1 Chronicles 15
1 He made also houses for himself in the city of David: and built a place for the ark of God, and pitched a tabernacle for it.
David fè yo bati anpil kay pou li nan lavil David la. Li pare yon anplasman pou Bwat Kontra Bondye a, li moute yon gwo tant twal pou li.
2 Then David said: No one ought to carry the ark of God, but the Levites, whom the Lord hath chosen to carry it, and to minister unto himself for ever.
Epi li di: -Se moun Levi yo ase ki pou pote Bwat Kontra Bondye a, paske se yo menm Seyè a te chwazi pou pote Bwat la, se yo li te chwazi pou sèvi l' pou tout tan.
3 And he gathered all Israel together into Jerusalem, that the ark of God might be brought into its place, which he had prepared for it.
Lèfini, li reyini tout pèp Izrayèl la lavil Jerizalèm pou yo pote Bwat Kontra a kote li te pare pou li a.
4 And the sons of Aaron also, and the Levites.
Apre sa, li voye chache tout moun nan ras fanmi Arawon yo ansanm ak moun Levi yo.
5 Of the children of Caath, Uriel was the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty.
Nan branch fanmi Keyat la, te gen Ouryèl, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou sanven (120).
6 Of the sons of Merari, Asaia the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty.
Nan branch fanmi Merari a, te gen Asaja, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou desanven (220).
7 Of the sons of Gersom, Joel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and thirty.
Nan branch fanmi Gèchon an, te gen Joèl, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou santrant (130).
8 Of the sons of Elisaphan, Semeias the chief: and his brethren two hundred.
Nan branch fanmi Elizafan an, te gen Semaja, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou desan (200).
9 Of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief: and his brethren eighty.
Nan branch fanmi Ebwon an, te gen Eliyèl, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou katreven.
10 Of the sons of Oziel, Aminadab the chief: and his brethren a hundred and twelve.
Nan branch fanmi Ouzyèl la te gen Aminadad, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou sandouz (112).
11 And David called Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites, Uriel, Asaia, Joel, Semeia, Eliel, and Aminadab:
David rele Zadòk ak Abyata, prèt yo, ansanm ak sis moun Levi: Ouryèl, Asaja, Joèl, Chemaja, Eliyèl ak Aminadad.
12 And he said to them: You that are the heads of the Levitical families, be sanctified with your brethren, and brine the ark of the Lord the God of Israel to the place, which is prepared for it:
Li di yo: -Se nou menm ki chèf branch fanmi Levi yo. Mete nou nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Bondye, nou menm ansanm ak tout moun nan fanmi nou, pou nou ka al pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, kote mwen fè pare pou li a.
13 Lest as the Lord at first struck us, because you were not present, the same should now also come to pass, by our doing some thing against the law.
Premye fwa a, nou pa t' la. Se poutèt sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te touye kèk nan nou paske nou pa t' fè l' jan nou te dwe fè l' la.
14 So the priests and the Levites were sanctified, to carry the ark of the Lord the God of Israel.
Se konsa, prèt yo ak moun Levi yo al mete yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye, pou yo te ka al pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
15 And the sons of Levi took the ark of God as Moses had commanded, according to the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders, with the staves.
Yo mete Bwat la sou gwo travès long yo, yo leve l' mete l' sou zepòl yo, yo pote l' ale jan Moyiz te ba yo lòd fè l' la dapre pawòl Seyè a.
16 And David spoke to the chiefs of the Levites, to appoint some of their brethren to be singers with musical instruments, to wit, on psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, that the joyful noise might resound on high.
David bay chèf moun Levi yo lòd pou yo chwazi divès moun nan fanmi yo ki konn chante, pou yo vini ak enstriman mizik yo, gita, bandjo ak senbal, pou jwe mizik cho paske kè tout moun te kontan.
17 And they appointed Levites, Hemam the son of Joel, and of his brethren Asaph the son of Barachias: and of the sons of Merari, their brethren: Ethan the son of Casaia.
Moun Levi yo chwazi Eyman, pitit gason Joèl la, ansanm ak Asaf, pitit gason Berekya, yon fanmi Eyman, ak Etan, pitit gason Kouchaja nan branch fanmi Merari a, fanmi ak de lòt premye yo.
18 And with them their brethren: in the second rank, Zacharias, and Ben, and Jaziel, and Semiramoth, and Jahiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Banaias, and Maasias, and Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias, and Obededom, and Jehiel, the porters.
Apre sa, yo chwazi lòt moun Levi nan menm fanmi ak premye yo, pou ede yo nan travay yo. Se te Zakari, Aziyèl, Semiramòt, Jekiyèl, Ouni, Eliyab, Benaja, Maseja, Matitya, Elifeleou, Mikneja, ak de gad pòtay tanp lan, Obèd-Edon ak Jeyèl.
19 Now the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, sounded with cymbals of brass.
Eyman, Asaf ak Etan, sanba yo, te reskonsab pou bat senbal kwiv yo pou fè mizik.
20 And Zacharias, and Oziel, and Semiramoth, and Jehiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Maasias, and Banaias, sung mysteries upon psalteries.
Zakari, Aziyèl, Semiramòt, Jekiyèl, Ouni, Eliyab, Maseja ak Benaja t'ap jwe premye gita yo.
21 And Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias and Obededom, and Jehiel and Ozaziu, sung a song of victory for the octave upon harps.
Matitya, Elifeleou, Mikneja, Obèd-Edon, Jeyèl ak Azazya t'ap jwe gita bas. Se yo ki pou te bay kadans chante yo.
22 And Chonenias chief of the Levites, presided over the prophecy, to give out the tunes: for he was very skillful.
Se Kenanya, chèf moun Levi ki te reskonsab pote Bwat la, ki t'ap dirije yo, paske li te fò nan fè travay konsa.
23 And Barachias, and Elcana, were doorkeepers of the ark.
Se Berekya ak Elkana ki t'ap pote Bwat Kontra a.
24 And Sebenias, and Josaphat, and Nathanael, and Amasai, and Zacharias, and Banaias, and Eliezer the priests, sounded with trumpets, before the ark of God: and Obededom and Jehias were porters of the ark.
Men non prèt yo te chwazi pou kònen twonpèt devan Bwat Kontra a. Se te Chebanyas, Jozafa, Netaneyèl, Amasayi, Zakari, Benaja ak Elyezè. Obèd-Edon ak Jebija te la pou pote Bwat Kontra a tou.
25 So David and all the ancients of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the house of Obededom with joy.
Se konsa David ak tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo ansanm ak tout chèf rejiman mil sòlda yo ale lakay Obèd-Edon, yo pran Bwat Kontra a pou yo pote l' lavil Jerizalèm ak kè kontan.
26 And when God had helped the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, they offered in sacrifice seven oxen, and seven rams.
Yo touye sèt towo ak sèt belye pou Bondye te ka ede moun Levi ki t'ap pote Bwat Kontra a.
27 And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that carried the ark, and the singing men, and Chonenias the ruler of the prophecy among the singers: and David also had on him an ephod of linen.
David te gen yon rad fèt ak twal fin blan sou li, menm jan ak tout moun Levi yo ki t'ap mache devan Bwat Kontra a, sanba yo ak Kenaja ki t'ap dirije travay transpò a. David te gen yon moso twal fin blan tou mare nan ren li.
28 And all Israel brought the ark of the covenant of the Lord with joyful shouting, and sounding with the sound of the comet, and with trumpets, and cymbals, and psalteries, and harps.
Se konsa, tout pèp Izrayèl la ale ansanm ak Bwat Kontra Seyè a, yo pote l' lavil Jerizalèm. Yo t'ap rele, yo t'ap fè fèt. Yo t'ap jwe klewon, twonpèt, senbal, gita ak bandjo sou tout wout la.
29 And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come to the city of David, Michol the daughter of Saul looking out at a window, saw king David dancing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
Antan yo t'ap antre ak Bwat Kontra a lavil Jerizalèm, Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, te kanpe bò yon fennèt ap gade. Li wè David ki t'ap danse fè laviwonn devan Bwat la. Li vin pa gen yon san pou li ankò.
