2 Chronicles 15
1 And the Spirit of God has been on Azariah son of Oded,
Alò, Lespri Bondye a te vini sou Azaria, fis a Obed la.
2 and he goes out before Asa and says to him, “Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; YHWH [is] with you—in your being with Him, and if you seek Him, He is found by you, and if you forsake Him, He forsakes 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 and many days [are] to Israel without [the] true God, 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 and it turns back in its distress to YHWH, God of Israel, and they seek Him, and He is found by 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 is no peace for him who is going out, and for him who is coming in, for many troubles [are] on all the inhabitants of the lands,
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 they have been beaten down, nation by nation, and city by city, for God has troubled them with every adversity;
Nasyon te kraze pa nasyon, vil pa vil, paske Bondye te twouble yo avèk tout kalite gwo twoub.
7 and you, be strong, and do not let your hands be feeble, for there is a reward for your work.”
Men nou menm, kenbe fèm e pa pèdi kouraj, paske gen rekonpans pou travay nou yo.”
8 And at Asa’s hearing these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he has strengthened himself, and causes the abominations to pass away out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities that he has captured from the hill-country of Ephraim, and renews the altar of YHWH that [is] 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 gathers all Judah and Benjamin, and the sojourners with them out of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and out of Simeon—for they have defected to him from Israel in abundance, in their seeing that his God YHWH [is] 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 And they are gathered to Jerusalem in the third month of 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 sacrifice to YHWH on that day from the spoil they have brought in—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 enter into a covenant to seek YHWH, God 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 and everyone who does not seek for YHWH, God of Israel, is put to death, from small to great, from man to 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 swear to YHWH with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with horns,
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 rejoices concerning the oath, for they have sworn with all their heart, and they have sought Him with all their goodwill, and He is found by them, and YHWH gives rest to them all around.
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 Maachah, mother of Asa the king—he has removed her from [being] mistress, in that she has made for an Asherah a horrible thing, and Asa cuts down her horrible thing, and beats [it] small, and burns [it] by the Brook of 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 yet the high places have not been removed from Israel; only, the heart of Asa has been 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 brings in the sanctified things of his father, and his own sanctified things, to the house of God: 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 war has not been until the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa.
Epi pa t gen lagè ankò jis rive nan trann-senk ane règn a Asa a.
