2 Wa 12
1 Nan setyèm ane Jéhu, Joas te vin wa a, e li te renye karantan Jérusalem. Non manman li te Tsibja nan Beer-Schéba.
In the seventh year of Jehu, Jehoash began to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
2 Joas te fè sa ki bon nan zye SENYÈ a pandan tout jou li yo depi Jehojada, prèt la, te enstwi li.
And Jehoash did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, all the days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
3 Sèlman, wo plas yo pa t retire. Pèp la te toujou fè sakrifis e te brile lansan sou wo plas yo.
Only, the high places were not removed: the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
4 Alò, Joas te di a prèt yo: “Tout lajan de afè konsakre yo, ki pote antre nan kay SENYÈ a, nan lajan aktyèl la, lajan ranmase kòm devwa a chak mesye ak tout sa ke kè a yon moun ta pouse li pote lakay SENYÈ a;
And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the hallowed things that is brought into the house of Jehovah, the money of every one that passes [the account], the money at which every man is valued, [and] all the money that comes into any man's heart to bring into the house of Jehovah,
5 kite prèt yo pran li pou yo menm, yo chak nan men a moun yo konnen. Epi yo va sèvi li pou repare donmaj nan kay la, nenpòt kote yon donmaj ta twouve.”
let the priests take it, every man of his acquaintance; and let them repair the breaches of the house, wherever any breach is found.
6 Men li vin rive ke nan venn-twazan pouvwa a Wa Joas la, prèt yo pa t ankò repare donmaj kay la.
And it was [so that] in the twenty-third year of king Jehoash, the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
7 Alò, Joas te rele Jehojada, prèt la ak lòt prèt yo, e li te pale yo konsa: “Poukisa ou pa repare donmaj kay la? Alò, pou koz sa a, pa pran kòb ankò nan men moun pa w yo, men pito livre li pou repare donmaj kay la.”
Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the priests, and said to them, Why have ye not repaired the breaches of the house? And now receive no money of your acquaintances, but give it for the breaches of the house.
8 Pou sa, prèt yo te dakò pou yo pa t pran lajan nan men pèp la, ni fè reparasyon kay la.
And the priests consented to receive no money of the people, and that they should only repair the breaches of the house.
9 Men Jehojada, prèt la te pran yon kès sere e te pèse yon twou nan tèt bwat la e te mete li akote lotèl la sou kote dwat kote moun antre nan kay SENYÈ a. Epi prèt ki te veye kote papòt la, te mete ladann tout lajan ki te mennen nan kay SENYÈ a.
And Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one comes into the house of Jehovah; and the priests that kept the door put into it all the money brought into the house of Jehovah.
10 Lè yo te wè ke anpil lajan te nan kès la, grefye a wa a avèk wo prèt la te vin monte, te mare li nan sak yo e te konte lajan ki te twouve nan kay SENYÈ a.
And it came to pass when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they tied up and counted the money that was found in the house of Jehovah.
11 Yo te bay lajan ki te peze a, mete nan men a sila ki t ap fè travay yo, ki te responsab nan kay SENYÈ a. Konsa, yo menm te vèse bay li kòm pèyman a chapant avèk ouvriye ki t ap fè zèv travay la nan kay SENYÈ a.
And they gave the money, weighed out into the hands of them that did the work, who were appointed over the house of Jehovah; and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders that wrought upon the house of Jehovah,
12 Anplis yo te bay a mason yo avèk sila ki t ap taye wòch yo, pou achte gwo bwa avèk wòch taye pou repare donmaj kay SENYÈ a ak tout sa ki te dispoze pou reparasyon li an.
and to masons, and hewers of stone, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the breaches of the house of Jehovah, and for all that had to be laid out on the house for repairs.
13 Men yo pa t fè pou lakay SENYÈ a, anyen an ajan, tas yo, etennwa yo, bòl yo, twonpèt yo, ni veso an lò yo, ni veso an ajan yo avèk lajan ki te mennen antre lakay SENYÈ a;
However there were not made for the house of Jehovah basons of silver, knives, bowls, trumpets, nor any utensil of gold or utensil of silver, of the money that was brought [into] the house of Jehovah;
14 paske yo te bay lajan sa a a sila ki te fè travay yo, e avèk li yo te repare lakay SENYÈ a.
but they gave that to the workmen, and repaired the house of Jehovah with it.
15 Anplis, yo pa t egzije yon kontwòl kontab nan men mesye ke yo te mete lajan pou peye sila ki te fè travay yo, paske yo te fidèl.
And they did not reckon with the men into whose hand they gave the money to be bestowed on workmen; for they dealt faithfully.
16 Lajan ofrann koupab la avèk lajan ofrann peche a pa t antre lakay SENYÈ a. Li te pou prèt yo.
The money of trespass-offerings, and the money of sin-offerings, was not brought into the house of Jehovah: it was for the priests.
17 Alò, Hazaël, wa Syrie a, te monte goumen kont Gath e te kaptire li. Konsa, Hazaël te mete figi li vè Jérusalem.
Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it. And Hazael set his face to go up against Jerusalem.
18 Joas, wa Juda a, te pran tout bagay sen ke Josaphat, Joram, ak Achazia, zansèt li yo te konsakre yo ak afè sen pa li yo ak tout lò ki te twouve pami trezò lakay SENYÈ a e li te voye yo bay wa Hazaël, wa Syrie a. Epi Hazaël te kite Jérusalem.
And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold found in the treasures of the house of Jehovah and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria; and he went away from Jerusalem.
19 Alò, tout lòt zèv a Joas yo avèk tout sa li te fè, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Juda yo?
And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
20 Sèvitè li yo te leve fè yon konplo e te frape Joas lakay Millo a pandan li t ap desann kite Silla.
And his servants rose up and made a conspiracy, and smote Joash in the house of Millo, at the descent of Silla.
21 Paske Jozabad, fis a Shomer a, avèk Yehozabad, fis a Schimeath a, sèvitè li yo, te frape li e li te mouri. Yo te antere li avèk zansèt li yo nan vil David la e Amatsia, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
And Jozachar the son of Shimeath and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote him and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
