1 Chronicles 22
1 Then David said, This is the house of Jehovah God, and this is the altar of burnt offering for Israel.
Konsa David te di: “Sa se lakay SENYÈ a, Bondye a, e sa se lotèl ofrann brile pou Israël la.”
2 And David commanded to gather together the sojourners that were in the land of Israel. And he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.
Pou sa, David te bay lòd pou ranmase tout etranje ki te nan peyi Israël yo. Konsa, li te mete taye wòch nan travay pou koupe wòch pou bati kay Bondye a.
3 And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the couplings, and brass in abundance without weight,
David te prepare yon gran kantite fè pou fè klou pou pòt pòtay yo ak pou kranpon yo e plis bwonz ki ta kab peze yo.
4 and cedar trees without number. For the Sidonians and those of Tyre brought cedar trees in abundance to David.
Epi twòn bwa sèd yo te depase kontwòl, paske Sidonyen yo avèk Tyriens yo te mennen gran kantite a twòn bwa sèd yo kote David.
5 And David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built for Jehovah must be exceedingly magnificent, of fame and of glory throughout all countries. I will therefore make preparation for it. So David prepared abundantly before his death.
David te di: “Fis mwen, Salomon jèn, epi manke eksperyans. Epi kay k ap bati pou SENYÈ a va tèlman ekstrawòdinè, byen koni toupatou, e k ap renome pou glwa li nan tout peyi yo. Se pou sa ke mwen va fè preparasyon pou li.” Konsa, David te fè anpil preparasyon avan l te mouri.
6 Then he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build a house for Jehovah, the God of Israel.
Alò, li te rele fis li a, Salomon e te òdone li pou bati yon kay pou non SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la.
7 And David said to Solomon his son, As for me, it was in my heart to build a house to the name of Jehovah my God.
David te di a Salomon: “Fis mwen, mwen te gen entansyon pou bati yon kay a non SENYÈ a, Bondye mwen an.
8 But the word of Jehovah came to me, saying, Thou have shed blood abundantly, and have made great wars. Thou shall not build a house to my name because thou have shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.
Men pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di: Ou gen tan vèse anpil san, e te fè gwo lagè sou latè. Ou pa p bati yon kay pou non mwen, akoz ou te vèse anpil san sou latè devan zye m.
9 Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest. And I will give him rest from all his enemies round about, for his name shall be Solomon. And I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days.
Men gade byen, youn fis ki va ne a ou menm yo, va yon moun lapè. Konsa, Mwen va bay li repo soti nan tout lènmi li yo nan tout kote. Paske non li va Salomon e mwen va bay lapè avèk kalm an Israël nan jou pa li yo.
10 He shall build a house for my name. And he shall be my son, and I will be his father, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.
Li va bati yon kay pou non Mwen. Li va fis Mwen e Mwen va papa li. Konsa, mwen va etabli twòn wayòm li sou Israël jis pou tout tan.
11 Now, my son, Jehovah be with thee, and prosper thou, and build the house of Jehovah thy God as he has spoken concerning thee.
Koulye a, fis mwen an, ke SENYÈ a kapab avèk ou, pou ou kapab byen reyisi, e bati lakay SENYÈ a, Bondye pa w la, jis jan ke li te pale selon ou menm nan.
12 Only Jehovah give thee discretion and understanding, and give thee charge concerning Israel, so that thou may keep the law of Jehovah thy God.
Sèlman ke SENYÈ a ta kapab bay ou sajès avèk konprann pou fè ou renye sou Israël, pou ou kapab kenbe lalwa a SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a.
13 Then thou shall prosper, if thou observe to do the statutes and the ordinances which Jehovah charged Moses with concerning Israel. Be strong, and of good courage. Fear not, neither be dismayed.
Konsa, ou va byen reyisi, si ou fè atansyon pou swiv règleman avèk lòd ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse selon Israël yo. Kenbe fèm e pran kouraj. Pa dekouraje, ni pa krent anyen.
14 Now, behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the house of Jehovah a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a million talents of silver, and of brass and iron without weight, for it is in abundance. Also I have prepared timber and stone, and thou may add thereto.
Alò, gade byen, avèk gwo lapèn mwen te prepare pou lakay SENYÈ a, san-mil talan lò, yon-milyon talan ajan e bwonz avèk fè ki depase peze, akoz yo tèlman anpil. Anplis, gran twòn bwa avèk wòch ke m te prepare, e ou gen dwa mete sou yo toujou.
15 Moreover there are workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all men who are skilful in every manner of work.
Anplis, gen anpil ouvriye ki avèk ou, tayè wòch, avèk mason ak chapant e tout mesye ak kapasite nan tout kalite mendèv.
16 Of the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron, there is no number. Arise and be doing, and Jehovah be with thee.
Selon lò, ajan ak bwonz avèk fè, nanpwen limit. Leve, fè travay ou e ke SENYÈ a kapab avèk ou.”
17 David also commanded all the rulers of Israel to help Solomon his son, saying,
Anplis, David te kòmande tout chèf Israël yo pou ede fis li a, Salomon. Li te di:
18 Is not Jehovah your God with you? And has he not given you rest on every side? For he has delivered the inhabitants of the land into my hand, and the land is subdued before Jehovah, and before his people.
“Èske SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pa avèk nou? Konsa, èske Li pa t bannou repo sou tout kote? Paske Li te livre sila ki viv nan peyi yo nan men m, e peyi a soumèt nèt devan SENYÈ a ak devan pèp Li a.
19 Now set your heart and your soul to seek after Jehovah your God. Arise therefore, and build ye the sanctuary of Jehovah God, to bring the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of Jehovah.
Alò, bay kè nou avèk nanm nou pou chache SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Konsa, leve pou bati sanktiyè SENYÈ a, Bondye a, pou nou kapab pote lach akò SENYÈ a avèk veso sakre Bondye yo antre nan kay ki va bati pou non a SENYÈ a.”
