2 Kings 22
1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.
Josias te gen laj uitan lè l te vin wa a e li te renye tranteyen ane Jérusalem. Non manman li te Jedida, fi Adaja a nan Botskath.
2 He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, and walked in all the ways of David his father, and didn’t turn away to the right hand or to the left.
Li te fè sa ki bon nan zye SENYÈ a e li te mache nan tout chemen a zansèt papa li a, David, ni li pa t vire akote ni adwat, ni agoch.
3 In the eighteenth year of King Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the LORD’s house, saying,
Alò, nan di-zuityèm ane Wa Josias la, wa a te voye Schaphan, fis a Atsalia a, fis a Meschullam nan, skrib la, lakay SENYÈ a. Li te di:
4 “Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may count the money which is brought into the LORD’s house, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people.
“Monte kote Hilkija, wo prèt la, pou li kapab kontwole lajan ki antre lakay SENYÈ a, lajan ke gadyen pòtay yo te ranmase soti nan pèp la.
5 Let them deliver it into the hand of the workers who have the oversight of the LORD’s house; and let them give it to the workers who are in the LORD’s house, to repair the damage to the house,
Kite yo livre li nan men a ouvriye k ap dirije lakay SENYÈ a e kite yo bay li a ouvriye ki lakay SENYÈ a pou repare donmaj nan kay la;
6 to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house.
pou chapant yo, konstriktè yo avèk mason yo e pou achte gwo bwa avèk wòch taye pou fè reparasyon kay la.
7 However, no accounting shall be asked of them for the money delivered into their hand, for they deal faithfully.”
Sèlman, nou p ap fè kontabilite pou lajan ki livre nan men yo, paske yo aji an bòn fwa.”
8 Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the LORD’s house.” Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
Alò, Hilkija, wo prèt la, te di a Schaphan, skrib la: “Mwen te twouve liv lalwa a lakay SENYÈ a.” Konsa, Hilkija te bay liv la a Schaphan ki te li li.
9 Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, “Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hands of the workmen who have the oversight of the LORD’s house.”
Schaphan, skrib la, te rive kote wa a. Li te pote pawòl la kote wa a, e li te di: “Sèvitè ou yo te vide lajan ki te twouve nan kay la e yo te livre li nan men a ouvriye k ap dirije lakay SENYÈ a.”
10 Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has delivered a book to me.” Then Shaphan read it before the king.
Anplis, Schaphan, skrib la, te pale wa a e te di: “Hilkija, prèt la, te ban mwen yon liv.” Epi Schaphan te li li nan prezans a wa a.
11 When the king had heard the words of the book of the law, he tore his clothes.
Lè wa a te tande pawòl a liv lalwa a, li te chire rad li.
12 The king commanded Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Achbor the son of Micaiah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying,
Epi wa a te kòmande Hilkija, prèt la, Achikam fis a Schaphanb la, Acbor, fis a Michée a, a Schaphan, skrib la e a Asaja, sèvitè wa a:
13 “Go inquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found; for great is the LORD’s wrath that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book, to do according to all that which is written concerning us.”
“Ale mande a SENYÈ a pou mwen avèk pèp la ak tout Juda selon pawòl a liv sa a ki te twouve a. Paske gran se kòlè SENYÈ a ki brile kont nou, akoz zansèt papa nou yo pa t koute pawòl a liv sa a, pou fè selon tout sa ki ekri konsènan nou.”
14 So Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Achbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter); and they talked with her.
Pou sa, Hilkija, prèt la, Achikam, Acbor, Schaphan e Asaja te ale kote Hulda, pwofetès la, madanm a Schallum nan, fis a Thikva a, fis a Harhas la, ki te an chaj vètman yo. (Alò, li te rete Jérusalem nan Katye Second lan). Yo te pale avèk li.
15 She said to them, “The LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Tell the man who sent you to me,
Li te di yo: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la: ‘Pale nonm ki te voye ou kote mwen an,
16 “The LORD says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, Mwen va pote malè sou plas sa a ak sou sila ki rete ladann yo, menm tout pawòl a liv sa a ke wa Juda te di yo.
17 Because they have forsaken me and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’”
Akoz yo te abandone Mwen e te brile lansan a lòt dye yo pou yo ta kab pwovoke Mwen a lakòlè avèk tout zèv men pa yo; pou sa, gran lakòlè Mwen va brile kont plas sa a, e li p ap etenn.”’
18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him, “The LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Concerning the words which you have heard,
Men pou wa Juda a, ki te voye ou pou mande a SENYÈ a, konsa ou va pale ak li: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, ‘selon pawòl ke ou te tande yo:
19 because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,’ says the LORD.
Akoz kè ou te vin mou e ou te imilye ou devan SENYÈ a lè ou te tande sa Mwen te pale kont plas sa a ak kont sila ki rete ladann yo, pou yo ta devni yon dezolasyon ak yon malediksyon, epi akoz ou te chire rad ou e te kriye devan Mwen, anverite, Mwen te tande ou,’ deklare SENYÈ a.
20 ‘Therefore behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the evil which I will bring on this place.’”’” So they brought this message back to the king.
Pou sa, byen gade, Mwen va ranmase ou a zansèt pa ou yo e ou va ranmase rive nan tonm pa ou a anpè. Zye ou p ap wè tout mal ke Mwen va mennen sou plas sa a.” Konsa, yo te mennen pote pawòl la bay wa a.
