< 1 Chronicles 28 >

1 And David assembled all the chief men of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies, who waited on the king: and the captains over thousands, and over hundreds, and them who had the charge over the substance and possessions of the king, and his sons with the officers of the court, and the men of power, and all the bravest of the army at Jerusalem.
Ary novorin’ i Davida tany Jerosalema ny lehibe rehetra tamin’ ny Isiraely, dia ny lohan’ ny firenena sy ny komandin’ ny antokony Izay nanompo ny andriamanjaka, ary ny mpifehy arivo sy ny mpifehy zato sy ny mpitandrina ny harena mbanin’ ny fananana rehetra an’ ny mpanjaka sy ny zanany mbamin’ ny tandapa sy ny lehilahy mahery, dia ny lehibe rehetra.
2 And the king rising up, and standing said: Hear me, my brethren and my people: I had a thought to have built a house, in which the ark of the Lord, and the footstool of our God might rest: and I prepared all things for the building.
Ary Davida mpanjaka nitsangana ka nanao hoe: Mihainoa ahy, ry rahalahiko sy ry vahoakako! Raha izaho, dia efa mby tato am-poko ny hanao trano fitsaharana ho an’ ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah sy ho an’ ny fitoeran-tongotr’ Andriamanitsika, ary efa novononiko izay ho enti-manao azy;
3 And God said to me: Thou shalt not build a house to my name: because thou art a man of war, and hast shed blood.
nefa hoy Andriamanitra tamiko: Tsy hanao trano ho an’ ny anarako ianao, satria lehilahy mpiady sy mpandatsa-drà.
4 But the Lord God of Israel chose me of all the house of my father, to be king over Israel for ever: for of Juda he chose the princes: and of the house of Juda, my father’s house: and among the sons of my father, it pleased him to choose me king over all Israel.
Nefa kosa Jehovah, Andriamanitra ny Isiraely efa nifidy ahy tamin’ ny ankohonan’ ny raiko rehetra ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely mandrakizay; fa Joda no nofidiny ho mpanjaka, ary tamin’ ny taranak’ i Joda indray dia ny ankohonan’ ny raiko no nofidiny; ary tamin’ ny ankohonan’ ny raiko dia izaho kosa no nankasitrahany ka nataony mpanjaka amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra.
5 And among my sons (for the Lord hath given me many sons) he hath chosen Solomon my son, to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.
Ary tamin’ ny zanako rehetra (fa zanaka maro no nomen’ i Jehovah ahy) dia Solomona zanako no nofidiny hipetraka amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakan’ i Jehovah hanjaka amin’ ny Isiraely.
6 And he said to me: Solomon thy son shall build my house, and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be a father to him.
Ary hoy Izy tamiko: Solomona zanakao no hanao ny tranoko sy ny kianjako, fa efa nifidy azy ho zanako Aho, ary Izaho ho rainy.
7 And I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he continue to keep my commandments, and my judgments, as at this day.
Ary hampitoetra ny fanjakany ho mandrakizay Aho, raha maharitra mitandrina ny didiko sy ny fitsipiko mandra-kariva izy tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao.
8 Now then before all the assembly of Israel, in the hearing of our God, keep ye, and seek all the commandments of the Lord our God: that you may possess the good land, and may leave it to your children after you for ever.
Ary ankehitriny, eto anatrehan’ ny Isiraely rehetra, fiangonan’ i Jehovah, sy eto anatrehan’ Andriamanitsika, tandremo sy diniho ny didin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo rehetra, mba hahatananareo ity tany soa ity, sady havelanareo ho lovan’ ny zanakareo mandimby anareo, mandrakizay izy.
9 And thou my son Solomon, know the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart, and a willing mind: for the Lord searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the thoughts of minds. If thou seek him, thou shalt find him: but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.
Ary ianao, ry Solomona zanako, aoka ho fantatrao Andriamanitry ny rainao, ka manompoa Azy amin’ ny fo rehetra sy ny fanahy mazoto; fa Jehovah, dia mpandinika ny fo rehetra, ary ny fieritreretana rehetra dia fantany avokoa. Raha mitady Azy ianao, dia hahita Azy; fa raha mahafoy Azy kosa ianao, dia hariany mandrakizay.
10 Now therefore seeing the Lord hath chosen thee to build the house of the sanctuary, take courage, and do it.
Koa mitandrema; fa Jehovah efa nifidy anao hanao trano ho fitoerana masìna; dia mahereza ka mahefà.
11 And David gave to Solomon his son a description of the porch, and of the temple, and of the treasures, and of the upper floor, and of the inner chambers, and of the house for the mercy seat,
Ary Davida nanome an’ i Solomona zanany ny sarin’ ny lavarangana fidirana sy ny tranony sy ny trano firaketany sy ny efi-trano ambony sy ny efi-trano anatiny ary ny trano misy ny rakotra fanaovam-panavotana,
12 As also of all the courts, which he had in his thought, and of the chambers round about, for the treasures of the house of the Lord, and for the treasures of the consecrated things,
ary ny sarin’ izay rehetra efa niseho tamin’ ny fanahiny; dia ny amin’ ny kianjan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny efi-trano rehetra manodidina azy ho an’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny zavatra nohamasinina ho rakitra,
13 And of the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, for all the works of the house of the Lord, and for all the vessels of the service of the temple of the Lord.
sy ho an’ ny antokon’ ny mpisorona sy ny Levita koa, ary ho an’ ny fanompoana rehetra ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah sy ho an’ ny fanaka rehetra ho enti-manompo ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah,
14 Gold by weight for every vessel for the ministry. And silver by weight according to the diversity of the vessels and uses.
ary ny lanjan’ ny volamena hanaovana ny fanaka volamena samy hafa rehetra, ary ny lanjan’ ny volafotsy koa hanaovana ny fanaka volafotsy samy hafa rehetra,
15 He gave also gold for the golden candlesticks, and their lamps, according to the dimensions of every candlestick, and the lamps thereof. In like manner also he gave silver by weight for the silver candlesticks, and for their lamps according to the diversity of the dimensions of them.
ary ny lanjan’ ny volamena hanaovana ny fanaovan-jiro volamena sy ny lela fanaovan-jirony araka ny lanjany avy, ary ny lanjan’ ny volafotsy hanaovana ny fanaovan-jiro volafotsy sy ny lela fanaovan-jirony araka ny fombany avy,
16 He gave also gold for the tables of proposition, according to the diversity of the tables: in like manner also silver for other tables of silver.
ary ny lanjan’ ny volamena hanaovana ireo latabatra hametrahana ny mofo aseho, ary ny amin’ ny volafotsy ho amin’ ny latabatra volafotsy,
17 For fleshhooks also, and bowls, and censers of fine gold, and for little lions of gold, according to the measure he gave by weight, for every lion. In like manner also for lions of silver he set aside a different weight of silver.
ary ny amin’ ny fitrebika sy ny lovia famafazana ary ny fitoeran-divay, izay samy volamena tsara, ary ny amin’ ny kapoaka misarona, na ny volamena, na ny volafotsy, araka ny lanjany avy,
18 And for the altar of incense, he gave the purest gold: and to make the likeness of the chariot of the cherubims spreading their wings, and covering the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
ary ny lanjan’ ny volamena voadio hanaovana ny alitara fandoroana ditin-kazo manitra; ary nomeny koa ny sarin’ ny kalesy, dia ny kerobima volamena, izay manana elatra mivelatra ka manaloka ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah.
19 All these things, said he, came to me written by the hand of the Lord that I might understand all the works of the pattern.
Izany asa rehetra araka ny sary izany, hoy Davida, no nampahafantarin’ i Jehovah ahy tamin’ ny soratra avy tamin’ ny tànany, izay atỳ amiko.
20 And David said to Solomon his son: Act like a man, and take courage, and do: fear not, and be not dismayed: for the Lord my God will be with thee, and will not leave thee, nor forsake thee, till thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord.
Ary hoy koa Davida tamin’ i Solomona zanany: Mahereza sy matanjaha ka mahefà; aza matahotra na mivadi-po; fa Jehovah Andriamanitra, dia Andriamanitro, no momba anao; tsy handao na hahafoy anao Izy ambara-pahavitanao ny asa rehetra hanaovana ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
21 Behold the courses of the priests and the Levites, for every ministry of the house of the Lord, stand by thee, and are ready, and both the princes, and the people know how to execute all thy commandments.
Ary indreo ny antokon’ ny mpisorona sy ny Levita hanao ny fanompoana rehetra ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra; ary ao aminao hanampy amin’ ny asa samy hafa rehetra ny olon-kendry izay manolo-tena mba hahavita ny fanompoana rehetra sy ny mpifehy ary ny vahoaka rehetra hankatò ny didinao.
