< 2 Chronicles 16 >
1 In the thirty and sixth year of the reign of Asa, come up hath Baasha king of Israel, against Judah, and buildeth Ramah, so as not to permit any going out and coming in to Asa king of Judah.
Nan trann-sizyèm ane règn Asa a, Baasha, wa a Israël la, te vin monte kont Juda, e li te ranfòse Rama pou anpeche ni antre, ni sòti, vè Asa, wa Juda a.
2 And Asa bringeth out silver and gold from the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and of the house of the king, and sendeth unto Ben-Hadad king of Aram, who is dwelling in Damascus, saying,
Konsa, Asa te pote fè sòti ajan avèk lò soti nan trezò lakay SENYÈ a avèk lakay wa a, e li te voye yo kote Ben-Hadad, wa Syrie a, ki te rete Damas la. Li te di:
3 'A covenant [is] between me and thee, and between my father and thy father, lo, I have sent to thee silver and gold; go, break thy covenant with Baasha king of Israel, and he doth go up from off me.'
“Kite genyen yon alyans antre ou menm avèk mwen, tankou antre papa m ak papa ou. Gade byen, mwen te voye ba ou ajan avèk lò. Ale, kraze alyans ou an avèk Baasha, wa Israël la, pou li retire li sou mwen.”
4 And Ben-Hadad hearkeneth unto king Asa, and sendeth the heads of the forces that he hath unto cities of Israel, and they smite Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-Maim, and all the stores, cities of Naphtali.
Konsa, Ben-Hadad te koute wa Asa. Li te voye chèf lame li yo kont vil Israël yo, e yo te frape Ijjon, Dan, Abel-Maïm, avèk tout vil depo Nephthali yo.
5 And it cometh to pass, at Baasha's hearing, that he ceaseth from building Ramah, and letteth his work rest;
Lè Baasha te tande sa, li te sispann ranfòse Rama, e li te kite travay li.
6 and Asa the king hath taken all Judah, and they bear away the stones of Ramah, and its wood, that Baasha hath built, and he buildeth with them Geba and Mizpah.
Alò, Wa Asa te mennen tout Juda, yo te retire wòch Rama yo avèk gwo bwa ki t ap sèvi pou bati yo, e avèk yo, li te ranfòse Guéba avèk Mitspa.
7 And at that time hath Hanani the seer come in unto Asa king of Judah, and saith unto him, 'Because of thy leaning on the king of Aram, and thou hast not leaned on Jehovah thy God, therefore hath the force of the king of Aram escaped from thy hand.
Nan lè sa a, Hanani, konseye a te vin kote Asa, wa Juda a. Li te di li: “Akoz ou te depann de wa Syrie a e ou pa t depann de SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a, pou sa, lame wa Syrie a gen tan chape nan men ou.
8 Did not the Cushim and the Lubim become a very great force for multitude, for chariot, and for horsemen? and in thy leaning on Jehovah He gave them into thy hand,
Èske Etyopyen yo avèk Libyen yo pa t yon lame ki vast avèk anpil cha ak chevalye? Men akoz ou te depann de SENYÈ a, Li te livre yo nan men ou.
9 for Jehovah — His eyes go to and fro in all the earth, to show Himself strong [for] a people whose heart [is] perfect towards Him; thou hast been foolish concerning this, because — henceforth there are with thee wars.'
Paske zye a SENYÈ mache toupatou sou latè pou Li kapab bay soutyen ki fò a sila ki gen kè dedye a Li nèt yo. Nou te aji an foli nan afè sa a. Anverite, depi koulye a, nou va toujou gen gè.”
10 And Asa is angry at the seer, and giveth him to the house of torture, for [he is] in a rage with him for this; and Asa oppresseth [some] of the people at that time.
Alò, Asa te fache avèk konseye a, e li te mete li nan prizon, paske li te anraje avèk li pou bagay sa a. Epi nan menm lè a, Asa te oprime kèk moun nan pèp la.
11 And lo, the matters of Asa, the first and the last, lo, they are written on the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Alò, zèv Asa yo, soti nan premye a jis rive nan dènye a, veye byen, yo ekri nan Liv A Wa a Juda avèk Israël yo.
12 And Asa is diseased — in the thirty and ninth year of his reign — in his feet, till his disease is excessive, and also in his disease he hath not sought Jehovah, but among physicians.
Nan trant-nevyèm ane règn li a, Asa te vin malad nan pye li. Maladi a te grav, men menm nan maladi a, li pa t chache SENYÈ a, men pito doktè.
13 And Asa lieth with his fathers, and dieth in the forty and first year of his reign,
Konsa, Asa te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo lè l fin mouri nan karanteyinyèm ane règn pa li a.
14 and they bury him in [one of] his graves, that he had prepared for himself in the city of David, and they cause him to lie on a bed that [one] hath filled [with] spices, and divers kinds of mixtures, with perfumed work; and they burn for him a burning — very great.
Yo te antere li nan pwòp tonm ke li te fouye pou li menm nan lavil David la, e yo te kouche li nan plas repo ke li te plen avèk plizyè kalite epis ki te mele selon metye a yon moun ki konn fè pafen; epi yo te fè yon trè gwo dife pou li.
