28 The rest of the people, including the priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, and Temple servants, and everyone who had separated themselves from the people of the land to keep the Law of God, as well as their wives and all their sons and daughters who were old enough to understand,
Nou menm, moun pèp Izrayèl la, prèt yo, ak moun Levi yo, gad pòtay tanp yo, mizisyen tanp yo, travayè tanp yo, ak tout lòt moun yo ki te wete kò yo nan mitan moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi a pou nou ka fè sa lalwa Bondye a mande nou an, ansanm ak madanm nou yo, pitit gason ak pitit fi nou yo ki gen laj konprann,
29 joined the leaders in swearing an oath to follow the Law of God given through Moses the servant of God, to pay attention to and carry out all the commands of the Lord our God, his rules and regulations.
nou mete tèt nou ansanm ak frè nou yo ki chèf nan mitan nou, nou fè sèman pou nenpòt bagay rive nou si nou pa kenbe pwomès n'ap fè la a. Nou pran angajman n'ap mache dapre lalwa Bondye te bay Moyiz, sèvitè l' la, pou nou. Nou pran angajman n'ap obeyi tou sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, kòmande nou pou nou swiv ansanm ak tout regleman ak tout lòd li ban nou yo.
30 “We promise not to allow our daughters to marry the people of the land, and not to allow our sons to marry their daughters.
Nou pran angajman espesyalman pou nou pa marye pitit fi nou ak lòt moun k'ap viv nan peyi a, epi pou nou pa chwazi pitit fi moun sa yo pou marye ak pitit gason nou yo.
31 When the people of the land bring goods and all kinds of food to sell on the holy Sabbath, we will not buy anything from them on the Sabbath or on other holy days. Every seventh year we will leave the land to rest, and we will cancel all debts.
Si moun sa yo pote machandiz osinon nenpòt pwovizyon vin vann nou jou repo a, nou p'ap achte anyen nan men yo jou sa a. Se menm bagay la tou si se yon jou fèt pou Seyè a. Chak sètan, n'a kite jaden nou yo poze, epi tout moun ki dwe nou, n'a kite dèt la pou yo.
32 We accept the obligation to pay one third of a shekel for the operation of the Temple of God,
Men lòt obligasyon nou bay tèt nou ankò: Chak lanne, chak moun ap bay yon demi ka ons ajan pou depans y'ap fè pou sèvis Bondye nou an nan tanp lan.
33 for the showbread, for the regular grain offerings and burnt offerings, for the Sabbath offerings, for the new moon and yearly festivals, for the holy offerings, for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, in short all that takes place in the Temple of our God.
N'a bay tou pen pou yo mete apa pou Bondye yo, ofrann grenn pou chak jou yo, bèt pou yo boule chak jou pou Bondye yo, ofrann pou jou repo yo, pou fèt lalin nouvèl yo, ak pou lòt gwo fèt yo, manje pou yo mete apa pou Bondye yo, ofrann pou wete peche moun pèp Izrayèl yo, ak tout lòt bagay yo ka bezwen pou fè sèvis nan tanp Bondye nou an.
34 We have allocated by lot among the priests, Levites, and the people, to determine who will bring wood to the Temple of our God to burn on the altar of the Lord our God at specific times during the year, as required by the Law.
Nou menm, prèt yo, moun Levi yo ak rès pèp la, men ki jan pou nou regle keksyon livrezon bwa pou tanp lan: Chak lanne y'a tire osò pou konnen kilè chak fanmi, yonn apre lòt, va pote bwa y'a bezwen pou boule sou lotèl Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan sa ekri nan lalwa Bondye a.
35 We also promise to bring the first part of the produce from our fields and from every fruit tree to the Lord's Temple every year.
Nou deside tou chak lanne, n'a pote nan tanp lan pou n' ofri bay Seyè a premye grenn nou rekòlte nan jaden nou ak premye fwi ki mi sou tout pyebwa nou yo.
36 We will bring the firstborn of our sons and of our livestock and of our herds and flocks to the Temple of our God, to the priests who minister there, as required by the Law.
Jan sa ekri nan lalwa Bondye a, n'a pote bay prèt yo k'ap sèvi nan tanp Bondye nou an premye pitit gason nou yo lè yo fèt pou yo ka mete yo apa pou Bondye. Konsa tou, n'a pote ba yo premye ti towo manman bèf nou yo va fè ak premye ti belye manman mouton nou yo va fè ak premye ti bouk manman kabrit nou yo va fè paske se pou prèt yo yo ye.
37 We will bring to the storerooms of the Temple of our God, to the priests, the first part of our coarse-ground flour, of our grain offerings, of the fruit of all our trees, and of our new wine and olive oil. We will also bring a tithe of our produce to the Levites, for the Levites are the ones who collect the tithes in all the farming towns.
Konsa tou, n'a pote bay prèt yo kote y'ap viv nan tanp lan pen n'a fè ak premye grenn n'a rekòlte chak lanne yo, ansanm ak lòt ofrann fwi pyebwa nou yo va donnen, diven ki fenk fèt ak lwil oliv fre. N'a pote ladim tout rekòt n'a fè nan jaden nou bay moun Levi yo. Se yo menm ki va mache nan tout ti bouk nou yo pou ranmase ladim kote yo fè jaden.
38 A priest descended from Aaron will accompany the Levites when they collect the tithe, and the Levites are to bring a tithe of these tithes to the rooms of the storehouse in the Temple of our God.
Yonn nan pret yo, ki soti nan branch fanmi Arawon an, va toujou ale avèk moun Levi yo lè yo pral ranmase ladim lan. Lèfini, moun Levi yo va pote mete nan depo pwovizyon tanp lan yon dizyèm nan tout ladim y'a ranmase a pou sèvis Tanp lan.
39 The people of Israel and the Levites are to bring the offerings of grain, new wine, and olive oil to the storerooms where the sanctuary objects are kept, where the ministering priests, the gatekeepers, and the singers are. We will not forget the Temple of our God.”
Se nan chanm depo tanp lan moun pèp Izrayèl yo ak moun Levi yo va pote tout grenn, tout diven ak tout lwil yo fèt pou bay la. Se la tou y'a mete tout veso ak tout lòt bagay ki pou sèvi nan tanp lan. Epitou, prèt desèvis yo, gad pòtay tanp yo ak mizisyen tanp yo va gen kote pou yo rete la tou. Se konsa nou pran angajman nou p'ap janm neglije kay Bondye nou an ankò!
