2 Istwa 33

1 Manassé te gen laj douzan lè l te devni wa a, e li te renye pandan senkann-senkan Jérusalem.

Manasseh is a son of twelve years in his reigning, and he has 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 does evil in the eyes of YHWH, like the abominations of the nations that YHWH dispossessed from the presence of the sons 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 turns and builds the high places that his father Hezekiah has broken down, and raises altars for Ba‘alim, and makes Asherim, and bows himself to all the host of the heavens, and serves 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 has built altars in the house of YHWH of which YHWH had said, “My Name is in Jerusalem for all time.”

5 Paske li te bati lotèl pou tout lame syèl yo nan de lakou lakay SENYÈ yo.

And he builds altars for all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of YHWH.

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.

And he has caused his sons to pass over through fire in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, and observed clouds and used enchantments and witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and a wizard; he has multiplied to do evil in the eyes of YHWH, 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 places the carved image of the idol that he made in the house of God, of which God said to David, and to his son Solomon, “In this house, and in Jerusalem that I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I put My Name for all time,

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 do not add to turn aside the foot of Israel from off the ground that I appointed to your fathers, only, if they watch to do all that I have commanded them—to all the Law, and the statutes, and the ordinances 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.

And Manasseh causes Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, to do evil above the nations that YHWH destroyed from the presence of the sons of Israel.

10 SENYÈ a te pale ak Manassé avèk pèp li a, men yo pa t okipe sa menm.

And YHWH speaks to Manasseh and to his people, and they have not attended,

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 YHWH brings in against them the heads of the host that the king of Asshur has, and they capture Manasseh among the thickets, and bind him with bronze chains, and cause him to go 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 is in distress he has appeased the face of his God YHWH, and is exceedingly humbled 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 prays to Him, and He accepts his plea, and hears his supplication, and brings him back to Jerusalem, to his kingdom, and Manasseh knows that He, YHWH, [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 after this he has built an outer wall for the City of David, on the west of Gihon, in the valley, and at the entering in at the Fish Gate, and it has gone around to the tower, and he makes it exceedingly high, and he puts heads of the force in all the cities of the bulwarks in 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 turns aside the gods of the stranger, and the idol, out of the house of YHWH, and all the altars that he had built on the mountain of the house of YHWH and in Jerusalem, and casts [them] to the outside 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 builds the altar of YHWH, and sacrifices on it sacrifices of peace-offerings and thank-offering, and commands to Judah to serve YHWH, God of Israel;

17 Sepandan, pèp la te toujou fè sakrifis nan lye wo yo, men sèlman a SENYÈ Bondye pa yo a.

but still the people are sacrificing in high places, only—to their God YHWH.

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 matters of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the matters of the seers, those speaking to him in the Name of YHWH, God of Israel, behold, they are [on the scroll of] the matters 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 his plea, and all his sin, and his trespass, and the places in which he had built high places, and established the Asherim and the carved images before his being humbled, behold, they are written beside the matters 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 lies with his fathers, and they bury him in his own house, and his son Amon reigns in his stead.

21 Amon te gen laj a venn-dezan lè l te devni wa, e li te renye dezan Jérusalem.

Amon [is] a son of twenty-two years in his reigning, and he has 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 does evil in the eyes of YHWH, as his father Manasseh did, and Amon has sacrificed to all the carved images that his father Manasseh had made, and serves 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 has not been humbled before YHWH, like the humbling of his father Manasseh, for Amon himself has multiplied guilt.

24 Anfen, sèvitè li yo te fè konplo kont li, e te mete li a lanmò nan pwòp kay pa li.

And his servants conspire against him and put him to death 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.

and the people of the land strike all those conspiring against King Amon, and the people of the land cause his son Josiah to reign in his stead.
