2 Chronicles 34
1 Josiah [is] a son of eight years in his reigning, and he has reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem,
Jozyas te gen witan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan tranteyennan.
2 and he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, and walks in the ways of his father David, and has not turned aside [to] the right or left.
Jozyas te fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a. Li mache pye pou pye dèyè David, zansèt li a. Li fè tankou l' nan tou sa l'ap fè, san li pa janm fè sa ki mal.
3 And in the eighth year of his reign (and he [is] yet a youth), he has begun to seek for the God of his father David, and in the twelfth year he has begun to cleanse Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the Asherim, and the carved images, and the molten images.
Jozyas t'ap mache sou witan depi li te wa lè li konmanse chache konnen volonte Bondye David, zansèt li a. Lè sa a li te yon jenn gason toujou. Li t'ap mache sou douzan depi li te wa lè li konmanse fè detwi tout tanp zidòl, tout pòtre Achera, tout lòt estati an bwa ak an bwonz nan peyi Jida ak nan lavil Jerizalèm.
4 And they break down the altars of the Ba‘alim before him, and he has cut down the images that [are] on high above them, and the Asherim, and the carved images, and the molten images, he has broken and beaten small, and strews [them] on the surface of the graves of those sacrificing to them,
Li fè yo demoli devan je li tout lotèl kote yo te fè sèvis pou Baal yo. Li fè yo kraze tout recho kote yo te boule lansan sou lotèl yo. Li fè yo kraze an miyèt moso pòtre Achera ak pòtre tout lòt zidòl ak estati an bwonz yo. Apre sa, yo fè yo tounen poud, yo simen poud la sou tonm moun ki te konn fè sèvis pou yo.
5 and he has burned the bones of the priests on their altars, and cleanses Judah and Jerusalem,
Li boule zosman prèt zidòl yo sou lotèl kote yo te konn fè sèvis pou yo a. Se konsa li mete tout peyi Jida a ak lavil Jerizalèm nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
6 and in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even to Naphtali, with their tools, all around.
Li fè menm bagay la tou nan lavil ki nan zòn moun Manase, moun Efrayim, ak moun Simeyon yo rive nan zòn moun Neftali yo ak nan tout ti bouk ki te nan vwazinaj yo.
7 And he breaks down the altars and the Asherim, and he has beaten down the carved images very small, and he has cut down all the images in all the land of Israel, and turns back to Jerusalem.
Nan tout peyi Izrayèl la, li fè demoli lotèl yo. Li kraze tout estati Achera yo ak lòt zidòl yo fè yo tounen poud. Yo kraze tout lotèl lansan yo an miyèt moso, lèfini li tounen lavil Jerizalèm.
8 And in the eighteenth year of his reign, to purify the land and the house, he has sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah head of the city, and Joah son of Johaz the remembrancer, to strengthen the house of his God YHWH.
Lè sa a, wa Jozyas t'ap mache sou dizwitan depi li t'ap gouvènen, li t'ap mete peyi a ansanm ak Tanp lan nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Bondye. Wa a rele twa moun: Chafan, pitit gason Asalya a, Maseya, gouvènè lavil la, ak Joa, pitit gason Joakaz, sekretè wa a. Li ba yo lòd al repare Tanp Seyè a, Bondye li a.
9 And they come to Hilkiah the high priest, and they give the money that is brought into the house of God, that the Levites, keeping the threshold, have gathered from the hand of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and from all the remnant of Israel, and from all Judah, and Benjamin, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
Mesye yo al jwenn Ilkija, granprèt la. Yo pote ba li tout lajan yo te ranmase nan Tanp lan, lajan moun Levi ki desèvis nan papòt Tanp lan te ranmase nan men moun Efrayim, moun Manase ak lòt moun peyi Izrayèl yo, ansanm ak sa yo te ranmase nan men moun Jida, moun Benjamen ak moun lavil Jerizalèm yo.
10 and they give [it] into the hand of the workmen, those appointed over the house of YHWH, and they give it [to] the workmen who are working in the house of YHWH, to repair and to strengthen the house;
Yo renmèt lajan an nan men mesye ki te reskonsab travay ki pou fèt nan Tanp lan, pou yo menm yo ka peye moun k'ap travay repare Tanp lan, ki vle di,
11 and they give [it] to craftsmen and to builders to buy hewn stones, and wood for couplings and for beams [for] the houses that the kings of Judah had destroyed.
bòs chapant yo ak bòs mason yo, pou yo ka achte wòch taye ak bwa yo bezwen pou sèvi sipò ak ranfò chapant tanp wa Jida yo te kite ap tonbe a.
12 And the men are working faithfully in the business, and over them are appointed Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathite, to overlook; and of the Levites, everyone understanding about instruments of song,
Mesye yo te serye nan travay yo. Te gen kat moun Levi ki t'ap dirije yo. Se te: Joak ak Obadya, moun nan branch fanmi Merari a, Zekaraja ak Mechoulam, moun nan branch fanmi Keyat. Moun Levi ki te konn fè mizik sou enstriman yo
13 and over the burden-bearers, and overseers of everyone doing work for every service; and of the Levites [are] scribes, and officers, and gatekeepers.
te reskonsab moun ki t'ap bwote materyo yo ak tout lòt ouvriye ki t'ap fè lòt travay yo. Te gen lòt moun Levi ki te reskonsab ekri istwa tou sa k'ap pase. Genyen ki te sekretè, genyen ki t'ap fè pòs nan papòt yo.
14 And in their bringing out the money that is brought into the house of YHWH, Hilkiah the priest has found the Scroll of the Law of YHWH by the hand of Moses,
Pandan yo t'ap wete lajan yo te mete nan Tanp Seyè a, Ilkija, prèt la, jwenn liv Lalwa Seyè a te bay Moyiz pou pèp la.
15 and Hilkiah answers and says to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found [the] Scroll of the Law in the house of YHWH”; and Hilkiah gives the scroll to Shaphan,
Ilkija pale ak Chafan, sekretè a, li di l' li jwenn liv Lalwa a nan Tanp Seyè a. Epi li ba li l'.
16 and Shaphan brings in the scroll to the king, and brings the king back word again, saying, “All that has been given into the hand of your servants they are doing,
Chafan pote liv la bay wa a, epi li fè rapò li, li di l' konsa: -Nou fè tou sa ou te ban nou lòd fè.
17 and they pour out the money that is found in the house of YHWH, and give it into the hand of those appointed and into the hands of those doing the work.”
Yo pran tout lajan ki te nan Tanp Seyè a, yo renmèt li nan men moun ki reskonsab fè reparasyon nan Tanp lan ak moun k'ap fè travay yo.
18 And Shaphan the scribe declares [it] to the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has given a scroll to me”; and Shaphan reads in it before the king.
Lèfini, Chafan di wa a: -Ilkija, prèt la, te ban m' yon liv. Chafan li liv la pou wa a.
19 And it comes to pass, at the king’s hearing the words of the Law, that he tears his garments,
Lè wa a tande pawòl ki te ekri nan Liv la, li chire rad sou li tèlman li te sezi.
20 and the king commands Hilkiah, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Abdon son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah, servant of the king, saying,
Lèfini, li fè rele Ilkija, prèt la, Akikam, pitit gason Chafan an, Abdon, pitit Mikaja a, Chafan, sekretè a, ak Asaja, nèg konfyans wa a. Li ba yo lòd sa a:
21 “Go, seek YHWH for me, and for him who is left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the scroll that is found, for great [is] the fury of YHWH that is poured on us, because that our fathers did not keep the word of YHWH to do according to all that is written on this scroll.”
-Ale chache konnen sa Seyè a vle nou fè, mwen menm ansanm ak tout rès pèp li a ki rete nan peyi Jida ak nan peyi Izrayèl la. Chache konnen sa pou n' fè ak pawòl ki nan liv nou jwenn lan. Seyè a move anpil sou nou, paske zansèt nou yo pa t' koute pawòl Seyè a, ni yo pa t' fè tou sa ki ekri nan liv la.
22 And Hilkiah goes, and they of the king, to Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum son of Tikvath, son of Hasrah, keeper of the garments, and she is dwelling in Jerusalem in the Second [Quarter], and they speak to her thus.
Se konsa, Ilkija ansanm ak lòt mesye wa a te chwazi yo al kay Oulda, yon pwofèt fanm ki te rete nan katye yo te fèk bati lavil Jerizalèm lan. Oulda sa a te madanm yon nonm yo te rele Chaloum, pitit Tokeyat, pitit pitit Asra a, ki te reskonsab rad yo sèvi nan Tanp lan. Yo esplike Oulda tou sa ki rive.
23 And she says to them, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Say to the man who has sent you to me,
Oulda di yo konsa: -Men sa Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, di: Tounen al di moun ki voye nou bò kote m' lan
24 Thus said YHWH: Behold, I am bringing in calamity on this place and on its inhabitants, all the execrations that are written on the scroll that they read before the king of Judah,
men mesaj Seyè a voye ba li: Mwen pral voye yon malè sou lavil Jerizalèm ansanm ak sou tout moun li yo, jan sa ekri nan liv yo li pou wa peyi Jida a.
25 because that they have forsaken Me, and make incense to other gods, so as to provoke Me with all the works of their hands, and My fury is poured out on this place, and it is not quenched.
Moun lavil Jerizalèm yo vire do ban mwen. Yo fè sèvis pou lòt bondye. Avèk tout zak sa yo, mwen move anpil sou lavil Jerizalèm. Kòlè m' poko ap pase.
26 And to the king of Judah who is sending you to inquire of YHWH, thus you say to him, Thus said YHWH God of Israel, whose words you have heard:
Men sa n'a di wa peyi Jida a ki voye nou vin konnen volonte Bondye a. Wi, men sa Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, voye di l': Ou tande sa ki ekri nan liv la.
27 Because your heart [is] tender, and you are humbled before God in your hearing His words concerning this place and concerning its inhabitants, and are humbled before Me, and tear your garments, and weep before Me, indeed, I have also heard [you]—a declaration of YHWH.
Sa fè kè ou fè ou mal, ou desann ou devan mwen lè ou tande deklarasyon mwen fè sou lavil sa a ak sou tout moun li yo. Wi, lè ou tande sa, ou chire rad sou ou, dlo koule nan je ou. Se poutèt sa mwen menm tou mwen tande ou. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap di ou sa.
28 Behold, I am gathering you to your fathers, and you have been gathered to your graves in peace, and your eyes do not look on all the calamity that I am bringing on this place and on its inhabitants”; and they bring the king back word.
Ou menm, w'ap mouri nan kabann ou, y'ap antere ou nan menm kavo ak zansèt ou yo. Ou p'ap gen tan wè malè m'ap voye sou lavil Jerizalèm ak sou moun ki rete ladan l' yo. Mesye yo tounen rapòte mesaj la bay wa Jozyas.
29 And the king sends and gathers all the elderly of Judah and Jerusalem,
Lè sa a, wa a voye misyon bay tout chèf fanmi nan lavil Jerizalèm ak nan tout peyi Jida a, pou yo reyini ansanm avè l'.
30 and the king goes up to the house of YHWH, and [to] every man of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, even all the people, from great even to small, and he reads in their ears all the words of the scroll of the covenant that is found in the house of YHWH.
Apre sa, wa a moute nan Tanp Seyè a ansanm ak prèt yo, moun Levi yo, tout moun peyi Jida yo, moun ki rete lavil Jerizalèm yo ak tout rès pèp la, grannèg kou tinèg. Wa a kanpe devan yo tout, li li byen fò tou sa ki nan liv Kontra yo te jwenn nan Tanp Seyè a.
31 And the king stands on his station, and makes the covenant before YHWH to walk after YHWH, and to keep His commands, and His testimonies, and His statutes, with all his heart and with all his soul, to do the words of the covenant that are written on this scroll.
Lè li fini, li rete kanpe nan plas rezève pou li bò gwo poto a, li pran angajman devan Seyè a pou li fè volonte Seyè a, pou li mache dapre kòmandman, prensip ak lalwa Bondye yo ak tout kè li ak tout nanm li, lèfini pou l' kenbe tout kondisyon kontra ki ekri nan liv la.
32 And he presents everyone who is found in Jerusalem and Benjamin, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem do according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
Apre sa, wa a fè tout moun ki te lavil Jerizalèm ansanm ak moun branch fanmi Benjamen yo pran menm angajman an tou. Depi lè sa a, moun lavil Jerizalèm yo mache dapre kontra yo te pase ak Bondye zansèt yo a.
33 And Josiah turns aside all the abominations out of all the lands that the sons of Israel have, and causes everyone who is found in Israel to serve, to serve their God YHWH; all his days they did not turn aside from after YHWH, God of their fathers.
Jozyas fè disparèt tout vye zidòl sal nan peyi ki te pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Li mete tout moun ki te rete nan peyi Izrayèl la nan obligasyon pou yo sèvi Seyè a, Bondye yo a. Se konsa pandan tout tan Jozyas te vivan an, tout pèp la te kenbe pye Seyè a, Bondye zansèt yo a, fèm.
