2 Wa 25
1 Alò nan nevyèm ane règn li an, nan dizyèm jou ak nan dezyèm mwa a, Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan te vini. Li menm avèk tout lame li te fè kan kont Jérusalem, e li te bati yon miray syèj ki te antoure li.
And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon came, he, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built a mound all around about it.
2 Konsa, vil la te anba syèj jis rive nan onzyèm ane a Wa Sédécias la.
And the city was put in a state of siege until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
3 Nan nevyèm jou ak nan katriyèm mwa a, grangou te tèlman rèd nan vil la ke pa t gen manje pou pèp peyi a.
And on the ninth of the month, when the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land:
4 Konsa, yo te kase vil la antre e tout mesye lagè yo te sove ale nan nwit lan pa pòtay antre de mi yo akote jaden a wa a, malgre Kaldeyen yo te antoure tout vil la. Konsa, yo te sòti pa chemen dezè a.
The city was broken into, and all the men of war [fled] in the night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden; [while the Chaldeans were all round about the city; ] and the people went the way toward the plain.
5 Men lame Kaldeyen yo te kouri dèyè wa a. Yo te rive pran li nan plèn Jéricho a, e tout lame li a te gaye kite li.
And the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from around him.
6 Yo te kaptire wa a e yo te mennen li kote wa Babylone nan Ribla e yo te pase jijman sou li.
And they seized the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they called him to account.
7 Yo te touye fis a Sédécias yo devan zye li, yo te pete zye a Sédécias, yo te mare l avèk chenn an bwonz yo, e yo te mennen li Babylone.
And they slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he blinded the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
8 Alò, nan setyèm jou ak nan senkyèm mwa a, ki se te diznevyèm ane Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, Nebuzaradan, kapitèn gad yo, yon sèvitè a wa Babylone nan, te rive Jérusalem.
And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, came Nebusaradan, the chief of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
9 Li te brile lakay SENYÈ a, lakay wa a ak tout kay Jérusalem yo. Menm tout gwo kay yo, li te brile yo avèk dife.
And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king's house; also, all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire.
10 Epi tout lame Kaldeyen yo ki te avèk kapitèn gad la te kraze, chire, tout mi ki te antoure Jérusalem yo.
And the walls of Jerusalem round about did all the army of the Chaldeans that were with the captain of the guard tear down.
11 Epi tout rès nan moun ki te kite lavil yo, sila ki te dezète al jwenn wa Babylone nan e tout rès pèp la ki te rete, Nébuzaraden, kapitèn gad la, te pote yo ale an egzil.
And the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the deserters that had run over to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebusaradan the captain of the guard lead away into exile;
12 Men kapitèn gad la te kite kèk moun pami pi malere yo pou sèvi kòm ouvriye nan chan rezen yo ak pou raboure tè a.
But from the poorest of the land the captain of the guard left some to be vine-dressers and husbandmen.
13 Alò, pilye an bwonz ki te lakay SENYÈ yo ak baz avèk lanmè an bwonz ki te lakay SENYÈ a, Kaldeyen yo te kase yo an mòso e te pote bwonz lan Babylone.
And the pillars of copper that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the copper sea that was in the house of the Lord, did the Chaldeans break up, and they carried the copper thereof to Babylon.
14 Yo te retire po yo, pèl yo, etennwa yo, kiyè yo ak tout veso an bwonz ki te konn sèvi nan sèvis tanp lan.
And the pots, and the shovels, and the knives, and the spoons, and all the vessels of copper wherewith they ministered, took they away.
15 Kòmandan gad la, anplis, te pran tout plato pou resevwa sann yo, avèk basen yo, sila ki te an lò fen ak sila ki te an ajan fen yo.
And the censers, and the bowls, the gold of the golden things, and the silver of the silver things, took the captain of the guard away.
16 De pilye yo, yon sèl lanmè a ak baz ke Salomon te fè pou lakay SENYÈ a, bwonz nan veso sila yo te depase kapasite pou peze.
The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord: the copper of all these vessels was too much to be weighed.
17 Wotè a yon pilye te di-zuit koude e yon tèt an bwonz te sou li. Wotè a tèt an bwonz lan te twa koude, avèk yon griyaj ak grenad ki te antoure li an bwonz. Epi dezyèm pilye a te tankou sila yo avèk yon sistèm griyaj.
Eighteen cubits was the height of the one pillar, and the capital upon it was copper; and the height of the capital was three cubits; and the wreathed work, and the pomegranates upon the capitals round about, were all of copper: and the same had the second pillar together with the wreathed work.
18 Alò, kapitèn gad la te pran Seraja, wo prèt la, avèk Sophonie, dezyèm prèt la, avèk twa ofisye a tanp lan.
And the captain of the guard took Serayah the chief-priest, and Zephanyahu the second priest, and the three door-keepers;
19 Depi nan vil la, li te pran yon ofisye ki te chèf mesye lagè yo ak senk nan konseye a wa yo ki te twouve nan vil la; epi grefye a kapitèn lame ki te responsab anrejistre moun nan peyi a; epi swasant moun nan pèp peyi a te twouve nan vil la.
And out of the city he took one court-officer that was appointed over the men of war, and five men of those that could come into the king's presence, who were found in the city, and the scribe of the chief of the army, who ordered to the army the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land that were found in the city:
20 Nebuzaradan, kapitèn gad la, te pran yo pou te mennen yo kote wa Babylone nan Ribla.
And Nebusaradan the captain of the guard took these, and conducted them to the king of Babylon to Riblah;
21 Alò, wa Babylone nan te frape yo e te mete yo a lanmò nan Ribla nan peyi Hamath. Konsa, Juda te mennen an egzil soti nan peyi li.
And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Chamath. So did Judah wander away into exile out of their land.
22 Alò, moun ki te rete nan peyi Juda yo, ke Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te kite, li te chwazi Guedalia, fis a Achikam nan, fis a Schaphan an sou yo.
And as for the people that were left in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had left, he appointed over them Gedalyahu the son of Achikam, the son of Shaphan.
23 Lè tout kapitèn yo avèk sòlda pa yo te tande ke wa Babylone nan te chwazi Guedalia kòm gouvènè, yo te vin kote Guedalia nan Mitspa; pa non, Ismaël fis a Nethania a, avèk Jochanan, fis a Karéach la, Seraja, fis a Thanhumeth la, Netofayit la, avèk Jaazania, fis a Maakatyen an, yo menm avèk mesye pa yo.
And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedalyahu, they came to Gedalyahu to Mizpah; even Ishma'el the son of Nethanyah, and Jochanan the son of Kareach, and Serayah the son of Tanchumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazanyahu the son of a Ma'achathite, they and their men.
24 Guedalia te sèmante a yo avèk mesye pa yo a, e te di yo: “Pa pè vin sèvitè a Kaldeyen yo. Viv nan peyi a, sèvi wa Babylone nan e sa va ale byen pou nou.”
And Gedalyahu swore to them, and to their men, and said unto them, Be not afraid of the servants of the Chaldeans: remain in the land, and serve the king of Babylon; and it will be well with you.
25 Men li te vin rive nan setyèm mwa a, ke Ismaël, fis a Nethania yo, fis a Élischama yo nan fanmi wayal la, te rive avèk dis òm pou te frape Guedalia e li te mouri ansanm avèk Jwif ak Kaldeyen ki te avèk li nan Mitspa yo.
But it happened in the seventh month, that there came Ishma'el the son of Nethanyah, the son of Elishama', of the seed royal, and ten men with him, and they smote Gedalyahu, so that he died, also the Jews and the Chaldeans that were with him at Mizpah.
26 Alò, tout pèp la, ni gran ni piti, avèk kapitèn a fòs soulèvman yo te leve ale an Égypte; paske yo te pè Kaldeyen yo.
And then arose all the people, from small to great, and the captains of the armies, and went to Egypt; for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
27 Alò, li te vin rive nan trant-setyèm ane an egzil a Jojakin, wa Juda a, nan douzyèm mwa a, nan venn-setyèm jou nan mwa a, ke Évil-Merodac, wa Babylone nan, nan lane ke li te vin wa a, li te lage Jojakin, wa Juda a, soti nan prizon.
And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoyachin the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth [day] of the month, that Evil-merodach the king of Babylon in the year that he became king did lift up the head of Jehoyachin the king of Judah out of the prison;
28 Konsa, li te pale avèk dousè anvè li e li te leve twòn li an piwo pase lòt wa ki te avèk li Babylone yo.
And he spoke kindly to him, and set his chair above the chair of the kings that were with him in Babylon:
29 Jojakin te chanje rad prizonye li yo, e li te vin pran repa l nan prezans a wa a pandan tout rès jou lavi li.
And changed his prison garments: and he ate bread continually before him all the days of his life.
30 Epi pou bous li, yon bous nòmal te bay a li menm pa wa a, yon pòsyon pou chak jou pandan tout jou lavi li.
And his allowance was a continual allowance given him by the king, the necessary ration for the day on its day, all the days of his life.
