2 Istwa 28-29
Haitian Creole Version
28 ¶ Akaz te gen ventan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan sèzan. Men, li pa t' fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a, Bondye li a, tankou David, zansèt li a, te fè l'.
2 Li te pito fè tankou wa peyi Izrayèl yo. Li menm rive fè estati an kwiv pou Baal yo.
3 Li fè boule lansan pou yo nan Fon Benninon an, li ofri pwòp pitit gason l' yo pou yo boule yo dapre vye prensip krimenèl nasyon Seyè a te mete deyò pou fè plas pou moun Izrayèl yo.
4 Li fè touye bèt, boule lansan nan tout tanp zidòl yo, sou ti mòn yo ak anba gwo pyebwa.
5 Poutèt tout bagay sa yo, Seyè a, Bondye Akaz la, lage l' nan men wa peyi Siri a. Moun Siri yo bat li. Yo fè anpil moun peyi a prizonye, yo mennen yo lavil Damas. Konsa tou, Seyè a lage l' nan men wa peyi Izrayèl la ki bat li byen bat.
6 ¶ Se konsa, yon sèl jou Peka, pitit Remalya, touye sanvenmil (120.000) sòlda, tout vanyan gason, nan peyi Jida a, paske pèp la te vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye zansèt yo a.
7 Zikri, yon vanyan sòlda peyi Efrayim, touye Maseja, pitit wa a, Azrikam, chèf palè a, ak Elkana, chèf ki vin apre wa a.
8 Atout moun peyi Jida yo te fanmi moun peyi Izrayèl yo, moun peyi Izrayèl yo fè desanmil (200.000) moun prizonye, fanm ak timoun, yo piye peyi a, yo pran yon pakèt bagay pote ale lavil Samari.
9 Nan lavil Samari te gen yon moun yo te rele Odèd ki te pwofèt Bondye. Li soti al kontre lame moun peyi Izrayèl yo ki t'ap rive lavil Samari. Li di yo: -Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, te fache sou moun peyi Jida yo. Se poutèt sa li lage yo nan men nou. Men koulye a, Bondye tande ki jan nou menm nou ansasinen yo ak raj.
10 Koulye a menm, nou soti pou nou fè moun peyi Jida ak moun lavil Jerizalèm yo tounen esklav pou sèvi nou. Men nou menm poutèt pa nou, lè nou fè sa, èske nou pa fè sa ki mal tou devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an?
11 Koute sa m'ap di nou: Prizonye sa yo se frè ak sè nou yo ye. Kite yo tounen lakay yo, paske se sou nou Seyè a move koulye a.
12 Lè sa a, kat nan gwo chèf moun peyi Efrayim yo: Azarya, pitit Jokanan, Berekya, pitit Mesilemòt, Ezekya, pitit Chaloum, ak Amasa, pitit Adlayi, leve dèyè moun ki te soti nan lagè yo.
13 Yo di yo: -Pa mennen prizonye sa yo isit la! Si nou fè sa n'ap antò devan Seyè a. Nou deja fè kont peche nou konsa, Seyè a tou move sou pèp Izrayèl la, pou n'ap vin mete ankò sou sa nou fè ki mal ak sou peche nou yo!
14 Se konsa sòlda yo renmèt prizonye yo ak tou sa yo te pran bay chèf yo ak tout pèp la.
15 Lè sa a, yo chwazi kat menm mesye sa yo pou yo reskonsab prizonye yo. Yo pran rad nan bagay sòlda yo te piye yo, yo mete sou moun ki te toutouni yo, yo biye yo, mete sapat nan pye yo, yo ba yo manje, yo ba yo bwè. Yo mete renmèd sou tout kote yo te blese. Yo fè tou sa ki te twò fèb yo moute bourik, yo mennen tout prizonye yo tounen lavil Jeriko, lavil Palmis yo, yo renmèt yo bay fanmi yo. Lèfini, yo tounen tounen yo lavil Samari.
16 ¶ Lè sa a, wa Akaz voye mande wa peyi Lasiri a sekou,
17 paske moun peyi Edon yo te fè yon pase nan peyi a ankò. Yo bat lame peyi Jida a, yo fè anpil moun prizonye.
18 Moun Filisti yo, bò pa yo menm, t'ap piye lavil peyi Jida yo ki te nan pye mòn yo ak nan zòn Negèv la. Yo pran pou yo lavil sa yo: Bètchemès, Ajalon, Gedewòt, Soko, Timna ak Gimzo ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki te sou zòd lavil sa yo. Yo rete ladan yo.
19 Seyè a te voye tout malè sa yo sou peyi Jida a poutèt Akaz, wa peyi Jida a, ki te pouse pèp la neglije Bondye yo a, epi ki poutèt pa l' te vire do bay Bondye nèt.
20 Men Tiglat Pilesè, wa peyi Lasiri a, vin atake wa Akaz pito. Pase pou l' ede l', li kraze l' pi mal.
21 Se konsa, Akaz pran dènye bagay ki gen valè nan kay Seyè a, nan palè wa a ak lakay chèf yo, li fè wa peyi Lasiri a kado. Men, sa pa t' sèvi l' anyen.
22 Pandan tout tan yo t'ap kraze l' konsa a, nonm yo bay pou wa Akaz la t'ap donnen pi mal nan pa sèvi Seyè a.
23 Li t'ap ofri bèt pou yo touye pou bondye moun lavil Damas yo ki te bat li. Li t'ap di nan kè l': Bondye wa peyi Siri yo te ede yo. Si mwen fè sèvis pou yo, y'a ede m' tou. Men se sèvis bondye sa yo menm ki lakòz malè rive ni li ni pèp Izrayèl la.
24 Akaz pran tout veso ki te nan Tanp Bondye a, li kraze yo an miyèt moso. Li kondannen pòt Tanp Seyè a. Li fè fè lòt lotèl pou lòt bondye yo toupatou nan lavil Jerizalèm.
25 Li bati tanp nan tout lavil ak ti bouk nan peyi Jida pou boule lansan pou lòt bondye yo. Se konsa li fè Seyè a, Bondye zansèt li yo, fache anpil sou li.
26 Tout rès istwa Akaz la ak tou sa li te fè depi premye jou li te moute wa a rive jouk dènye jou a, n'a jwenn tou sa ekri nan Liv Istwa wa peyi Jida ak wa peyi Izrayèl yo.
27 Lè li mouri, yo antere l' lavil Jerizalèm, men yo pa t' mete l' nan tonm wa Izrayèl yo. Se Ezekyas, pitit li, ki moute wa nan plas li.
29 ¶ Ezekyas te gen vennsenkan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan ventnevan. Manman l' te rele Abija. Se te pitit fi Zakari.
2 Ezekyas te fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a tankou David, zansèt li a, te fè l'.
3 Ezekyas te gen yon mwa depi li te wa, lè li louvri tout pòt nan Tanp Seyè a. Li fè repare yo.
4 Lèfini, li fè chache tout prèt yo ak moun Levi yo, li reyini yo sou lakou ki bay sou bò solèy leve nan Tanp lan.
5 Li di yo: -Nou menm fanmi Levi yo, koute sa m'ap di nou: mete nou nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Seyè a. Mete Tanp Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, nan kondisyon pou yo ka fè sèvis ladan l' pou li. Wete tout vye bagay yo te mete ladan l' kifè li pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye a.
6 Zansèt nou yo pa t' kenbe pawòl yo ak Bondye. Yo te fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, yo vire do ba li. Yo pa t' okipe Tanp kote Seyè a rete a ankò. Yo pa gade l' menm!
7 Yo kondannen tout pòt nan Tanp lan, yo kite lanp yo mouri, yo sispann boule lansan, yo sispann boule bèt nan Tanp lan pou Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
8 Se poutèt sa Seyè a te fache anpil sou peyi Jida ak sou lavil Jerizalèm. Tout moun te sezi, tout moun te pè lè yo wè sa ki rive yo, tout moun t'ap pase yo nan betiz, tankou nou wè l' nou menm ak pwòp je nou tou.
9 Yo touye papa nou yo nan lagè. Yo fè madanm ak pitit nou yo prizonye.
10 Se konsa mwen pran desizyon jòdi a pou m' pase yon kontra ak Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, pou li ka pa janm move sou nou ankò.
11 Koulye a, pitit mwen yo, souke kò nou. Se nou menm Seyè a te chwazi pou toujou kanpe devan l', pou sèvi l', pou fè travay li, pou boule lansan pou li.
12 ¶ Men moun Levi ki vin pote tèt yo an premye: Nan branch fanmi Keyat la, se te Makat, pitit Amasayi ak Joèl, pitit Azarya. Nan branch fanmi Merari a, se te Kich, pitit Abdi ak Azarya, pitit Jealelèl. Nan branch fanmi Gèchon an, se te Joak, pitit Zimna ak Edèn, pitit Joak.
13 Nan branch fanmi Elizafan an, se te Chimri ak Jeiyèl. Nan branch fanmi Asaf la, se te Zekaraja ak Matanya.
14 Nan branch fanmi Eyman an, se te Jeiyèl ak Chimeyi. Nan branch fanmi Jedoutoun lan, se te Chemaja ak Ouziyèl.
15 Mesye sa yo reyini tout fanmi yo, yo fè sèvis pou yo ka nan kondisyon sèvi Bondye. Lèfini, yo antre nan Tanp lan pou mete l' nan kondisyon sèvi Bondye, jan wa a te ba yo lòd la, dapre sa ki nan lalwa Seyè a.
16 Prèt yo antre anndan Tanp lan pou mete l' nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Yo pran tout vye bagay yo jwenn ladan l', yo pote yo deyò nan lakou Tanp lan. Moun Levi yo menm ranmase yo nan lakou a, yo al jete yo nan ravin Sedwon an.
17 Yo konmanse travay la premye jou premye mwa a. Sou wit jou, yo te rive anndan kote ki apa pou Bondye nan Tanp lan. Yo travay pandan wit jou ankò. Sou sèzyèm jou mwa a yo te fini nèt ak travay pou mete Tanp lan nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye ankò.
18 Lè yo fini, moun Levi yo ale lakay wa Ezekyas, yo di l': -Monwa, nou fin travay la, nou mete tout kay Seyè a, lotèl pou boule ofrann yo ak tout batri ki mache avè l' yo, tab pou pen yo mete apa pou Seyè a ak tout batri pa l' yo tou, nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye ankò.
19 Nou pran tout veso wa Akaz te detounen yo pandan tout tan li te vire do bay Bondye a, nou repare yo, nou mete yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye ankò. Koulye a, yo tout devan lotèl Seyè a.
20 ¶ Nan denmen maten, byen bonè, wa Ezekyas leve, li reyini tout chèf lavil la, li moute ak yo nan Tanp Seyè a.
21 Yo mennen sèt ti towo, sèt belye mouton, sèt ti mouton, sèt bouk kabrit, yo ofri yo pou peye pou sa fanmi wa a ak tout moun pèp Jida yo te fè ki mal ak pou sa moun te fè ki mal nan Tanp lan. Wa a mande prèt yo, moun fanmi Arawon yo, pou yo touye bèt yo sou lotèl Seyè a.
22 Prèt yo touye towo yo anvan, yo ranmase tout san an nan yon veso, yo al vide l' sou lotèl la. Apre sa, yo touye belye mouton yo, yo al vide san yo sou lotèl la. Apre sa ankò, yo touye ti mouton yo, yo al vide san yo sou lotèl la tou.
23 Lè yo fini, yo mennen bouk kabrit yo te ofri pou peche yo devan wa a ansanm ak lòt moun ki te la yo pou yo mete men yo sou tèt bèt yo.
24 Lè yo fin fè sa, prèt yo touye bouk kabrit yo, yo vide san yo sou lotèl la tankou yon ofrann pou peche yo. Yo ofri yo bay Bondye pou mande padon pou peche tout pèp Izrayèl la, paske wa a te bay lòd pou yo te boule ofrann lan pou tout pèp Izrayèl la.
25 Wa Ezekyas mete moun Levi nan Tanp Seyè a avèk senbal, bandjo ak gita, dapre regleman David, Gad, pwofèt wa a ansanm ak pwofèt Natan te bay, paske tout lòd Seyè a vle bay, se nan bouch pwofèt li yo li toujou mete yo.
26 Moun Levi yo al nan plas yo ak enstriman mizik David yo. Prèt yo te la tou ak twonpèt yo.
27 Ezekyas bay lòd pou yo boule ofrann yo nèt sou lotèl la. Lè yo konmanse seremoni an, pèp la pran chante pou Seyè a, yo t'ap kònen twonpèt anmenmtan yo t'ap jwe lòt enstriman mizik David, wa peyi Izrayèl la.
28 Tout moun ki te la yo mete ajenou, mizisyen yo t'ap chante, yo t'ap kònen twonpèt pandan tout seremoni boule a.
29 Lè yo fin boule ofrann yo sou lotèl la, wa a ak tout moun ki te la yo mete ajenou, yo bese tèt yo jouk atè devan Bondye.
30 Apre sa, wa Ezekyas ak lòt chèf yo mande moun Levi yo pou yo chante pou Seyè a chante David ak pwofèt Asaf te ekri pou fè lwanj Seyè a. Se konsa tout moun t'ap chante ak kè kontan, antan yo te ajenou ak tèt yo bese jouk atè.
31 Lè sa a, Ezekyas di pèp la: -Koulye a nou menm ki mete tèt nou apa pou fè sèvis Seyè a, pwoche non! Pote ofrann nou ansanm ak bèt pou yo touye pou di Bondye mèsi. Se konsa tout pèp la pote bèt pou yo touye ak lòt ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi. Gen ladan yo ki te ofri bèt pou yo boule nèt pou Bondye paske yo te vle fè l'.
32 Yo mennen swasanndis towo, san belye mouton ak desan (200) ti mouton pou yo te boule nèt pou Seyè a.
33 Konsa tou, yo ofri sisan (600) towo, twamil (3.000) mouton pou yo touye pou Bondye.
34 Men prèt yo pa t' anpil, yo pa t' ka kòche tout bèt yo te ofri pou boule nèt yo. Se moun Levi yo, moun menm fanmi ak yo, ki te vin ede yo fin fè travay la, jouk lòt prèt yo te fin mete yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye a, paske moun Levi yo te pi prese mete yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye a pase prèt yo.
35 Lèfini, san konte tout bèt yo te touye pou boule nèt pou Seyè a, prèt yo te gen pou ofri bay Bondye grès lòt bèt yo te touye pou mande Bondye padon ak ofrann diven ki mache ak bèt yo boule nèt pou Seyè a. Se konsa yo konmanse ankò ap fè sèvis pou Bondye nan Tanp lan.
36 Wa Ezekyas ak tout pèp la te kontan deske Bondye te penmèt yo fè tou sa san pèdi twòp tan.

2 Chronicles 28-29
New International Version
Ahaz King of Judah(A)
28 Ahaz(B) was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. Unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord. 2 He followed the ways of the kings of Israel and also made idols(C) for worshiping the Baals. 3 He burned sacrifices in the Valley of Ben Hinnom(D) and sacrificed his children(E) in the fire, engaging in the detestable(F) practices of the nations the Lord had driven out before the Israelites. 4 He offered sacrifices and burned incense at the high places, on the hilltops and under every spreading tree.
5 Therefore the Lord his God delivered him into the hands of the king of Aram.(G) The Arameans defeated him and took many of his people as prisoners and brought them to Damascus.
He was also given into the hands of the king of Israel, who inflicted heavy casualties on him. 6 In one day Pekah(H) son of Remaliah killed a hundred and twenty thousand soldiers in Judah(I)—because Judah had forsaken the Lord, the God of their ancestors. 7 Zikri, an Ephraimite warrior, killed Maaseiah the king’s son, Azrikam the officer in charge of the palace, and Elkanah, second to the king. 8 The men of Israel took captive from their fellow Israelites who were from Judah(J) two hundred thousand wives, sons and daughters. They also took a great deal of plunder, which they carried back to Samaria.(K)
9 But a prophet of the Lord named Oded was there, and he went out to meet the army when it returned to Samaria. He said to them, “Because the Lord, the God of your ancestors, was angry(L) with Judah, he gave them into your hand. But you have slaughtered them in a rage that reaches to heaven.(M) 10 And now you intend to make the men and women of Judah and Jerusalem your slaves.(N) But aren’t you also guilty of sins against the Lord your God? 11 Now listen to me! Send back your fellow Israelites you have taken as prisoners, for the Lord’s fierce anger rests on you.(O)”
12 Then some of the leaders in Ephraim—Azariah son of Jehohanan, Berekiah son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah son of Shallum, and Amasa son of Hadlai—confronted those who were arriving from the war. 13 “You must not bring those prisoners here,” they said, “or we will be guilty before the Lord. Do you intend to add to our sin and guilt? For our guilt is already great, and his fierce anger rests on Israel.”
14 So the soldiers gave up the prisoners and plunder in the presence of the officials and all the assembly. 15 The men designated by name took the prisoners, and from the plunder they clothed all who were naked. They provided them with clothes and sandals, food and drink,(P) and healing balm. All those who were weak they put on donkeys. So they took them back to their fellow Israelites at Jericho, the City of Palms,(Q) and returned to Samaria.(R)
16 At that time King Ahaz sent to the kings[a] of Assyria(S) for help. 17 The Edomites(T) had again come and attacked Judah and carried away prisoners,(U) 18 while the Philistines(V) had raided towns in the foothills and in the Negev of Judah. They captured and occupied Beth Shemesh, Aijalon(W) and Gederoth,(X) as well as Soko,(Y) Timnah(Z) and Gimzo, with their surrounding villages. 19 The Lord had humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel,[b] for he had promoted wickedness in Judah and had been most unfaithful(AA) to the Lord. 20 Tiglath-Pileser[c](AB) king of Assyria(AC) came to him, but he gave him trouble(AD) instead of help.(AE) 21 Ahaz(AF) took some of the things from the temple of the Lord and from the royal palace and from the officials and presented them to the king of Assyria, but that did not help him.(AG)
22 In his time of trouble King Ahaz became even more unfaithful(AH) to the Lord. 23 He offered sacrifices to the gods(AI) of Damascus, who had defeated him; for he thought, “Since the gods of the kings of Aram have helped them, I will sacrifice to them so they will help me.”(AJ) But they were his downfall and the downfall of all Israel.(AK)
24 Ahaz gathered together the furnishings(AL) from the temple of God(AM) and cut them in pieces. He shut the doors(AN) of the Lord’s temple and set up altars(AO) at every street corner in Jerusalem. 25 In every town in Judah he built high places to burn sacrifices to other gods and aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of his ancestors.
26 The other events of his reign and all his ways, from beginning to end, are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 27 Ahaz rested(AP) with his ancestors and was buried(AQ) in the city of Jerusalem, but he was not placed in the tombs of the kings of Israel. And Hezekiah his son succeeded him as king.
Hezekiah Purifies the Temple(AR)
29 Hezekiah(AS) was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Abijah daughter of Zechariah. 2 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father David(AT) had done.
3 In the first month of the first year of his reign, he opened the doors of the temple of the Lord and repaired(AU) them. 4 He brought in the priests and the Levites, assembled them in the square on the east side 5 and said: “Listen to me, Levites! Consecrate(AV) yourselves now and consecrate the temple of the Lord, the God of your ancestors. Remove all defilement from the sanctuary. 6 Our parents(AW) were unfaithful;(AX) they did evil in the eyes of the Lord our God and forsook him. They turned their faces away from the Lord’s dwelling place and turned their backs on him. 7 They also shut the doors of the portico and put out the lamps. They did not burn incense(AY) or present any burnt offerings at the sanctuary to the God of Israel. 8 Therefore, the anger of the Lord has fallen on Judah and Jerusalem; he has made them an object of dread and horror(AZ) and scorn,(BA) as you can see with your own eyes. 9 This is why our fathers have fallen by the sword and why our sons and daughters and our wives are in captivity.(BB) 10 Now I intend to make a covenant(BC) with the Lord, the God of Israel, so that his fierce anger(BD) will turn away from us. 11 My sons, do not be negligent now, for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him and serve him,(BE) to minister(BF) before him and to burn incense.”
12 Then these Levites(BG) set to work:
from the Kohathites,
Mahath son of Amasai and Joel son of Azariah;
from the Merarites,
Kish son of Abdi and Azariah son of Jehallelel;
from the Gershonites,
Joah son of Zimmah and Eden(BH) son of Joah;
13 from the descendants of Elizaphan,(BI)
Shimri and Jeiel;
from the descendants of Asaph,(BJ)
Zechariah and Mattaniah;
14 from the descendants of Heman,
Jehiel and Shimei;
from the descendants of Jeduthun,
Shemaiah and Uzziel.
15 When they had assembled their fellow Levites and consecrated themselves, they went in to purify(BK) the temple of the Lord, as the king had ordered, following the word of the Lord. 16 The priests went into the sanctuary of the Lord to purify it. They brought out to the courtyard of the Lord’s temple everything unclean that they found in the temple of the Lord. The Levites took it and carried it out to the Kidron Valley.(BL) 17 They began the consecration on the first day of the first month, and by the eighth day of the month they reached the portico of the Lord. For eight more days they consecrated the temple of the Lord itself, finishing on the sixteenth day of the first month.
18 Then they went in to King Hezekiah and reported: “We have purified the entire temple of the Lord, the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the table for setting out the consecrated bread, with all its articles. 19 We have prepared and consecrated all the articles(BM) that King Ahaz removed in his unfaithfulness while he was king. They are now in front of the Lord’s altar.”
20 Early the next morning King Hezekiah gathered the city officials together and went up to the temple of the Lord. 21 They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven male lambs and seven male goats(BN) as a sin offering[d](BO) for the kingdom, for the sanctuary and for Judah. The king commanded the priests, the descendants of Aaron, to offer these on the altar of the Lord. 22 So they slaughtered the bulls, and the priests took the blood and splashed it against the altar; next they slaughtered the rams and splashed their blood against the altar; then they slaughtered the lambs and splashed their blood(BP) against the altar. 23 The goats(BQ) for the sin offering were brought before the king and the assembly, and they laid their hands(BR) on them. 24 The priests then slaughtered the goats and presented their blood on the altar for a sin offering to atone(BS) for all Israel, because the king had ordered the burnt offering and the sin offering for all Israel.(BT)
25 He stationed the Levites in the temple of the Lord with cymbals, harps and lyres in the way prescribed by David(BU) and Gad(BV) the king’s seer and Nathan the prophet; this was commanded by the Lord through his prophets. 26 So the Levites stood ready with David’s instruments,(BW) and the priests with their trumpets.(BX)
27 Hezekiah gave the order to sacrifice the burnt offering on the altar. As the offering began, singing to the Lord began also, accompanied by trumpets and the instruments(BY) of David king of Israel. 28 The whole assembly bowed in worship, while the musicians played and the trumpets sounded. All this continued until the sacrifice of the burnt offering(BZ) was completed.
29 When the offerings were finished, the king and everyone present with him knelt down and worshiped.(CA) 30 King Hezekiah and his officials ordered the Levites to praise the Lord with the words of David and of Asaph the seer. So they sang praises with gladness and bowed down and worshiped.
31 Then Hezekiah said, “You have now dedicated yourselves to the Lord. Come and bring sacrifices(CB) and thank offerings to the temple of the Lord.” So the assembly brought sacrifices and thank offerings, and all whose hearts were willing(CC) brought burnt offerings.
32 The number of burnt offerings(CD) the assembly brought was seventy bulls, a hundred rams and two hundred male lambs—all of them for burnt offerings to the Lord. 33 The animals consecrated as sacrifices amounted to six hundred bulls and three thousand sheep and goats. 34 The priests, however, were too few to skin all the burnt offerings;(CE) so their relatives the Levites helped them until the task was finished and until other priests had been consecrated,(CF) for the Levites had been more conscientious in consecrating themselves than the priests had been. 35 There were burnt offerings in abundance, together with the fat(CG) of the fellowship offerings(CH) and the drink offerings(CI) that accompanied the burnt offerings.
So the service of the temple of the Lord was reestablished. 36 Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced at what God had brought about for his people, because it was done so quickly.(CJ)

17 ¶ Apre Jezi fin pale konsa, li leve je l' anlè nan syèl la, li di: O Papa, lè a rive. Fè yo wè bèl pouvwa Pitit la, pou Pitit la ka fè yo wè bèl pouvwa ou la tou.
2 Ou te ba l' otorite sou tout moun pou l' te kapab bay tout moun ou ba li yo lavi ki p'ap janm fini an.
3 Lavi ki p'ap janm fini an, se pou yo konnen ou, ou menm ki sèl Bondye tout bon an, ansanm ak moun ou voye a: Jezikri.
4 Mwen te fè yo wè bèl pouvwa ou sou tè sa a. Mwen fè tou sa ou te ban m' fè.
5 Koulye a, Papa, ban mwen bèl pouvwa devan je ou, menm pouvwa mwen te genyen lè m' te avè ou la depi anvan ou te kreye tout bagay.
6 ¶ Moun ou te mete apa nan lemonn pou mwen yo, mwen fè yo konnen ki moun ou ye. Se pou ou yo te ye. Se ou menm ki te ban mwen yo. Epi yo kenbe pawòl ou.
7 Koulye a, yo konnen tou sa ou ban mwen se nan men ou yo soti.
8 Paske mwen ba yo pawòl ou te ban mwen an. Yo resevwa li. Yo rekonèt mwen soti tout bon bò kote ou, yo kwè se ou ki voye m' vre.
9 M'ap lapriyè pou yo. Mwen p'ap lapriyè pou moun lemonn yo, men pou moun ou ban mwen yo, paske se pou ou yo ye.
10 Tou sa m' genyen se pou ou, tou sa ou genyen se pou mwen. Pouvwa mwen parèt aklè nan yo.
11 ¶ Mwen pa nan lemonn lan ankò. Men yo menm, yo nan lemonn lan toujou. Mwen menm, m'ap vin jwenn ou. Papa, ou menm ki apa, pwoteje yo pa pouvwa non ou, menm non ou te ban mwen an, pou yo ka fè yon sèl menm jan ou fè yon sèl avèk mwen.
12 Pandan m' te la avèk yo, mwen te pwoteje yo ak pouvwa non ou, menm non ou te ban mwen an. Mwen te pwoteje yo: yo yonn pa t' pèdi, esepte nonm ki pou te pèdi a, pou sa ki te ekri nan Liv la rive vre.
13 Koulye a, m'ap vin jwenn ou. M'ap pale konsa pandan m' sou latè a, pou jan kè m' kontan an se konsa pou kè yo ka kontan tou nèt ale.
14 Mwen te ba yo pawòl ou; lemonn rayi yo paske yo menm yo pa moun lemonn, menm jan mwen menm mwen pa moun lemonn.
15 Mwen pa mande ou pou wete yo nan lemonn lan, men pou ou pwoteje yo anba Satan.
16 Yo pa moun lemonn, menm jan mwen pa moun lemonn.
17 ¶ Fè yo viv pou ou nèt gremesi verite a. Pawòl ou se verite a.
18 Mwen voye yo nan lemonn lan menm jan ou te voye m' nan lemonn lan.
19 Se pou yo m'ap viv jan ou vle l' la, pou yo menm tou yo ka viv jan ou vle l' la, gremesi verite a.
20 ¶ Se pa pou yo sèlman m'ap lapriyè, men pou tout moun ki va mete konfyans yo nan mwen lè y'a tande mesaj la.
21 M'ap lapriyè pou yo tout fè yon sèl. Papa, se pou yo tout fè yonn ansanm ak nou, menm jan ou menm ou nan mwen, mwen menm mwen nan ou. Se pou yo tout fè yon sèl pou moun ki nan lemonn yo ka kwè se ou ki te voye mwen.
22 Mwen te ba yo menm pouvwa ou te ban mwen an, pou yo tout te ka fè yonn menm jan ou fè yon sèl avè m' tou:
23 mwen nan yo, ou nan mwen, pou yo tout fè yon sèl nèt ale, pou moun ki nan lemonn yo ka rive rekonèt se ou ki te voye m', pou yo ka rive konnen ou renmen yo menm jan ou renmen m' lan.
24 ¶ Papa, se ou ki te ban mwen yo. Mwen ta vle pou yo toujou avè m' kote m' prale a, pou yo ka wè pouvwa mwen, pouvwa ou te ban mwen an, paske ou te renmen m' depi lontan anvan ou te kreye tout bagay.
25 O Papa, ou menm ki fè tout bagay byen, moun ki nan lemonn yo pa konnen ou. Men mwen menm, mwen konnen ou. Moun sa yo konnen se ou ki te voye mwen.
26 Mwen te fè yo konnen ki moun ou ye. M'ap kontinye fè sa toujou, pou kalite renmen ou gen pou mwen an ka nan yo, pou mwen menm mwen ka nan yo tou.

John 17
New International Version
Jesus Prays to Be Glorified
17 After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven(A) and prayed:
“Father, the hour has come.(B) Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.(C) 2 For you granted him authority over all people(D) that he might give eternal life(E) to all those you have given him.(F) 3 Now this is eternal life: that they know you,(G) the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.(H) 4 I have brought you glory(I) on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do.(J) 5 And now, Father, glorify me(K) in your presence with the glory I had with you(L) before the world began.(M)
Jesus Prays for His Disciples
6 “I have revealed you[a](N) to those whom you gave me(O) out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. 7 Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you. 8 For I gave them the words you gave me(P) and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you,(Q) and they believed that you sent me.(R) 9 I pray for them.(S) I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me,(T) for they are yours. 10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine.(U) And glory has come to me through them. 11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world,(V) and I am coming to you.(W) Holy Father, protect them by the power of[b] your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one(X) as we are one.(Y) 12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by[c] that name you gave me. None has been lost(Z) except the one doomed to destruction(AA) so that Scripture would be fulfilled.(AB)
13 “I am coming to you now,(AC) but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy(AD) within them. 14 I have given them your word and the world has hated them,(AE) for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world.(AF) 15 My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.(AG) 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of it.(AH) 17 Sanctify them by[d] the truth; your word is truth.(AI) 18 As you sent me into the world,(AJ) I have sent them into the world.(AK) 19 For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.(AL)
Jesus Prays for All Believers
20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one,(AM) Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.(AN) May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.(AO) 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me,(AP) that they may be one as we are one(AQ)— 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me(AR) and have loved them(AS) even as you have loved me.
24 “Father, I want those you have given me(AT) to be with me where I am,(AU) and to see my glory,(AV) the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.(AW)
25 “Righteous Father, though the world does not know you,(AX) I know you, and they know that you have sent me.(AY) 26 I have made you[e] known to them,(AZ) and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them(BA) and that I myself may be in them.”
