2 Chronicles 12
1 It happened, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, that he forsook the law of YHWH, and all Israel with him.
Lè wayòm a Roboam nan te fin etabli e li te gen fòs, li menm ak tout Israël avèk li te abandone lalwa SENYÈ a.
2 It happened in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against YHWH,
Konsa, li te vin rive nan senkyèm ane a Roboam nan, akoz yo pa t fidèl a SENYÈ a, ke Schischak, wa Égypte la, te monte kont Jérusalem,
3 with twelve hundred chariots, and sixty thousand horsemen. The people were without number who came with him out of Egypt: the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.
avèk mil-de-san cha ak swasann-di-mil chevalye. Epi moun ki te vini avèk li soti an Égypte yo te depase kontwòl: Libyen yo, Sikyen ak Etyopyen yo.
4 He took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.
Li te kaptire vil fòtifye Juda yo, e li te rive jis Jérusalem.
5 And Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam, and to the leaders of Judah, who were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, "Thus says YHWH, 'You have forsaken me, therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.'"
Epi Schemaeja, pwofèt la, te vin kote Roboam avèk chèf Juda ki te rasanble nan Jérusalem akoz Schischak yo, e li te di yo: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Ou te abandone Mwen, e pou sa, Mwen te abandone ou bay Schischak.’”
6 Then the leaders of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, "YHWH is righteous."
Pou sa, chèf Israël yo avèk wa a te imilye yo. Yo te di: “SENYÈ a jis.”
7 When YHWH saw that they humbled themselves, the word of YHWH came to Shemaiah, saying, "They have humbled themselves. I will not destroy them; but I will grant them some deliverance, and my wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
Lè SENYÈ a te wè ke yo te imilye yo, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Schemaeja, e te di: “Yo te imilye yo. Pou sa, Mwen p ap detwi yo, men Mwen va ba yo yon mezi delivrans, e lakòlè Mwen p ap vide sou Jérusalem pa mwayen a Schischak.
8 Nevertheless they shall be his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries."
Men yo va devni esklav li, pou yo kab vin konprann antre sèvi Mwen ak sèvi wayòm lòt peyi yo.”
9 So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of YHWH, and the treasures of the king's house. He took it all away. He also took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
Konsa Schischak, wa Égypte la, te monte kont Jérusalem, e li te pran tout trezò lakay SENYÈ a ak trezò nan palè wa a. Li te pran tout bagay.
10 King Rehoboam made in their place shields of bronze, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door of the king's house.
Konsa, Wa Roboam te fè boukliye defans an bwonz pou ranplase yo, e li te mete yo anba pwotèj a kòmandan gad ki te gadyen pòtay lakay wa yo.
11 It was so, that as often as the king entered into the house of YHWH, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back into the guard room.
Depi wa a te antre lakay SENYÈ a, gad yo te pote yo vini, e apre, yo te mennen yo tounen nan chanm gad yo.
12 When he humbled himself, the wrath of YHWH turned from him, so as not to destroy him altogether: and moreover in Judah there were good things found.
Epi lè li te fin imilye li, lakòlè SENYÈ a te vire kite li, pou l pa ta detwi nèt; epi anplis, tout bagay te mache byen an Juda.
13 So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned: for Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which YHWH had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there: and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
Konsa, Wa Roboam te ranfòse tèt li Jérusalem, e li te renye. Alò, Roboam te gen laj karanteyen ane lè li te kòmanse renye, e li te renye di-sèt-ane Jérusalem, vil ke SENYÈ a te chwazi soti nan tout tribi Israël yo pou mete non Li an. Epi non manman li te Naama, Amoreyèn nan.
14 He did that which was evil, because he did not set his heart to seek YHWH.
Li te fè mal, paske li pa t aplike kè l pou konnen SENYÈ a.
15 Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, aren't they written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the way of genealogies? There were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
Alò, zèv a Roboam yo, soti nan premye a jis rive nan dènye a, èske yo pa ekri nan rekò a Schemaeja yo, pwofèt a Iddo a, konseye a, selon anrejistreman zansèt yo? Epi te gen lagè kont Roboam avèk Jéroboam tout tan.
16 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers, and he was buried in the City of David. And Abijah his son reigned in his place.
Konsa, Roboam te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e li te antere nan lavil David la. Epi fis li a, Abija te vin wa nan plas li.
