatit la, te touye Sippaï, youn nan desandan a jeyan yo, e yo te vin soumèt yo.
Aftir these thingis a batel was maad in Gazer ayens Filisteis, wherynne Sobochai Vsachites slow Saphai of the kyn of Raphym, and mekide hem.
5 Te gen lagè avèk Filisten yo ankò e Elchanan, fis a Jaïr a, te touye frè a Goliath la, Gatit la. Shaf a lans li an te gwo tankou shaf aparèy tise a.
Also another batel was don ayens Filisteis, in which a man youun of God, the sone of forest, a man of Bethleem, killide Goliath of Geth, the brother of giauntis, of whos schaft the tre was as the beem of webbis.
6 Ankò, te gen lagè avèk Gath kote te gen yon nonm gran wotè ki te genyen venn-kat dwèt ak zòtèy, sis avèk sis e li menm, osi, te yon desandan a jeyan yo.
But also another batel bifelde in Geth, in which a ful long man was, hauynge sixe fyngris, that is, togidere foure and twenti, and he was gendrid of the generacioun of Raphaym;
7 Lè li te voye defi bay Israël, Jonathan, fis a Schimea a, frè David la, te touye li.
he blasfemyde Israel, and Jonathan, the sone of Samaa, brother of Dauid, killide hym.
8 Mesye sila yo te jeyan Gath yo e yo te tonbe pa lamen David, ak lamen sèvitè li yo.
These ben the sones of Raphaym in Geth, that felden doun in the hond of Dauid and of hise seruauntis.
