1 Chronicles 28
1 And David got together at Jerusalem all the rulers of Israel, the chiefs of the tribes and the captains of the divisions waiting on the king in turn, and the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds and the controllers of all the goods and property of the king and his sons, with the unsexed servants and the great men of war.
David loh Israel mangpa boeih, koca kah mangpa rhoek, manghai taengah aka thotat rhoek kah boelnah mangpa rhoek, thawng khat kah mangpa rhoek, yakhat kah mangpa rhoek, khuehtawn boeih kah mangpa rhoek, manghai kah boiva neh imkhoem taengkah a ca rhoek khaw, hlangrhalh rhoek neh Jerusalem kah tatthai hlangrhalh boeih te khaw a tingtun sak.
2 Then David the king got up and said, Give ear to me, my brothers and my people; it was my desire to put up a house, a resting-place for the ark of the Lord's agreement, and for the foot-rest of our God; and I had got material ready for the building of it.
Te phoeiah David manghai te a kho neh pai tih, “Ka manuca neh ka pilnam rhoek kai ol he hnatun uh, kai he ka thinko ah tah BOEIPA paipi thingkawng kah duemnah neh mamih Pathen kho kah khotloeng ham im sa la ka cai tih sak ham ka sikim coeng.
3 But God said to me, You are not to be the builder of a house for my name, because you are a man of war and have taken life;
Tedae Pathen loh kai taengah, 'Ka ming ham te im na sa mahpawh, nang tah caemtloek hlang tih thii na long sak dongah,’ a ti.
4 Though the Lord, the God of Israel, took me out of all my father's family, to be king over Israel for ever, marking out Judah to be chief, and, of the people of Judah, my father's family; and among the sons of my father he was pleased to make me king over all Israel;
Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh kai he Israel soah kumhal hil manghai la om ham a pa imkhui pum lamloh n'coelh. Judah te khaw rhaengsang la acoelh bal. Te dongah Judah imkhui lamloh a pa imkhui tih a pa pacaboeina khui lamloh kai he tah Israel boeih soah manghai sak ham a ngaingaih.
5 And of all my sons (for the Lord has given me a great number of sons) he has made selection of Solomon to take his place on the seat of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.
BOEIPA loh kai he ca muep m'paek dae ka ca boeih khuiah khaw BOEIPA ram kah ngolkhoel dongah Israel ngol thil ham tah ka capa Solomon te ni a coelh.
6 And he said to me, Solomon your son will be the builder of my house and the open spaces round it; for I have taken him to be my son, and I will be his father.
Kamah taengah khaw, 'Na capa Solomon loh ka im neh ka vongtung a sak ni. Anih te kamah kah capa la ka coelh dongah kai khaw anih ham a napa la ka om ni.
7 I will keep his kingdom in its place for ever, if he is strong at all times to do my orders and keep my rules, as at this day.
Tahae khohnin kah bangla ka olpaek neh ka laitloeknah vai ham te a tlungmu mak atah a ram te kumhal duela ka cikngae sak ni,’ a ti.
8 So now, before the eyes of all Israel, the people of the Lord, and in the hearing of our God, keep and be true to the orders of the Lord your God; so that you may have this good land for yourselves and give it for a heritage to your children after you for ever.
Te dongah BOEIPA kah hlangping, Israel pum kah mikhmuh neh mamih kah Pathen hna ah khaw ngaithuen uh laeh. Nangmih kah Pathen, BOEIPA kah olpaek boeih te toem uh. Te daengah ni khohmuen then te na pang uh vetih nangmih hnuk ah na ca rhoek te khaw kumhal duela na phaeng uh thai eh.
9 And you, Solomon my son, get knowledge of the God of your father, and be his servant with a true heart and with a strong desire, for the Lord is the searcher of all hearts, and has knowledge of all the designs of men's thoughts; if you make search for him, he will be near you; but if you are turned away from him, he will give you up for ever.
Ka capa Solomon nang khaw na pa kah Pathen te ming. Amah te lungbuei neh a rhuemtuet la thothueng lamtah hinglu neh omtoem lah. Thinko boeih he BOEIPA loh a toem tih kopoek kah benbonah boeih khaw a yakming. Amah te na toem atah nang taengah ha phoe vetih amah te na hnoo atah a yoeyah la nang n'hlahpham ni.
10 Now then, take note; for the Lord has made selection of you to be the builder of a house for the holy place. Be strong and do it.
BOEIPA loh Im sak hamla nang n'coelh te hmu laeh. Rhokso hamla thaahuel lamtah saii.
11 Then David gave to his son Solomon the design of the doorway of the house of God and of its houses and its store-houses, and the higher rooms and the inner rooms and the place for the mercy-seat;
David loh a capa Solomon taengah ngalha neh a im khaw, a kawn-im neh a imhman khaw, a imkhui khuisaek neh a tlaeng im khaw a muei te boeih a paek.
12 And the design of all he had in his heart for the outer squares of the house of the Lord, and for the rooms all round it, and for the store-houses of the house of the Lord, and for the store-houses for the holy things;
BOEIPA im kah vongup ham neh a kaepvai kah imkhan boeih ham khaw, Pathen im kah thakvoh ham khaw, hmuencim thakvoh ham khaw a cungkuem dongkah a muei te a khuiah mueihla rhang neh a om pah coeng.
13 And for the divisions of the priests and Levites, and for all the work in connection with the worship of the house of the Lord, and all the vessels used in the house of the Lord;
Khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek kah boelnah ham khaw, BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah bitat cungkuem ham khaw, BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah hnopai cungkuem ham khaw.
14 Of gold, by weight, for the vessels of gold, for all the vessels of different uses; and silver for all the vessels of silver by weight, for vessels of different uses;
Thothuengnah sui hnopai cungkuem neh thothuengnah dongkah ham sui te khaw a khiing neh, cak hnopai cungkuem ham khaw a khiing neh, thothuengnah hnopai cungkuem neh thothuengnah ham khaw.
15 And gold by weight for the light-supports and the vessels for the lights, the weight of gold needed for every support and every vessel for lights; and for the silver light-supports, the weight of silver needed for every support and for the different vessels as every one was to be used;
Sui hmaitung neh a hmaithoi dongkah a khiing tah sui hmaitung kah a khiing bangla hmaitung neh a hmaithoi te a khueh. Cak hmaitung ham khaw hmaitung pakhat neh hmaitung pakhat kah thohtatnah bangla hmaitung neh a hmaithoi kah a khiing te a khueh.
16 And gold by weight for the tables for the holy bread for every table, and silver for the silver tables;
Rhungkung caboei dongkah caboei neh caboei ham sui khaw a khiing neh, cak caboei dongkah ham cak khaw a khueh.
17 Clear gold for the meat-hooks and the basins and the cups; for the gold basins, gold enough by weight for every basin; and silver by weight for every silver basin;
Ciksum neh baelcak khaw, sui cilh tui-um neh sui bael ham khaw, bael neh bael ham khaw a khiing neh, cak bael dongkah bael neh bael khaw a khiing neh,
18 And the best gold for the altar of perfumes; and gold for the design of the carriage, for the winged ones whose wings were outstretched covering the ark of the Lord's agreement.
Bo-ul hmueihtuk dongkah sui a ciil khaw a khiing neh, phuel uh tih BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng soah aka khuk sui cherubim leng kah muei ham khaw.
19 All this, said David, the design for all these things, has been made dear to me in writing by the hand of the Lord.
BOEIPA kut lamkah ca dongah khaw cungkuem coeng tih a muei dongkah bitat cungkuem dongah khaw kai he n'cangbam coeng.
20 And David said to his son Solomon, Be strong and of a good heart and do your work; have no fear and do not be troubled, for the Lord God, my God, is with you; he will not give you up, and his face will not be turned away from you, till all the work necessary for the house of the Lord is complete.
Te phoeiah David loh a capa Solomon te, “Thaahuel lamtah namning lamtah saii. Rhih boeh, rhihyawp boeh. Kai kah Pathen, Yahweh Pathen tah nang taengah om. BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah bitat cungkuem a khah ham hil te nang n'rhael pawt vetih nang te n'hnoo mahpawh.
21 And see, there are the divisions of the priests and Levites for all the work of the house of God; and every trained and expert workman will be ready to do for you whatever is needed; and the captains and the people will be under your orders in everything.
Pathen im kah thothuengnah cungkuem ham khaw khosoih neh Levi rhoek kah boelnah om coeng he. Hlangcong cungkuem lamkah khaw bitat cungkuem dongah, thothuengnah cungkuem dongah cueihnah neh nang taengah om. Mangpa rhoek neh pilnam boeih khaw a cungkuem ah nang ol bangla om uh saeh,” a ti nah.
