< 1 Kings 13 >
1 And behold, there came a man of God from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, to Bethel; and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.
Alò, vwala, te vini yon nonm Bondye soti Juda rive Béthel pa pawòl SENYÈ a, pandan Jéroboam te kanpe akote lotèl la pou brile lansan an.
2 And he cried against the altar by the word of Jehovah, and said, O altar, altar! thus saith Jehovah: Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he sacrifice the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burned upon thee.
Li te kriye kont lotèl la pa pawòl SENYÈ a. Li te di: “O lotèl, lotèl, konsa di SENYÈ a: ‘Veye byen, yon fis va ne nan kay David la. Josias va non li. Epi sou ou, li va fè sakrifis a prèt ki brile lansan sou ou yo, ak zo Kretyen yo ki va brile sou ou.’”
3 And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign that Jehovah hath spoken: Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.
Konsa, li te bay yon sign nan menm jou sa, e li te di: “Sa se sign ke SENYÈ a te pale a: Gade byen, lotèl la va vin fann separe e sann ki sou li yo va vide deyò.”
4 And it came to pass when the king heard the word of the man of God, which he cried against the altar in Bethel, that Jeroboam stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand which he stretched out against him dried up, so that he could not bring it back again to him.
Alò, lè wa a te tande pawòl a nonm Bondye a, ke li te kriye kont lotèl Béthel la, Jéroboam te lonje men l soti nan lotèl la. Li te di: “Sezi li.” Men men ke li te lonje kont li an te vin sèch, jiskaske li pa t kab rale retounen l kote li.
5 And the altar was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.
Lotèl la osi te ouvri fann e sann yo te vide nèt soti nan lotèl la, selon sign ke nonm a Bondye a te bay selon pawòl SENYÈ a.
6 And the king answered and said to the man of God, Intreat now Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me again. And the man of God intreated Jehovah, and the king's hand was restored to him again, and became as before.
Wa a te di a nonm Bondye a: “Souple, fè yon lapriyè a SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a e mande pou mwen, pou men m kapab vin restore a mwen menm.” Konsa, nonm Bondye a te priye a SENYÈ a, epi men a wa a te restore de li menm. Li te vin jan li te ye avan an.
7 And the king said to the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a present.
Alò, wa a te di a nonm Bondye a: “Vin lakay la avèk mwen pou rafrechi ou, e mwen va ba ou yon rekonpans.”
8 And the man of God said to the king, If thou wilt give me half thy house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place;
Men nonm Bondye a te di a wa a: “Menmsi ou te ban mwen menm mwatye kay ou, mwen pa t ap prale avèk ou, ni mwen pa t ap manje pen, ni bwè dlo nan plas sa a.
9 for so was it charged me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou shalt eat no bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way that thou shalt go.
Paske se konsa li te kòmande mwen pa pawòl SENYÈ a e te di: ‘Ou pa pou manje okenn pen, ni bwè dlo, ni retounen pa chemen ke ou te vini an.’”
10 So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he had come to Bethel.
Pou sa, li te fè yon lòt chemen e li pa t retounen pa chemen ke li te vini Béthel la.
11 Now there dwelt a certain old prophet in Bethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel; the words that he had spoken to the king, them they told also to their father.
Alò, yon pwofèt granmoun t ap viv Béthel, epi fis li yo te vini pou te di li tout zèv ke nonm Bondye a te fè pandan jou sa nan Béthel. Yo te pale li pawòl yo ke li te pale a wa a.
12 And their father said to them, Which way went he? for his sons had seen which way the man of God went, who came from Judah.
Papa yo te di yo: “Se ki direksyon li te pran?” Alò, fis li yo te wè direksyon ke nonm Bondye ki te sòti Juda a te pran an.
13 And he said to his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass; and he rode thereon,
Epi li te di a fis li yo: “Sele bourik la pou mwen.” Konsa, yo te sele bourik la pou li e li te sòti sou li.
14 and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under a terebinth; and he said to him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I am.
Konsa, li te ale dèyè nonm Bondye a. Li te twouve li te chita anba yon pye bwadchenn. Konsa, li te mande l: “Èske ou menm se nonm Bondye ki te sòti Juda a?” Li te reponn: “Se mwen”.
15 And he said to him, Come home with me, and eat bread.
Konsa, li te di li: “Vin lakay mwen pou manje pen.”
16 And he said, I cannot return with thee, nor go in with thee; neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place.
Li te di: “Mwen p ap kab retounen avèk ou, ni ale avèk ou, ni mwen p ap manje pen ni bwè dlo avèk ou nan plas sa a.
17 For it was said to me by the word of Jehovah, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou wentest.
Paske yon lòd rive jwenn mwen pa pawòl SENYÈ a: ‘Ou pa pou manje pen, ni bwè dlo, ni pa retounen pa chemen ke ou te vini an.’”
18 And he said to him, I am a prophet also as thou art; and an angel spoke to me by the word of Jehovah saying, Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread and drink water. He lied unto him.
Li te di li: “Mwen menm se yon pwofèt tankou ou, e yon zanj te pale avèk mwen pa pawòl SENYÈ, e li te di: ‘Mennen li retounen lakay ou avèk ou pou l kab manje pen ak bwè dlo. Men se manti li t ap fè.’”
19 Then he went back with him, and ate bread in his house, and drank water.
Konsa, li te retounen avèk li e te manje pen lakay li a e te bwè dlo.
20 And it came to pass as they sat at the table, that the word of Jehovah came to the prophet that brought him back;
Alò, li te vin rive, pandan yo te chita sou tab la a, ke pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a pwofèt ki te fè li retounen an;
21 and he cried to the man of God that came from Judah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the word of Jehovah, and hast not kept the commandment that Jehovah thy God commanded thee,
epi li te kriye a nonm Bondye ki te sòti Juda a, e li te di: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Akoz ou te dezobeyi kòmandman SENYÈ a e pa t swiv lòd ke SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, te kòmande ou a,
22 but camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place of which he said to thee, Eat no bread and drink no water; thy carcase shall not come to the sepulchre of thy fathers.
men ou te retounen, ou te manje pen e bwè dlo nan plas kote Li te di ou: “Pa manje okenn pen ni bwè okenn dlo a”; kò ou p ap rive nan tonm papa ou a.’”
23 And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled the ass for him, for the prophet that he had brought back;
Li te vin rive lè li te fin manje pen an e bwè a, ke li te sele bourik la pou li, pou pwofèt la te mennen li retounen.
24 and he departed. And a lion met him by the way and slew him; and his corpse was cast in the way, and the ass stood by it; the lion also stood by the corpse.
Alò, lè li t ap prale, yon lyon te rankontre li sou wout la e te touye li, kò li te jete sou wout la, avèk bourik la kanpe akote li ak lyon an osi te kanpe akote kò a.
25 And behold, men passed by, and saw the corpse cast in the way and the lion standing by the corpse; and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet dwelt.
Epi vwala, moun yo t ap pase kote l, e yo te wè kò a jete sou wout la ak lyon an ki te kanpe akote kò a. Konsa, yo te rive pale sa nan vil kote pwofèt granmoun nan te rete a.
26 And the prophet that brought him back from the way heard [of it] and said, It is the man of God who was disobedient to the word of Jehovah; therefore Jehovah has delivered him to the lion, which has torn him and slain him, according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke to him.
Alò, lè pwofèt ki te mennen li retounen soti nan chemen an te tande sa, li te di: “Se nonm Bondye ki te dezobeyi lòd SENYÈ a. Pou sa, SENYÈ a te bay li a lyon, ki te chire li e touye li selon pawòl ke SENYÈ a te pale li a.”
27 And he spoke to his sons saying, Saddle me the ass; and they saddled it.
Alò, li te pale avèk fis li yo e te di: “Sele bourik la pou mwen.” Epi yo te sele li.
28 And he went and found his corpse cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the corpse: the lion had not eaten the corpse, nor torn the ass.
Li te ale twouve kò li ki te jete sou wout la avèk bourik la ak lyon ki te kanpe akote kò a. Lyon an pa t manje kò a, ni li pa t chire bourik la.
29 And the prophet took up the corpse of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back; and the old prophet came into the city, to mourn and to bury him.
Konsa, pwofèt la te leve pran kò a nonm Bondye a. Li te kouche li sou bourik la, e li te mennen li retounen. Li te rive nan vil a pwofèt granmoun nan pou kriye pou li e antere li.
30 And he laid his corpse in his own sepulchre; and they mourned over him [saying], Alas, my brother!
Li te kouche kadav la nan pwòp tonm pa li, e yo te kriye pou li, e te di: “Anmwey, frè m!”
31 And it came to pass after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons saying, When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre in which the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones.
Apre li te fin antere li, li te pale avèk fis li yo e te di: “Lè m mouri, antere mwen nan tonm kote nonm Bondye a antere a. Kouche zo pa m yo akote zo pa l yo.
32 For the word that he cried by the word of Jehovah against the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the high places that are in the cities of Samaria, shall certainly come to pass.
Paske bagay la, anverite, va rive ke li te kriye selon pawòl SENYÈ a kont lotèl la Béthel ak kont tout kay plas wo ki nan vil a Samarie yo.”
33 After this thing Jeroboam turned not from his evil way, but made again from all classes of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he became [one] of the priests of the high places.
Apre evenman sa a, Jéroboam pa t kite chemen mechanste li, men ankò li te fè prèt pou wo plas yo soti nan tout pèp la. Nenpòt moun ki ta vle fè sa, li te òdone pou devni prèt nan wo plas yo.
34 And by this thing there was sin on the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.
Evenman sa a te devni peche lakay Jéroboam, jis menm pou ta detwi kay li e fè l disparèt sou fas tè a.
