2 Chronicles 16
1 In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel has come up against Judah, and builds Ramah, so as not to permit any going out and coming in to Asa king of Judah.
Nan trann-sizyèm ane règn Asa a, Baasha, wa a Israël la, te vin monte kont Juda, e li te ranfòse Rama pou anpeche ni antre, ni sòti, vè Asa, wa Juda a.
2 And Asa brings out silver and gold from the treasures of the house of YHWH and of the house of the king, and sends [them] to Ben-Hadad king of Aram, who is dwelling in Damascus, saying,
Konsa, Asa te pote fè sòti ajan avèk lò soti nan trezò lakay SENYÈ a avèk lakay wa a, e li te voye yo kote Ben-Hadad, wa Syrie a, ki te rete Damas la. Li te di:
3 “A covenant [is] between me and you, and between my father and your father, behold, I have sent silver and gold to you; go, break your covenant with Baasha king of Israel, and he goes up from off me.”
“Kite genyen yon alyans antre ou menm avèk mwen, tankou antre papa m ak papa ou. Gade byen, mwen te voye ba ou ajan avèk lò. Ale, kraze alyans ou an avèk Baasha, wa Israël la, pou li retire li sou mwen.”
4 And Ben-Hadad listens to King Asa, and sends the heads of the forces that he has to cities of Israel, and they strike Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-Maim, and all the stores, cities of Naphtali.
Konsa, Ben-Hadad te koute wa Asa. Li te voye chèf lame li yo kont vil Israël yo, e yo te frape Ijjon, Dan, Abel-Maïm, avèk tout vil depo Nephthali yo.
5 And it comes to pass, at Baasha’s hearing, that he ceases from building Ramah, and lets his work rest;
Lè Baasha te tande sa, li te sispann ranfòse Rama, e li te kite travay li.
6 and Asa the king has taken all Judah, and they carry away the stones of Ramah and its wood that Baasha has built [with], and he builds Geba and Mizpah with them.
Alò, Wa Asa te mennen tout Juda, yo te retire wòch Rama yo avèk gwo bwa ki t ap sèvi pou bati yo, e avèk yo, li te ranfòse Guéba avèk Mitspa.
7 And at that time Hanani the seer has come to Asa king of Judah and says to him, “Because of your leaning on the king of Aram, and you have not leaned on your God YHWH, therefore the force of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand.
Nan lè sa a, Hanani, konseye a te vin kote Asa, wa Juda a. Li te di li: “Akoz ou te depann de wa Syrie a e ou pa t depann de SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, pou sa, lame wa Syrie a gen tan chape nan men ou.
8 Did the Cushim and the Lubim not become a very great force for multitude, for chariot, and for horsemen? And in your leaning on YHWH He gave them into your hand,
Èske Etyopyen yo avèk Libyen yo pa t yon lame ki vast avèk anpil cha ak chevalye? Men akoz ou te depann de SENYÈ a, Li te livre yo nan men ou.
9 for YHWH—His eyes go to and fro in all the earth, to show Himself strong [for] a people whose heart [is] perfect toward Him; you have been foolish concerning this, because from now on there are wars with you.”
Paske zye a SENYÈ mache toupatou sou latè pou Li kapab bay soutyen ki fò a sila ki gen kè dedye a Li nèt yo. Nou te aji an foli nan afè sa a. Anverite, depi koulye a, nou va toujou gen gè.”
10 And Asa is angry at the seer, and puts him [in] the house of stocks, for [he is] in a rage with him for this; and Asa oppresses [some] of the people at that time.
Alò, Asa te fache avèk konseye a, e li te mete li nan prizon, paske li te anraje avèk li pou bagay sa a. Epi nan menm lè a, Asa te oprime kèk moun nan pèp la.
11 And behold, the matters of Asa, the first and the last, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Alò, zèv Asa yo, soti nan premye a jis rive nan dènye a, veye byen, yo ekri nan Liv A Wa a Juda avèk Israël yo.
12 And Asa is diseased—in the thirty-ninth year of his reign—in his feet, until his disease is excessive; and also in his disease he has not sought YHWH, but among physicians.
Nan trant-nevyèm ane règn li a, Asa te vin malad nan pye li. Maladi a te grav, men menm nan maladi a, li pa t chache SENYÈ a, men pito doktè.
13 And Asa lies with his fathers, and dies in the forty-first year of his reign,
Konsa, Asa te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo lè l fin mouri nan karanteyinyèm ane règn pa li a.
14 and they bury him in [one of] his graves that he had prepared for himself in the City of David, and they cause him to lie on a bed that [one] has filled [with] spices, and various kinds of mixtures, with perfumed work; and they burn a very great burning for him.
Yo te antere li nan pwòp tonm ke li te fouye pou li menm nan lavil David la, e yo te kouche li nan plas repo ke li te plen avèk plizyè kalite epis ki te mele selon metye a yon moun ki konn fè pafen; epi yo te fè yon trè gwo dife pou li.
