< 2 Kings 18 >
1 Now in the third yeere of Hoshea, sonne of Elah King of Israel, Hezekiah the sonne of Ahaz king of Iudah began to reigne.
Alò, li te vin rive nan twazyèm ane Osée, fis a Éla a, wa Israël la ke Ézéchias, fis Achaz la, wa Juda a, te devni wa a.
2 He was fiue and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned nine and twenty yeere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Abi the daughter of Zachariah,
Li te gen venn-senkan lè l te devni wa e li te renye pandan vent-nèf ane Jérusalem. Non manman li se te Abi, fi a Zacharie a.
3 And he did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Dauid his father had done.
Li te fè sa ki bon nan zye SENYÈ a, selon tout sa ke zansèt li yo, David te konn fè.
4 He tooke away the hie places, and brake the images, and cut downe the groues, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for vnto those dayes the children of Israel did burne incense to it, and hee called it Nehushtan.
Li te retire wo plas yo, li te kraze pilye sakre yo, e li te koupe desann Astarté la. Anplis, li te kraze an mòso sèpan an bwonz ke Moïse te fè a, paske jis rive nan jou sa yo, fis Israël yo te konn brile lansan pou li; epi li te rele Nehuschtan.
5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel: so that after him was none like him among all the Kings of Iudah, neither were there any such before him.
Li te mete konfyans li nan SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, jiskaske, apre li, pa t gen tankou li nan tout wa Juda yo, ni nan sila ki te avan l yo.
6 For he claue to the Lord, and departed not from him, but kept his commandements, which the Lord had commanded Moses.
Paske li te kenbe fèm a SENYÈ a. Li pa t varye nan swiv Li, men li te kenbe kòmandman ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse yo.
7 So the Lord was with him, and he prospered in all thinges, which he tooke in hande: also he rebelled against the King of Asshur, and serued him not.
Epi SENYÈ a te avèk li. Nenpòt kote li te ale, li te reyisi. Li te fè rebèl kont wa a Assyrie a e li pa t sèvi li.
8 He smote the Philistims vnto Azzah, and the coastes thereof, from the watch towre vnto the defensed citie.
Li te venk Filisten yo soti rive nan Gaza avèk teritwa li, soti nan tou kay gad yo, jis rive nan gwo vil fòtifye a.
9 And in the fourth yere of King Hezekiah, (which was the seuenth yeere of Hoshea sonne of Elah King of Israel) Shalmaneser King of Asshur came vp against Samaria, and besieged it.
Alò, nan katriyèm ane Wa Ézéchias la, ki te setyèm ane Osée, fis a Éla a, wa Israël la, Salmanasar, wa Assyrie a, te monte kont Samarie, e te fè syèj kont li.
10 And after three yeeres they tooke it, euen in the sixt yeere of Hezekiah: that is, the ninth yeere of Hoshea King of Israel was Samaria taken.
Nan fen twazan, yo te kaptire li, epi nan sizyèm ane Ézéchias la, ki te nan nevyèm ane Osée a, wa Israël la, Samarie te vin kaptire.
11 Then the King of Asshur did carry away Israel vnto Asshur, and put them in Halah and in Habor, by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes,
Konsa, wa Assyrie a te pote Israël ale an egzil nan Assyrie, e li te mete yo nan Chalach sou rivyè Gozan nan vil a Mèdes yo,
12 Because they woulde not obey the voyce of the Lord their God, but transgressed his couenant: that is, all that Moses the seruant of the Lord had commanded, and would neyther obey nor doe them.
paske yo pa t obeyi vwa a SENYÈ a, Bondye pa yo a, men yo te transgrese akò pa Li a, menm tout sa ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, te kòmande yo. Yo pa t koute yo, ni fè yo.
13 Moreouer, in the fourteenth yeere of King Hezekiah, Saneherib King of Asshur came vp against all the strong cities of Iudah, and tooke them.
Alò, nan katòzyèm ane a Wa Ézéchias, Sanchérib la, wa Assyrie a te vin monte kont tout vil fòtifye Juda yo, e li te sezi yo.
14 Then Hezekiah King of Iudah sent vnto the King of Asshur to Lachish, saying, I haue offended: depart from me, and what thou layest vpon me, I wil beare it. And the King of Asshur appoynted vnto Hezekiah King of Iudah three hudreth talents of siluer, and thirty talets of golde.
Alò, Ézéchias, wa Juda a te voye kote wa Assyrie a nan Lakis. Li te di: “Mwen te fè mal. Rale bak sòti sou mwen; nenpòt sa ke ou mande m peye, m ap sipòte l.” Pou sa, wa Assyrie a te fè demand a Ézéchias pou peye twa san talan ajan avèk trant talan lò.
15 Therefore Hezekiah gaue all the siluer that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the Kings house.
Ézéchias te bay tout ajan ki te twouve nan kay SENYÈ a ak nan kès lakay wa a.
16 At the same season did Hezekiah pul off the plates of the doores of the Temple of the Lord, and the pillars (which the sayd Hezekiah King of Iudah had couered ouer) and gaue them to the King of Asshur.
Nan tan sa a, Ézéchias te koupe retire lò nan pòt tanp SENYÈ a, avèk chanbrann pòt ke Ézéchias, wa Juda a, te kouvri a e li te bay li a wa Assyrie a.
17 And the King of Asshur sent Tartan, and Rab-saris, and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a great hoste against Ierusalem. And they went vp, and came to Ierusalem, and when they were come vp, they stood by the conduite of the vpper poole, which is by the path of the fullers fielde,
Epi wa Assyrie a te voye Tharthan, Rab-Saris avèk Rabschaké sòti nan Lakis avèk yon gwo lame rive kote Ézéchias Jérusalem. Konsa, yo te monte pou te rive Jérusalem. Epi lè yo te monte, yo te rive e te kanpe kote kanal souteren an, nan ma sous dlo piwo a, ki te sou chemen chan lesiv la.
18 And called to the King. Then came out to them Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder.
Lè yo te rele wa a, Élikiam, fis a Hilkija a, ki te sou tout kay la ak Schebna, grefye a ak Joach, fis a Asaph la, achivist la, te parèt kote yo.
19 And Rabshakeh sayde vnto them, Tell ye Hezekiah, I pray you, Thus saith the great King, euen the great King of Asshur, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
Epi Rabschaké te di yo: “Pale koulye a a Ézéchias: ‘Konsa pale gran wa a, wa Assyrie a: “Ki kalite konfyans sa ke ou genyen an?
20 Thou thinkest, Surely I haue eloquence, but counsell and strength are for the warre. On whom then doest thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
Ou di nou (malgre se pawòl vid yo ye): ‘Mwen gen konsèy avèk pwisans pou fè lagè.’ Alò, sou kilès ou depann, pou ou vin fè rebèl kont mwen an?
21 Lo, thou trustest now in this broken staffe of reede, to wit, on Egypt, on which if a man leane, it will goe into his hand, and pearce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt vnto all that trust on him.
Alò, veye byen, ou depann de baton a wozo kraze sa a, sou Égypte menm. Sou sila si yon nonm apiye, l ap fonse antre nan men l e pèse l nèt. Se konsa, Farawon va ye pou tout sila ki depann de li yo.
22 But if ye say vnto me, We trust in the Lord our God, is not that he whose hie places, and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath sayd to Iudah and Ierusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Ierusalem?
Men si ou di mwen: ‘Nou mete konfyans nan SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an’, se pa li menm pou sila Ézéchias te retire wo plas avèk lotèl yo, e ki te di a Juda avèk Jérusalem: ‘Nou va adore devan lotèl sa a Jérusalem?’
23 Now therefore giue hostages to my lord the King of Asshur, and I will giue thee two thousand horses, if thou be able to set riders vpon them.
Pou sa, vini, fè yon antant avèk mèt mwen, wa a Assyrie a, e mwen va ba ou de mil cheval, si ou kab menm mete moun sou do yo.
24 For how canst thou despise any captaine of the least of my masters seruants, and put thy trust on Egypt for charets and horsemen?
Kijan ou kab reziste a menm youn nan pi piti a sèvitè mèt mwen yo e depann de Égypte pou cha ak chevalye?
25 Am I now come vp without the Lord to this place, to destroy it? the Lord sayd to me, Goe vp against this land, and destroy it.
Èske se san soutyen SENYÈ a ke m vin monte kont plas sa a pou detwi li? SENYÈ a te di m ‘Monte kont plas sa a pou detwi l.’”’”
26 Then Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Ioah said vnto Rabshakeh, Speake I pray thee, to thy seruants in the Aramites language, for we vnderstand it, and talke not with vs in the Iewes tongue, in the audience of the people that are on the wall.
Alò Éliakim, fis a Hilkija a, avèk Schebna ak Joach te di a Rabschaké: “Pale koulye a a sèvitè ou yo an Arameyen, paske nou konprann li. Pa pale avèk nou an Jideyen nan zòrèy a moun ki sou mi yo.”
27 But Rabshakeh saide vnto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speake these words, and not to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eate their owne doung, and drinke their owne pisse with you?
Men Rabschaké te di yo: “Èske mèt mwen an te voye m sèlman a mèt pa w la pou pale pawòl sila yo, pa pou mesye ki chita sou mi yo, ki va manje pwòp watè pa yo e bwè dlo pipi pa yo ansanm avè w?”
28 So Rabshakeh stoode and cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes language, and spake, saying, Heare the wordes of the great King, of the king of Asshur.
Epi Rabschaké te kanpe, li te kriye avèk yon vwa fò an Jideyen. Li te di: “Tande pawòl gran wa a, wa Assyrie a!
29 Thus sayth the King, Let not Hezekiah deceiue you: for he shall not be able to deliuer you out of mine hand.
Konsa pale wa a! ‘Pa kite Ézéchias twonpe nou, paske li p ap kab delivre nou pou sòti nan men m.
30 Neither let Hezekiah make you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliuer vs, and this citie shall not be giuen ouer into the hand of the king of Asshur.
Ni pa kite Ézéchias mennen nou pou mete konfyans nan SENYÈ a, pou l di: “SENYÈ a va anverite delivre nou, e vil sa a p ap livre nan men a gran wa a Assyrie a.”
31 Hearken not vnto Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Asshur, Make appointment with me, and come out to me, that euery man may eate of his owne vine, and euery man of his owne figge tree, and drinke euery man of the water of his owne well,
Pa koute Ézéchias.’ Paske konsa pale wa Assyrie a: ‘Fè lapè nou avèk mwen e sòti vin kote mwen. Manje nou chak nan pwòp chan rezen pa nou, nou chak pye fig mi etranje pa nou e nou chak nan pwòp dlo sitèn pa nou,
32 Till I come, and bring you to a land like your owne land, euen a land of wheate and wine, a land of bread and vineyardes, a lande of oliues oyle, and hony, that ye may liue and not die: and obey not Hezekiah, for he deceiueth you, saying, The Lord will deliuer vs.
jiskaske mwen rive pou pran nou ale nan yon lòt peyi, yon peyi ak sereyal avèk diven nèf, yon peyi avèk bwa doliv ak siwo myèl, pou nou kapab viv e pa mouri.’ Men pa koute Ézéchias lè li mal dirije nou pou di: ‘SENYÈ a va delivre nou.’
33 Hath any of the gods of the nations deliuered his lande out of the hand of the King of Asshur?
Èske okenn nan dye a peyi sila yo te delivre peyi pa yo a devan men wa a Assyrie a?
34 Where is the god of Hamah, and of Arpad? where is the god of Sepharuaim, Hena and Iuah? how haue they deliuered Samaria out of mine hand?
Kote dye a Hamath yo oswa Arpad yo? Kote dye a Sepharvaïm yo, oswa Héna avèk Ivva yo? Èske yo te delivre Samarie pou l sòti nan men m?
35 Who are they among all the gods of the nations, that haue deliuered their lande out of mine hand, that the Lord should deliuer Ierusalem out of mine hand?
Kilès pami tout dye a peyi yo ki te delivre peyi pa yo devan men m, pou SENYÈ a ta dwe delivre Jérusalem soti nan men m?”
36 But the people helde their peace, and answered not him a worde: for the Kings commandement was, saying, Answere ye him not.
Men pèp la te rete an silans e pa t reponn menm yon mo; paske lòd a wa a se te “Pa reponn li”.
37 Then Eliakim, the sonne of Hilkiah which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and tolde him the wordes of Rabshakeh.
Epi Éliakim, fis a Hilkija a, ki te sou tout kay la, Schebna, grefye a ak Joach, fis a Asaph la, achivist la, te vin kote Ézéchias avèk rad yo tou chire pou te pale li pawòl a Rabschaké yo.
