1 Chronicles 28
1 David assembled all the officials of Israel at Jerusalem: the officials of the tribes, the officers of the divisions that served the king in their scheduled work, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, the managers over all the property and possessions of the king and of his sons, and the officers and fighting men, including the most skilled of them.
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 rose to his feet and said, “Listen to me, my brothers and my people. It was my intention to build a temple for the ark of the covenant of Yahweh; a footstool for our God, and I have made preparations to build it.
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 will not build a temple 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 Yet Yahweh, the God of Israel, chose me from all my father's family to be king over Israel forever. He has chosen the tribe of Judah as leader. In the tribe of Judah, and in my father's household, out of all my father's sons, he chose me to be 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 From the many sons whom Yahweh has given me, he chose Solomon, my son, to sit on the throne of the kingdom of Yahweh, 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 will build my house and my courtyards, 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 remains committed to obey my commandments and decrees, as you are 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 then, in the sight of all Israel, this assembly for Yahweh, and in the presence of our God, all of you must keep and try to carry out all the commandments of Yahweh your God. Do this so that you may possess this good land and leave it as 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 As for you, Solomon my son, obey the God of your father, and serve him with your whole heart and a willing spirit. Do this because Yahweh searches all hearts and understands every motivation of everyone's thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you, but if you abandon him, he will reject you permanently.
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 Realize that Yahweh has chosen you to build this temple as his 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 plans for the temple portico, the temple buildings, the storerooms, the upper rooms, the inner rooms, and the room with the atonement lid.
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 He gave him the plans he had drawn for the courtyards of Yahweh's house, all the surrounding rooms, the storerooms in God's house, and the treasuries for the things that belong to Yahweh.
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 He gave him regulations for the divisions of the priests and Levites, for the assigned responsibilities for the service of the house of Yahweh, and for all the objects for the service in Yahweh's house.
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 He determined the weight of all the gold vessels for each service, the weight of silver vessels for each 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 the weight of the gold for all the gold articles, to be lampstands and gold lamps, the weight of gold for each lampstand, the weight of silver for each silver lampstand, according to the use of each lampstand in the service.
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 He gave the weight of the gold for the tables of the bread of the presence, for every table, and the weight of the silver for the silver tables.
Rhungkung caboei dongkah caboei neh caboei ham sui khaw a khiing neh, cak caboei dongkah ham cak khaw a khueh.
17 He gave the weight of pure gold for the meat forks, basins, and cups. He gave the weight for each of the gold bowls, and the weight of each of the silver bowls.
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 He gave the weight of refined gold for the incense altar, and of the gold for the design of the cherubim that spread out their wings and covered the ark of the covenant of Yahweh.
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 David said, “I have put all this in writing as Yahweh directed me and gave me to understand regarding the design.”
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 brave. Do the work. Do not be afraid or anxious, for Yahweh God, my God, is with you. He will not leave you nor abandon you until all the work for the service of Yahweh's temple 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 See, here are the divisions of the priests and Levites for all the service in God's temple. They will be with you, together with all willing and skillful men, to assist you in the work and to perform the service. The officials and all the people are ready to follow your commands.”
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.
