2 Wa 15

1 Wa Jewoboram te gen vennsetan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl lè Azarya, pitit Amasya, moute wa nan peyi Jida.

In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam, the king of Israel: Azariah, the son of Amaziah, reigned as king of Judah.

2 Li te gen sèzan lè sa a. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan senkanndezan. Manman l' te rele Jekolya. Se te moun lavil Jerizalèm.

He was sixteen years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for fifty-two years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.

3 Li te fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a, menm jan ak Amasya, papa l'.

And he did what was pleasing before the Lord, in accord with all that his father, Amaziah, did.

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.

Yet truly, he did not demolish the high places. And still the people were sacrificing, and burning incense, in the high places.

5 Seyè a peni wa a pou sa. Li voye yon move maladi po sou li ki rete avè l' jouk jou li mouri. Li te rete nan yon kay apa, yo pa t' kite l' gouvènen. Se Jotam, pitit li, ki te chèf nan palè a. Se li menm ki te regle tout zafè nan peyi a.

Now the Lord struck the king, and he became a leper, even until the day of his death. And he was living in a separate house by himself. And truly, Jotham, the son of the king, governed the palace, and he judged the people of the land.

6 Tout rès istwa Azarya a ak tou sa li te fè, n'a jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo.

Now the rest of the words of Azariah, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?

7 Lè Azarya mouri, yo antere l' menm kote ak zansèt li yo nan lavil David la. Se Jotam, pitit gason l' lan, ki moute wa nan plas li.

And Azariah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his ancestors in the city of David. And Jotham, his son, reigned in his place.

8 Wa Azarya te gen tranntwitan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Zakari, pitit Jewoboram, moute wa nan peyi Izrayèl. Li gouvènen nan lavil Samari pandan sis mwa.

In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah, the king of Judah: Zechariah, the son of Jeroboam, reigned over Israel, in Samaria, for six months.

9 Men li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a tankou zansèt li yo. Li te lage kò l' nan fè menm peche ak Jewoboram, pitit Nebat la, li te lakòz pèp Izrayèl la peche tou.

And he did what is evil before the Lord, just as his fathers had done. He did not withdraw from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin.

10 Chaloum, pitit Jabès, moute yon konplo sou do Zakari. Li atake l' lavil Jibleyam, li ansasinen l'. Apre sa, li moute wa nan plas li.

Then Shallum, the son of Jabesh, conspired against him. And he struck him openly, and killed him. And he reigned in his place.

11 Tout rès istwa Zakari a ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.

Now the rest of the words of Zechariah, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

12 Se konsa pawòl Seyè a te di Jeou a rive vre. Li te di l': Pitit ou yo ap chita sou fotèy wa peyi Izrayèl la jouk sou kat jenerasyon apre ou.

This was the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Jehu, saying: “Your sons, even to the fourth generation, shall sit upon the throne of Israel.” And so it happened.

13 Wa Azarya te gen trannevan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida a lè Chaloum, pitit Jabès, moute wa nan peyi Izrayèl. Li gouvènen nan lavil Samari pandan yon mwa.

Shallum, the son of Jabesh, reigned in the thirty-ninth year of Azariah, the king of Judah. And he reigned for one month, in Samaria.

14 Menayèm, pitit gason Gadi, soti lavil Tiza, li moute lavil Samari, l' al atake Chaloum. Li touye l', lèfini li moute wa nan plas li.

And Menahem, the son of Gadi, ascended from Tirzah. And he went into Samaria, and he struck Shallum, the son of Jabesh, in Samaria. And he killed him, and reigned in his place.

15 Tout rès istwa Chaloum lan ak konplo li te moute sou do Zakari a, tou sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.

Now the rest of the words of Shallum, and his conspiracy, by which he carried out treachery, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

16 Apre sa, Menayèm soti lavil Tiza, li atake lavil Tifsak, li touye dènye moun ki te rete ladan l' ak nan tout vwazenaj lavil la. Li menm rive louvri vant tout fanm ansent yo. Li te fè sa paske yo pa t' louvri pòtay lavil la ba li.

Then Menahem struck Tirzah, and all who were in it, and its borders around Tirzah. For they were not willing to open to him. And he killed all of its pregnant women, and he tore them open.

17 Wa Azarya t'ap mache sou tranteyennan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Menayèm, pitit Gadi, moute wa nan peyi Izrayèl. Li gouvènen nan lavil Samari pandan dizan.

In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah, the king of Judah: Menahem, son of Gadi, reigned over Israel for ten years, in Samaria.

18 Men, li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a. Jouk jou li mouri a, li lage kò l' nan fè menm peche ak Jewoboram, pitit Nebat la. Li lakòz pèp Izrayèl la peche tou.

And he did what was evil before the Lord. He did not withdraw from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin, during all his days.

19 Poul, wa peyi Lasiri, anvayi peyi a. Menayèm bay Poul twamil (3000) kilo ajan pou Poul te ka ede l' chita pouvwa li nan peyi a.

Then Pul, the king of the Assyrians, came into the land. And Menahem gave Pul one thousand talents of silver, so that he would be a help to him, and so that he might strengthen his kingdom.

20 Pou Menayèm te ka peye kantite lajan sa a bay wa Lasiri a, li pase lòd nan peyi a pou chak moun rich nan peyi Izrayèl la bay yon demi kilo ajan yo chak. Apre sa, wa peyi Lasiri a tounen lakay li, li pa rete pi lontan nan peyi Izrayèl.

And Menahem proclaimed a tax upon Israel, on all who were powerful and wealthy, so that each one would give to the king of the Assyrians fifty shekels of silver. Then the king of the Assyrians turned back, and he did not remain in the land.

21 Tout rès istwa Menayèm lan ak tou sa li te fè, nou jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.

Now the rest of the words of Menahem, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

22 Lè li mouri, se Pekaya, pitit li, ki moute wa nan plas li.

And Menahem slept with his fathers. And Pekahiah, his son, reigned in his place.

23 Wa Azarya t'ap mache sou senkantan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Pekaya, pitit Menayèm, moute wa nan peyi Izrayèl. Li gouvènen nan lavil Samari pandan dezan.

In the fiftieth year of Azariah, the king of Judah: Pekahiah, the son of Menahem, reigned over Israel, in Samaria, for two 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 was evil before the Lord. He did not withdraw from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin.

25 Men, yonn nan òdonans li yo, Peka, pitit gason Remalya, moute yon konplo sou do li. Li pran senkant gason nan lavil Galarad, l' al atake gwo fò ki nan palè wa a lavil Samari, li touye l'. Lèfini, li moute wa nan plas li.

Then Pekah, the son of Remaliah, his commander, conspired against him. And he struck him in Samaria, in the tower of the king’s house, near Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men from the sons of the Gileadites. And he killed him, and reigned in his place.

26 Tout rès istwa Pekaya a ak tou sa li te fè, nou jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.

Now the rest of the words of Pekahiah, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

27 Wa Azarya t'ap mache sou senkanndezan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Peka, pitit Remalya, moute wa nan peyi Izrayèl. Li gouvènen nan lavil Samari pandan ventan.

In the fifty-second year of Azariah, the king of Judah: Pekah, the son of Remaliah, reigned over Israel, in Samaria, for twenty years.

28 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 was evil before the Lord. He did not withdraw from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin.

29 Se sou reny Peka, Tiglat Pilesè, wa peyi Lasiri, anvayi peyi a, li pran lavil Ijon, lavil Abèl bèt Maka, lavil Janoa, lavil Kadès, lavil Azò, tout teritwa Galarad, tout teritwa Galile ak tout zòn Neftali a. Li fè tout moun yo prizonye, li depòte yo nan peyi Lasiri.

In the days of Pekah, the king of Israel, Tiglath-pileser, the king of Assyria, arrived and captured Ijon, and Abel Bethmaacah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, and the entire land of Naphtali. And he took them away into Assyria.

30 Lè sa a, Oze, pitit gason Ela a, moute yon konplo sou do Peka, pitit Remalya a. Li atake l', li touye l'. Lèfini, li moute wa nan plas li. Lè sa a, Jotam, pitit gason Ozyas la, te gen ventan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida.

Then Hoshea, the son of Elah, conspired and carried out treachery against Pekah, the son of Remaliah. And he struck him, and killed him. And he reigned in his place, in the twentieth year of Jotham, the son of Uzziah.

31 Tout rès istwa Peka a ak tou sa li te fè, nou jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl yo.

Now the rest of the words of Pekah, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

32 Wa Peka, pitit Remalya, t'ap mache sou dezan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl lè Jotam, pitit Ozyas, moute wa nan peyi Jida.

In the second year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel: Jotham, son of Uzziah, reigned as king of Judah.

33 Li te gen vennsenkan lè li moute wa. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan sèzan. Manman l' te rele Jewoucha. Se te pitit fi Zadòk.

He was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.

34 Li te mache dwat devan Seyè a, li te fè menm jan ak Ozyas, papa l'.

And he did what was pleasing before the Lord. In accord with all that his father, Uzziah, had done, so he did.

35 Tansèlman, li pa t' kraze tanp bondye lòt nasyon yo, kifè moun yo te toujou al touye bèt, boule lansan nan tanp sa yo. Se Jotam ki te bati gwo pòtay ki nan Tanp Seyè a.

Yet truly, he did not take away the high places. And still the people were immolating, and burning incense, in the high places. But he edified the gate of the house of the Lord to be very sublime.

36 Tout rès istwa Jotam ak tou sa li te fè, n'a jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo.

Now the rest of the words of Jotham, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?

37 Se sou reny li Seyè a te voye Rezin, wa peyi Siri, ak Peka, pitit Remalya a, vin atake peyi Jida yonn apre lòt.

In those days, the Lord began to send, into Judah, Rezin, the king of Syria, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah.

38 Lè Jotam mouri, yo antere l' menm kote ak zansèt li yo nan lavil David, zansèt li a. Se Akaz, pitit gason li, ki moute wa nan plas li.

And Jotham slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David, his father. And Ahaz, his son, reigned in his place.
