Exodus 31
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
2 Behold, I have called by name Beseleel the son of Uri the son of Hur of the tribe of Juda,
“Gade, Mwen te rele Betsaléel pa non li, fis Uri a, nan tribi Juda.
3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, with wisdom and understanding, and knowledge in all manner of work.
Mwen te ranpli li avèk Lespri Bondye nan sajès, nan konprann, nan konesans, ak nan tout kapasite mendèv yo,
4 To devise whatsoever may be artificially made of gold, and silver, and brass,
pou fè desen pou travay avèk lò, avèk ajan, e avèk bwonz,
5 Of marble, and precious stones, and variety of wood.
epi nan koupe pyè bijou pou monti, ak nan fè desen sou bwa, pou li kapab fè tout kalite mendèv.
6 And I have given him for his companion Ooliab the son of Achisamech of the tribe of Dan. And I have put wisdom in the heart of every skillful man, that they may make all things which I have commanded thee,
“Epi gade byen, Mwen menm te nonmen ansanm avèk li Oholiab, fis Ahisamach la, nan tribi Dan lan; epi osi nan kè tout moun ki ranpli avèk kapasite, Mwen te mete kapasite sa a, pou yo ta kapab fè tout sa ke M te kòmande ou yo:
7 The tabernacle of the covenant, and the ark of the testimony, and the propitiatory that is over it, and all the vessels of the tabernacle,
“Pou tant reyinyon an, lach temwayaj la, chèz pwopyatwa a sou li, ak tout mèb tant lan,
8 And the table and the vessels thereof, the most pure candlestick with the vessels thereof, and the altars of incense,
tab la osi avèk tout bagay itil li yo, chandelye an lò pi avèk tout bagay itil li yo, ak lotèl lansan an,
9 And of holocaust, and all their vessels, the laver with its foot,
lotèl ofrann ki brile yo, osi avèk tout bagay itil li yo, e basen lave a avèk baz li,
10 The holy vestments in the ministry for Aaron the priest, and for his sons, that they may execute their office about the sacred things:
epi vètman tise yo tou, vètman sen pou Aaron yo, prèt la, ak vètman pou fis li yo, pou ranpli kapasite prèt la;
11 The oil of unction, and the incense of spices in the sanctuary, all things which I have commanded thee, shall they make.
lwil onksyon an osi, ak lansan santi bon pou lye sen an. Yo va fèt selon tout sa ke M te kòmande ou yo.”
12 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
13 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: See that thou keep my sabbath: because it is a sign between me and you in your generations: that you may know that I am the Lord, who sanctify you.
“Men pou ou menm, pale a fis Israël yo. Di yo: ‘Nou va vrèman obsève Saba Mwen yo. Paske sa se yon sign antre Mwen ak nou pandan tout jenerasyon pa nou yo, pou nou kapab konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ ki fè nou sen an.
14 Keep you my sabbath: for it is holy unto you: he that shall profane it, shall be put to death: he that shall do my work in it, his soul shall perish out of the midst of his people.
“‘Pou sa, nou gen pou obsève Saba a, paske li sen pou nou. Tout sila ki vyole li yo va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Paske nenpòt moun ki fè okenn travay nan li, moun sa a va koupe retire de pèp li yo.
15 Six days shall you do work: in the seventh day is the sabbath, the rest holy to the Lord. Every one that shall do any work on this day, shall die.
“‘Pandan sis jou nou kapab travay, men nan setyèm jou a, gen yon Saba repo konplè, ki sen a SENYÈ a. Nenpòt moun ki fè okenn travay nan jou sa a va vrèman vin mete a lanmò.
16 Let the children of Israel keep the sabbath, and celebrate it in their generations. It is an everlasting covenant
Konsa, fis Israël yo va obsève Saba a, pou selebre Saba a pandan tout jenerasyon pa yo kòm yon akò ki p ap janm sispann.
17 Between me and the children of Israel, and a perpetual sign. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and in the seventh he ceased from work.
Li se yon sign antre Mwen avèk fis Israël yo pou tout tan. Paske nan sis jou SENYÈ a te fè syèl la avèk tè a, men nan setyèm jou a Li te pran repo, e Li te vin rafrechi Li.’”
18 And the Lord, when he had ended these words in mount Sinai, gave to Moses two stone tables of testimony, written with the finger of God.
“Lè Li te fin pale avèk li sou Mòn Sinai a, Li te bay Moïse de tablèt temwayaj la. Tablèt yo te fèt an wòch, e yo te ekri pa dwèt SENYÈ a.”
