2 Wa 1
1 Apre lanmò Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la, peyi Moab pran lèzam kont moun Izrayèl yo.
Then Moab revolted against Israel, after the death of Ahab.
2 Okozyas, wa peyi Izrayèl la, pran yon so, li soti nan balkon lakay li, li tonbe sou twati palè li lavil Samari. Li fraktire nan tout kò l'. Li voye moun al pale ak Baalzeboub, bondye moun Filisti yo ki te gen tanp li lavil Ekwon, pou konnen si l'ap refè.
And Ahaziah fell through the lattice in his upper chamber, which was in Samaria, and became sick, —so he sent messengers, and said unto them—Go enquire of Baalzebub, god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this sickness.
3 Men, zanj Seyè a pale ak pwofèt Eli, moun lavil Tichbe a, li di l' konsa: —Leve al kontre mesaje Okozyas, wa peyi Samari a. W'a mande yo si pa gen Bondye nan peyi Izrayèl la kifè yo pral pale ak Baalzeboub, bondye lavil Ekwon an.
But, the messenger of Yahweh, spake unto Elijah the Tishbite, Rise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, —and say unto them—Is it, because there is no God in Israel, that, ye, are going to enquire of Baalzebub, god of Ekron?
4 W'a di yo tou men mesaj Seyè a voye bay wa a: Li p'ap leve sou kabann kote li kouche a paske li pral mouri. Eli leve, li fè sa Seyè a te mande l' fè a.
Wherefore, Thus, saith Yahweh, From the bed whereunto thou hast gone up, shalt thou not come down, for thou shalt, surely die. And Elijah departed.
5 Lè mesaje yo tounen al jwenn wa a, wa a mande yo: —Poukisa nou tounen?
And, when the messengers returned unto him, he said unto them—How is it that ye have returned?
6 Yo reponn li: —Paske nou kontre ak yon nonm sou wout nou ki di nou: Tounen al jwenn wa ki te voye nou an. N'a di li: Men mesaj Seyè a voye ba li: Kouman? Pa gen Bondye nan peyi Izrayèl la kifè ou voye moun al pale ak Baalzeboub, bondye lavil Ekwon an? Poutèt sa ou fè a, ou p'ap leve sou kabann kote ou kouche a, ou pral mouri.
And they said unto him—A man, came up to meet us, and said unto us—Go, return unto the king who sent you, and ye shall say unto him, Thus, saith Yahweh—Is it, because there is no God in Israel, that, thou, art sending to enquire of Baalzebub, god of Ekron? Therefore, from the bed whereunto thou hast gone up, shalt thou not come down, for thou shalt, surely die.
7 Wa a mande yo: —Moun ki te vin kontre nou an epi ki di nou tout pawòl sa yo, ki jan li te ye?
And he said unto them, What was the manner of the man who came up to meet you, —and spake unto you these words?
8 Msye yo reponn li: —Li te gen yon gwo rad fèt ak po bèt sou li ak yon sentiwon po bèt mare nan ren l'. Wa a di: —Se Eli, moun lavil Tichbe a.
And they said unto him—A hairy man, with a leathern girdle girt about his loins. And he said—Elijah the Tishbite, it was.
9 Li voye yon kaptenn ak senkant sòlda al chache Eli. Lè yo rive, yo jwenn Eli chita sou tèt yon ti mòn. Yo di li konsa: —Sèvitè Bondye, wa a pase ou lòd pou ou desann.
Then sent he unto him a captain of fifty, with his fifty, and he went up unto him, and lo! he abode on the top of the mountain, and he said unto him, O man of God! the king, hath said, Come down!
10 Eli reponn: —Si m' se yon sèvitè Bondye vre, se pou dife soti nan syèl la tonbe ni sou ou ni sou sòlda ou yo pou l' kankannen nou! Lamenm, yon dife soti nan syèl la, li kankannen ni kaptenn lan ni senkant sòlda li yo.
And Elijah responded and said unto the captain of fifty, If, then, a man of God, I am, let fire come down out of the heavens, and devour thee and thy fifty. So there came down fire out of the heavens, and devoured him and his fifty.
11 Wa voye yon lòt kaptenn ak senkant lòt sòlda. Lè yo rive, yo di Eli: —Sèvitè Bondye, wa a voye di ou desann koulye a san pèdi tan.
Then he again sent unto him another captain of fifty, with his fifty. And he also spake and said unto him, O man of God! thus, saith the king, Haste thee, come down!
12 Eli reponn: —Si m' se yon sèvitè Bondye vre, se pou dife soti nan syèl la tonbe ni sou ou ni sou senkant sòlda ou yo pou l' kankannen nou. Lamenm, yon dife soti nan syèl la, li kankannen ni kaptenn lan ni senkant sòlda li yo.
And Elijah responded and said unto them—If, a man of God, I am, let fire come down out of the heavens, and devour thee and thy fifty. And there came down a fire of God, out of the heavens, and devoured him and his fifty.
13 Fwa sa a ankò, wa a voye yon lòt kaptenn avèk senkant lòt sòlda. Lè kaptenn lan rive, li moute jouk kote Eli te ye a, li mete ajenou devan Eli, li di l' konsa: —Tanpri, sèvitè Bondye! Pitye pou mwen ak senkant sòlda mwen yo. Nou la pou rann ou nenpòt sèvis. Sove lavi nou!
Then he again sent a third captain of fifty, with his fifty, —and the third captain of fifty ascended and came near, and bowed down upon his knees before Elijah, and made supplication unto him, and said unto him, O man of God! let my life, I pray thee, and the lives of these thy fifty servants, be precious in thine eyes.
14 Dife soti nan syèl la, li tonbe sou de lòt kaptenn yo ak tout sòlda ki te avèk yo! Tanpri, pitye pou mwen.
Lo! there hath come down fire out of the heavens, and devoured the captains of the former fifties, with their fifties, —now, therefore, let my life be precious in thine eyes.
15 Lè sa a, zanj Seyè a di Eli konsa: —Ou mèt ale ak msye. Ou pa bezwen pè l'. Eli leve, li desann ak kaptenn lan, l' al jwenn wa a.
And the messenger of Yahweh said unto Elijah, Go down with him, do not fear because of him, So he arose, and went down with him, unto the king;
16 Li di wa a konsa: —Men mesaj Seyè a voye ba ou: Paske ou voye moun al pale ak Baalzeboub, bondye lavil Ekwon an, tankou si pa gen Bondye nan peyi Izrayèl la ou ta ka al wè, ou p'ap janm leve sou kabann kote ou kouche a, ou pral mouri.
and said unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh—For that thou didst send messengers to enquire of Baalzebub, god of Ekron, was it because there was no God in Israel, for whose word thou couldst enquire? Therefore, from the bed whereunto thou hast gone up, shalt thou not come down, for thou shalt, surely die.
17 Okozyas mouri vre, jan Seyè a te di l' la nan bouch Eli. Okozyas pa t' gen pitit gason. Se Joram, frè li, ki moute sou fotèy la nan plas li. Lè sa a, Joram, pitit gason Jozafa a, t'ap mache sou dezan depi li t'ap gouvènen nan peyi Jida.
And he died, according to the word of Yahweh which, Elijah, had spoken, and Jehoram reigned in his stead, in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, —because he had no son.
18 Tout rès istwa Okozyas 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 story of Ahaziah, the things that he did, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
