Isaiah 36

1 Nowe in the fourteenth yeere of King Hezekiah, Saneherib King of Asshur came vp against al the strong cities of Iudah, and tooke them.

Ezekyas te gen katòzan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Senakerib, wa peyi Lasiri, vin atake tout lavil nan peyi Jida ki te gen gwo ranpa pou pwoteje yo. Li pran yo.

2 And the King of Asshur sent Rabshakeh from Lachish toward Ierusalem vnto King Hezekiah, with a great hoste, and he stood by ye conduite of the vpper poole in the path of the fullers fielde.

Apre sa, li bay chèf gad palè li a lòd pou li kite lavil lakis ak yon gwo lame pou l' moute lavil Jerizalèm ale bò kote wa Ezekyas. Chèf gad palè a rive sou wout ki mennen nan jaden kote yo rense twal ki fenk tenn yo, li moute kan li toupre gwo kannal ki bay dlo nan sitèn anwo lavil la.

3 Then came foorth vnto him Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah the steward of the house, and Shebna the chanceler, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder.

Twa moun Jida soti vin jwenn li. 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.

4 And Rabshakeh sayde vnto them, Tell you Hezekiah, I pray you, Thus sayth the great King, the 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?

5 I say, 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 entèlijans ak bon sòlda? Sou ki moun ou apiye kò ou pou ou kenbe tèt ak mwen konsa?

6 Loe, thou trustest in this broken staffe of reede on Egypt, whereupon if a man leane, it will goe into his hand, and pearce it: so is Pharaoh King of Egypt, vnto all that trust in him.

Ou 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.

7 But if thou say to me, We trust in the Lord our God. Is not that he, whose hie places and whose altars Hezekiah tooke downe, and said to Iudah and to Ierusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?

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 pou tout moun peyi Jida ak moun lavil Jerizalèm vin adore devan yon sèl lotèl la?

8 Nowe therefore giue hostages to my lorde the King of Asshur, and I wil giue thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders vpon them.

Antann nou avèk mèt mwen an, wa peyi Lasiri a. Lèfini, m'ap ban nou demil chwal si nou ka jwenn demil sòlda pou moute yo.

9 For howe canst thou despise any captaine of the least of my lordes seruants? and put thy trust on Egypt for charets and for 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 jwenn cha lagè ak kavalye pou fè lagè!

10 And am I now come vp without the Lord to this land to destroy it? The Lord sayd vnto 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' vin atake peyi ou la pou m' detwi l'.

11 Then sayd Eliakim and Shebna and Ioah 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, Chebna ansanm ak Joak di chèf gad palè a: -Tanpri, mèt. Pale lang arameyen ak nou. Nou konprann lang sa a. Men pa pale ebre. Tout moun ki sou miray la ap koute.

12 Then said Rabshakeh, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee to speake these wordes, and not to the men that 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 avè wa nou an ansanm ak nou twa la a ase wa mwen an voye m' vin pale pawòl sa yo? Non. Se ak tout moun ki chita sou miray la menm m'ap pale. Yo menm tou pral manje poupou yo, yo pral bwè pipi yo ansanm ak nou!

13 So Rabshakeh stood, and cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes language, and sayd, 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: -Koute sa gran wa a, wa peyi Lasiri a, voye di nou:

14 Thus saith the King, Let not Hezekiah deceiue you: for he shall not be able to deliuer you.

Li voye di nou pa kite Ezekyas twonpe nou. Li pa ka sove nou tande!

15 Neither let Hezekiah make you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliuer vs: 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, li p'ap lage lavil la nan men wa peyi Lasiri a.

16 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus sayth 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 fig tree, and drinke euery man 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 n'a manje rezen nan jaden rezen nou, n'a manje fig frans nan pye fig frans nou, n'a bwè dlo nan pi nou.

17 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,

Lè wa a va vin isit la, l'a pran nou, l'a 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.

18 Least Hezekiah deceiue you, saying, The Lord wil deliuer vs. Hath any of the gods of the nations deliuered his land out of the hand of the King of Asshur?

Pa kite Ezekyas pran tèt nou pou nou kwè Seyè a va delivre nou. Eske bondye lòt nasyon yo te delivre yo anba men wa peyi Lasiri a?

19 Where is the god of Hamath, and of Arpad? where is the god of Sepharuaim? or howe haue they deliuered Samaria out of mine hand?

Kote bondye moun Amat yo ak bondye moun Apad yo? Kote bondye moun Sefavayim yo? Eske yo te sove peyi Samari anba men l'?

20 Who is hee among all the gods of these lands, that hath deliuered their countrey out of mine hand, that the Lord should deliuer Ierusalem out of mine hand?

Nan tout bondye sa yo, kilès ki te rive sove yonn nan peyi sa yo anba men l'? Atò, se Seyè a ki ta ka sove lavil Jerizalèm anba men l'?

21 Then they kept silence, and answered him not a worde: for the Kings commandement was, saying, Answere him not.

Men pèp la pa louvri bouch li reponn. Yo pa di yon mo paske wa a te bay lòd pou pesonn pa reponn.

22 Then came Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah the steward of the house, and Shebna the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder, vnto Hezekiah with rent clothes, and tolde him the wordes of Rabshakeh.

Apre sa, Elyakim, pitit Ilkiya 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, 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.
