2 Kings 3
1 And Jehoram son of Ahab hath reigned over Israel, in Samaria, in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigneth twelve years,
Alò Joram, fis Achab la te devni Wa sou Israël nan Samarie nan di-zuityèm ane a Josaphat, wa Juda a, e li te renye pandan douzan.
2 and doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, only not like his father, and like his mother, and he turneth aside the standing-pillar of Baal that his father made;
Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a, malgre, se pa tankou papa li avèk manman li. Paske li te retire pilye sakre a Baal ke papa li te fè a.
3 only to the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin he hath cleaved, he hath not turned aside from it.
Sepandan, li te kenbe rèd a peche Jéroboam, fis a Nebat la. Avèk sila li te fè Israël peche a. Li pa t kite yo.
4 And Mesha king of Moab was a sheep-master, and he rendered to the king of Israel a hundred thousand lambs, and a hundred thousand rams, [with] wool,
Alò, Mesha, wa Moab la te yon mèt ki fò nan pran swen mouton. Li te konn peye wa Israël la avèk lenn a san-mil jenn mouton ansanm avèk lenn san-mil belye.
5 and it cometh to pass at the death of Ahab, that the king of Moab transgresseth against the king of Israel.
Men lè Achab te vin mouri, wa Moab la te fè rebèl kont wa Israël la.
6 And king Jehoram goeth out in that day from Samaria, and inspecteth all Israel,
Konsa, wa Joram te kite Samarie nan tan sa a pou te rasanble tout Israël.
7 and goeth and sendeth unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, 'The king of Moab hath transgressed against me; dost thou go with me unto Moab for battle?' and he saith, 'I go up, as I, so thou; as my people, so thy people; as my horses, so thy horses.
Alò, li te voye kote Josaphat, wa Juda a. Li te di: “Wa Moab la te fè rebèl kont mwen. Èske ou va monte avè m pou goumen kont Moab?” Li te reponn: “M ap monte. Mwen tankou ou menm e pèp mwen an tankou pèp pa w la, cheval mwen yo tankou cheval pa ou yo.”
8 And he saith, 'Where [is] this — the way we go up?' and he saith, 'The way of the wilderness of Edom.'
Konsa, li te mande: “Nan ki chemen nou dwe monte?” Wa Joram te reponn: “Pa chemen dezè ki nan Édom an.”
9 And the king of Israel goeth, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom, and they turn round the way seven days, and there hath been no water for the camp, and for the cattle that [are] at their feet,
Konsa, wa Israël la te ale avèk wa Juda a ak wa Édom an e nan vwayaj la, yo fè yon tou mache pandan sèt jou, e pa t gen dlo pou lame a ak pou betay ki te swiv yo.
10 and the king of Israel saith, 'Alas, for Jehovah hath called for these three kings, to give them into the hand of Moab.'
Alò, wa Israël la te di: “Elas! Konsa SENYÈ a te rele twa wa sa yo pou lage yo nan men Moab.”
11 And Jehoshaphat saith, 'Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah, and we seek Jehovah by him?' And one of the servants of the king of Israel answereth and saith, 'Here [is] Elisha son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.'
Men Josaphat te di: “Èske pa gen yon pwofèt SENYÈ a isit la, pou nou kapab fè demann SENYÈ a pa li menm?” Youn nan sèvitè wa yo te reponn. Li te di: “Élisée, fis a Schaphath la, ki te konn vide dlo sou men a Élie yo isit la.”
12 And Jehoshaphat saith, 'The word of Jehovah is with him;' and go down unto him do the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom.
Josaphat te di: “Pawòl SENYÈ a avèk li.” Konsa, wa Israël la avèk Josaphat, avèk wa Édom an te desann kote li.
13 And Elisha saith unto the king of Israel, 'What — to me and to thee? go unto the prophets of thy father, and unto the prophets of thy mother;' and the king of Israel saith to him, 'Nay, for Jehovah hath called for these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.'
Alò, Élisée te di a wa Israël la: “Kisa m gen avè w? Ale kote pwofèt a papa ou avèk pwofèt a manman ou yo.” Wa Israël la te reponn: “Non, paske SENYÈ a te rele twa wa sila yo ansanm pou livre yo nan men a wa Moab la.”
14 And Elisha saith, 'Jehovah of Hosts liveth, before whom I have stood; for unless the face of Jehoshaphat king of Judah I am lifting up, I do not look unto thee, nor see thee;
Élisée te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, devan sila mwen kanpe a, si se pa ke m respekte prezans a Josaphat, wa Juda a, mwen pa t ap gade ou, ni wè ou.
15 and now, bring to me a minstrel; and it hath been, at the playing of the minstrel, that the hand of Jehovah is on him,
Men koulye a, mennen ban mwen yon mizisyen.” Epi li te vin rive ke lè mizisyen an te jwe, men SENYÈ a te vini sou Elisée.
16 and he saith, 'Thus said Jehovah, Make this valley ditches — ditches;
Li te di: “Konsa di SENYÈ a: ‘Fè vale sila a vin ranpli avèk kanal.’
17 for thus said Jehovah, Ye do not see wind, nor do ye see rain, and that valley is full of water, and ye have drunk — ye, and your cattle, and your beasts.
Paske konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Ou p ap wè van ni ou p ap wè lapli. Malgre sa, vale sila a va vin ranpli avèk dlo pou nou kab bwè; ni nou, ni bèf nou yo, ni bèt nou yo.
18 'And this hath been light in the eyes of Jehovah, and he hath given Moab into your hand,
Sa se sèlman yon tikras bagay nan zye SENYÈ a. Anplis, Li va livre Moabit yo nan men nou.
19 and ye have smitten every fenced city, and every choice city, and every good tree ye cause to fall, and all fountains of waters ye stop, and every good portion ye mar with stones.'
Konsa, nou va frape chak vil ki fòtifye e chak nan pi bèl vil yo, koupe mete atè tout bon pyebwa, bouche tout sous dlo e gate tout bon mòso tè avèk wòch yo.’”
20 And it cometh to pass in the morning, at the ascending of the [morning] -present, that lo, waters are coming in from the way of Edom, and the land is filled with the waters,
Li te vin rive nan maten vè lè pou ofri sakrifis la, ke vwala, dlo te sòti vè direksyon Édom e peyi a te vin ranpli avèk dlo.
21 and all Moab have heard that the kings have come up to fight against them, and they are called together, from every one girding on a girdle and upward, and they stand by the border.
Alò, tout Moabit yo te tande ke wa yo te monte pou goumen kont yo. Epi tout moun ki te kapab, te mete vètman pwotèj yo e sila avèk plis laj yo te resevwa lòd pou vin kanpe sou lizyè fwontyè a.
22 And they rise early in the morning, and the sun hath shone on the waters, and the Moabites see, from over-against, the waters red as blood,
Yo te leve bonè nan maten, solèy la te vin klere sou dlo a, e Moabit yo te wè dlo anfas yo a wouj tankou san.
23 and say, 'Blood this [is]; the kings have been surely destroyed, and they smite each his neighbour; and now for spoil, Moab!'
Konsa, yo te di: “Sa se san. Asireman, wa yo te goumen ansanm e youn te touye lòt. Pou sa, Moab, antre pran piyaj la!”
24 And they come in unto the camp of Israel, and the Israelites rise, and smite the Moabites, and they flee from their face; and they enter into Moab, so as to smite Moab,
Men lè yo te rive nan kan Israël la, Izrayelit yo te leve e te frape Moabit yo jiskaske yo te kouri devan yo. Epi yo te avanse nan peyi a e te fè yon gwo masak pami Moabit yo.
25 and the cities they break down, and [on] every good portion they cast each his stone, and have filled it, and every fountain of water they stop, and every good tree they cause to fall — till one had left its stones in Kir-Haraseth, and the slingers go round and smite it.
Konsa, yo te detwi vil yo, epi chak moun te jete yon wòch sou chak mòso bon tè pou te plen yo. Epi yo te bouche tout sous dlo yo e te koupe tout bon pyebwa yo, jis yo rive nan Kir-Haréseth kote se sèl wòch li yo ki rete. Men mesye fistibal yo te antoure li e te frape li.
26 And the king of Moab seeth that the battle has been too strong for him, and he taketh with him seven hundred men, drawing sword, to cleave through unto the king of Edom, and they have not been able,
Lè wa Moab la te wè ke batay la te twò mechan pou li, li te pran avèk li sèt-san mesye ki te rale nepe pou ouvri yon pasaj pou rive kote wa Édom an; men yo pa t kapab.
27 and he taketh his son, the first-born who reigneth in his stead, and causeth him to ascend — a burnt-offering on the wall, and there is great wrath against Israel, and they journey from off him, and turn back to the land.
Alò, li te pran pi gran fis li a ki te gen pou renye nan plas li, e li te ofri li kòm yon ofrann brile sou mi lan. Epi te vin gen lakòlè byen cho kont Israël, e yo te kite li pou retounen nan peyi pa yo.
