2 Kings 24
1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years. Then he turned and rebelled against him.
Pandan reny Jojakim lan, Nèbikadneza, wa peyi Babilòn, anvayi peyi Jida. Pandan twazan Jojakim soumèt devan li. Apre sa, li konmanse kenbe tèt avè l'.
2 The LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldeans, bands of the Syrians, bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke by his servants the prophets.
Lè sa a, Seyè a voye ansasen soti nan peyi Babilòn, nan peyi Siri, nan peyi Moab ak nan peyi Amon vin dèyè Jojakim. Li lage yo nan peyi Jida a pou yo fini avè l' dapre sa Seyè a te di nan bouch pwofèt yo, sèvitè l' yo.
3 Surely at the commandment of the LORD this came on Judah, to remove them out of his sight for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did,
Sa te rive peyi Jida a paske Seyè a te vle wete pèp peyi Jida a devan je l' poutèt peche wa Manase te fè yo,
4 and also for the innocent blood that he shed; for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the LORD would not pardon.
ak pou kantite moun inonsan li te touye jouk tout lari Jerizalèm te plen san. Seyè a pa t' vle padonnen ankò.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are not they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Tout rès istwa Jojakim lan, sa li te fè yo, n'a jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo.
6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers, and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.
Lè Jojakim mouri se Jojakin, pitit gason li a, ki moute wa nan plas li.
7 The king of Egypt did not come out of his land any more; for the king of Babylon had taken, from the brook of Egypt to the river Euphrates, all that belonged to the king of Egypt.
Wa peyi Lejip la pa janm soti kite peyi l' la ankò, paske wa peyi Babilòn lan te pran tout zòn ki te pou wa peyi Lejip la, depi larivyè Lefrat rive nan ravin Lejip.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s name was Nehushta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Jojakin te gen dizwitan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan twa mwa. Manman l' te rele Neouchta. Se te pitit fi Elnatan, moun lavil Jerizalèm.
9 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that his father had done.
Li fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a tankou papa l'.
10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up to Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.
Se sou reny li lame Nèbikadneza, wa peyi Babilòn lan, te mache sou lavil Jerizalèm. Yo sènen lavil la.
11 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to the city while his servants were besieging it,
Pandan lame a te sènen lavil la, Nèbikadneza vin atake lavil la li menm menm.
12 and Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon—he, his mother, his servants, his princes, and his officers; and the king of Babylon captured him in the eighth year of his reign.
Lè sa a, Jojakin, wa peyi Jida a, al rann tèt li bay wa Babilòn lan ansanm ak manman l', pitit gason l' yo, chèf lame l' yo ak chèf palè li yo. Wa a fè yo tout prizonye. Lè sa a, Nèbikadneza t'ap mache sou witan depi li te wa.
13 He carried out from there all the treasures of the LORD’s house and the treasures of the king’s house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the LORD’s temple, as the LORD had said.
Li pran tout richès ki te nan Tanp Seyè a ak nan palè wa a. Li kraze tout bèl bagay an lò Salomon, wa pèp Izrayèl la, te fè pou sèvi nan Tanp Seyè a, jan Seyè a te fè konn sa depi lontan an.
14 He carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valor, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths. No one remained except the poorest people of the land.
Nèbikadneza depòte dènye moun ki te lavil Jerizalèm, tout chèf yo, tout grannèg yo, li depòte tout atizan yo ak tout bòs fòjon yo. Sa te fè dimil (10.000) moun antou. Se moun pòv yo ase li kite nan peyi Jida a.
15 He carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, with the king’s mother, the king’s wives, his officers, and the chief men of the land. He carried them into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Nèbikadneza fè Jojakin prizonye ansanm ak manman l', madanm li yo, chèf nan gouvènman l' yo ak tout grannèg peyi Jida yo. Li depòte yo, li pran yo lavil Jerizalèm li mennen yo peyi Babilòn.
16 All the men of might, even seven thousand, and the craftsmen and the smiths one thousand, all of them strong and fit for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
Wa peyi Babilòn lan te depòte antou sètmil (7.000) prizonye nan peyi Babilòn, ansanm ak mil atizan ak bòs fòjon san konte vanyan gason ki te ka fè lagè.
17 The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s father’s brother, king in his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
Apre sa, Nèbikadneza pran Matanya, tonton wa Jojakin, li mete l' wa nan peyi Jida. Li chanje non l', li rele l' Sedesyas.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Sedesyas te gen venteyennan lè li vin wa peyi Jida. Li pase onzan lavil Jerizalèm ap gouvènen peyi a. Manman l' te rele Amoutal. Se te pitit fi Jeremi, moun lavil Libna.
19 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
Wa Sedesyas te fè sa ki mal devan Bondye menm jan ak Jojakin.
20 For through the anger of the LORD, this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Then Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Se konsa, Seyè a te fache ni sou moun lavil Jerizalèm yo, ni sou moun peyi Jida yo jouk jou li wete yo devan je l'. Men, rive yon lè Sedesyas derefize soumèt devan Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan.
