2 Istwa 33
1 Manase te gen douzan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan senkannsenkan.
Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
2 Li fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a, dapre vye prensip krimenèl lòt nasyon Seyè a te mete deyò pou fè plas pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord destroyed from before the face of the children of Israel.
3 Li rebati tanp bondye lòt nasyon Ezekyas, papa l', te fè kraze yo. Li bati lotèl pou Baal, li fè yon estati Achera. Lèfini, li adore dènye zetwal ki nan syèl la, li fè sèvis pou yo.
And he returned and built the high places, which his father Ezekias had pulled down, and set up images to Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
4 Li menm rive bati lotèl pou zidòl nan Tanp Seyè a menm, kote Seyè a te di se la l'ap rete nan lavil Jerizalèm pou toutan.
And he built altars in the house of the Lord, concerning which the Lord said, In Jerusalem shall be my name for ever.
5 Li fè bati lotèl nan de lakou tanp Seyè a pou tout zetwal ki nan syèl la.
And he built altars to all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
6 Li ofri pitit gason l' pou yo boule sou lotèl zidòl yo nan Fon Inon an. Li lage kò l' nan li nwaj nan syèl la ak nan fè maji pou konnen sa ki gen pou rive. Li ankouraje divinò yo ak moun ki konn rele mò pou pale ak yo. Li donnen nan fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a pou l' te fè Seyè a move jouk li pa kapab ankò.
He also passed his children through the fire in the valley of Benennom; and he divined, and used auspices, and sorceries, and appointed those who had divining spirits, and enchanters, and wrought abundant wickedness before the Lord, to provoke him.
7 Li fè fè yon estati zidòl mete nan Tanp Seyè a, atout Seyè a te pale ak David ansanm ak Salomon, pitit li. Li te pale ak yo sou Tanp lan, li te di yo se isit lavil Jerizalèm, nan Tanp kote mwen te chwazi nan tout peyi douz branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la, pou yo fè sèvis pou mwen.
And he set the graven [image], the molten [statue], the idol which he made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name for ever;
8 Depi moun pèp Izrayèl yo viv jan mwen mande yo viv la, si yo fè tou sa ki nan lalwa Moyiz, sèvitè m' lan, te ba yo a, mwen p'ap mete yo deyò nan peyi mwen te vle bay zansèt yo a.
and I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I gave to their fathers, if only they will take heed to do all things which I have commanded them, according to all the law and the ordinances and the judgements [given] by the hand of Moses.
9 Men, Manase te lakòz pèp Jida a ak moun lavil Jerizalèm yo pèdi tèt yo, yo fè pi mal pase nasyon Seyè a te mete deyò nan peyi a pou fè plas pou yo.
So Manasses led astray Juda and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to do evil beyond all the nations which the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.
10 Seyè a te pale ak Manase ansanm ak pèp li a, men yo derefize koute l'.
And the Lord spoke to Manasses, and to his people: but they listened not.
11 Lè sa a, Seyè a voye chèf lame wa peyi Lasiri a vin atake yo. Yo mete men sou Manase, yo pase kwòk nan machwè li, yo mare l' ak de gwo chenn fèt an kwiv, yo mennen l' lavil Babilòn.
And the Lord brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, and they took Manasses in bonds, and bound him in fetters, and brought him to Babylon.
12 Manase te nan gwo lafliksyon, li rele Seyè a, Bondye li a, li rekonèt tout fòt li yo devan Seyè a, Bondye zansèt li yo.
And when he was afflicted, he sought the face of the Lord his God, and was greatly humbled before the face of the God of his fathers;
13 Li lapriyè Bondye, Bondye tande lapriyè l' la, li ba li sa l' te mande a. Li fè l' tounen lavil Jerizalèm pou li al pran plas li ankò. Se konsa Manase vin konprann se Seyè a ki Bondye vre.
and he prayed to him: and he listened to him, and listened to his cry, and brought him back to Jerusalem to his kingdom: and Manasses knew that the Lord he is God.
14 Apre sa Manase bati yon miray byen wo sou deyò lavil David la, sou bò solèy kouche, bò sous Giyon an. Miray la pran depi nan ravin lan, li pase bò Pòtay Pwason yo, li fè wonn Ofèl la. Manase mete yon kòmandan nan tout lavil peyi Jida yo ki gen gwo ranpa.
And afterward he built a wall without the city of David, from the southwest southward in the valleys and at the entrance through the fish-gate, as men go out by the gate round about, even as far as Opel: and he raised it much, and set captains of the host in all the fortified cities in Juda.
15 Li wete tout estati zidòl lòt nasyon yo ak gwo estati ki te nan Tanp lan. Li kraze tout lotèl yo te bati sou mòn kote Tanp Seyè a te ye a ak nan lavil Jerizalèm. Li pran tout bagay sa yo, li voye yo jete an deyò lavil la.
And he removed the strange gods, and the graven [image] out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars which he had built in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and without the city.
16 Li fè repare lotèl Seyè a, li fè ofrann pou mande Bondye padon ak pou di l' mèsi. Li mande pou tout moun nan peyi Jida a sèvi Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
And he repaired the altar of the Lord, and offered upon it a sacrifice of peace-offering and thank-offering, and he told Juda to serve the Lord God of Israel.
17 Pèp la te toujou ap ofri bèt pou yo touye lòt kote, men se te toujou pou Seyè a, Bondye yo a, ase.
Nevertheless the people still sacrificed on the high places, only to the Lord their God.
18 Tout rès istwa Manase a, lapriyè li te fè nan pye Bondye li a, mesaj pwofèt yo te ba li nan non Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, tou sa ekri nan Liv Istwa wa pèp Izrayèl yo.
And the rest of the acts of Manasses, and his prayer to God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the God of Israel,
19 Lapriyè wa a te fè a, repons Bondye te ba li, tout peche l' yo, jan li te vire do bay Bondye, tout kote li te bati pou zidòl yo, estati Achera ak estati lòt zidòl li te fè fè pou l' te ka sèvi anvan li te rekonèt peche li yo, nou jwenn tou sa ekri nan Liv Istwa pwofèt Ozayi a.
behold, [they are] in the account of his prayer; and [God] listened to him. And all his sins, and his backslidings, and the spots on which he built the high places, and set there groves and graven images, before he repented, behold, they are written in the books of the seers.
20 Lè Manase mouri, yo antere l' nan jaden palè a. Se Amon, pitit gason l' lan, ki moute wa nan plas li.
And Manasses slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the garden of his house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
21 Amon te gen venndezan lè li moute wa peyi Jida a. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan dezan.
Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
22 Tankou Manase, papa l', li fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a. Li ofri bèt pou yo touye, li fè sèvis pou tout zidòl papa l' te fè fè yo.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his father Manasses did: and Amon sacrificed to all the idols which his father Manasses had made, and served them.
23 Men, li pa t' rekonèt peche l' yo devan Seyè a, tankou Manase, papa l', te fè l' la. Li menm rive fè pi mal pase papa l' toujou.
And he was not humbled before the Lord as his father Manasses was humbled; for his son Amon abounded in transgression.
24 Chèf ki t'ap sèvi avèk Amon yo fè konplo, yo touye l' anndan palè a.
And his servants conspired against him, and killed him in his house.
25 Moun peyi Jida yo touye mesye ki te fè konplo pou touye Amon yo. Yo mete Jozyas, pitit gason Amon an, wa nan plas li.
And the people of the land killed the men who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josias his son king in his stead.
