1 Chronicles 28
1 And David assembled all the officials of Israel, the officials of the tribes, and the officers of the companies who served the king by division, and the commanders of thousands, and the commanders of hundreds, and the stewards over all the substance and possessions of the king and of his sons, with the officers, and the mighty men, even all the mighty men of valor, to Jerusalem.
David loh Israel mangpa boeih, koca kah mangpa rhoek, manghai taengah aka thotat rhoek kah boelnah mangpa rhoek, thawng khat kah mangpa rhoek, yakhat kah mangpa rhoek, khuehtawn boeih kah mangpa rhoek, manghai kah boiva neh imkhoem taengkah a ca rhoek khaw, hlangrhalh rhoek neh Jerusalem kah tatthai hlangrhalh boeih te khaw a tingtun sak.
2 Then David the king stood up on his feet, and said, "Hear me, my brothers, and my people. As for me, it was in 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 had prepared for the building.
Te phoeiah David manghai te a kho neh pai tih, “Ka manuca neh ka pilnam rhoek kai ol he hnatun uh, kai he ka thinko ah tah BOEIPA paipi thingkawng kah duemnah neh mamih Pathen kho kah khotloeng ham im sa la ka cai tih sak ham ka sikim coeng.
3 But God said to me, 'You shall not build a house for my name, because you are a man of war, and have shed blood.'
Tedae Pathen loh kai taengah, 'Ka ming ham te im na sa mahpawh, nang tah caemtloek hlang tih thii na long sak dongah,’ a ti.
4 However YHWH, the God of Israel, chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever. For he has chosen Judah to be prince; and in the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel.
Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh kai he Israel soah kumhal hil manghai la om ham a pa imkhui pum lamloh n'coelh. Judah te khaw rhaengsang la acoelh bal. Te dongah Judah imkhui lamloh a pa imkhui tih a pa pacaboeina khui lamloh kai he tah Israel boeih soah manghai sak ham a ngaingaih.
5 Of all my sons (for YHWH has given me many sons), he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of YHWH's kingdom over Israel.
BOEIPA loh kai he ca muep m'paek dae ka ca boeih khuiah khaw BOEIPA ram kah ngolkhoel dongah Israel ngol thil ham tah ka capa Solomon te ni a coelh.
6 He said to me, 'Solomon, your son, shall build my house and my courts; for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.
Kamah taengah khaw, 'Na capa Solomon loh ka im neh ka vongtung a sak ni. Anih te kamah kah capa la ka coelh dongah kai khaw anih ham a napa la ka om ni.
7 I will establish his kingdom forever, if he continues to do my commandments and my ordinances, as at this day.'
Tahae khohnin kah bangla ka olpaek neh ka laitloeknah vai ham te a tlungmu mak atah a ram te kumhal duela ka cikngae sak ni,’ a ti.
8 Now therefore, in the sight of all Israel, the assembly of YHWH, and in the audience of our God, observe and seek out all the commandments of YHWH your God; that you may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you forever.
Te dongah BOEIPA kah hlangping, Israel pum kah mikhmuh neh mamih kah Pathen hna ah khaw ngaithuen uh laeh. Nangmih kah Pathen, BOEIPA kah olpaek boeih te toem uh. Te daengah ni khohmuen then te na pang uh vetih nangmih hnuk ah na ca rhoek te khaw kumhal duela na phaeng uh thai eh.
9 You, Solomon my son, know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for YHWH searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.
Ka capa Solomon nang khaw na pa kah Pathen te ming. Amah te lungbuei neh a rhuemtuet la thothueng lamtah hinglu neh omtoem lah. Thinko boeih he BOEIPA loh a toem tih kopoek kah benbonah boeih khaw a yakming. Amah te na toem atah nang taengah ha phoe vetih amah te na hnoo atah a yoeyah la nang n'hlahpham ni.
10 Consider now, for YHWH has chosen you to build a house for him as a sanctuary. Be strong, and do it."
BOEIPA loh Im sak hamla nang n'coelh te hmu laeh. Rhokso hamla thaahuel lamtah saii.
11 Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch of the temple, and of its houses, and of its treasuries, and of the upper rooms of it, and of the inner rooms of it, and of the place of the mercy seat;
David loh a capa Solomon taengah ngalha neh a im khaw, a kawn-im neh a imhman khaw, a imkhui khuisaek neh a tlaeng im khaw a muei te boeih a paek.
12 and the pattern of all that he had by the Spirit, for the courts of the house of YHWH, and for all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of God's house, and for the treasuries of the dedicated things;
BOEIPA im kah vongup ham neh a kaepvai kah imkhan boeih ham khaw, Pathen im kah thakvoh ham khaw, hmuencim thakvoh ham khaw a cungkuem dongkah a muei te a khuiah mueihla rhang neh a om pah coeng.
13 also for the divisions of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of YHWH, and for all the vessels of service in the house of YHWH;
Khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek kah boelnah ham khaw, BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah bitat cungkuem ham khaw, BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah hnopai cungkuem ham khaw.
14 of gold by weight for the gold, for all vessels of every kind of service; for all the vessels of silver by weight, for all vessels of every kind of service;
Thothuengnah sui hnopai cungkuem neh thothuengnah dongkah ham sui te khaw a khiing neh, cak hnopai cungkuem ham khaw a khiing neh, thothuengnah hnopai cungkuem neh thothuengnah ham khaw.
15 by weight also for the lampstands of gold, and for its lamps, of gold, by weight for every lampstand and for its lamps; and for the lampstands of silver, by weight for every lampstand and for its lamps, according to the use of every lampstand;
Sui hmaitung neh a hmaithoi dongkah a khiing tah sui hmaitung kah a khiing bangla hmaitung neh a hmaithoi te a khueh. Cak hmaitung ham khaw hmaitung pakhat neh hmaitung pakhat kah thohtatnah bangla hmaitung neh a hmaithoi kah a khiing te a khueh.
16 and the gold by weight for the tables of show bread, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver;
Rhungkung caboei dongkah caboei neh caboei ham sui khaw a khiing neh, cak caboei dongkah ham cak khaw a khueh.
17 and the forks, and the basins, and the cups, of pure gold; and for the golden bowls by weight for every bowl; and for the silver bowls by weight for every bowl;
Ciksum neh baelcak khaw, sui cilh tui-um neh sui bael ham khaw, bael neh bael ham khaw a khiing neh, cak bael dongkah bael neh bael khaw a khiing neh,
18 and for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot, the cherubim that spread out their wings and covered the ark of the covenant of YHWH.
Bo-ul hmueihtuk dongkah sui a ciil khaw a khiing neh, phuel uh tih BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng soah aka khuk sui cherubim leng kah muei ham khaw.
19 "All this," said David, "I have been made to understand in writing from the hand of YHWH, even all the works of this pattern."
BOEIPA kut lamkah ca dongah khaw cungkuem coeng tih a muei dongkah bitat cungkuem dongah khaw kai he n'cangbam coeng.
20 David said to Solomon his son, "Be strong and courageous, and do it. Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed; for YHWH God, even my God, is with you. He will not leave you or forsake you, until all the work for the service of the house of YHWH is finished.
Te phoeiah David loh a capa Solomon te, “Thaahuel lamtah namning lamtah saii. Rhih boeh, rhihyawp boeh. Kai kah Pathen, Yahweh Pathen tah nang taengah om. BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah bitat cungkuem a khah ham hil te nang n'rhael pawt vetih nang te n'hnoo mahpawh.
21 Look, there are the divisions of the priests and the Levites, for all the service of God's house. There shall be with you in all kinds of work every willing man who has skill, for any kind of service. Also the captains and all the people will be entirely at your command."
Pathen im kah thothuengnah cungkuem ham khaw khosoih neh Levi rhoek kah boelnah om coeng he. Hlangcong cungkuem lamkah khaw bitat cungkuem dongah, thothuengnah cungkuem dongah cueihnah neh nang taengah om. Mangpa rhoek neh pilnam boeih khaw a cungkuem ah nang ol bangla om uh saeh,” a ti nah.
