2 Kings 24
1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years. Then he turned and rebelled against him.
Nan jou pa li yo, Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te monte e Jojakim te vin sèvitè li pandan twazan. Epi, konsa, li te vire fè rebèl kont li.
2 Yahweh sent against him bands of the Chaldeans, bands of the Syrians, bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to Yahweh’s word which he spoke by his servants the prophets.
SENYÈ a te voye kont li twoup a Kaldeyen yo, twoup a Siryen yo, twoup Moabit yo ak twoup Amonit yo. Li te voye yo kont Juda pou detwi li, selon pawòl ke SENYÈ a te pale pa sèvitè li yo, pwofèt yo.
3 Surely at the commandment of Yahweh this came on Judah, to remove them out of his sight for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did,
Anverite, sou kòmand SENYÈ a, li te rive Juda, pou retire yo devan zye Li akoz peche a Manassé yo selon tout sa ke li te fè yo,
4 and also for the innocent blood that he shed; for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and Yahweh would not pardon.
anplis, ak san inosan li te vèse yo. Paske li te ranpli Jérusalem avèk san inosan e SENYÈ a pa t padone sa.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Jojakim yo avèk tout sa ke li te fè yo, èske yo pa ekri nan Liv Kwonik A Wa Juda Yo?
6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers, and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.
Konsa, Jojakim te dòmi avèk papa zansèt li yo e Jojakin, fis li a, te vin wa nan plas li.
7 The king of Egypt didn’t come out of his land any more; for the king of Babylon had taken, from the brook of Egypt to the river Euphrates, all that belonged to the king of Egypt.
Wa Égypte la pa t sòti nan peyi li ankò, paske wa Babylone nan te kaptire tout sa ki te pou wa Égypte la soti nan flèv Égypte la jis rive nan Rivyè Euphrate la.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s name was Nehushta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Jojakin te gen di-zuit ane lè li te devni wa e li te renye twa mwa Jérusalem. Non manman li se te Néhuschtha, fi a Elnathan an Jérusalem.
9 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, according to all that his father had done.
Li te fè mal nan zye a SENYÈ a, selon tout sa ke papa li te konn fè yo.
10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up to Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.
Nan tan sa a, sèvitè a wa Babylone yo te monte Jérusalem e vil la te antre anba syèj.
11 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to the city while his servants were besieging it,
Epi Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan te rive nan vil la pandan sèvitè li yo t ap fè syèj li.
12 and Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon—he, his mother, his servants, his princes, and his officers; and the king of Babylon captured him in the eighth year of his reign.
Jojakin, wa Juda a, te sòti kote wa a Babylone nan, li menm avèk manman li, sèvitè li yo avèk kapitèn li yo ak ofisye li yo. Konsa, wa a Babylone nan te pran li an kaptivite nan uityèm ane règn pa li a.
13 He carried out from there all the treasures of Yahweh’s house and the treasures of the king’s house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in Yahweh’s temple, as Yahweh had said.
Li te pote fè sòti depi la, tout trezò lakay SENYÈ a ak trezò lakay wa a. Li te koupe an mòso tout veso lò ke Salomon, wa Israël la, te fè nan tanp SENYÈ a, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te di a.
14 He carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valor, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths. No one remained except the poorest people of the land.
Konsa, li te mennen an egzil tout Jérusalem avèk tout kapitèn ak tout moun avèk gwo kouraj yo; di-mil kaptif, avèk tout mèt ouvriye ak tout sila ki konn fòme oswa fonn metal yo.
15 He carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, with the king’s mother, the king’s wives, his officers, and the chief men of the land. He carried them into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Konsa, li te mennen Jokajin sòti an egzil Babylone, anplis, manman a wa a avèk madanm li yo, ofisye li yo ak tout mesye ki te chèf dirijan peyi yo. Li te mennen yo ale an egzil soti Jérusalem jis rive Babylone.
16 All the men of might, even seven thousand, and the craftsmen and the smiths one thousand, all of them strong and fit for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
Tout mesye gwo kouraj ak pwisans yo, sèt-mil, mèt ouvriye yo, mil, tout te plen avèk fòs e pare pou fè lagè. Tout sila yo, wa Babylone nan te mennen an egzil Babylone.
17 The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s father’s brother, king in his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
Epi wa Babylone nan te fè tonton Jokajin nan, Matthania, wa nan plas li e li te chanje non li an Sédécias.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Sédécias te gen laj a venteyen ane lè l te devni wa a, e li te renye pandan onzan Jérusalem. Non manman li se te Hamuthal, fis a Jérémie an nan Libna.
19 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
Li te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a, selon tout sa ke Jojakim te konn fè yo.
20 For through the anger of Yahweh, this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Then Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Paske akoz kòlè SENYÈ a, tout sa te rive Jérusalem avèk Juda jiskaske Li te jete yo deyò prezans Li. Epi Sédécias te fè rebèl kont wa Babylone nan.
