2 Chronicles 36
1 And the people of the land took Jehoahaz, son of Josiah, —and made him king instead of his father, in Jerusalem.
Alò, pèp peyi a te pran Joachaz, fis Josias la, e yo te fè li wa nan plas papa li Jérusalem.
2 Twenty-three years old, was Joahaz when he began to reign, —and, three months, reigned he in Jerusalem.
Joachaz te gen venn-twazan lè l te vin wa, e li te renye twa mwa Jérusalem.
3 And the king of Egypt deposed him in Jerusalem, —and condemned the land, in a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
Epi wa Egypte la te retire li sou pouvwa a Jérusalem, e li te egzije yon kontribisyon de san talan ajan ak yon talan lò sou peyi a.
4 And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim, —but Neco took, Joahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
Wa Egypte la te fè Éliakim, frè l la, wa sou Juda avèk Jérusalem, e li te chanje non li an Jojakim. Men Néco te pran frè li a, Joachaz e te mennen li an Égypte.
5 Twenty-five years old, was Jehoiakim when he began to reign, and, eleven years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh his God.
Jojakim te gen laj a venn-senkan lè l te devni wa e li te renye onzan Jérusalem. Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a, Bondye li a.
6 Against him, came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, —and bound him in fetters of bronze, to carry him to Babylon.
Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te monte kont li, e te mare li avèk chenn an bwonz pou mennen li Babylone.
7 And, some of the utensils of the house of Yahweh, did Nebuchadnezzar carry to Babylon, —and put them in his own temple in Babylon.
Anplis, Nebucadnetsar te mennen kèk nan bagay ki sòti lakay SENYÈ a Babylone, e te mete yo nan tanp Babylone nan.
8 But, the rest of the story of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he made, and that which was found upon him, there they are, written in the book of the Kings of Israel and Judah, —and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Jojakim yo avèk abominasyon ke li te fè yo, ak sa ki te twouve kont li yo, men vwala, yo ekri nan Liv A Wa A Israël Avèk Juda yo. Epi Jojakin, fis li a, te vin wa nan plas li.
9 Eight years old, was Jehoiachin when he began to reign, and, three months and ten days, reigned he in Jerusalem, and he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh;
Jojakin te gen laj a uitan lè l te vin wa, e li te renye twa mwa avèk dis jou Jérusalem. Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a.
10 and, when the year came round, King Nebuchadnezzar sent, and carried him to Babylon, with the precious utensils of the house of Yahweh, —and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
Nan kòmansman ane a, Wa Nebucadnetsar te mennen li Babylone avèk bagay byen chè ki te sòti lakay SENYÈ a. Li te fè moun fanmi li, Sédécias, wa sou Juda avèk Jérusalem.
11 Twenty-one years old, was Zedekiah when he began to reign, —and, eleven years, reigned he in Jerusalem.
Sédécias te gen laj a ven-te-yen nan lè l te vin wa e li te renye pandan onzan Jérusalem.
12 And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh his God, -he humbled not himself before Jeremiah the prophet, from the mouth of Yahweh.
Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a, Bondye li a. Li pa t imilye li menm devan Jérémie, pwofèt ki te pale pou SENYÈ a.
13 Moreover also—against King Nebuchadnezzar, he rebelled, who had made him swear by God, -and he stiffened his neck, and emboldened his heart, from turning unto Yahweh, God of Israel.
Anplis, li te fè rebèl kont Wa Nebucadnetsar ki te fè li sèmante fidelite pou Bondye. Men li te fè tèt di, e avèk kè di, li te refize vire vè SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la.
14 Also, all the rulers of the priests and of the people, abounded in committing treachery, according to all the abominable ways of the nations, —and polluted the house of Yahweh, which he had hallowed in Jerusalem.
Epi, ofisye a prèt yo avèk pèp la te manke fidèl anpil nan swiv tout abominasyon a nasyon yo, e yo te konwonpi kay ke SENYÈ a te fè sen Jérusalem nan.
15 And, though Yahweh God of their fathers sent unto them through his messengers, zealously sending them, —because he had compassion upon his people and upon his habitation,
SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt pa yo a, te voye kote yo tout tan pa mesaje pa Li yo, akoz li te gen mizerikòd vè pèp li a ak sou kote ke Li te abite a;
16 yet became they mockers of the messengers of God, and despisers of his words, and mimics of his prophets, —until the mounting up of the wrath of Yahweh against his people, until there was no healing.
men yo te giyonnen mesaje Bondye yo, yo te meprize pawòl Li, e yo te moke pwofèt Li yo, jiskaske kòlè SENYÈ a te leve kont pèp Li a jiskaske pa t gen remèd pou sa.
17 So he brought up against them the king of the Chaldeans, who slew their young men with the sword, in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or virgin, elder or ancient, -all, delivered he into his hand.
Akoz sa, Li te mennen kont yo wa a Kaldeyen yo ki te touye jennonm yo avèk nepe nan kay sanktyè yo a, e Li pa t fè gras pou jèn moun, ni vyèj, ni granmoun, ni moun enfim. Li te livre tout nan men li.
18 And, all the utensils of the house of God, both great and small, and the treasures of the house of Yahweh, and the treasures of the king and of his rulers, the whole, carried he to Babylon;
Tout bagay ki te sòti lakay SENYÈ a, gran kon piti, trezò lakay SENYÈ a ak trezò a wa yo avèk ofisye li yo, li te mennen tout Babylone.
19 and they burned the house of God, and threw down the wall of Jerusalem, —and, all the palaces thereof, burned they with fire, and, all the precious vessels thereof, he destroyed;
Anfen, yo te brile kay Bondye a, yo te kraze miray Jérusalem nan, yo te brile tout konstriksyon fòtifye li yo avèk dife, e yo te detwi tout bagay valab li yo.
20 and he exiled the remnant left from the sword, into Babylon, —where they became his and his sons, as servants, until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
Sila ki te chape anba nepe yo, li te pote yo ale Babylone; epi yo te sèvitè li avèk fis li jiskaske wayòm Perse la te vin monte.
21 to fulfil the word of God, by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had paid off her sabbaths, —all the days of her lying desolate, she kept sabbath, to fulfil seventy years.
Sa te fèt pou fin akonpli pawòl SENYÈ a pa bouch a Jérémie, jiskaske tè a te fin rejwi de tout Saba li yo. Pandan tout jou dezolasyon li yo, li te kenbe Saba a jiskaske swasann-dizan an te fin pase.
22 But, in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, to accomplish the word of God by the mouth of Jeremiah, Yahweh aroused the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made proclamation throughout all his kingdom, moreover also in writing, saying:
Alò, nan premye ane Cyrus la, Perse la—-pou l te kab akonpli pawòl SENYÈ a pa bouch Jérémie——SENYÈ a te boulvèse lespri a Cyrus, wa Perse la, pou li ta voye yon pwoklamasyon toupatou nan wayòm li an e anplis, ekri li pou di:
23 Thus, saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth, hath Yahweh God of the heavens, given unto me, and, he himself, hath laid charge upon me, to build to him a house, in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people with whom is Yahweh his God? Then let him go up.
Konsa pale Cyrus, wa Perse la: “SENYÈ a, Bondye Syèl la, te ban mwen tout wayòm yo sou latè, e Li te mete m anba lòd pou bati pou Li yon kay Jérusalem, ki nan Juda. Ke SENYÈ a, Bondye pa li a, kapab avèk li e kite li monte.”
