2 Istwa 12

1 Lè wayòm a Roboam nan te fin etabli e li te gen fòs, li menm ak tout Israël avèk li te abandone lalwa SENYÈ a.

And it was when established [the] kingdom of Rehoboam and according to strengthening his he forsook [the] law of Yahweh and all Israel with him.

2 Konsa, li te vin rive nan senkyèm ane a Roboam nan, akoz yo pa t fidèl a SENYÈ a, ke Schischak, wa Égypte la, te monte kont Jérusalem,

And it was in the year fifth of the king Rehoboam he came up Shishak [the] king of Egypt on Jerusalem for they had acted unfaithfully against Yahweh.

3 avèk mil-de-san cha ak swasann-di-mil chevalye. Epi moun ki te vini avèk li soti an Égypte yo te depase kontwòl: Libyen yo, Sikyen ak Etyopyen yo.

With one thousand and two hundred chariot[s] and with sixty thousand horsemen and not number [belonged] to the people which they came with him from Egypt Libyans Sukkites and Cushites.

4 Li te kaptire vil fòtifye Juda yo, e li te rive jis Jérusalem.

And he captured [the] cities of fortifications which [belonged] to Judah and he came to Jerusalem.

5 Epi Schemaeja, pwofèt la, te vin kote Roboam avèk chèf Juda ki te rasanble nan Jérusalem akoz Schischak yo, e li te di yo: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Ou te abandone Mwen, e pou sa, Mwen te abandone ou bay Schischak.’”

And Shemaiah the prophet he came to Rehoboam and [the] leaders of Judah who they had gathered to Jerusalem because of Shishak and he said to them thus he says Yahweh you you have abandoned me and also I I have abandoned you in [the] hand of Shishak.

6 Pou sa, chèf Israël yo avèk wa a te imilye yo. Yo te di: “SENYÈ a jis.”

And they humbled themselves [the] leaders of Israel and the king and they said [is] righteous - Yahweh.

7 Lè SENYÈ a te wè ke yo te imilye yo, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Schemaeja, e te di: “Yo te imilye yo. Pou sa, Mwen p ap detwi yo, men Mwen va ba yo yon mezi delivrans, e lakòlè Mwen p ap vide sou Jérusalem pa mwayen a Schischak.

And when saw Yahweh that they had humbled themselves it came [the] word of Yahweh to Shemaiah - saying they have humbled themselves not I will destroy them and I will give to them like a little deliverance and not it will pour forth rage my on Jerusalem by [the] hand of Shishak.

8 Men yo va devni esklav li, pou yo kab vin konprann antre sèvi Mwen ak sèvi wayòm lòt peyi yo.”

For they will become of him subjects so they may know service my and [the] service of [the] kingdoms of the lands.

9 Konsa Schischak, wa Égypte la, te monte kont Jérusalem, e li te pran tout trezò lakay SENYÈ a ak trezò nan palè wa a. Li te pran tout bagay.

And he came up Shishak [the] king of Egypt on Jerusalem and he took [the] treasures of [the] house of Yahweh and [the] treasures of [the] house of the king everything he took and he took [the] shields of gold which he had made Solomon.

10 Konsa, Wa Roboam te fè boukliye defans an bwonz pou ranplase yo, e li te mete yo anba pwotèj a kòmandan gad ki te gadyen pòtay lakay wa yo.

And he made the king Rehoboam in place of them shields of bronze and he entrusted [them] on [the] hand of [the] commanders of the runners who guarded [the] entrance of [the] house of the king.

11 Depi wa a te antre lakay SENYÈ a, gad yo te pote yo vini, e apre, yo te mennen yo tounen nan chanm gad yo.

And it was as often as came the king [the] house of Yahweh they came the runners and they carried them and they returned them to [the] guardroom of the runners.

12 Epi lè li te fin imilye li, lakòlè SENYÈ a te vire kite li, pou l pa ta detwi nèt; epi anplis, tout bagay te mache byen an Juda.

And when he humbled himself it turned back from him [the] anger of Yahweh and not to destroy to complete destruction and also in Judah it was things good.

13 Konsa, Wa Roboam te ranfòse tèt li Jérusalem, e li te renye. Alò, Roboam te gen laj karanteyen ane lè li te kòmanse renye, e li te renye di-sèt-ane Jérusalem, vil ke SENYÈ a te chwazi soti nan tout tribi Israël yo pou mete non Li an. Epi non manman li te Naama, Amoreyèn nan.

And he strengthened himself the king Rehoboam in Jerusalem and he reigned for [was] a son of forty and one year[s] Rehoboam when became king he and seven-teen year[s] - he reigned in Jerusalem the city where he had chosen Yahweh to put name his there from all [the] tribes of Israel and [the] name of mother his [was] Naamah the Ammonite [woman].

14 Li te fè mal, paske li pa t aplike kè l pou konnen SENYÈ a.

And he did evil for not he had directed heart his to seek Yahweh.

15 Alò, zèv a Roboam yo, soti nan premye a jis rive nan dènye a, èske yo pa ekri nan rekò a Schemaeja yo, pwofèt a Iddo a, konseye a, selon anrejistreman zansèt yo? Epi te gen lagè kont Roboam avèk Jéroboam tout tan.

And [the] matters of Rehoboam former and latter ¿ not [are] they written in [the] words of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer for genealogical enrollment and [the] wars of Rehoboam and Jeroboam [were] all the days.

16 Konsa, Roboam te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e li te antere nan lavil David la. Epi fis li a, Abija te vin wa nan plas li.

And he lay down Rehoboam with ancestors his and he was buried in [the] city of David and he became king Abijah son his in place of him.
