2 Chronicles 10
1 Then Rehoboam went to Shechem: for to Sheche came all Israel to make him king.
Woboram moute lavil Sichèm, paske se la tout pèp Izrayèl la nèt te sanble pou fè li wa.
2 And when Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat heard it, (which was in Egypt, whither he had fled from the presence of Salomon the King) he returned out of Egypt.
Lè Jewoboram, pitit gason Nebat la, ki te nan peyi Lejip kote li te al kache pou Salomon an, pran nouvèl la, li kite peyi Lejip, li tounen lakay li.
3 And they sent and called him: so came Ieroboam and all Israel, and communed with Rehoboam, saying,
Moun branch fanmi ki nan nò peyi a voye chache l'. Yo tout ansanm, yo al jwenn Woboram, yo di l' konsa:
4 Thy father made our yoke grieuous: nowe therefore make thou the grieuous seruitude of thy father, and his sore yoke, that he put vpon vs, lighter, and we will serue thee.
-Papa ou te di anpil ak nou. Li te peze nou anpil. Koulye a, fè yon leve men pou nou. Kite nou viv yon ti jan pi alèz, n'a sèvi ou nèt ale.
5 And he sayde to them, Depart yet three dayes, then come againe vnto me. And the people departed.
Woboram di yo: -Tounen nan twa jou. Lè sa a, m'a ban nou repons. Epi moun yo al fè wout yo.
6 And King Rehoboam tooke counsel with the olde men that had stande before Salomon his father, while hee yet liued, saying, What counsell giue ye that I may answere this people?
Woboram menm al jwenn chèf fanmi ki te sèvi konseye pou Salomon, papa l', lè li t'ap viv la, li mande yo: -Kisa pou m' reponn pèp la? Ki konsèy nou ban mwen?
7 And they spake vnto him, saying, If thou be kinde to this people, and please them, and speake louing words to them, they will be thy seruants for euer.
Yo reponn li: -Si ou aji byen ak pèp la, si ou asepte fè sa yo mande ou la, si ou pale byen ak yo, y'ap toujou sèvi ou,
8 But hee left the counsel of the ancient men that they had giuen him, and tooke counsell of the yong men that were brought vp with him, and waited on him.
Men, Woboram pa koute konsèy granmoun yo te ba li a, li al jwenn jenn gason ki te leve ansanm avè l' yo, lèfini ki te toujou la pou ba l' konsèy tou.
9 And he sayd vnto them, What counsel giue ye, that we may answere this people, which haue spoken to mee, saying, Make the yoke which thy father did put vpon vs, lighter?
Li di yo: -Ki konsèy nou ta ban mwen? Kisa pou m' reponn pèp la k'ap mande m' pou m' fè yon leve men pou yo?
10 And the yong men that were brought vp with him, spake vnto him, saying, Thus shalt thou answere the people that spake to thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heauie, but make thou it lighter for vs: thus shalt thou say vnto them, My least part shalbe bigger then my fathers loines.
Jenn gason kanmarad li yo reponn li: -Men sa w'a di moun sa yo k'ap plenyen pou papa ou ki t'ap peze yo, epi k'ap mande ou fè yon leve men pou yo a. W'a di yo: Si papa m' te di ak nou, mwen menm m'ap pi di pase l'.
11 Now whereas my father did burden you with a grieuous yoke, I will yet increase your yoke: my father hath chastised you with roddes, but I will correct you with scourges.
Wi, w'a di yo: Papa m' t'ap peze nou anba chay lou, mwen menm se mete m'ap mete sou chay la anko. Papa m' te bat nou ak fwèt, mwen menm m'ap pase fwèt la anba sann pou m' bat nou.
12 Then Ieroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the King had appointed saying, Come againe to me the third day.
Twa jou apre vre, Jewoboram tounen ansanm ak tout moun Izrayèl yo vin jwenn wa Woboram, jan li te di yo a.
13 And the King answered them sharply: and King Rehoboam left the counsel of the ancient men,
Wa a pa koute konsèy granmoun yo, li pale di ak pèp la.
14 And spake to them after ye counsell of the yong men, saying, My father made your yoke grieuous, but I wil incease it: my father chastised you with rods, but I will correct you with scourges.
Li reponn yo jan jenn gason yo te ba l' konsèy la. Li di yo: -Papa m' te peze nou anba chay lou, mwen menm, m'ap mete sou chay n'ap pote deja a. Papa m' te bat nou ak fwèt, mwen menm, m'ap pase fwèt la anba sann pou nou.
15 So the king hearkened not vnto the people: for it was the ordinance of God that the Lord might performe his saying, which hee had spoken by Ahiiah the Shilonite to Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat.
Se konsa wa a pa t' asepte fè sa pèp la te mande l' la. Sa se travay Seyè a menm ki te vle pou sa li te voye Akija, pwofèt Silo a, al di Jewoboram, pitit Nebat la, rive vre.
16 So when all Isarael sawe that the King would not heare them, the people answered the King, saying, What portion haue we in Dauid? for we haue none inheritance in the sonue of Ishai. O Israel, euery man to your tents: now see to thine owne house, Dauid. So all Israel departed to their tents.
Lè pèp Izrayèl la wè wa a pa t' soti pou li fè sa yo te mande l' la, yo reponn wa a, yo di li: -Nou pa gen anyen pou nou wè ak David. Nou pa gen anyen pou n' separe ak pitit Izayi a. Nou menm pèp Izrayèl la, ann al lakay nou! Ann kite pitit David yo degaje yo pou kont yo ak fanmi yo! Se konsa moun pèp Izrayèl la vire do al lakay yo.
17 Howbeit Rehoboam reigned ouer the children of Israel, that dwelt in the cities of Iudah.
Yo kite Woboram pou li gouvènen sèlman sou moun ki rete nan pòsyon tè branch fanmi Jida a.
18 Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram that was ouer the tribute, and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that he died: then King Rehoboam made speede to get him vp to his charet, to flee to Ierusalem.
Apre sa, wa Woboram voye Adoram ki te reskonsab travay kòve yo al bò kote moun Izrayèl yo. Men, moun Izrayèl yo kalonnen li koutwòch jouk li mouri. Lè sa a, wa Woboram prese moute sou cha li, li kouri ale lavil Jerizalèm.
19 And Israel rebelled against the house of Dauid vnto this day.
Depi lè sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo vire do bay moun fanmi David yo jouk jounen jòdi a.
