< 2 Kings 20 >

1 In those days Ezechias was sick unto death: and Isaias the son of Amos the prophet came and said to him: Thus saith the Lord God: Give charge concerning thy house, for thou shalt die, and not live.
Nan jou sa yo, Ézéchias te vin malad jis rive nan pòt lanmò. Epi Ésaïe, pwofèt la, fis a Amots la, te vin kote li e te di li: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ‘Mete lakay ou an lòd; paske ou va mouri e ou p ap viv.’”
2 And he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the Lord, saying:
Konsa, Ézéchias te vire figi li vè miray la pou te priye a SENYÈ a. Li te di:
3 I beseech thee, O Lord, remember how I have walked before thee in truth, and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is pleasing before thee. And Ezechias wept with much weeping.
“Sonje koulye a, O SENYÈ a, mwen sipliye Ou, jan mwen te mache devan Ou anverite avèk tout kè m nan, ak jan mwen te fè sa ki bon nan zye Ou a.” Epi Ézéchias te kriye byen anmè.
4 And before Isaias was gone out of the middle of the court, the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
Avan Ésaïe te sòti nan mitan vil a, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote li. Li te di:
5 Go back, and tell Ezechias the captain of my people: Thus saith the Lord the God of David thy father: I have heard thy prayer, and I have seen thy tears: and behold I have healed thee; on the third day thou shalt go up to the temple of the Lord.
“Retounen pale ak Ézéchias, dirijan pèp mwen an: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt ou a, David: “Mwen te tande lapriyè pa w la. Mwen te wè dlo ki sòti nan zye ou a. Men vwala, Mwen va geri ou. Nan twazyèm jou a, ou va monte lakay SENYÈ a.
6 And I will add to thy days fifteen years: and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians, and I will protect this city for my own sake, and for David my servant’s sake.
Mwen va mete kenzan sou lavi ou e mwen va delivre ou avèk vil sa a soti nan men a wa Assyrie. Mwen va defann vil sa a pou koz pa Mwen ak pou koz David, sèvitè Mwen an.”’”
7 And Isaias said: Bring me a lump of figs. And when they had brought it, and laid it upon his boil. he was healed.
Konsa, Ésaïe te di: “Pran yon gato figye etranje.” Yo te pran l e te mete li sou apse a, e li te vin refè.
8 And Ezechias had said to Isaias: What shall be the sign that the Lord will heal me, and that I shall go up to the temple of the Lord the third day?
Alò, Ézéchias te di a Ésaïe: “Ki sign ki va parèt ke SENYÈ a va geri mwen, e ke mwen va monte lakay SENYÈ a nan twazyèm jou a?”
9 And Isaias said to him: This shall be the sign from the Lord, that the Lord will do the word which he hath spoken: Wilt thou that the shadow go forward ten lines, or that it go back so many degrees?
Ésaïe te di: “Sa va sign a ou menm soti nan SENYÈ a, ke SENYÈ a va fè bagay ke li te pale a: èske ou pito lonbraj la avanse dis pa, oswa fè bak dis pa?”
10 And Ezechias said: It is an easy matter for the shadow to go forward ten lines: and I do not desire that this be done, but let it return back ten degrees.
Alò, Ézéchias te reponn: “Li tèlman fasil pou lonbraj la avanse dis pa. Men non, kite li fè bak dis pa.”
11 And Isaias the prophet called upon the Lord, and he brought the shadow ten degrees backwards by the lines, by which it had already gone down in the dial of Achaz.
Ésaïe, pwofèt la, te kriye a SENYÈ a, e Li te fè lonbraj la fè bak dis pa sou eskalye a sou sila li te avanse nan eskalye Achaz la.
12 At that time Berodach Baladan, the son of Baladan, king of the Babylonians, sent letters and presents to Ezechias: for he had heard that Ezechias had been sick.
Nan tan sa a, Berodac-Baladan, fis a Baladan nan, wa Babylone nan, te voye lèt avèk yon kado bay Ézéchias, paske li te tande ke Ézéchias te konn malad.
13 And Ezechias rejoiced at their coming, and he showed them the house of his aromatical spices, and the gold and the silver, and divers precious odours, and ointments, and the house of his vessels, and all that he had in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominions that Ezechias shewed them not.
Ézéchias te koute yo e montre yo tout kay trezò li a, ajan avèk lò, epis avèk lwil presye, lakay boukliye li yo avèk tout sa ki te konn twouve nan trezò li yo. Pa t gen anyen lakay li ni nan tout wayòm li a ke li pa t montre yo.
14 And Isaias the prophet came to king Ezechias, and said to him: What said these men? or from whence came they to thee? And Ezechias said to him: From a far country they came to me out of Babylon.
Alò, pwofèt la, Ésaïe, te vin kote Ézéchias. Li te mande li: “Kisa mesye sila yo te di e depi kibò yo sòti pou rive kote ou a?” Epi Ézéchias te di: “Yo sòti nan yon peyi lwen, nan Babylone.”
15 And he said: What did they see in thy house? Ezechias said: They saw all the things that are in my house: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewn them.
Li te di: “Kisa yo te wè lakay ou a?” Ézéchias te reponn: “Yo te wè tout sa ki lakay mwen an. Nanpwen anyen pami trezò mwen yo ke m pa t montre yo.”
16 And Isaias said to Ezechias: Hear the word of the Lord.
Konsa, Ésaïe te di a Ézéchias: “Tande pawòl SENYÈ a.
17 Behold the days shall come, that all that is in thy house, and that thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the Lord.
‘Veye byen, jou yo ap vini lè tout sa ki lakay ou avèk tout sa ke zansèt ou yo te mete an depo jis rive jou sa a va pote ale Babylone. Anyen p ap rete, pale SENYÈ a.
18 And of thy sons also that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, they shall take away, and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
Kèk nan fis ou yo ki va sòti nan ou menm, ke ou va fè, va retire ale; epi yo va devni ofisye nan palè a wa Babylone nan.’”
19 Ezechias said to Isaias: The word of the Lord, which thou hast spoken, is good: let peace and truth be in my days.
Alò Ézéchias te di a Ésaïe: “Pawòl SENYÈ a ke ou te bay la bon.” Paske li te reflechi: “Èske se pa sa, si k ap gen lapè avèk verite nan jou mwen yo?”
20 And the rest of the acts of Ezechias and all his might, and how he made a pool, and a conduit, and brought waters into the city, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Ézéchias yo avèk tout pwisans li ak jan li te fè sous dlo a avèk kanal ki te mennen dlo a nan vil la, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Juda Yo?
21 And Ezechias slept with his fathers, and Manasses his son reigned in his stead.
Konsa, Ézéchias te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo e Manassé, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
