Isaiah 36
1 Now it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them.
Alò, nan katòzyèm ane a Wa Ézéchias la, Sanchérib, wa Assyrie a, te monte kont tout vil ranfòse Juda yo e te sezi yo.
2 And the king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to king Hezekiah with a great army. And he stood by the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field.
Konsa, wa Assyrie a te voye Rabschaké sòti Lakis nan Jérusalem vè wa Ézéchias avèk yon gwo lame. Li te kanpe kote kanal la sou gran chemen a ki rele Chan Foule a.
3 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah came forth to him, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder.
Epi Éliakim, fis a Hilkija a, ki te chèf sou kay wa a, Schebna, grefye a ak Joach, fis a Asaph la, grefye achiv la, te sòti vin kote l.
4 And Rabshakeh said to them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: What confidence is this in which thou trust?
Rabschaké te di yo: “Pale koulye a a Ézéchias; ‘Se konsa gran wa a, wa Assyrie a pale: “Ki konfyans sa ou genyen an?
5 I say, thy counsel and strength for the war are but vain words. Now on whom do thou trust that thou have rebelled against me?
Mwen di ou ke Konsèy nou ak fòs pou fè lagè nou pa plis pase pawòl vid. Alò, de kilès nou va depann lè nou fè rebelyon kont mwen an?
6 Behold, thou trust upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand, and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust on him.
Gade byen, ou depann de baton a wozo kraze sila a. Égypte menm. Men si yon nonm apiye kote li, baton li an ap antre nan men l e frennen l nèt. Se konsa Farawon, wa Égypte la ye pou tout sila ki depann de li yo.
7 But if thou say to me, We trust in Jehovah our God. Is that not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?
Men si ou di m: ‘Nou mete konfyans nan SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an’, èske se pa wo plas ak lotèl a Li menm yo ke Ézéchias te retire e te di Juda ak Jérusalem: ‘Ou va adore isit la devan lotèl sila a’?
8 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
Alò, pou rezon sa a, vin fè yon antant ak mèt mwen an, wa Assyrie a, e mwen va bannou de-mil cheval, si nou ka jwenn chevalye kont pou mete sou yo.
9 How then can thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
Kijan, alò, nou ka refize menm youn nan pi piti ofisye a mèt mwen yo pou depann de Égypte pou cha ak chevalye?
10 And have I now come up without Jehovah against this land to destroy it? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
Èske konsa, mwen te monte san pèmisyon SENYÈ a, kont peyi sa a pou detwi l? SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Ale monte kont peyi sa a pou detwi l.”’”
11 Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it. And speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people who are on the wall.
Epi Éliakim, Schebna ak Joach te di a Rabschaké: “Alò, pale ak sèvitè ou yo an Arameyen, paske nou konprann li. Pa pale ak nou an Jideyen nan zòrèy a moun ki sou miray yo.”
12 But Rabshakeh said, Has my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words, and not to the men who sit upon the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own urine with you?
Men Rabschaké te di: “Èske mèt mwen an te voye m sèlman a mèt nou ak nou menm pou pale pawòl sa yo, e pa a moun sila yo ki chita sou miray la, ki va oblije manje pwòp poupou yo e bwè dlo pipi yo ansanm avèk nou?”
13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.
Konsa Rabschaké te kanpe e te kriye ak yon gwo vwa an Jideyen. Li te di: “Tande pawòl a gran wa a, wa Assyrie a.
14 Thus says the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to deliver you.
Konsa pale wa a: ‘Pa kite Ézéchias pase nou nan tenten, paske li p ap ka delivre nou!
15 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will surely deliver us. This city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
Ni pa kite Ézéchias fè nou mete konfyans nan SENYÈ a, oswa di nou: “Anverite SENYÈ a va delivre nou, vil sa a p ap bay nan men a wa Assyrie a.”’
16 Hearken not to Hezekiah. For thus says the king of Assyria, Make your peace with me, and come out to me, and eat ye everyone of his vine, and everyone of his fig tree, and drink ye everyone the waters of his own cistern,
Pa koute Ézéchias, paske konsa pale wa Assyrie a: ‘Fè lapè ak mwen, vin jwenn mwen, chak moun va manje nan pwòp chan rezen pa li, chak moun nan pwòp pye fig pa li, e chak moun va bwè dlo nan pwòp sitèn pa li,
17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
jiskaske m vin mennen nou ale nan yon peyi tankou peyi pa nou an, yon peyi ak anpil sereyal ak diven nèf, yon peyi ak pen ak chan rezen.
18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us. Has any of the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Veye pou Ézéchias pa egare nou e di nou: “SENYÈ a va delivre nou”. Èske youn nan dye a nasyon yo te delivre tè li a anba men a wa Assyrie la?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? And have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Kote dye a Hamath ak Arpad yo? Kote dye a Sepharvaïm yo? Epi kilè yo te delivre Samarie nan men m?”
20 Who are they among all the gods of these countries that have delivered their country out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Se kilès pami tout dye peyi sila yo ki te delivre peyi pa yo nan men m, pou SENYÈ a ta delivre Jérusalem nan soti men m?’”
21 But they held their peace, and answered him not a word. For the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.
Men yo te pe la e pa t di l yon mo, paske lòd a wa a se te: “Pa reponn li”.
22 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah came, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
Epi Éliakim, fis a Hilkija a, ki te chèf sou kay la, Schebna, sekretè a ak Joach, fis a Asaph, achivist la, te rive kote Ézéchias ak rad yo chire, e te di li pawòl a Rabschaké yo.
