2 Istwa 31
1 Alò, lè tout sa te fini, tout Israël ki te prezan te sòti antre nan vil Juda yo. Yo te kraze pilye Asherim yo an mòso, yo te koupe poto Asherim yo, e te rale fè desann wo plas yo avèk lotèl yo pami tout Juda avèk Benjamin e anplis, nan Éphraïm avèk Manassé, jiskaske yo te detwi yo tout. Epi tout fis Israël yo te retounen nan vil pa yo, yo chak nan posesyon pa yo.
Now when all this was over, all the men of Israel who were present went out into the towns of Judah, causing the stone pillars to be broken up and the wood pillars to be cut down, pulling down the high places and the altars in all Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, till all were gone. Then all the children of Israel went back to their towns, every man to his property.
2 Konsa, Ézéchias te apwente divizyon a prèt yo ak Levit yo pa divizyon pa yo, yo chak selon sèvis pa yo, prèt yo avèk Levit yo pou ofrann brile avèk ofrann lapè yo, pou fè sèvis e bay remèsiman avèk lwanj nan pòtay kan SENYÈ a.
Then Hezekiah put in order the divisions of the priests and Levites, every man in his division, in relation to his work, for the burned offerings and peace-offerings, and for the ordering of worship and for giving praise at the doors of the Lord's house.
3 Li te etabli osi pòsyon wa a nan byen pa li pou ofrann brile yo, pou ofrann maten avèk aswè a, ofrann brile pou Saba yo, pou nouvèl lin yo e pou fèt etabli yo, jan sa ekri nan lalwa SENYÈ a.
And he gave the king's part of his private property for the burned offerings, that is, for the morning and evening offerings, and the offerings for the Sabbath and the new moons and the regular feasts, as it is recorded in the law of the Lord.
4 Anplis, li te kòmande moun ki te rete Jérusalem yo pou bay pòsyon ki te dwa a prèt yo avèk Levit yo, pou yo ta kapab dedye pwòp tèt yo a lalwa SENYÈ a.
In addition, he gave orders to the people of Jerusalem to give to the priests and Levites that part which was theirs by right, so that they might be strong in keeping the law of the Lord.
5 Depi lòd la te fin gaye, fis Israël yo te mete disponib an abondans, premye fwi nan sereyal yo, diven nèf, lwil, siwo myèl ak tout pwodwi chan an; epi yo te pote an abondans dim nan de tout bagay.
And when the order was made public, straight away the children of Israel gave, in great amounts, the first-fruits of their grain and wine and oil and honey, and of the produce of their fields; and they took in a tenth part of everything, a great store.
6 Fis a Israël avèk Juda ki te rete lavil Juda yo, anplis, te pote fè antre dim nan bèf avèk mouton yo, e dim nan don sen ki te konsakre a SENYÈ a, Bondye pa yo a, e te plase yo nan gwo pil yo.
And the children of Israel and Judah, who were living in the towns of Judah came with the tenth part of their oxen and sheep, and a tenth of all the holy things which were to be given to the Lord their God, and put them in great masses.
7 Nan twazyèm mwa a, yo te kòmanse fè pil yo e te fin fè yo nan setyèm mwa a.
The first store of things was put down in the third month, and in the seventh month the masses were complete.
8 Lè Ézéchias avèk chèf yo te vin wè gwo pil yo, yo te beni SENYÈ a avèk pèp Israël Li a.
And when Hezekiah and the rulers came and saw all the store of goods, they gave praise to the Lord and to his people Israel.
9 Epi Ézéchias te kesyone prèt yo avèk Levit yo sou gwo pil yo.
Then Hezekiah put questions to the priests and Levites about the store of goods.
10 Azaria, chèf prèt lakay Tsadok la te di li: “Depi don yo te kòmanse antre lakay SENYÈ a, nou te gen kont pou nou manje avèk anpil ki te rete, paske SENYÈ a te beni pèp Li a, e gran kantite sila a rete toujou.”
And Azariah, the chief priest, of the family of Zadok, said in answer, From the time when the people first came with their offerings into the house of the Lord, we have had food enough, and more than enough: for the blessing of the Lord is on his people; and there is this great store which has not been used.
11 Epi Ézéchias te kòmande yo pou prepare chanm lakay SENYÈ a e yo te prepare yo.
Then Hezekiah said that store-rooms were to be made ready in the house of the Lord; and this was done.
12 Yo te byen fidèl nan pote dim avèk ofrann avèk bagay konsakre yo. Epi Conania, Levit la, te ofisye an chaj sou yo, e frè l, Schimeï te dezyèm nan.
And in them they put all the offerings and the tenths and the holy things, keeping nothing back, and over them was Conaniah the Levite, with Shimei his brother second to him.
13 Jehiel, Azazia, Nachath, Asaël, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Éliel, Jismakia, Machath avèk Benaja te anplwaye anba direksyon Conania avèk frè l, Schimeï, selon chwa Wa Ézéchias yo, e Azaria te ofisye prensipal lakay Bondye a.
And Jehiel and Azaziah and Nahath and Asahel and Jerimoth and Jozabad and Eliel and Ismachiah and Mahath and Benaiah were overseers, under the directions of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the order of Hezekiah the king and Azariah, the ruler of the house of God.
14 Koré, fis a Jimna a, Levit la, gadyen pòtay lès la, te chèf sou ofrann bòn volonte a Bondye yo, pou fè distribisyon don pou SENYÈ a avèk bagay ki sen pase tout lòt bagay yo.
And Kore, the son of Imnah the Levite, the keeper of the east door, had control of the offerings freely given to God, and the distribution of the offerings of the Lord and the most holy things.
15 Anba otorite li, te gen Éden, Minjamin, Josué, Schemaeja, Amaria ak Schecania, nan vil prèt yo pou separe, fidèlman, bay frè pa yo pa divizyon yo, piti kon gran,
And under him were Eden and Miniamin and Jeshua and Shemaiah and Amariah and Shecaniah, in the towns of the priests, who were made responsible for giving it to all their brothers, by divisions, to small and great:
16 anplis de sa yo ki te sou chif zansèt yo, pou gason soti nan laj trantan oswa plis yo—tout moun ki te antre lakay SENYÈ a kòm obligasyon chak jou yo—pou travay nan devwa yo selon divizyon yo;
As well as to all the males, of three years old and over, listed by their families, who went into the house of the Lord to do what was needed day by day, for their special work with their divisions.
17 ansanm ak prèt ki te anrejistre pa zansèt yo selon lakay papa zansèt pa yo, e Levit yo soti nan laj a ventan oswa plis, selon devwa yo ak divizyon yo.
And the families of the priests were listed by their fathers' names, but the Levites, of twenty years old and over, were listed in relation to their work in their divisions;
18 Anrejistreman pa zansèt yo te kontwole tout timoun yo, madanm yo, fis yo ak fi yo, pou tout asanble a, paske yo te konsakre yo menm, fidèlman, nan sentete.
And in the lists were all their little ones and their wives and their sons and daughters, through all the people: they made themselves holy in the positions which they were given.
19 Anplis, pou fis a Aaron yo, prèt yo, ki te nan teren patiraj lavil yo, oswa nan chak vil menm, te gen mesye ki te dezinye pa non pou fè distribisyon pòsyon a chak gason pami prèt yo e chak ki te anrejistre pa zansèt li yo pami Levit yo.
And as for the sons of Aaron, the priests, living in the country on the outskirts of their towns, every different town there were men, marked out by name, to give their part of the goods to all the males among the priests, and to all who were listed among the Levites.
20 Konsa, Ézéchias te fè patou nan tout Juda; epi li te fè sa ki te bon e dwat devan SENYÈ a, Bondye li a.
This Hezekiah did through all Judah; he did what was good and right and true before the Lord his God.
21 Tout èv ke li te kòmanse fè nan sèvis lakay Bondye a, nan lalwa avèk kòmandman an, nan chache Bondye li a, li te fè yo avèk tout kè li, e li te byen reyisi.
And for everything he undertook, in connection with the work of the house of God and his law and orders, he got directions from God and did it with serious purpose; and things went well for him.
