< 2 Chronicles 25 >

1 Amasias was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem, the name of his mother was Joadan of Jerusalem.
Amatsia te gen laj a venn-senkan lè l te devni wa, e li te renye vent-nevan Jérusalem. Non manman li te Joaddan de Jérusalem.
2 And he did what was good in the sight of the Lord: but yet not with a perfect heart.
Li te fè sa ki dwat nan zye SENYÈ a, sepandan, pa avèk tout kè l.
3 And when he saw himself strengthened in his kingdom, he put to death the servants that had slain the king his father.
Alò, li te vin rive depi wayòm nan te byen solid nan men l, ke li te touye sèvitè li yo ki te touye papa li, wa a.
4 But he slew not their children, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, where the Lord commanded, saying: The fathers shall not be slain for the children, nor the children for their fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.
Sepandan, li pa t touye pitit yo, men li te swiv sa ki ekri nan lalwa nan liv Moïse la, ke SENYÈ a te kòmande, ki te di: “Papa yo p ap mete a lanmò pou fis yo, ni fis yo p ap mete a lanmò pou papa yo, men chak moun va mete a lanmò pou pwòp peche pa l.”
5 Amasias therefore gathered Juda together, and appointed them by families, and captains of thousands and of hundreds in all Juda, and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and upwards, and found three hundred thousand young men that could go out to battle, and could hold the spear and shield.
Anplis, Amatsia te rasanble Juda, e li te òganize yo selon lakay papa yo anba chèf a dè milye e chèf a dè santèn toupatou nan Juda avèk Benjamin. Li te pran yon kontwòl global a sila soti nan ventan oswa plis yo, e li te twouve yo a twa-san-mil mesye, byen chwazi pou fè lagè ak manyen lans ak pwotèj.
6 He hired also of Israel a hundred thousand valiant men, for a hundred talents of silver.
Li te anplwaye osi san-mil gèrye plen kouraj ki sòti an Israël pou san talan ajan.
7 But a man of God came to him, and said: O king, let not the army of Israel go out with thee, for the Lord is not with Israel, and all the children of Ephraim:
Men yon nonm Bondye te rive kote li e te di: “O Wa, pa kite lame Israël la ale avèk ou, paske SENYÈ a pa avèk Israël, ni avèk okenn nan fis Éphraïm yo.
8 And if thou think that battles consist in the strength of the army, God will make thee to be overcome by the enemies: for it belongeth to God both to help, and to put to flight.
Men si ou ale, aji avèk fòs pou batay la. Bondye va rale ou desann devan lènmi yo, paske Bondye gen pouvwa pou ede e pou desann.”
9 And Amasias said to the man of God: What will then become of the hundred talents which I have given to the soldiers of Israeli and the man of God answered him: The Lord is rich enough to be able to give thee much more than this.
Amatsia te di a nonm Bondye a: “Men kisa n ap fè pou afè san talan ke m te bay a sòlda Israël yo?” Nonm Bondye a te di: “Senyè a gen bokou plis pou bay pase sa.”
10 Then Amasias separated the army, that came to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: but they being much enraged against Juda, returned to their own country.
Konsa, Amatsia te voye yo ale, sòlda ki te rive kote li soti Éphraïm yo, pou rive lakay yo. Akoz sa a, kòlè yo te brile kont Juda e yo te retounen lakay ak gwo kòlè.
11 And Amasias taking courage led forth his people, and went to the vale of saltpits, and slew of the children of Seir ten thousand.
Alò, Amatsia te ranfòse tèt li; li te mennen pèp li a sòti pou ale nan Vale Sèl la, e te frape di-mil nan fis a Séir yo.
12 And other ten thousand men the sons of Juda took, and brought to the steep of a certain rock, and cast them down headlong from the top, and they all were broken to pieces.
Fis a Juda yo, anplis, te kaptire di-mil tou vivan. Yo te mennen yo anwo pwent falèz la, e te jete yo anba soti anwo falèz la, jiskaske yo tout te kraze chire an mòso.
13 But that army which Amasias had sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, spread themselves among the cities of Juda, from Samaria to Beth-horon, and having killed three thousand took away much spoil.
Men sòlda ke Amatsia te voye retounen pou yo pa ale nan batay la avèk li yo, te atake vil a Juda yo, soti Samarie jis rive Beth-Horon. Yo te frape twa-mil nan yo, e te piyaje anpil byen yo.
14 But Amasias after he had slain the Edomites, set up the gods of the children of Seir, which he had brought thence, to be his gods, and adored them, and burnt incense to them.
Alò, lè Amatsia te sòti nan masak Edomit yo, li te pote dye a fis a Séir yo. Li te pozisyone yo tankou dye pa li, pou l bese ba devan yo e te brile lansan a yo menm.
15 Wherefore the Lord being angry against Amasias, sent a prophet to him, to say to him: Why hast thou adored gods that have not delivered their own people out of thy hand?
Lakòlè Bondye te brile kont Amatsia, e Li te voye pwofèt Li ki te di l: “Poukisa ou te swiv dye a pèp sa a, ki pa t kab delivre pwòp pèp pa yo nan men ou?”
16 And when he spoke these things, he answered him: Art thou the king’s counsellor? be quiet, lest I kill thee. And the prophet departing, said: I know that God is minded to kill thee, because thou hast done this evil, and moreover hast not hearkened to my counsel.
Pandan li t ap pale avèk li, wa a te di li: “Èske nou te chwazi ou menm kòm konseye wayal? Rete! Poukisa w ap chache mouri?” Epi pwofèt la te rete. Li te di: “Mwen konnen ke Bondye deja fè plan pou detwi ou, paske ou te fè bagay sa a e pa t koute konsèy mwen.”
17 Then Amasias king of Juda taking very bad counsel, sent to Joas the son of Joachaz the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying: Come, let us see one another.
Alò, Amatsia, wa Juda a te pran konsèy moun pa l. Li te voye kote Joas, fis a Joachaz la, fis a Jéhu a, wa Israël la. Li te di l: “Vini, annou parèt fasafas.”
18 But he sent back the messengers, saying: The thistle that is in Libanus, sent to the cedar in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and behold the beasts that were in the wood of Libanus passed by, and trod down the thistle.
Joas, wa Israël la te voye kote Amatsia, wa Juda a. Li te di: “Bwa pikan ki te Liban an te voye kote bwa sèd ki te Liban an, e te di: ‘Bay fi ou a fis mwen nan maryaj.’ Men yon bèt sovaj nan Liban te pase akote e te foule bwa pikan an.
19 Thou hast said: I have overthrown Edom, and therefore thy heart is lifted up with pride: stay at home, why dost thou provoke evil against thee, that both thou shouldst fall and Juda with thee.
Ou di nan tèt ou: ‘Gade byen, mwen te bat Édom.’ Konsa kè ou vin plen ak ògèy e anfle. Alò, rete lakay ou! Poukisa ou ta pwovoke twoub pou tèt ou, jiskaske ou menm, ou ta tonbe e Juda avèk ou?”
20 Amasias would not hearken to him, because it was the Lord’s will that he should be delivered into the hands of enemies, because of the gods of Edom.
Men Amatsia pa t ap koute, paske sa te soti nan Bondye, ki ta livre yo nan men lèdmi yo, akoz yo te chache dye Édom yo.
21 So Joas king of Israel went up, and they presented themselves to be seen by one another: and Amasias king of Juda was in Bethsames of Juda:
Konsa Joas, wa Israël la te monte, e li menm avèk Amatsia, wa Juda a te fè fasafas nan Beth-Schémesch, ki te pou Juda a.
22 And Juda fell before Israel and they fled to their dwellings.
Juda te bat pa Israël, e yo chak te kouri nan pwòp tant yo.
23 And Joas king of Israel took Amasias king of Juda, the son of Joas, the son Joachaz, in Bethsames, and brought him to Jerusalem: and broke down the walls thereof from the gate of Ephraim, to the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
Alò Joas, wa Israël la te kaptire Amatsia, wa Juda a, fis a Joas la, fis a Joachaz la, nan Beth-Schémesch. Li te mennen li Jérusalem, e li te chire miray Jérusalem nan soti nan Pòtay Éphraïm nan jis rive nan Pòtay Kwen an, kat-san koude nan longè.
24 And he took all the gold, and silver, and all the vessels, that he found in the house of God, and with Obededom, and in the treasures of the king’s house, moreover also the sons of the hostages, he brought back to Samaria.
Li te pran tout lò avèk ajan ak tout zouti ki te twouve lakay Bondye a avèk Obed-Édom ak trezò lakay wa a, ansanm avèk prizonye yo, e te retounen Samarie.
25 And Amasias the son of Joas king of Juda lived, after the death of Joas the son of Joachaz king of Israel, fifteen years.
Epi Amatsia, fis a Joas la, wa Juda a, te viv kenzan apre lanmò Joas, fis a Joachaz la, wa Israël la.
26 Now the rest of the acts of Amasias, the first and last, are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Amatsia yo, soti nan premye a jis rive nan dènye a, men gade, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv A Wa Juda Avèk Israël yo?
27 And after he revolted from the Lord, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. And he fled into Lachis, and they sent, and killed him there.
Depi lè ke Amatsia te vire kite SENYÈ a, yo te fè konplo kont li Jérusalem, e li te sove ale Lakis, men yo te voye dèyè li Lakis e te touye li la.
28 And they brought him back upon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of David.
Konsa, yo te mennen li sou cheval e te antere li avèk zansèt li yo lavil Juda.
