< 2 Kings 24 >

1 In his days, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came up and Jehoiakim was his servant for three years; then he took up arms against him.
Nan jou pa li yo, Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te monte e Jojakim te vin sèvitè li pandan twazan. Epi, konsa, li te vire fè rebèl kont li.
2 And the Lord sent against him bands of the Chaldaeans and of the Edomites and of the Moabites and of the children of Ammon; sending them against Judah for its destruction, as he had said by his servants the prophets.
SENYÈ a te voye kont li twoup a Kaldeyen yo, twoup a Siryen yo, twoup Moabit yo ak twoup Amonit yo. Li te voye yo kont Juda pou detwi li, selon pawòl ke SENYÈ a te pale pa sèvitè li yo, pwofèt yo.
3 Only by the word of the Lord did this fate come on Judah, to take them away from before his face; because of the sins of Manasseh and all the evil he did;
Anverite, sou kòmand SENYÈ a, li te rive Juda, pou retire yo devan zye Li akoz peche a Manassé yo selon tout sa ke li te fè yo,
4 And because of the death of those who had done no wrong, for he made Jerusalem full of the blood of the upright; and the Lord had no forgiveness for it.
anplis, ak san inosan li te vèse yo. Paske li te ranpli Jérusalem avèk san inosan e SENYÈ a pa t padone sa.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Jojakim yo avèk tout sa ke li te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Juda Yo?
6 So Jehoiakim went to rest with his fathers; and Jehoiachin his son became king in his place.
Konsa, Jojakim te dòmi avèk papa zansèt li yo e Jojakin, fis li a, te vin wa nan plas li.
7 And the king of Egypt did not come out of his land again, for the king of Babylon had taken all his country, from the stream of Egypt to the river Euphrates.
Wa Égypte la pa t sòti nan peyi li ankò, paske wa Babylone nan te kaptire tout sa ki te pou wa Égypte la soti nan flèv Égypte la jis rive nan Rivyè Euphrate la.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months, and his mother's name was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Jojakin te gen di-zuit ane lè li te devni wa e li te renye twa mwa Jérusalem. Non manman li se te Néhuschtha, fi a Elnathan an Jérusalem.
9 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father had done.
Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a, selon tout sa ke papa li te konn fè yo.
10 At that time the armies of Nebuchadnezzar came up to Jerusalem and the town was shut in on every side.
Nan tan sa a, sèvitè a wa Babylone yo te monte Jérusalem e vil la te antre anba syèj.
11 And Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came there, while his servants were shutting in the town;
Epi Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan te rive nan vil la pandan sèvitè li yo t ap fè syèj li.
12 Then Jehoiachin, king of Judah, went out to the king of Babylon, with his mother and his servants and his chiefs and his unsexed servants; and in the eighth year of his rule the king of Babylon took him.
Jojakin, wa Juda a, te sòti kote wa a Babylone nan, li menm avèk manman li, sèvitè li yo avèk kapitèn li yo ak ofisye li yo. Konsa, wa a Babylone nan te pran li an kaptivite nan uityèm ane règn pa li a.
13 And he took away all the stored wealth of the Lord's house, and the goods from the king's store-house, cutting up all the gold vessels which Solomon, king of Israel, had made in the house of the Lord, as the Lord had said.
Li te pote fè sòti depi la, tout trezò lakay SENYÈ a ak trezò lakay wa a. Li te koupe an mòso tout veso lò ke Salomon, wa Israël la, te fè nan tanp SENYÈ a, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te di a.
14 And he took away all the people of Jerusalem and all the chiefs and all the men of war, ten thousand prisoners; and all the expert workmen and the metal-workers; only the poorest sort of the people of the land were not taken away.
Konsa, li te mennen an egzil tout Jérusalem avèk tout kapitèn ak tout moun avèk gwo kouraj yo; di-mil kaptif, avèk tout mèt ouvriye ak tout sila ki konn fòme oswa fonn metal yo.
15 He took Jehoiachin a prisoner to Babylon, with his mother and his wives and his unsexed servants and the great men of the land; he took them all as prisoners from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Konsa, li te mennen Jokajin sòti an egzil Babylone, anplis, manman a wa a avèk madanm li yo, ofisye li yo ak tout mesye ki te chèf dirijan peyi yo. Li te mennen yo ale an egzil soti Jérusalem jis rive Babylone.
16 And all the men of war, seven thousand of them, and a thousand expert workmen and metal-workers, all of them strong and able to take up arms, the king of Babylon took away as prisoners into Babylon.
Tout mesye gwo kouraj ak pwisans yo, sèt-mil, mèt ouvriye yo, mil, tout te plen avèk fòs e pare pou fè lagè. Tout sila yo, wa Babylone nan te mennen an egzil Babylone.
17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah, his father's brother, king in place of Jehoiachin, changing his name to Zedekiah.
Epi wa Babylone nan te fè tonton Jokajin nan, Matthania, wa nan plas li e li te chanje non li an Sédécias.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he was king in Jerusalem for eleven years; his mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Sédécias te gen laj a venteyen ane lè l te devni wa a, e li te renye pandan onzan Jérusalem. Non manman li se te Hamuthal, fis a Jérémie an nan Libna.
19 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Jehoiakim had done.
Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a, selon tout sa ke Jojakim te konn fè yo.
20 And because of the wrath of the Lord, this came about in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had sent them all away from before him: and Zedekiah took up arms against the king of Babylon.
Paske akoz kòlè SENYÈ a, tout sa te rive Jérusalem avèk Juda jiskaske Li te jete yo deyò prezans Li. Epi Sédécias te fè rebèl kont wa Babylone nan.
