1 Wa 16

1 Seyè a pale ak Jeou, pitit gason Anani. Li ba li mesaj sa a pou Bacha. Li di l' konsa:

Then the word of the Lord came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasa, saying:

2 -Bacha pa t' anyen menm. Men, mwen mete l' chèf sou pèp mwen an, pèp Izrayèl la. Koulye a menm, li fè tankou Jewoboram, lèfini li lakòz pèp la fè sa ki mal tou. Yo fè m' fache ak peche yo fè yo.

Forasmuch as I have exalted thee out of the dust, and made thee prince over my people Israel, and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins:

3 Se konsa mwen pral disparèt Bacha ansanm ak tout fanmi li, tankou m' te fè fanmi Jewoboram lan.

Behold, I will cut down the posterity of Baasa, and the posterity of his house, and I will make thy house as the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat.

4 Chen pral manje kadav moun nan fanmi li ki va mouri nan lavil la. Malfini karanklou va manje kadav sa ki va mouri andeyò yo.

Him that dieth of Baasa in the city, the dogs shall eat: and him that dieth of his in the country, the fowls of the air shall devour.

5 Tout lòt istwa sou sa Bacha te fè yo, sou jan li te yon vanyan gason, n'a jwenn yo ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.

But the rest of the acts of Baasa and all that he did, and his battles, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

6 Lè Bacha mouri, yo antere l' lavil Tiza. Se Ela, pitit gason l', ki moute wa nan plas li.

So Baasa slept with his fathers, and was buried in Thersa: and Ela his son reigned in his stead.

7 Seyè a te bay pwofèt Jeou, pitit gason Anani an, mesaj sa a pou Bacha ak fanmi li poutèt peche Bacha te fè kont Seyè a. Li te fè Seyè a fache sou li non sèlman paske li te fè sa ki mal tankou moun fanmi Jewoboram yo, men tou paske li te touye tout moun nan fanmi Jewoboram lan.

And when the word of the Lord came in the hand of Jehu the son of Hanani the prophet, against Baasa, and against his house, and against all the evil that he had done before the Lord, to provoke him to anger by the works of his hands, to become as the house of Jeroboam: for this cause he slew him, that is to say, Jehu the son of Hanani, the prophet.

8 Wa Asa t'ap mache sou vennsizan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Ela, pitit gason Bacha, moute wa peyi Izrayèl la. Li gouvènen pandan dezan lavil Tiza.

In the six and twentieth year of Asa king of Juda, Ela the son of Baasa reigned over Israel in Thersa two years.

9 Zimri, yonn nan chèf li yo ki te reskonsab mwatye cha lagè wa a, moute yon konplo kont wa a. Yon jou, Ela te lavil Tiza, li t'ap bwè gwòg lakay Atza ki te reskonsab palè wa a.

And his servant Zambri, who was captain of half the horsemen, rebelled against him: now Ela was drinking in Thersa, and drunk in the house of Arsa the governor of Thersa.

10 Zimri antre nan kay la, li touye wa Ela, li pran plas li sou fotèy la. Tou sa pase nan vennsetyèm lanne rèy Asa, wa peyi Jida a.

And Zambri rushing in, struck him and slew him in the seven and twentieth year of Asa king of Juda, and he reigned in his stead.

11 Moute Zimri moute wa, li touye dènye moun nan fanmi Bacha a. Li touye tout gason ki te fanmi l' osinon zanmi l'.

And when he was king and sat upon his throne, he slew all the house of Baasa, and he left not one thereof to piss against a wall, and all his kinsfolks and friends.

12 Se konsa Zimri te touye tout fanmi Bacha a, jan Seyè a te mete pawòl la nan bouch pwofèt Jeou a.

And Zambri destroyed all the house of Baasa, according to the word of the Lord, that he had spoken to Baasa in the hand of Jehu the prophet,

13 Paske Bacha ak Ela, pitit li a, te fè Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, fache ak vye zidòl yo. Yo te peche kont Seyè a, yo te lakòz pèp la fè sa ki mal tou.

For all the sins of Baasa, and the sins of Ela his son, who sinned, and made Israel to sin, provoking the Lord the God of Israel with their vanities.

14 Tout lòt bagay Ela te fè yo, n'a jwenn yo ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl la.

But the rest of the acts of Ela, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

15 Wa Asa t'ap mache sou vennsetan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida a, lè Zimri pran pouvwa a pou sèt grenn jou lavil Tiza nan peyi Izrayèl. Lè sa a, lame pèp Izrayèl la t'ap sènen lavil Gibeton nan peyi Filisti.

In the seven and twentieth year of Asa king of Juda, Zambri reigned seven days in Thersa: now the army was besieging Gebbethon a city of the Philistines.

16 Lè sòlda yo pran nouvèl Zimri te fè konplo sou wa a, li te menm touye l', lapoula yo nonmen Omri, kòmandan lame a, wa peyi Izrayèl.

And when they heard that Zambri had rebelled, and slain the king, all Israel made Amri their king, who was general over Israel in the camp that day.

17 Omri kite lavil Gibeton ansanm ak tout lame a, li moute, l' al sènen lavil Tiza.

And Amri went up, and all Israel with him from Gebbethon, and they besieged Thersa.

18 Lò Zimri wè lavil la tapral tonbe nan men Omri, li antre nan ti fò ki sou tèt palè wa a, li mete dife nan palè a, epi li mouri nan dife a.

And Zambri seeing that the city was about to be taken, went into the palace and burnt himself with the king’s house: and he died

19 Sa te pase konsa paske Zimri te fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a. Tankou Jewoboram, li pa t' fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a, li te lakòz pèp Izrayèl la fè peche tou.

In his sins, which he had sinned, doing evil before the Lord, and walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin, wherewith he made Israel to sin.

20 Tout lòt bagay Zimri te fè ak istwa konplo li te moute a, n'a jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.

But the rest of the acts of Zambri, and of his conspiracy and tyranny, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

21 Lè sa a, moun peyi Izrayèl yo te fè de kan: Mwatye ladan yo te vle fè Tibni, pitit gason Genat la, wa. Mwatye te pou Omri.

Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts: one half of the people followed Thebni the son of Gineth, to make him king: and one half followed Amri.

22 Patizan Omri yo kraze patizan Tibni, pitit gason Genat la. Tibni mouri, Omri moute wa.

But the people that were with Amri, prevailed over the people that followed Thebni the son of Gineth: and Thebni died, and Amri reigned.

23 Se konsa nan tranteyenyèm lanne rèy Asa, wa peyi Jida, Omri moute wa peyi Izrayèl. Li gouvènen peyi a pandan douzan. Pandan sizan, li gouvènen nan lavil Tiza.

In the one and thirtieth year of Asa king of Juda, Amri reigned over Israel twelve years: in Thersa he reigned six years.

24 Apre sa, li achte mòn Samari a pou simil (6.000) pyès ajan nan men yon nonm yo te rele Chemè. Omri bati yon lavil sou tèt mòn lan, li rele l' Samari, dapre non Chemè, ansyen mèt tè a.

And he bought the hill of Samaria of Semer for two talents of silver: and he built upon it, and he called the city which he built Samaria, after the name of Semer the owner of the hill.

25 Omri fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a. Li fè pi mal pase moun ki te chèf anvan l' yo.

And Amri did evil in the sight of the Lord, and acted wickedly above all that were before him.

26 Li mache pye pou pye dèyè Jewoboram, pitit Nebat la: li fè sa ki mal, li lakòz pèp la fè sa ki mal tou. Se konsa yo te fè Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, fache ak vye zidòl yo.

And he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and in his sins wherewith he made Israel to sin: to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger with their vanities.

27 Tout lòt istwa sou sa Omri te fè yo, sou jan li te yon vanyan gason, n'a jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.

Now the rest of the acts of Amri, and the battles he fought, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

28 Lè Omri mouri, yo antere l' lavil Samari. Se Akab, pitit gason l' lan, ki moute wa nan plas li.

And Amri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, and Achab his son reigned in his stead.

29 Wa Asa te gen trantwitan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida a lè Akab, pitit Omri a, moute wa peyi Izrayèl. Pandan venndezan li gouvènen peyi Izrayèl nan lavil Samari.

Now Achab the son of Amri reigned over Israel in the eight and thirtieth year of Asa king of Juda. And Achab the son of Amri reigned over Israel in Samaria two and twenty years.

30 Li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a. Li fè pi mal pase tout moun ki te chèf anvan l' yo.

And Achab the son of Amri did evil in the sight of the Lord above all that were before him.

31 Non sèlman li te fè tankou Jewoboram, pitit Nebat la, men l' ale pi lwen toujou. Li marye ak Jezabèl, pitit fi Elbaal, wa peyi Sidon. Li pran sèvi Baal, l' al met ajenou devan li.

Nor was it enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat: but he also took to wife Jezabel daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians. And he went, and served Baal, and adored him.

32 Nan mitan lavil Samari, li bati yon tanp pou Baal, li mete yon lotèl ladan l'.

And he set up an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal, which he had built in Samaria,

33 Li fè yon estati pou Astate tou. Li fè pi mal pase tout lòt wa peyi Izrayèl ki te pase anvan l' yo pou fè Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, fache.

And he planted a grove: and Achab did more to provoke the Lord the God of Israel, than all the kings of Israel that were before him.

34 Se pandan rèy Akab la, yon nonm yo rele Iyèl, moun lavil Betèl, rebati lavil Jeriko. Men, pawòl Seyè a te di Jozye, pitit Noun lan, rive vre. Abiram, premye pitit Iyèl la, mouri lè yo t'ap fouye fondasyon lavil la, lèfini Segoub, dezyèm pitit gason Iyèl la, mouri lè yo t'ap moute pòtay lavil la.

In his days Hiel of Bethel built Jericho: in Abiram his firstborn he laid its foundations: and in his youngest son Segub he set up the gates thereof: according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke in the hand of Josue the son of Nun.
