Chronicles II 21
1 And Josaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Joran his son reigned in his stead.
Jozafa mouri, yo antere l' nan tonm wa yo, nan lavil David la. Se pitit li, Joram, ki moute sou fotèy la nan plas li.
2 And he had brothers, the six sons of Josaphat, Azarias, and Jeiel, and Zacharias, and Azarias, and Michael, and Zaphatias: all these [were] the sons of Josaphat king of Juda.
Joram, pitit Jozafa, wa peyi Jida a, te gen sis frè: Azarya, Jeyèl, Zakari, Azaryawou, Mikayèk ak Chefatyawou.
3 And their father gave them many gifts, silver, and gold, and arms, together with fortified cities in Juda: but he gave the kingdom to Joram, for he [was] the firstborn.
Papa yo te ba yo chak yon kantite lò, ajan, ak tout kalite lòt bagay ki gen valè. Li mete yo chèf nan gwo lavil ki gen miray ranpa nan peyi Jida a. Men li te mete Joram wa nan plas li, paske Joram te premye pitit gason l'.
4 And Joram entered upon his kingdom, and strengthened himself, and killed all his brothers with the sword, and [some] of the princes of Israel.
Lè Joram moute wa nan plas papa l', li chita otorite l' byen chita nan peyi a. Lèfini, li fè touye tout frè l' yo ansanm ak kèk gwo chèf pèp Izrayèl la.
5 When he was thirty and two years old, Joram succeeded to his kingdom, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
Joram te gen tranndezan lè li moute wa. Li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan witan.
6 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Achaab; for a daughter of Achaab was his wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord:
Li fè tankou wa Akab ak lòt wa peyi Izrayèl yo te fè. Li te marye ak yon pitit fi Akab, li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a.
7 nevertheless the Lord would not utterly destroy the house of David, because of the covenant which he made with David, and as he said to him that he would give a light to him and his sons for ever.
Men Seyè a pa t' vle detwi fanmi David la, paske li te pase kontra ak David. Li te pwomèt David li t'ap toujou gen yon moun nan ras li pou gouvènen peyi a devan Seyè a.
8 In those days Edom revolted from Juda, and they made a king over themselves.
Sou rèy wa Joram, moun peyi Edon yo pran lèzam kont moun peyi Jida yo. Yo pran libète granmoun yo, yo nonmen yon wa pou gouvènen yo.
9 And Joram went with the princes, and all the cavalry with him: and it came to pass that he arose by night, and struck Edom that compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots, and the people fled to their tents.
Se konsa Joram soti ak tout chèf li yo ak tout cha lagè li yo, li mache sou yo. Lame moun Edon yo sènen l'. Pandan lannwit, Joram ak chèf cha lagè li yo leve, yo atake moun Edon yo, yo pase soti nan mitan yo, yo chape kò yo.
10 And Edom revolted from Juda until this day. Then Lomna at that time revolted from [under] his hand, because he forsook the Lord God of his fathers.
Se depi lè sa a, peyi Edon soti anba otorite peyi Jida a. Yo granmoun lakay yo. Se menm lè sa a tou, moun lavil Libna yo soti anba otorite peyi Jida a, paske Joram te vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye zansèt yo a.
11 For he built high places in the cities of Juda, and caused the dwellers in Jerusalem to go a-whoring, and led Juda astray.
Li te menm rive fè bati tanp pou sèvi zidòl nan mòn peyi Jida yo. Li lakòz moun lavil Jerizalèm yo vire do bay Bondye. Li fè peyi Jida a pèdi wout li.
12 And there came to him [a message] in writing from Eliu the prophet, saying, Thus says the Lord God of your father David, Because you have not walked in the way of your father Josaphat, nor in the ways of Asa king of Juda,
Se konsa Joram resevwa yon lèt pwofèt Eli te voye ba li. Nan lèt la pwofèt la di: -Men sa Seyè a, Bondye David, zansèt w'a a, voye di ou: Ou pa swiv egzanp Jozafa, papa ou, ni egzanp Asa, granpapa ou.
13 but have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and have caused Juda and the dwellers in Jerusalem to go a-whoring, as the house of Achaab caused [Israel] to go a-whoring, and you have slain your brethren, the sons of your father, who were better than yourself;
Ou te pito swiv egzanp wa peyi Izrayèl yo. Ou lakòz peyi Jida a ak tout moun lavil Jerizalèm yo vire do bay Bondye tankou moun fanmi Akab yo te fè l' la. Ou menm rive touye frè ou yo, pwòp pitit papa ou yo, ki te pi bon pase ou.
14 behold, the Lord shall strike you with a great plague among your people, and your sons, and your wives, and all your store:
Se poutèt sa, Seyè a pral voye yon gwo malè sou pèp la, sou pitit ou yo, sou madanm ou yo ak sou tou sa ou genyen.
15 and you [shall be afflicted] with a grievous disease, with a disease of the bowels, until your bowels shall fall out day by day with the sickness.
Ou menm pou tèt pa ou, ou pral malad anpil. Ou pral gen yon sèl maladi vant ki pral fè ou soufri jouk trip ou va soti.
16 So the Lord stirred up the Philistines against Joram, and the Arabians, and those who bordered on the Aethiopians:
Lè sa a, te gen kèk moun Filisti ak moun Arabi ki t'ap viv toupre ak moun Letiopi yo. Seyè a fè yo vin atake Joram.
17 and they went up against Juda, and prevailed against them, and took away all the store which they found in the house of the king, and his sons, and his daughters; and there was no son left to him but Ochozias the youngest of his sons.
Yo anvayi peyi Jida, yo piye palè wa a, yo fè tout madanm li yo prizonye ansanm ak tout pitit gason l' yo. Sèl pitit gason yo te kite pou li se te Joakaz, ti dènye a.
18 And after all these things the Lord struck him in the bowels with an incurable disease.
Apre sa, Seyè a voye yon sèl maladi vant sou li ki pa t' ka geri.
19 And it continued from day to day: and when the time of the days came [to] two years, his bowels fell out with the disease, and he died by a grievous distemper: and his people performed no funeral, like the funeral of his fathers.
Pandan dezan maladi a t'ap minen l', trip li yo soti, li t'ap soufri anpil lè li mouri. Pèp la pa t' limen boukan pou li jan yo te fè l' pou zansèt li yo.
20 He was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he departed without honor, and was buried in the city of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
Joram te gen tranndezan lè li moute wa, li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan witan. Pesonn pa t' pran lapenn pou li lè li mouri. Yo antere l' nan lavil David la, men yo pa mete l' nan tonm wa yo.
