< 2 Kings 18 >

1 Now in the third yeere of Hoshea, sonne of Elah King of Israel, Hezekiah the sonne of Ahaz king of Iudah began to reigne.
Oze, pitit Ela, t'ap mache sou twazan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl lè Ezekyas, pitit gason Akaz, moute wa nan peyi Jida.
2 He was fiue and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned nine and twenty yeere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Abi the daughter of Zachariah,
Lè sa a, li te gen vennsenkan. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan ventnevan. Manman l' te rele Abi. Se te pitit fi Zakari.
3 And he did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Dauid his father had done.
Li te mache dwat devan Seyè a, li te fè menm jan ak David, zansèt li a.
4 He tooke away the hie places, and brake the images, and cut downe the groues, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for vnto those dayes the children of Israel did burne incense to it, and hee called it Nehushtan.
Se li menm ki te kraze tout tanp zidòl yo. Li kraze tout wòch yo te mete kanpe pou zidòl yo, li koupe estati Achera yo. Li kraze an miyèt moso estati sèpan an kwiv Moyiz te fè a, paske jouk lè sa a toujou pèp Izrayèl la t'ap boule lansan pou li. Yo te rele l' Newouchtan.
5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel: so that after him was none like him among all the Kings of Iudah, neither were there any such before him.
Ezekyas te mete tout konfyans li nan Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la. Peyi Jida a pa janm gen yon wa tankou l', ni anvan l' ni apre l'.
6 For he claue to the Lord, and departed not from him, but kept his commandements, which the Lord had commanded Moses.
Li te kenbe Bondye li fèm, li pa t' janm dezobeyi l'. Li te fè tou sa Seyè a te mande dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz.
7 So the Lord was with him, and he prospered in all thinges, which he tooke in hande: also he rebelled against the King of Asshur, and serued him not.
Se poutèt sa, Seyè a te toujou la avè l'. Tou sa li te fè te byen soti. Ezekyas kenbe tèt ak wa peyi Lasiri a. Li derefize soumèt devan li.
8 He smote the Philistims vnto Azzah, and the coastes thereof, from the watch towre vnto the defensed citie.
Li bat moun peyi Filisti yo, li kouri dèyè yo rive lavil Gaza ak sou fwontyè l' yo, li piye dènye kote yo te rete, depi ti bouk avanpòs yo rive nan gwo lavil ak ranpa yo.
9 And in the fourth yere of King Hezekiah, (which was the seuenth yeere of Hoshea sonne of Elah King of Israel) Shalmaneser King of Asshur came vp against Samaria, and besieged it.
Ezekyas t'ap mache sou katran depi li te wa nan peyi Jida, Oze, pitit Ela a menm, te gen sètan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl la lè Salmanaza, wa peyi Lasiri a, anvayi peyi Izrayèl, li sènen lavil Samari.
10 And after three yeeres they tooke it, euen in the sixt yeere of Hezekiah: that is, the ninth yeere of Hoshea King of Israel was Samaria taken.
Sou bout twazan, li pran lavil la. Lè sa a, Ezekyas t'ap mache sou sizan depi li te wa, Oze menm te gen nevan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl.
11 Then the King of Asshur did carry away Israel vnto Asshur, and put them in Halah and in Habor, by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes,
Salmanaza fè tout moun peyi Izrayèl yo prizonye. Li depòte yo nan peyi Lasiri. Li mete yon pati ladan yo lavil Ala, toupre larivyè Abò nan zòn Gozan an, yon pati nan lavil peyi Medi yo.
12 Because they woulde not obey the voyce of the Lord their God, but transgressed his couenant: that is, all that Moses the seruant of the Lord had commanded, and would neyther obey nor doe them.
Lavil Samari te tonbe paske moun pèp Izrayèl yo pa t' obeyi Seyè a, Bondye yo a. Yo pa t' respekte kontra li te pase ak yo a. Yo pa t' fè tou sa Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, te mande yo fè. Yo pa t' koute l'.
13 Moreouer, in the fourteenth yeere of King Hezekiah, Saneherib King of Asshur came vp against all the strong cities of Iudah, and tooke them.
Wa Ezekyas t'ap mache sou katòzan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Senakerib, wa peyi Lasiri, vin atake tout lavil ak gwo ranpa peyi Jida yo. Li pran yo.
14 Then Hezekiah King of Iudah sent vnto the King of Asshur to Lachish, saying, I haue offended: depart from me, and what thou layest vpon me, I wil beare it. And the King of Asshur appoynted vnto Hezekiah King of Iudah three hudreth talents of siluer, and thirty talets of golde.
Lè sa a, Ezekyas, wa peyi Jida, voye yon mesaj bay Senakerib ki te lavil Lakis. Li di l' konsa: —Sa m' fè a mal. Tanpri, pa atake m' ankò. Nenpòt kisa w'a egzije m' bay, m'ap ba ou li. Wa peyi Lasiri a egzije pou Ezekyas, wa peyi Jida a, ba li dis tòn ajan ak yon tòn lò.
15 Therefore Hezekiah gaue all the siluer that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the Kings house.
Ezekyas ba li tout ajan ki te nan Tanp Seyè a ak nan trezò palè a.
16 At the same season did Hezekiah pul off the plates of the doores of the Temple of the Lord, and the pillars (which the sayd Hezekiah King of Iudah had couered ouer) and gaue them to the King of Asshur.
Li dekale tout lò li menm li te fè plake sou pòt ak chanbrann pòt Tanp Seyè a, li voye yo bay wa peyi Lasiri a.
17 And the King of Asshur sent Tartan, and Rab-saris, and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a great hoste against Ierusalem. And they went vp, and came to Ierusalem, and when they were come vp, they stood by the conduite of the vpper poole, which is by the path of the fullers fielde,
Apre sa, wa peyi Lasiri a rete lavil Lakis li voye kòmandan chèf lame li a, chèf gad pèsonèl li a ak chèf gad palè li a ansanm ak yon gwo lame bò kote Ezekyas. Yo moute lavil Jerizalèm pou atake l'. Lè yo rive la, yo moute kan yo sou wout ki mennen nan jaden kote yo lave twal ki fenk tenn yo, toupre kannal ki bay dlo nan rezèvwa anwo lavil la.
18 And called to the King. Then came out to them Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder.
Yo voye chache wa a. Men se twa otorite ki soti vin jwenn yo. Se te Elyakim, pitit Ilkija a, ki te chèf moun k'ap travay nan palè a, Chebna, sekretè a, ak Joak, pitit Asaf la, ki te reskonsab achiv leta a.
19 And Rabshakeh sayde vnto them, Tell ye Hezekiah, I pray you, Thus saith the great King, euen the great King of Asshur, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
Chèf gad palè wa Lasiri a di yo konsa: —Ale di wa Ezekyas men mesaj gran wa a, wa peyi Lasiri a, voye ba li: Poukisa ou gen tout konfyans sa a?
20 Thou thinkest, Surely I haue eloquence, but counsell and strength are for the warre. On whom then doest thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
Ou konprann ou ka fè lagè ak bèl pawòl ase, san ou pa bezwen lespri ak bon sòlda? Sou ki moun ou apiye pou ou kenbe tèt ak mwen konsa?
21 Lo, thou trustest now in this broken staffe of reede, to wit, on Egypt, on which if a man leane, it will goe into his hand, and pearce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt vnto all that trust on him.
W'al mete konfyans ou nan peyi Lejip! Yon baton wozo tou kase! Anvan ou apiye sou li, l'ap antre nan men ou, l'ap blese ou. Farawon an, wa peyi Lejip ou wè a, se konsa li ye pou tout moun ki fè l' konfyans.
22 But if ye say vnto me, We trust in the Lord our God, is not that he whose hie places, and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath sayd to Iudah and Ierusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Ierusalem?
Nou pral di m' koulye a se nan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nou mete konfyans nou! Atò, se pa kote nou te mete apa pou li yo ansanm ak tout lotèl li yo wa Ezekyas te fè disparèt nan peyi a, lèfini, li mande tout moun peyi Jida ak moun lavil Jerizalèm pou yo vin devan yon sèl lotèl la?
23 Now therefore giue hostages to my lord the King of Asshur, and I will giue thee two thousand horses, if thou be able to set riders vpon them.
Antann nou avè mèt mwen an, wa peyi Lasiri a. Lèfini, m'ap ban nou demil (2.000) chwal si nou ka jwenn demil sòlda pou moute yo.
24 For how canst thou despise any captaine of the least of my masters seruants, and put thy trust on Egypt for charets and horsemen?
Ou pa menm gen moun ase pou bat yonn nan pi piti chèf ki sou lòd wa mwen an! Epi se sou peyi Lejip w'ap konte pou jwenn cha lagè ak kavalye pou fè lagè?
25 Am I now come vp without the Lord to this place, to destroy it? the Lord sayd to me, Goe vp against this land, and destroy it.
Epitou, pa konprann se san konsantman Seyè a mwen vin atake peyi a pou m' detwi l'. Se Seyè a menm ki di m' atake peyi ou la pou m' detwi l'.
26 Then Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Ioah said vnto Rabshakeh, Speake I pray thee, to thy seruants in the Aramites language, for we vnderstand it, and talke not with vs in the Iewes tongue, in the audience of the people that are on the wall.
Lè sa a, Elyakim, pitit Ilkija a, Chebna ansanm ak Joak, di chèf gad palè a: —Tanpri, mèt. Pale arameyen ak nou. Nou konprann lang sa a. Men, pa pale ebre. Tout moun ki sou miray la ap koute.
27 But Rabshakeh saide vnto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speake these words, and not to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eate their owne doung, and drinke their owne pisse with you?
Men, chèf gad palè a di yo an ebre: —An! Nou konprann se pou wa nou an ansanm ak nou twa la a ase wa mwen an voye m' vin pale pawòl sa yo? Non. M'ap pale ak tout moun ki chita sou miray la tou. Yo menm tou yo pral manje poupou yo, yo pral bwè pipi yo ansanm ak nou!
28 So Rabshakeh stoode and cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes language, and spake, saying, Heare the wordes of the great King, of the king of Asshur.
Lè sa a, chèf gad palè a kanpe, li pran pale byen fò an ebre, li di konsa: —Koute sa gran wa a, wa peyi Lasiri a, voye di nou.
29 Thus sayth the King, Let not Hezekiah deceiue you: for he shall not be able to deliuer you out of mine hand.
Li voye di nou pa kite Ezekyas twonpe nou. Li pa ka sove nou tande.
30 Neither let Hezekiah make you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliuer vs, and this citie shall not be giuen ouer into the hand of the king of Asshur.
Pa kite l' pran tèt nou lè l'ap di nou nou mèt sèten Seyè a pral sove nou, Seyè a p'ap lage lavil la nan men wa peyi Lasiri a.
31 Hearken not vnto Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Asshur, Make appointment with me, and come out to me, that euery man may eate of his owne vine, and euery man of his owne figge tree, and drinke euery man of the water of his owne well,
Pa koute wa Ezekyas! Wa peyi Lasiri a mande pou nou fè lapè avè l', pou nou rann tèt nou ba li. Konsa, nou tout ka manje rezen nan jaden rezen nou, n'a ka manje fig frans nan pye fig frans nou, n'a ka bwè dlo nan pi nou.
32 Till I come, and bring you to a land like your owne land, euen a land of wheate and wine, a land of bread and vineyardes, a lande of oliues oyle, and hony, that ye may liue and not die: and obey not Hezekiah, for he deceiueth you, saying, The Lord will deliuer vs.
Lè wa a va vin isit la pita, la pran nou, la mennen nou nan yon lòt peyi ki tankou peyi pa nou an, yon peyi kote ki gen anpil ble pou fè farin ak anpil rezen pou fè diven, yon peyi kote ki gen pye oliv pou fè lwil oliv ak anpil siwo myèl. Konsa n'a viv, nou p'ap mouri. Pa kite Ezekyas pran tèt nou pou nou kwè Seyè a va delivre nou.
33 Hath any of the gods of the nations deliuered his lande out of the hand of the King of Asshur?
Eske bondye lòt nasyon yo te delivre yo anba men wa peyi Lasiri a?
34 Where is the god of Hamah, and of Arpad? where is the god of Sepharuaim, Hena and Iuah? how haue they deliuered Samaria out of mine hand?
Kote bondye moun Amat yo ak bondye moun Apad yo? Kote bondye moun Sefavayim yo, moun Ena ak moun Iva yo? Eske yo te sove peyi Samari anba men l'?
35 Who are they among all the gods of the nations, that haue deliuered their lande out of mine hand, that the Lord should deliuer Ierusalem out of mine hand?
Nan tout bondye sa yo, kilès ki te rive sove moun yo anba men l'? Poukisa atò se Seyè a ki pou ta sove lavil Jerizalèm anba men l'?
36 But the people helde their peace, and answered not him a worde: for the Kings commandement was, saying, Answere ye him not.
Men pèp la pa louvri bouch reponn, yo pa di yon mo paske wa a te bay lòd pou pesonn pa reponn.
37 Then Eliakim, the sonne of Hilkiah which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and tolde him the wordes of Rabshakeh.
Apre sa, Elyakim, pitit Ilkija a, ki chèf moun k'ap travay nan palè a, Chebna, sekretè a ak Joak, pitit Azaf la, ki te reskonsab achiv leta a, chire rad sou yo sitèlman sa te fè yo lapenn. Yo tounen al jwenn Ezekyas, yo rapòte l' tou sa chèf gad palè wa Lasiri a te di.
