2 Wa 14
1 Wa Joas, pitit gason Joakaz la, t'ap mache sou dezan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl lè Amasya, pitit Joas, moute wa nan peyi Jida.
In the second year of Joash the son of Joachaz the king of Israel became Amazyahu, the son of Joash the king of Judah, king.
2 Li te gen vennsenkan lè sa a. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan ventnevan. Manman l' te rele Jeojadan. Se te yon moun lavil Jerizalèm.
Twenty and five years was he old when he became king, and twenty and nine years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yeho'addan of Jerusalem.
3 Li te fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a, men pa tankou David, zansèt li a. Li te fè menm jan ak Joas, papa l'.
And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, yet not like David his father: in accordance with all that Joash his father had done, [so] did he.
4 Tansèlman, li pa t' kraze tanp bondye lòt nasyon yo, kifè moun yo te toujou al touye bèt, boule lansan nan tanp sa yo.
Nevertheless the high-places were not removed: as yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense on the high-places.
5 Lè Amasya santi li byen chita sou pouvwa a, li fè touye tout chèf nan lame a ki te touye papa l'.
And it came to pass, when the kingdom was firmly established in his hand, that he slew his servants who had slain the king his father.
6 Men, li pa t' manyen pitit ansasen sa yo, paske, dapre sa ki ekri nan liv lalwa Moyiz la, Seyè a te di: Papa pa gen dwa peye pou sa pitit li yo fè, ni pitit pa gen dwa peye pou sa papa yo fè. Chak moun va peye pou sa yo fè.
But the children of the murderers he put not to death: as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, that the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor shall the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
7 Amasya te touye dimil (10.000) sòlda peyi Edon nan fon Sale a. Li goumen jouk li pran lavil Sela. Li rele l' Jokteyèl, non ki rete pou li jouk jounen jòdi a.
He it was that smote of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand men, and seized Sela' in the war, and called its name Yoktheel until this day.
8 Apre sa, Amasya voye misyon bay Joas, pitit Joakaz, pitit pitit Jeou, wa peyi Izrayèl la, li mande l' batay.
Then sent Amazyah messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoachaz the son of Jehu, the king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.
9 Joas voye reponn li: —Yon lè, yon touf pikan ki te sou mòn Liban voye yon misyon bay pye sèd la. Li di l' konsa: Bay pitit gason m' lan pitit fi ou la pou l' marye avè l'. Yon bèt nan bwa pase bò la, li kraze touf pikan an.
And Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amazyahu the king of Judah, saying, The thornbush that was in the Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in the Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son for wife. And there passed along the wild beasts that were in Lebanon, and trod down the thornbush.
10 Se pou m' di ou, Amasya, ou kraze moun peyi Edon yo. Koulye a, ou santi ou gwonèg anpil. M' byen kontan pou ou. Gonfle lestonmak ou jan ou kapab, men rete sou sa ou fè a. Poukisa pou w'ap chache traka bay kò ou pou sa pase mal ni pou ou ni pou peyi Jida a?
Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: keep thy glory and stay in thy house; and why wilt thou meddle with misfortune, that thou mayest fall, thou, and Judah with thee?
11 Men, Amasya derefize koute l'. Se konsa, Joas soti ak lame li pou l' al goumen ak Amasya bò lavil Betchemèch nan peyi Jida.
But Amazyahu would not hear. Therefore Jehoash the king of Israel went up; and he and Amazyahu the king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.
12 Lame Izrayèl la bat lame Jida a byen bat. Tout sòlda peyi Jida yo vole gagè, y' al lakay yo.
And Judah was defeated before Israel; and they fled every man to his tents.
13 Joas, wa peyi Izrayèl la, fè Amasya, wa peyi Jida a, prizonye lavil Bètchemèch. Lèfini li mache sou lavil Jerizalèm, li kraze miray ranpa lavil la depi nan Pòtay Efrayim rive bò Pòtay Kwen an sou yon longè sankatreven mèt antou.
And Jehoash the king of Israel caught Amazyahu the king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, the son of Achazyahu, at Beth-shemesh; and he came to Jerusalem, and made a breach in the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner-gate, four hundred cubits.
14 Li pran dènye bagay an lò ak an ajan li jwenn, tou sa ki te nan Tanp Seyè a ak tout richès ki te nan palè wa a. Li pote yo avè l' lavil Samari, san konte kantite moun li te fè prizonye sou kondisyon.
And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and the children of the chiefs as hostages, and returned to Samaria.
15 Tout rès istwa Joas la, tou sa li te fè, jan li te vanyan sòlda lè li t'ap goumen ak Amasya, wa peyi Jida a, nou jwenn tou sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his mighty deeds, and how he fought with Amazyahu the king of Judah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
16 Lè Joas mouri, yo antere l' lavil Samari nan kavo wa Izrayèl yo. Se Jewoboram, pitit gason l' lan, ki moute wa nan plas li.
And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel: and Jerobo'am his son became king in his stead.
17 Amasya, pitit Joas, wa peyi Jida a, te viv kenzan ankò apre lanmò Joas, pitit Joakaz, wa peyi Izrayèl la.
And Amazyahu the son of Joash the king of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash, the son of Jehoachaz the king of Israel, fifteen years.
18 Tout rès istwa Amasya a ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo.
And the rest of the acts of Amazyahu, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
19 Yo moute yon konplo lavil Jerizalèm pou yo touye Amasya. Se konsa Amasya kouri al kache lavil Lakis. Men, lènmi l' yo rapouswiv li, yo touye l'.
Now they raised a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: wherefore he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.
20 Apre sa, yo mete kadav li sou chwal, yo tounen avè l' lavil Jerizalèm, yo antere l' lavil David la nan kavo zansèt li yo.
And they brought him on horses: and he was buried at Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
21 Tout pèp peyi Jida a pran Azarya, pitit gason Amasya a, yo fè l' wa nan plas papa l'. Azarya te gen sèzan lè sa a.
And all the people of Judah took 'Azaryah, who was sixteen years old, and they made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.
22 Se li menm ki reprann lavil Elat, li fè l' tounen anba otorite wa Jida a, apre lanmò papa l'.
He it was that built Elath, and brought it back to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.
23 Amasya, pitit Joas, t'ap mache sou kenzan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Jewoboram, pitit Joas, wa peyi Izrayèl la, moute wa nan plas papa l'. Li gouvènen nan lavil Samari pandan karanteyen an.
In the fifteenth year of Amazyahu the son of Joash the king of Judah became Jerobo'am the son of Joash the king of Israel king in Samaria, [for] forty and one years.
24 Men li 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.
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord: he departed not from all the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin.
25 Se Jewoboram ki reprann tout zòn ki te pou peyi Izrayèl la depi nan Pas Amat la nan nò, rive Lanmè Mouri a nan sid, jan Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, te bay Jonas, sèvitè l' la, mesaj la. Jonas sa a, pitit Amitayi, te yon pwofèt lavil Gatefè.
He restored the boundary of Israel from the entrance of Chamath unto the sea of the plain; in accordance with the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he had spoken by means of his servant Jonah the son of Amitthai, the prophet, who was of Gathchepher.
26 Seyè a te wè jan pèp Izrayèl la t'ap soufri anpil. Tout moun, jenn gason kou granmoun, t'ap pase pa yo. Pa t'gen pyès moun pou pote yo sekou.
For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel, which was very bitter; that the guarded was no more, and that the fortified was no more, and there was no helper for Israel.
27 Se konsa, li voye Jewoboram, pitit Joas la, pou vin delivre yo, paske se pa t' janm lide l' pou l' te disparèt yo sou latè.
And the Lord had not spoken that he would blot out the name of Israel from under the heavens; but he helped them by means of Jerobo'am the son of Joash.
28 Tout rès istwa Jewoboram lan, tou sa li fè, jan li te vanyan sòlda lè li t'ap fè lagè, jan li te fè lavil Damas ak lavil Amat soti anba men moun Jida yo tounen anba otorite wa Izrayèl la, n'a jwenn tou sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa Izrayèl yo.
Now the rest of the acts of Jerobo'am, and all that he did, and his mighty deeds, how he warred, and how he brought back Damascus and Chamath, [which had belonged] to Judah, to Israel, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
29 Lè Jewoboram mouri, yo antere l' menm kote ak tout wa Izrayèl yo. Se Zakari, pitit li, ki moute wa nan plas li.
And Jerobo'am slept with his fathers, with the kings of Israel: and Zechariah his son became king in his stead.
