< Numbers 8 >
1 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
2 Speak to Aaron and you will say to him when lifting up you the lamps to [the] front of [the] face of the lampstand they will give light [the] seven the lamps.
-Pale ak Arawon. W'a di l' konsa: Lè l'ap fè moute sèt ti lanp yo sou pye gwo lanp sèt branch lan, ranje yo yon jan pou yo klere sou devan gwo lanp sèt branch lan.
3 And he did so Aaron to [the] front of [the] face of the lampstand he lifted up lamps its just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
Arawon swiv lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz la: li fè moute ti lanp yo pou yo ka klere sou devan gwo lanp sèt branch lan.
4 And this [was] [the] work of the lampstand hammered work gold to base its to blossom its [was] hammered work it like the appearance which he had shown Yahweh Moses so he made the lampstand.
Men ki jan gwo lanp lan te fèt: tout kò a nèt te fèt ak pi bon lò ki genyen. Yo te fè depi pye gwo lanp lan jouk flè yo nan yon sèl gwo moso lò, dapre modèl Seyè a te fè Moyiz wè nan vizyon an.
5 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
Seyè a pale ak Mwiz, li di l' konsa:
6 Take the Levites from among [the] people of Israel and you will purify them.
-Wete moun Levi yo nan mitan rès pèp Izrayèl la. Mete yo nan kondisyon pou yo ka fè sèvis pou mwen.
7 And thus you will do to them to purify them spatter on them water of sin offering and they will cause to pass a razor over all body their and they will wash clothes their and they will purify themselves.
Men ki jan w'a fè l': W'a pran nan dlo pou wete peche a, w'a voye l' sou yo. Apre sa, y'a koupe cheve ak pwal sou tout kò yo nèt, epi y'a lave rad ki sou yo. Se konsa y'a nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou mwen.
8 And they will take a young bull a young one of cattle and grain offering its fine flour mixed with oil and a young bull second a young one of cattle you will take to a sin offering.
Apre sa, moun Levi yo va pran yon jenn ti towo ansanm ak ofrann grenn jaden ki pou mache avè l' la, ki vle di ti gout farin frans melanje ak lwil. Ou menm, w'a pran yon dezyèm ti towo tou jenn pou ou touye pou repare sa yo fè ki mal.
9 And you will bring near the Levites before [the] tent of meeting and you will assemble all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel.
Apre sa, w'a fè moun Levi yo pwoche dèvan pòt Tant Randevou a, epi w'a fè tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo sanble.
10 And you will bring near the Levites before Yahweh and they will lay [the] people of Israel hands their on the Levites.
Y'a poze men yo sou tèt moun Levi yo.
11 And he will wave Aaron the Levites a wave-offering before Yahweh from with [the] people of Israel and they will be to serve [the] service of Yahweh.
Lèfini, Arawon va pran moun Levi yo, l'a vire yo adwat, l'a vire yo agoch devan mwen menm, Seyè a, tankou yon ofrann espesyal moun pèp Izrayèl yo ap fè m' pou moun Levi yo ka fè sèvis mwen.
12 And the Levites they will lay hands their on [the] head of the young bulls and offer the one a sin offering and the one a burnt offering to Yahweh to make atonement on the Levites.
Apre sa, moun Levi yo va poze men yo sou tèt ti towo bèf yo, w'a ofri yonn pou mande padon pou peche yo, w'a ofri lòt la pou yo boule nèt pou mwen. Se konsa y'a fè sèvis pou mande m' gras pou moun Levi yo.
13 And you will make stand the Levites before Aaron and before sons his and you will wave them a wave-offering to Yahweh.
Mete moun Levi yo apa tankou yon kado espesyal moun yo fè m'. Mete yo sou zòd Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo.
14 And you will separate the Levites from among [the] people of Israel and they will belong to me the Levites.
W'a wete moun Levi yo nan mitan rès pèp Izrayèl la, konsa moun Levi yo va pou mwen nèt ale.
15 And after thus they will go the Levites to serve [the] tent of meeting and you will purify them and you will wave them a wave-offering.
Lè w'a fin mete moun Levi yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou mwen, lè w'a fin vire yo adwat agoch devan m', tankou yon kado espesyal moun yo fè m', y'a gen dwa pwoche vin fè travay yo nan Tant Randevou a.
16 For [are] assigned assigned they to me from among [the] people of Israel in place of [the] firstborn of every womb [the] firstborn of all from [the] people of Israel I have taken them for myself.
N'a wete yo nan mitan rès pèp Izrayèl la, n'a fè m' kado yo nèt. Mwen va pran yo pou mwen nan plas tout premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
17 For [belongs] to me every firstborn among [the] people of Israel among humankind and among the livestock on [the] day struck I every firstborn in [the] land of Egypt I set apart them for myself.
Paske, tout premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo ak tout premye ti mal bèt yo fè se pou mwen yo ye. Depi jou mwen te touye tout premye pitit moun peyi Lejip yo, wi depi jou sa a mwen mete premye pitit nou yo apa pou mwen.
18 And I have taken the Levites in place of every firstborn among [the] people of Israel.
Koulye a, mwen pran moun Levi yo nan plas premye pitit moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
19 And I have given! the Levites given [things] - to Aaron and to sons his from among [the] people of Israel to serve [the] service of [the] people of Israel in [the] tent of meeting and to make atonement on [the] people of Israel and not it will be among [the] people of Israel a plague when draw near [the] people of Israel to the holy place.
Mwen pran moun Levi yo tankou yon kado moun yo fè m', mwen renmèt yo nan men Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo pou yo fè travay moun Izrayèl yo gen pou yo fè nan Tant Randevou a, pou mande Bondye gras pou pèp la. Konsa, okenn malè p'ap rive tonbe sou pèp la paske yo p'ap janm bezwen pwoche twò pre kote ki apa nèt pou mwen nan tanp lan.
20 And he did Moses and Aaron and all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel to the Levites according to all that he had commanded Yahweh Moses of the Levites so they did to them [the] people of Israel.
Se konsa, Moyiz, Arawon ak tout pèp Izrayèl la mete moun Levi yo apa nèt pou Seyè a, jan li te bay Moyiz lòd la. Wi, yo te fè tou sa pou yo te fè pou moun Levi yo.
21 And they purified themselves the Levites and they washed clothes their and he waved Aaron them a wave-offering before Yahweh and he made atonement on them Aaron to purify them.
Moun Levi yo fè sèvis pou peye pou tou sa yo te fè ki mal, yo lave rad ki sou yo. Arawon mete yo apa devan Seyè a, li vire yo adwat agoch devan Seyè a tankou yon kado espesyal pou Bondye, epi li fè sèvis pou mande gras pou yo te ka nan kondisyon sèvi Bondye.
22 And after thus they went the Levites to serve service their in [the] tent of meeting before Aaron and before sons his just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses on the Levites so they did to them.
Apre sa, moun Levi yo antre al fè travay yo nan Tant Randevou a sou lòd Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo. Se konsa pèp la te fè pou moun Levi yo tou sa Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd fè a.
23 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ankò, li di l' konsa:
24 This [is that] which [is] to the Levites from a son of five and twenty year[s] and up-wards he will go to serve service in [the] service of [the] tent of meeting.
-Sa mwen pral di ou la a, se pou moun Levi yo: Depi yo rive laj vennsenkan y'a fè pati gwoup moun k'ap travay nan Tant Randevou a.
25 And from a son of fifty year[s] he will turn back from [the] service of the service and not he will serve again.
Lè y'a gen senkantan, y'a pran retrèt yo, yo p'ap reskonsab okenn travay ankò nan tant lan.
26 And he will serve brothers his in [the] tent of meeting by keeping a duty and service not he will serve thus you will do to the Levites in duties their.
Men, y'a gen dwa ede moun Levi parèy yo nan nenpòt travay y'ap fè nan Tant Randevou a. Men yo menm poutèt pa yo, yo p'ap reskonsab okenn travay ankò. Se konsa w'a bay moun Levi yo travay pou yo fè.
