2 Kings 25
1 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he, and all his army, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it; and they built forts against it round about.
Se konsa sou dizyèm jou dizyèm mwa nevyèm lanne depi Sedesyas te wa a, Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, vin atake lavil Jerizalèm ak tout lame li a. Yo moute kan yo devan miray lavil la, yo mete ranblè nan tout pye miray yo.
2 And the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Yo sènen l' nèt. Yo fèmen lavil la depi lè sa a rive sou onzyèm lanne reny Sedesyas la.
3 And on the ninth day of the fourth month the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
Sou nevyèm jou katriyèm mwa menm lanne sa a, te gen yon sèl grangou nan lavil la, moun yo pa t' gen anyen pou yo manje ankò.
4 And the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which is by the king’s garden: ( now the Chaldees were against the city round about: ) and the king went the way toward the plain.
Yo fè yon twou nan miray yo. Atout lame moun Babilòn yo te sènen lavil la nèt, tout sòlda jwif yo mete deyò kite lavil la nan mitan lannwit. Yo pase nan mitan jaden wa a, yo desann nan wout pòtay la nan mitan de miray yo, yo pran chemen fon Jouden an pou yo.
5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.
Men, lame moun Babilòn yo pousib wa Sedesyas. Lè yo rive nan plenn bò lavil Jeriko yo, yo mete men sou li. Lè sa a, tout sòlda li yo gaye, yo kouri kite l'.
6 So they took the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment upon him.
Sòlda lènmi yo pran wa a, yo mennen l' bay wa Babilòn lan ki te lavil Ribla. Se la Nèbikadneza jije li.
7 And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
Antan yo lavil Ribla, li fè yo koupe kou tout pitit wa Sedesyas yo devan wa a, papa yo. Lèfini, li fè yo pete tou de je wa Sedesyas, epi yo mare l' ak de gwo chenn fèt an kwiv. Yo mennen l' lavil Babilòn.
8 And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzar–adan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
Sou setyèm jou senkyèm mwa nan diznevyèm lanne reny Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, Neboucharadan, chèf lagad la, yonn nan konseye li yo, antre lavil Jerizalèm.
9 And he burnt the house of Yhwh, and the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man’s house burnt he with fire.
Li met dife nan kay Bondye a ak nan palè wa a. Li boule dènye kay ki te lavil Jerizalèm, ata kay grannèg yo.
10 And all the army of the Chaldees, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down the walls of Jerusalem round about.
Li bay sòlda ki te avè l' yo lòd demoli tout gwo miray ranpa lavil Jerizalèm yo met atè.
11 Now the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the fugitives that fell away to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard carry away.
Lèfini, Neboucharadan, chèf lagad la, pran rès moun yo te kite nan lavil la, li depòte yo lavil Babilòn ansanm ak tout moun ki te vin rann tèt yo bay wa Babilòn lan ak tout bon bòs ki te rete nan lavil la.
12 But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
Men, li kite kèk moun nan mas pèp la, nan sa ki te pi pòv yo. Li ba yo jaden rezen ak lòt jaden pou yo okipe.
13 And the pillars of brass that were in the house of Yhwh, and the bases, and the brasen sea that was in the house of Yhwh, did the Chaldees break in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon.
Moun Babilòn yo pran gwo poto kwiv yo ki te nan Tanp Seyè a ansanm ak sipò yo ak basin kwiv yo. Yo kraze yo an ti moso, yo pote kwiv la ale lavil Babilòn.
14 And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.
Yo pran plat pou resevwa sann yo, pèl yo, kouto yo, gode yo, tas yo, kiyè yo ak tout lòt bagay an kwiv yo te konn sèvi nan tanp lan.
15 And the firepans, and the bowls, and such things as were of gold, in gold, and of silver, in silver, the captain of the guard took away.
Chèf lagad la pran kivèt yo, recho yo ak dènye bagay ki te fèt an lò ak an ajan:
16 The two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of Yhwh; the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
de gwo poto won yo, gwo basin lan ak douz estati towo bèf ki te sèvi l' sipò yo, ak kabwèt wa Salomon te fè fè an kwiv pou mete nan Tanp lan. Tout bagay sa yo te lou anpil, pesonn pa t' konn pèz yo.
17 The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and the chapiter upon it was brass: and the height of the chapiter three cubits; and the wreathen work, and pomegranates upon the chapiter round about, all of brass: and like unto these had the second pillar with wreathen work.
Chak poto te gen vennsèt pye wotè. Sou tèt chak poto te gen yon blòk an kwiv sèt pye edmi wotè. Sou tout wonn tèt poto yo, te gen desen ti chenn makònen yonn ak lòt ak anpil pòtre grenad plake sou yo. Tout te fèt an kwiv. De poto yo te parèy.
18 And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door:
Lèfini, Neboucharadan, chèf lagad la, pran Seraja, granprèt la, Sefanya, adjwen granprèt la, ansanm ak twa lòt gwo chèf nan Tanp lan, li fè yo prizonye.
19 And out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war, and five men of them that were in the king’s presence, which were found in the city, and the principal scribe of the army, which mustered the people of the land, and threescore men of the people of the land that were found in the city:
Nan lavil la, li pran chèf ki te kòmandan lame a ansanm ak senk lòt otorite ki te konseye wa a, ak sekretè kòmandan lame a ki te reskonsab pou pran moun nan lame a, ak swasant lòt grannèg. Tout moun sa yo te nan lavil la toujou.
20 And Nebuzar–adan captain of the guard took these, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah:
Neboucharadan pran yo, li mennen yo bay wa Babilòn lan lavil Ribla.
21 And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away out of their land.
Wa a fè bat yo, lèfini, li fè touye yo lavil Ribla nan peyi Amat. Se konsa yo te depòte moun Jida yo byen lwen peyi yo.
22 And as for the people that remained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, even over them he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, ruler.
Nèbikadneza, wa Babilòn lan, pran Gedalya, pitit Achikam, pitit pitit Chafan, li mete l' chèf sou rès moun li te kite nan peyi a.
23 And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, there came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.
Rès chèf lame yo ansanm ak sòlda yo vin konnen wa Babilòn lan te mete Gedalya chèf sou tout peyi a. Se konsa Ismayèl, pitit Netanya, Joanan, pitit Karèd, Seraja, pitit Tannoumèt, moun lavil Netofa, ansanm ak Zezanya, pitit Makan, yo moute lavil Mispa, y' al jwenn Gedalya ansanm ak tout sòlda yo.
24 And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and said unto them, Fear not to be the servants of the Chaldees: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon; and it shall be well with you.
Gedalya di yo: —Mwen ban nou pawòl mwen, nou pa bezwen pè soumèt devan moun Babilòn yo. Rete nan peyi a. Sevi wa Babilòn lan. Tout bagay va mache byen pou nou.
25 But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him at Mizpah.
Nan setyèm mwa a menm lanne sa a, Ismayèl, pitit Netanya, pitit pitit Elichama, rive Mispa ansanm ak dis lòt moun. Ismayèl te yon ti fanmi wa a. Yo touye Gedalya ansanm ak tout gason jwif ki te lavil Mispa avèk Gedalya. Yo touye tout sòlda moun Babilòn ki te la tou.
26 And all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the armies, arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraid of the Chaldees.
Lè sa a, tout moun, granmoun kou timoun, ansanm ak chèf lame yo leve, yo desann peyi Lejip paske yo te pè moun Babilòn yo.
27 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evil–merodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
Premye lanne wa Evilmewodak pran pouvwa a lavil Babilòn, li fè pa Jojakin, wa Jida a, li fè l' soti nan prizon. Lè sa a, Jojakin te gen trannsizan, onz mwa vennsèt jou, jou pou jou, depi yo te depòte l'.
28 And he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon;
Evilmewodak te sèvi byen avè l', li ba l' premye plas nan mitan tout lòt wa yo te depòte lavil Babilòn tankou l' yo.
29 And changed his prison garments: and he did eat bread continually before him all the days of his life.
Li wete rad prizonye ki te sou Jojakin lan, li fè l' vin manje sou menm tab avè l' chak jou jouk Jojakin mouri.
30 And his allowance was a continual allowance given him of the king, a daily rate for every day, all the days of his life.
Chak jou, wa a ba li sa li te bezwen pou l' viv, konsa, konsa, jouk li mouri.
