1 Wa 16
1 Alò, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini aJéhu, fis a Hanani a kont Baescha, e te di:
The LORD’s word came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying,
2 “Mwen te egzalte ou, Baescha, soti nan pousyè e Mwen te fè ou chèf sou pèp Mwen an, Israël. E ou te mache nan chemen Jéroboam pou te fè pèp Mwen an, Israël peche e te pwovoke M a lakòlè avèk peche pa yo.
“Because I exalted you out of the dust and made you prince over my people Israel, and you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins,
3 Veye byen, Mwen va manje Baescha nèt avèk lakay li e Mwen va fè lakay ou tankou lakay Jéroboam, fis a Nebat la.
behold, I will utterly sweep away Baasha and his house; and I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
4 Nenpòt moun nan Baescha ki mouri nan vil la, li va manje pa chen e nenpòt moun nan sila ki mouri nan chan, zwazo syèl yo va manje l.”
The dogs will eat Baasha’s descendants who die in the city; and he who dies of his in the field, the birds of the sky will eat.”
5 Alò, lòt zèv a Baescha, sa li te fè ak pwisans li, èske yo pa t ekri nan Liv Kwonik a Wa Israël yo?
Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
6 Epi Baescha te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e li te antere Thirtsa. Epi Éla, fis li a, te vin wa nan plas li.
Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah; and Elah his son reigned in his place.
7 Anplis, pawòl SENYÈ a, pa pwofèt la, Jéhu, fis a Hanani an, osi te vini kont Baescha avèk lakay li, akoz tout mal li te fè nan zye SENYÈ a, lè l te pwovoke Li a lakòlè avèk zèv a men li yo, lè li te vin tankou lakay Jéroboam e osi akoz li te frape li.
Moreover the LORD’s word came by the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha and against his house, both because of all the evil that he did in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because he struck him.
8 Nan venn-sizyèm ane Asa a, wa a Juda a, Éla, fis a Baescha a, te vin wa sou Israël nan Thirtsa e li te renye pandan dezan.
In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah the son of Baasha began to reign over Israel in Tirzah for two years.
9 Sèvitè li, Zimri, chèf a mwatye cha li yo, te fè konplo kont li. Alò, li te lakay Thirtsa, e li t ap bwè jiskaske li te vin sou lakay Artsa, ki te chèf sou tout kay Thirtsa a.
His servant Zimri, captain of half his chariots, conspired against him. Now he was in Tirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was over the household in Tirzah;
10 Alò, Zimri te antre frape li e te mete l a lanmò nan venn-setyèm ane Asa a, wa a Juda a e li te devni wa nan plas li.
and Zimri went in and struck him and killed him in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his place.
11 Li te vin rive ke lè li te devni wa a, depi li te chita sou twòn nan, ke li te touye tout manm lakay Baesche yo. Li pa t kite menm yon gason, ni pami fanmi, ni nan zanmi li yo.
When he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, he attacked all the house of Baasha. He didn’t leave him a single one who urinates on a wall among his relatives or his friends.
12 Konsa, Zimri te detwi tout lakay Baesche, selon pawòl ke SENYÈ a te pale kont Baesche pa Jéhu, pwofèt la,
Thus Zimri destroyed all the house of Baasha, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke against Baasha by Jehu the prophet,
13 pou tout peche a Baesche yo ak peche a Éla, fis li a, peche ke yo te fè e avèk sila yo te fè Israël peche yo, e ki te pwovoke Li a lakòlè avèk zidòl pa yo.
for all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, which they sinned and with which they made Israel to sin, to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities.
14 Alò, tout lòt zèv a Éla yo avèk tout sa ke li te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik a Wa Israël yo?
Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
15 Nan venn-setyèm ane Asa a, wa Juda a, Zimri, te renye pandan sèt jou nan Thirtsa. Alò, pèp la te fè kan kont Guibbethon, ki te pou Filisten yo.
In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri reigned seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.
16 Moun ki te nan kan yo te tande li e te di: “Zimri te fè konplo pou vin frape wa a.” Pou sa, tout Israël te fè Omri chèf lame a wa a sou Israël menm jou sa a nan kan an.
The people who were encamped heard that Zimri had conspired, and had also killed the king. Therefore all Israel made Omri, the captain of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp.
17 Alò, Omri ak tout Israël avèk li te monte soti nan Guibbethon pou te fè syèj kont Thirtsa.
Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah.
18 Lè Zimri te wè vil la te tonbe, li te monte nan sitadèl lakay wa a. Li te brile lakay wa a sou pwòp tèt li avèk dife, e li te mouri.
When Zimri saw that the city was taken, he went into the fortified part of the king’s house and burned the king’s house over him with fire, and died,
19 Sa te fèt akoz peche ke li te fè yo, ak mal li te fè nan zye SENYÈ a, li te mache nan chemen Jéroboam. Nan peche li te fè yo, li te fè Israël peche.
for his sins which he sinned in doing that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did to make Israel to sin.
20 Alò lòt zèv a Zimri yo avèk konplo li te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri an Liv Kwonik a Wa Israël yo?
Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his treason that he committed, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
21 Alò, pèp Israël yo te divize an de pati: mwatye te swiv Thibni, fis a Guinath la pou fè l devni wa; mwatye te swiv Omri.
Then the people of Israel were divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king, and half followed Omri.
22 Men moun ki te swiv Omri yo te vin genyen sou moun ki te swiv Thibni yo, fis a Guinath la. Epi Thibni te mouri e Omri te vin wa a.
But the people who followed Omri prevailed against the people who followed Tibni the son of Ginath; so Tibni died, and Omri reigned.
23 Nan tranteyen ane Asa a, wa Juda a, Omri te devni wa sou Israël e li te renye pandan douz ane. Li te renye pandan sizan nan Thirtsa.
In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri began to reign over Israel for twelve years. He reigned six years in Tirzah.
24 Li te achte ti mòn Samarie a nan men Schémer pou de talan ajan; epi li te bati sou ti mòn nan e li te rele vil ke li te bati a Samarie menm non a Schémer, mèt a ti mòn nan.
He bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of silver; and he built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built, Samaria, after the name of Shemer, the owner of the hill.
25 Omri te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a e li te aji avèk plis mechanste pase tout moun ki te avan l yo.
Omri did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and dealt wickedly above all who were before him.
26 Paske li te mache nan tout chemen a Jéroboam yo, fis a Nebat la ak nan peche pa li avèk sila li te fè Israël peche yo, e te pwovoke SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, avèk zidòl pa yo.
For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in his sins with which he made Israel to sin, to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities.
27 Alò, tout lòt zèv ke Omri te fè yo ak pwisans ke li te montre yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik a Wa Israël yo?
Now the rest of the acts of Omri which he did, and his might that he showed, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
28 Konsa, Omri te dòmi avèk zansèt pa li yo e li te antere Samarie; epi Achab, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
So Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria; and Ahab his son reigned in his place.
29 Alò, Achab, fis a Omri a te devni wa sou Israël pandan trann-tuit ane Asa yo, wa Juda a, e Achab, fis a Omri a te renye sou Israël nan Samarie pandan venn-dezan.
In the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, Ahab the son of Omri began to reign over Israel. Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.
30 Achab, fis Omri a te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a plis pase tout moun ki te avan li yo.
Ahab the son of Omri did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight above all that were before him.
31 Li te vin rive ke kòmsi li te yon ti bagay pou li te mache nan peche a Jéroboam yo, fis a Nebat la, ke li te marye ak Jézabel, fi a Ethbaal la, wa a Sidonyen yo, li te ale sèvi Baal e te adore li.
As if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, he took as wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and went and served Baal and worshiped him.
32 Konsa, li te fè monte yon lotèl pou Baal nan kay Baal ke li te bati Samarie a.
He raised up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.
33 Achab osi te fè Astarté. Konsa, Achab te fè plis pou pwovoke SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, pase tout wa a Israël ki te avan li yo.
Ahab made the Asherah; and Ahab did more yet to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel who were before him.
34 Nan jou pa li yo, Hiel, moun Béthel la te bati Jéricho. Li te poze fondasyon li yo avèk pèt Abiram, premye ne li a e li te monte pòtay li yo avèk pèt a pi piti fis li a, Segub, selon pawòl SENYÈ a te pale pa Josué, fis a Nun nan.
In his days Hiel the Bethelite built Jericho. He laid its foundation with the loss of Abiram his firstborn, and set up its gates with the loss of his youngest son Segub, according to the LORD’s word, which he spoke by Joshua the son of Nun.
