2 Wa 15

1 Nan venn-setyèm ane a Jéroboam, wa Israël la, Azaria, fis a Amatsia a, wa Juda a, te devni wa.

In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam, the king of Israel: Azariah, the son of Amaziah, reigned as king of Judah.

2 Li te gen laj sèzan lè li te devni wa e li te renye pandan senkann-dezan Jérusalem. Non manman l se te Jecolia, moun Jérusalem.

He was sixteen years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for fifty-two years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.

3 Azaria te fè sa ki bon nan zye SENYÈ a, selon tout sa ke papa li, Amatsia te fè.

And he did what was pleasing before the Lord, in accord with all that his father, Amaziah, did.

4 Sèlman wo plas yo ki pa t retire. Pèp la te toujou fè sakrifis e brile lansan sou wo plas yo.

Yet truly, he did not demolish the high places. And still the people were sacrificing, and burning incense, in the high places.

5 SENYÈ a te frape wa a pou l te gen yon lalèp jis rive jou ke li te mouri an. Epi li te viv nan yon kay apa pandan fis a wa a, Jotham te nan kay la, e t ap jije pèp peyi a.

Now the Lord struck the king, and he became a leper, even until the day of his death. And he was living in a separate house by himself. And truly, Jotham, the son of the king, governed the palace, and he judged the people of the land.

6 Alò, tout lòt zèv a Azaria yo avèk tout sa ke li te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa A Juda yo?

Now the rest of the words of Azariah, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?

7 Epi Azaria te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo. Yo te antere li avèk papa li nan vil David la, e Jotham, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.

And Azariah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his ancestors in the city of David. And Jotham, his son, reigned in his place.

In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah, the king of Judah: Zechariah, the son of Jeroboam, reigned over Israel, in Samaria, for six months.

9 Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a tankou zansèt li yo te fè. Li pa t kite peche a Jéroboam yo, fis a Nebath la, avèk sila li te fè Israël peche yo.

And he did what is evil before the Lord, just as his fathers had done. He did not withdraw from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin.

10 Epi Schallum, fis a Jabesch la, te fè konplo kont li e te frape li devan pèp la pou te touye li e renye nan plas li.

Then Shallum, the son of Jabesh, conspired against him. And he struck him openly, and killed him. And he reigned in his place.

Now the rest of the words of Zechariah, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

This was the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Jehu, saying: “Your sons, even to the fourth generation, shall sit upon the throne of Israel.” And so it happened.

And Menahem, the son of Gadi, ascended from Tirzah. And he went into Samaria, and he struck Shallum, the son of Jabesh, in Samaria. And he killed him, and reigned in his place.

Now the rest of the words of Shallum, and his conspiracy, by which he carried out treachery, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

16 Epi Menahem te frape Thiphsach avèk tout moun ladann avèk lizyè li yo soti Thirtsa, akoz yo pa t ouvri pou li; pou sa, li te frape li e chire tout fanm li yo ki te ansent.

Then Menahem struck Tirzah, and all who were in it, and its borders around Tirzah. For they were not willing to open to him. And he killed all of its pregnant women, and he tore them open.

Then Pul, the king of the Assyrians, came into the land. And Menahem gave Pul one thousand talents of silver, so that he would be a help to him, and so that he might strengthen his kingdom.

20 Alò, Menahem te egzije lajan an nan men Israël, menm a tout mesye enpòtan avèk mwayen, soti nan chak moun senkant sik ajan pou peye wa Assyrie a. Konsa, wa Assyrie a te retounen e pa t rete la nan peyi a.

And Menahem proclaimed a tax upon Israel, on all who were powerful and wealthy, so that each one would give to the king of the Assyrians fifty shekels of silver. Then the king of the Assyrians turned back, and he did not remain in the land.

21 Alò, tout rès zak a Menahem yo avèk tout sa ke li te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Israël Yo?

Now the rest of the words of Menahem, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

Then Pekah, the son of Remaliah, his commander, conspired against him. And he struck him in Samaria, in the tower of the king’s house, near Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men from the sons of the Gileadites. And he killed him, and reigned in his place.
