< 2 Istwa 33 >
1 Manassé te gen laj douzan lè l te devni wa a, e li te renye pandan senkann-senkan Jérusalem.
Manasseh 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 evil in the sight of Jehovah, like the abominations of the nations that Jehovah had dispossessed from before 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 built again the high places that Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars to the Baals, and made Asherahs, 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 Jehovah, of which Jehovah had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be 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 both courts of the house of Jehovah.
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 caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he used magic and divination and sorcery, and appointed necromancers and soothsayers: he wrought evil beyond measure in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.
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 of the idol that he had made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I 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.”
neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of the land that I have appointed to your fathers; if they will only take heed to do all that I commanded them through Moses, according to all the law and the statutes and the ordinances.
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.
And Manasseh led Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem astray, to do more evil than the nations that Jehovah had destroyed 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 Jehovah spoke to Manasseh and to his people; but they did not hearken.
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 Jehovah brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh with fetters, and bound him with chains of brass, and carried 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 in affliction, he besought Jehovah his God, and humbled himself greatly before 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 prayed to him. And he was intreated of him and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Jehovah, he was 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 after this he built the outer wall of the city of David, on the west, toward Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance of the fish-gate, and carried it round Ophel, and raised it up a very great height; and he put captains of war in all the fortified cities of Judah.
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 idol out of the house of Jehovah, and all the altars that he had built on the mount of the house of Jehovah and in Jerusalem, and cast [them] out of 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 reinstated the altar of Jehovah, and sacrificed on it peace-offerings and thank-offerings, and commanded Judah to serve Jehovah the 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 sacrificed still on the high places, although to Jehovah their God only.
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 Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of Jehovah the God of Israel, behold, they [are written] in the acts of the kings 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.
And his prayer, and [how God] was intreated of him, and all his sin and his unfaithfulness, and the places in which he built high places, and set up Asherahs and graven images, before he was humbled, behold, they are written among the words of Hozai.
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 Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own 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-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 evil in the sight of Jehovah, as Manasseh his father had done; and Amon sacrificed to all the graven images that Manasseh his father 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 did not humble himself before Jehovah, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; for he, Amon, multiplied trespass.
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 own 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.
But the people of the land smote all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
