1 Chronicles 22
1 Then David said, “Here shall be the house of the LORD God, as well as 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 So David gave orders to gather the foreigners in the land of Israel, from whom he appointed stonecutters to prepare finished stones for building 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 David provided a large quantity of iron to make the nails for the doors of the gateways and for the fittings, together with more bronze than could be weighed
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 more cedar logs than could be counted; for the Sidonians and Tyrians had brought a large quantity of cedar logs 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, “My son Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the LORD must be exceedingly magnificent—famous and glorious throughout all lands. Therefore I must make preparations for it.” So David made lavish preparations 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 David called for his son Solomon and instructed him to build a house for the LORD, 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 “My son,” said David to Solomon, “it was in my heart to build a house for the Name of the LORD 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 this word of the LORD came to me: ‘You have shed much blood and waged great wars. You are not to build a house for My Name because you have shed so much blood on the ground before Me.
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 But a son will be born to you who will be a man of rest. I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for his name will be Solomon, and I will grant to Israel peace and quiet during his reign.
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 is the one who will build a house for My Name. He will 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, may the LORD be with you, and may you succeed in building the house of the LORD your God, as He said you would.
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 Above all, may the LORD give you insight and understanding when He puts you in command over Israel, so that you may keep the Law of the LORD your 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 you will succeed, if you carefully follow the statutes and ordinances that the LORD commanded Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged.
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, I have taken great pains to provide for the house of the LORD—100,000 talents of gold, 1,000,000 talents of silver, and bronze and iron too great to be weighed. I have also provided timber and stone, and you may add to them.
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 You also have many workers: stonecutters, masons, carpenters, and men skilled in every kind 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 in gold and silver, bronze and iron—craftsmen beyond number. Now begin the work, and may the LORD be with you.”
Selon lò, ajan ak bwonz avèk fè, nanpwen limit. Leve, fè travay ou e ke SENYÈ a kapab avèk ou.”
17 Then David ordered all the leaders of Israel to help his son Solomon:
Anplis, David te kòmande tout chèf Israël yo pou ede fis li a, Salomon. Li te di:
18 “Is not the LORD your God with you, and has He not granted you rest on every side? For He has given the inhabitants of the land into my hand, and the land has been subdued before the LORD and 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 soul to seek the LORD your God. Get started building the sanctuary of the LORD God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD and the holy articles of God into the temple that will be built for the Name of the LORD.”
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.”
