Numbers 8
1 And the Lord spak to Moises, and seide, Speke thou to Aaron,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
2 and thou schalt seie to hym, Whanne thou hast sett seuene launternes, the candilstike be reisid in the south part; therfor comaunde thou this, that the lanternes biholde euene ayens the north to the boord of looues of `settyng forth, tho schulen schyne ayenus that part which the candilstike biholdith.
-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 Aaron dide, and puttide lanternes on the candilstike, as the Lord comaundide to Moises.
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 Sotheli this was the makyng of the candilstike; it was of gold betun out with hameris, as wel the myddil stok as alle thingis that camen forth of euer eithir side of the yeerdis; bi the saumple `whych the Lord schewide to Moises, so he wrouyte the candilstike.
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 the Lord spak to Moises,
Seyè a pale ak Mwiz, li di l' konsa:
6 and seide, Take thou Leuytis fro the myddis of the sones of Israel;
-Wete moun Levi yo nan mitan rès pèp Izrayèl la. Mete yo nan kondisyon pou yo ka fè sèvis pou mwen.
7 and thou schalt clense hem bi this custom. Be thei spreynt with watir of clensyng, and schaue thei alle the heeris of her fleisch. And whanne thei han waische her clothis and ben clensid, take thei an oxe of drooues,
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 the fletyng sacrifice therof, flour spreynt to gidere with oile; forsothe thou schalt take another oxe of the drooue for synne;
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 thou schalt present the Leuytis bifor the tabernacle of boond of pees, whanne al the multitude of the sones of Israel is clepid togidere.
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 whanne the Leuytis ben bifor the Lord, the sones of Israel schulen sette her hondis on hem;
Y'a poze men yo sou tèt moun Levi yo.
11 and Aaron schal offre the Leuytis in the siyt of the Lord, a yifte of the sones of Israel, that thei serue in the seruice `of hym.
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 Also the Leuytis schulen sette her hondis on the heedis of the oxun, of whiche oxun thou schalt make oon for synne, and the tother in to brent sacrifice of the Lord, that thou preye for hem.
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 thou schalt ordeyne the Leuytis in the siyt of Aaron, and of hise sones, and thou schalt sacre hem offrid to the Lord;
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 thou schalt departe hem fro the myddis of the sones of Israel, that thei be myne.
W'a wete moun Levi yo nan mitan rès pèp Izrayèl la, konsa moun Levi yo va pou mwen nèt ale.
15 And aftirward entre thei in to the tabernacle of boond of pees, that thei serue me; and so thou schalt clense and schalt halewe hem, in to an offryng of the Lord, for bi fre yifte thei ben youun to me of the sones of Israel.
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 Y haue take hem for the firste gendrid thingis that openen ech wombe in Israel;
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 alle the firste gendrid thingis of the sones of Israel ben myne, as wel of men as of beestis, fro the dai in which Y smoot ech firste gendrid thing in the loond of Egipt, Y halewide hem to me.
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 Y took the Leuytis for alle the firste gendrid children of the sones of Israel;
Koulye a, mwen pran moun Levi yo nan plas premye pitit moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
19 and Y yaf hem bi fre yifte to Aaron and hise sones, fro the myddis of the puple, that thei serue me for Israel, in the tabernacle of boond of pees, and that thei preie for hem, lest veniaunce be in the puple, if thei ben hardi to neiye to the seyntuarye.
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 Moises and Aaron, and al the multitude of the sones of Israel, diden on the Leuitis tho thingis that the Lord comaundide to Moyses.
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 thei weren clensid, and thei waischiden her clothis; and Aaron reiside hem in the siyt of the Lord, and preiede for hem,
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 that thei schulen be clensid, and schulden entre to her offices in to the tabernacle of boond of pees, bifor Aaron and hise sones; as the Lord comaundide to Moises of the Leuytis, so it was don.
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 the Lord spak to Moises, and seide, This is lawe of Leuytis;
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ankò, li di l' konsa:
24 fro fyue and twentithe yeer and aboue thei schulen entre, for to mynystre in the tabernacle of boond of pees;
-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 whanne thei han fillid the fiftithe yeer of age, thei schulen ceesse to serue.
Lè y'a gen senkantan, y'a pran retrèt yo, yo p'ap reskonsab okenn travay ankò nan tant lan.
26 And thei schulen be the mynystris of her bretheren in the tabernacle of boond of pees, that thei kepe tho thingis that ben bitakun to hem; sothely thei schulen not do tho werkis; thus thou schalt dispose Leuytis in her kepyngis.
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.
