2 Chronicles 25
1 Amaziah was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
Amatsia te gen laj a venn-senkan lè l te devni wa, e li te renye vent-nevan Jérusalem. Non manman li te Joaddan de Jérusalem.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of Yhwh, but not with a perfect heart.
Li te fè sa ki dwat nan zye SENYÈ a, sepandan, pa avèk tout kè l.
3 Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established to him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father.
Alò, li te vin rive depi wayòm nan te byen solid nan men l, ke li te touye sèvitè li yo ki te touye papa li, wa a.
4 But he slew not their children, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, where Yhwh commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.
Sepandan, li pa t touye pitit yo, men li te swiv sa ki ekri nan lalwa nan liv Moïse la, ke SENYÈ a te kòmande, ki te di: “Papa yo p ap mete a lanmò pou fis yo, ni fis yo p ap mete a lanmò pou papa yo, men chak moun va mete a lanmò pou pwòp peche pa l.”
5 Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according to the houses of their fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield.
Anplis, Amatsia te rasanble Juda, e li te òganize yo selon lakay papa yo anba chèf a dè milye e chèf a dè santèn toupatou nan Juda avèk Benjamin. Li te pran yon kontwòl global a sila soti nan ventan oswa plis yo, e li te twouve yo a twa-san-mil mesye, byen chwazi pou fè lagè ak manyen lans ak pwotèj.
6 He hired also an hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for an hundred talents of silver.
Li te anplwaye osi san-mil gèrye plen kouraj ki sòti an Israël pou san talan ajan.
7 But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for Yhwh is not with Israel, to wit, with all the children of Ephraim.
Men yon nonm Bondye te rive kote li e te di: “O Wa, pa kite lame Israël la ale avèk ou, paske SENYÈ a pa avèk Israël, ni avèk okenn nan fis Éphraïm yo.
8 But if thou wilt go, do it, be strong for the battle: God shall make thee fall before the enemy: for God hath power to help, and to cast down.
Men si ou ale, aji avèk fòs pou batay la. Bondye va rale ou desann devan lènmi yo, paske Bondye gen pouvwa pou ede e pou desann.”
9 And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, Yhwh is able to give thee much more than this.
Amatsia te di a nonm Bondye a: “Men kisa n ap fè pou afè san talan ke m te bay a sòlda Israël yo?” Nonm Bondye a te di: “Senyè a gen bokou plis pou bay pase sa.”
10 Then Amaziah separated them, to wit, the army that was come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger.
Konsa, Amatsia te voye yo ale, sòlda ki te rive kote li soti Éphraïm yo, pou rive lakay yo. Akoz sa a, kòlè yo te brile kont Juda e yo te retounen lakay ak gwo kòlè.
11 And Amaziah strengthened himself, and led forth his people, and went to the valley of salt, and smote of the children of Seir ten thousand.
Alò, Amatsia te ranfòse tèt li; li te mennen pèp li a sòti pou ale nan Vale Sèl la, e te frape di-mil nan fis a Séir yo.
12 And other ten thousand left alive did the children of Judah carry away captive, and brought them unto the top of the rock, and cast them down from the top of the rock, that they all were broken in pieces.
Fis a Juda yo, anplis, te kaptire di-mil tou vivan. Yo te mennen yo anwo pwent falèz la, e te jete yo anba soti anwo falèz la, jiskaske yo tout te kraze chire an mòso.
13 But the soldiers of the army which Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell upon the cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth–horon, and smote three thousand of them, and took much spoil.
Men sòlda ke Amatsia te voye retounen pou yo pa ale nan batay la avèk li yo, te atake vil a Juda yo, soti Samarie jis rive Beth-Horon. Yo te frape twa-mil nan yo, e te piyaje anpil byen yo.
14 Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them.
Alò, lè Amatsia te sòti nan masak Edomit yo, li te pote dye a fis a Séir yo. Li te pozisyone yo tankou dye pa li, pou l bese ba devan yo e te brile lansan a yo menm.
15 Wherefore the anger of Yhwh was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent unto him a prophet, which said unto him, Why hast thou sought after the gods of the people, which could not deliver their own people out of thine hand?
Lakòlè Bondye te brile kont Amatsia, e Li te voye pwofèt Li ki te di l: “Poukisa ou te swiv dye a pèp sa a, ki pa t kab delivre pwòp pèp pa yo nan men ou?”
16 And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said unto him, Art thou made of the king’s counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.
Pandan li t ap pale avèk li, wa a te di li: “Èske nou te chwazi ou menm kòm konseye wayal? Rete! Poukisa w ap chache mouri?” Epi pwofèt la te rete. Li te di: “Mwen konnen ke Bondye deja fè plan pou detwi ou, paske ou te fè bagay sa a e pa t koute konsèy mwen.”
17 Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us see one another in the face.
Alò, Amatsia, wa Juda a te pran konsèy moun pa l. Li te voye kote Joas, fis a Joachaz la, fis a Jéhu a, wa Israël la. Li te di l: “Vini, annou parèt fasafas.”
18 And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle.
Joas, wa Israël la te voye kote Amatsia, wa Juda a. Li te di: “Bwa pikan ki te Liban an te voye kote bwa sèd ki te Liban an, e te di: ‘Bay fi ou a fis mwen nan maryaj.’ Men yon bèt sovaj nan Liban te pase akote e te foule bwa pikan an.
19 Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten the Edomites; and thine heart lifteth thee up to boast: abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle to thine hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?
Ou di nan tèt ou: ‘Gade byen, mwen te bat Édom.’ Konsa kè ou vin plen ak ògèy e anfle. Alò, rete lakay ou! Poukisa ou ta pwovoke twoub pou tèt ou, jiskaske ou menm, ou ta tonbe e Juda avèk ou?”
20 But Amaziah would not hear; for it came of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought after the gods of Edom.
Men Amatsia pa t ap koute, paske sa te soti nan Bondye, ki ta livre yo nan men lèdmi yo, akoz yo te chache dye Édom yo.
21 So Joash the king of Israel went up; and they saw one another in the face, both he and Amaziah king of Judah, at Beth–shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.
Konsa Joas, wa Israël la te monte, e li menm avèk Amatsia, wa Juda a te fè fasafas nan Beth-Schémesch, ki te pou Juda a.
22 And Judah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent.
Juda te bat pa Israël, e yo chak te kouri nan pwòp tant yo.
23 And Joash the king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth–shemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
Alò Joas, wa Israël la te kaptire Amatsia, wa Juda a, fis a Joas la, fis a Joachaz la, nan Beth-Schémesch. Li te mennen li Jérusalem, e li te chire miray Jérusalem nan soti nan Pòtay Éphraïm nan jis rive nan Pòtay Kwen an, kat-san koude nan longè.
24 And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of God with Obed–edom, and the treasures of the king’s house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
Li te pran tout lò avèk ajan ak tout zouti ki te twouve lakay Bondye a avèk Obed-Édom ak trezò lakay wa a, ansanm avèk prizonye yo, e te retounen Samarie.
25 And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
Epi Amatsia, fis a Joas la, wa Juda a, te viv kenzan apre lanmò Joas, fis a Joachaz la, wa Israël la.
26 Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Amatsia yo, soti nan premye a jis rive nan dènye a, men gade, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv A Wa Juda Avèk Israël yo?
27 Now after the time that Amaziah did turn away from following Yhwh they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him, and slew him there.
Depi lè ke Amatsia te vire kite SENYÈ a, yo te fè konplo kont li Jérusalem, e li te sove ale Lakis, men yo te voye dèyè li Lakis e te touye li la.
28 And they brought him upon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
Konsa, yo te mennen li sou cheval e te antere li avèk zansèt li yo lavil Juda.
