< 1 Chronicles 28 >
1 Nowe Dauid assembled all the princes of Israel: the princes of the tribes, and the captaines of the bandes that serued the King, and the captaines of thousands and the captaines of hundreths, and the rulers of all the substance and possession of the King, and of his sonnes, with the eunuches, and the mightie, and all the men of power, vnto Ierusalem.
David yɔ Israel ƒe dɔdzikpɔlawo katã ƒo fu ɖe Yerusalem; Woawoe nye to vovovoawo ƒe tatɔwo, aʋafia siwo nɔ hatsotsoawo nu le fia la ƒe dɔ me, ame akpewo kple ame alafawo ƒe tatɔwo, dɔnunɔla siwo kpɔa fia la ƒe viŋutsuwo kple eƒe nunɔamesiwo kple lãhawo dzi, kpe ɖe fiasã la me dɔwɔlawo kple kalẽtɔwo kple aʋakalẽtɔwo ŋuti.
2 And King Dauid stoode vp vpon his feete; and saide, Heare ye me, my brethren and my people: I purposed to haue buylt an house of rest for the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, and for a footestoole of our God, and haue made ready for the building,
Fia David tsi tsitre ɖe ameawo ŋkume eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miɖo tom, nɔvinye ŋutsuwo kple nye dukɔmetɔwo, meɖoe ɖe nye dzi me be matu xɔ si anye dzudzɔƒe na Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la eye wòanye afɔɖodzinu na míaƒe Mawu la. Ale mewɔ ɖoɖo ɖe etutu ŋuti.
3 But God sayde vnto me, Thou shalt not buylde an house for my Name, because thou hast bene a man of warre, and hast shed blood.
Ke Mawu gblɔ nam be, ‘Menye wòe atu xɔ na nye ŋkɔ o elabena aʋawɔlae nènye eye nèkɔ ʋu ɖi.’
4 Yet as the Lord God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father, to be King ouer Israel for euer (for in Iudah woulde he chuse a prince, and of the house of Iudah is the house of my father, and among the sonnes of my father he delited in me to make me King ouer all Israel)
“Ke Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la tiam le fofonye ƒe ƒome blibo la me be, manye fia ɖe Israel dzi tegbee. Etia Yuda ƒe viwo eye wòtia fofonye ƒe ƒome tso wo dome. Nye nu nyo Yehowa ŋu eye wòna mezu fia ɖe Israel dukɔ blibo la nu.
5 So of all my sonnes (for the Lord hath giuen me many sonnes) he hath euen chosen Salomon my sonne to sit vpon the throne of the kingdome of the Lord ouer Israel.
Yehowa na vi geɖewom eye wòtia Solomo tso vinyewo dome be wòanɔ tenyeƒe, anɔ Israel fiaɖuƒe la ƒe fiazikpui dzi.
6 And he sayd vnto me, Salomon thy sonne, he shall build mine house and my courtes: for I haue chosen him to be my sonne, and I will be his father.
Egblɔ nam be, ‘Viwò, Solomo atu gbedoxɔ la elabena metiae abe vinye ene eye manye fofoa.
7 I will stablish therefore his kingdome for euer, if he endeuour himselfe to do my commandements, and my iudgements, as this day.
Ne egalé nye sewo kple ɖoɖowo me ɖe asi abe ale si wòlé wo me ɖe asi va se ɖe fifia ene la, mana eƒe fiaɖuƒe nanɔ anyi tegbetegbe.’
8 Now therefore in the sight of all Israel the Congregation of the Lord, and in the audience of our God, keepe and seeke for all the commandements of the Lord your God, that ye may possesse this good lande, and leaue it for an inheritance for your children after you for euer.
“Eya ta le Israel, Yehowa ƒe asaɖa blibo la ŋkume kple míaƒe Mawu la ƒe tome la, mele nu xlɔ̃m mi be miawɔ ɖe ɖoɖo kple se siwo katã Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la de na mi la dzi be anyigba nyui sia nanye mia tɔ eye wòanye domenyinu na miaƒe viwo tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me.
9 And thou, Salomon my sonne, know thou the God of thy father, and serue him with a perfit heart, and with a willing minde: For the Lord searcheth all hearts, and vnderstandeth all the imaginations of thoughts: if thou seeke him, he will be found of thee, but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for euer.
“Eye wò, vinye Solomo, dze si fofowòwo ƒe Mawu la eye nàsubɔe kple dzi faa kple wò susu blibo elabena Yehowa kpɔa dzi ɖe sia ɖe me eye wònyaa ame sia ame ƒe susu. Ne èdi Yehowa la, àkpɔe, ke ne ègbugbɔ le eyome la, atsɔ wò aƒu gbe tegbetegbe.
10 Take heede now, for the Lord hath chosen thee to buylde the house of the Sanctuarie: be strong therefore, and doe it.
Eya ta, kpɔ nyuie elabena wòe Yehowa tia be nàtu yeƒe gbedoxɔ si anye kɔkɔeƒe. Lé dzi ɖe ƒo eye nàwɔ nu si wòɖo na wò.”
11 Then Dauid gaue to Salomon his sonne the paterne of the porch and of the houses thereof, and of the closets thereof, and of the galleries thereof, and of the chambers thereof that are within, and of the house of the mercieseate,
Azɔ la, David tsɔ xɔ la kple eƒe xɔxɔnuwo, nudzraɖoƒewo, xɔtamexɔwo, xɔ emetɔwo, kɔkɔeƒe la kple amenuveveteƒe la ƒe tata na ƒe via Solomo.
12 And the paterne of all that he had in his minde for the courtes of the house of the Lord, and for all the chambers round about, for the treasures of the house of God, and for the treasures of the dedicate things,
Etsɔ nu siwo katã gbɔgbɔ la de eƒe susu me be wòawɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnuwo, xɔ siwo katã ƒo xlãe na Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe nudzraɖoƒewo kple fia wɔnuteƒewo ƒe nudzraɖoƒe ƒe tatawo hã nɛ.
13 And for the courses of the Priestes, and of the Leuites, and for all the woorke for the seruice of the house of the Lord, and for all the vessels of the ministerie of the house of the Lord.

14 He gaue of golde by weight, for the vessels of gold, for all the vessels of all maner of seruice, and all the vessels of siluer by weight, for all maner vessels of all maner of seruice.
Eda sika hena sikaŋudɔwɔnu vovovo siwo ŋu dɔ woawɔ le subɔsubɔ vovovoawo me eye wòda klosalo hã hena klosaloŋudɔwɔnu vovovo siwo ŋu dɔ woawɔ le subɔsubɔ vovovoawo me.
15 The weight also of golde for the candlestickes, and gold for their lampes, with the weight for euery candlesticke, and for the lampes thereof, and for the candlestickes of siluer by the weight of the candlesticke, and the lampes thereof, according to the vse of euery candlesticke,

16 And the weight of the gold for the tables of shewbread, for euery table, and siluer for the tables of siluer,
Eda sika hena kplɔ̃wo wɔwɔ na Ŋkumeɖobolo ɖe sia ɖe eye wògada klosalo na klosalokplɔ̃wo hã.
17 And pure golde for the fleshhookes, and the bowles, and plates, and for basens, golde in weight for euery basen, and for siluer basens, by weight for euery basen,
Eda sika nyuitɔ na gaflowo, ʋuhlẽgbawo kple kpluwo wɔwɔ. Eda sika na sikagbawo wɔwɔ. Nenema kee wòda klosalo na klosalogbawo wɔwɔ.
18 And for the altar of incense, pure golde by weight, and golde for the paterne of the charet of the Cherubs that spread themselues, and couered the Arke of the couenant of the Lord:
Hekpe ɖe esiawo ŋuti la, eda sika si ŋu wokɔ wòdza la na dzudzɔʋeʋĩdovɔsamlekpui la. Fia la tsɔ ɖoɖo siwo wòwɔ ɖe tasiaɖamwo ŋu la hã nɛ, esi nye sika Kerubi siwo keke woƒe aʋalãwo eye wodo vɔvɔlĩ ɖe Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la dzi.
19 All, said he, by writing sent to me by the hand of the Lord, which made me vnderstand all the workemanship of the paterne.
David gblɔ na Solomo be, “Yehowa ƒe asie ŋlɔ ɖoɖo siawo katã nam.
20 And Dauid said to Salomon his sonne, Be strong, and of a valiant courage and doe it: feare not, nor be afraide: for the Lord God, euen my God is with thee: he will not leaue thee nor forsake thee till thou hast finished all the worke for the seruice of the house of the Lord.

21 Beholde also, the companies of the Priests and the Leuites for all the seruice of the house of God, euen they shall be with thee for the whole worke, with euery free heart that is skilfull in any maner of seruice. The princes also and all the people will be wholy at thy commandement.
