2 Wa 8

1 Elize te pale ak madanm ki te manman ti gason li te fè tounen vivan sot nan lanmò a, li te di l' pou li pati ansanm ak tout fanmi l' al viv nan yon lòt peyi paske Seyè a te fè konnen talè konsa yon gwo grangou tapral tonbe sou tout peyi a pou sètan.

And Elisha spake unto the woman whose son he had revived, saying, 'Rise and go, thou and thy household, and sojourn where thou dost sojourn, for Jehovah hath called for a famine, and also, it is coming unto the land seven years.'

2 Fanm lan leve, li fè sa pwofèt la te ba li konsèy fè a. Li pati ansanm ak tout fanmi l' al rete nan peyi Filisti a pandan sètan.

And the woman riseth, and doth according to the word of the man of God, and goeth, she and her household, and sojourneth in the land of the Philistines seven years.

3 Lè sètan yo fin pase, li tounen nan peyi Izrayèl, l' al jwenn wa a, li mande l' pou yo renmèt li kay li ak jaden li.

And it cometh to pass, at the end of seven years, that the woman turneth back from the land of the Philistines, and goeth out to cry unto the king, for her house, and for her field.

4 Li jwenn wa a t'ap pale ak Gerazi, domestik pwofèt Bondye a, paske wa a te mande l' pou l' te vin rakonte l' tout bèl bagay Elize te fè yo.

And the king is speaking unto Gehazi, servant of the man of God, saying, 'Recount, I pray thee, to me, the whole of the great things that Elisha hath done.'

5 Gerazi t'ap rakonte wa a kijan Elize te fè pitit gason yon fanm leve soti vivan nan lanmò lè madanm lan vin pale ak wa a pou kay li ak jaden l' yo. Gerazi di wa a: —Monwa, men madanm lan ansanm ak pitit gason Elize te fè leve soti vivan nan lanmò a.

And it cometh to pass, he is recounting to the king how he had revived the dead, and lo, the woman whose son he had revived is crying unto the king, for her house and for her field, and Gehazi saith, 'My lord, O king, this [is] the woman, and this her son, whom Elisha revived.'

6 Wa a mande madanm lan pou li rakonte l' jan sa te pase. Lè madanm lan fini, wa a bay yonn nan chèf li yo lòd renmèt madanm lan tou sa ki te pou li ansanm ak tou sa jaden yo te rapòte depi jou li te kite peyi a rive jouk jou li tounen an.

And the king asketh at the woman, and she recounteth to him, and the king appointeth to her a certain eunuch, saying, 'Give back all that she hath, and all the increase of the field from the day of her leaving the land even till now.'

7 Apre sa, Elize ale lavil Damas. Bennadad, wa peyi Siri a, te malad. y' al di wa a pwofèt la te nan lavil la.

And Elisha cometh in to Damascus, and Ben-Hadad king of Aram is sick, and it is declared to him, saying, 'The man of God hath come hither.'

8 Wa a rele Azayèl, yonn nan chèf li yo, li di l' konsa: —Pote yon bagay fè pwofèt Bondye a kado. Lèfini, mande l' pou l' pale ak Seyè a pou konnen si m'ap leve anba maladi sa a.

And the king saith unto Hazael, 'Take in thy hand a present, and go to meet the man of God, and thou hast sought Jehovah by him, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?'

9 Se konsa Azayèl al wè Elize, li pran tout kalite bon bagay li jwenn lavil Damas, li chaje yo sou karant chamo pote bay Elize. Lè li rive devan Elize, li di l' konsa: —Pitit ou, Bennadad, wa peyi Siri a, voye m' vin mande ou si l'ap leve anba maladi l' la.

And Hazael goeth to meet him, and taketh a present in his hand, even of every good thing of Damascus, a burden of forty camels, and he cometh in and standeth before him, and saith, 'Thy son Ben-Hadad, king of Aram, hath sent me unto thee, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?'

10 Elize reponn: —Seyè a fè m' konnen l'ap mouri, men ou menm, al di l' l'ap refè.

And Elisha saith unto him, 'Go, say, Thou dost certainly not revive, seeing Jehovah hath shewed me that he doth surely die.'

11 Lè li fin di sa, Elize pran gade Azayèl nan je. Lè Azayèl wè sa, sa jennen l' anpil. Elize rete konsa, dlo pran kouri nan je l'.

And he setteth his face, yea, he setteth [it] till he is ashamed, and the man of God weepeth.

12 Azayèl mande l': —Mèt, poukisa w'ap kriye a? Elize reponn: —Paske mwen gen tan konnen tou sa ou pral fè pèp Izrayèl la pase. Ou pral met dife nan gwo fò yo, ou pral touye jenn gason l' yo ak nepe, ou pral kraze pitit yo, ou pral louvri vant fanm ansent yo.

And Hazael saith, 'Wherefore is my lord weeping?' and he saith, 'Because I have known the evil that thou dost to the sons of Israel — their fenced places thou dost send into fire, and their young men with sword thou dost slay, and their sucklings thou dost dash to pieces, and their pregnant women thou dost rip up.'

13 Azayèl mande l': —Kisa m' ye menm pou m' ta rive fè tou sa? Mwen pa pi bon pase yon chen. Elize reponn li: —Seyè a fè m' konnen se ou ki pral wa peyi Siri.

And Hazael saith, 'But what, [is] thy servant the dog, that he doth this great thing?' And Elisha saith, 'Jehovah hath shewed me thee — king of Aram.'

14 Azayèl kite Elize, li tounen al jwenn mèt li ki mande l': —Sa Elize di ou? Li reponn: —Li di m' li sèten w'ap refè.

And he goeth from Elisha, and cometh in unto his lord, and he saith unto him, 'What said Elisha to thee?' and he saith, 'He said to me, Thou dost certainly recover.'

15 Men nan denmen, Azayèl pran yon dra, li plonje l' nan dlo, li mete l' sou figi wa a. Wa a toufe, li mouri. Azayèl moute wa sou fotèy Siri a nan plas Bennadad.

And it cometh to pass on the morrow, that he taketh the coarse cloth, and dippeth in water, and spreadeth on his face, and he dieth, and Hazael reigneth in his stead.

16 Wa Joram, pitit gason Akab la, t'ap mache sou senkan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl lè Joram, pitit gason Jozafa ki te wa peyi Jida a, moute wa nan plas papa l'.

And in the fifth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel — and Jehoshaphat [is] king of Judah — hath Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah reigned;

17 Li te gen tranndezan lè li moute wa. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan witan.

a son of thirty and two years was he in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem.

18 Li te marye ak yon pitit fi Akab. Tankou lòt moun fanmi Akab yo, li mache pye pou pye dèyè wa peyi Izrayèl yo. Li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a.

And he walketh in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab, for a daughter of Ahab was to him for a wife, and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah,

19 Men, Seyè a pa t' vle detwi peyi Jida a, paske li te pwomèt David, sèvitè l' la, t'ap toujou gen yon moun nan ras li pou gouvènen peyi a devan Seyè a.

and Jehovah was not willing to destroy Judah, for the sake of David his servant, as He said to him, to give to him a lamp — to his sons all the days.

20 Sou reny wa Joram, moun peyi Edon yo pran lezam kont moun peyi Jida yo. Yo pran libète granmoun yo. Yo nonmen yon wa pou gouvènen yo.

In his days hath Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and they cause a king to reign over them,

21 Se konsa Joram soti ak tout cha lagè li yo, li mache sou lavil Zayi. Lame moun Edon yo sènen l'. Pandan lannwit, li menm ak chèf cha lagè li yo, yo leve yo atake moun Edon yo ki te sènen yo, yo pase soti nan mitan yo, yo chape. Tout sòlda yo gaye al lakay yo.

and Joram passeth over to Zair, and all the chariots with him, and he himself hath risen by night, and smiteth Edom, that is coming round about unto him, and the heads of the chariots, and the people fleeth to its tents;

22 Se depi lè sa a, peyi Edon an soti anba lòd peyi Jida, yo granmoun lakay yo. Se menm lè a tou moun lavil Libna yo pran libète granmoun yo tou.

and Edom revolteth from under the hand of Judah till this day; then doth Libnah revolt at that time.

23 N'a jwenn rès istwa Joram ak tou sa li te fè ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Jida yo.

And the rest of the matters of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

24 Lè Joram mouri, yo antere l' nan kavo zansèt li yo nan lavil David la. Apre sa, se Okozyas, pitit li a, ki moute wa nan plas li.

And Joram lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David, and reign doth Ahaziah his son in his stead.

25 Wa Joram, pitit Akab la, t'ap mache sou douzan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl lè Okozyas, pitit Joram, moute wa sou fotèy peyi Jida a.

In the twelfth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel reigned hath Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah;

26 Li te gen venndezan. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan ennan. Manman l' te rele Atali. Se te pitit fi Akab, pitit pitit fi Omri, tou de wa peyi Izrayèl.

a son of twenty and two years [is] Ahaziah in his reigning, and one year he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Athaliah daughter of Omri king of Israel,

27 Okozyas mache pye pou pye dèyè moun fanmi Akab yo. Li te marye nan fanmi wa Akab. Li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a tankou yo.

and he walketh in the way of the house of Ahab, and doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, like the house of Ahab, for he [is] son-in-law of the house of Ahab.

28 Wa Okozyas mete tèt ansanm ak wa Joram, pitit Akab, pou y' al atake Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a. Lame yo kontre yonn ak lòt bò lavil Ramòt nan peyi Galarad. Sòlda peyi Siri yo blese Joram nan batay la.

And he goeth with Joram son of Ahab to battle with Hazael king of Aram in Ramoth-Gilead, and the Aramaeans smite Joram,

29 Joram tounen lavil Jizreyèl pou l' te refè anba kou sòlda peyi Siri yo te ba li lavi Ramòt lè li t'ap goumen ak Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a. Okozyas, pitit Joram, wa peyi Jida a, desann lavil Jizreyèl al wè wa Joram, pitit Akab la, paske Joram te malad.

and Joram the king turneth back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds with which the Arameans smite him in Ramah, in his fighting with Hazael king of Aram, and Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah hath gone down to see Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, for he is sick.
