< Ezra 6 >
1 Then King Darius gaue commandement, and they made search in the librarie of the treasures, which were there layd vp in Babel.
Wa Darius te pibliye yon dekrè e yon rechèch te fèt nan achiv yo kote trezò yo te depoze Babylone nan.
2 And there was founde in a coffer (in the palace that was in the prouince of the Medes) a volume, and therein was it thus written, as a memoriall,
Nan Achemetha, nan fò a, ki nan pwovens a Médie a, yo te twouve yon woulo, e ladann te ekri konsa kon yon rekòd anrejistre:
3 IN THE FIRST yeere of King Cyrus, King Cyrus made a decree for the house of God in Ierusalem, Let the house be buylt, euen the place where they offred sacrifices, and let the walles thereof be ioyned together: let the height thereof be three score cubites, and the breadth thereof three score cubites,
Nan premye ane a Wa Cyrus la, Cyrus, wa a, te pibliye yon dekrè: Sou kay Bondye nan Jérusalem nan, kite tanp kote sakrifis konn vin ofri yo vin rebati, e kite fondasyon li yo konsève, wotè ki swasant koude a e lajè ki swasant koude a
4 Three orders of great stones, and one order of timber, and let the expenses be giuen of the Kings house.
avèk twa ranje gwo wòch taye ak yon ranje an bwa. Epi kite frè a peye soti nan trezò wa a.
5 And also let them render the vessels of the house of God (of golde and siluer, which Nebuchadnezzar tooke out of the Temple, which was in Ierusalem, and brought vnto Babel) and let him goe vnto the Temple that is in Ierusalem to his place, and put them in the house of God.
Anplis, kite zouti an lò avèk ajan ki pou lakay Bondye yo, ke Nebucadnetsar te pran soti nan tanp Jérusalem nan pou te pote Babylone nan, remèt e fè retounen nan plas yo nan tanp Jérusalem nan. Konsa, nou va depoze yo nan kay Bondye a.
6 Therefore Tatnai captaine beyond the Riuer, and Shethar Boznai, (and their companions Apharsecaie, which are beyonde the Riuer) be ye farre from thence.
Alò, pou sa, Thathnaï, ou menm, gouvènè pwovens lòtbò rivyè a, Schethar-Boznaï avèk kòlèg parèy ou yo, ofisyèl nan pwovens lòtbò rivyè yo, rete lwen de la.
7 Suffer ye the worke of this house of God, that the captaine of the Iewes and the Elders of the Iewes may buylde this house of God in his place.
Kite travay sila sou kay Bondye a kontinye; kite gouvènè a Jwif yo avèk ansyen a Jwif yo rebati lakay Bondye a sou sit anplasman li an.
8 For I haue giuen a commandement what ye shall doe to the Elders of these Iewes, for the buylding of this house of God, that of the reuenues of the King, which is of the tribute beyonde the Riuer, there be incontinently expenses giuen vnto these men that they cease not.
Anplis, Mwen menm, Darius, ap bay yon dekrè sou sa nou gen pou fè pou ansyen sila yo nan Juda pou rekonstriksyon lakay Bondye sila a: Tout frè li se pou peye a pèp sila yo soti nan kès trezò ki sòti nan taks ki sòti nan pwovens lòtbò rivyè yo. Epi sa dwe fèt san fè reta.
9 And that which they shall haue neede of, let it be giuen vnto them day by day, whether it be yong bullockes, or rammes, or lambes for the burnt offrings of the God of heauen, wheate, salt, wine, and oyle, according to the appoyntment of the Priestes that are in Ierusalem, that there bee no fault,
Nenpòt sa ki nesesè, ni jenn towo, belye, ni jenn mouton pou ofrann brile a Bondye syèl la, e ble, sèl, diven ak lwil onksyon, jan prèt Jérusalem yo mande a, fòk sa bay a yo chak jou san manke,
10 That they may haue to offer sweete odours vnto the God of heauen, and praye for the Kings life, and for his sonnes.
pou yo kab ofri sakrifis agreyab a Bondye syèl la, e priye pou lavi a wa a avèk fis li yo.
11 And I haue made a decree, that whosoeuer shall alter this sentence, the wood shall be pulled downe from his house, and shall be set vp, and he shalbe hanged thereon, and his house shalbe made a dunghill for this.
Epi mwen te pibliye yon lòd ke nenpòt moun ki vyole dekrè sa a, yon travès bwa va rache sou pwòp kay li, li va leve wo, e atache sou li. E lakay li va devni yon gwo pil fatra.
12 And the God that hath caused his Name to dwell there, destroy all Kings and people that put to their hand to alter, and to destroy this house of God, which is in Ierusalem. I Darius haue made a decree, let it be done with speede.
Ke Bondye ki te fè non Li rete la, ta dechouke nenpòt wa oswa pèp ki ta leve men l chanje sa a pou li ta detwi kay Bondye sa a, Jérusalem. Mwen, Darius, te pase lòd sa a. Kite li akonpli avèk dilijans!
13 Then Tatnai the captaine beyond the Riuer, and Shethar Boznai and their companions, according to that which Darius had sent, so they did speedily.
Alò, Thathnaï, gouvènè pwovens lòtbò rivyè a, Schethar-Boznaï, avèk kolèg parèy a yo te konfòme avèk dilijans a lòd sa a jan Wa Darius te voye bay li a.
14 So the Elders of the Iewes builded, and they prospered by the prophecying of Haggai the Prophet, and Zechariah the sonne of Iddo, and they buylded and finished it, by the appoyntment of the God of Israel, and by the commandement of Cyrus and Darius, and Artahshashte king of Persia.
Epi ansyen pami Jwif yo te reyisi nan konstriksyon an selon asistans pwofesi ki t ap fèt pa Aggée avèk Zacharie yo, fis a Iddo a. Konsa, yo te fin bati selon lòd Bondye Israël la, dekrè a Cyrus la, Darius ak Artaxerxès, wa a Perse la.
15 And this house was finished the thirde day of the moneth Adar, which was the sixt yeere of the reigne of King Darius.
Tanp sa a te fini sou twazyèm jou nan mwa Adar a. Li te nan sizyèm ane règn Wa Darius la.
16 And the children of Israel, the Priestes, and the Leuites, and the residue of the children of the captiuitie kept the dedication of this house of God with ioy,
Epi fis Israël yo, prèt yo, Levit yo ak tout lòt moun egzil ki te retounen yo, te selebre dedikasyon kay Bondye sila a avèk jwa.
17 And offred at the dedication of this house of God an hundreth bullockes, two hundreth rams, foure hundreth lambes, and twelue goates, for the sinne of all Israel, according to the nomber of the tribes of Israel.
Yo te ofri pou dedikasyon tanp Bondye sila a san towo, de-san belye, kat-san jenn mouton, e kon ofrann peche pou tout Israël la, douz mal kabrit ki te koresponn a non tribi Israël yo.
18 And they set the Priests in their order, and the Leuites in their courses ouer the seruice of God in Ierusalem, as it is written in the booke of Moses.
Epi yo te chwazi prèt yo a divizyon pa yo ak Levit yo nan lòd pa yo pou sèvis Bondye Jérusalem nan, jan sa ekri nan liv Moïse la.
19 And the childre of the captiuitie kept the Passeouer on ye fourtenth day of the first moneth.
Moun egzil yo te obsève fèt Pak la nan katòzyèm jou nan premye mwa a.
20 (For the Priests and the Leuites were purified altogether) and they killed the Passeouer for all the children of the captiuitie, and for their brethren the Priests, and for themselues.
Paske prèt yo avèk Levit yo te fin pirifye yo ansanm, yo tout nan yo te pwòp. Epi yo te touye jenn mouton Pak la pou tout moun egzil yo, ni pou frè pa yo, prèt yo ak pou yo menm.
21 So the children of Israel which were come againe out of captiuitie, and all such as had separated themselues vnto them, from the filthines of the Heathen of the land, to seeke the Lord God of Israel, did eate,
Fis a Israël ki te retounen an egzil yo, e tout sila ki te separe yo menm de lempite a nasyon nan peyi yo pou fè ansanm avèk yo, pou chache SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, te manje Pak la.
22 And they kept ye feast of vnleauened bread seuen dayes with ioy: for the Lord had made them glad, and turned the heart of the King of Asshur vnto them, to incourage them in the worke of the house of God, euen the God of Israel.
Epi yo te obsève Fèt Pen San Ledven an pandan sèt jou avèk jwa, paske SENYÈ a te fè yo rejwi, e te detounen kè a wa a Assyrie a vè yo pou ankouraje yo nan travay lakay Bondye a, Bondye Israël la.
