2 Kings 3
1 Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.
Alò Joram, fis Achab la te devni Wa sou Israël nan Samarie nan di-zuityèm ane a Josaphat, wa Juda a, e li te renye pandan douzan.
2 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, but not like his father, and like his mother; for he put away the pillar of Baal that his father had made.
Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a, malgre, se pa tankou papa li avèk manman li. Paske li te retire pilye sakre a Baal ke papa li te fè a.
3 Nevertheless he held to the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; he did not depart from it.
Sepandan, li te kenbe rèd a peche Jéroboam, fis a Nebat la. Avèk sila li te fè Israël peche a. Li pa t kite yo.
4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheep breeder; and he rendered to the king of Israel the wool of one hundred thousand lambs, and of one hundred thousand rams.
Alò, Mesha, wa Moab la te yon mèt ki fò nan pran swen mouton. Li te konn peye wa Israël la avèk lenn a san-mil jenn mouton ansanm avèk lenn san-mil belye.
5 But it happened, when Ahab was dead, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
Men lè Achab te vin mouri, wa Moab la te fè rebèl kont wa Israël la.
6 King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time, and mustered all Israel.
Konsa, wa Joram te kite Samarie nan tan sa a pou te rasanble tout Israël.
7 He went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, "The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me against Moab to battle?" He said, "I will go up. I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses."
Alò, li te voye kote Josaphat, wa Juda a. Li te di: “Wa Moab la te fè rebèl kont mwen. Èske ou va monte avè m pou goumen kont Moab?” Li te reponn: “M ap monte. Mwen tankou ou menm e pèp mwen an tankou pèp pa w la, cheval mwen yo tankou cheval pa ou yo.”
8 He said, "Which way shall we go up?" He answered, "The way of the wilderness of Edom."
Konsa, li te mande: “Nan ki chemen nou dwe monte?” Wa Joram te reponn: “Pa chemen dezè ki nan Édom an.”
9 So the king of Israel went, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom; and they made a circuit of seven days' journey. There was no water for the army, nor for the animals that followed them.
Konsa, wa Israël la te ale avèk wa Juda a ak wa Édom an e nan vwayaj la, yo fè yon tou mache pandan sèt jou, e pa t gen dlo pou lame a ak pou betay ki te swiv yo.
10 The king of Israel said, "Alas. For the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab."
Alò, wa Israël la te di: “Elas! Konsa SENYÈ a te rele twa wa sa yo pou lage yo nan men Moab.”
11 But Jehoshaphat said, "Isn't there here a prophet of the LORD, that we may inquire of the LORD by him?" One of the king of Israel's servants answered, "Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah."
Men Josaphat te di: “Èske pa gen yon pwofèt SENYÈ a isit la, pou nou kapab fè demann SENYÈ a pa li menm?” Youn nan sèvitè wa yo te reponn. Li te di: “Élisée, fis a Schaphath la, ki te konn vide dlo sou men a Élie yo isit la.”
12 And Jehoshaphat said, "The word of the LORD is with him." So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah and the king of Edom went down to him.
Josaphat te di: “Pawòl SENYÈ a avèk li.” Konsa, wa Israël la avèk Josaphat, avèk wa Édom an te desann kote li.
13 Elisha said to the king of Israel, "What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father, and to the prophets of your mother." The king of Israel said to him, "No; for the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab."
Alò, Élisée te di a wa Israël la: “Kisa m gen avè w? Ale kote pwofèt a papa ou avèk pwofèt a manman ou yo.” Wa Israël la te reponn: “Non, paske SENYÈ a te rele twa wa sila yo ansanm pou livre yo nan men a wa Moab la.”
14 Elisha said, "As the LORD of hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I respect the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward you, nor see you.
Élisée te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, devan sila mwen kanpe a, si se pa ke m respekte prezans a Josaphat, wa Juda a, mwen pa t ap gade ou, ni wè ou.
15 But now bring me a minstrel." It happened, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the LORD came on him.
Men koulye a, mennen ban mwen yon mizisyen.” Epi li te vin rive ke lè mizisyen an te jwe, men SENYÈ a te vini sou Elisée.
16 He said, "Thus says the LORD, 'Make this valley full of trenches.'
Li te di: “Konsa di SENYÈ a: ‘Fè vale sila a vin ranpli avèk kanal.’
17 For thus says the LORD, 'You will not see wind, neither will you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, and you will drink, both you and your livestock and your animals.
Paske konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Ou p ap wè van ni ou p ap wè lapli. Malgre sa, vale sila a va vin ranpli avèk dlo pou nou kab bwè; ni nou, ni bèf nou yo, ni bèt nou yo.
18 This is but a light thing in the sight of the LORD. He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
Sa se sèlman yon tikras bagay nan zye SENYÈ a. Anplis, Li va livre Moabit yo nan men nou.
19 You shall strike every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.'"
Konsa, nou va frape chak vil ki fòtifye e chak nan pi bèl vil yo, koupe mete atè tout bon pyebwa, bouche tout sous dlo e gate tout bon mòso tè avèk wòch yo.’”
20 It happened in the morning, about the time of offering the offering, that look, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
Li te vin rive nan maten vè lè pou ofri sakrifis la, ke vwala, dlo te sòti vè direksyon Édom e peyi a te vin ranpli avèk dlo.
21 Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all who were able to put on armor, and upward, and stood on the border.
Alò, tout Moabit yo te tande ke wa yo te monte pou goumen kont yo. Epi tout moun ki te kapab, te mete vètman pwotèj yo e sila avèk plis laj yo te resevwa lòd pou vin kanpe sou lizyè fwontyè a.
22 They rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone on the water, and the Moabites saw the water over against them as red as blood.
Yo te leve bonè nan maten, solèy la te vin klere sou dlo a, e Moabit yo te wè dlo anfas yo a wouj tankou san.
23 They said, "This is blood. The kings are surely destroyed, and they have struck each other. Now therefore, Moab, to the spoil."
Konsa, yo te di: “Sa se san. Asireman, wa yo te goumen ansanm e youn te touye lòt. Pou sa, Moab, antre pran piyaj la!”
24 When they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and struck the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they went forward into the land smiting the Moabites.
Men lè yo te rive nan kan Israël la, Izrayelit yo te leve e te frape Moabit yo jiskaske yo te kouri devan yo. Epi yo te avanse nan peyi a e te fè yon gwo masak pami Moabit yo.
25 They beat down the cities; and on every good piece of land they cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the springs of water, and felled all the good trees, until in Kir Hareseth only they left its stones; however the men armed with slings went about it, and struck it.
Konsa, yo te detwi vil yo, epi chak moun te jete yon wòch sou chak mòso bon tè pou te plen yo. Epi yo te bouche tout sous dlo yo e te koupe tout bon pyebwa yo, jis yo rive nan Kir-Haréseth kote se sèl wòch li yo ki rete. Men mesye fistibal yo te antoure li e te frape li.
26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle was too severe for him, he took with him seven hundred men who drew sword, to break through to the king of Edom; but they could not.
Lè wa Moab la te wè ke batay la te twò mechan pou li, li te pran avèk li sèt-san mesye ki te rale nepe pou ouvri yon pasaj pou rive kote wa Édom an; men yo pa t kapab.
27 Then he took his eldest son who would have reigned in his place, and offered him for a burnt offering on the wall. There was great wrath against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.
Alò, li te pran pi gran fis li a ki te gen pou renye nan plas li, e li te ofri li kòm yon ofrann brile sou mi lan. Epi te vin gen lakòlè byen cho kont Israël, e yo te kite li pou retounen nan peyi pa yo.
