2 Wa 13
1 Joas, pitit wa Okozyas, t'ap mache sou venntwazan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida a lè Joakaz, pitit Jeou, moute wa nan peyi Izrayèl. Li gouvènen pandan disetan nan lavil Samari.
In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah king of Judah Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years.
2 Men, li te fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a, li te lage kò l' nan fè menm peche ak Jewoboram, pitit Nebat la, li lakòz pèp Izrayèl la peche tou. Li pa t' soti pou l' te kite vye chemen sa a.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.
3 Se konsa li fè Seyè a fache sou moun peyi Izrayèl yo. Se sa ki fè Seyè a te lage yo nan men Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a, ak nan men Bennadad, pitit li, anpil fwa.
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, all their days.
4 Lè sa a, Joakaz lapriyè nan pye Seyè a. Seyè a reponn li paske li te wè jan wa peyi Siri a t'ap toupizi moun peyi Izrayèl yo.
And Jehoahaz sought the LORD, and the LORD listened to him: for he saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.
5 Seyè a voye yon moun pou sove pèp la. Se konsa, moun peyi Izrayèl yo soti anba men pèp Siri a. Yo tanmen viv ankò ak kè poze tankou anvan.
(And the LORD gave Israel a savior, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians: and the children of Israel dwelled in their tents, as beforetime.
6 Atousa, yo pa t' sispann fè peche fanmi Jewoboram yo te lakòz pèp la te fè. Yo lage kò yo nan fè menm peche yo tou. Estati Astate a te toujou kanpe lavil Samari.
Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but walked therein: and there remained the grove also in Samaria.)
7 Lame Joakaz te rete avèk sèlman senkant kavalye, dis cha lagè ak dimil (10.000) sòlda apye, paske wa peyi Siri a te touye tout lòt yo, li te pilonnen yo anba pye l' tankou pousyè.
Neither did he leave of the people to Jehoahaz but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made them like the dust by threshing.
8 Rès istwa Joakaz la ansanm ak tou sa li te fè, n'a jwenn yo ekri nan liv Istwa Wa peyi Izrayèl yo.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
9 Lè Joakaz mouri, yo antere l' lavil Samari. Se Joas, pitit gason l' lan, ki moute wa nan plas li.
And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his stead.
10 Wa Joas t'ap mache sou trannsetan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Joas, pitit Joakaz la, moute wa peyi Izrayèl. Li gouvènen peyi a pandan sèzan nan lavil Samari.
In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteen years.
11 Men, li te fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a, li te lage kò l' nan fè menm peche ak Jewoboram, pitit Nebat la, li lakòz pèp Izrayèl la peche tou. Li lage kò l' pi rèd ladan l'.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin: but he walked therein.
12 Tout rès istwa Joas la, tout sa li te fè, jan li te vanyan sòlda lè li t'ap fè lagè ak Amasya, wa peyi Jida a, tou sa te ekri nan liv Istwa Wa peyi Izrayèl yo.
And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
13 Lè li mouri, yo antere l' menm kote ak lòt wa peyi Izrayèl yo lavil Samari. Se Jewoboram ki moute wa nan plas li.
And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat on his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 Elize tonbe malad. Se maladi sa a ki te pou pote l' ale. Joas, wa peyi Izrayèl la, al wè l'. Wa a kriye, li lage kò l' sou figi Elize, li di konsa: —Papa mwen! Papa mwen! Ou menm ki te tankou yon gwo lame pou pran defans peyi Izrayèl la, w'ap mouri vre!
Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof.
15 Elize di li: —Pran yon banza ak kèk flèch. Wa a pran yon banza ak kèk flèch.
And Elisha said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he took to him bow and arrows.
16 Lè sa a, Elize di l' konsa: —Pare ou pou ou tire yon flèch. Wa a pare. Elize mete men pa l' sou men wa a.
And he said to the king of Israel, Put your hand on the bow. And he put his hand on it: and Elisha put his hands on the king’s hands.
17 Li di l': —Louvri fennèt ki bay sou solèy leve a. Wa a louvri fennèt la. Elize di li: —Koulye a tire! Wa a tire flèch la, lè sa a Elize pale byen fò li di: —Men flèch Seyè a voye pou bay delivrans lan, flèch ki pral kraze peyi Siri a! Ou pral bat moun Siri yo lavil Afèk jouk ou a fini ak yo.
And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, The arrow of the LORD’s deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria: for you shall smite the Syrians in Aphek, till you have consumed them.
18 Apre sa, Elize di wa a: —Pran lòt flèch yo! Wa a pran flèch yo. Elize di li: —Frape yo atè. Wa a frape yo atè an twa fwa epi li rete.
And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, Smite on the ground. And he smote thrice, and stayed.
19 Lè sa a, pwofèt la fache sou li, li di l' konsa: —Se pou ou te frape atè a senk fwa osinon sis fwa. Konsa, ou ta bat moun peyi Siri yo jouk ou ta fini nèt nèt ak yo. Koulye a, ou pral bat yo twa fwa ase.
And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, You should have smitten five or six times; then had you smitten Syria till you had consumed it: whereas now you shall smite Syria but thrice.
20 Elize mouri, yo antere l'. Chak lanne moun Moab yo te konn fè bann pou vin fè piyay nan peyi Izrayèl la.
And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
21 Yon lè moun peyi Izrayèl yo tapral antere yon moun mouri, yo wè yonn nan bann moun Moab yo, yo prese lage kadav la nan tonm Elize a epi yo met deyò. Kadav la al tonbe sou zosman Elize yo. Lamenm, mò a leve vivan, li kanpe sou de pye l'.
And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulcher of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
22 Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a, te maltrete pèp peyi Izrayèl la pandan tout reny Joakaz.
But Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
23 Men, Seyè a te aji byen ak moun peyi Izrayèl yo, li te gen pitye pou yo. Li pa t' kite moun fini ak yo, li te ede yo poutèt kontra li te pase ak Abraram, Izarak ak Jakòb. Li pa janm bliye pèp li a, jouk lè sa a.
And the LORD was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and had respect to them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.
24 Lè Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a, mouri, se Bennadad, pitit li, ki moute wa nan plas li.
So Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his stead.
25 Wa Joas, pitit gason Joakaz, repran nan men Bennadad tout lavil Azayèl te pran yo lè li t'ap fè lagè ak Joakaz la, papa l'. Joas bat Bennadad an twa fwa, li reprann tout lavil peyi Izrayèl yo nan men l'.
And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities, which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
