2 Chronicles 15
1 And the Spirit of Elohim came upon Azariah the son of Oded:
Alò, Lespri Bondye a te vini sou Azaria, fis a Obed la.
2 And he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; YHWH is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.
Li te sòti deyò pou rankontre Asa e li te di li: “Koute mwen, Asa e tout Juda avèk Benjamin: SENYÈ a avèk nou lè nou avèk Li. Epi si ou chache Li, Li va kite ou jwenn Li; men si ou abandone Li, Li va abandone ou.
3 Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true Elohim, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
Pandan anpil jou, Israël te kon san vrè Bondye a, san enstriksyon, san prèt e san lalwa.
4 But when they in their trouble did turn unto YHWH Elohim of Israel, and sought him, he was found of them.
Men nan gran twoub yo, yo te vire kote SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la. Yo te chache Li e yo te jwenn Li.
5 And in those times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great vexations were upon all the inhabitants of the countries.
Nan tan sa yo, pa t gen lapè pou sila ki sòti, ni sila ki antre a, paske anpil gwo zen te twouble tout moun ki te rete nan peyi yo.
6 And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for Elohim did vex them with all adversity.
Nasyon te kraze pa nasyon, vil pa vil, paske Bondye te twouble yo avèk tout kalite gwo twoub.
7 Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.
Men nou menm, kenbe fèm e pa pèdi kouraj, paske gen rekonpans pou travay nou yo.”
8 And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of YHWH, that was before the porch of YHWH.
Lè Asa te tande pawòl sila yo avèk pwofesi ke Azaria, fis a Obed la, te pale a, li te pran kouraj, e li te retire zidòl abominab yo soti nan tout peyi Juda avèk Benjamin yo, ak nan vil ke li te kaptire nan peyi kolin Éphraïm yo. Lè l fini, li te restore lotèl SENYÈ a ki te devan galri SENYÈ a.
9 And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that YHWH his Elohim was with him.
Li te rasanble tout Juda avèk Benjamin avèk tout sila ki te sòti Éphraïm, Manassé ak Siméon yo, ki te rete avèk yo, paske anpil nan yo te vin jwenn li soti an Israël lè yo te wè ke SENYÈ a, Bondye a, te avèk li.
10 So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
Konsa, yo te rasanble Jérusalem nan twazyèm mwa, nan kenzyèm ane, nan règn Asa a.
11 And they offered unto YHWH the same time, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
Yo te fè sakrifis bay SENYÈ a nan jou sa a, sèt-san bèf avèk sèt-mil mouton soti nan piyaj ke yo te pote a.
12 And they entered into a covenant to seek YHWH Elohim of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
Yo te antre nan akò pou chache SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt pa yo a, avèk tout kè yo ak nanm yo;
13 That whosoever would not seek YHWH Elohim of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
epi ke nenpòt moun ki te refize chache SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, ta dwe mete a lanmò, piti kon gran, gason kon fanm.
14 And they sware unto YHWH with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
Anplis, yo te fè yon sèman bay SENYÈ avèk yon gwo kri, avèk twonpèt e avèk ti twonpèt wo vwa a.
15 And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and YHWH gave them rest round about.
Tout Juda te rejwi akoz sèman an, paske yo te sèmante avèk tout kè yo. Yo te chache Li ak kè onèt yo, e Li te kite yo jwenn Li. Konsa, SENYÈ a te ba yo repo tout kote.
16 And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he removed her from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove: and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.
Anplis, li te retire Maaca, manman a Wa Asa a, nan pozisyon rèn nan, akoz li te fè imaj li byen abominab tankou yon Astarté, e Asa te fè koupe imaj abominab li a. Li te kraze li, e li brile li nan flèv Cédron an.
17 But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
Men wo plas yo pat retire soti an Israël; sepandan, kè Asa te san repwòch pandan tout jou li yo.
18 And he brought into the house of Elohim the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
Li te pote lakay SENYÈ a tout bagay dedye ki te pou papa li ak bagay dedye ki te pou li yo: ajan avèk lò avèk zouti.
19 And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
Epi pa t gen lagè ankò jis rive nan trann-senk ane règn a Asa a.
