2 Chronicles 14
1 And Abia slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead: in his days the land was quiet ten years.
Konsa, Abija te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e yo te antere li nan lavil David la. Fis li a, Asa, te vin wa nan plas li. Peyi a te rete kalm e san pwoblèm pandan dizan pandan jou li yo.
2 And Asa did that which was good and pleasing in the sight of his God, and he destroyed the altars of foreign worship, and the high places.
Asa te fè byen ak sa ki dwat nan zye SENYÈ a, Bondye li a,
3 And broke the statues, and cut down the groves.
paske li te retire lotèl etranje yo avèk wo plas yo, e li te chire pilye sakre yo avèk Asherim yo.
4 And he commanded Juda to seek the Lord the God of their fathers, and to do the law, and all the commandments.
Li te kòmande Juda pou chache SENYÈ a zansèt yo a, e swiv lalwa avèk kòmandman an.
5 And he took away out of all the cities of Juda the altars, and temples, and reigned in peace.
Li te osi retire wo plas yo avèk lotèl lansan yo soti nan tout vil Juda yo. Wayòm nan te rete kalm anba li.
6 He built also strong cities in Juda, for he was quiet, and there had no wars risen in his time, the Lord giving peace.
Li te bati vil fòtifye Juda yo, akoz peyi a te san pwoblèm e pa t gen okenn moun ki te fè lagè avèk li pandan ane sila yo, akoz SENYÈ a te ba li repo.
7 And he said to Juda: Let us build these cities, and compass them with walls, and fortify them with towers, and gates, and bars, while all is quiet from wars, because we have sought the Lord the God of our fathers, and he hath given us peace round about. So they built, and there was no hinderance in building.
Paske li te di a Juda: “Annou bati vil sila yo e antoure yo avèk miray avèk wo tou, pòtay avèk ba an fè. Peyi a toujou pou nou akoz nou te chache SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Nou te chache Li, e Li te bannou repo sou tout kote.” Konsa yo te bati e yo te byen reyisi.
8 And Asa had in his army of men that bore shields and spears of Juda three hundred thousand, and of Benjamin that bore shields and drew bows, two hundred and eighty thousand, all these were most valiant men.
Alò, Asa te gen yon lame a twa-san-mil mesye soti nan Juda, avèk gran boukliye defans ak lans e de-san-katreven-mil soti nan Benjamin ki te pote boukliye defans e te manyen banza. Tout nan yo, te gèrye ki plen kouraj.
9 And Zara the Ethiopian came out against them with his army of ten hundred thousand men, and with three hundred chariots: and he came as far as Maresa.
Alò, Zérach, Etyopyen an, te vin parèt kont yo avèk yon lame a yon-milyon moun ak twa-san cha, e li te rive nan Maréscha.
10 And Asa went out to meet him, and set his army in array for battle in the vale of Sephata, which is near Maresa:
Pou sa, Asa te sòti pou rankontre li, e yo te parèt nan chan batay yo nan vale Maréschja a.
11 And he called upon the Lord God, and said: O Lord, there is no difference with thee, whether thou help with few, or with many: help us, O Lord our God: for with confidence in thee, and in thy name, we are come against this multitude. O Lord thou art our God, let not man prevail against thee.
Konsa, Asa te rele SENYÈ a, Bondye li a. Li te di: “SENYÈ, nanpwen lòt sof ke Ou menm pou ede pami pwisan yo, ak sila ki san fòs. Pou sa, ede nou, O SENYÈ, Bondye nou an; paske nou mete konfyans nan Ou, e nan non Ou, nou te vini kont gran foul sila a. O SENYÈ, se Ou ki Bondye nou an. Pa kite lòm pran viktwa kont Ou menm.”
12 And the Lord terrified the Ethiopians before Asa and Juda: and the Ethiopians fled.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te boulvèse Etyopyen devan Asa yo ak devan Juda yo, e Etyopyen yo te sove ale.
13 And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them to Gerara: and the Ethiopians fell even to utter destruction, for the Lord slew them, and his army fought against them, and they were destroyed. And they took abundance of spoils,
Asa avèk moun ki te avèk li yo te kouri dèyè yo jis rive Guérar. Yon tèlman gran kantite Etyopyen te tonbe ke yo pa t kab kanpe ankò; paske yo te kraze nèt devan SENYÈ a ak devan lame Li a. Lame Juda a te pote fè sòti yon trè gran piyaj.
14 And they took all the cities round about Gerara: for a great fear was come upon all men: and they pillaged the cities, and carried off much booty.
Yo te detwi tout vil ki te antoure Guérar yo, paske laperèz SENYÈ a te fin tonbe sou vil yo. Epi yo te depouye tout vil yo, paske yo te gen anpil piyaj.
15 And they destroyed the sheepcotes, and took an infinite number of cattle, and of camels: and returned to Jerusalem.
Anplis, yo te touye sila ki te gen bèt yo, e yo te pote ale yon gran kantite mouton avèk chamo. Answit, yo te retounen Jérusalem.
