1 Samyèl 14
Bib La · Kreyòl Ayisyen
1 Yon jou, Jonatan, pitit Sayil la, pale ak jenn gason ki t'ap pote zam li yo, li di l' konsa: -Ann al avè m'! Ann travèse lòt bò a, nan kan moun Filisti yo. Men Jonatan pa t' avèti papa l'. 2 Sayil menm te moute kan li anba pye grenad Migwon an, sou lizyè peyi Gibeya a. Li te gen sisan (0600) sòlda konsa avè l'. 3 Prèt ki t'ap pote jile Bondye a te rele Akija. Se te pitit Akitoub, pitit frè Ikabòd la. Yo te pitit Fineas ki li menm te pitit Eli, ki te prèt Seyè a lavil Silo. Sòlda yo pa t' konnen Jonatan te pati. 4 Nan pas kote Jonatan t'ap chache janbe larivyè pou ale nan kan moun Filisti yo, te gen de gwo wòch, yonn chak bò pas la. Yonn te rele Bozès, lòt la Sene. 5 Yonn te sou bò nò anfas lavil Mikmas, lòt la sou bò sid anfas lavil Geba. 6 Jonatan di jenn gason an: -Ann janbe lòt bò nan kan moun Filisti yo, bann moun sa yo ki pa sèvi Seyè a. Ou pa janm konnen, Seyè a ka ede nou. Paske pa gen anyen ki ka anpeche l' fè nou genyen, nou te mèt anpil, nou te mèt pa anpil. 7 Jenn gason an reponn li: -Fè sa ou gen nan lide ou. Ale non! M'ap kanpe avè ou! 8 Jonatan di l': -Bon! Nou pral janbe lòt bò a epi n'ap kite yo wè nou. 9 Si yo di nou rete kote nou ye a, y'ap vin jwenn nou, n'ap rete kote nou ye a, nou p'ap mache sou yo. 10 Men, si yo di nou moute vin jwenn yo, enben! n'a mache sou yo. Paske, sa vle di Seyè a gen tan lage yo nan men nou. 11 Yo parèt kò yo, yo kite moun Filisti yo wè yo. Moun Filisti yo di: -Gade! Men kèk ebre k'ap soti nan twou kote yo te kache. 12 Sòlda Filisti yo rele Jonatan ak jenn gason an, yo di yo: -Moute vin jwenn nou non. Nou gen yon bagay pou n' di nou. Lè sa a, Jonatan di jenn gason an: -Swiv mwen. Seyè a lage yo nan men pèp Izrayèl la. 13 Jonatan grenpe moute sou men l' ak sou pye l' yo, jenn gason an t'ap swiv li. Jonatan atake moun Filisti yo, li jete yo atè. Jenn gason an menm t'ap touye yo dèyè l'. 14 Nan premye atak sa a, Jonatan ak jenn gason an te touye vin sòlda konsa, sou yon ti teren ki pa t' menm mezire yon ka (01/4) kawo tè. 15 Tout moun Filisti ki te nan kan an, nan tout plenn lan, vin pè anpil. Sòlda yo te mete an avangad yo ak tout rès lame a te vin pè tou. Tè a pran tranble, te gen yon gwo kouri nan tout peyi a. 16 Faksyonnè Sayil te mete ap veye lavil Gibeya nan peyi moun Benjamen yo wè te gen yon sèl debandad nan mitan moun Filisti yo ki t'ap kouri tankou moun fou. 17 Sayil di moun ki te avè l' yo: -Konte sòlda yo! Gade kilès ki pa la! Yo konte, yo pa jwenn ni Jonatan ni jenn gason ki te konn pote zam li yo. 18 Lè sa a, Sayil di Akija konsa: -Pwoche ak Bwat Kontra Bondye a isit. Li te di sa paske jou sa a se Akija ki t'ap pote bwat la devan pèp Izrayèl la. 19 Pandan Sayil t'ap pale ak prèt la, kouri a te vin pi rèd nan mitan moun Filisti yo. Sayil di prèt la konsa: -Rete sou sa ou fè! 20 Li leve ansanm ak moun ki te avè l' yo, yo ale kote batay la te cho a. Moun Filisti yo menm te fin pèdi tèt yo, yo t'ap goumen yonn ak lòt. 21 Gen kèk ebre ki te mete tèt yo bò kote moun Filisti yo, yo te la avèk yo nan kan an. Lè sa a, yo vire kont moun Filisti yo, yo mete yo bò moun pèp Izrayèl yo ki te avèk Sayil ak Jonatan. 22 Moun pèp Izrayèl ki te kache nan mòn Efrayim yo vin tande moun Filisti yo t'ap kraze rak. Yo menm tou yo vini, yo lage kò yo nan batay la, yo t'ap kouri dèyè moun Filisti yo. 23 Se konsa jou sa a, Seyè a te sove pèp Izrayèl la. Yo rive jouk lòt bò lavil Bèt-Avenn, yo t'ap goumen toujou. 24 Jou sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo te fèb anpil tèlman yo te grangou paske Sayil te pran yon gwo angajman devan tout pèp la, li te pase lòd sa a: -Madichon pou nenpòt moun ki va mete manje nan bouch li jòdi a anvan mwen pran revanj mwen sou lènmi m' yo. Se konsa pesonn nan peyi a pa t' manje anyen jou sa a. 25 Pèp la rive nan yon gwo rakbwa kote ki te gen anpil siwo myèl. 26 Siwo myèl t'ap koule konsa atè nan rakbwa a, men pesonn pa goute menm ladan l' paske yo te pè pou malè Sayil te di a pa rive yo. 27 Men, Jonatan pa t' konnen papa l' te bay pèp la prigad sa a. Sa li fè, li lonje baton ki te nan men l' lan, li tranpe bout baton an nan yon gato myèl, epi li mete l' nan bouch li. Lamenm, li santi li vin gen fòs ankò. 28 Men, yonn nan mesye yo di li: -Tout moun ap tonbe feblès, yo pa manje paske papa ou te ban nou prigad sa a, li te di: Madichon pou nenpòt moun ki manje anyen jòdi a. 29 Jonatan reponn li: -Sa papa m' fè pèp la la a pa bon menm! Gade jan m' santi m' gen fòs ankò, paske mwen goute yon ti siwo myèl. 30 Si pèp la te manje nan manje li pran lakay moun Filisti yo jòdi a, koulye a èske nou wè kantite moun Filisti nou ta ka touye met sou sa nou touye deja yo? 31 Jou sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo bat moun Filisti yo byen bat, depi lavil Mikmas jouk lavil Ajalon. Pèp la t'ap tonbe feblès tèlman yo te grangou. 32 Se konsa yo lage kò yo sou sa yo te pran nan men lènmi yo: yo pran mouton, kabrit, gwo bèf, ti bèf, yo touye yo lamenm epi yo manje vyann lan ak tout san an ladan l'. 33 Y' al di Sayil konsa: -Gade! Men pèp la ap peche kont Seyè a: Y'ap manje vyann ak tout san an ladan l'. Sayil di konsa: -Nou se yon bann lach! Woule yon gwo wòch bò isit la ban mwen. 34 Apre sa, li bay lòd sa a: -Gaye kò nou nan tout pèp la. Al di pou chak moun mennen bèf yo ak mouton yo ban mwen. Se isit la n'a touye yo, se isit la n'a manje yo pou nou pa fè peche kont Seyè a, pou nou pa manje vyann yo ak tout san yo ladan yo. Jou swa sa a, chak moun mennen bèt yo te genyen, yo touye yo la. 35 Sayil bati yon lotèl pou Seyè a. Se te premye lotèl li te bati. 36 Sayil di moun yo: -Ann desann dèyè moun Filisti yo. Ann pase nwit lan ap bat yo, n'a piye yo jouk bajou kase, n'a touye yo tout. Yo reponn li: -Fè sa ou wè ki bon! Men, prèt la di: -Ann gade sa Seyè a di nou sou sa! 37 Sayil mande Seyè a: -Eske se pou m' desann dèyè moun Filisti yo? Eske w'ap lage yo nan men pèp Izrayèl la? Men Seyè a pa reponn li jou sa a. 38 Lè sa a, li rele tout chèf pèp la, li di yo: -Pwoche devan la a. Chache konnen ki peche nou te fè jòdi a. 39 Mwen bay pawòl mwen. Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè ki vivan an, li menm ki delivre pèp Izrayèl la, menm si se Jonatan, pitit mwen, ki koupab, se pou l' mouri. Pesonn pa louvri bouch yo di anyen. 40 Epi li di tout pèp Izrayèl la: -Nou menm kanpe bò isit. Mwen menm ak Jonatan, pitit gason m' lan, m'ap kanpe bò la. Pèp la di Sayil: -Fè sa ou wè ki bon! 41 Sayil di Seyè a: -Bondye pèp Izrayèl la! Poukisa ou pa reponn mwen jòdi a? Seyè, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, tanpri, reponn mwen nan ourim ak toumim yo. Si se mwen menm osinon Jonatan ki koupab, w'a bay ourim yo. Men, si se yon moun nan pèp la ki koupab, w'a bay toumim yo. Seyè a fè yo konnen se bò Sayil ak Jonatan fòt la te ye, pèp la te pou anyen nan sa. 42 Sayil di: -Koulye a, ant Jonatan avè m', di kilès nan nou de a ki koupab. Seyè a fè konnen se Jonatan. 43 Lè sa a, Sayil mande Jonatan: -Kisa ou fè? Jonatan reponn: -Mwen te pran ti gout siwo myèl nan pwent baton ki te nan men m' lan, mwen goute. Men mwen! Mwen pare pou m' mouri. 44 Sayil di li: -Se pou Bondye ban m' pi gwo pinisyon ki genyen si mwen pa fè yo touye ou. 45 Men pèp la di Sayil konsa: -Se Jonatan ki te genyen bèl batay sa a pou pèp Izrayèl la, li pa ka mouri. Mande Bondye padon! Nou fè sèman devan Seyè ki vivan an, nou p'ap kite yon grenn cheve nan tèt li tonbe, paske se avèk lasistans Bondye li fè sa l' fè jòdi a. Se konsa moun yo enpoze yo touye Jonatan. Li pa mouri. 46 Apre sa, Sayil sispann kouri dèyè moun Filisti yo. Moun Filisti yo menm tounen nan peyi yo. 47 Apre yo te fin fè Sayil wa peyi Izrayèl la, li fè lagè ak tout lènmi l' yo alawonnbadè: ak moun Moab yo, moun Amon yo, moun Edon yo, ak wa lavil Soba yo, ak moun Filisti yo. Kote li pase, li genyen batay yo. 48 Li te fè wè jan li te yon vanyan sòlda. Li bat ata moun Amalèk yo. Konsa, li delivre pèp Izrayèl la anba men tout moun ki t'ap piye l' yo. 49 Men pitit gason Sayil te genyen: Se te Jonatan, Yichwi ak Malkichwa. Men non de pitit fi li yo: Pi gran an te rele Merab, pi piti a te rele Mikal. 50 Madan Sayil te rele Akinoam. Se te pitit Akimas. Kòmandan lame a te rele Abnè. Se te pitit Nè, tonton Sayil. 51 Kich, papa Sayil, ak Nè, papa Abnè, te pitit gason Abiyèl. 52 Sayil pase tout lavi li ap mennen gwo batay ak moun Filisti yo. Chak fwa li te jwenn yon vanyan gason osinon yon moun ki te gen anpil fòs ak kouraj, li te mete l' nan lame li a.

1 Samyèl 14:1
1Sa 14:1-14. Jonathan Miraculously Smites the Philistines' Garrison.
1. the Philistines' garrison--"the standing camp" (1Sa 13:23, Margin) "in the passage of Michmash" (1Sa 13:16), now Wady Es-Suweinit. "It begins in the neighborhood of Betin (Beth-el) and El-Bireh (Beetroth), and as it breaks through the ridge below these places, its sides form precipitous walls. On the right, about a quarter of an acre below, it again breaks off, and passes between high perpendicular precipices" [Robinson].
1 Samyèl 14:2
2. Saul tarried in the uttermost part of Gibeah--Hebrew, "Geba"; entrenched, along with Samuel and Ahiah the high priest, on the top of one of the conical or spherical hills which abound in the Benjamite territory, and favorable for an encampment, called Migron ("a precipice").
1 Samyèl 14:4
4. between the passages--that is, the deep and great ravine of Suweinit.
Jonathan sought to go over unto the Philistines' garrison--a distance of about three miles running between two jagged points; Hebrew, "teeth of the cliff."
there was a sharp rock on the one side, and a sharp rock on the other side ... Bozez--("shining") from the aspect of the chalky rock.
Seneh--("the thorn") probably from a solitary acacia on its top. They are the only rocks of the kind in this vicinity; and the top of the crag towards Michmash was occupied as the post of the Philistines. The two camps were in sight of each other; and it was up the steep rocky sides of this isolated eminence that Jonathan and his armorbearer (1Sa 14:6) made their adventurous approach. This enterprise is one of the most gallant that history or romance records. The action, viewed in itself, was rash and contrary to all established rules of military discipline, which do not permit soldiers to fight or to undertake any enterprise that may involve important consequences without the order of the generals.
1 Samyèl 14:6
6. it may be that the Lord will work for us--This expression did not imply a doubt; it signified simply that the object he aimed at was not in his own power--but it depended upon God--and that he expected success neither from his own strength nor his own merit.
1 Samyèl 14:9-10
9-10. if they say, Come up unto us; then we will go up: for the Lord hath delivered them into our hand--When Jonathan appears here to prescribe a sign or token of God's will, we may infer that the same spirit which inspired this enterprise suggested the means of its execution, and put into his heart what to ask of God. (See on Ge 24:12).
1 Samyèl 14:11
11. Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the holes--As it could not occur to the sentries that two men had come with hostile designs, it was a natural conclusion that they were Israelite deserters. And hence no attempt was made to hinder their ascent, or stone them.
1 Samyèl 14:14-15
14-15. that first slaughter, which Jonathan and his armour-bearer made, was about twenty men, within as it were an half acre of land, which a yoke of oxen might plow--This was a very ancient mode of measurement, and it still subsists in the East. The men who saw them scrambling up the rock had been surprised and killed, and the spectacle of twenty corpses would suggest to others that they were attacked by a numerous force. The success of the adventure was aided by a panic that struck the enemy, produced both by the sudden surprise and the shock of an earthquake. The feat was begun and achieved by the faith of Jonathan, and the issue was of God.
1 Samyèl 14:16
16. the watchmen of Saul ... looked--The wild disorder in the enemies' camp was described and the noise of dismay heard on the heights of Gibeah.
1 Samyèl 14:17-19
17-19. Then said Saul unto the people that were with him, Number now, and see who is gone from us--The idea occurred to him that it might be some daring adventurer belonging to his own little troop, and it would be easy to discover him.
1 Samyèl 14:20-22
20-22. Saul and all the people--All the warriors in the garrison at Gibeah, the Israelite deserters in the camp of the Philistines, and the fugitives among the mountains of Ephraim, now all rushed to the pursuit, which was hot and sanguinary.
1 Samyèl 14:23
23. So the Lord saved Israel that day: and the battle passed over unto Beth-aven--that is, "Beth-el." It passed over the forest, now destroyed, on the central ridge of Palestine, then over to the other side from the eastern pass of Michmash (1Sa 14:31), to the western pass of Aijalon, through which they escaped into their own plains.
1 Samyèl 14:24
24. Saul had adjured the people--Afraid lest so precious an opportunity of effectually humbling the Philistine power might be lost, the impetuous king laid an anathema on any one who should taste food until the evening. This rash and foolish denunciation distressed the people, by preventing them taking such refreshments as they might get on the march, and materially hindered the successful attainment of his own patriotic object.
1 Samyèl 14:25
25. all they of the land came to a wood; and there was honey--The honey is described as "upon the ground," "dropping" from the trees, and in honeycombs--indicating it to be bees' honey. "Bees in the East are not, as in England, kept in hives; they are all in a wild state. The forests literally flow with honey; large combs may be seen hanging on the trees as you pass along, full of honey" [Roberts].
1 Samyèl 14:31-34
31-34. the people were very faint. And the people flew upon the spoil--at evening, when the time fixed by Saul had expired. Faint and famishing, the pursuers fell voraciously upon the cattle they had taken, and threw them on the ground to cut off their flesh and eat them raw, so that the army, by Saul's rashness, were defiled by eating blood, or living animals; probably, as the Abyssinians do, who cut a part of the animal's rump, but close the hide upon it, and nothing mortal follows from that wound. They were painfully conscientious in keeping the king's order for fear of the curse, but had no scruple in transgressing God's command. To prevent this violation of the law, Saul ordered a large stone to be rolled, and those that slaughtered the oxen to cut their throats on that stone. By laying the animal's head on the high stone, the blood oozed out on the ground, and sufficient evidence was afforded that the ox or sheep was dead before it was attempted to eat it.
1 Samyèl 14:45
45. the people rescued Jonathan, that he died not--When Saul became aware of Jonathan's transgression in regard to the honey, albeit it was done in ignorance and involved no guilt, he was, like Jephthah [Jud 11:31, 35], about to put his son to death, in conformity with his vow [1Sa 14:44]. But the more enlightened conscience of the army prevented the tarnishing the glory of the day by the blood of the young hero, to whose faith and valor it was chiefly due.
1 Samyèl 14:47-48
47-48. So Saul ... fought against all his enemies on every side--This signal triumph over the Philistines was followed, not only by their expulsion from the land of Israel, but by successful incursions against various hostile neighbors, whom he harassed though he did not subdue them.
