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 finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
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.
And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priest and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt-offerings and for peace-offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of the LORD.
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.
He appointed also the king's portion of his substance for the burnt-offerings, to wit, for the morning and evening burnt-offerings, and the burnt-offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the appointed seasons, as it is written 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.
Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to 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 as soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first-fruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
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, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of hallowed things which were hallowed unto the LORD their God, and laid them by heaps.
7 Nan twazyèm mwa a, yo te kòmanse fè pil yo e te fin fè yo nan setyèm mwa a.
In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
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 princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the LORD, and His people Israel.
9 Epi Ézéchias te kesyone prèt yo avèk Levit yo sou gwo pil yo.
Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
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 house of Zadok, answered him and said: 'Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the LORD, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty; for the LORD hath blessed His people; and that which is left is this great store.'
11 Epi Ézéchias te kòmande yo pou prepare chanm lakay SENYÈ a e yo te prepare yo.
Then Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of the LORD; and they prepared them.
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 they brought in the offerings and the tithes and the hallowed things faithfully; and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.
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 hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment 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 porter at the east gate, was over the freewill-offerings of God, to distribute 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, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brethren by courses, as well to the great as to the small;
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;
beside them that were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even every one that entered into the house of the LORD, for his daily portion, for their service in their charges according to their courses;
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 them that were reckoned by genealogy of the priests by their fathers' houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their charges by their courses;
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.
even to give to them that were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation; for in their office of trust they administered the sacred gifts;
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.
also for the sons of Aaron the priests, that were in the fields of the open land about their cities, in every city, there were men that were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all that were reckoned by genealogy 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.
And thus did Hezekiah throughout all Judah; and he wrought that which was good and right and faithful 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 in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
