< 2 Chronicles 18 >

1 And Jehoshaphat has riches and honor in abundance, and joins affinity to Ahab,
Alò Josaphat te gen gwo richès avèk lonè; epi li te fè alyans avèk Achab pa maryaj.
2 and goes down at the end of [certain] years to Samaria to [visit] Ahab, and Ahab sacrifices sheep and oxen in abundance for him and for the people who [are] with him, and persuades him to go up to Ramoth-Gilead.
Kèk ane pita, li te desann kote Achab Samarie. Konsa, Achab te touye anpil mouton avèk bèf pou li avèk moun ki te avèk li yo, e li te konvenk li monte kont Ramoth-Galaad.
3 And Ahab king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, “Do you go with me [to] Ramoth-Gilead?” And he says to him, “As I—so you, and as your people—my people, and [we go] with you into the battle.”
Achab, wa Israël la, te di a Josaphat, wa Juda a: “Èske ou va monte avèk mwen kont Ramoth-Galaad?” Konsa, li te di li: “Mwen tankou ou menm e pèp mwen an tankou pèp pa w la, nou avèk ou nan batay la.”
4 And Jehoshaphat says to the king of Israel, “Please seek the word of YHWH this day.”
Anplis, Josaphat te di a wa Israël la: “Souple, fè ankèt avan pou pawòl SENYÈ a.”
5 And the king of Israel gathers the prophets, four hundred men, and says to them, “Do we go to Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I refrain?” And they say, “Go up, and God gives [it] into the hand of the king.”
Epi wa Israël la te rasanble tout pwofèt yo, kat-san mesye. Li te di yo: “Èske nou dwe monte kont Ramoth-Galaad pou batay, oswa èske mwen dwe fè bak?” Epi yo te reponn: “Ale monte, paske Bondye va livre li nan men a wa a.”
6 And Jehoshaphat says, “[Is there] not still a prophet of YHWH here, and we seek from him?”
Men Josaphat te di: “Èske pa gen toujou yon pwofèt SENYÈ a pou nou kab mande sa?”
7 And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat, “[There is] still one man to seek YHWH from him, and I have hated him, for he is not prophesying of good concerning me, but of evil [for] all his days, he [is] Micaiah son of Imlah”; and Jehoshaphat says, “Do not let the king say so.”
Wa Israël la te di a Josaphat: “Gen youn toujou ke nou kab fè demann a SENYÈ a, men mwen rayi li, paske li pa janm pwofetize sa ki bon pou mwen, men toujou, mal. Li se Michée, fis Jimla a.” Men Josaphat te di: “Pa kite wa a pale konsa.”
8 And the king of Israel calls to a certain officer and says, “Hurry Micaiah son of Imlah.”
Konsa, wa Israël la te rele yon ofisye e te di: “Fè vit, mennen Michée, fis Jimla a.”
9 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah are sitting, each on his throne, clothed with garments, and they are sitting in a threshing-floor at the opening of the Gate of Samaria, and all the prophets are prophesying before them.
Alò, wa Israël la avèk Josaphat, wa Juda a te chita yo chak sou twòn yo, abiye ak manto yo. Yo te chita kote glasi vannen an nan antre pòtay Samarie a, epi tout pwofèt yo t ap pwofetize devan yo.
10 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah makes horns of iron for himself and says, “Thus said YHWH:
Sédécias, fis a Kenaana a, te fè kòn an fè pou kont li. Li te di: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ‘Avèk sila yo, ou va frennen Siryen yo, jiskaske yo fin detwi nèt.’”
11 With these you push Aram until you have consumed them.” And all the prophets are prophesying so, saying, “Go up [to] Ramath-Gilead and prosper, and YHWH has given [it] into the hand of the king.”
Tout pwofèt yo t ap pwofetize konsa. Yo t ap di: “Ale monte Ramoth-Galaad e reyisi, paske SENYÈ a va livre li nan men a wa a.”
12 And the messenger who has gone to call for Micaiah has spoken to him, saying, “Behold, the words of the prophets [as] one mouth [are] good toward the king, and please let your word be like one of theirs: and you have spoken good.”
Konsa, mesaje ki te ale fè demand prezans Michée a te pale avèk li. Li te di: “Gade byen, pawòl a pwofèt yo favorab nèt pou wa a. Konsa, souple, kite pawòl ou fèt tankou pa yo a e pale anfavè li.”
13 And Micaiah says “YHWH lives, surely that which my God says, I speak it.”
Men Michée te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, sa ke Bondye mwen an di, se sa mwen va pale.”
14 And he comes to the king, and the king says to him, “Micaiah, do we go to Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I refrain?” And he says, “Go up, and prosper, and they are given into your hand.”
Lè li te rive kote wa a, wa a te di li: “Michée, èske nou dwe monte Ramoth-Galaad pou batay la, oswa èske mwen dwe fè bak?” Li te di: “Ale monte e reyisi, paske yo va livre nan men ou.”
15 And the king says to him, “How many times am I adjuring you that you speak to me only truth in the Name of YHWH?”
Epi wa a te di li: “Konbyen fwa mwen oblije fè demann ke ou pa pale anyen sof ke laverite nan non SENYÈ a?”
16 And he says, “I have seen all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd, and YHWH says, There are no masters for these, they each return to his house in peace.”
Konsa, li te reponn: “Mwen te wè tout Israël gaye sou mòn yo tankou mouton ki pa t gen bèje. Konsa, SENYÈ a te di: ‘Sila yo pa gen mèt. Kite yo chak retounen lakay yo anpè.’”
17 And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not say to you [that] he does not prophesy good concerning me, but rather of evil?”
Wa Israël la te di a Josaphat: “Èske mwen pa t di ou ke li pa t pwofetize sa ki bon pou mwen, men sa ki mal?”
18 And [Micaiah] says, “Therefore, hear a word of YHWH: I have seen YHWH sitting on His throne, and all the host of the heavens standing on His right and His left;
Michée te di: “Pou sa, tande pawòl SENYÈ a: Mwen te wè SENYÈ a ki te chita sou twòn li an ak tout lame syèl la ki te kanpe adwat Li ak agoch Li.
19 and YHWH says, Who entices Ahab king of Israel, and he goes up and falls in Ramoth-Gilead? And this speaker says thus, and that speaker thus.
SENYÈ a te di: ‘Kilès k ap sedwi Achab, wa Israël la, pou monte tonbe Ramoth-Galaad?’ Epi youn te di sa, pandan yon lòt te di yon lòt bagay.
20 And the spirit goes out, and stands before YHWH, and says, I entice him; and YHWH says to him, With what?
Alò, yon lespri te parèt e te kanpe devan SENYÈ a. Li te di: Mwen va sedwi li.’” “Epi SENYÈ a te di: ‘Kijan’?
21 And he says, I go out, and have become a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets. And He says, You entice, and also, you are able; go out and do so.
“Li te reponn: ‘Mwen va ale fè l tankou yon lespri manti nan bouch a tout pwofèt li yo.’ “Epi Li te di: ‘Ou dwe sedwi li e genyen li tou. Ale fè sa.’
22 And now, behold, YHWH has put a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of these prophets of yours, and YHWH has spoken calamity concerning you.”
“Alò, pou sa, gade byen, SENYÈ a te mete yon lespri manti nan bouch a sila yo, pwofèt ou yo, paske SENYÈ a te pwoklame dega kont ou.”
23 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah comes near and strikes Micaiah on the cheek, and says, “Where [is] this—the way the spirit [from] YHWH passed over from me to speak with you?”
Konsa, Sédécias, fis a Kenaana a, te pwoche. Li te frape Michée sou machwè l e te di: “Ki kote chemen Lespri SENYÈ a te fè kite mwen pou pale avè w?”
24 And Micaiah says, “Behold, you see in that day that you enter into the innermost chamber to be hidden.”
Michée te di: “Gade byen, nan jou ke ou antre nan chanm anndan pou kache kò ou la, ou va wè sa.”
25 And the king of Israel says, “Take Micaiah, and turn him back to Amon head of the city, and to Joash son of the king,
Alò, wa Israël la te di: “Pran Michée e fè l retounen kote Amon, majistra vil la ak Joas, fis a wa a.
26 and you have said, Thus said the king: Put this [one] in the house of restraint, and cause him to eat bread of oppression, and water of oppression, until my return in peace.”
Di yo: ‘Konsa pale wa a: “Mete nonm sila a nan prizon a, e ba li tikras pen ak dlo jiskaske m retounen anpè.”’”
27 And Micaiah says, “If you certainly return in peace, YHWH has not spoken by me”; and he says, “Hear, O peoples, all of them!”
Michée te di: “Si, anverite, ou ta retounen anpè, SENYÈ a pa t vrèman pale avèk mwen.” Li te di: “Koute byen, tout pèp yo!”
28 And the king of Israel goes up—and Jehoshaphat king of Judah—to Ramoth-Gilead;
Konsa, wa Israël avèk Josaphat, wa Juda a, te monte kont Ramoth-Galaad.
29 and the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat to disguise himself, and to go into battle, “And you, put on your garments.” And the king of Israel disguises himself, and they go into battle.
Wa Israël la te di a Josaphat: “Mwen va kache idantite mwen pou antre nan batay la, e ou menm, mete pwòp manto ou.” Konsa, wa Israël la te kache idantite li, e yo te antre nan batay la.
30 And the king of Aram has commanded the heads of the charioteers whom he has, saying, “You do not fight with small or with great, except with the king of Israel by himself.”
Alò, wa Syrie a te kòmande chèf a cha li yo. Li te di: “Pa goumen avèk piti ni gran, men avèk wa Israël la sèlman.”
31 And it comes to pass at the heads of the charioteers seeing Jehoshaphat, that they have said, “He is the king of Israel,” and they turn around against him to fight, and Jehoshaphat cries out, and YHWH has helped him, and God entices them from him;
Pou sa, lè chèf a cha yo te wè Josaphat, yo te di: “Li se wa Israël la,” e yo te vire akote pou goumen kont li. Men Josaphat te kriye anmwey, e SENYÈ a te fè l sekou. Bondye te angaje yo pou yo te kite l.
32 indeed, it comes to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing that it has not been the king of Israel—they turn back from after him.
Lè chèf cha yo te wè ke se pa t wa Israël la, yo te retounen pa swiv li.
33 And a man has drawn with a bow in his simplicity, and strikes the king of Israel between the joinings and the coat of mail, and he says to the charioteer, “Turn your hand, and you have brought me out of the camp, for I have become [gravely] sick.”
Yon sèten nonm te rale banza li pa aza, e te frape wa Israël la nan yon kwen nan pwotèj kò a. Konsa, li te pale a chofè cha a: “Vire tounen e fè m sòti nan batay la, paske mwen blese byen grav.”
34 And the battle increases on that day, and the king of Israel has been propped up in the chariot in front of Aram until the evening, and he dies at the time of the going in of the sun.
Batay la te chofe byen rèd tout jounen an e wa Israël te fòse pou l te kab kanpe nan cha li a devan Siryen yo jis rive nan aswè; epi nan kouche solèy la, li te mouri.
