< 2 Wa 21 >
1 Manassé te gen laj douzan lè l te devni wa a e li te renye senkann-senk ane Jérusalem. Manman li te rele Hephtsiba.
Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and fifty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Haphsiba.
2 Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a, selon tout abominasyon a nasyon ke SENYÈ a te rache devan fis Israël yo.
And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, according to the idols of the nations, which the Lord destroyed from before the face of the children of Israel.
3 Paske li te rebati wo plas ke Ézéchias te detwi yo, epi li te monte lotèl pou Baal yo, e li te fè yon Astarté, jan Achab, wa Israël la te fè pou te adore tout lame syèl la e te sèvi yo.
And he turned, and built up the high places which Ezechias his father had destroyed: and he set up altars to Baal, and made groves, as Achab the king of Israel had done: and he adored all the host of heaven, and served them.
4 Li te bati lotèl lakay SENYÈ a, sou sila SENYÈ a te di: “Nan Jérusalem, Mwen va mete non Mwen.”
And he built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord said: In Jerusalem I will put my name.
5 Li te bati lotèl pou tout lame syèl la nan de lakou lakay SENYÈ a.
And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the temple of the Lord.
6 Li te fè fis li yo pase nan dife, pratike maji e sèvi divinasyon. Li te sèvi moun ki pale ak mò ansanm ak lespri. Li te fè anpil mal nan zye SENYÈ a ki te pwovoke Li a lakòlè.
And he made his son pass through fire: and he used divination, and observed omens, and appointed pythons, and multiplied soothsayers to do evil before the Lord, and to provoke him.
7 Anplis, li te plase imaj a Astarté ke li te fè a, nan kay ke SENYÈ a te di a David avèk fis li a, Salomon: “Nan kay sila a ak Jérusalem nan, ke Mwen te chwazi soti nan tout tribi Israël yo, Mwen va mete non Mwen jis pou tout tan.
He set also an idol of the grove, which he had made, in the temple of the Lord: concerning which the Lord said to David, and to Solomon his son: In this temple, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name for ever.
8 Epi mwen p ap fè pye Israël mache egare ankò deyò peyi ke m te bay a zansèt yo a, si sèlman, yo va obsève pou fè selon tout sa ke M te kòmande yo, selon tout lalwa ke sèvitè Mwen an, Moïse te kòmande yo.”
And I will no more make the feet of Israel to be moved out of the land, which I gave to their fathers: only if they will observe to do all that I have commanded them according to the law which my servant Moses commanded them.
9 Men yo pa t koute e Manassé te sedwi yo pou fè mal plis ke nasyon ke SENYÈ a te detwi devan fis Israël yo.
But they hearkened not: but were seduced by Manasses, to do evil more than the nations which the Lord destroyed before the children of Israel.
10 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale pa sèvitè yo, pwofèt yo, e te di:
And the Lord spoke in the hand of his servants, the prophets, saying:
11 “Akoz Manassé, wa Juda a, te fè abominasyon sila yo, e te fè plis mechanste pase tout Amoreyen ki te avan li yo, e anplis, li te fè Juda peche avèk zidòl pa li yo;
Because Manasses king of Juda hath done these most wicked abominations, beyond all that the Amorrhites did before him, and hath made Juda also to sin with his filthy doings:
12 pou sa, konsa pale SENYÈ, Bondye Israël la: ‘Gade byen, Mwen ap mennen yon tèlman gwo twoub sou Jérusalem avèk Juda, pou nenpòt moun ki tande koz li, toude zòrèy li va sonnen avèk sezisman.
Therefore thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Behold I will bring on evils upon Jerusalem and Juda: that whosoever shall hear of them, both his ears shall tingle.
13 Mwen va fè lonje sou Jérusalem lizyè Samarie a, avèk fil aplon kay Achab la, e Mwen va siye Jérusalem jan yon moun ta siye yon plato. Konsa m ap siye li e vire li tèt anba.
And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the weight of the house of Achab: and I will efface Jerusalem, as tables are wont to be effaced, and I will erase and turn it, and draw the pencil often over the face thereof.
14 Mwen va abandone retay eritaj Mwen an e Mwen va livre yo nan men a lènmi yo. Yo va vin piyaje e depouye pa tout lènmi yo,
And I will leave the remnants of my inheritance, and will deliver them into the hands of their enemies: and they shall become a prey, and a spoil to all their enemies.
15 akoz yo te fè mal devan zye Mwen e te pwovoke Mwen a lakòlè soti jou ke zansèt pa yo te sòti an Égypte la, menm rive jodi a.’”
Because they have done evil before me, and have continued to provoke me, from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even unto this day.
16 Anplis, Manassé te vèse san inosan jiskaske li te ranpli Jérusalem soti nan yon bout jis rive nan yon lòt. Li te fè sa, anplis, peche pa li avèk sila li te fè Juda peche nan fè mal devan zye SENYÈ a.
Moreover Manasses shed also very much innocent blood, till he filled Jerusalem up to the mouth: besides his sins, wherewith he made Juda to sin, to do evil before the Lord.
17 Alò, tout lòt zèv a Manassé yo avèk tout sa ke li te fè ak peche ke li te komèt yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Juda Yo?
Now the rest of the acts of Manasses, and all that he did, and his sin which he sinned, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
18 Konsa, Manassé te dòmi avèk zansèt pa li yo e te antere nan jaden lakay li, nan jaden Uzza a. Epi Amon, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Oza: and Amen his son reigned in his stead.
19 Amon te gen venn-dezan lè l te devni wa e li te renye dezan Jérusalem. Manman li te rele Meschullémeth, fi a Haruts la, nan Jotba.
Two and twenty years old was Amen when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Messalemeth the daughter of Harus of Jeteba.
20 Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a, jan Manassé, papa li te konn fè a.
And he did evil in the sight, of the Lord, as Manasses his father had done.
21 Paske li te mache nan tout chemen ke papa li te konn mache yo, e li te sèvi zidòl ke papa li te konn sèvi, e te adore yo.
And he walked in all the way in which his father had walked: and he served the abominations which his father had served, and he adored them;
22 Konsa, li te abandone SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt li yo, e li pa t mache nan chemen SENYÈ a.
And forsook the Lord the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.
23 Sèvitè a Amon yo te fè konplo kont li e yo te touye wa a nan pwòp kay li.
And his servants plotted against him, and slew the king in his own house.
24 Alò, pèp peyi a te touye tout sila ki te fè konplo kont Wa Amon yo, e pèp peyi a te fè Josias, fis li a, wa nan plas li.
But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amen: and made Josias his son their king in his stead.
25 Alò, tout lòt zèv ke Amon te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Juda Yo?
But the rest of the acts of Amen which he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
26 Li te antere nan tonm pa li nan jaden Uzza a e Josias, fis li a, te devni Wa nan plas li.
And they buried him in his sepulchre in the garden of Oza: and his son Josias reigned in his stead.
