28 And, the rest of the people—the priests, the Levites, the doorkeepers, the singers, the Nethinim, and all who had separated themselves from the peoples of the lands unto the law of God, their wives, their sons and their daughters, —every one having knowledge and understanding,
Nou menm, moun pèp Izrayèl la, prèt yo, ak moun Levi yo, gad pòtay tanp yo, mizisyen tanp yo, travayè tanp yo, ak tout lòt moun yo ki te wete kò yo nan mitan moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi a pou nou ka fè sa lalwa Bondye a mande nou an, ansanm ak madanm nou yo, pitit gason ak pitit fi nou yo ki gen laj konprann,
29 were holding fast unto their distinguished brethren, and were entering into a curse and into an oath, to walk in the law of God, which was given through Moses the servant of God, —and to observe and do, all the commandments of Yahweh our Lord, and his regulations, and his statutes;
nou mete tèt nou ansanm ak frè nou yo ki chèf nan mitan nou, nou fè sèman pou nenpòt bagay rive nou si nou pa kenbe pwomès n'ap fè la a. Nou pran angajman n'ap mache dapre lalwa Bondye te bay Moyiz, sèvitè l' la, pou nou. Nou pran angajman n'ap obeyi tou sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, kòmande nou pou nou swiv ansanm ak tout regleman ak tout lòd li ban nou yo.
30 and that we would not give our daughters unto the peoples of the land, —and, their daughters, would we not take for our sons;
Nou pran angajman espesyalman pou nou pa marye pitit fi nou ak lòt moun k'ap viv nan peyi a, epi pou nou pa chwazi pitit fi moun sa yo pou marye ak pitit gason nou yo.
31 and, if the peoples of the land should be bringing in wares, or any corn on the sabbath day, to sell, we would not buy of them on the sabbath, or on a holy day, —and that we would remit the seventh year, and the loan of every hand.
Si moun sa yo pote machandiz osinon nenpòt pwovizyon vin vann nou jou repo a, nou p'ap achte anyen nan men yo jou sa a. Se menm bagay la tou si se yon jou fèt pou Seyè a. Chak sètan, n'a kite jaden nou yo poze, epi tout moun ki dwe nou, n'a kite dèt la pou yo.
32 And we laid on ourselves charges, appointing for ourselves the third of a shekel, yearly, —for the service of the house of our God:
Men lòt obligasyon nou bay tèt nou ankò: Chak lanne, chak moun ap bay yon demi ka ons ajan pou depans y'ap fè pou sèvis Bondye nou an nan tanp lan.
33 for the bread to set in array, and the continual meal-offering, and for the continual ascending-sacrifice, of the sabbaths, of the new moons, for the appointed feasts, and for things hallowed, and for victims bearing sin, to put a propitiatory-covering over Israel, —and for all the work of the house of our God.
N'a bay tou pen pou yo mete apa pou Bondye yo, ofrann grenn pou chak jou yo, bèt pou yo boule chak jou pou Bondye yo, ofrann pou jou repo yo, pou fèt lalin nouvèl yo, ak pou lòt gwo fèt yo, manje pou yo mete apa pou Bondye yo, ofrann pou wete peche moun pèp Izrayèl yo, ak tout lòt bagay yo ka bezwen pou fè sèvis nan tanp Bondye nou an.
34 Also, lots, did we cast, concerning the offering of wood among the priests, the Levites, and the people, to bring it unto the house of our God, by our ancestral houses, at times arranged, year by year, —to burn upon the altar of Yahweh our God, as it is written in the law.
Nou menm, prèt yo, moun Levi yo ak rès pèp la, men ki jan pou nou regle keksyon livrezon bwa pou tanp lan: Chak lanne y'a tire osò pou konnen kilè chak fanmi, yonn apre lòt, va pote bwa y'a bezwen pou boule sou lotèl Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan sa ekri nan lalwa Bondye a.
35 And that we would bring in the firstfruits of our ground, and the firstfruit of all fruit of all trees, year by year, —unto the house of Yahweh;
Nou deside tou chak lanne, n'a pote nan tanp lan pou n' ofri bay Seyè a premye grenn nou rekòlte nan jaden nou ak premye fwi ki mi sou tout pyebwa nou yo.
36 also that, the firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle, as it is written in the law, —and the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks, we would bring in unto the house of our God, unto the priests who should be in attendance in the house of our God;
Jan sa ekri nan lalwa Bondye a, n'a pote bay prèt yo k'ap sèvi nan tanp Bondye nou an premye pitit gason nou yo lè yo fèt pou yo ka mete yo apa pou Bondye. Konsa tou, n'a pote ba yo premye ti towo manman bèf nou yo va fè ak premye ti belye manman mouton nou yo va fè ak premye ti bouk manman kabrit nou yo va fè paske se pou prèt yo yo ye.
37 and, the first part of our meal and our heave-offerings and the fruit of all trees, new wine and oil, would we bring in unto the priests, into the chambers of the house of our God, and the tithe of our ground unto the Levites, —the Levites themselves, taking the tithes in all our cities of agriculture.
Konsa tou, n'a pote bay prèt yo kote y'ap viv nan tanp lan pen n'a fè ak premye grenn n'a rekòlte chak lanne yo, ansanm ak lòt ofrann fwi pyebwa nou yo va donnen, diven ki fenk fèt ak lwil oliv fre. N'a pote ladim tout rekòt n'a fè nan jaden nou bay moun Levi yo. Se yo menm ki va mache nan tout ti bouk nou yo pou ranmase ladim kote yo fè jaden.
38 And the priest the son of Aaron should be with the Levites, when the Levites should take the tithes, —and the Levites, should bring up the tithe of the tithe, unto the house of our God, into the chambers pertaining unto the treasure-house.
Yonn nan pret yo, ki soti nan branch fanmi Arawon an, va toujou ale avèk moun Levi yo lè yo pral ranmase ladim lan. Lèfini, moun Levi yo va pote mete nan depo pwovizyon tanp lan yon dizyèm nan tout ladim y'a ranmase a pou sèvis Tanp lan.
39 For, into the chambers, should the sons of Israel and the sons of Levi bring in the heave-offering of the corn, the new wine and the oil, since, there, are the utensils of the sanctuary, and the priests who are in attendance, and the doorkeepers, and the singers, —so would we not neglect the house of our God.
Se nan chanm depo tanp lan moun pèp Izrayèl yo ak moun Levi yo va pote tout grenn, tout diven ak tout lwil yo fèt pou bay la. Se la tou y'a mete tout veso ak tout lòt bagay ki pou sèvi nan tanp lan. Epitou, prèt desèvis yo, gad pòtay tanp yo ak mizisyen tanp yo va gen kote pou yo rete la tou. Se konsa nou pran angajman nou p'ap janm neglije kay Bondye nou an ankò!
