< 2 Chronicles 21 >
1 Iehosphaphat then slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the citie of Dauid: and Iehoram his sonne reigned in his steade.
Jozafa mouri, yo antere l' nan tonm wa yo, nan lavil David la. Se pitit li, Joram, ki moute sou fotèy la nan plas li.
2 And he had brethren the sonnes of Iehoshaphat, Azariah, and Iehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were the sonnes of Iehoshaphat King of Israel.
Joram, pitit Jozafa, wa peyi Jida a, te gen sis frè: Azarya, Jeyèl, Zakari, Azaryawou, Mikayèk ak Chefatyawou.
3 And their father gaue them great giftes of siluer and of golde, and of precious things, with strong cities in Iudah, but the kingdome gaue he to Iehoram: for he was the eldest.
Papa yo te ba yo chak yon kantite lò, ajan, ak tout kalite lòt bagay ki gen valè. Li mete yo chèf nan gwo lavil ki gen miray ranpa nan peyi Jida a. Men li te mete Joram wa nan plas li, paske Joram te premye pitit gason l'.
4 And Iehoram rose vp vpon the kingdom of his father, and made himselfe strong, and slew all his brethren with the sworde, and also of the princes of Israel.
Lè Joram moute wa nan plas papa l', li chita otorite l' byen chita nan peyi a. Lèfini, li fè touye tout frè l' yo ansanm ak kèk gwo chèf pèp Izrayèl la.
5 Iehoram was two and thirtie yeere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned eyght yeere in Ierusalem.
Joram te gen tranndezan lè li moute wa. Li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan witan.
6 And he walked in the way of the Kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab had done: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife, and he wrought euill in the eyes of the Lord.
Li fè tankou wa Akab ak lòt wa peyi Izrayèl yo te fè. Li te marye ak yon pitit fi Akab, li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a.
7 Howbeit the Lord would not destroy the house of Dauid, because of the couenant that he had made with Dauid, and because he had promised to giue a light to him, and to his sonnes for euer.
Men Seyè a pa t' vle detwi fanmi David la, paske li te pase kontra ak David. Li te pwomèt David li t'ap toujou gen yon moun nan ras li pou gouvènen peyi a devan Seyè a.
8 In his dayes Edom rebelled from vnder the hand of Iudah, and made a King ouer them.
Sou rèy wa Joram, moun peyi Edon yo pran lèzam kont moun peyi Jida yo. Yo pran libète granmoun yo, yo nonmen yon wa pou gouvènen yo.
9 And Iehoram went forth with his princes, and all his charets with him: and hee rose vp by night, and smote Edom, which had compassed him in, and the captaines of the charets.
Se konsa Joram soti ak tout chèf li yo ak tout cha lagè li yo, li mache sou yo. Lame moun Edon yo sènen l'. Pandan lannwit, Joram ak chèf cha lagè li yo leve, yo atake moun Edon yo, yo pase soti nan mitan yo, yo chape kò yo.
10 But Edom rebelled from vnder the hande of Iudah vnto this day. then did Libnah rebell at the same time from vnder his hand, because he had forsaken the Lord God of his fathers.
Se depi lè sa a, peyi Edon soti anba otorite peyi Jida a. Yo granmoun lakay yo. Se menm lè sa a tou, moun lavil Libna yo soti anba otorite peyi Jida a, paske Joram te vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye zansèt yo a.
11 Moreouer hee made hie places in the mountaines of Iudah, and caused the inhabitants of Ierusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Iudah thereto.
Li te menm rive fè bati tanp pou sèvi zidòl nan mòn peyi Jida yo. Li lakòz moun lavil Jerizalèm yo vire do bay Bondye. Li fè peyi Jida a pèdi wout li.
12 And there came a writing to him from Elijah the Prophet, saying, Thus sayth the Lord God of Dauid thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the wayes of Iehoshaphat thy father, nor in the wayes of Asa King of Iudah,
Se konsa Joram resevwa yon lèt pwofèt Eli te voye ba li. Nan lèt la pwofèt la di: -Men sa Seyè a, Bondye David, zansèt w'a a, voye di ou: Ou pa swiv egzanp Jozafa, papa ou, ni egzanp Asa, granpapa ou.
13 But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Iudah and the inhabitantes of Ierusalem to go a whoring, as the house of Ahab went a whoring, and hast also slaine thy brethre of thy fathers house, which were better then thou,
Ou te pito swiv egzanp wa peyi Izrayèl yo. Ou lakòz peyi Jida a ak tout moun lavil Jerizalèm yo vire do bay Bondye tankou moun fanmi Akab yo te fè l' la. Ou menm rive touye frè ou yo, pwòp pitit papa ou yo, ki te pi bon pase ou.
14 Beholde, with a great plague will the Lord smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wiues, and all thy substance,
Se poutèt sa, Seyè a pral voye yon gwo malè sou pèp la, sou pitit ou yo, sou madanm ou yo ak sou tou sa ou genyen.
15 And thou shalt be in great diseases in the disease of thy bowels, vntill thy bowels fall out for the disease, day by day.
Ou menm pou tèt pa ou, ou pral malad anpil. Ou pral gen yon sèl maladi vant ki pral fè ou soufri jouk trip ou va soti.
16 So the Lord stirred vp against Iehoram the spirite of the Philistims, and the Arabians that were beside the Ethiopians.
Lè sa a, te gen kèk moun Filisti ak moun Arabi ki t'ap viv toupre ak moun Letiopi yo. Seyè a fè yo vin atake Joram.
17 And they came vp into Iudah, and brake into it, and caryed away all the substance that was found in the Kings house, and his sonnes also, and his wiues, so that there was not a sonne left him, saue Iehoahaz, the yongest of his sonnes.
Yo anvayi peyi Jida, yo piye palè wa a, yo fè tout madanm li yo prizonye ansanm ak tout pitit gason l' yo. Sèl pitit gason yo te kite pou li se te Joakaz, ti dènye a.
18 And after all this, the Lord smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
Apre sa, Seyè a voye yon sèl maladi vant sou li ki pa t' ka geri.
19 And in processe of time, euen after the end of two yeeres, his guttes fell out with his disease: so he dyed of sore diseases: and his people made no burning for him like the burning of his fathers.
Pandan dezan maladi a t'ap minen l', trip li yo soti, li t'ap soufri anpil lè li mouri. Pèp la pa t' limen boukan pou li jan yo te fè l' pou zansèt li yo.
20 When he began to reigne, he was two and thirtie yeere olde, and reigned in Ierusalem eight yeere, and liued without being desired: yet they buryed him in the citie of Dauid, but not among the sepulchres of the Kings.
Joram te gen tranndezan lè li moute wa, li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan witan. Pesonn pa t' pran lapenn pou li lè li mouri. Yo antere l' nan lavil David la, men yo pa mete l' nan tonm wa yo.
