< 2 Chronicles 33 >
1 Manasseh was twelve when he became king, and he reigned in for Jerusalem fifty-five years.
Manassé te gen laj douzan lè l te devni wa a, e li te renye pandan senkann-senkan Jérusalem.
2 He did evil in the Lord's sight by following the disgusting religious practices of the nations that the Lord had driven out before the Israelites.
Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a, selon abominasyon yo a nasyon an ke SENYÈ a te chase deyò devan fis Israël yo.
3 He rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had destroyed, and he made altars for the Baals and set up Asherah poles. He worshiped the sun, moon, and stars and served them.
Paske li te rebati wo plas ke Ézéchias, papa li te kraze yo. Anplis, li te monte lotèl pou Baal yo. Li te fè Asherim yo, e li te adore tout lame syèl yo e te sèvi yo.
4 He built altars in the Lord's Temple, about which the Lord had said, “I shall be honored in Jerusalem forever.”
Li te bati lotèl lakay SENYÈ a sou sila yo SENYÈ a te di: “Se non Mwen k ap nan Jérusalem jis pou tout tan an.”
5 He built these altars to worship the sun, moon, and stars in both courtyards of the Lord's Temple.
Paske li te bati lotèl pou tout lame syèl yo nan de lakou lakay SENYÈ yo.
6 He sacrificed his children by burning them to death in the Valley of Ben-hinnom. He practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and visited mediums and spiritists. He did a great deal of evil in the Lord's sight, making him angry.
Anplis, li te fè fis li yo pase nan dife nan vale Ben-Hinnom, epi li te pratike vye maji, divinasyon, fè wanga e li te fè angajman avèk sila ki pale ak mò yo ak divinò yo. Li te fè anpil mal nan zye SENYÈ a ki te pwovoke Li a lakòlè.
7 He took a pagan idol he had made and set it up in God's Temple, about which God had told David and his son Solomon, “I will be honored forever in this Temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel.
Li te mete imaj taye ke li te fè lakay Bondye a, sou sila Bondye te di a David ak Salomon, fis li a: “Nan kay sila a ak nan Jérusalem, ke Mwen te chwazi soti nan tout tribi Israël yo, Mwen va mete non Mwen jis pou tout tan.
8 If the Israelites are careful to follow everything I have instructed them to do—all the laws, commandments, and regulations, given through Moses—then I will not make them leave the land I granted your forefathers.”
Mwen p ap retire ankò pye Israël soti nan peyi ke Mwen te chwazi pou papa zansèt nou yo, si sèlman yo va obsève pou fè tout sa ke M te kòmande yo pa tout lalwa, règleman avèk òdonans ki te bay pa Moïse yo.”
9 But Manasseh seduced Judah and the people of Jerusalem, leading them to commit even worse sins than the nations the Lord had destroyed before Israelites.
Konsa, Manassé te egare Juda ak pèp Jérusalem nan pou fè plis mal pase menm nasyon ke SENYÈ a te detwi devan fis Israël yo.
10 The Lord warned Manasseh and his people, but they ignored him.
SENYÈ a te pale ak Manassé avèk pèp li a, men yo pa t okipe sa menm.
11 So the Lord sent the armies of Assyria with their commanders to attack them. The Assyrians captured Manasseh, put a hook through his nose, put bronze shackles on him, and took him away to Babylon.
Pou sa, SENYÈ a te fè chèf a lame wa Assyrie yo vin parèt kont yo. Yo te kaptire Manassé e te mete l an chenn yo. Yo te mete chenn an bwonz sou pye l, e te mennen li Babylone.
12 In his misery, asked the Lord God for help, repenting for his arrogance before the God of his forefathers.
Pandan li te nan gwo twoub, li te sipliye SENYÈ a, Bondye pa li a, devan Bondye a zansèt li yo.
13 He prayed and prayed, and the Lord listened to his pleadings, so the Lord brought Manasseh back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh was convinced that the Lord is God.
Lè li te priye a Li menm, Li te touche pa priyè li a. Konsa, Li te tande siplikasyon li an, e te mennen li ankò Jérusalem kote wayòm li an. Konsa, Manassé te konnen ke SENYÈ a te Bondye.
14 After this, Manasseh rebuilt the outer wall of the City of David from west of Gihon in the valley to the Fish Gate, and around the hill of Ophel, and made it much higher. He also assigned army commanders to all the fortified towns of Judah.
Alò, apre sa li te bati miray deyò lavil David la sou kote lwès a Guihon, nan vale a, menm pou rive nan antre Pòtay Pwason an. Li te antoure Ophel la avèk li, e te fè li byen wo, epi li te mete chèf lame yo nan tout vil fòtifye Juda yo.
15 He disposed of the foreign gods and the idol from the Lord's Temple, together with all the altars he had built on the Temple hill and in Jerusalem, throwing all of them outside the city.
Anplis, li te retire dye etranje yo avèk zidòl yo soti lakay SENYÈ a. Tout lotèl ke li te bati sou mòn lakay SENYÈ a ak nan Jérusalem yo, li te jete yo deyò lavil la.
16 Then he restored the altar of the Lord, and sacrificed friendship offerings and thank offerings on it, and he instructed Judah to worship the Lord, the God of Israel.
Li te monte lotèl SENYÈ a, e te fè sakrifis ofrann lapè avèk ofrann remèsiman sou li; epi li te kòmande Juda pou sèvi SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la.
17 But the people still sacrificed on the high places, but only to the Lord their God.
Sepandan, pèp la te toujou fè sakrifis nan lye wo yo, men sèlman a SENYÈ Bondye pa yo a.
18 The rest of what Manasseh did, along with his prayer to his God and what he was told by the seers who spoke on the Lord's behalf are recorded in the Book of the Kings of Israel.
Alò, tout lòt zèv Manassé yo, menm lapriyè li a Bondye pa li a, ak pawòl a divinè yo ki te pale avèk li nan non SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, men gade, yo pami achiv a wa Israël yo.
19 His prayer and how God answered him, as well as all his sins and unfaithfulness, and where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and idols before he admitted he was wrong, are recorded in the Records of the Seers.
Anplis lapriyè li, jan li te sipliye Bondye a, ak tout peche li yo, enfidelite li ak landwa ke li te bati wo plas pou te fè monte Asherim yo, ak imaj taye yo, avan li te vin imilye li menm, gade, yo tout ekri nan achiv a Hozaï yo.
20 Manasseh died and was buried at his palace. His son Amon took over as king.
Konsa, Manassé te dòmi avèk papa zansèt li yo, e yo te antere li nan pwòp kay li. Epi Amon, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
21 Amon was twenty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for two years.
Amon te gen laj a venn-dezan lè l te devni wa, e li te renye dezan Jérusalem.
22 He did evil in the Lord's sight just as his father Manasseh had. Amon worshiped and sacrificed to all the idols his father Manasseh had made.
Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a tankou Manassé, papa li, te konn fè a, e Amon te fè sakrifis a tout imaj taye ke papa li, Manassé te fè yo, e li te sèvi yo.
23 However, he did not admit his pride before the Lord as his father Manasseh had done—in fact Amon made his guilt even worse.
Anplis, li pa t imilye li menm devan SENYÈ a jan papa li, Manassé te fè a, men Amon te ogmante koupabilite li.
24 Then Amon's officials plotted against him and killed him in his palace.
Anfen, sèvitè li yo te fè konplo kont li, e te mete li a lanmò nan pwòp kay pa li.
25 But the people of the land killed everyone who had plotted against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king.
Men pèp peyi a te touye tout sila ki te fè konplo a kont Wa Amon yo, e pèp peyi a te fè Josias, fis li a, wa nan plas li.
