2 Istwa 13

1 Nan di-zuityèm ane Wa Jéroboam nan, Abijah te devni wa sou Juda.

Yn the eiytenthe yeer of kyng Jeroboam Abia regnede on Juda;

2 Li te renye pandan twazan Jérusalem. Non manman l te Micaja, fi a Uriel la nan Guibea. Alò, te gen lagè antre Abija avèk Jéroboam.

he regnede thre yeer in Jerusalem; and the name of hise modir was Mychaie, the douyter of Vriel of Gabaa. And batel was bitwixe Abia and Jeroboam.

3 Abija te ouvri batay la avèk yon lame gèrye vanyan, kat-san-mil mesye byen chwazi, pandan Jéroboam t ap fè fòmasyon batay la kont li avèk ui-san-mil mesye byen chwazi, gèrye vanyan.

And whanne Abia hadde bigunne batel, and hadde most chyualrouse men, and four hundrid thousynde of chosun men, Jeroboam arayede ayenward the scheltroun with eiyte hundrid thousynde of men, and thei weren chosun men and most stronge to batels.

4 Abija te kanpe sou Mòn Tsemaraïm ki nan peyi ti mòn Éphraïm yo, e li te di: “Koute mwen, O Jéroboam avèk tout Israël:

Therfor Abia stood on the hil Semeron, that was in Effraym, and seide, Here thou, Jeroboam and al Israel;

5 Èske ou pa konnen ke SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, te bay pouvwa sou Israël jis pou tout tan a David avèk fis li yo pa yon sèl akò?

whether ye knowen not, that the Lord God of Israel yaf to Dauid the rewme on Israel with outen ende, to hym and to hise sones in to the couenaunt of salt, `that is, stidefast and stable?

6 Men Jéroboam, fis a Nebath la, sèvitè a Salomon an, fis a David la, te leve e te fè rebèl kont mèt li a.

And Jeroboam, the sone of Nabath, the seruaunt of Salomon, sone of Dauid, roos, and rebellide ayens his lord.

7 Yon bann sanzave te rasanble vè li menm, vagabon yo, yon eprèv ki te twò fò pou Roboam, fis a Salomon an, lè li te trè jèn, timid e li pa t ka kenbe plas pa l kont yo.

And most veyn men and the sones of Belial weren gaderid to hym, and thei hadden myyt ayens Roboam, the sone of Salomon. Certis Roboam was buystuouse, `ether fonne, and of feerdful herte, and myyte not ayenstonde hem.

8 “Epi koulye a, ou gen entansyon fè rezistans kont wayòm SENYÈ a pa fis a David yo. Se yon gran foul nou ye, e nou gen avèk nou jenn bèf an lò ke Jéroboam te fè kòm dye pou nou.

Now therfor ye seien, that ye moun ayenstonde the rewme of the Lord, which he holdith in possessioun bi the sones of Dauid; and ye han a greet multitude of puple, and goldun caluys, whiche Jeroboam made in to goddis to you.

9 Èske nou pa t chase mete deyò prèt SENYÈ yo, fis a Aaron yo avèk Levit yo, e te fè pou kont nou prèt tankou pèp lòt peyi yo? Nenpòt moun ki vini konsakre li menm avèk yon jenn towo ak sèt belye, menm li menm kapab devni yon prèt a sila ki pa dye yo.

And ye han caste a wei the preestis of the Lord, the sones of Aaron, and dekenes, and ye han maad preestis to you, as alle the puplis of londis han preestis; who euer cometh and halewith his hond in a bole, in oxis, and in seuene wetheris, anoon he is maad preest of hem that ben not goddis.

10 “Men pou nou, SENYÈ a se Bondye pa nou an e nou pa t abandone Li. Fis Aaron yo ap fè sèvis a SENYÈ a kòm prèt e se Levit yo ki fè travay a yo menm.

But oure Lord is God, whom we forsaken not; and preestis of the sones of Aaron mynystren to the Lord, and dekenes ben in her ordre;

11 Chak maten e chak swa, yo brile bay SENYÈ a ofrann brile avèk lansan santi bon, pen konsakre ki sou tab pwòp, e chandelye a avèk lanp li yo pou limen chak swa; paske nou kenbe chaj a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, men ou te abandone Li.

and thei offren brent sacrifices to the Lord bi ech dai in the morewtid and euentid, and encense maad bi comaundementis of the lawe; and loues ben set forth in a moost clene boord; and at vs is the goldun candilstik and his lanterne, that it be teendid euere at euentid; forsothe we kepen the comaundementis of our God, whom ye han forsake.

12 Koulye a, veye byen, Bondye avèk nou sou tèt nou, e prèt Li yo avèk twonpèt siyal pou sonnen alam kont nou. O fis Israël yo, pa goumen kont SENYÈ a zansèt nou yo, paske nou p ap reyisi.”

Therfor God is duyk in oure oost, and hise preestis, that trumpen and sownen ayens you; nyle ye, sones of Israel, fiyte ayens the Lord God of youre fadris, for it spedith not to you.

13 Men Jéroboam te fè yon anbiskad pou vini pa dèyè, pou Israël ta devan Juda e anbiskad la pa dèyè yo.

While he spak these thingis, Jeroboam made redi tresouns bihynde; and whanne he stood euene ayens the enemyes, he cumpasside with his oost Juda vnwitynge.

14 Lè Juda te vire, alò yo te atake ni devan ni dèyè; pou sa, yo te kriye a SENYÈ a e prèt yo te soufle twonpèt yo.

And Juda bihelde, and siy batel neiy euene ayens, and bihynde the bak; and he criede to the Lord, and preestis bigunnen for to trumpe.

15 Konsa mesye Juda te fè leve kri lagè a, e nan moman sa a, Bondye te boulvèse Jéroboam avèk tout Israël devan Abija avèk Juda.

And alle the men of Juda crieden, and, lo! while thei crieden, God made aferd Jeroboam and al Israel, that stood euen ayens Juda and Abia.

16 Lè fis Israël yo te fin sove ale devan Juda, Bondye te livre yo nan men yo.

And the men of Israel fledden fro Juda, and God bitook hem in to the hondis of men of Juda.

17 Abija avèk pèp li a te detwi yo avèk yon gwo masak, jiskaske senk-san-mil mesye Israël te tonbe mouri.

Therfor Abia and his puple smoot hem with a greet wounde, and there felden doun of hem fyue hundrid thousynde of stronge men woundid.

18 Konsa, fis Israël yo te soumèt nan tan sa a, e fis Juda yo te pran viktwa a akoz yo te depan de SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt pa yo a.

And the sones of Israel weren maad lowe in that tyme, and the sones of Juda weren coumfortid ful greetli, for thei hadden hopid in the Lord God of her fadris.

19 Abija te kouri dèyè Jéroboam e te kaptire plizyè vil nan men li: Béthel avèk bouk pa li yo, Jeschana avèk bouk pa li yo, e Éphron avèk bouk pa li yo.

Forsothe Abia pursuede Jeroboam fleynge, and took hise cytees, Bethel and hise vilagis, and Jesana with hise vilagis, and Ephron and hise vilagis;

20 Jéroboam pa t ankò reprann fòs li nan jou a Abija yo. SENYÈ a te frape li e li te vin mouri.

and Jeroboam miyte no more ayenstonde in the daies of Abia, whom the Lord smoot, and he was deed.

21 Men Abija te vin fò. Li te pran katòz madanm pou kont li, e li te devni papa a venn-de fis ak sèz fi.

Therfor Abia, whanne his empire was coumforted, took fourtene wyues, and he gendride two and twenti sones, and sixtene douytris.

22 Alò, tout lòt zèv Abija yo, avèk chemen pa li yo ekri nan memwa a pwofèt la, Iddo.

The residue of wordis of Abia and of his weyes and werkis, ben writun ful diligentli in the book of Abdo, the profete.
