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 came the word of the Lord to Jehu the son of Chanani against Ba'sha, 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 lifted thee up out of the dust, and I set thee as prince over my people Israel; and thou hast walked in the way of Jerobo'am, and hast induced 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 sweep out after Ba'sha, and after his house; and I will render thy house like the house of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat;
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 Ba'sha in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth of his in the field shall the fowls of the heavens eat.
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.
And the rest of the acts of Ba'sha, and what he did, and his mighty deeds, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles 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.
And Ba'sha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Thirzah: and Elah his son became king 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 also by the hand of Jehu the son of Chanani, the prophet, came the word of the Lord against Ba'sha, and against his house, both for all the evil that he did in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, thus being like the house of Jerobo'am; and because he had killed him.
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 twenty and sixth year of Assa the king of Judah became Elah the son of Ba'sha king over Israel in Thirzah, [for] 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 there conspired against him his servant Zimri, captain of half the chariots, as he was in Thirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was set over the house in Thirzah.
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 Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty and seventh year of Assa the king of Judah, and became king 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 it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he slew all the house of Ba'sha: he left him not a single male, neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends.
12 Se konsa Zimri te touye tout fanmi Bacha a, jan Seyè a te mete pawòl la nan bouch pwofèt Jeou a.
Thus did Zimri exterminate all the house of Ba'sha, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken against Ba'sha by the agency 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 Ba'sha, and the sins of Elah his son, by which they had sinned, and by which they had induced Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger with their vanities.
14 Tout lòt bagay Ela te fè yo, n'a jwenn yo ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl la.
Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles 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 twenty and seventh year of Assa the king of Judah did Zimri reign seven days in Thirzah: and the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to 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 the people that were encamped heard it said, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also slain the king: all Israel made 'Omri, the captain of the army, king over Israel on that day in the camp.
17 Omri kite lavil Gibeton ansanm ak tout lame a, li moute, l' al sènen lavil Tiza.
And 'Omri went up, and all Israel with him from Gibbethon, and they besieged Thirzah.
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 it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was captured, that he went into the strong-hold of the king's house, and burnt the king's house over him with fire, 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.
For his sins which he had sinned, in doing what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to walk in the way of Jerobo'am, and in his sin which he did, to induce 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.
And the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his conspiracy that he contrived, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles 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.
At that time were the people of Israel divided into two parts: one half of the people followed Thibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and the other half followed 'Omri.
22 Patizan Omri yo kraze patizan Tibni, pitit gason Genat la. Tibni mouri, Omri moute wa.
But the people that followed 'Omri prevailed against the people that followed Thibni the son of Ginath: and Thibni [also] died, and 'Omri became king.
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 thirty and first year of Assa the king of Judah became 'Omri king over Israel, [for] twelve years; in Thirzah 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 mount Samaria, of Shemer for two talents of silver, and built on the mount, and called the name of the city which he had built, after the name of Shemer, the Lord of the mount, Samaria.
25 Omri fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a. Li fè pi mal pase moun ki te chèf anvan l' yo.
And 'Omri did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and did worse than 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 Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, and in his sin wherewith he induced Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord 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 'Omri which he did, and his mighty deeds that he displayed, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles 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 'Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria: and Achab his son became king 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.
And Achab the son of 'omri became king over Israel in the thirty and eighth year of Assa the king of Judah; and Achab the son of 'Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two 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 'Omri did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord more than all that had been 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.
And it came to pass, as if it had been too light a thing for him to walk in the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, that he took for wife Izebel the daughter of Ethba'al the king of the Zidonians, and went and served Ba'al, and worshipped him.
32 Nan mitan lavil Samari, li bati yon tanp pou Baal, li mete yon lotèl ladan l'.
And he erected an altar for Ba'al in the house of Ba'al, 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 Achab made a grove; and Achab did yet more, so as to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger, than all the kings of Israel that had been 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 did Chiel the Beth-elite build Jericho: with Abiram his first-born laid he the foundation thereof, and with Segub his youngest son set he up the gates thereof, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by means of Joshua the son of Nun.
