2 Kings 16
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah, Ahaz, the son of Jotham, became king of Judah.
Nan di-setyèm ane a Pékach, fis a Remalia a, Achaz, fis Jotham nan, wa Juda a, te devni wa.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king; he was ruling for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord his God, as David his father did.
Achaz te gen ventan lè li te devni wa, a e li te renye sèzan nan Jérusalem. Li pa t fè sa ki bon nan zye a SENYÈ a, jan David te konn fè a.
3 But he went in the ways of the kings of Israel, and even made his son go through the fire, copying the disgusting ways of the nations whom the Lord had sent out of the land before the children of Israel.
Men li te mache nan chemen wa Israël yo. Li menm te fè fis li pase nan dife, tankou abominasyon a nasyon ke SENYÈ a te chase mete deyò devan fis Israël yo.
4 And he made offerings, burning them in the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.
Li te fè sakrifis e li te brile lansan sou wo plas yo ak sou ti mòn anba chak pyebwa vèt yo.
5 Then Rezin, king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war; and they made an attack on Ahaz, shutting him in, but were not able to overcome him.
Alò, Retsin, wa Syrie a avèk Pékach, fis a Remalia a, wa Israël la, te monte Jérusalem pou fè lagè. Yo te fè syèj sou Achaz, men yo pa t kab venk li.
6 At that time the king of Edom got Elath back for Edom, and sent the Jews out of Elath; and the Edomites came back to Elath where they are living to this day.
Nan tan sa a Retsin, wa Syrie a, te reprann Élath pou Syrie e li te netwaye retire Jwif yo nèt nan Élath. Epi Siryen yo te vini Élath e yo rete la jis rive jodi a.
7 So Ahaz sent representatives to Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, saying, I am your servant and your son; come to my help against the kings of Aram and Israel who have taken up arms against me.
Konsa, Achaz te voye mesaje yo kote Tiglath-Piléser, wa Assyrie a. Li te di: “Mwen se sèvitè ou ak fis ou; vin delivre mwen soti nan men a wa Syrie a, avèk men a wa Israël la k ap fè soulèvman kont mwen.”
8 And Ahaz took the silver and gold which were in the house of the Lord and in the king's store-house, and sent them as an offering to the king of Assyria.
Achaz te pran ajan avèk lò ki te twouve lakay SENYÈ a ak nan kès lakay wa a pou te voye yon kado bay wa Assyrie a.
9 And the king of Assyria, in answer to his request, went up against Damascus and took it, and took its people away as prisoners to Kir, and put Rezin to death.
Konsa, wa Assyrie a te koute li, epi wa Assyrie a te monte kont Damas pou te kaptire li. Li te pote pèp li a deyò an egzil nan Kir, e li te mete Retsin a lanmò.
10 Then King Ahaz went to Damascus for a meeting with Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria; and there he saw the altar which was at Damascus; and King Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest a copy of the altar, giving the design of it and all the details of its structure.
Alò, Wa Achaz te ale kote Damas pou rankontre Tiglath-Piléser, wa Assyrie, e li te wè lotèl ki te Damas la. Konsa, Wa Achaz te voye bay Urie, prèt la, plan lotèl la avèk yon modèl li, selon tout mendèv pa li.
11 And from the copy King Ahaz sent from Damascus, Urijah made an altar and had it ready by the time King Ahaz came back from Damascus.
Konsa, Urie, prèt la te bati yon lotèl selon tout sa ke Wa Achaz te voye soti Damas, e konsa Urie, prèt la, te fè li, avan wa Achaz te vini soti Damas.
12 And when the king came from Damascus, he saw the altar; and he went up on it and made an offering on it.
Lè wa a te antre sòti Damas, wa a te wè lotèl la. Alò, wa a te pwoche lotèl la e te fè ofrann sou li.
13 He made his burned offering and his meal offering and his drink offering there, draining out the blood of his peace-offerings on the altar.
Li te brile ofrann brile li a avèk ofrann sereyal la, li te vide ofrann bwason li an e li te flite san a ofrann lapè li yo sou lotèl la.
14 And the brass altar, which was before the Lord, he took from the front of the house, from between his altar and the house of the Lord, and put it on the north side of his altar.
Lotèl bwonz lan, ki te devan SENYÈ a, li te mennen soti devan kay la, soti nan antre lotèl pa li a, lakay Senyè a e li te mete li sou kote nò lotèl pa li a.
15 And King Ahaz gave orders to Urijah the priest, saying, Make the morning burned offering and the evening meal offering and the king's burned offering and meal offering, with the burned offerings of all the people and their meal offerings and drink offerings, on the great altar, and put on it all the blood of the burned offerings and of the beasts which are offered; but the brass altar will be for my use to get directions from the Lord.
Epi Wa Achaz te kòmande Urie, prèt la, e li te di: “Sou gran lotèl la, brile ofrann brile maten an ak ofrann sereyal aswè a; epi ofrann brile wa a avèk ofrann sereyal pa li a, avèk ofrann brile a tout pèp peyi a avèk ofrann sereyal pa yo ak ofrann bwason yo; epi flite sou li tout san a ofrann brile a e tout san a sakrifis la. Men lotèl bwonz lan va sèlman pou mwen pou m kab mande konsèy ladann.
16 So Urijah the priest did everything as the king said
Pou sa, Urie, prèt la, te fè tout bagay selon sa ke Wa Achaz te kòmande a.”
17 And King Ahaz took off the sides of the wheeled bases, and took down the great water-vessel from off the brass oxen which were under it and put it on a floor of stone.
Alò, Wa Achaz te koupe retire arebò a baz yo e li te retire basen lave a sou yo. Li te osi desann lanmè a soti sou bèf bwonz ki te anba li yo, e li te mete li sou yon pave an wòch.
18 the house of the Lord, because of the king of Assyria.
Li te retire osi chemen machpye Saba a ke yo te bati nan kay la e antre eksteryè a wa a, li te retire li soti lakay SENYÈ a akoz wa Assyrie a.
19 Now the rest of the things which Ahaz did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Alò, tout lòt zèv Achaz te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa A Juda yo?
20 And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
Konsa, Achaz te dòmi avèk zansèt pa li yo, e li te antere avèk zansèt pa li yo nan lavil David la. Fis li, Ézéchias, te renye nan plas li.
