Chronicles I 16
1 So they brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tabernacle which David pitched for it; and they offered whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings before God.
Yo pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, yo mete l' nan plas li nan tant David te moute pou li a. Apre sa, yo ofri bèt pou boule nèt pou Bondye, ak ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi.
2 And David finished offering up whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings, and blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
Lè David fin fè ofrann sa yo, li beni pèp la nan non Seyè a.
3 And he divided to every man of Israel (both men and women), to [every] man one baker's loaf, and a cake.
Li separe manje bay tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, fanm kou gason. Li bay yo chak yon pen, yon moso vyann woti ak yon pen rezen.
4 And he appointed before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, Levites to minister [and] lift up the voice, and to give thanks and praise the Lord God of Israel:
David chwazi kèk moun Levi pou reskonsab sèvis y'ap fè devan Bwat Kontra a pou Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, pou adore l', pou di l' mèsi, pou fè lwanj li.
5 Asaph [was] the chief, and next to him Zacharias, Jeiel, Semiramoth, and Jeiel, Mattathias, Eliab, and Banaeas, and Abdedom: and Jeiel sounding with musical instruments, lutes [and] harps, and Asaph with cymbals:
Li mete Asaf chèf ak Zakari pou vin apre li. Sou zòd yo te gen Aziyèl, Chemiramòt, Jekiyèl, Matitya, Eliyab, Benaja, Obèd-Edon, Jeyèl pou jwe enstriman mizik yo, gita ak bandjo. Asaf menm t'ap bat senbal ki fè gwo bri yo.
6 and Banaeas and Oziel the priests [sounding] continually with trumpets before the ark of the covenant of God in that day.
Se Benaja ak Jaziyèl, prèt yo, ki te pou kònen twonpèt devan Bwat Kontra Bondye a tout tan.
7 Then David first gave orders to praise the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
Se lè sa a, pou premye fwa, David te bay Asaf ak lòt moun Levi yo reskonsablite pou yo fè lwanj Seyè a.
8 Song. Give thanks to the Lord, call upon him by his name, make known his designs amongst the people.
Lwanj pou Seyè a! Fè konnen jan li gen pouvwa! Fè nasyon yo konnen sa li fè!
9 Sing [songs] to him, and sing hymns to him, relate to all [people] his wonderful deeds, which the Lord has wrought.
Chante pou li! Fè lwanj li! Rakonte tout bèl bagay li te fè yo.
10 Praise his holy name, the heart that seeks his pleasure shall rejoice.
Fè kè nou kontan, paske nou se moun pa l'. Wi, se pou tout moun k'ap sèvi Seyè a fè fèt.
11 Seek the Lord and be strong, seek his face continually.
Ale jwenn Seyè a pou l' ka ede nou. Toujou chache rete devan li.
12 Remember his wonderful works which he has wrought, his wonders, and the judgements of his mouth;
Chonje mirak ak bèl bagay li te fè yo. Chonje jijman ki te soti nan bouch li,
13 [you] seed of Israel his servants, [you] seed of Jacob his chosen ones.
Nou menm, pitit pitit Izrayèl, sèvitè Bondye a, Nou menm, pitit pitit Jakòb yo, nou menm Bondye chwazi yo.
14 He [is] the Lord our God; his judgements [are] in all the earth.
Seyè a, se Bondye nou li ye. Lè li pase yon lòd, se pou tout latè.
15 Let us remember his covenant for ever, his word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
Toujou chonje kontra li a. L'ap kenbe pwomès li pou tout tan tout tan.
16 which he covenanted with Abraham, and his oath [sworn] to Isaac.
Se kontra li te fè ak Abraram lan, sèman li te fè bay Izarak la.
17 He confirmed it to Jacob for an ordinance, to Israel [as] an everlasting covenant,
Sa li te pwomèt Abraram lan, li fè l' tounen yon lwa pou pitit Jakòb yo, yon kontra ak pèp Izrayèl la pou tout tan.
18 saying, To you will I give the land of Chanaan, the line of your inheritance:
Li te di: M'ap ba ou peyi Kanaran an pou pòsyon pa ou nan byen m' yo.
19 when they were few in number, when they were but little, and lived as strangers in it;
Lè sa a, pèp Bondye a pa t' anpil. Yo te sèlman yon ti ponyen moun. Yo te tankou etranje toujou nan peyi a.
20 and went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.
Yo t'ap mache ale vini nan tout nasyon yo. Yo t'ap soti nan yon peyi ale nan yon lòt.
21 He suffered not a man to oppress them, and he reproved kings for their sakes,
Men, li pa t' kite pesonn maltrete yo. Li te menm rive pini anpil wa poutèt yo.
22 saying, Touch not my anointed ones, and deal not wrongfully with my prophets.
Li te di: Piga nou manyen moun mwen chwazi yo. Piga nou fè pwofèt mwen yo anyen.
23 Sing you to the Lord, all the earth; proclaim his salvation from day to day.
Nou tout ki rete sou latè, chante pou Seyè a! Chak jou, fè konnen jan li delivre nou.
24 Declare amongst the nations his glory, his wondrous deeds amongst all peoples.
Fè nasyon yo konnen pouvwa li. Fè tout pèp yo konnen bèl bagay li fè yo.
25 For the Lord [is] great, and greatly to be praised: he [is] to be feared above all gods.
Seyè a gen gwo pouvwa. Li merite pou yo fè lwanj li vre. Se pou tout moun pè l' pi plis pase lòt bondye yo.
26 For all the gods of the nations [are] idols; but our God made the heavens.
Bondye lòt nasyon yo pa anyen, se pòtre yo ye. Men, se Seyè a ki fè syèl la.
27 Glory and praise [are] in his presence; strength and rejoicing [are] in his place.
Devan li, se respè, se chapo ba. Gen pouvwa, gen kè kontan kote l' ye lakay li a.
28 Give to the Lord, you families of the nations, give to the Lord glory and strength.
Nou tout pèp ki sou latè, fè lwanj Seyè a! Fè lwanj Seyè a pou pouvwa ak fòs li genyen!
29 Give to the Lord the glory [belonging] to his name: take gifts and offer [them] before him; and worship the Lord in his holy courts.
Fè lwanj Seyè a, paske li merite sa! Pote ofrann ba li anndan lakay li! Adore Bondye nan bèl kay ki apa pou li a!
30 Let the whole earth fear before him; let the earth be established, and not be moved.
Nou tout ki sou latè, tranble devan li. Latè kanpe fèm, anyen pa ka brannen l'.
31 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; and let them say amongst the nations, The Lord reigns.
Se pou syèl la kontan, se pou latè a fè fèt. Mache di nan tout peyi yo: Se Seyè a ki sèl wa.
32 The sea with its fullness shall resound and the tree of the field, and all things in it.
Se pou lanmè a ansanm ak tou sa ki ladan l' pran fè bri sitèlman yo kontan. Se pou jaden yo ak tou sa ki ladan yo fè fèt.
33 Then shall the trees of the wood rejoice before the Lord, for he is come to judge the earth.
Lè Seyè a parèt se pou tout pyebwa nan gwo rak yo rele sitèlman yo kontan. Paske l'ap vini pou l' jije tout moun ki sou latè.
34 Give thanks to the Lord, for [it is] good, for his mercy [is] for ever.
Lwanj pou Seyè a paske li bon. Li p'ap janm sispann renmen nou.
35 And say you, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us, and rescue us from amongst the heathen, that we may praise your holy name, and glory in your praises.
Se pou nou di: Delivre nou non, Bondye delivrans nou! Fè nou soti nan tout peyi kote nou gaye yo. Sanble nou, pou nou ka di ou mèsi pou tout bagay ou menm sèl ka fè, pou nou ka kontan lè n'ap fè lwanj ou.
36 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel from everlasting and to everlasting: And all the people shall say, Amen. So they praised the Lord.
Ann fè lwanj Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la! Ann fè lwanj li depi tout tan ak pou tout tan. Epi tout pèp la pran reponn: -Wi, se vre! Lwanj pou Seyè a!
37 And they left there Asaph and his brethren before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to minister before the ark continually, according to the service of each day: from day to day.
Lèfini, David kite Asaf ak moun Levi menm fanmi avè l' yo devan Bwat Kontra Seyè a pou yo toujou reskonsab tout sèvis ki pou fèt kote yo te mete Bwat Kontra a. Yo te gen pou fè sèvis yo la chak jou san rete.
38 And Abdedom and his brethren [were] sixty and eight; and Abdedom the son of Idithun, and Osa, [were] to be doorkeepers.
Obèd-Edon ak swasantwit lòt moun nan fanmi li t'ap ede yo nan travay yo. Osa ak Obèd-Edon, pitit gason Jeditoun lan, te reskonsab pòtay yo.
39 And [they appointed] Sadoc the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place in Gabaon,
Men David kite Zadòk, prèt la, ak moun Levi menm fanmi avè l' yo ki te prèt tou devan Tant Seyè a, nan kote yo te mete apa pou Seyè a lavil Gabawon.
40 to offer up whole burnt offerings continually morning and evening, and according to all things written in the law of the Lord, which he commanded the children of Israel by Moses the servant of God.
Chak maten, chak aswè, se yo ki pou boule bèt yo ofri bay Seyè a nèt sou lotèl ki fèt pou sa a, dapre sa ki ekri nan lalwa Seyè a te bay pèp Izrayèl la.
41 And with him [were] Aeman and Idithun, and the rest chosen out by name to praise the Lord, for his mercy [endures] for ever.
Te gen avèk yo tou Eyman, Jedoutoun ansanm ak lòt moun yo te chwazi tout espre pou chante: Lwanj pou Seyè a paske li p'ap janm sispann renmen nou.
42 And with them [there were] trumpets and cymbals to sound aloud, and musical instruments for the songs of God: and the sons of Idithun [were] at the gate.
Eyman ak Jedoutoun te gen twonpèt, senbal ki fè gwo bri yo ak lòt enstriman mizik pou yo jwe antan yo t'ap chante fè lwanj pou Bondye. Manm fanmi Jedoutoun yo te reskonsab veye pòtay yo.
43 And all the people went every one to his home: and David returned to bless his house.
Apre sa, tout pèp la tounen lakay yo. David tounen lakay li tou pou l' beni fanmi pa l' tou.
