2 Istwa 15

1 Alò, Lespri Bondye a te vini sou Azaria, fis a Obed la.

And Azariah [the] son of Oded it was on him [the] spirit of God.

2 Li te sòti deyò pou rankontre Asa e li te di li: “Koute mwen, Asa e tout Juda avèk Benjamin: SENYÈ a avèk nou lè nou avèk Li. Epi si ou chache Li, Li va kite ou jwenn Li; men si ou abandone Li, Li va abandone ou.

And he went out before Asa and he said to him listen to me O Asa and all Judah and Benjamin Yahweh [is] with you when are you with him and if you will seek him he will let himself be found by you and if you will forsake him he will forsake you.

3 Pandan anpil jou, Israël te kon san vrè Bondye a, san enstriksyon, san prèt e san lalwa.

And days many [belonged] to Israel to not - [the] God of truth and to not a priest [who] teaches and to not [the] law.

4 Men nan gran twoub yo, yo te vire kote SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la. Yo te chache Li e yo te jwenn Li.

And it turned back when it was distress to it to Yahweh [the] God of Israel and they sought him and he let himself be found by them.

5 Nan tan sa yo, pa t gen lapè pou sila ki sòti, ni sila ki antre a, paske anpil gwo zen te twouble tout moun ki te rete nan peyi yo.

And in the times those not peace [belonged] to the [one who] went out and to the [one who] came in for disturbances great [were] on all [the] inhabitants of the lands.

6 Nasyon te kraze pa nasyon, vil pa vil, paske Bondye te twouble yo avèk tout kalite gwo twoub.

And they were crushed nation by nation and city by city for God he troubled them with every trouble.

7 Men nou menm, kenbe fèm e pa pèdi kouraj, paske gen rekonpans pou travay nou yo.”

And you be strong and may not they drop hands your for there [is] reward for work your.

8 Lè Asa te tande pawòl sila yo avèk pwofesi ke Azaria, fis a Obed la, te pale a, li te pran kouraj, e li te retire zidòl abominab yo soti nan tout peyi Juda avèk Benjamin yo, ak nan vil ke li te kaptire nan peyi kolin Éphraïm yo. Lè l fini, li te restore lotèl SENYÈ a ki te devan galri SENYÈ a.

And just as heard Asa the words these and the prophecy of (Azariah [the] son of *X*) Oded the prophet he strengthened himself and he took away the detestable things from all [the] land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities which he had captured from [the] hill country of Ephraim and he renewed [the] altar of Yahweh which [was] before [the] porch of Yahweh.

9 Li te rasanble tout Juda avèk Benjamin avèk tout sila ki te sòti Éphraïm, Manassé ak Siméon yo, ki te rete avèk yo, paske anpil nan yo te vin jwenn li soti an Israël lè yo te wè ke SENYÈ a, Bondye a, te avèk li.

And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin and those [who] sojourned with them from Ephraim and Manasseh and from Simeon for they had fallen on him from Israel to multitude when saw they that Yahweh God his [was] with him.

10 Konsa, yo te rasanble Jérusalem nan twazyèm mwa, nan kenzyèm ane, nan règn Asa a.

And they gathered together Jerusalem in the month third of year fif-teen of [the] reign of Asa.

11 Yo te fè sakrifis bay SENYÈ a nan jou sa a, sèt-san bèf avèk sèt-mil mouton soti nan piyaj ke yo te pote a.

And they sacrificed to Yahweh on the day that some of the booty [which] they had brought ox[en] seven hundred and sheep seven thousand.

12 Yo te antre nan akò pou chache SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt pa yo a, avèk tout kè yo ak nanm yo;

And they went in the covenant to seek Yahweh [the] God of ancestors their with all heart their and with all being their.

13 epi ke nenpòt moun ki te refize chache SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, ta dwe mete a lanmò, piti kon gran, gason kon fanm.

And every [one] who not he will seek Yahweh [the] God of Israel he will be put to death from small and unto great from man and unto woman.

14 Anplis, yo te fè yon sèman bay SENYÈ avèk yon gwo kri, avèk twonpèt e avèk ti twonpèt wo vwa a.

And they swore an oath to Yahweh with a voice great and with a shout and with trumpets and with ram's horns.

15 Tout Juda te rejwi akoz sèman an, paske yo te sèmante avèk tout kè yo. Yo te chache Li ak kè onèt yo, e Li te kite yo jwenn Li. Konsa, SENYÈ a te ba yo repo tout kote.

And they rejoiced all Judah on the oath for with all heart their they had sworn and with all will their they had sought him and he let himself be found by them and he gave rest Yahweh to them from round about.

16 Anplis, li te retire Maaca, manman a Wa Asa a, nan pozisyon rèn nan, akoz li te fè imaj li byen abominab tankou yon Astarté, e Asa te fè koupe imaj abominab li a. Li te kraze li, e li brile li nan flèv Cédron an.

And also Maacah [the] mother of - Asa the king he removed her from queen-mother who she had made to an Asherah pole an abominable image and he cut down Asa abominable image her and he crushed [it] and he burned [it] in [the] wadi of Kidron.

17 Men wo plas yo pat retire soti an Israël; sepandan, kè Asa te san repwòch pandan tout jou li yo.

And the high places not they were removed from Israel only [the] heart of Asa it was complete all days his.

18 Li te pote lakay SENYÈ a tout bagay dedye ki te pou papa li ak bagay dedye ki te pou li yo: ajan avèk lò avèk zouti.

And he brought [the] holy things of father his and own holy things his [the] house of God silver and gold and utensils.

19 Epi pa t gen lagè ankò jis rive nan trann-senk ane règn a Asa a.

And war not it was until year thirty and five of [the] reign of Asa.
