II Kings 18

Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign.
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.
Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's 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.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did.
Li te mache dwat devan Seyè a, li te fè menm jan ak David, zansèt li a.
He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he 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.
He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were 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'.
For he clave to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD 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.
And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served 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.
He smote the Philistines, even unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
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.
And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up 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.
And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was 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.
And the king of Assyria did carry away Israel unto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river 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.
Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear them, nor do 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'.
Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took 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.
And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
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.
And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house.
Ezekyas ba li tout ajan ki te nan Tanp Seyè a ak nan trezò palè a.
At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria.
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.
And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rab–shakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller's field.
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.
And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son 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.
And Rab–shakeh said unto them, Speak ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, 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?
Thou sayest, (but they are but vain words,) I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost 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?
Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto 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.
But if ye say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
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?
Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon 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.
How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots 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 pou jwenn cha lagè ak kavalye pou fè lagè?
Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up 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'.
Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah, unto Rab–shakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews' language in the ears 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.
But Rab–shakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss 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!
Then Rab–shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spake, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria:
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.
Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand:
Li voye di nou pa kite Ezekyas twonpe nou. Li pa ka sove nou tande.
Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
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.
Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat ye every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern:
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.
Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, The LORD will deliver us.
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.
Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Eske bondye lòt nasyon yo te delivre yo anba men wa peyi Lasiri a?
Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered 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'?
Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of mine hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem 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'?
But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.
Men pèp la pa louvri bouch reponn, yo pa di yon mo paske wa a te bay lòd pou pesonn pa reponn.
Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rab–shakeh.
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.
