2 Wa 20

1 Nan jou sa yo, Ézéchias te vin malad jis rive nan pòt lanmò. Epi Ésaïe, pwofèt la, fis a Amots la, te vin kote li e te di li: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, ‘Mete lakay ou an lòd; paske ou va mouri e ou p ap viv.’”

In those days was Hezekiah sick to death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thy house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.

2 Konsa, Ézéchias te vire figi li vè miray la pou te priye a SENYÈ a. Li te di:

Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the LORD, saying,

3 “Sonje koulye a, O SENYÈ a, mwen sipliye Ou, jan mwen te mache devan Ou anverite avèk tout kè m nan, ak jan mwen te fè sa ki bon nan zye Ou a.” Epi Ézéchias te kriye byen anmè.

I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done [that which is] good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept grievously.

4 Avan Ésaïe te sòti nan mitan vil a, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote li. Li te di:

And it came to pass, before Isaiah had gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

5 “Retounen pale ak Ézéchias, dirijan pèp mwen an: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt ou a, David: “Mwen te tande lapriyè pa w la. Mwen te wè dlo ki sòti nan zye ou a. Men vwala, Mwen va geri ou. Nan twazyèm jou a, ou va monte lakay SENYÈ a.

Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up to the house of the LORD.

6 Mwen va mete kenzan sou lavi ou e mwen va delivre ou avèk vil sa a soti nan men a wa Assyrie. Mwen va defann vil sa a pou koz pa Mwen ak pou koz David, sèvitè Mwen an.”’”

And I will add to thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for my own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

7 Konsa, Ésaïe te di: “Pran yon gato figye etranje.” Yo te pran l e te mete li sou apse a, e li te vin refè.

And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid [it] on the boil, and he recovered.

8 Alò, Ézéchias te di a Ésaïe: “Ki sign ki va parèt ke SENYÈ a va geri mwen, e ke mwen va monte lakay SENYÈ a nan twazyèm jou a?”

And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, What [shall be] the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day?

9 Ésaïe te di: “Sa va sign a ou menm soti nan SENYÈ a, ke SENYÈ a va fè bagay ke li te pale a: èske ou pito lonbraj la avanse dis pa, oswa fè bak dis pa?”

And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?

10 Alò, Ézéchias te reponn: “Li tèlman fasil pou lonbraj la avanse dis pa. Men non, kite li fè bak dis pa.”

And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go forward ten degrees: no, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.

11 Ésaïe, pwofèt la, te kriye a SENYÈ a, e Li te fè lonbraj la fè bak dis pa sou eskalye a sou sila li te avanse nan eskalye Achaz la.

And Isaiah the prophet cried to the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down on the dial of Ahaz.

12 Nan tan sa a, Berodac-Baladan, fis a Baladan nan, wa Babylone nan, te voye lèt avèk yon kado bay Ézéchias, paske li te tande ke Ézéchias te konn malad.

At that time Berodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.

13 Ézéchias te koute yo e montre yo tout kay trezò li a, ajan avèk lò, epis avèk lwil presye, lakay boukliye li yo avèk tout sa ki te konn twouve nan trezò li yo. Pa t gen anyen lakay li ni nan tout wayòm li a ke li pa t montre yo.

And Hezekiah hearkened to them, and showed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and [all] the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah showed them not.

14 Alò, pwofèt la, Ésaïe, te vin kote Ézéchias. Li te mande li: “Kisa mesye sila yo te di e depi kibò yo sòti pou rive kote ou a?” Epi Ézéchias te di: “Yo sòti nan yon peyi lwen, nan Babylone.”

Then came Isaiah the prophet to king Hezekiah, and said to him, What said these men? and from whence came they to thee? And Hezekiah said, They have come from a far country [even] from Babylon.

15 Li te di: “Kisa yo te wè lakay ou a?” Ézéchias te reponn: “Yo te wè tout sa ki lakay mwen an. Nanpwen anyen pami trezò mwen yo ke m pa t montre yo.”

And he said, What have they seen in thy house? And Hezekiah answered, All [the things] that [are] in my house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.

16 Konsa, Ésaïe te di a Ézéchias: “Tande pawòl SENYÈ a.

And Isaiah said to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD.

17 ‘Veye byen, jou yo ap vini lè tout sa ki lakay ou avèk tout sa ke zansèt ou yo te mete an depo jis rive jou sa a va pote ale Babylone. Anyen p ap rete, pale SENYÈ a.

Behold, the days come, that all that [is] in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store to this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.

18 Kèk nan fis ou yo ki va sòti nan ou menm, ke ou va fè, va retire ale; epi yo va devni ofisye nan palè a wa Babylone nan.’”

And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

19 Alò Ézéchias te di a Ésaïe: “Pawòl SENYÈ a ke ou te bay la bon.” Paske li te reflechi: “Èske se pa sa, si k ap gen lapè avèk verite nan jou mwen yo?”

Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good [is] the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, [Is it] not [good], if peace and truth shall be in my days?

20 Alò, tout lòt zèv a Ézéchias yo avèk tout pwisans li ak jan li te fè sous dlo a avèk kanal ki te mennen dlo a nan vil la, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Juda Yo?

And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool, and a conduit, and brought water into the city, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

21 Konsa, Ézéchias te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo e Manassé, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.

And Hezekiah slept with his fathers: and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
