II Samuel 13

Men sa ki vin rive apre sa: Absalon, pitit gason David la, te gen yon sè ki te bèl anpil. Li te rele Tama. Amnon, yon lòt pitit gason David, tonbe damou pou li.

And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

Amnon te sitèlman renmen l', li vin malad paske li pa t' ka fè anyen pou sa. Tama te tifi toujou. Yo pa t' kite l' kontre ak ankenn gason.

And Amnon was so vexed, that he fell sick for his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and Amnon thought it hard for him to do any thing to her.

Men, Amnon te gen yon zanmi, yon moun yo te rele Jonadab, pitit gason Chimeya, frè David. Jonadab sa a te mètdam anpil.

But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man.

Li di Amnon konsa: -Ou se pitit wa a. Chak jou mwen wè figi ou kagou. Sa ki genyen? Amnon reponn li: -Mwen renmen Tama, sè Absalon, frè menm papa avè m' lan.

And he said unto him, Why art thou, being the king's son, lean from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said unto him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.

Jonadab di li: -Pran pòz malad ou, moute kabann ou kouche. Lè papa ou va vin wè ou, w'a di l': Tanpri, kite Tama, sè m' lan, vin ban m' manje. Mwen ta renmen pou li pare manje a devan m' pou m' wè l', lèfini pou l' sèvi m' manje a li menm.

And Jonadab said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and make thyself sick: and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come, and give me meat, and dress the meat in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.

Se konsa Amnon moute kabann li kouche, li pran pòz malad li. Wa David vin wè l'. Amnon di l' konsa: -Tanpri, kite Tama vin pare de ti gato la devan m' lan, lèfini pou l' sèvi m' yo li menm.

So Amnon lay down, and made himself sick: and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.

David voye komisyon bay Tama nan palè a pou l' ale kay Amnon pare manje pou li.

Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, Go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him meat.

Tama ale vre kay Amnon, li jwenn li kouche sou kabann li. Li pran ti gout farin frans, li pare l', li fè kèk gato pou li devan je l'. Lèfini, li mete yo kwit.

So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was laid down. And she took flour, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.

Apre sa, li wete yo nan pwelon an devan Amnon. Men, Amnon refize manje. Li di l': -Fè tout moun soti! Lè tout moun fin soti,

And she took a pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Have out all men from me. And they went out every man from him.

Amnon di Tama konsa: -Pote gato yo nan chanm lan. Se ou menm ki pou sèvi m'. Tama pran gato li te fè yo, li pote yo bay Amnon nan chanm lan.

And Amnon said unto Tamar, Bring the meat into the chamber, that I may eat of thine hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.

Antan l'ap lonje gato a ba li, Amnon mete men sou li. Li di l' konsa: -vin kouche avè m' non, sè m'!

And when she had brought them unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come lie with me, my sister.

Tama di l': -Non, frè m'! Pa fòse m'! Sa pa fèt konsa nan peyi Izrayèl! Pa fè bagay lèd sa a.

And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.

Apre sa, mwen p'ap ka gade moun nan je ankò. Ou menm, pou tèt pa ou, w'ap pase pou yonn nan pi move moun nan peyi Izrayèl. Tanpri, pale ak wa a. Mwen sèten li p'ap refize ou marye avè m'.

And I, whither shall I cause my shame to go? and as for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.

Men, Amnon pa wè li pa tande, li kenbe l' la. Li te gen plis fòs pase l', li kouche ak li.

Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice: but, being stronger than she, forced her, and lay with her.

Lèfini, li santi li rayi Tama pou l' mouri. Li vin rayi l' plis pase jan li te renmen l' lan. Li di l': -Mete ou deyò lakay mwen!

Then Amnon hated her exceedingly; so that the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone.

Tama reponn li: -A non! Mete m' deyò konsa! Sa pi mal ankò pase sa ou sot fè m' la a! Men Amnon pa t' soti pou koute l'.

And she said unto him, There is no cause: this evil in sending me away is greater than the other that thou didst unto me. But he would not hearken unto her.

Li rele gason ki t'ap sèvi l' la, li di l': -Wete fi sa a devan je m'! Mete l' deyò. Lèfini, fèmen pòt la akle dèyè l'.

Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.

Gason an fè Tama soti deyò, li fèmen pòt la akle dèyè l'. Tama te gen yon rad long ak gwo manch sou li. Se rad konsa pitit wa yo te konn mete sou yo lè yo poko marye.

And she had a garment of divers colours upon her: for with such robes were the king's daughters that were virgins apparelled. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.

Li simen sann dife sou tèt li, li chire rad ki te sou li a, li mete de men nan tèt, li pran rele epi li ale.

And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of divers colours that was on her, and laid her hand on her head, and went on crying.

Lè sa a, Absalon, frè l' la, mande l': -Eske Amnon, frè ou la, fè kadejak sou ou? Tanpri, sè m' pa kite sa fatige ou twòp, tande. Se frè ou li ye. Pa di pesonn anyen. Se konsa Tama rete pou kont li kay Absalon, frè l' la. Li te nan gwo lapenn.

And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but hold now thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; regard not this thing. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.

Lè wa David vin konn sa ki te pase, li te move. Men, li pa di Amnon anyen, paske se te premye pitit gason l'. Li te renmen l' kou de grenn je nan tèt li.

But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth.

Absalon vin rayi Amnon pou kadejak li te fè sou Tama, sè li a. Li koupe l' bonjou.

And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.

Dezan apre sa, Absalon t'ap koupe lenn mouton l' yo lavil Baal azò, toupre lavil Efrayim. Li envite tout pitit gason wa yo vin manje.

And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal–hazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons.

li al jwenn wa David, li di l' konsa: -Monwa, mwen pral koupe lenn mouton m' yo. Ou pa ta vle vini ansanm ak tout chèf ou yo lakay mwen?

And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I beseech thee, and his servants go with thy servant.

W'a reponn li: -Non, pitit mwen! Se pral twòp traka pou ou si nou tout nou vini. Absalon pèsiste, men wa a pa pran priyè, li voye l' ale ak benediksyon l'.

And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all now go, lest we be chargeable unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.

Lè sa a Absalon di l': -Men, èske w'ap kite Amnon, frè m' lan, vini ak nou? Wa a reponn li? -Poukisa pou l' ale a?

Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?

Men Absalon sitèlman pèsiste, bout pou bout, David kite Amnon ale ansanm ak tout lòt pitit gason l' yo. Absalon te pare yon gwo fèt tankou si l' t'ap fè l' pou yon wa.

But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.

Epi li bay domestik li yo lòd sa a, li di yo: -Gade byen, lè n'a wè Anmon ak bon gwòg nan tèt li, m'a di nou: Desann Amnon. n'a touye l'. Nou pa bezwen pè, mwen pran tout reskonsablite a sou mwen. Mete gason sou nou. Frape san tranble.

Now Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and when I say unto you, Smite Amnon; then kill him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.

Se konsa domestik Absalon yo swiv lòd Absalon te ba yo, yo touye Amnon. Lè sa a, tout lòt pitit gason David yo leve, yo moute milèt yo, yo met deyò.

And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.

Yo te sou chemen lakay yo toujou, lè David vin pran nouvèl Absalon touye dènye pitit gason li yo, pa gen yonn ki chape.

And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.

Wa a leve kanpe, li chire rad ki te sou li, li lage kò l' atè. Tout moun ki te avèk wa a chire rad sou yo tou.

Then the king arose, and tare his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent.

Men Jonabad, pitit gason Chimeya, frè David la, di l': -Monwa, yo pa touye tout pitit gason ou yo non. Se Amnon ase ki mouri, paske Absalon te gen lide nan tèt li pou l' te fè sa depi lè Amnon te fè kadejak sou Tama, sè l' la.

And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have slain all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

Koulye a, monwa, ou pa bezwen koute moun k'ap vin di ou tout pitit gason ou yo mouri. Se Amnon ase yo touye.

Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead: for Amnon only is dead.

Lè sa a Absalon te gen tan kraze rak. Sòlda ki te faksyonnè a wè yon foul moun ki t'ap kouri desann ti pant sou chemen lavil Owonayim lan. li al jwenn wa a, li di l' sa li wè.

But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came much people by the way of the hill side behind him.

Jonabad di wa a konsa: -Men sa m' t'ap di ou la. Se pitit gason ou yo k'ap vini.

And Jonadab said unto the king, Behold, the king's sons come: as thy servant said, so it is.

Fini li fin di sa, pitit gason David yo rive. Yo pete rele. Wa a pran rele ansanm ak tout chèf li yo. Yo rele kont rele yo.

And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of speaking, that, behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very sore.

Absalon menm kraze rak, li al kay Talmayi, pitit gason Amiyoud la, ki te wa lavil Gechou a. David menm te nan gwo lapenn pandan kèk jou pou lanmò Amnon.

But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son every day.

Absalon rete pase twazan lavil Gechou kote li te kouri al kache a.

So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.

Lè wa David fin konsole apre lanmò Amnon, li vin anvi wè Absalon.

And the soul of king David longed to go forth unto Absalom: for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
