< 1 Kings 22 >
1 And they remained [at rest] three years, there being no war between Syria and Israel.
Pandan twazan, pa t' gen lagè ant peyi Izrayèl ak peyi Siri.
2 And it came to pass in the third year that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
Men nan twazyèm lanne a, Jozafa, wa peyi Jida a, al vizite Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la.
3 And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that Ramoth in Gil'ad is ours, and we remain idle, without taking it out of the hand of the king of Syria?
Wa Izrayèl la di chèf li yo: -Nou konnen lavil Ramòt ki nan peyi Galarad la se pou nou li ye. Poukisa nou pa fè anyen pou nou reprann li nan men wa peyi Siri a?
4 And he said unto Jehoshaphat, Wilt thou go with me to the battle against Ramoth-gil'ad? And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I [will be] like thee, my people like thy people, my horses like thy horses.
Lèfini li mande Jozafa: -Eske w'ap vin avè m' pou atake lavil Ramòt nan peyi Galarad la? Jozafa reponn li: -Mwen menm ak tout sòlda mwen yo ak kavalye mwen yo, nou avè ou ansanm ak pèp ou a: se yonn lan nou ye.
5 And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, today [first] of the word of the Lord.
Apre sa, Jozafa di Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la: -Annou mande Seyè a sa li di nan sa.
6 Then assembled the king of Israel the prophets, about four hundred men, and said unto them, shall I go against Ramoth-gil'ad to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; and the Lord will deliver [it] into the hand of the king.
Se konsa Akab reyini katsan (400) pwofèt li yo, li mande yo: -Eske se pou m' al atake lavil Ramòt nan peyi Galarad la, osinon èske se pou m' kite sa? Yo reponn li: -Atake l', monwa! Seyè a ap lage l' nan men ou.
7 And Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Eternal besides, that we might inquire of him?
Lè sa a, Jozafa di konsa: -Pa gen lòt pwofèt nou ta ka mande si se volonte Seyè a pou n' al fè sa vre?
8 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, by whom we might inquire of the Lord; but I hate him; for he will never prophesy good concerning me, but evil: [it is] Michayhu the son of Yimlah. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
Akab reponn: -Gen yon lòt pwofèt ankò ki ta ka fè sa pou nou. Se Miche, pitit gason Jimla a. Men, m' rayi l', paske li pa janm di anyen ki pou bon pou mwen. Li toujou wè malè pou mwen. Jozafa reponn: -Pa di sa, monchè!
9 Then called the king of Israel a certain officer, and said, Hasten hither Michayhu the son of Yimlah.
Se konsa Akab rele yonn nan nèg konfyans li yo, li di li: -Prese al chache Miche, pitit gason Jimla a, pou mwen.
10 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, dressed in their regal garments, in a threshing-floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.
Wa peyi Izrayèl la ak Jozafa, wa peyi Jida a, te chita, yo chak sou fotèy pa yo ak bèl rad wa yo sou yo, sou gwo glasi ki bò pòtay lavil Samari a sou deyò. Tout pwofèt yo te la devan yo ap bay mesaj pa yo.
11 And Zedekiah the son of Kena'anah had made himself horns of iron; and he said, Thus hath said the Lord, With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until thou have made an end of them.
Yonn ladan yo te rele Sedesyas. Se te pitit Kenana. Li fè fè de kòn an fè. Li di: -Men sa Seyè a di: Avèk kòn sa yo, ou pral atake moun Siri yo, ou pral fini ak yo.
12 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gil'ad, and prosper; and the Lord will deliver it into the king's hand.
Tout lòt pwofèt yo t'ap bay menm mesaj la tou. Yo t'ap di: -Ou mèt al atake Ramòt nan peyi Galarad. W'ap bon. Seyè a ap lage lavil la nan men ou.
13 And the messenger that went to call Michayhu spoke unto him, saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets are with one voice good for the king: do let thy word, I pray thee, be like the word of any one of them, and speak something good.
Mesaje ki te pati al rele Miche a di Miche konsa: -Tout lòt pwofèt yo te pale anfavè wa a. Ranje kò ou pou pale tankou yo tout. Pale anfavè wa a.
14 And Michayhu said, As the Lord liveth, truly, what the Lord may say unto me, that will I speak.
Men, Miche reponn li: -Mwen pran Seyè a, Bondye vivan an, sèvi m' temwen. Sa Seyè a va di m' di se sa m'a di.
15 And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, Michayhu, shall we go against Ramoth-gil'ad to battle, or shall we forbear? And he answered him, Go up, and prosper; and may the Lord deliver it into the hand of the king.
Lè Miche rive devan wa a, wa a di l' konsa: -Miche, èske se pou m' al atake lavil Ramòt nan peyi Galarad, osinon èske sè pou m' kite sa? Miche reponn: -Ou mèt al atake Ramòt nan peyi Galarad. W'ap bon. Seyè a ap lage lavil la nan men ou.
16 And the king said unto him, How many times yet must I adjure thee that thou shalt not speak to me anything but the truth in the name of the Lord?
Men Akab di li: -Konbe fwa pou m' di ou lè w'ap pale avè m' nan non Seyè a se pou di m' laverite?
17 And he said, I saw all Israel scattered over the mountains, as flocks that have not a shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace.
Lè sa a, Miche reponn li: -Mwen wè tout sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo gaye toupatou sou mòn yo, tankou yon bann mouton san gadò. Seyè a di: Moun sa yo san chèf. Kite yo tounen lakay yo ak kè poze.
18 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Did I not say unto thee that he would not prophesy concerning me any good, but [only] evil?
Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la, di Jozafa: -Mwen pa t' di ou li pa janm di anyen ki bon pou mwen. Li toujou wè malè pou mwen.
19 And he said, Therefore hear thou the word of the Lord, I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right and on his left.
Miche pran lapawòl ankò li di: -Bon! Koute mesaj Seyè a. Mwen te wè Seyè a chita sou fotèy li nan syèl la, avèk tout zanj li yo kanpe bò kote l', sou bò dwat ak sou bò gòch li.
20 And the Lord said, Who will persuade Achab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gil'ad! And one said, In this manner, and another said, In that manner.
Seyè a t'ap mande ki moun ki vle al pran tèt Akab pou l' al fè yo touye l' lavil Ramòt. Gen zanj ki di yon bagay, gen lòt zanj ki di yon lòt bagay.
21 And there came forth a spirit, and placed himself before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him. And the Lord said unto him, Wherewith?
Se lè sa a, yon lespri vanse devan Seyè a, li di: Mwen pral pran tèt li.
22 And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou wilt persuade him, and also prevail: go forth, and do so.
Seyè a mande l': Ki jan? Lespri a reponn: Mwen pral mete pawòl manti nan bouch pwofèt Akab yo. Seyè a di l': W'a pran tèt li vre konsa. Ou mèt al fè jan ou di a.
23 And now, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets; but the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee.
Koulye a, ou konnen si Seyè a te mete yon lespri mantò sou pwofèt ou yo pou yo ba ou manti, se paske li pran desizyon pou l' fini avè ou.
24 And Zedekiah, the son of Kena'anah, went near, and struck Michayhu on the cheek, and said, Which way passed the Spirit of the Lord away from me to speak with thee!
Lè sa a, Sedesyas, pitit Kenana a, mache sou Miche, li flanke li yon souflèt. Epi li di l': -Depi kilè lespri Bondye a kite m' pou se nan bouch ou l'ap pale a?
25 And Michayhu said, Behold, thou shalt see it on that day, when thou shalt go into the innermost chamber to hide thyself.
Miche reponn li: -W'a konn sa lè w'a kouri pase soti nan yon chanm antre nan yon lòt pou al kache jouk nan fon!
26 And the king of Israel said, Take Michayhu, and carry him back unto Amon the governor of the city, and unto Joash the king's son;
Se konsa, wa Akab pase yon lòd, li di: -Pran Miche. Mennen l' bay Amon, gouvènè lavil la, ak Joas, pitit wa a.
27 And say, Thus hath said the king, Put this man in the prison, and feed him with sparing bread and with sparing water, until I come home in peace.
Di yo mwen bay lòd pou yo mete l' nan prizon, pou yo ba li renk pen ak dlo jouk m'a tounen soti nan lagè a san danje ni malè.
28 And Michayhu said, If thou return at all in peace, then hath the Lord not spoken through me. And he said, Hear it, O all ye nations!
Lè sa a, Miche di: -Si ou tounen soti nan lagè a san danje ni malè vre, w'a konnen Seyè a pa t' pale nan bouch mwen. Lèfini, li di: -Nou tout pèp yo, koute sa m' di la a wi!
29 So the king of Israel went up with Jehoshaphat the king of Judah to Ramoth-gil'ad.
Se konsa Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la ansanm ak Jozafa, wa peyi Jida a, moute al atake lavil Ramòt nan peyi Galarad.
30 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and enter into the battle; but do thou put on thy regal garments. And the king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.
Akab di Jozafa konsa: -Mwen pral mete yon lòt rad sou mwen anvan m' al goumen an, pou moun pa rekonèt mwen. Ou menm, ou mèt mete rad wa ou sou ou. Se konsa wa peyi Izrayèl la chanje rad sou li pou moun pa rekonèt li. Apre sa, l' al goumen.
31 And the king of Syria had commanded the captains over his chariots, thirty-two [in number], saying, Fight neither with a small nor a great one, save only with the king of Israel alone.
Men, wa peyi Siri a te bay trannde chèf ki t'ap kòmande cha lagè yo pou yo pa atake pesonn pase wa peyi Izrayèl la.
32 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, Surely this is the king of Israel. And they turned aside against him to fight: and Jehoshaphat cried out.
Se konsa, lè kòmandan cha lagè yo wè Jozafa, yo tout te konprann se li ki te wa peyi Izrayèl la. Yo vire sou li pou atake l'. Men, Jozafa rele anmwe.
33 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from following him.
Lè mesye yo tande sa, yo wè se pa t' wa peyi Izrayèl la. Yo rete sou sa yo te vle fè a.
34 But a man drew his bow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the joints and the armor; wherefore he said unto his chariot-driver. Turn about, and carry me out of the camp; for I am wounded.
Lè sa a, yon sòlda peyi Siri a rete konsa li voye yon flèch. Flèch la al pran Akab, wa Izrayèl la, nan fant rad lagè ki te sou li a. Wa a di sòlda ki t'ap mennen cha li a: -Kase tèt tounen. Annou kite batay la, paske mwen blese grav.
35 And the battle increased on that day; and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Syrians; but he died in the evening: and the blood of the wound flowed down into the hollow of the chariot.
Jou sa a, batay la te makònen anpil. Wa Akab menm te blije rete kanpe sou cha li a ap gade moun peyi Siri yo. San t'ap koule soti kote li te blese a, li sal tout anndan cha a. Rive aswè, li mouri.
36 And there went a proclamation throughout the camp at the going down of the sun, saying, Every man to his city, and every man to his own land.
Lè solèy pral kouche, yon vwa pran pale nan zòrèy sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo, li t'ap di: -Chak moun al nan peyi yo, chak moun al lakay yo,
37 So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
paske wa a mouri. Apre sa, yo mennen kadav wa a lavil Samari. Se la yo antere l'.
38 And the chariot was washed out at the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood, as they washed his armor: according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.
Y' al lave cha wa a nan basen Samari a, kote jennès yo konn al benyen an. Chen vin niche san Akab la jan Seyè a te di sa t'ap rive a.
39 Now the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Tout rès istwa Akab la ansanm ak tou sa li te fè, bèl palè ivwa ak lavil li te bati yo, n'a jwenn tou sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.
40 So Achab slept with his fathers: and Achazyahu his son became king in his stead.
Lè Akab mouri, se pitit li, Okozyas ki moute wa nan plas li.
41 And Jehoshaphat the son of Assa became king over Judah in the fourth year of Achab the king of Israel.
Akab te gen katran depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl la lè Jozafa, pitit Asa a, moute sou fotèy wa peyi Jida a.
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty and five years old when he became king, and twenty and five years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was 'Azubah the daughter of Shilchi.
Lè sa a, li te gen trannsenkan sou tèt li. Li pase vennsenkan ap gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm. Manman li te rele Azouba. Se te pitit fi Chilki.
43 And he walked in all the ways of Assa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing what is right in the eyes of the Lord: Nevertheless the high-places were not removed; for the people still offered, and burnt incense on the high-places.
Jozafa li menm te swiv Asa, papa l', pye pou pye nan tou sa l' te fè. Li te fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a. Tansèlman, tanp zidòl yo te la toujou nan peyi a, kifè pèp la pa t' sispann fè sèvis, touye bèt pou zidòl yo.
44 And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
Jozafa te siyen lapè ak wa peyi Izrayèl la.
45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his mighty deeds that he showed, and how he warred, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
n'a jwenn rès istwa Jozafa a nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo. Se la yo rakonte jan li te yon vanyan sòlda, ak tout lagè li te fè yo,
46 And the remnant of the sodomites, that had been left in the days of his father Assa, did he put away out of the land.
jan li disparèt rès gason ak fanm ki t'ap fè jennès nan kay zidòl yo toujou depi sou rèy Asa, papa l'.
47 There was then no king in Edom: a deputy was king.
(Lè sa a, pa t' gen wa nan peyi Edon. Se yon gouvènè wa Jida a te mete pou gouvènen yo.)
48 Jehoshaphat made Tharshish-ships to go to Ophir for gold; but they went not; for the ships were wrecked at 'Ezyon-geber.
Jozafa te fè fè kèk gwo batiman, tankou batiman moun Tasis yo, pou al chache lò nan peyi Ofi. Men, batiman yo pa janm rive al fè vwayaj la, paske yo kraze bò Ezyongebè.
49 Then said Achazyahu the son of Achab unto Jehoshaphat, Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not.
Lè sa a, Okozyas, pitit Akab la, ofri pou maren peyi Izrayèl yo ale ansanm ak maren peyi Jida yo sou batiman pa yo. Men, Jozafa derefize.
50 And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Jehoram his son became king in his stead.
Lè Jozafa mouri, yo antere l' nan Lavil David, zansèt li a. Se pitit li, Joram, ki moute sou fotèy la nan plas li.
51 Achazyahu the son of Achab became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah; and he reigned over Israel two years.
Jozafa t'ap mache sou disetan depi li te wa peyi Jida a, lè Okozyas, pitit Akab, moute sou fotèy wa peyi Izrayèl la. Li pase dezan ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl la lavil Samari.
52 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who had induced Israel to sin.
Li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a. Li swiv egzanp papa l' ak manman l'. Li fè tankou Jewoboram, pitit gason Nebat la, ki te lakòz moun pèp Izrayèl yo fè sa ki mal.
53 And he served Ba'al, and bowed down to him, and he provoked to anger the Lord the God of Israel, all just as his father had done.
Li sèvi Baal, li adore l' tankou papa l' te fè a. Se konsa li te fè Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, fache anpil.
