1 Samyèl 26
Bib La · Kreyòl Ayisyen
1 Moun ki rete nan dezè Zif yo al jwenn Sayil lavil Gibeya, yo di l': -Men David kache sou ti mòn Akila a, sou limit dezè peyi Jida a. 2 Sayil pati lamenm avèk twamil (03000) sòlda nan pi bon sòlda peyi Izrayèl la. Li desann nan dezè Zif la al dèyè David. 3 Li moute kan li sou ti mòn Akila a, toupre wout la, sou limit dezè a. David menm te nan dezè a toujou. Lè li vin konnen Sayil te vin dèyè l' nan dezè a, 4 li voye kèk espyon. Yo vin di l' Sayil te desann vre nan dezè a. 5 David leve, li pati pou kote Sayil te moute kan lame li a. Li gade pozisyon kote Sayil ak kòmandan lame li a, Abnè, pitit gason Nè a, te kouche. Sayil te kouche nan mitan, tout sòlda yo te kouche bò kote l'. 6 David pale ak Akimelèk, moun peyi Et la, ak Abichayi, frè Joab, pitit gason Sewouya a, li di yo: -Kilès nan nou de a ki ta vle desann avè m' nan kan Sayil la? Abichayi reponn: -M'ap desann avè ou. 7 Se konsa, jou sa a, nan mitan lannwit, David ak Abichayi rive nan kan an. Yo wè Sayil kouche ap dòmi nan mitan kan an, frenn li te plante nan tè a bò tèt li. Abnè ak tout rès sòlda yo te kouche bò kote l' ap dòmi tou. 8 Abichayi di David konsa: -Aswè a Seyè a lage lènmi ou lan nan men ou vre. Koulye a, kite m' kloure l' atè a ak pwòp frenn li a. Yon sèl kou ap ase. Mwen p'ap bezwen frape l' de fwa. 9 Men, David di Abichayi konsa: -Pa leve men sou li. Seyè a p'ap manke pini moun ki va leve men l' sou wa li menm li te chwazi a. 10 Apre sa, David di: -Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè ki vivan an, se Seyè a menm ki pou touye l'. L'a mouri lè lè pou l' mouri a va rive, osinon l'a mouri nan lagè. 11 Mande Bondye padon non! Mwen p'ap leve men m' sou wa Seyè a te chwazi a. Ann pran frenn li a ak krich dlo ki bò tèt li a. Epi ann ale. 12 David pran frenn lan ak krich dlo ki te bò tèt Sayil la, epi yo ale. Pesonn pa t' wè sa, pesonn pa t' konnen sa ki te rive. Pesonn pa t' leve nan dòmi an. Yo te dòmi nèt ale, paske Seyè a te fè yon gwo dòmi pran yo. 13 Lè sa a, David janbe lòt bò fon an, li kanpe sou tèt ti mòn lan, byen lwen ak yon bèl distans nan mitan li ak lame a. 14 Li pran rele sòlda yo ak Abnè, pitit gason Nè a, li di yo konsa: -Abnè o! Eske ou tande mwen? Abnè reponn: -Kilès k'ap rele nan zòrèy wa a konsa? 15 David di li: -Se pa gason ou ye? Ki moun ki ka koresponn avè ou nan peyi Izrayèl la? Poukisa ou pa pwoteje wa a, mèt ou, pi byen? Talè a, gen yon moun ki antre nan kan an ak lide pou l' te touye wa a. 16 Li pa bon non sa ou fè a. Ou manke sou travay ou, Abnè. Mwen fè sèman devan Bondye ki vivan an, nou tout nou merite yo touye nou. Paske nou pa pwoteje mèt nou, wa Seyè a te chwazi a! Gade non! Kote frenn wa a? Kote krich dlo ki te bò tèt li a? 17 Sayil rekonèt vwa David, li di: -David, pitit mwen, se ou menm pa vre? David di li: -Se mwen wi, monwa! 18 Apre sa, li di ankò: -Chèmèt mwen, poukisa w'ap pousib mwen konsa, mwen menm k'ap sèvi ou la? Kisa m' fè? Ki krim mwen fè? 19 Koulye a, monwa, tanpri koute sa m'ap di ou. Si se Seyè a ki moute tèt ou kont mwen, al fè yon ofrann ba li pou li ka chanje lide l'. Men, si se moun k'ap fè ou fè sa, se pou madichon Seyè a tonbe sou yo! Koulye a, yo mete m' deyò nan peyi a pou m' pèdi pòsyon pa m' nan tè Seyè a te bay pèp li a, yo voye m' al sèvi lòt bondye. 20 Pa kite yo touye m' nan peyi etranje byen lwen Seyè a! Poukisa pou wa Izrayèl la leve tout lame a pou l' chache touye yon ti pis tankou m'? Poukisa pou l' ap kouri dèyè m' nan tout mòn yo tankou lè moun ap fè lachas ranmye! 21 Sayil reponn: -Sa m' fè a mal. Tounen non, David, pitit mwen. Mwen p'ap janm chache fè ou mal paske ou refize touye m' aswè a ankò. Wi, mwen te aji tankou moun fou, mwen te fè yon bagay ki pa bon menm. 22 David reponn li: -Monwa, men frenn ou an. Fè yonn nan moun ou yo janbe vin chache l'. 23 Seyè a va bay chak moun sa yo merite, dapre jan yo mache devan li, dapre jan yo kenbe pwomès yo. Jòdi a, li te lage ou nan men m'. Men, mwen pa fè ou anyen, mwen pa leve men m' sou wa Seyè a te chwazi a. 24 Menm jan mwen te gen respè pou ou jòdi a, m' pa touye ou, mwen mande Seyè a pou l' fè menm bagay la pou mwen tou, lèfini pou l' wete m' nan tout tèt chaje sa yo. 25 Sayil di David: -Se pou Bondye beni ou, pitit gason mwen! Se pou tou sa w'ap fè mache byen! Apre sa, David al fè wout li, Sayil menm tounen lakay li.

1 Samyèl 26:1-2
1Sa 26:1-4. Saul Comes to the Hill of Hachilah against David.
1-2. the Ziphites came unto Saul to Gibeah--This people seem to have thought it impossible for David to escape, and therefore recommended themselves to Saul, by giving him secret information (see on 1Sa 23:19). The knowledge of their treachery makes it appear strange that David should return to his former haunt in their neighborhood; but, perhaps he did it to be near Abigail's possessions, and under the impression that Saul had become mollified. But the king had relapsed into his old enmity. Though Gibeah, as its name imports, stood on an elevated position, and the desert of Ziph, which was in the hilly region of Judea, may have been higher than Gibeah, it was still necessary to descend in leaving the latter place; thence Saul (1Sa 26:2) "went down to the wilderness of Ziph."
1 Samyèl 26:4-5
4-5. David ... sent out spies ... and David arose, and came to the place where Saul had pitched--Having obtained certain information of the locality, he seems, accompanied by his nephew (1Sa 26:6), to have hid himself, perhaps disguised, in a neighboring wood, or hill, on the skirts of the royal camp towards night, and waited to approach it under covert of the darkness.
1Sa 26:5-25. David Stays Abishai from Killing Saul, but Takes His Spear and Cruse.
1 Samyèl 26:8-12
8-12. Then said Abishai to David, God hath delivered thine enemy into thine hand--This midnight stratagem shows the activity and heroic enterprise of David's mind, and it was in unison with the style of warfare in ancient times.
let me smite him ... even to the earth at once--The ferocious vehemence of the speaker is sufficiently apparent from his language, but David's magnanimity soared far above the notions of his followers. Though Saul's cruelty and perfidy and general want of right principle had sunk him to a low pitch of degradation, yet that was no reason for David's imitating him in doing wrong. Besides, he was the sovereign; David was a subject. Though God had rejected him from the kingdom, it was in every way the best and most dutiful course, instead of precipitating his fall by imbruing their hands in his blood and thereby contracting the guilt of a great crime, to wait the awards of that retributive providence which sooner or later would take him off by some sudden and mortal blow. He who, with impetuous haste was going to exterminate Nabal, meekly spared Saul. But Nabal refused to give a tribute to which justice and gratitude, no less than custom, entitled David. Saul was under the judicial infatuation of heaven. Thus David withheld the hand of Abishai; but, at the same time, he directed him to carry off some things which would show where they had been, and what they had done. Thus he obtained the best of victories over him, by heaping coals of fire on his head.
1 Samyèl 26:13-20
13-20. Then David ... stood on the top of an hill afar off ... and cried to the people--(See on Jud 9:7). The extraordinary purity and elasticity of the air in Palestine enable words to be distinctly heard that are addressed by a speaker from the top of one hill to people on that of another, from which it is separated by a deep intervening ravine. Hostile parties can thus speak to each other, while completely beyond the reach of each other's attack. It results from the peculiar features of the country in many of the mountain districts.
1 Samyèl 26:25
25. So David went on his way--Notwithstanding this sudden relenting of Saul, David placed no confidence in his professions or promises, but wisely kept at a distance and awaited the course of Providence.
