1 Samyèl 24
Haitian Creole Version
24 ¶ Lè Sayil tounen soti fè lagè ak moun Filisti yo, yo vin di l' David te nan dezè Angedi a.
2 Sayil pran twamil (3000) sòlda nan pèp Izrayèl la, sa ki te fò anpil nan fè lagè. Epi li pati al chache David ak mesye l' yo sou solèy leve Wòch Kabrit mawon yo.
3 Li rive devan yon gwòt ki te toupre yon pak mouton bò wout la. Li antre nan gwòt la al fè bezwen li. David menm te kache nan fon gwòt la ansanm ak mesye l' yo.
4 Mesye yo di David konsa: -Men chans ou, men okazyon Seyè a te di l'ap ba ou a. Seyè a te di: L'ap lage lènmi ou la nan men ou, w'a fè sa ou vle avè l'. David leve, li mache tou dousman, li koupe yon moso nan rad Sayil san Sayil pa konn sa.
5 Men apre sa, konsyans David repwoche l' pou ke rad Sayil li te koupe a.
6 Li di moun li yo: -Mande Bondye padon! Mwen p'ap fè bagay konsa sou mèt mwen, moun Bondye chwazi pou wa a. Mwen p'ap janm leve men mwen sou li, paske se Seyè a menm ki te chwazi l' pou wa.
7 David pale ak mesye l' yo pou yo wete lide konsa nan tèt yo. Li pa kite yo fè Sayil anyen. Sayil leve, li soti nan gwòt la, li mache al fè wout li.
8 Lè sa a, David soti dèyè l', li rele l': -Monwa! Monwa! Sayil vire gade dèyè li. David tonbe ajenou, li bese tèt li jouk atè.
9 ¶ Epi li di: -Poukisa w'ap koute moun k'ap di ou m'ap chache fè malè sou ou?
10 Gade, jòdi a ou wè ak je ou ki jan Seyè a te lage ou nan men m' anndan gwòt la. Gen moun ki di m' se pou m' te touye ou. Men, kè m' fè m' mal pou ou. Mwen di mwen p'ap janm leve men m' sou mèt mwen, paske se Seyè a menm ki te chwazi ou pou wa.
11 Gade, papa mwen! Men yon moso ke rad ou nan men m'! Mwen koupe moso ke rad ou, men mwen pa t' touye ou. Koulye a ou konnen, ou wè mwen pa gen anyen dèyè tèt mwen, mwen pa gen ankenn lide mechanste nan tèt mwen. Mwen pa fè ou anyen ki mal. Se ou menm k'ap chache touye m'.
12 Se pou Seyè a jije ant nou de a kilès ki antò! Se pou Seyè a pini ou pou sa w'ap fè m' la a, paske mwen menm, mwen p'ap janm leve men m' sou ou.
13 Jan pwovèb granmoun lontan yo di: Se moun mechan ki fè mechanste! Men mwen p'ap leve men m' sou ou.
14 Dèyè ki moun wa pèp Izrayèl la ye konsa? Dèyè ki moun l'ap kouri konsa? Dèyè yon chen mouri? Dèyè yon ti pis?
15 Seyè a va sèvi nou jij! L'a jije ant nou de a kilès ki antò! Se pou l' mete bouch nan zafè a, pou l' pran defans mwen, pou l' delivre m' anba men ou.
16 ¶ Lè David fin pale, Sayil di: -Se pa vwa David, pitit gason m' lan, sa? Epi li pran kriye.
17 Li di David konsa: -Ou gen rezon. Se mwen ki antò! Ou te aji byen avè m'. Se mwen menm ki te aji mal avè ou.
18 Jòdi a ankò, ou fè m' wè se byen ou vle fè pou mwen paske, atout Seyè a lage m' nan men ou, ou pa touye m'.
19 Lè yon moun jwenn okazyon pou l' mete men l' sou lènmi l', èske l'ap kite l' al fè wout li san li pa fè l' anyen? Bondye va beni ou pou sa ou fè pou mwen jòdi a.
20 Koulye a, mwen konnen ou gen pou ou wa vre. Avèk ou menm wa pèp Izrayèl la, gouvènman an ap kanpe fèm.
21 Men tanpri, pwomèt mwen, nan non Seyè a, ou p'ap touye pitit mwen yo lè m'a mouri, pou non m' pa disparèt nan fanmi papa m'.
22 David pwomèt Sayil li p'ap fè sa. Apre sa, Sayil al lakay li. David menm tounen nan kachèt li ansanm ak mesye pa l' yo.

1 Samuel 24
New International Version
David Spares Saul’s Life
24 [a]After Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, he was told, “David is in the Desert of En Gedi.(A)” 2 So Saul took three thousand able young men from all Israel and set out to look(B) for David and his men near the Crags of the Wild Goats.
3 He came to the sheep pens along the way; a cave(C) was there, and Saul went in to relieve(D) himself. David and his men were far back in the cave. 4 The men said, “This is the day the Lord spoke(E) of when he said[b] to you, ‘I will give your enemy into your hands for you to deal with as you wish.’”(F) Then David crept up unnoticed and cut(G) off a corner of Saul’s robe.
5 Afterward, David was conscience-stricken(H) for having cut off a corner of his robe. 6 He said to his men, “The Lord forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the Lord’s anointed,(I) or lay my hand on him; for he is the anointed of the Lord.” 7 With these words David sharply rebuked his men and did not allow them to attack Saul. And Saul left the cave and went his way.
8 Then David went out of the cave and called out to Saul, “My lord the king!” When Saul looked behind him, David bowed down and prostrated himself with his face to the ground.(J) 9 He said to Saul, “Why do you listen(K) when men say, ‘David is bent on harming(L) you’? 10 This day you have seen with your own eyes how the Lord delivered you into my hands in the cave. Some urged me to kill you, but I spared(M) you; I said, ‘I will not lay my hand on my lord, because he is the Lord’s anointed.’ 11 See, my father, look at this piece of your robe in my hand! I cut(N) off the corner of your robe but did not kill you. See that there is nothing in my hand to indicate that I am guilty(O) of wrongdoing(P) or rebellion. I have not wronged(Q) you, but you are hunting(R) me down to take my life.(S) 12 May the Lord judge(T) between you and me. And may the Lord avenge(U) the wrongs you have done to me, but my hand will not touch you. 13 As the old saying goes, ‘From evildoers come evil deeds,(V)’ so my hand will not touch you.
14 “Against whom has the king of Israel come out? Who are you pursuing? A dead dog?(W) A flea?(X) 15 May the Lord be our judge(Y) and decide(Z) between us. May he consider my cause and uphold(AA) it; may he vindicate(AB) me by delivering(AC) me from your hand.”
16 When David finished saying this, Saul asked, “Is that your voice,(AD) David my son?” And he wept aloud. 17 “You are more righteous than I,”(AE) he said. “You have treated me well,(AF) but I have treated you badly.(AG) 18 You have just now told me about the good you did to me; the Lord delivered(AH) me into your hands, but you did not kill me. 19 When a man finds his enemy, does he let him get away unharmed? May the Lord reward(AI) you well for the way you treated me today. 20 I know that you will surely be king(AJ) and that the kingdom(AK) of Israel will be established in your hands. 21 Now swear(AL) to me by the Lord that you will not kill off my descendants or wipe out my name from my father’s family.(AM)”
22 So David gave his oath to Saul. Then Saul returned home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.(AN)
