1 Chronicles 22
1 And David said, This is the house of Jehovah Elohim, and this is the altar of burnt-offering for Israel.
Se konsa David te di: -Se la Tanp Bondye Seyè a ye, ansanm ak lotèl pou boule bèt yo ofri bay Bondye pou pèp Izrayèl la.
2 And David commanded to collect the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.
David bay lòd pou tout moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi Izrayèl la reyini. Li moute chantye kote pou taye wòch pou bati Tanp Bondye a.
3 And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joists, and brass in abundance without weight;
Li fè pare fè an kantite pou fè klou ak kranpon pou batan pòt yo. Pou kwiv la menm, moun pa ka kalkile kantite li te fè pare.
4 and cedar-trees innumerable; for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought cedar-wood in abundance to David.
Pou bwa sèd, moun peyi Sidon ak moun lavil Tir te fè David jwenn sa an kantite.
5 For David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built for Jehovah must be exceeding great in fame and in beauty in all lands: I will therefore make preparation for it. And David prepared abundantly before his death.
David t'ap di nan kè l': Salomon, pitit gason m' lan, se yon timoun ki poko gen esperyans. Tanp li gen pou l' bati pou Seyè a, se li ki pou pi gwo, pi bèl pase dènye tanp, pou toupatou sou latè y'ap pale sou li. Se pou m' pare tout bagay kite pou li. Se konsa, anvan li mouri, David pare materyo an kantite kite la pou sa.
6 And he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build a house for Jehovah the God of Israel.
Lèfini, li voye chache Salomon, pitit gason l' lan, li ba li lòd pou li bati Tanp Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
7 And David said to Solomon, As for me, my son, I was minded to build a house unto the name of Jehovah my God.
Li di l' konsa: -Pitit mwen, mwen te fè lide bati yon tanp pou Seyè a, Bondye mwen an.
8 But the word of Jehovah came to me saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build a house unto my name, for thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.
Men Seyè a fè m' konnen mwen touye twòp moun, mwen fè anpil lagè. Se poutèt sa se pa mwen ki pral bati tanp lan pou li, paske mwen fè twòp san koule.
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 in his days I will give peace and quietness unto Israel.
Men li di m' konsa: Ou pral gen yon pitit gason ki p'ap nan touye moun li menm. M'ap fè tout lènmi l' yo toupatou viv byen ak li tou. Se poutèt sa y'a rele l' Salomon. Sou rèy li, peyi Izrayèl la ap viv ak ke poze, san danje ni malè.
10 He shall build a house unto 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 for ever.
Se li menm ki va bati yon tanp pou mwen. L'ap yon pitit pou mwen, mwen menm m'ap yon papa pou li. M'ap fè l' toujou gen yon moun nan fanmi l' wa pou gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
11 Now, my son, Jehovah be with thee, that thou mayest prosper, and build the house of Jehovah thy God, as he has said of thee.
Koulye a, pitit mwen, se pou Seyè a, Bondye w'ap sèvi a, toujou kanpe la avè ou pou ou ka rive bati Tanp lan pou li, jan li te pwomèt ou sa.
12 Only, Jehovah give thee wisdom and understanding, and place thee over Israel, and to keep the law of Jehovah thy God.
Mwen mande Seyè a pou l' ba ou bon konprann ak anpil lespri, pou lè l'a mete ou chèf nan peyi Izrayèl la, ou ka toujou fè tou sa ki nan Lalwa Seyè a, Bondye ou la.
13 Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takest heed to perform the statutes and ordinances which Jehovah commanded Moses for Israel: be strong and courageous; fear not, neither be dismayed.
Konsa, tout bagay va mache byen pou ou si ou veye kò ou pou ou mennen bak ou dapre lòd ak regleman Seyè a te bay Moyiz pou pèp Izrayèl la. Mete gason sou ou, kenbe fèm! Pa kite anyen fè ou pè.
14 And behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the house of Jehovah a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight, for it is in abundance; and timber and stone have I prepared; and thou shalt add to it.
Gade! Mwen bay kò m' anpil traka pou m' pare tout bagay pou Tanp Seyè a: twamil twasan (3.300) tòn lò, tranntwamil (33.000) tòn ajan, ak yon gwo kantite kwiv ak fè moun pa ka kalkile. M' pare bwa ak wòch tou. Men, se pou ou fè pare toujou.
15 And there are workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of skilful men for every kind of work.
Lèfini, w'ap jwenn anpil travayè, kantonye, moun pou taye wòch, chapant, ak anpil moun ki bòs nan tout kalite travay.
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.
Pou lò, ajan, kwiv ak fè, ou gen sa an kantite. Konsa, mete men nan travay la! Mwen mande pou Seyè a toujou kanpe la avè ou.
17 And David commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, [saying, ]
Apre sa, David mande tout chèf pèp Izrayèl yo pou yo ede Salomon, pitit gason l' lan.
18 Is not Jehovah your God with you? and has he [not] given you rest on every side? for he has given the inhabitants of the land into my hand; and the land is subdued before Jehovah, and before his people.
Li di yo konsa: -Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te toujou la avèk nou. Li fè nou viv nan lapè ak tout moun toupatou. Li lage nan men mwen tout lòt moun ki rete nan peyi a, kifè tout peyi a soumèt nèt devan Seyè a ak devan pèp li a.
19 Now set your heart and your soul to seek Jehovah your God; and arise and build the sanctuary of Jehovah Elohim, to bring the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and the vessels of the sanctuary of God into the house that is to be built unto the name of Jehovah.
Koulye a, se pou nou pran desizyon chache fè volonte Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ak tout kè nou, ak tout nanm nou. Pare kò nou pou nou bati tanp Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou nou ka mete Bwat Kontra Seyè a ak tout lòt bagay yo mete apa pou fè sèvis Seyè a ladan l'.
