1 Chronicles 22
1 And David said, This is the house of Jehovah Elohim, 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 collect the strangers 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 joists, 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 innumerable; for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought cedar-wood 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 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 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 And 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, As for me, my son, I was minded to build a house unto 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 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 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 in his days I will give peace and quietness unto Israel.
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 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.
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, that thou mayest prosper, and build the house of Jehovah thy God, as he has said of 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 wisdom and understanding, and place thee over Israel, and to 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 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, 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 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.
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 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.
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 And David commanded all the princes 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 given 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 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.
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.”
