< 2 Chronicles 31 >
1 And at the completion of all this, all [those of] Israel who are found present have gone out to the cities of Judah, and break the standing-pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and break down the high places and the altars, out of all Judah and Benjamin, and in Ephraim and Manasseh, even to completion, and all the sons of Israel return, each to his possession, to their cities.
Lè fèt la fini, tout moun pèp Izrayèl ki te la yo ale nan tout lavil pèyi Jida yo. Yo kraze moniman wòch yo, yo jete estati zidòl Achera yo, yo demoli dènye tanp ak lotèl kote yo fè sèvis pou zidòl yo. Yo mache fè sa nan tout peyi Jida a, nan peyi moun Benjamen, moun Efrayim ak moun Manase yo. Lèfini, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo tounen lakay yo nan peyi pa yo.
2 And Hezekiah appoints the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, by their divisions, each according to his service, of the priests and of the Levites, for burnt-offering and for peace-offerings, to minister and to give thanks, and to give praise in the gates of the camps of YHWH.
Apre sa, Ezekyas separe prèt yo ak moun Levi yo an gwoup ankò. Li bay chak gwoup lè pou yo pran sèvis yonn apre lòt. Nan chak gwoup, chak moun te gen travay pa yo pou fè lè y'ap boule bèt nèt pou Seyè a, lè y'ap fè ofrann pou mande Bondye padon, lè y'ap di Bondye mèsi, lè y'ap fè lwanj li, lè y'ap sèvi l' nan papòt Tanp Seyè a.
3 And a portion of the king, from his substance, [is] for burnt-offerings, for burnt-offerings of the morning and of the evening, and the burnt-offerings of Sabbaths, and of new moons, and of appointed times, as it is written in the Law of YHWH.
Apre sa, li pran nan bèt ki pou li yo li bay pou yo boule nèt pou Seyè a chak maten, chak aswè, pou ofrann jou repo yo, pou fèt lalin nouvèl ak pou lòt gwo jou fèt yo, jan sa ekri nan Lalwa Seyè a.
4 And he commands to the people, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to give the portion of the priests and of the Levites, so that they are strengthened in the Law of YHWH;
Lèfini, li mande moun ki rete lavil Jerizalèm yo pou yo fè ofrann pou prèt ak moun Levi yo, pou mesye sa yo ka bay tout tan yo nan fè travay yo, jan Lalwa Seyè a mande l' la.
5 and at the spreading forth of the thing, the sons of Israel have multiplied the first-fruit of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field, and they have brought in the tithe of the whole in abundance.
Lè nouvèl la gaye, moun pèp Izrayèl yo pote premye sa yo rekolte nan ble, nan diven, nan lwil oliv, nan siwo myèl ak nan tout lòt danre jaden yo an kantite. Lèfini, yo pote yon dizyèm sou tou sa yo te genyen.
6 And the sons of Israel and Judah, those dwelling in cities of Judah, have also brought in a tithe of herd and flock, and a tithe of the holy things that are sanctified to their God YHWH, and they set [them in] heaps of heaps.
Tout moun peyi Izrayèl ak moun peyi Jida ki t'ap viv nan lòt lavil peyi Jida yo te bay yon bèt pou chak dis bèf osinon kabrit ak mouton yo te genyen. Yo pote yon dizyèm nan tout bagay yo te mete apa pou Bondye, sèl Mèt yo a. Yo pote yo fè pil sou pil.
7 In the third month they have begun to lay the foundation of the heaps, and in the seventh month they have finished.
Yo konmanse pote kado yo depi nan twazyèm mwa a rive sou setyèm mwa a.
8 And Hezekiah and the heads come in and see the heaps, and bless YHWH and His people Israel,
Lè wa Ezekyas ak chèf li yo wè kantite bagay moun yo te bay, yo di Bondye mèsi, yo fè lwanj pou pèp Izrayèl la, pèp Bondye a.
9 and Hezekiah inquires at the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps,
Lè sa a, Ezekyas pale ak prèt yo ansanm ak moun Levi yo sou koze ofrann yo.
10 and Azariah the head priest, of the house of Zadok, speaks to him and says, “From the beginning of the bringing of the raised-offering to the house of YHWH, [there is enough] to eat, and to be satisfied, and to leave abundantly, for YHWH has blessed His people, and that left [is] this store.”
Azarya, granprèt la, moun fanmi Zadòk yo, di l' konsa: -Depi lè pèp la konmanse ap pote ofrann nan Tanp lan, gen kont manje pou moun manje. Lèfini, rete yon bon kantite, paske Seyè a beni pèp li a. Sa ki rete la a, se sa ki te anplis la.
11 And Hezekiah commands to prepare chambers in the house of YHWH, and they prepare,
Ezekyas bay lòd pou yo pare kèk pyès nan Tanp lan pou sèvi depo. Lè depo yo fin pare,
12 and they bring in the raised-offering, and the tithe, and the holy things faithfully; and over them is a leader, Conaniah the Levite, and his brother Shimei [is] second;
li fè mete tout sa yo te pran sou rekòt yo, tout ladim yo ak tout bagay yo te mete apa pou Bondye yo ladan yo. Yo mete Konanya, yon moun Levi, chèf reskonsab ak Chimèyi, frè li, pou adjwen.
13 and Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, [are] inspectors under the hand of Conaniah and his brother Shimei, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah leader of the house of God.
Yo chwazi dis moun pou travay sou lòd Konanya ak Chimèyi, frè li a, dapre lòd wa a ak Azarya, prèt reskonsab Tanp lan, te bay. Se te Jeiyèl, Azaryawou, Nakat, Asayèl, Jerimòt, Jozaba, Eliyèl, Jismakya, Makat ak Benaja.
14 And Kore son of Imnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east, [is] over the willing-offerings of God, to give the raised-offering of YHWH, and the most holy things.
Kore, pitit Jimna a, yon moun Levi ki te chèf gad nan Pòtay sou solèy leve Tanp lan, te reskonsab resevwa kado moun yo te ofri pou Seyè a paske yo te vle. Se li tou ki pou te separe ofrann yo te fè pou Seyè a ak pòsyon yo te mete apa nèt pou Seyè a.
15 And by his hand [are] Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shechaniah, in cities of the priests, faithfully to give to their brothers in divisions, as the great so the small,
Nan lòt lavil kote prèt yo rete a, men moun ki te toujou la pou ede Kore: Se te Edèn, Menjamin, Jechwa, Chemaja, Amarya ak Chekanya. Se yo menm ki pou te separe manje a bay moun Levi parèy yo, gran kou piti, dapre travay yo gen pou fè.
16 apart from their genealogy, to males from a son of three years and upward, to everyone who has gone into the house of YHWH, by the matter of a day in its day, for their service in their charges, according to their divisions;
Non sèlman yo te bay tout moun Levi ki te gen non yo pote nan rejis fanmi yo, depi sa ki gen twazan laj pou pi piti, pòsyon manje pa yo, men yo te bay chak gwoup moun Levi ki te travay nan Tanp Seyè a chak jou, dapre jou travay yo ak dapre travay yo gen pou fè.
17 and the genealogy of the priests by the house of their fathers, and of the Levites, from a son of twenty years and upward, in their charges, in their divisions;
Prèt yo te enskri dapre fanmi yo. Men moun Levi yo, depi sa ki gen ventan pou pi piti, te enskri dapre travay pou yo fè ak jou pou yo travay.
18 and to the genealogy among all their infants, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters to all the congregation, for in their faithfulness they sanctify themselves in holiness.
Yo tout te enskri ansanm ak pitit gason yo, pitit fi yo, madanm yo ak tout moun ki sou kont yo, pou yo te ka bay tout tan yo pou travay nan Tanp Bondye a.
19 And for sons of Aaron, the priests, in the fields of the outskirt of their cities, in each and every city, [are] men who have been defined by name, to give portions to every male among the priests, and to everyone who reckoned himself by genealogy among the Levites.
Yo te chwazi moun tou pou mete reskonsab separe manje bay tout prèt yo, moun fanmi Arawon yo, ak moun Levi ki te enskri nan rejis yo epi ki t'ap viv andeyò nan vwazinaj lavil prèt yo.
20 And Hezekiah does thus in all Judah, and does that which is good, and that which is right, and that which is true, before his God YHWH;
Se konsa Ezekyas te fè nan tout peyi Jida a. Li te fè sa ki byen, sa ki dwat ak tout kè li devan Seyè a, Bondye li a.
21 and in every work that he has begun for the service of the house of God, and for the Law, and for the command, to seek for his God with all his heart, he has worked and prospered.
Nan tou sa li te fè pou sèvis Tanp Bondye a, pou lalwa ak pou kòmandman Bondye yo, li te chache fè volonte Bondye ak tout kè li. Se poutèt sa tout bagay te mache byen pou li.
