< 2 Istwa 26 >

1 Tout pèp peyi Jida a pran Ozyas, pitit gason Amasya a, yo fè l' wa nan plas papa l'. Ozyas te gen sèzan lè sa a.
And all the people of Judah took 'Uzziyahu, who was then sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.
2 Se li menm ki reprann lavil Elat, li fè l' tounen anba otorite wa peyi Jida a apre lanmò papa l'.
He it was that built Eloth, and brought it back to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.
3 Ozyas te gen sèzan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan senkanndezan. Manman l' te rele Jekolya. Se te moun lavil Jerizalèm.
Sixteen years old was 'Uzziyahu when he became king, and fifty and two years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yecholyah of Jerusalem.
4 Ozyas te fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a menm jan ak Amasya, papa l', te fè l'.
And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father Amazyahu had done.
5 Pandan toutan Zakari te la pou moutre l' jan pou l' gen krentif Bondye a li t'ap sèvi Seyè a san mank. Pandan tout tan li t'ap sèvi Seyè a, Bondye te fè zafè l' mache byen.
And he was [inclined] to seek God in the days of Zecharyahu, who had understanding in the visions of God; and during the time that he sought the Lord, God caused him to prosper.
6 Ozyas leve al goumen ak moun Filisti yo. Li kraze miray ranpa lavil Gat, lavil Jabne ak lavil Asdòd. Li bati lòt lavil ak miray ranpa nan zòn Asdòd ak nan mitan peyi Filisti a.
And he went forth and made war against the Philistines, and he broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in [the country of] Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
7 Bondye ede l' goumen kont moun Filisti yo, kont moun Arabi ki t'ap viv lavil Goubaal yo, ak kont moun Mawon yo.
And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur-ba'al, and the Me'unim.
8 Moun Amon yo te peye lajan taks bay Ozyas. Yo t'ap nonmen non l' jouk sou fwontyè peyi Lejip, paske li te vin gen anpil pouvwa.
And the 'Ammonites gave presents to 'Uzziyahu: and his name extended even to the entrance of Egypt; for he became exceedingly strong.
9 Ozyas ranfòse defans lavil Jerizalèm. Li bati gwo fò tou won bò Pòtay Kwen an, bò Pòtay Fon an ak nan yon kwen miray la.
And 'Uzziyahu built towers in Jerusalem, above the corner-gate, and above the valley-gate, and at the angle, and made them strong.
10 Li bati gwo fò tou won nan dezè a, li fouye gwo basen pou kenbe dlo paske li te gen anpil mouton ni nan plenn lan ni sou platon yo. Li te gen moun ap travay pou li nan jaden li yo, ak moun pou okipe jaden rezen l' yo nan mòn, paske li te renmen travay latè.
He built also towers in the desert, and hewed out many wells; for he had much cattle, both in the lowlands and in the plain; [also] husbandmen, and vintners in the mountains, and in Carmel; for he loved husbandry.
11 Ozyas te gen yon gwo lame toujou pare pou fè lagè. Lame a te separe an gwoup, dapre jan yo te enskri nan rejis Jeiyèl, sekretè wa a, ak Masyas, grefye a, te kenbe sou kontwòl Ananya, yonn nan gwo chèf wa a.
Moreover 'Uzziyah had an army of fighting men, that went out to the host by bands, according to the number of those mustered of them through the hand of Je'iel the scribe and Ma'asseyahu the overseer, under the supervision of Chananyahu, one of the king's captains.
12 Te gen demil sisan (2.600) chèf fanmi alatèt vanyan sòlda sa yo.
The whole number of the chiefs of the family divisions of the mighty men of valor was two thousand and six hundred.
13 Sou zòd yo te gen yon lame ak twasansètmil senksan (307.500) sòlda toujou pare pou lagè. Yo te grannèg anpil, yo te toujou pare pou al goumen ak lènmi wa yo.
And under their supervision was an efficient army, [of] three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
14 Ozyas bay tout moun nan lame a plak pwotèj, frenn, kas pou tèt yo, rad an plak fè, banza ak flèch, ak wòch pou gwo fistibal.
And 'Uzziyahu prepared for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, and stones for slinging.
15 Nan lavil Jerizalèm, li te gen yon enjenyè ki t'ap fè tout kalite machin pou voye flèch ak gwo wòch. Li fè mete machin sa yo nan fò won yo ak nan kwen miray ranpa yo. Yo t'ap nonmen non Ozyas byen lwen, paske Bondye te sitèlman ede l' li te vin gen anpil pouvwa.
And he made in Jerusalem artificial contrivances, contrived by a skilful man, to be [stationed] on the towers and upon the ramparts, to shoot off arrows and great stones. And his name extended ever so far abroad; for he was marvelously assisted, till he became strong.
16 Men, lè li fin chita pouvwa l' byen chita, lògèy vire tèt li, sa lakòz pye l' chape. Li fè bagay Seyè a, Bondye li a, pa t' ba li dwa fè. Yon jou li antre nan Tanp Seyè a pou boule lansan sou lotèl lansan an.
But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction; and he became unfaithful against the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the Lord to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
17 Azarya, prèt la, antre dèyè l' ak katreven lòt prèt Seyè a, tout vanyan gason.
And there went in after him 'Azaryahu the priest, and with him were priests of the Lord, valiant men, [to the number of] eighty;
18 Yo vin kanpe devan wa a, yo di l': -Ozyas, ou pa gen dwa boule lansan pou Seyè a. Se prèt yo ase, moun fanmi Arawon yo, yo mete apa pou fè sa. Wete kò ou kote yo mete apa nèt pou Seyè a. Paske sa w'ap fè a pa bon devan Bondye. Bondye p'ap kontan avè ou poutèt sa.
And they stood forward against king 'Uzziyahu, and they said unto him, It is not for thee, O 'Uzziyahu, to burn incense unto the Lord, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; and it will not be for thy honor from the Lord God.
19 Ozyas te kanpe ak lansanswa a nan men l' pou l' te ofri lansan an. Li move sou prèt yo. Lamenm, nan mitan Tanp Seyè a, toupre lansan an, devan tout prèt yo, yon move maladi po parèt sou fwon li.
But 'Uzziyahu became wroth, and in his hand was a censer to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of the Lord, above the altar of the incense.
20 Lè granprèt la, Azarya, ak lòt prèt yo gade l', yo wè maladi a parèt sou fwon li. Yo mete l' deyò. Li menm, li prese soti paske se Seyè a menm ki te pini l'.
And when 'Azaryahu the chief priest, with all the priests, turned about toward him, behold, he was leprous on his forehead, and they hurried him away from there: yea, he also made haste to go out, because the Lord had afflicted him.
21 Wa Ozyas rete ak maladi po a sou li jouk li mouri. Li te rete nan yon ti kay apa pou kont li, jan yo fè l' pou moun ki gen maladi sa a. Yo enpoze l' mete pye l' nan kay Seyè a. Se Jotam, pitit gason l' lan, ki te reskonsab tout bagay nan palè a. Se li menm tou ki te gouvènen pèp la nan peyi a.
And king 'Uzziyahu was a leper until the day of his death, and dwelt in the leper-house, as a leper; for he was excluded from the house of the Lord: and Jotham his son was over the king's house, [and] judged the people of the land.
22 Pwofèt Izayi, pitit Amòz la, te ekri tout rès istwa Ozyas la, depi premye jou li te moute wa a rive jouk dènye jou a.
And the rest of the acts of 'Uzziyahu, the first and the last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amos write.
23 Lè Ozyas mouri, yo antere l' apa nan simityè wa yo. Poutèt vye maladi po li a, yo pa t' mete l' nan tonm wa yo. Se Jotam, pitit li a, ki moute wa nan plas li.
And 'Uzziyahu slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial-field which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his stead.
