< 2 Istwa 33 >
1 Manassé te gen laj douzan lè l te devni wa a, e li te renye pandan senkann-senkan Jérusalem.
Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
2 Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a, selon abominasyon yo a nasyon an ke SENYÈ a te chase deyò devan fis Israël yo.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord destroyed from before the face of the children of Israel.
3 Paske li te rebati wo plas ke Ézéchias, papa li te kraze yo. Anplis, li te monte lotèl pou Baal yo. Li te fè Asherim yo, e li te adore tout lame syèl yo e te sèvi yo.
And he returned and built the high places, which his father Ezekias had pulled down, and set up images to Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
4 Li te bati lotèl lakay SENYÈ a sou sila yo SENYÈ a te di: “Se non Mwen k ap nan Jérusalem jis pou tout tan an.”
And he built altars in the house of the Lord, concerning which the Lord said, In Jerusalem shall be my name for ever.
5 Paske li te bati lotèl pou tout lame syèl yo nan de lakou lakay SENYÈ yo.
And he built altars to all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
6 Anplis, li te fè fis li yo pase nan dife nan vale Ben-Hinnom, epi li te pratike vye maji, divinasyon, fè wanga e li te fè angajman avèk sila ki pale ak mò yo ak divinò yo. Li te fè anpil mal nan zye SENYÈ a ki te pwovoke Li a lakòlè.
He also passed his children through the fire in the valley of Benennom; and he divined, and used auspices, and sorceries, and appointed those who had divining spirits, and enchanters, and wrought abundant wickedness before the Lord, to provoke him.
7 Li te mete imaj taye ke li te fè lakay Bondye a, sou sila Bondye te di a David ak Salomon, fis li a: “Nan kay sila a ak nan Jérusalem, ke Mwen te chwazi soti nan tout tribi Israël yo, Mwen va mete non Mwen jis pou tout tan.
And he set the graven [image], the molten [statue], the idol which he made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name for ever;
8 Mwen p ap retire ankò pye Israël soti nan peyi ke Mwen te chwazi pou papa zansèt nou yo, si sèlman yo va obsève pou fè tout sa ke M te kòmande yo pa tout lalwa, règleman avèk òdonans ki te bay pa Moïse yo.”
and I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I gave to their fathers, if only they will take heed to do all things which I have commanded them, according to all the law and the ordinances and the judgments [given] by the hand of Moses.
9 Konsa, Manassé te egare Juda ak pèp Jérusalem nan pou fè plis mal pase menm nasyon ke SENYÈ a te detwi devan fis Israël yo.
So Manasses led astray Juda and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to do evil beyond all the nations which the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.
10 SENYÈ a te pale ak Manassé avèk pèp li a, men yo pa t okipe sa menm.
And the Lord spoke to Manasses, and to his people: but they hearkened not.
11 Pou sa, SENYÈ a te fè chèf a lame wa Assyrie yo vin parèt kont yo. Yo te kaptire Manassé e te mete l an chenn yo. Yo te mete chenn an bwonz sou pye l, e te mennen li Babylone.
And the Lord brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, and they took Manasses in bonds, and bound him in fetters, and brought him to Babylon.
12 Pandan li te nan gwo twoub, li te sipliye SENYÈ a, Bondye pa li a, devan Bondye a zansèt li yo.
And when he was afflicted, he sought the face of the Lord his God, and was greatly humbled before the face of the God of his fathers;
13 Lè li te priye a Li menm, Li te touche pa priyè li a. Konsa, Li te tande siplikasyon li an, e te mennen li ankò Jérusalem kote wayòm li an. Konsa, Manassé te konnen ke SENYÈ a te Bondye.
and he prayed to him: and he hearkened to him, and listened to his cry, and brought him back to Jerusalem to his kingdom: and Manasses knew that the Lord he is God.
14 Alò, apre sa li te bati miray deyò lavil David la sou kote lwès a Guihon, nan vale a, menm pou rive nan antre Pòtay Pwason an. Li te antoure Ophel la avèk li, e te fè li byen wo, epi li te mete chèf lame yo nan tout vil fòtifye Juda yo.
And afterward he built a wall without the city of David, from the southwest southward in the valleys and at the entrance through the fish-gate, as men go out by the gate round about, even as far as Opel: and he raised it much, and set captains of the host in all the fortified cities in Juda.
15 Anplis, li te retire dye etranje yo avèk zidòl yo soti lakay SENYÈ a. Tout lotèl ke li te bati sou mòn lakay SENYÈ a ak nan Jérusalem yo, li te jete yo deyò lavil la.
And he removed the strange gods, and the graven [image] out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars which he had built in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and without the city.
16 Li te monte lotèl SENYÈ a, e te fè sakrifis ofrann lapè avèk ofrann remèsiman sou li; epi li te kòmande Juda pou sèvi SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la.
And he repaired the altar of the Lord, and offered upon it a sacrifice of peace-offering and thank-offering, and he told Juda to serve the Lord God of Israel.
17 Sepandan, pèp la te toujou fè sakrifis nan lye wo yo, men sèlman a SENYÈ Bondye pa yo a.
Nevertheless the people still sacrificed on the high places, only to the Lord their God.
18 Alò, tout lòt zèv Manassé yo, menm lapriyè li a Bondye pa li a, ak pawòl a divinè yo ki te pale avèk li nan non SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, men gade, yo pami achiv a wa Israël yo.
And the rest of the acts of Manasses, and his prayer to God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the God of Israel,
19 Anplis lapriyè li, jan li te sipliye Bondye a, ak tout peche li yo, enfidelite li ak landwa ke li te bati wo plas pou te fè monte Asherim yo, ak imaj taye yo, avan li te vin imilye li menm, gade, yo tout ekri nan achiv a Hozaï yo.
behold, [they are] in the account of his prayer; and [God] hearkened to him. And all his sins, and his backslidings, and the spots on which he built the high places, and set there groves and graven images, before he repented, behold, they are written in the books of the seers.
20 Konsa, Manassé te dòmi avèk papa zansèt li yo, e yo te antere li nan pwòp kay li. Epi Amon, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
And Manasses slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the garden of his house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
21 Amon te gen laj a venn-dezan lè l te devni wa, e li te renye dezan Jérusalem.
Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
22 Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a tankou Manassé, papa li, te konn fè a, e Amon te fè sakrifis a tout imaj taye ke papa li, Manassé te fè yo, e li te sèvi yo.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his father Manasses did: and Amon sacrificed to all the idols which his father Manasses had made, and served them.
23 Anplis, li pa t imilye li menm devan SENYÈ a jan papa li, Manassé te fè a, men Amon te ogmante koupabilite li.
And he was not humbled before the Lord as his father Manasses was humbled; for his son Amon abounded in transgression.
24 Anfen, sèvitè li yo te fè konplo kont li, e te mete li a lanmò nan pwòp kay pa li.
And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his house.
25 Men pèp peyi a te touye tout sila ki te fè konplo a kont Wa Amon yo, e pèp peyi a te fè Josias, fis li a, wa nan plas li.
And the people of the land slew the men who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josias his son king in his stead.
