1 Kings 15
1 Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of Nebat began Abijam to reign over Judah.
Alò, nan di-zuityèm ane a Wa Jéroboam, fis Nebat la, Abijam te vin wa sou Juda.
2 Three years reigned he in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
Li te renye pandan twazan nan Jérusalem. Non manman li se te Maaca, fis a Abisalom lan.
3 And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father.
Li te mache nan tout peche a papa li te fè devan li yo. Kè li pa t dedye nèt a SENYÈ a, Bondye li a, tankou kè a papa zansèt li a, David.
4 Nevertheless for David’s sake did the LORD his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem:
Men pou koz David, SENYÈ a, Bondye li a, te ba li yon lanp nan Jérusalem, pou fè leve monte fis li apre li, e pou etabli Jérusalem.
5 because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
Li te fè sa paske David te fè sa ki te dwat nan zye a SENYÈ a, e li pa t vire akote de nenpòt sa ke Li te kòmande li pandan tout jou lavi li, sof ke ka a Urie a, Etyen an.
6 Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
Te gen lagè antre Roboam avèk Jéroboam pandan tout vi li.
7 And the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Abijam avèk tout sa li te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik a Wa a Juda yo? Anplis, te gen lagè antre Abijam avèk Jéroboam.
8 And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead.
Epi Abijam te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e yo te antere li nan lavil David. Asa, fis li a te devni wa nan plas li.
9 And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Asa to reign over Judah.
Konsa, nan ventyèm ane a Jéroboam, wa Israël la, Asa te kòmanse renye kòm wa nan Juda.
10 And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
Li te renye pandan karanteyen ane Jérusalem. Non manman li se te Maaca, fi a Abisalom lan.
11 And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.
Asa te fè sa ki te dwat nan zye SENYÈ a tankou David, papa zansèt li a.
12 And he put away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
Anplis, li te retire mal pwostitiye nan peyi a e li te retire tout zidòl ke zansèt li yo te fè yo.
13 And also Maacah his mother he removed from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; and Asa cut down her image, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.
Anplis, li te fè retire Maaca, manman li nan pozisyon rèn nan, paske li te fè yon imaj abominab tankou yon Astarté. Asa te koupe imaj abominab li a e li te brile li nan flèv Cédron an.
14 But the high places were not taken away: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with the LORD all his days.
Men wo plas yo pa t retire. Malgre sa, kè Asa te dedye nèt a SENYÈ a pandan tout jou li yo.
15 And he brought into the house of the LORD the things that his father had dedicated, and the things that himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
Li te fè antre nan kay SENYÈ a tout afè dedye pa papa li avèk tout afè dedye pa li menm; zouti fèt an ajan avèk lò.
16 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Alò te gen lagè antre Asa avèk Baescha, wa Israël la pandan tout jou pa yo.
17 And Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not suffer any to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
Baescha, wa Israël la, te monte kont Juda e te ranfòse Rama pou anpeche moun antre, oswa sòti kote Asa, wa Juda a.
18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king’s house, and delivered them into the hand of his servants: and king Asa sent them to Ben-hadad, the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,
Asa te pran tout ajan avèk lò ki te rete nan trezò lakay SENYÈ a ak trezò lakay wa a e li te livre yo nan men a sèvitè li yo. Epi Wa Asa te voye yo bay Ben-Hadad, fis Thabrimmon an, fis a Hezjon an, wa Syrie a, ki te rete Damas la. Li te di:
19 [There is] a league between me and thee, between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
“Kite yon akò fèt antre ou menm avèk mwen, tankou antre papa ou avèk papa m. Gade byen, mwen voye ba ou yon kado ajan avèk lò. Ale kraze akò ou avèk Baescha, wa Israël la, pou li retire lame li a sou mwen.”
20 And Ben-hadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-beth-maacah, and all Chinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
Konsa, Ben-Hadad te koute Wa Asa e te voye chèf lame li yo kont vil Israël yo, li te bat yo e pran Ijjon, Dan, Abel-Beth-Maaca, tout Kinneroth la ak tout teritwa Nephtali a.
21 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard thereof, that he left off building of Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah.
Lè Baescha fin tande koze sa a, li te sispann ranfòse Rama e li te vin rete Thirtsa.
22 Then king Asa made a proclamation unto all Judah; none was exempted: and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha had builded; and king Asa built therewith Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
Epi Wa Asa te fè yon pwoklamasyon a tout Juda——nanpwen pèsòn ki te eksepte——-epi yo tout te pote ale tout wòch nan Rama yo avèk bwa ke Baescha te sèvi pou bati yo. Wa Asa te bati avèk yo, Guéba nan Benjamin ak Mitspa.
23 Now the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
Alò, tout lòt zèv Asa yo avèk tout pwisans li, tout sa li te fè ak vil ke li te bati yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik a Wa a Juda yo? Men nan tan vyeyès li, li te aflije avèk maladi nan pye li.
24 And Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead.
Konsa, Asa te dòmi avèk zansèt pa li yo e li te antere avèk zansèt li yo nan lavil David la, papa li. Epi Josaphat te renye nan plas li.
25 And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel two years.
Alò, Nadab, fis a Jéroboam nan, te vin wa sou Israël nan dezyèm ane Asa a, wa Juda a e li te renye sou Israël pandan dezan.
26 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.
Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a e li te mache nan chemen papa li ak nan peche avèk sila li te fè Israël peche a.
27 And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.
Alò, Baescha, fis Achija a, a lakay Issacar a, te fè konplo kont Nadab, e Baescha te frape l fè l mouri nan Guibbethon, ki te apatyen a Filisten yo, pandan Nadab avèk tout Israël t ap fè syèj nan Guibbethon.
28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasha slay him, and reigned in his stead.
Konsa, Baescha te touye li nan twazyèm ane Asa a, wa Juda a e li te vin renye nan plas li.
29 And it came to pass that, as soon as he was king, he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him; according unto the saying of the LORD, which he spake by the hand of his servant Ahijah the Shilonite:
Li te vin rive ke depi li te wa a, li te frape tout lakay Jéroboam. Li pa t kite a Jéroboam okenn moun vivan, jiskaske li te detwi yo nèt, selon pawòl ke SENYÈ a te pale pa sèvitè li a, Achija, Siloyit la.
30 for the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and wherewith he made Israel to sin; because of his provocation wherewith he provoked the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger.
Akoz peche ke Jéroboam te fè yo e avèk sila, li te fè Israël peche yo, akoz pwovokasyon li avèk sila li te pwovoke SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, a lakòlè.
31 Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the hook of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Alò, lòt zèv a Nadab yo avèk tout sa ke li te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik a Wa Israël yo?
32 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Te gen lagè antre Asa avèk Baescha, fis a Achija a pandan tout jou pa yo.
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah began Baasha the son of Ahijah to reign over all Israel in Tirzah, [and reigned] twenty and four years.
Nan twazyèm ane Asa a, wa a Juda a, Baescha, fis a Achija a, te devni wa sou tout Israël nan Thirtsa e li te renye venn-kat ane.
34 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.
Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a e li te mache nan chemen Jéroboam ak nan peche pa li avèk sila li te fè Israël peche yo.
