< 1 Chronicles 28 >
1 And David assembles all the heads of Israel, heads of the tribes, and heads of the divisions who are serving the king, and heads of the thousands, and heads of the hundreds, and heads of all the substance and possessions of the king, and of his sons, with the officers and the mighty ones, and of every mighty man of valor—to Jerusalem.
Alò, David te rasanble nan Jérusalem tout ofisye Israël yo, chèf a tribi yo, kòmandan a divizyon ki te sèvi wa yo, kòmandan a dè milye yo avèk kòmandan a dè santèn yo, sipèvizè a tout teren avèk bèt ki te apatyen a wa a, avèk fis li yo, avèk ofisye yo ak mesye pwisan yo, menm tout mesye gwo kouraj yo.
2 And David the king rises on his feet and says, “Hear me, my brothers and my people, I [had it] with my heart to build a house of rest for the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, and for the footstool of our God, and I prepared to build,
Epi Wa David te leve sou pye li e te di: “Koute mwen, frè m yo ak pèp mwen an! Mwen te gen entansyon bati yon kay repo pou lach akò SENYÈ a e pou machpye Bondye nou an. Pou sa, mwen te fè preparasyon yo pou bati li.
3 and God has said to me, You do not build a house for My Name, for you [are] a man of wars, and you have shed blood.
Men Bondye te di mwen: ‘Ou p ap bati yon kay pou non Mwen, akoz ou se yon nonm lagè, e ou te vèse san.’
4 And YHWH, God of Israel, fixes on me out of all the house of my father to be for king over Israel for all time, for He has fixed on Judah for a leader, and in the house of Judah, the house of my father, and among the sons of my father, He has been pleased with me to make [me] king over all Israel;
Sepandan, SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, te chwazi mwen soti nan tout lakay papa m pou vin wa sou Israël jis pou tout tan.
5 and out of all my sons—for YHWH has given many sons to me—He also fixes on my son Solomon, to sit on the throne of the kingdom of YHWH over Israel,
Pami tout fis mwen yo, (paske SENYÈ a te ban mwen anpil fis), Li te chwazi fis mwen an, Salomon pou chita sou twòn wayòm SENYÈ a sou Israël.
6 and says to me, Your son Solomon builds My house and My courts, for I have fixed on him [to be] to Me for a son, and I am to him for a father.
Li te di mwen: ‘Fis ou a, Salomon, se li menm ki va bati kay Mwen an, ak tout lakou li yo; paske Mwen te chwazi Li pou devni yon fis pou Mwen e Mwen va yon papa pou li.
7 And I have established his kingdom for all time, if he is strong to do My commands and My judgments, as at this day.
Mwen va etabli wayòm li jis pou tout tan si avèk tout kè li, li fè kòmandman Mwen yo avèk règleman Mwen yo, jan sa ap fèt koulye a.’”
8 And now, before the eyes of all Israel, the assembly of YHWH, and in the ears of our God, keep and seek all the commands of your God YHWH, so that you possess this good land, and have caused your sons to inherit after you for all time.
“Pou sa, koulye a, devan zye a tout Israël, asanble SENYÈ a e nan tande a Bondye nou an, swiv e pran a kè tout kòmandman a SENYÈ yo, Bondye nou an, pou nou kapab posede bon peyi a e bay li a fis apre nou yo, jis pou tout tan.
9 And you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind, for YHWH is seeking all hearts, and He is understanding every imagination of the thoughts; if you seek Him, He is found by you, and if you forsake Him, He casts you off forever.
“Epi pou ou menm, fis mwen an, Salomon, fè konesans a Bondye papa ou a e sèvi li avèk tout kè ou e avèk bòn volonte; paske SENYÈ a chache nan tout kè yo e byen konprann entansyon a tout panse yo. Si ou chache Li, Li va kite ou jwenn Li; men si ou abandone Li, Li va rejte ou jis pou tout tan.
10 See, now, for YHWH has fixed on you to build a house for a sanctuary; be strong, and do.”
Koulye a, reflechi byen, paske SENYÈ a te fin chwazi ou menm pou bati yon kay pou sanktiyè a. Pran kouraj e aji.”
11 And David gives to his son Solomon the pattern of the porch, and of its houses, and of its treasures, and of its upper chambers, and of its innermost chambers, and of the house of the atonement;
Epi David te bay a fis li Salomon, plan pou fè galri tanp lan, tout chanm li yo, avèk chanm trezò li yo, chanm anlè li yo, chanm enteryè li yo, ak chanm pou twòn pwopiyatwa a;
12 and the pattern of all that has been with him by the Spirit, for the courts of the house of YHWH, and for all the surrounding chambers, for the treasures of the house of God, and for the treasures of the things sacrificed;
epi plan a tout sa ke li te gen nan tèt li, pou lakou lakay SENYÈ a e pou tout chanm ki te antoure l yo, pou chanm trezò lakay Bondye yo, e pou chanm trezò pou tout bagay konsakre yo;
13 and for the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of YHWH, and for all vessels of service of the house of YHWH,
anplis, pou divizyon a prèt yo avèk Levit yo pou tout travay sèvis lakay SENYÈ a e pou tout zouti sèvis lakay SENYÈ yo;
14 even gold by weight, for [things of] gold, for all instruments of every service; for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of every service;
pou zouti an lò yo, lò pou tout zouti pou tout kalite sèvis yo, pou zouti an ajan yo, ajan pou tout zouti a tout kalite sèvis yo;
15 and [by] weight for the lampstands of gold, and their lamps of gold, by weight [for] lampstand and lampstand, and its lamps; and for the lampstands of silver, by weight for a lampstand and its lamps, according to the service of lampstand and lampstand;
epi lò pou baz chandelye an lò yo avèk lanp pa li yo; epi ajan a baz chandelye an ajan yo, avèk pwa a chak baz avèk lanp pa li yo selon sèvis a chak chandelye;
16 and the gold [by] weight for tables of the arrangement, for table and table, and silver for the tables of silver;
epi pwa a lò a pou tab pen konsakre pou chak tab la; epi ajan pou tab an ajan yo;
17 and the forks, and the bowls, and the cups of pure gold, and for the basins of gold, by weight for basin and basin, and for the basins of silver, by weight for basin and basin,
epi fouchèt yo, basen yo ak krich an lò pi yo; epi pou bòl an lò yo avèk pwa pou chak bòl; epi pou bòl an ajan avèk pwa a chak bòl;
18 and for the altar of incense, refined gold by weight, and for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubim of gold, spreading and covering over the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH.
epi pou lotèl lansan an lò rafine pa pwa; epi lò pou modèl a cha a, menm cheriben ki te ouvri zèl yo pou te kouvri lach akò SENYÈ a.
19 The whole [is] in writing from the hand of YHWH, “He caused me to understand all the work of the pattern,” [said David.]
David te di: “SENYÈ a te fè M konprann avèk men L ki te ekri pou mwen, tout detay a modèl sila a.”
20 And David says to his son Solomon, “Be strong and courageous, and do; do not fear nor be frightened, for YHWH God, my God, [is] with you; He does not fail you, nor forsake you, to the completion of all the work of the service of the house of YHWH.
Konsa, David te di a fis li, Salomon: “Kenbe fèm, pran kouraj e aji pran desizyon. Pa pè, ni dekouraje, paske SENYÈ a, Bondye a, avèk ou. Li p ap fè fayit, ni Li p ap abandone ou jiskaske ke tout lèv pou lakay SENYÈ a fini.
21 And behold, divisions of the priests and of the Levites [are] for all the service of the house of God; and with you in all work [is] every willing one with wisdom, for every service; and the heads and all the people [are] according to all your words.”
Alò, gade byen, men divizyon a prèt yo avèk Levit yo pou tout sèvis lakay Bondye yo e tout mesye avèk kapasite yo va avèk ou nan travay la pou tout kalite sèvis yo. Anplis, ofisye yo avèk tout pèp la va disponib nèt sou lòd pa ou.”
