2 Istwa 33
1 Manase te gen douzan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan senkannsenkan.
Manasseh 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.
He did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, after the abominations of the nations whom YHWH cast out before 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.
For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars for the Baals, and made Asheroth, and worshiped 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.
He built altars in the house of YHWH, of which YHWH said, "My name shall be in Jerusalem forever."
5 Li fè bati lotèl nan de lakou tanp Seyè a pou tout zetwal ki nan syèl la.
He built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of YHWH.
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 made his children to pass through the fire in the Valley of Ben Hinnom; and he practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and consulted mediums, and spiritists: he worked much evil in the sight of YHWH, to provoke him to anger.
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.
He set the engraved image of the idol, which he had made, in God's house, of which God said to David and to Solomon his son, "In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name forever:
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.
neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law and the statutes and the ordinances given by 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.
Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did more evil than the nations whom YHWH destroyed before the children of Israel did.
10 Seyè a te pale ak Manase ansanm ak pèp li a, men yo derefize koute l'.
YHWH spoke to Manasseh, and to his people; but they gave no heed.
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.
Therefore YHWH brought on them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains, and bound him with fetters, and carried 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.
When he was in distress, he begged YHWH his God, and humbled himself greatly before 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.
He prayed to him; and he was entreated by him, and heard his petition, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that YHWH was 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.
Now after this he built an outer wall to the City of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the Fish Gate; and he encircled Ophel with it, and raised it up to a very great height: and he put valiant captains in all the fortified cities of Judah.
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.
He took away the foreign gods, and the idol out of the house of YHWH, and all the altars that he had built in the mountain of the house of YHWH, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of 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.
He built up the altar of YHWH, and offered thereon sacrifices of peace offerings and of thanksgiving, and commanded Judah to serve YHWH, the 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 sacrificed still in the high places, but only to YHWH 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.
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of YHWH, the God of Israel, look, they are written among the acts of the kings 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.
His prayer also, and how God was entreated of him, and all his sin and his trespass, and the places in which he built high places, and set up the Asherim and the engraved images, before he humbled himself, look, they are written in the Record 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.
So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the garden of his own house. And Amon his son reigned in his place.
21 Amon te gen venndezan lè li moute wa peyi Jida a. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan dezan.
Amon was twenty-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.
He did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, as did Manasseh his father; and Amon sacrificed to all the engraved images which Manasseh his father 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.
He did not humble himself before YHWH, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but this same Amon trespassed more and more.
24 Chèf ki t'ap sèvi avèk Amon yo fè konplo, yo touye l' anndan palè a.
His servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own 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.
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
