2 Kings 21
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Hephzibah.
Manase te gen douzan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan senkannsenkan. Manman l' te rele Efziba.
2 He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, like the disgusting things of the nations whom Yahweh had driven out before the people of Israel.
Li fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a, dapre vye prensip krimenèl lòt nasyon Seyè a te mete deyò pou fè plas pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
3 For he rebuilt the high places that Hezekiah his father had destroyed, and he built altars for Baal, made an Asherah pole, as Ahab king of Israel had done, and he bowed down to all the stars of heaven and worshiped them.
Li rebati tanp bondye lòt nasyon Ezekyas, papa l', te fè kraze. Li bati lotèl pou Baal, li fè fè yon estati Achera, tankou sa Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la, te fè fè a. Lèfini, li adore dènye zetwal ki nan syèl la, li fè sèvis pou yo.
4 Manasseh built altars in the house of Yahweh, although Yahweh had commanded, “It is in Jerusalem that my name will be forever.”
Li menm rive bati lotèl pou zidòl anndan Tanp Seyè a, kote Seyè a te di se la l'ap rete lavil Jerizalèm.
5 He built altars for all the stars of heaven in the two courtyards of the house of Yahweh.
Li fè bati lotèl nan de lakou tanp lan pou tout zetwal ki nan syèl la.
6 He caused his son to pass through the fire, he performed sorcery and divination and consulted with those who talked with the dead and with those who talked with spirits. He did much evil in the sight of Yahweh, provoking him to anger.
Li bay pitit gason l' pou yo boule sou lotèl pou zidòl yo. Li lage kò l' nan li nwaj nan syèl la ak nan fè maji pou konnen sa ki gen pou rive, li ankouraje divinò yo ak moun ki konn rele mò pou pale ak yo. Li donnen nan fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a pou l' te fè l' move jouk li pa kapab ankò.
7 The carved figure of Asherah that he had made, he placed it in the house of Yahweh. It was about this house that Yahweh had spoken to David and Solomon his son; he had said: “It is in this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel, that I will put my name forever.
Li te fè yon estati Achera, zidòl fanm lan, li mete l' nan Tanp lan, atout Seyè a te pale ak David ansanm ak Salomon sou Tanp lan. Li te di yo: Se isit lavil Jerizalèm, nan Tanp kote mwen te chwazi nan tout peyi douz branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la, pou yo fè sèvis pou mwen.
8 I will not cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land that I gave to their ancestors, if they will only be careful to obey all that I have commanded them, and to follow all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.”
Si moun pèp Izrayèl yo viv jan mwen mande yo viv la, si yo fè tou sa ki nan lalwa Moyiz, sèvitè m' lan, te ba yo a, mwen p'ap mete yo deyò nan peyi mwen te bay zansèt yo a.
9 But the people did not listen, and Manasseh led them to do evil even more than the nations that Yahweh had destroyed before the people of Israel.
Men moun peyi Jida yo pa koute Seyè a, Manase pran tèt yo, yo fè pi mal pase nasyon Seyè a te mete deyò nan peyi a pou fè plas pou yo.
10 So Yahweh spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,
Lè sa a, Seyè a voye sèvitè l' yo, pwofèt yo, pou di yo:
11 “Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these disgusting things, and has acted wickedly more than all that the Amorites who were before him did, and has also made Judah sin with his idols,
—Wa Manase te fè tout bagay degoutan sa yo. Li te fè pi mal pase moun Amori yo ki te la nan peyi a anvan yo. Avèk tout vye zidòl li yo, li fè pèp Jida a tonbe nan fè sa ki mal.
12 therefore Yahweh, the God of Israel, says this: Look, I am about to bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah that whoever hears of it, both his ears will tingle.
Se poutèt sa, men sa mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, mwen di: Mwen pral voye yon sèl malè sou lavil Jerizalèm ak sou peyi Jida a. Lè moun va pran nouvèl la, y'ap rete gaga.
13 I will stretch over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria, and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab; I will wipe Jerusalem clean, as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.
M'ap peni lavil Jerizalèm menm jan mwen te peni lavil Samari ak fanmi wa Akaz la. Mwen pral netwaye lavil Jerizalèm tankou yo netwaye yon asyèt lèfini yo vire l' bouch anba.
14 I will throw off the remnant of my inheritance and give them into the hand of their enemies. They will become victims and plunder for all their enemies,
M'ap vire do bay rès moun ki va chape yo, m'ap lage yo nan men lènmi yo ki pral piye yo, ki pral pran peyi a nan men yo.
15 because they have done what is evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their ancestors came out of Egypt, to this day.”
M'ap fè pèp mwen an sa paske yo fè sa ki mal devan m', yo fè m' fache anpil depi jou zansèt yo te soti kite peyi Lejip jouk jounen jòdi a.
16 Moreover, Manasseh shed much innocent blood, until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another with death. This was in addition to the sin by which he made Judah to sin, when they did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh.
Manase pa sèlman lakòz pèp Jida a fè sa li pa t' dwe fè avèk tou sa li menm li t'ap fè ki mal nan je Seyè a, li fè pi rèd toujou. Li sitèlman touye moun inonsan, tout lari lavil Jerizalèm te plen san.
17 As for the other matters concerning Manasseh, all that he did, and the sin that he committed, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
Tout rès istwa Manase a, tou sa li te fè ak tout move zak li te fè yo, n'a jwenn tou sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo.
18 Manasseh slept with his ancestors and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza. Amon his son became king in his place.
Lè Manase mouri, yo antere l' nan jaden palè a, jaden Ouza a. Se Amon, pitit gason l' lan, ki moute wa nan plas li.
19 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Meshullemeth; she was the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
Amon te gen venndezan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan dezan. Manman l' te rele Mechoulemèt. Se te pitit fi Awouz, yon moun lavil Jotba.
20 He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as Manasseh his father had done.
Tankou Manase, papa l', li fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a.
21 Amon followed in all the way that his father had walked in and worshiped the idols that his father worshiped, and bowed down to them.
Li mache pye pou pye dèyè Manase nan tout bagay. Li sèvi zidòl papa l' te sèvi yo, li adore yo.
22 He abandoned Yahweh, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of Yahweh.
Li vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye zansèt li yo, li pa mache jan Seyè a vle l' la.
23 The servants of Amon conspired against him and put the king to death in his own house.
Chèf ki t'ap sèvi avèk Amon yo fè konplo, yo touye l' anndan palè a.
24 But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made Josiah his son king in his place.
Moun pèp Jida yo touye mesye ki te fè konplo pou touye Amon yo, yo mete Jozyas, pitit gason l' lan, wa nan plas li.
25 As for the other matters concerning Amon that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
Tout rès istwa Amon an, tou sa li te fè, n'a jwenn tou sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo.
26 The people buried him in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and Josiah his son became king in his place.
Lè Amon mouri, yo antere l' nan kavo fanmi an, nan jaden Ouza a. Lèfini, se Jozyas, pitit gason l' lan, ki moute wa nan plas li.
