2 Chronicles 12
1 And it comes to pass, at the establishing of the kingdom of Rehoboam, and at his strengthening himself, he has forsaken the Law of YHWH, and all Israel with him.
Lè wayòm a Roboam nan te fin etabli e li te gen fòs, li menm ak tout Israël avèk li te abandone lalwa SENYÈ a.
2 And it comes to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt has come up against Jerusalem—because they trespassed against YHWH—
Konsa, li te vin rive nan senkyèm ane a Roboam nan, akoz yo pa t fidèl a SENYÈ a, ke Schischak, wa Égypte la, te monte kont Jérusalem,
3 with one thousand and two hundred chariots, and with sixty thousand horsemen, and there is no number to the people who have come with him out of Egypt—Lubim, Sukkiim, and Cushim—
avèk mil-de-san cha ak swasann-di-mil chevalye. Epi moun ki te vini avèk li soti an Égypte yo te depase kontwòl: Libyen yo, Sikyen ak Etyopyen yo.
4 and he captures the cities of the bulwarks that [are] of Judah, and comes to Jerusalem.
Li te kaptire vil fòtifye Juda yo, e li te rive jis Jérusalem.
5 And Shemaiah the prophet has come to Rehoboam and the heads of Judah who have been gathered to Jerusalem [to escape] from the presence of Shishak, and says to them, “Thus said YHWH: You have forsaken Me, and also, I have left you in the hand of Shishak”;
Epi Schemaeja, pwofèt la, te vin kote Roboam avèk chèf Juda ki te rasanble nan Jérusalem akoz Schischak yo, e li te di yo: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Ou te abandone Mwen, e pou sa, Mwen te abandone ou bay Schischak.’”
6 and the heads of Israel are humbled—and the king—and they say, “YHWH [is] righteous.”
Pou sa, chèf Israël yo avèk wa a te imilye yo. Yo te di: “SENYÈ a jis.”
7 And when YHWH sees that they have been humbled, a word of YHWH has been [sent] to Shemaiah, saying, “They have been humbled; I do not destroy them, and I have given to them as a little thing for an escape, and I do not pour out My fury in Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak;
Lè SENYÈ a te wè ke yo te imilye yo, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Schemaeja, e te di: “Yo te imilye yo. Pou sa, Mwen p ap detwi yo, men Mwen va ba yo yon mezi delivrans, e lakòlè Mwen p ap vide sou Jérusalem pa mwayen a Schischak.
8 but they become servants to him, and they know My service, and the service of the kingdoms of the lands.”
Men yo va devni esklav li, pou yo kab vin konprann antre sèvi Mwen ak sèvi wayòm lòt peyi yo.”
9 And Shishak king of Egypt comes up against Jerusalem, and takes the treasures of the house of YHWH and the treasures of the house of the king—he has taken the whole—and he takes the shields of gold that Solomon had made;
Konsa Schischak, wa Égypte la, te monte kont Jérusalem, e li te pran tout trezò lakay SENYÈ a ak trezò nan palè wa a. Li te pran tout bagay.
10 and King Rehoboam makes shields of bronze in their stead, and has given [them] a charge on the hand of the heads of the runners who are keeping the opening of the house of the king;
Konsa, Wa Roboam te fè boukliye defans an bwonz pou ranplase yo, e li te mete yo anba pwotèj a kòmandan gad ki te gadyen pòtay lakay wa yo.
11 and it comes to pass, from the time of the going in of the king to the house of YHWH, the runners have come in and lifted them up, and brought them back to the chamber of the runners.
Depi wa a te antre lakay SENYÈ a, gad yo te pote yo vini, e apre, yo te mennen yo tounen nan chanm gad yo.
12 And in his being humbled, the wrath of YHWH has turned back from him, so as not to destroy to completion; and also, there have been good things in Judah.
Epi lè li te fin imilye li, lakòlè SENYÈ a te vire kite li, pou l pa ta detwi nèt; epi anplis, tout bagay te mache byen an Juda.
13 And King Rehoboam strengthens himself in Jerusalem and reigns; for Rehoboam [is] a son of forty-two years in his reigning, and he has reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that YHWH has chosen to put His Name there, out of all the tribes of Israel, and the name of his mother [is] Naamah the Ammonitess,
Konsa, Wa Roboam te ranfòse tèt li Jérusalem, e li te renye. Alò, Roboam te gen laj karanteyen ane lè li te kòmanse renye, e li te renye di-sèt-ane Jérusalem, vil ke SENYÈ a te chwazi soti nan tout tribi Israël yo pou mete non Li an. Epi non manman li te Naama, Amoreyèn nan.
14 and he does evil, for he has not prepared his heart to seek YHWH.
Li te fè mal, paske li pa t aplike kè l pou konnen SENYÈ a.
15 And the matters of Rehoboam, the first and the last, are they not written among the matters of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer, concerning genealogy? And the wars of Rehoboam and Jeroboam [are for] all the days;
Alò, zèv a Roboam yo, soti nan premye a jis rive nan dènye a, èske yo pa ekri nan rekò a Schemaeja yo, pwofèt a Iddo a, konseye a, selon anrejistreman zansèt yo? Epi te gen lagè kont Roboam avèk Jéroboam tout tan.
16 and Rehoboam lies with his fathers, and is buried in the City of David, and his son Abijah reigns in his stead.
Konsa, Roboam te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e li te antere nan lavil David la. Epi fis li a, Abija te vin wa nan plas li.
