I Chronicles 21

Yon jou, Satan move sou pèp Izrayèl la, li pouse David al konte konbe moun ki nan pèp Izrayèl la.

And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.

Wa a pale ak Joab ansanm ak lòt chèf yo, li di yo konsa: -Ale nan tout branch fanmi Izrayèl yo, depi lavil Bètcheba nan sid jouk lavil Dann nan nò. Konte dènye moun ki nan pèp la. Lèfini, fè m' yon rapò pou m' ka konnen konbe moun ki gen nan peyi a.

And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer–sheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.

Men Joab di wa a konsa: -Monwa, mwen mande Seyè a pou li fè pèp Izrayèl la vin san fwa pi plis pase jan li ye koulye a. Lèfini, monwa, ou konnen yo tout la ap sèvi ou. Men poukisa, monwa, ou vle fè sa? Poukisa ou vle pòte pèp Izrayèl la fè sa ki mal?

And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times so many more as they be: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel?

Men, wa a pa t' soti pou li chanje lòd li te bay la. Konsa, Joab pati, li vwayaje nan tout peyi a. Apre sa, li tounen lavil Jerizalèm.

Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.

Joab renmèt wa a rapò ki bay kantite moun ki te gen antou nan tout peyi a. Se konsa yo te jwenn yon milyon sanmil (1.100.000) gason ki konn sèvi ak nepe nan peyi Izrayèl la ak katsanswasanndimil (470.000) nan peyi Jida a.

And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.

Men Joab pa t' konte moun ni nan branch fanmi Levi a, ni nan branch fanmi Benjamen an, paske lòd wa a te bay la pa t' antre nan santiman l' menm.

But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them: for the king's word was abominable to Joab.

Men, sa David te fè a pa t' fè Bondye plezi. Bondye pini pèp Izrayèl la.

And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.

Lè sa a, David di Bondye: -Sa m' fè la a, se yon gwo peche. Koulye a, tanpri, padonnen m'. Pa bliye se sèvitè ou mwen ye. Mwen te aji tankou moun fou.

And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

Seyè a pale ak pwofèt Gad, konseye David la, li di l' konsa:

And the LORD spake unto Gad, David's seer, saying,

-Ale pale ak David. W'a di l' men mesaj Seyè a voye ba ou. Li mete twa chatiman devan ou. Ou menm, w'a chwazi yonn ladan yo. Sa w'a chwazi a, se sa l'a fè ou.

Go and tell David, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things: choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.

Se konsa Gad al jwenn David lakay li, li di l' konsa: -Men sa Seyè a voye di ou: Kisa ou vle?

So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Choose thee

Twa lanne grangou nan tout peyi a, twa mwa ap kouri devan lènmi k'ap pousib ou ak sòlda yo, osinon twa jou ap sibi chatiman Seyè a ak yon epidemi nan tout peyi a, pou zanj Seyè a menm ap mache touye moun nan tout peyi Izrayèl la? Al kalkile sou sa pou fe m' konnen ki repons pou m' pote bay moun ki voye m' lan.

Either three years' famine; or three months to be destroyed before thy foes, while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of the LORD, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise thyself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.

David reponn: -M' nan gwo tèt chaje! Men, m' pa vle tonbe anba men lèzòm menm! Pito se Seyè a ki pini m', paske li gen bon kè!

And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for very great are his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man.

Se konsa, Seyè a voye yon epidemi sou pèp Izrayèl la. Li touye swasanndimil (70.000) moun nan pèp Izrayèl la.

So the LORD sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.

Seyè a te voye zanj li sou lavil Jerizalèm pou detwi l'. Lè zanj lan konmanse fè travay li, Seyè a wè sa, li fè lide sispann chatiman an. Li di zanj ki t'ap touye moun yo: -Sispann! Kenbe men ou! Lè sa a, zanj lan te gen tan toupre glasi Onan an, moun lavil Jebis la.

And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

David voye je l', li wè zanj Seyè a kanpe nan lè a, san pye l' pa touche tè, bra l' lonje sou lavil Jerizalèm ak yon nepe nan men l'. Lè sa a, David ak chèf fanmi yo, rad sak yo sou yo, bese tèt yo jouk atè.

And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders of Israel, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.

David pale ak Seyè a, li di l' konsa: -Se mwen menm ki te mande pou yo konte moun yo. Se mwen menm ki antò. Se mwen menm ki fè sa ki mal. Kisa moun sa yo fè? Se mouton yo ye. Tanpri, Seyè, Bondye mwen, pa voye ankenn malè sou pèp la. Se mwen menm ansanm ak fanmi mwen pou ou ta pini.

And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.

Zanj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Gad lòd pou l' te al mande David pou l' moute lakay Onan, moun lavil Jebis la, bati yon lotèl pou Seyè a nan mitan glasi a.

Then the angel of the LORD commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and set up an altar unto the LORD in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

David koute sa Gad te di l' la, li moute lakay Onan jan Seyè a te ba li lòd la.

And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of the LORD.

Onan menm t'ap bat ble ansanm ak kat pitit gason l' yo ki te la avè l' sou glasi a. Lè yo wè zanj lan, pitit li yo kouri al kache.

And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.

Onan vire tèt li, li wè David ki t'ap vini. Li kite glasi a, li tonbe ajenou devan wa a, li bese tèt li jouk fwon li touche tè.

And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshingfloor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.

David di Onan konsa: -Vann mwen anplasman glasi a pou m' bati yon lotèl pou Seyè a. Ban mwen li pou pri li vo. Konsa, epidemi k'ap fini ak pèp la va sispann.

Then David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of this threshingfloor, that I may build an altar therein unto the LORD: thou shalt grant it me for the full price: that the plague may be stayed from the people.

Onan di David konsa: -Monwa, ou mèt pran l' pou fè sa ou vle avè l'. Men m'ap bay bèf sa yo pou ou boule nèt sou lotèl la. Men jouk bèf yo ak bwa kabwa yo pou fè dife, ak ble pou sèvi ofrann grenn jaden an. M'ap ba ou tout bagay sa yo.

And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give thee the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meat offering; I give it all.

Men wa David reponn Onan, li di l': -Non. Se achte m'ap achte. Se pou m' peye ou sa yo vo. M' pa ka ofri Seyè a sa ki pou ou. Mwen p'ap pran anyen ki pa koute m' lajan pou m' ofri bay Seyè a.

And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for the LORD, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.

Se konsa David bay Onan swasant pyès lò pou anplasman glasi a.

So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.

Lèfini, li bati yon lotèl pou Seyè a, li fè ofrann bèt boule pou Bondye ak ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi. Li lapriyè nan pye Seyè a. Seyè a reponn li, li voye dife soti nan syèl la pou boule ofrann ki sou lotèl la.

And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the LORD; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.

Lè sa a, Seyè a bay zanj li a lòd pou li mete nepe li nan djenn li ankò.

And the LORD commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.

Lè David wè Seyè a te reponn lapriyè li te fè nan pye l' sou glasi Onan, moun lavil Jebis la, li ofri bèt pou touye sou lotèl la.

At that time when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.

Men lè sa a, Tant Randevou Moyiz te fè moute pou Seyè a nan dezè a ansanm ak lotèl pou boule ofrann bèt yo te sou mòn Gabawon toujou, kote yo te mete apa pou Seyè a.

For the tabernacle of the LORD, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that season in the high place at Gibeon.

Men, David pa t' ka ale la pou adore Seyè a, paske li te pè nepe zanj Seyè a.

But David could not go before it to enquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the LORD.
