Numbers 18
1 And the LORD said to Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy father's house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary: and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te di a Aaron: “Ou menm avèk fis ou yo avèk lakay zansèt ou va pote inikite la pou zafè sanktyè a, e nou menm avèk fis nou yo va pote inikite la kon prèt.
2 And thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring thou with thee, that they may be joined to thee, and minister to thee: but thou and thy sons with thee [shall minister] before the tabernacle of witness.
Mennen avè w osi frè nou yo, tribi Levi a, tribi papa zansèt ou a, pou yo kapab vin jwenn avèk ou e sèvi ou, pandan ou menm avèk fis ou yo devan tant temwayaj la.
3 And they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle: only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary and the altar, that neither they, nor ye also, die.
Yo va kenbe lòd ou avèk devwa tout asanble a, men yo p ap pwoche veso sanktyè yo avèk lotèl la, pou yo pa mouri; ni yo, ni ou menm.
4 And they shall be joined to thee, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, for all the service of the tabernacle: and a stranger shall not come nigh to you.
Yo va vin jwenn avèk ou, e fè devwa a tant asanble a pou tout sèvis tant lan. Men yon etranje pa pou pwoche prè nou.
5 And ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar: that there be no wrath any more upon the children of Israel.
“Konsa nou va fè tout devwa a sanktyè a ak devwa a lotèl la, pou pa toujou gen kòlè sou fis Israël yo.
6 And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel: to you [they are] given [as] a gift for the LORD, to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Veye byen, se Mwen Menm ki te pran Levit parèy nou yo pami fis Israël yo. Yo se yon don pou nou menm, ki dedye bay SENYÈ a, pou fè sèvis tant asanble a.
7 Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest's office for every thing of the altar, and within the vail; and ye shall serve: I have given your priest's office [to you as] a service of gift: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
Men ou menm ak fis ou yo ap ranpli pozisyon prèt pou tout bagsay ki konsène otèl la, ak andedann vwal la. Ou va fè sèvis yo. Mwen ap bay ou pozisyon prèt kon yon pozisyon donnen. Men okenn lòt ki pwoche va mete a lanmò.”
8 And the LORD spoke to Aaron, Behold, I also have given thee the charge of my heave-offerings of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel; to thee have I given them by reason of the anointing, and to thy sons, by an ordinance for ever.
Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Aaron: “Gade byen, se Mwen Menm ki te bay ou chaj sou tout ofrann Mwen yo, menm tout don sen a fis Israël yo. Mwen te bay ou yo akoz onksyon an nou resevwa, e a fis ou yo kòm yon dwa ki pou tout tan.
9 This shall be thine of the most holy things [reserved] from the fire: every oblation of theirs, every meat-offering of theirs, and every sin-offering of theirs, and every trespass-offering of theirs, which they shall render to me, [shall be] most holy for thee and for thy sons.
Sila a va pou nou, soti nan don pi sen pase tout lòt yo ki rezève soti nan dife a; tout ofrann pa yo, menm tout ofrann pa yo, tout ofrann sereyal, tout ofrann peche ak tout ofrann koupab ke yo rann ban Mwen yo, yo va sen pase tout lòt yo pou nou ak fis nou yo.
10 In the most holy [place] shalt thou eat it; every male shall eat it: it shall be holy to thee.
Kòm don ki sen pase tout lòt yo, nou va manje l. Tout gason va manje li. Li va sen pou nou menm.
11 And this [is] thine; the heave-offering of their gift, with all the wave-offerings of the children of Israel: I have given them to thee, and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: every one that is clean in thy house shall eat of it.
“Sa osi se pou nou, ofrann a don pa yo, menm tout ofrann balanse vè lotèl a fis Israël yo; Mwen te bannou yo ak fis nou yo ak fi nou yo ki avèk nou, kòm yon dwa ki pou tout tan. Tout sila lakay nou yo ki pwòp, kapab manje yo.
12 All the best of the oil, and all the best of the wine, and of the wheat, the first-fruits of them which they shall offer to the LORD, them have I given to thee.
“Tout sa ki pi bon nan lwil fre a, tout sa ki pi bon nan diven fre a ak nan sereyal la, premye fwi a sila ke yo bay a SENYÈ a, Mwen bannou yo.
13 [And] whatever is first ripe in the land, which they shall bring to the LORD, shall be thine; every one that is clean in thy house shall eat [of] it.
Premye nan fwi mi ki nan peyi yo, ke yo pote bay SENYÈ a, va pou ou. Tout moun lakay ou ki pwòp, kapab manje li.
14 Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine.
“Tout bagay ki konsakre an Israël va pou ou.
15 Every thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh, which they bring to the LORD, [whether] of men or beast, shall be thine: nevertheless, the first born of man shalt thou surely redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts shalt thou redeem.
Tout premye pòtre nan vant a tout chè, kit se lòm, kit se bèt, ke yo ofri bay SENYÈ a, va pou nou. Men premye ne a lòm nan, nou va anverite peye ranson, e premye ne bèt ki pa pwòp, nou va peye ranson.
16 And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shalt thou redeem, according to thy estimation, for the money of five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, which [is] twenty gerahs.
Epi pou pri ranson an, soti nan laj yon mwa, nou va peye ranson yo, selon pri nou yo, senk sik an ajan, selon sik sanktyè a, ki se ven gera.
17 But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou shalt not redeem; they [are] holy: thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar, and shalt burn their fat [for] an offering made by fire, for a sweet savor to the LORD.
“Men premye ne a yon bèf oswa yon mouton, oswa premye ne a yon kabrit, ou pa pou peye ranson. Yo sen. Ou va flite san pa yo sou lotèl la, e ou va ofri grès yo nan lafimen kòm yon ofrann pa dife, kòm yon odè ki bon a SENYÈ a.
18 And the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave-breast and as the right shoulder are thine
Vyann pa yo va pou ou. Li va pou ou tankou pwatrin ak kwis nan yon ofrann balanse anlè.
19 All the heave-offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer to the LORD, have I given to thee, and to thy sons and thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: it [is] a covenant of salt for ever before the LORD to thee and to thy seed with thee.
Tout ofrann a don sen yo, ke fis Israël yo ofri bay SENYÈ a, Mwen te bannou yo, avèk fis ou yo ak fi ou yo ki avèk ou, kòm yon dwa ki pou tout tan. Li se yon kontra disèl devan SENYÈ a avèk ou avèk desandan ou yo avèk ou.”
20 And the LORD spoke to Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any part among them: I [am] thy part and thy inheritance among the children of Israel.
SENYÈ a te di a Aaron: “Ou p ap gen okenn eritaj nan peyi a ni posesyon okenn pati pami yo. Mwen se pati pa ou ak eritaj ou pami fis Israël yo.
21 And behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve, [even] the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
“A fis Levi yo, gade byen, Mwen te bay tout dim an Israël yo kòm eritaj, anretou pou sèvis yo ke yo fè, sèvis a tant asanble a.
22 Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin, and die.
Fis a Israël pa pou pwoche tant asanble a ankò; sinon, yo va pote peche e yo va mouri.
23 But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they shall bear their iniquity: [It shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations, that among the children of Israel they have no inheritance.
Sèl Levit yo va fè sèvis tant asanble a. Yo va pote inikite pa yo. Sa va yon règleman pou tout tan atravè jenerasyon nou yo. Pami fis Israël yo, yo p ap gen okenn eritaj.
24 But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer [as] a heave-offering to the LORD, I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said to them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.
Paske dim a fis Israël yo, ke yo ofri kòm yon ofrann bay SENYÈ a, Mwen te bay a Levit yo kòm eritaj. Konsa, Mwen te di konsènan yo: ‘Yo p ap gen okenn eritaj pami fis Israël yo.’”
25 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
SENYÈ a te pale a Moïse. Li te di:
26 Thus speak to the Levites, and say to them, When ye take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then ye shall offer up a heave-offering of it for the LORD, [even] a tenth [part] of the tithe.
“Anplis, ou va pale avèk Levit yo pou di yo: ‘Lè nou pran soti nan fis Israël yo, dim ke Mwen te bay a nou menm pou eritaj nou, alò nou va prezante yon ofrann ki sòti nan li bay SENYÈ a, yon dim nan dim nan.
27 And [this] your heave-offering shall be reckoned to you, as though [it were] the corn of the threshing-floor, and as the fullness of the wine-press.
Ofrann nou va konte pou nou kòm sila ki sòti nan voye anlè glasi a, oswa pwodwi ki nan basen diven an.
28 Thus ye also shall offer a heave-offering to the LORD of all your tithes which ye receive of the children of Israel; and ye shall give of them the LORD'S heave-offering to Aaron the priest.
Konsa, nou va, osi, prezante yon ofrann bay SENYÈ a, ki soti nan dim nou yo, ke nou resevwa de fis Israël yo. Epi soti nan li, nou va bay ofrann SENYÈ a a Aaron, prèt la.
29 Out of all your gifts ye shall offer every heave-offering of the LORD, of all the best of it, [even] its hallowed part out of it.
Nan tout don nou yo, nou va prezante tout ofrann ke nou dwe bay a SENYÈ a, soti nan tout sa ki pi bon nan yo, pati ki sakre nan yo.’
30 Therefore thou shalt say to them, When ye have heaved from it the best of it, then it shall be counted to the Levites as the increase of the threshing-floor, and as the increase of the wine-press.
“Ou va di yo: ‘Lè nou ofri meyè pati a, li va kalkile a Levit yo kòm pwodwi a ofrann voye anlè glasi a, oswa pwodwi a basen diven an.
31 And ye shall eat it in every place, ye and your households: for it [is] your reward for your service in the tabernacle of the congregation.
Nou gen dwa manje l nenpòt kote, nou menm avèk lakay nou, paske se pèyman nou an echanj pou sèvis nou nan tant asanble a.
32 And ye shall bear no sin by reason of it, when ye have heaved from it the best of it: neither shall ye pollute the holy things of the children of Israel, lest ye die.
Nou p ap pote peche akoz li, lè nou fin ofri meyè pati a. Men nou pa pou degrade bagay sakre a fis Israël yo; sinon, nou va mouri.’”
