2 Chronicles 36
1 Then the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias, and made him king instead of his father in Jerusalem.
Alò, pèp peyi a te pran Joachaz, fis Josias la, e yo te fè li wa nan plas papa li Jérusalem.
2 Joachaz was three and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
Joachaz te gen venn-twazan lè l te vin wa, e li te renye twa mwa Jérusalem.
3 And the king of Egypt came to Jerusalem, and deposed him, and condemned the land in a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
Epi wa Egypte la te retire li sou pouvwa a Jérusalem, e li te egzije yon kontribisyon de san talan ajan ak yon talan lò sou peyi a.
4 And he made Eliakim his brother king in his stead, over Juda and Jerusalem: and he turned his name to Joakim: but he took Joachaz with him, and carried him away into Egypt.
Wa Egypte la te fè Éliakim, frè l la, wa sou Juda avèk Jérusalem, e li te chanje non li an Jojakim. Men Néco te pran frè li a, Joachaz e te mennen li an Égypte.
5 Joakim was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did evil before the Lord his God.
Jojakim te gen laj a venn-senkan lè l te devni wa e li te renye onzan Jérusalem. Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a, Bondye li a.
6 Against him came up Nabuchodonosor king of the Chaldeans, and led him bound in chains into Babylon.
Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te monte kont li, e te mare li avèk chenn an bwonz pou mennen li Babylone.
7 And he carried also thither the vessels of the Lord, and put them in his temple.
Anplis, Nebucadnetsar te mennen kèk nan bagay ki sòti lakay SENYÈ a Babylone, e te mete yo nan tanp Babylone nan.
8 But the rest of the acts of Joakim, and his abominations, which he wrought, and the things that were found in him, are contained in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel. And Joachin his son reigned in his stead.
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Jojakim yo avèk abominasyon ke li te fè yo, ak sa ki te twouve kont li yo, men vwala, yo ekri nan Liv A Wa A Israël Avèk Juda yo. Epi Jojakin, fis li a, te vin wa nan plas li.
9 Joachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and he did evil in the sight of the Lord.
Jojakin te gen laj a uitan lè l te vin wa, e li te renye twa mwa avèk dis jou Jérusalem. Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a.
10 And at the return of the year, king Nabuchodonosor sent, and brought him to Babylon, carrying away at the same time the most precious vessels of the house of the Lord: and he made Sedecias his uncle king over Juda and Jerusalem.
Nan kòmansman ane a, Wa Nebucadnetsar te mennen li Babylone avèk bagay byen chè ki te sòti lakay SENYÈ a. Li te fè moun fanmi li, Sédécias, wa sou Juda avèk Jérusalem.
11 Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
Sédécias te gen laj a ven-te-yen nan lè l te vin wa e li te renye pandan onzan Jérusalem.
12 And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord his God, and did not reverence the face of Jeremias the prophet speaking to him from the mouth of the Lord.
Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a, Bondye li a. Li pa t imilye li menm devan Jérémie, pwofèt ki te pale pou SENYÈ a.
13 He also revolted from king Nabuchodonosor, who had made him swear by God: and he hardened his neck and his heart, from returning to the Lord the God of Israel.
Anplis, li te fè rebèl kont Wa Nebucadnetsar ki te fè li sèmante fidelite pou Bondye. Men li te fè tèt di, e avèk kè di, li te refize vire vè SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la.
14 Moreover all the chief of the priests, and the people wickedly transgressed according to all the abominations of the Gentiles: and they defiled the house of the Lord, which he had sanctified to himself in Jerusalem.
Epi, ofisye a prèt yo avèk pèp la te manke fidèl anpil nan swiv tout abominasyon a nasyon yo, e yo te konwonpi kay ke SENYÈ a te fè sen Jérusalem nan.
15 And the Lord the God of their fathers sent to them, by the hand of his messengers, rising early, and daily admonishing them: because he spared his people and his dwelling place.
SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt pa yo a, te voye kote yo tout tan pa mesaje pa Li yo, akoz li te gen mizerikòd vè pèp li a ak sou kote ke Li te abite a;
16 But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused the prophets, until the wrath of the Lord arose against his people, and there was no remedy.
men yo te giyonnen mesaje Bondye yo, yo te meprize pawòl Li, e yo te moke pwofèt Li yo, jiskaske kòlè SENYÈ a te leve kont pèp Li a jiskaske pa t gen remèd pou sa.
17 For he brought upon them the king of the Chaldeans, and he slew their young men with the sword in the house of his sanctuary, he had no compassion on young man, or maiden, old man or even him that stooped for age, but he delivered them all into his hands.
Akoz sa, Li te mennen kont yo wa a Kaldeyen yo ki te touye jennonm yo avèk nepe nan kay sanktyè yo a, e Li pa t fè gras pou jèn moun, ni vyèj, ni granmoun, ni moun enfim. Li te livre tout nan men li.
18 And all the vessels of the house of the Lord, great and small, and the treasures of the temple and of the king, and of the princes he carried away to Babylon.
Tout bagay ki te sòti lakay SENYÈ a, gran kon piti, trezò lakay SENYÈ a ak trezò a wa yo avèk ofisye li yo, li te mennen tout Babylone.
19 And the enemies set fire to the house of God, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, burnt all the towers, and whatsoever was precious they destroyed.
Anfen, yo te brile kay Bondye a, yo te kraze miray Jérusalem nan, yo te brile tout konstriksyon fòtifye li yo avèk dife, e yo te detwi tout bagay valab li yo.
20 Whosoever escaped the sword, was led into Babylon, and there served the king and his sons till the reign of the king of Persia.
Sila ki te chape anba nepe yo, li te pote yo ale Babylone; epi yo te sèvitè li avèk fis li jiskaske wayòm Perse la te vin monte.
21 That the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, and the land might keep her sabbaths: for all the days of the desolation she kept a sabbath, till the seventy years were expired.
Sa te fèt pou fin akonpli pawòl SENYÈ a pa bouch a Jérémie, jiskaske tè a te fin rejwi de tout Saba li yo. Pandan tout jou dezolasyon li yo, li te kenbe Saba a jiskaske swasann-dizan an te fin pase.
22 But in the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, to fulfill the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by the mouth of Jeremias, the Lord stirred up the heart of Cyrus king of the Persians who commanded it to be proclaimed through all his kingdom, and by writing also, saying:
Alò, nan premye ane Cyrus la, Perse la—-pou l te kab akonpli pawòl SENYÈ a pa bouch Jérémie——SENYÈ a te boulvèse lespri a Cyrus, wa Perse la, pou li ta voye yon pwoklamasyon toupatou nan wayòm li an e anplis, ekri li pou di:
23 Thus saith Cyrus king of the Persians: All the kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord the God of heaven given to me, and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judea: who is there among you of all his people? The Lord his God be with him, and let him go up.
Konsa pale Cyrus, wa Perse la: “SENYÈ a, Bondye Syèl la, te ban mwen tout wayòm yo sou latè, e Li te mete m anba lòd pou bati pou Li yon kay Jérusalem, ki nan Juda. Ke SENYÈ a, Bondye pa li a, kapab avèk li e kite li monte.”
