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.
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 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.
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 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.'
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 I will establish his kingdom forever, if he continues to do my commandments and my ordinances, 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 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.
“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 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.
“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 Consider now, for YHWH has chosen you to build a house for him as a sanctuary. Be strong, and do it."
Koulye a, reflechi byen, paske SENYÈ a te fin chwazi ou menm pou bati yon kay pou sanktiyè a. Pran kouraj e aji.”
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;
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 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;
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 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;
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 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;
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 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;
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 the tables of show bread, for every 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 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;
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 gold for the pattern of the chariot, the cherubim that spread out their wings and covered 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 "All this," said David, "I have been made to understand in writing from the hand of YHWH, even all the works of this pattern."
David te di: “SENYÈ a te fè M konprann avèk men L ki te ekri pou mwen, tout detay a modèl sila a.”
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.
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 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."
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.”
