2 Kings 16
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham became king of Judah.
Wa Peka, pitit Remalya, te gen tan gen disetan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl lè Akaz, pitit Jotam, moute wa peyi Jida.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD his God.
Akaz te gen ventan lè sa a. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan sèzan. Men, li pa t' mache dwat devan Seyè a, Bondye li a, tankou David, zansèt li a, te fè l'.
3 Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
Li te pito fè tankou wa peyi Izrayèl yo, li menm rive ofri pwòp pitit gason l' pou yo boule pou zidòl yo, dapre vye prensip krimenèl nasyon Seyè a te mete deyò pou fè plas pou moun Izrayèl yo te konn swiv.
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
Li fè touye bèt, li boule lansan nan tout tanp zidòl yo sou ti mòn yo ak anba gwo pyebwa.
5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to wage war against Jerusalem. They besieged Ahaz but could not overcome him.
Se sou reny Akaz, Rezin, wa peyi Siri a, ak Peka, pitit gason Remalya a, wa peyi Izrayèl, mache sou lavil Jerizalèm pou yo atake l'. Yo fèmen Akaz anndan lavil la, men yo pa t' ka pran lavil la.
6 At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram, drove out the men of Judah, and sent the Edomites into Elath, where they live to this day.
Se lè sa a wa peyi Edon an pwofite pou reprann lavil Elat nan men moun peyi Jida yo, li mete yo deyò nan lavil la. Se konsa moun Edon yo tounen nan lavil la kote yo rete jouk jounen jòdi a.
7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hands of the kings of Aram and Israel, who are rising up against me.”
Lè sa a, Akaz voye mesaj bay Tiglat Pilesè, wa peyi Lasiri a, pou di l' konsa: —M'ap sèvi ou tankou pitit ou. Tanpri, vin delivre m' anba men wa peyi Siri a ak wa peyi Izrayèl la ki vin atake m'.
8 Ahaz also took the silver and gold found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king’s palace, and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
Akaz pran ajan ak lò ki te nan tanp lan ak nan trezò palè wa a, li voye yo fè Tiglat Pilesè, wa peyi Lasiri a, kado.
9 So the king of Assyria responded to him, marched up to Damascus, and captured it. He took its people to Kir as captives and put Rezin to death.
Wa Lasiri a koute l' vre, li moute al atake lavil Damas, li pran l'. Li depòte tout moun ki te rete la, mennen yo lavil Ki, epi li fè touye Rezin.
10 Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria. On seeing the altar in Damascus, King Ahaz sent Uriah the priest a model of the altar and complete plans for its construction.
Lè wa Akaz te lavil Damas pou l' te kontre ak Tiglat Pilesè, wa peyi Lasiri a, li wè lotèl ki te la a. Li leve plan lotèl la, li voye l' bay Ouri, prèt la.
11 And Uriah the priest built the altar according to all the instructions King Ahaz had sent from Damascus, and he completed it by the time King Ahaz had returned.
Se konsa, Ouri gen tan bati yon lotèl sou modèl wa Akaz te voye ba li soti Damas la anvan menm Akaz tounen soti Damas.
12 When the king came back from Damascus and saw the altar, he approached it and presented offerings on it.
Lè Akaz tounen soti Damas, li wè lotèl la, li pwoche, li moute bò lotèl la.
13 He offered his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings on the altar.
Li fè boule yon bèt sou li, li fè ofrann grenn jaden. Li vide yon ofrann diven ak san bèt li te ofri pou di mèsi a sou lotèl la tou.
14 He also took the bronze altar that stood before the LORD from the front of the temple (between the new altar and the house of the LORD) and he put it on the north side of the new altar.
Lotèl an kwiv ki apa pou Seyè a te ant lotèl sa a ak kay Seyè a. Akaz fè deplase l' wete devan Tanp lan, li mete l' sou kote lòt lotèl la sou bò nò.
15 Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “Offer on the great altar the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, and the king’s burnt offering and grain offering, as well as the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings of all the people of the land. Sprinkle on the altar all the blood of the burnt offerings and sacrifices. But I will use the bronze altar to seek guidance.”
Epi Akaz bay Ouri lòd sa a: —Se sou gwo lotèl mwen an pou ou fè ofrann bèt yo boule nèt chak maten an ansanm ak ofrann grenn jaden chak aswè a. Se sou li pou ou fè ofrann bèt pou boule nèt ak ofrann grenn jaden pou wa a ak pou tout pèp la. Se sou li w'a ofri san bèt y'a touye yo ak diven ofrann yo. Se sou li w'a vide san tout bèt yo ofri pou boule nèt ak bèt y'a ofri bay Bondye. Pou lotèl an kwiv la menm, kite sa sou kont mwen.
16 So Uriah the priest did just as King Ahaz had commanded.
Ozyas, prèt la, fè tou sa wa Akaz te ba li lòd fè.
17 King Ahaz also cut off the frames of the movable stands and removed the bronze basin from each of them. He took down the Sea from the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone base.
Apre sa, wa Akaz fè demoute kabwa an kwiv yo. Li fè wete gwo basin an kwiv ki te chita sou bèf yo, li fè mete l' sou yon pave wòch.
18 And on account of the king of Assyria, he removed the Sabbath canopy they had built in the temple and closed the royal entryway outside the house of the LORD.
Lèfini, pou l' te fè wa peyi Lasiri a plezi, li wete platfòm yo te bati anndan Tanp lan pou jou repo a. Li fè fèmen pòt deyò a kote wa a te konn pase pou antre nan Tanp lan.
19 As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Tout rès istwa wa Akaz la, tou sa li te fè, n'a jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo.
20 And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David, and his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.
Lè wa Akaz mouri, yo antere l' menm kote ak zansèt li yo nan Lavil David. Se Ezekyas, pitit li, ki moute wa nan plas li.
