2 Kings 14
1 In the second year of Joas son of Joachaz, king of Israel, reigned Amasias son of Joas king of Juda.
Nan dezyèm ane Joas la, fis a Joachaz la, wa Israël la, Amatsia, fis a Joas la, wa Juda a, te devni wa.
2 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and nine and twenty years he reigned in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Joadan of Jerusalem.
Li te gen laj a venn-senkan lè li te devni wa, e li te renye vent-nèf ane Jérusalem. Manman li te rele Joaddan, yon moun Jérusalem.
3 And he did that which was right before the Lord, but yet not like David his father. He did according to all things that Joas his father did:
Amatsia te fè sa ki bon nan zye SENYÈ a, men pa tankou David, zansèt li a. Li te fè menm selon tout sa ke Joas, papa li te konn fè yo.
4 But this only, that he took not away the high places: for yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
Se sèl wo plas yo ki pa t retire. Pèp la te toujou fè sakrifis e brile lansan nan wo plas yo.
5 And when he had possession of the kingdom, he put his servants to death that had slain the king his father:
Alò, li te vin rive ke depi wayòm nan te byen solid nan men l, ke li te touye sèvitè li yo ki te touye wa a, papa li.
6 But the children of the murderers he did not put to death, according to that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying: The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: but every man shall die for his own sins.
Men fis a sila ki te mouri yo, li pa t mete yo a lanmò, an akò avèk sa ki ekri nan liv Lalwa Moïse la, jan SENYÈ a te kòmande a lè l te di: “Papa yo p ap mete a lanmò pou fis yo, ni fis yo p ap mete a lanmò pou papa yo, men chak moun va mete a lanmò pou pwòp peche pa l.”
7 He slew of Edom in the valley of the Saltpits ten thousand men, and took the rock by war, and called the name thereof Jectehel, unto this day.
Li te touye di-mil moun Édom nan Vale Sèl la, epi te pran Séla nan lagè. Li te rele li Yoqthéel, e se sa li ye jis rive jodi a.
8 Then Amasias sent messengers to Joas son of Joachaz, son of Jehu king of Israel, saying: Come let us see one another.
Epi Amatsia te voye mesaje yo kote Joas, fis a Joachaz la, fis a Jéhu a, wa a Israël la. Li te di: “Vini, annou parèt fasafas.”
9 And Joas king of Israel sent again to Amasias king of Juda, saying: A thistle of Libanus sent to a cedar tree, which is in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife. And the beasts of the forest, that are in Libanus, passed and trod down the thistle.
Joas, wa Israël la, te voye kote Amatsia, wa Juda a, e te di: “Bwa pikan ki te Liban an te voye kote sèd ki te Liban an, e li te di: ‘Bay fi ou an maryaj a fis mwen an.’ Men te pase pa la yon bèt sovaj ki te Liban, e li te kraze bwa pikan an anba pye l.
10 Thou hast beaten and prevailed over Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: be content with the glory, and sit at home: why provokest thou evil, that thou shouldst fall, and Juda with thee?
Anverite, ou te bat Édom e kè ou vin plen ògèy. Rete lakay ou pou fè kè kontan. Pou ki rezon ou ta pwovoke twoub la jiskaske ou menm, ou ta tonbe, e Juda ansanm avèk ou?”
11 But Amasias did not rest satisfied. So Joas king of Israel went up, and he and Amasias king of Juda saw one another in Bethsames a town in Juda.
Men Amatsia te refize koute. Pou sa, wa Israël la te monte. Li menm avèk wa Juda a te parèt fasafas nan Beth-Schémesch ki pou Juda a.
12 And Juda was put to the worst before Israel, and they fled every man to their dwellings.
Juda te bat pa Israël e yo te sove ale, yo chak nan pwòp tant pa yo.
13 But Joas king of Israel took Amasias, king of Juda the son of Joas, the son of Ochozias, in Bethsames, and brought him into Jerusalem: and he broke down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim to the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
Epi Joas, wa Israël la, te kaptire Amatsia, wa Juda a, fis a Joas la, fis a Achazia a, nan Beth-Schémesch, li te rive Jérusalem e li te chire miray Jérusalem nan soti nan Pòtay Ephraïm nan jis rive nan Pòtay Kwen an, distans a kat-san koude.
14 And he took all the gold, and silver, and all the vessels, that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s treasures, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.
Li te pran tout lò avèk tout ajan ak tout zouti ki te twouve lakay SENYÈ a, nan trezò lakay wa a, ansanm ak kaptif yo e li te retounen Samarie.
15 But the rest of the acts of Joas, which he did, and his valour, wherewith he fought against Amasias king of Juda, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Alò, tout lòt zèv ke Joas te fè yo, avèk pwisans li, ak jan li te goumen avèk Amatsia, wa Juda a, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv A Kwonik A Wa Israël yo?
16 And Joas slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, with the kings of Israel: and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.
Konsa, Joas te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e li te antere Samarie avèk wa Israël yo. Jéroboam, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
17 And Amasias the son of Joas king of Juda lived, after the death of Joas son of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.
Amatsia, fis a Joas la, Wa Juda a, te viv kenzan apre lanmò Joas, fis a Joachaz la, wa Israël la.
18 And the rest of the acts of Amasias, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Amatsia yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv A Kwonik A Wa A Juda yo?
19 Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachis. And they sent after him to Lachis, and killed him there.
Yo te fè konplo kont li Jérusalem e li te sove ale rive Lakis. Men yo te voye dèyè li Lakis pou te touye li la.
20 And they brought him away upon horses, and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
Epi yo te mennen kò li sou cheval yo, e li te antere Jérusalem avèk zansèt li yo nan vil David la.
21 And all the people of Juda took Azarias, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amasias.
Tout pèp Juda a te pran Azaria, nan laj sèzan, e yo te fè li wa nan plas a papa li, Amatsia.
22 He built Elath, and restored it to Juda, after that the king slept with his fathers.
Li te bati Élath e li te remèt li bay Juda apre wa a te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo.
23 In the fifteenth year of Amasias son of Joas king of Juda, reigned Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel in Samaria, one and forty years:
Nan kenzyèm ane règn Amatsia, fis a Joas la, wa Juda a, Jéroboam, fis a Joas la, wa Israël la te devni wa Samarie, e li te renye pandan karanteyen ane.
24 And he did that which was evil before the Lord. He departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.
Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a. Li pa t kite tout peche Jéroboam yo, fis a Nebath la, ki te fè Israël peche yo.
25 He restored the borders of Israel from the entrance of Emath, unto the sea of the wilderness, according to the word of the Lord the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonas the son of Amathi, the prophet, who was of Geth, which is in Opher.
Li te restore lizyè Israël la soti nan antre Hamath jis rive nan Lamè Araba, selon pawòl SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, ki te pale pa sèvitè li Jonas, fis a Amitthaï a nan Gath-Hépher.
26 For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel that it was exceeding bitter, and that they were consumed even to them that were shut up in prison, and the lowest persons, and that there was no one to help Israel.
Paske SENYÈ a te wè soufrans Israël ki te tèlman anmè; paske pa t gen ni esklav, ni lib, ni pa t gen okenn moun ki pou ede Israël.
27 And the Lord did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joas.
SENYÈ a pa t di ke li ta efase non Israël anba syèl la; men Li te delivre yo pa men Jéroboam, fis a Joas la.
28 But the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his velour, wherewith he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Emath to Juda in Israel, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Alò, tout lòt zèv Jéroboam yo avèk tout sa ke li te fè ak pouvwa li, jan li te goumen ak jan li te reprann pou Israël Damas avèk Hamath nan Juda, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Israël Yo?
29 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers the kings of Israel, and Zacharias his son reigned in his stead.
Epi Jéroboam te dòmi avèk zansèt pa li yo, menm ak wa a Israël yo. Epi Zacharie, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
