2 Wa 9
1 Alò, Élisée, pwofèt la, te rele youn nan fis a pwofèt yo. Li te di li: “Mare senti ou e pran bokal lwil nan men ou pou monte Ramoth-Galaad.
And Elisha the prophet hath called to one of the sons of the prophets, and saith to him, 'Gird up thy loins, and take this vial of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth-Gilead,
2 Lè ou rive la, chache jwenn Jéhu, fis a Josaphat a, fis a Nimschi a. Antre ladann, mande li vin apa de frè li yo. Mennen li nan yon chanm anndan.
and thou hast gone in there, and see thou there Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, and thou hast gone in, and caused him to rise out of the midst of his brethren, and brought him in to the inner part of an inner-chamber,
3 Konsa, pran bokal lwil la, vide li sou tèt li e di: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a; “Mwen te onksyone ou wa sou Israël.”’ Epi konsa, louvri pòt la, kouri sove ale! Pa tann!”
and taken the vial of oil, and poured on his head, and said, Thus said Jehovah, I have anointed thee for king unto Israel; and thou hast opened the door, and fled, and dost not wait.'
4 Konsa, jennonm nan, sèvitè pwofèt la, te ale Ramoth-Galaad.
And the young man goeth — the young man the prophet — to Ramoth-Gilead,
5 Lè l rive, men vwala, kapitèn a lame yo te chita. Li te di: “Mwen gen yon pawòl pou ou O kapitèn.” Jéhu te reponn: “Pou kilès nan nou?” Li te di: “Pou ou, O kapitèn.”
and cometh in, and lo, chiefs of the force are sitting, and he saith, 'I have a word unto thee, O chief!' and Jehu saith, 'Unto which of all of us?' and he saith, 'Unto thee, O chief.'
6 Li te leve pou antre nan kay la. Li te vide lwil sou tèt li e te di li: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, Mwen te onksyone ou Wa sou pèp SENYÈ a, sou Israël menm.
And he riseth and cometh in to the house, and he poureth the oil on his head, and saith to him, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, I have anointed thee for king unto the people of Jehovah, unto Israel,
7 Ou gen pou frape lakay Achab, mèt ou a, pou Mwen kapab fè revandikasyon san a sèvitè mwen yo, pwofèt yo ak san a tout sèvitè SENYÈ yo, pa men Jézabel.
and thou hast smitten the house of Ahab thy lord, and I have required the blood of My servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of Jehovah, from the hand of Jezebel;
8 ‘Paske tout lakay Achab va peri e Mwen va koupe retire sou Achab tout gason, ni esklav, ni lib an Israël.
and perished hath all the house of Ahab, and I have cut off to Ahab those sitting on the wall, and restrained, and left, in Israel,
9 Mwen va fè lakay Achab vin tankou lakay Jéroboam, fis a Nebath la, e tankou lakay Basha, fis Achija a.
and I have given up the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and as the house of Baasha son of Ahijah,
10 Chen ap manje Jézabel nan teritwa Jizréel la, e nanpwen moun k ap antere li.’” Konsa, li te ouvri pòt la e te sove ale.
and Jezebel do the dogs eat in the portion of Jezreel, and there is none burying;' and he openeth the door and fleeth.
11 Alò Jéhu te sòti deyò kote sèvitè mèt li yo. Youn nan yo te mande l: “Èske tout bagay byen? Poukisa nonm fou sila a te vin kote ou a?” Li te reponn yo: “Ou konnen nonm sila a avèk tout sa li pale yo.”
And Jehu hath gone out unto the servants of his lord, and [one] saith to him, 'Is there peace? wherefore came this madman unto thee?' and he saith unto them, 'Ye have known the man and his talk.'
12 Yo te di: “Sa se manti. Pale nou koulye a.” Li te di: “Li te di m, ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Mwen te onksyone ou wa sou Israël”’”.
And they say, 'False, declare, we pray thee, to us;' and he saith, 'Thus and thus spake he unto me, saying, Thus said Jehovah, I have anointed thee for king unto Israel.'
13 Konsa, yo te fè vit, chak moun te pran vètman pa yo, te plase yo anba li sou mach la. Yo te soufle twonpèt la e yo t ap di: “Jéhu se wa a!”
And they haste and take each his garment, and put [it] under him at the top of the stairs, and blow with a trumpet, and say, 'Reigned hath Jehu!'
14 Konsa Jéhu, fis a Josaphat a, fis a Nimschi a, te fè konplo kont Joram. Alò, Joram avèk tout Israël t ap defann Ramoth-Galaad kont Hazaël, wa Syrie a.
And Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, conspireth against Joram — (and Joram was keeping in Ramoth-Gilead, he and all Israel, from the presence of Hazael king of Aram,
15 Men Wa Joram te fin retounen a Jizréel pou geri akoz blesi ke Siryen yo te ba li lè li te goumen avèk Hazaël, wa Syrie a. Konsa, Jéhu te di: “Si sa se volonte ou, pa kite pèsòn chape kite vil la pou ale pale Jizréel.”
and king Joram turneth back to be healed in Jezreel, of the wounds with which the Aramaeans smite him, in his fighting with Hazael king of Aram) — and Jehu saith, 'If it is your mind, let not an escaped one go out from the city, to go to declare [it] in Jezreel.'
16 Alò, Jéhu te monte yon cha pou te ale Jizréel, paske Joram te kouche la. Achazia, wa Juda a, te deja desann pou wè Joram.
And Jehu rideth, and goeth to Jezreel, for Joram is lying there, and Ahaziah king of Judah hath gone down to see Joram.
17 Koulye a, gadyen an te kanpe sou fò Jizréel, e li te wè konpanyen Jéhu, pandan li t ap vini. Li te di: “Mwen wè yon konpanyen.” Joram te di: “Pran yon chevalye, voye li rankontre yo e kite li di: ‘Èske sa an pè?’”
And the watchman is standing on the tower in Jezreel, and seeth the company of Jehu in his coming, and saith, 'A company I see;' and Joram saith, 'Take a rider and send to meet them, and let him say, Is there peace?'
18 Konsa, yon chevalye te ale rankontre li. Li te di: “Konsa pale wa a: ‘Èske sa an pè?’” Jéhu te reponn: “Kisa ou gen pou fè avèk lapè? Vire dèyè mwen.” Konsa, gadyen an te bay rapò a. “Mesaje a te rive kote yo, men li pa t retounen.”
and the rider on the horse goeth to meet him, and saith, 'Thus said the king, Is there peace?' and Jehu saith, 'What — to thee and to peace? turn round behind me.' And the watchman declareth, saying, 'The messenger came unto them, and he hath not returned.'
19 Li te voye yon dezyèm chevalye, ki te rive kote yo. Li te di: “Konsa pale wa a: ‘Èske sa an pè?’” Jéhu te reponn: “Kisa ou gen pou fè avèk lapè? Vire dèyè mwen.”
And he sendeth a second rider on a horse, and he cometh in unto them, and saith, 'Thus said the king, Is there peace?' and Jehu saith, 'What — to thee and to peace? turn round behind me.'
20 Gadyen an te bay rapò a: “Lè te rive kote yo menm, men li pa t retounen, epi kondwi li se tankou kondwi a Jéhu, paske li kondwi tankou moun anraje.”
And the watchman declareth, saying, 'He came unto them, and he hath not returned, and the driving [is] like the driving of Jehu son of Nimshi, for with madness he driveth.'
21 Konsa, Joram te di: “Fè cha a vin parèt.” Epi yo te prepare cha li a. Joram, wa Israël la, avèk Achazia, wa Juda a te sòti yo chak nan cha pa yo, yo te ale rankontre Jéhu, e yo te twouve li sou tèren Naboth la, Jizreyelit la.
And Jehoram saith, 'Harness;' and his chariot is harnessed, and Jehoram king of Israel goeth out, and Ahaziah king of Judah, each in his chariot, and they go out to meet Jehu, and find him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite.
22 Lè Joram te wè Jéhu, li te di: “Èske sa an pè, Jéhu?” Epi li te reponn: “Ki lapè sa a, kòmsi zak pwostitiye manman ou Jézabel avèk vye maji pa li yo tèlman anpil?”
And it cometh to pass, at Jehoram's seeing Jehu, that he saith, 'Is there peace, Jehu?' and he saith, 'What [is] the peace, while the whoredoms of Jezebel thy mother, and her witchcrafts, are many?'
23 Alò, Joram te frennen cha a, tou vire e te sove ale. Li te pale Achazia: “Trayizon, O Achazia!”
And Jehoram turneth his hands, and fleeth, and saith unto Ahaziah, 'Deceit, O Ahaziah!'
24 Konsa, Jéhu te rale banza li ak tout fòs e te tire Joram antre bwa li. Flèch la te pase nan kè l e li te bese desann nan cha li.
And Jehu hath filled his hand with a bow, and smiteth Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow goeth out from his heart, and he boweth down in his chariot.
25 Alò, Jéhu te pale ak Bidqar, adjwen li an: “Pran l e jete l nan chan Naboth la, Jizreyelit la, paske mwen sonje lè ou avèk mwen te monte kouri ansanm dèyè Achab, papa li, ke SENYÈ a te pwononse pawòl sa a kont li:
And [Jehu] saith unto Bidkar his captain, 'Lift up, cast him into the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite — for, remember, I and thou were riding together after Ahab his father, and Jehovah lifted upon him this burden:
26 ‘Anverite, Mwen te wè ayè, san Naboth la ak san a fis li yo,’ pale SENYÈ a, ‘epi, Mwen va rekonpanse ou nan teren sa a’, pale SENYÈ a. Alò, pou sa, pran l e jete l nan teren an, selon pawòl SENYÈ a.”
Have I not the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons seen yesternight — the affirmation of Jehovah — yea, I have recompensed to thee in this portion — the affirmation of Jehovah; — and now, lift up, cast him into the portion, according to the word of Jehovah.'
27 Lè Achazia, wa Juda a te wè li, li te sove ale pa chemen kay jaden an. Epi Jéhu te kouri dèyè li e te di: “Tire li tou, nan cha a.” Konsa, li te fèt sou ti pant Gur a, ki Jibleam nan. Men li te sove ale rive Méguiddo, e la li te mouri.
And Ahaziah king of Judah hath seen, and fleeth the way of the garden-house, and Jehu pursueth after him, and saith, 'Smite him — also him — in the chariot,' in the going up to Gur, that [is] Ibleam, and he fleeth to Megiddo, and dieth there,
28 Sèvitè li yo te pote li nan yon cha rive Jérusalem e yo te antere li nan tonm pa li avèk zansèt li yo nan vil David la.
and his servants carry him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and bury him in his burying-place, with his fathers, in the city of David.
29 Alò, nan onzyèm ane règn Joram la, fis Achab la, Achazia te devni wa sou Juda.
And in the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab reign did Ahaziah over Judah.
30 Lè Jéhu te vini Jizréel, Jézabel te tande sa. Li te pentire zye li, li te byen dekore tèt li e li te gade deyò fenèt la.
And Jehu cometh in to Jezreel, and Jezebel hath heard, and putteth her eyes in paint and maketh right her head, and looketh out through the window.
31 Lè Jéhu te antre nan pòtay la, li menm Jézabel te di: “Èske tout bagay byen, Zimri, asasen mèt pa w la?”
And Jehu hath come into the gate, and she saith, 'Was there peace [to] Zimri — slayer of his lord?'
32 Jéhu te leve figi li vè fenèt la e te di: “Se kilès ki pou mwen? Kilès?” Konsa, de oswa twa linik ren nan te gade anba kote li.
And he lifteth up his face unto the window, and saith, 'Who [is] with me? — who?' and look out unto him do two [or] three eunuchs;
33 Li te di: “Jete li anba.” Konsa, yo te jete li anba e kèk nan san li te vòltije jis sou miray la ak sou cheval yo, epi li te foule anba pye yo.
And he saith, 'Let her go;' and they let her go, and [some] of her blood is sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses, and he treadeth her down.
34 Lè Jéhu te antre, li te manje e bwè. Konsa, li te di: “Okipe koulye a de fanm modi sila a e antere li; paske se fi a wa a ke li ye.”
And he cometh in, and eateth, and drinketh, and saith, 'Look after, I pray you, this cursed one, and bury her, for she [is] a king's daughter.'
35 Yo te ale antere l, men yo pa t jwenn plis ke zo tèt la, pye yo avèk pla men yo.
And they go to bury her, and have not found of her except the skull, and the feet, and the palms of the hands.
36 Pou sa, yo te retounen pou te pale li. Konsa, li te di: “Sa se pawòl SENYÈ a, ke Li te pale pa sèvitè li, Élie, Tichbit la. Li te di: ‘Nan teren Jizréel la, chen yo va manje chè Jézabel,
And they turn back, and declare to him, and he saith, 'The word of Jehovah it [is], that He spake by the hand of this servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel do the dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel,
37 epi kadav Jézabel va tankou fimye bèt sou sifas chan nan teren Jizréel la, jiskaske yo pa ka di: “Sa se Jézabel.”’”
and the carcase of Jezebel hath been as dung on the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel, that they say not, This [is] Jezebel.'
