2 Kings 16
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham king of Judah, began to reign.
Nan di-setyèm ane a Pékach, fis a Remalia a, Achaz, fis Jotham nan, wa Juda a, te devni wa.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of Yahweh his God, as David his ancestor had done.
Achaz te gen ventan lè li te devni wa, a e li te renye sèzan nan Jérusalem. Li pa t fè sa ki bon nan zye a SENYÈ a, jan David te konn fè a.
3 Instead, he walked in the way of the kings of Israel; indeed, he made his son pass through the fire, following the detestable practices of the nations, which Yahweh had driven out before the people of Israel.
Men li te mache nan chemen wa Israël yo. Li menm te fè fis li pase nan dife, tankou abominasyon a nasyon ke SENYÈ a te chase mete deyò devan fis Israël yo.
4 He offered sacrifices and burned incense at the high places, on the hilltops, and under every green tree.
Li te fè sakrifis e li te brile lansan sou wo plas yo ak sou ti mòn anba chak pyebwa vèt yo.
5 Then Rezin, king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to attack. They besieged Ahaz, but they could not conquer him.
Alò, Retsin, wa Syrie a avèk Pékach, fis a Remalia a, wa Israël la, te monte Jérusalem pou fè lagè. Yo te fè syèj sou Achaz, men yo pa t kab venk li.
6 At that time, Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram and drove the men of Judah out of Elath. Then the Arameans came to Elath where they have lived to this day.
Nan tan sa a Retsin, wa Syrie a, te reprann Élath pou Syrie e li te netwaye retire Jwif yo nèt nan Élath. Epi Siryen yo te vini Élath e yo rete la jis rive jodi a.
7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hand of the king of Aram and from the hand of the king of Israel, who have attacked me.”
Konsa, Achaz te voye mesaje yo kote Tiglath-Piléser, wa Assyrie a. Li te di: “Mwen se sèvitè ou ak fis ou; vin delivre mwen soti nan men a wa Syrie a, avèk men a wa Israël la k ap fè soulèvman kont mwen.”
8 So Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of Yahweh and among the treasures of the king's palace and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
Achaz te pran ajan avèk lò ki te twouve lakay SENYÈ a ak nan kès lakay wa a pou te voye yon kado bay wa Assyrie a.
9 Then the king of Assyria listened to him, and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, conquered it and carried off its people as prisoners to Kir. He also killed Rezin the king of Aram.
Konsa, wa Assyrie a te koute li, epi wa Assyrie a te monte kont Damas pou te kaptire li. Li te pote pèp li a deyò an egzil nan Kir, e li te mete Retsin a lanmò.
10 King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria. At Damascus he saw an altar. He sent to Uriah the priest a model of the altar and its pattern and the design for all the workmanship needed.
Alò, Wa Achaz te ale kote Damas pou rankontre Tiglath-Piléser, wa Assyrie, e li te wè lotèl ki te Damas la. Konsa, Wa Achaz te voye bay Urie, prèt la, plan lotèl la avèk yon modèl li, selon tout mendèv pa li.
11 So Uriah the priest built an altar to be just like the plans that King Ahaz had sent from Damascus. He finished it before King Ahaz arrived back from Damascus.
Konsa, Urie, prèt la te bati yon lotèl selon tout sa ke Wa Achaz te voye soti Damas, e konsa Urie, prèt la, te fè li, avan wa Achaz te vini soti Damas.
12 When the king came from Damascus he saw the altar; the king approached the altar and made offerings on it.
Lè wa a te antre sòti Damas, wa a te wè lotèl la. Alò, wa a te pwoche lotèl la e te fè ofrann sou li.
13 He made his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his fellowship offerings on the altar.
Li te brile ofrann brile li a avèk ofrann sereyal la, li te vide ofrann bwason li an e li te flite san a ofrann lapè li yo sou lotèl la.
14 The bronze altar that was before Yahweh—he brought it from the front of the temple, from between his altar and the temple of Yahweh and put it on the north side of his altar.
Lotèl bwonz lan, ki te devan SENYÈ a, li te mennen soti devan kay la, soti nan antre lotèl pa li a, lakay Senyè a e li te mete li sou kote nò lotèl pa li a.
15 Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, saying, “On the large altar burn the morning burnt offering and the evening grain offering, and the king's burnt offering and his grain offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their grain offering and their drink offerings. Sprinkle on it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice. But the bronze altar will be for me to consult for guidance.”
Epi Wa Achaz te kòmande Urie, prèt la, e li te di: “Sou gran lotèl la, brile ofrann brile maten an ak ofrann sereyal aswè a; epi ofrann brile wa a avèk ofrann sereyal pa li a, avèk ofrann brile a tout pèp peyi a avèk ofrann sereyal pa yo ak ofrann bwason yo; epi flite sou li tout san a ofrann brile a e tout san a sakrifis la. Men lotèl bwonz lan va sèlman pou mwen pou m kab mande konsèy ladann.
16 Uriah the priest did just what King Ahaz commanded.
Pou sa, Urie, prèt la, te fè tout bagay selon sa ke Wa Achaz te kòmande a.”
17 Then King Ahaz removed the panels and the basins from the portable stands; he also took down the sea from off the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone pavement.
Alò, Wa Achaz te koupe retire arebò a baz yo e li te retire basen lave a sou yo. Li te osi desann lanmè a soti sou bèf bwonz ki te anba li yo, e li te mete li sou yon pave an wòch.
18 He removed the covered walkway for the Sabbath that they had built at the temple, along with the king's entry outside the temple of Yahweh, because of the king of Assyria.
Li te retire osi chemen machpye Saba a ke yo te bati nan kay la e antre eksteryè a wa a, li te retire li soti lakay SENYÈ a akoz wa Assyrie a.
19 As for the other matters concerning Ahaz and what he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
Alò, tout lòt zèv Achaz te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa A Juda yo?
20 Ahaz slept with his ancestors and was buried with his ancestors in the city of David. Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
Konsa, Achaz te dòmi avèk zansèt pa li yo, e li te antere avèk zansèt pa li yo nan lavil David la. Fis li, Ézéchias, te renye nan plas li.
