< 2 Chronicles 13 >
1 In year eight-teen of the king Jeroboam and he became king Abijah over Judah.
Jewoboram te gen dizwitan depi li te wa peyi Izrayèl la, lè Abija moute wa nan peyi Jida.
2 Three years he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Micaiah [the] daughter of Uriel from Gibeah and war it was between Abijah and between Jeroboam.
Li gouvènen pandan twazan lavil Jerizalèm. Manman l' te rele Mikaja. Se te pitit fi Ouryèl, moun lavil Gibeya. Se te yon lagè san rete ant Abija ak Jewoboram.
3 And he bound Abijah the battle with an army of mighty [men] of war four hundred thousand man chosen. And Jeroboam he drew up in formation with him battle with eight hundred thousand man chosen mighty of strength.
Abija leve yon lame katsanmil (400.000) vanyan sòlda ki konn goumen. Jewoboram bò pa l' kanpe pou goumen kont Abija ak witsanmil (800.000) vanyan sòlda ki konn goumen.
4 And he stood Abijah on [the] mountain of Zemaraim which [is] in [the] hill country of Ephraim and he said listen to me O Jeroboam and all Israel.
De lame yo kontre nan mòn peyi Efrayim yo. Wa Abija kanpe sou mòn Zemarayim, li pale byen fò, li di: -Koute m' non, Jewoboram ak nou tout moun peyi Izrayèl yo!
5 ¿ Not [belong] to you [does] to know that Yahweh - [the] God of Israel he has given kingship to David over Israel for ever to him and to descendants his a covenant of salt.
Eske se konnen nou pa konnen Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, te pase yon kontra ak David, kontra ki pa kapab kase. Dapre kontra a, li mete gouvènman pèp Izrayèl la nan men l' ak nan men fanmi l' pou tout tan.
6 And he arose Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat [the] servant of Solomon [the] son of David and he rebelled on master his.
Men, Jewoboram, pitit gason Nebat la, li menm ki t'ap sèvi ak Salomon, pitit David la, revòlte kont mèt li.
7 And they gathered to him men empty sons of worthlessness and they proved themselves strong over Rehoboam [the] son of Solomon and Rehoboam he was a young man and weak of heart and not he showed himself strong before them.
Apre sa, yon bann vòryen ak yon bann vakabon al mete tèt yo ansanm ak li, yo fòse Woboram, pitit gason Salomon an, yo fè l' fè sa yo vle, paske li te jenn, li te gen tèt fèb. Li pa t' ka kenbe tèt ak yo.
8 And now - you [are] saying to show yourselves strong before [the] kingdom of Yahweh in [the] hand of [the] descendants of David and you [are] a multitude great and [are] with you calves of gold which he made for you Jeroboam to gods.
Koulye a, nou fè lide vin kraze otorite Seyè a te mete nan men fanmi David la, tou sa paske nou gen avèk nou yon gwo lame ak tout estati towo bèf an lò Jewoboram te fè pou sèvi nou bondye a.
9 ¿ Not have you driven out [the] priests of Yahweh [the] descendants of Aaron and the Levites and you have appointed for yourselves priests like [the] peoples of the lands every [one who] comes to fill own hand his with a young bull a young one of cattle and rams seven and he will become a priest to not gods.
Nou mete prèt Seyè yo, pitit Arawon yo, deyò ansanm ak moun Levi yo, lèfini nou fè tankou lòt nasyon yo, nou chwazi moun pa nou pou sèvi prèt. Nenpòt moun ki vin jwenn nou ak yon towo bèf osinon ak sèt mouton, nou fè l' prèt bondye nou yo ki pa bondye.
10 And we Yahweh [is] God our and not we have forsaken him and [we are] priests serving Yahweh [the] descendants of Aaron and the Levites [are] in the work.
Men nou menm, se Seyè a ki Bondye nou. Nou pa janm vire do ba li. Prèt k'ap sèvi devan Seyè a se fanmi Arawon yo ye. Moun ki reskonsab sèvis yo se moun Levi yo ye.
11 And [are] making smoke to Yahweh burnt offerings in the morning in the morning and in the evening in the evening and incense of perfume and [the] row of bread on the table clean and [the] lampstand of gold and lamps its to burn in the evening in the evening for [are] keeping we [the] duty of Yahweh God our and you you have forsaken him.
Chak maten, chak aswè, y'ap ofri bèt yo boule nèt pou Seyè a ansanm ak lansan. Yo mete pen ki apa pou Bondye yo sou yon tab ki nan kondisyon pou sèvis Bondye. Chak aswè, yo limen lanp ki sou gwo lanp sèt branch lan. Nou fè tou sa Seyè a ban nou lòd fè. Men, nou menm moun peyi Izrayèl, nou vire do ba li.
12 And here! [is] with us at the head God - and priests his and [the] trumpets of the alarm to sound [the] battle signal on you O people of Israel may not you do battle with Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your for not you will succeed.
Se Bondye menm ki alatèt nou avèk prèt li yo. Yo tou pare pou kònen twonpèt yo pou bay siyal mache pran nou. Se poutèt sa, nou menm moun peyi Izrayèl yo, pa fè lagè ak Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo. Paske se nou k'ap anba.
13 And Jeroboam he had caused to go round the ambush to come from behind them and they were to front of Judah and the ambush [was] from behind them.
Jewoboram fè sòlda ki te dèyè yo fè yon detou al pase dèyè lame moun peyi Jida yo. Konsa, pifò sòlda li yo te kanpe sou devan lame moun Jida yo, ak yon bon valè sòlda li yo sou dèyè yo.
14 And they turned Judah and there! [was] to them the battle before and behind and they cried out to Yahweh and the priests ([were] blowing a trumpet *Q(k)*) on trumpets.
Lè moun peyi Jida yo voye je alawonn, yo wè yo te sènen sou devan ak sou dèyè, yo rele mande Seyè a sekou. Prèt yo menm pran kònen twonpèt yo.
15 And they sounded [the] battle signal [the] man of Judah and it was when sounded [the] battle signal [the] man of Judah and God he defeated Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
Moun Jida yo bay yon sèl rèl byen fò, epi yo atake. Bondye fè Jewoboram ak tout lame moun Izrayèl yo pèdi devan Abija ak moun Jida yo.
16 And they fled [the] people of Israel from before Judah and he gave them God in hand their.
Moun Izrayèl yo pran kouri pou moun Jida yo, Bondye lage yo nan men moun Jida yo.
17 And they struck down among them Abijah and people his a striking great and they fell slain of Israel five hundred thousand man chosen.
Abija ak sòlda li yo touye yon pakèt ladan yo. Yo touye senksanmil (500.000) nan pi bon sòlda lame pèp Izrayèl la.
18 And they were humbled [the] people of Israel at the time that and they were strong [the] people of Judah for they depended on Yahweh [the] God of ancestors their.
Se konsa moun peyi Izrayèl yo soti wont nan batay la, men moun peyi Jida yo soti pi fò, paske se sou Seyè a, Bondye zansèt yo a, yo te apiye.
19 And he pursued Abijah after Jeroboam and he captured from him cities Beth-el and daughters its and Jeshanah and daughters its and (Ephrayin *Q(K)*) and daughters its.
Abija kouri dèyè Jewoboram, li pran lavil Betèl, lavil Jesana ak lavil Efwon ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki te sou kont yo.
20 And not he retained [the] strength of Jeroboam again in [the] days of Abijah and he struck him Yahweh and he died.
Jewoboram pa janm pran pye ankò pandan tout rèy Abija. Bout pou bout, Seyè a frape l', li mouri.
21 And he strengthened himself Abijah and he took for himself wives four-teen and he fathered twenty and two sons and six-teen daughters.
Abija menm te vin pi fò toujou, li te gen katòz fanm ki te fè vennde pitit gason ak sèz pitit fi pou li.
22 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Abijah and ways his and words his [are] written in [the] record of the prophet Iddo.
Tout rès istwa Abija a, tou sa li te fè ak tou sa li te di, nou jwenn yo nan liv istwa pwofèt Ido te ekri a.
