2 Istwa 28
1 Akaz te gen ventan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan sèzan. Men, li pa t' fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a, Bondye li a, tankou David, zansèt li a, te fè l'.
Ahaz was twentie yeere old when he began to reigne, and reigned sixteene yeere in Ierusalem, and did not vprightly in the sight of the Lord, like Dauid his father.
2 Li te pito fè tankou wa peyi Izrayèl yo. Li menm rive fè estati an kwiv pou Baal yo.
But he walked in the wayes of ye Kings of Israel, and made euen molten images for Baalim.
3 Li fè boule lansan pou yo nan Fon Benninon an, li ofri pwòp pitit gason l' yo pou yo boule yo dapre vye prensip krimenèl nasyon Seyè a te mete deyò pou fè plas pou moun Izrayèl yo.
Moreouer he burnt incense in the valley of Ben-hinnom, and burnt his sonnes with fire, after the abominations of the heathen whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
4 Li fè touye bèt, boule lansan nan tout tanp zidòl yo, sou ti mòn yo ak anba gwo pyebwa.
He sacrificed also and burnt incense in the hie places, and on hilles, and vnder euery greene tree.
5 Poutèt tout bagay sa yo, Seyè a, Bondye Akaz la, lage l' nan men wa peyi Siri a. Moun Siri yo bat li. Yo fè anpil moun peyi a prizonye, yo mennen yo lavil Damas. Konsa tou, Seyè a lage l' nan men wa peyi Izrayèl la ki bat li byen bat.
Wherefore the Lord his God deliuered him into the hand of the King of the Aramites, and they smote him, and tooke of his, many prisoners, and brought them to Damascus: and he was also deliuered into the hande of the King of Israel, which smote him with a great slaughter.
6 Se konsa, yon sèl jou Peka, pitit Remalya, touye sanvenmil (120.000) sòlda, tout vanyan gason, nan peyi Jida a, paske pèp la te vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye zansèt yo a.
For Pekah the sonne of Remaliah slewe in Iudah sixe score thousand in one day, all valiant men, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers.
7 Zikri, yon vanyan sòlda peyi Efrayim, touye Maseja, pitit wa a, Azrikam, chèf palè a, ak Elkana, chèf ki vin apre wa a.
And Zichri a mighty man of Ephraim slew Maaseiah the Kings sonne, and Azrikam the gouernour of the house, and Elkanah the second after the King.
8 Atout moun peyi Jida yo te fanmi moun peyi Izrayèl yo, moun peyi Izrayèl yo fè desanmil (200.000) moun prizonye, fanm ak timoun, yo piye peyi a, yo pran yon pakèt bagay pote ale lavil Samari.
And the children of Israel tooke prisoners of their brethren, two hudreth thousand of women, sonnes and daughters, and caried away much spoyle of them, and brought the spoyle to Samaria.
9 Nan lavil Samari te gen yon moun yo te rele Odèd ki te pwofèt Bondye. Li soti al kontre lame moun peyi Izrayèl yo ki t'ap rive lavil Samari. Li di yo: -Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, te fache sou moun peyi Jida yo. Se poutèt sa li lage yo nan men nou. Men koulye a, Bondye tande ki jan nou menm nou ansasinen yo ak raj.
But there was a Prophet of the Lordes, (whose name was Oded) and he went out before the hoste that came to Samaria, and said vnto them, Behold, because the Lord God of your fathers is wroth with Iudah, he hath deliuered them into your hand, and ye haue slaine them in a rage, that reacheth vp to heauen.
10 Koulye a menm, nou soti pou nou fè moun peyi Jida ak moun lavil Jerizalèm yo tounen esklav pou sèvi nou. Men nou menm poutèt pa nou, lè nou fè sa, èske nou pa fè sa ki mal tou devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an?
And nowe ye purpose to keepe vnder the children of Iudah and Ierusalem, as seruants and handmaides vnto you: but are not you such, that sinnes are with you before the Lord your God?
11 Koute sa m'ap di nou: Prizonye sa yo se frè ak sè nou yo ye. Kite yo tounen lakay yo, paske se sou nou Seyè a move koulye a.
Nowe therefore heare me, and deliuer the captiues againe, which ye haue taken prisoners of your brethren: for the fierce wrath of the Lord is toward you.
12 Lè sa a, kat nan gwo chèf moun peyi Efrayim yo: Azarya, pitit Jokanan, Berekya, pitit Mesilemòt, Ezekya, pitit Chaloum, ak Amasa, pitit Adlayi, leve dèyè moun ki te soti nan lagè yo.
Wherefore certaine of the chiefe of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the sonne of Iehohanan, Berechiah the sonne of Meshillemoth, and Iehizkiah the sonne of Shallum, and Amasa the sonne of Hadlai, stood vp against them that came from the warre,
13 Yo di yo: -Pa mennen prizonye sa yo isit la! Si nou fè sa n'ap antò devan Seyè a. Nou deja fè kont peche nou konsa, Seyè a tou move sou pèp Izrayèl la, pou n'ap vin mete ankò sou sa nou fè ki mal ak sou peche nou yo!
And said vnto them, Bring not in the captiues hither: for this shalbe a sinne vpon vs against the Lord: ye entende to adde more to our sinnes and to our trespasse, though our trespasse be great, and the fierce wrath of God is against Israel.
14 Se konsa sòlda yo renmèt prizonye yo ak tou sa yo te pran bay chèf yo ak tout pèp la.
So the armie left the captiues and the spoyle before the princes and all the Congregation.
15 Lè sa a, yo chwazi kat menm mesye sa yo pou yo reskonsab prizonye yo. Yo pran rad nan bagay sòlda yo te piye yo, yo mete sou moun ki te toutouni yo, yo biye yo, mete sapat nan pye yo, yo ba yo manje, yo ba yo bwè. Yo mete renmèd sou tout kote yo te blese. Yo fè tou sa ki te twò fèb yo moute bourik, yo mennen tout prizonye yo tounen lavil Jeriko, lavil Palmis yo, yo renmèt yo bay fanmi yo. Lèfini, yo tounen tounen yo lavil Samari.
And the men that were named by name, rose vp and tooke the prisoners, and with the spoyle clothed all that were naked among them, and arayed them, and shod them, and gaue them meate, and gaue them drinke, and anoynted them, and caryed all that were feeble of them vpon asses, and brought them to Iericho the citie of Palme trees to their brethren: so they returned to Samaria.
16 Lè sa a, wa Akaz voye mande wa peyi Lasiri a sekou,
At that time did King Ahaz sende vnto the Kings of Asshur, to helpe him.
17 paske moun peyi Edon yo te fè yon pase nan peyi a ankò. Yo bat lame peyi Jida a, yo fè anpil moun prizonye.
(For the Edomites came moreouer, and slew of Iudah, and caryed away captiues.
18 Moun Filisti yo, bò pa yo menm, t'ap piye lavil peyi Jida yo ki te nan pye mòn yo ak nan zòn Negèv la. Yo pran pou yo lavil sa yo: Bètchemès, Ajalon, Gedewòt, Soko, Timna ak Gimzo ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki te sou zòd lavil sa yo. Yo rete ladan yo.
The Philistims also inuaded the cities in the low countrey, and toward the South of Iudah, and tooke Bethshemesh, and Aialon, and Gederoth and Shocho, with the villages thereof, and Timnah, with her villages, and Gimzo, with her villages, and they dwelt there.
19 Seyè a te voye tout malè sa yo sou peyi Jida a poutèt Akaz, wa peyi Jida a, ki te pouse pèp la neglije Bondye yo a, epi ki poutèt pa l' te vire do bay Bondye nèt.
For the Lord had humbled Iudah, because of Ahaz King of Israel: for he had brought vengeance vpon Iudah, and had grieuously transgressed against the Lord)
20 Men Tiglat Pilesè, wa peyi Lasiri a, vin atake wa Akaz pito. Pase pou l' ede l', li kraze l' pi mal.
And Tilgath Pilneeser king of Asshur came vnto him, who troubled him and did not strengthen him.
21 Se konsa, Akaz pran dènye bagay ki gen valè nan kay Seyè a, nan palè wa a ak lakay chèf yo, li fè wa peyi Lasiri a kado. Men, sa pa t' sèvi l' anyen.
For Ahaz tooke a portion out of the house of the Lord and out of the Kings house and of the Princes, and gaue vnto the king of Asshur: yet it helped him not.
22 Pandan tout tan yo t'ap kraze l' konsa a, nonm yo bay pou wa Akaz la t'ap donnen pi mal nan pa sèvi Seyè a.
And in ye time of his tribulation did he yet trespasse more against ye Lord, (this is King Ahaz)
23 Li t'ap ofri bèt pou yo touye pou bondye moun lavil Damas yo ki te bat li. Li t'ap di nan kè l': Bondye wa peyi Siri yo te ede yo. Si mwen fè sèvis pou yo, y'a ede m' tou. Men se sèvis bondye sa yo menm ki lakòz malè rive ni li ni pèp Izrayèl la.
For he sacrificed vnto the gods of Damascus, which plagued him, and he sayd, Because the gods of the Kings of Aram helped them, I wil sacrifice vnto them, and they will helpe me: yet they were his ruine, and of all Israel.
24 Akaz pran tout veso ki te nan Tanp Bondye a, li kraze yo an miyèt moso. Li kondannen pòt Tanp Seyè a. Li fè fè lòt lotèl pou lòt bondye yo toupatou nan lavil Jerizalèm.
And Ahaz gathered the vessels of ye house of God, and brake the vessels of the house of God, and shut vp the doores of the house of the Lord, and made him altars in euery corner of Ierusalem.
25 Li bati tanp nan tout lavil ak ti bouk nan peyi Jida pou boule lansan pou lòt bondye yo. Se konsa li fè Seyè a, Bondye zansèt li yo, fache anpil sou li.
And in euery citie of Iudah hee made hie places, to burne incense vnto other gods, and prouoked to anger the Lord God of his fathers.
26 Tout rès istwa Akaz la ak tou sa li te fè depi premye jou li te moute wa a rive jouk dènye jou a, n'a jwenn tou sa ekri nan Liv Istwa wa peyi Jida ak wa peyi Izrayèl yo.
Concerning the rest of his actes, and all his wayes first and last, beholde, they are written in the booke of the Kings of Iudah, and Israel.
27 Lè li mouri, yo antere l' lavil Jerizalèm, men yo pa t' mete l' nan tonm wa Izrayèl yo. Se Ezekyas, pitit li, ki moute wa nan plas li.
And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the citie of Ierusalem, but brought him not vnto the sepulchres of the Kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his sonne reigned in his stead.
