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 forty years reigned he 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 [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD all his 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.
But the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in 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 dedicated things that is brought into the house of the LORD, [even] the money of every one that passeth [the account], the money that every man is set at, [and] all the money that cometh into any man's heart to bring into the house of the LORD,
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] to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the breaches of the house, wherever any breach shall be found.
6 Men li vin rive ke nan venn-twazan pouvwa a Wa Joas la, prèt yo pa t ankò repare donmaj kay la.
But it was [so], [that] in the three and twentieth 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 [other] priests, and said to them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no [more] money of your acquaintance, but deliver 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 [more] money of the people, neither to 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.
But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put in it all the money [that was] brought into the house of the LORD.
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 was [so], when they saw that [there was] much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and counted the money [that was] found in the house of the LORD.
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, being counted, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the LORD: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of the LORD,
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 hewed stone to repair the breaches of the house of the LORD, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair [it].
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;
Yet, there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers, basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money [that was] brought into the house of the LORD:
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 with it the house of the LORD.
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.
Moreover, they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered 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 trespass-money and sin-money was not brought into the house of the LORD: it was 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 to 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 [that was] found in the treasures of the house of the LORD, 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 arose, and made a conspiracy, and slew Joash in the house of Millo, which goeth down to 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.
For 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.
