2 Chronicles 35
1 Now Josiah kept the Passover to the Lord in Jerusalem, and it was immolated on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Epi Josias te selebre fèt Pak a SENYÈ a Jérusalem. Yo te touye bèt pou Pak la sou katòzyèm jou nan premye mwa a.
2 And he appointed the priests in their offices, and he exhorted them to minister in the house of the Lord.
Li te plase prèt yo nan pozisyon pa yo e te ankouraje yo nan sèvis lakay SENYÈ a.
3 Also, he spoke with the Levites, by whose instruction all of Israel was sanctified to the Lord, saying: “Place the ark in the sanctuary of the temple, which Solomon, the son of David, the king of Israel, built. For never again shall you carry it. Instead, now you shall minister to the Lord your God, and to his people Israel.
Anplis, li te di a Levit ki te enstwi tout Israël yo, e ki te sen a SENYÈ a: “Mete lach SENYÈ a nan kay ke Salomon, fis a David la, wa Israël la, te bati a. Li p ap ankò yon chaj sou zepòl nou. Alò, koulye a sèvi SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, avèk pèp Li a, Israël.
4 And prepare yourselves by your houses and families, within each division, just as David, the king of Israel, instructed, and just as his son Solomon has written.
Prepare nou menm selon lakay papa zansèt nou yo nan divizyon nou yo selon ekriti a David la, wa Israël la e selon ekriti a fis li a, Salomon.
5 And minister in the sanctuary, by the Levitical families and companies.
Anplis, kanpe nan lye sen an selon divizyon lakay papa zansèt nou yo ak frè nou yo ak selon Levit yo, pa divizyon lakay papa zansèt nou yo.
6 And having been sanctified, immolate the Passover. And then prepare your brothers, so that they may be able to act in accord with the words which the Lord has spoken by the hand of Moses.”
Alò, touye bèt Pak la, sanktifye nou e prepare pou frè nou yo pou fè selon pawòl SENYÈ a, selon Moïse.”
7 After this, Josiah gave to all the people, those who had been found there at the solemnity of the Passover, thirty thousand lambs and young goats from the flocks, and other kinds of small cattle, and also three thousand oxen. All these were from the substance of the king.
Josias te fè kontribisyon pou pèp la, tout sa ki te prezan, bann jenn mouton yo ak jenn kabrit yo, tout pou ofrann Pak la, an kantite trant-mil, plis twa-mil towo. Sila yo te sòti nan byen ki te pou wa a.
8 Also, his rulers offered what they had vowed freely, as much for the people as for the priests and Levites. Moreover, Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, rulers of the house of the Lord, gave to the priests, in order to observe the Passover, two thousand six hundred small cattle, and three hundred oxen.
Anplis, ofisye pa li yo te fè kontribisyon a yon ofrann bòn volonte a pèp la, prèt yo avèk Levit yo. Hilkija, Zacharie, avèk Jehiel, chèf lakay Bondye yo, te bay a prèt yo pou Pak la, yon ofrann de-mil-sis-san bèt ki sòti nan bann mouton yo, avèk twa-san towo.
9 And Conaniah, with Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brothers, indeed also Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, rulers of the Levites, gave to the rest of the Levites, in order to celebrate the Passover, five thousand small cattle, and five hundred oxen.
Conania osi avèk Schemaeja ak Nethaneel, frè li yo, Haschabia, Jeïel avèk Jozabad, ofisye Levit yo, te kontribye a Levit yo pou ofrann Pak la, senk-mil ki sòti nan bann mouton an ak senk-san towo.
10 And the ministry was prepared. And the priests stood in their office, and the Levites also stood in their companies, according to the order of the king.
Pou sa, sèvis la te fin prepare e prèt yo te kanpe nan estasyon pa yo avèk Levit yo nan divizyon pa yo selon lòd a wa a.
11 And the Passover was immolated. And the priests sprinkled the blood with their hand, and the Levites drew away the pelts of the holocausts.
Yo te touye bèt Pak yo e pandan prèt yo t ap aspèje san ki te resevwa soti nan men Levit yo, epi Levit yo t ap retire pwal yo.
12 And they put these aside, so that they might give them to each one, by their houses and families, and so that they might be offered to the Lord, just as it was written in the book of Moses. And with the oxen, they acted similarly.
Yo te retire ofrann brile yo pou yo ta kab bay yo selon divizyon lakay papa zansèt yo pou pèp la pou prezante a SENYÈ a jan sa ekri nan liv Moïse la. Yo te fè sa tou avèk towo yo.
13 And they roasted the Passover above fire, in accord with what was written in the law. Yet truly, the victims of peace offerings they boiled in cauldrons and kettles and pots. And they promptly distributed these to all the common people.
Konsa, yo te boukannen bèt Pak yo, sou dife selon règleman an, yo te bouyi bagay sen yo nan bonm, chodyè ak nan kaswòl e yo te pote yo avèk vitès a tout pèp òdinè yo.
14 Then afterward, they made preparations for themselves and for the priests. Indeed, the priests had been occupied in the oblations of the holocausts and the fat offerings, even until night. Therefore, the Levites made preparations for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron, last.
Apre yo te prepare pou yo menm e pou prèt yo, akoz prèt yo, fis a Aaron yo t ap ofri ofrann brile avèk grès jis rive nan aswè. Pou sa, Levit yo te prepare pou yo menm ak pou prèt yo, fis a Aaron yo.
15 Now the singers, the sons of Asaph, were standing in their order, according to the instruction of David, and of Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the prophets of the king. Truly, the porters kept watch at each gate, so as not to depart from their ministry even for one moment. And for this reason, their brothers, the Levites, prepared foods for them.
Anplis, chantè yo, fis a Asaph yo te nan estasyon pa yo selon kòmand a David la, Asaph, Héman, avèk Jeudthun, konseye a wa a; epi gadyen pòtay te nan chak pòtay. Yo pa t oblije sòti nan sèvis pa yo akoz frè yo te prepare pou yo.
16 And so, the entire worship ritual of the Lord was completed on that day, so that they observed the Passover and offered holocausts upon the altar of the Lord, in accord with the precept of king Josiah.
Konsa, tout sèvis SENYÈ a te prepare nan jou sa a pou selebre Pak la e pou ofri ofrann brile yo sou lotèl SENYÈ a selon kòmand a Wa Josias la.
17 And the sons of Israel, who had been found there, kept the Passover at that time, with the solemnity of unleavened bread, for seven days.
Fis Israël ki te prezan yo te selebre Pak la nan lè sa a ak Fèt Pen San Ledven an pandan sèt jou.
18 There was no Passover similar to this one in Israel, from the days of Samuel the prophet. And neither did anyone, out of all the kings of Israel, keep such a Passover as did Josiah, the priests and Levites, and all those of Judah and Israel who had been found, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Pa t janm gen yon selebrasyon Pak tankou sa an Israël depi jou a Samuel yo, pwofèt la. Ni pa te gen okenn nan wa Israël yo ki te selebre yon Pak jan Josias te fè avèk prèt yo, Levit yo, tout Juda, Israël ki te prezan yo ak pèp Jérusalem nan.
19 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah, this Passover was celebrated.
Se te nan uityèm ane règn Josias la, ke Pak sa a te selebre.
20 After Josiah had repaired the temple, Neco, the king of Egypt, ascended to fight at Carchemish, beside the Euphrates. And Josiah went out to meet him.
Apre tout sa, lè Josias te mete tanp lan an lòd, Néco, wa Egypte la, te vin monte pou fè lagè Carkemisch, sou rivyè Euphrate la, e Josias te parèt deyò pou rankontre li.
21 But he sent messengers to him, saying: “What is there between me and you, O king of Judah? I have not come against you today. Instead, I am fighting against another house, to which God instructed me to go promptly. Refrain from acting against God, who is with me, otherwise he may kill you.”
Men Néco te voye mesaje yo kote li. Li te di: “Kisa nou gen pou fè youn avèk lòt, O Wa Juda a? Se pa kont ou ke m ap vini jodi a, men kont kay avèk sila mwen angaje nan lagè yo. Bondye te kòmande mwen fè prese. Byen avèti ke se Bondye ki avè m nan, pou Li pa detwi ou.”
22 Josiah was not willing to return. Instead, he prepared for war against him. Neither would he agree to the words of Neco from the mouth of God. In truth, he traveled so that he might do battle in the field of Megiddo.
Sepandan, Josias te refize vire kite li, men li te kache idantite li pou l ta kab fè lagè avèk li. Li pa t koute pawòl a Néco ki soti nan bouch Bondye a, men li te vin fè lagè sou plèn Méguiddo a.
23 And there, having been wounded by archers, he said to his servants: “Lead me away from the battle. For I have been severely wounded.”
Achè yo te tire Wa Josias, e wa a te di a sèvitè li yo: “Ale avè m, sòti, paske mwen blese byen grav.”
24 And they took him from the chariot, into another chariot which was following him, as was the custom of kings. And they transported him to Jerusalem. And he died, and he was buried in the mausoleum of his fathers. And all of Judah and Jerusalem mourned for him,
Pou sa, sèvitè li yo te retire li nan cha a, e yo te pote li nan dezyèm cha li te genyen an. Yo te mennen li Jérusalem kote li te mouri, e li te antere nan tonm a papa zansèt li yo. Tout Juda avèk Jérusalem te kriye pou Josias.
25 most of all Jeremiah. All the singing men and women repeat his lamentations over Josiah, even to the present day. And this has become like a law in Israel. Behold, it is found written in the Lamentations.
Konsa, Jérémie te chante yon lamantasyon pou Josias. Epi tout chantè yo, ni gason, ni fanm pale sou Josias nan lamantasyon yo jis rive jodi a. Konsa, yo te fè avèk yo yon òdonans an Israël. Men gade, yo ekri nan Lamantasyon yo.
26 Now the rest of the words of Josiah, and his mercies, which were instructed by the law of the Lord,
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Josias yo avèk zèv fidelite pa li yo, jan sa ki ekri nan lalwa SENYÈ yo,
27 and also his works, the first and the last, have been written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
ak zèv li yo, soti nan premye a jis rive nan dènye a, men vwala, yo ekri nan Liv Wa A Israël Avèk Juda yo.
