< 1 Chronicles 28 >
1 And David assembleth all the heads of Israel, heads of the tribes, and heads of the courses who are serving the king, and heads of the thousands, and heads of the hundreds, and heads of all the substance and possessions of the king, and of his sons, with the officers and the mighty ones, even to every mighty one of valour — unto Jerusalem.
David mande pou tout otorite peyi Izrayèl la reyini lavil Jerizalèm. Se konsa tout chèf branch fanmi yo, tout chèf gwoup ki te reskonsab dirije peyi a pou wa a, tout kòmandan rejiman mil sòlda yo ak kòmandan divizyon san sòlda yo, jeran tout tè ak gadò tout bèt ki pou wa a ak pou pitit li yo, moun konfyans li yo, chèf lame li yo ak tout vanyan sòlda li yo, yo tout reyini lavil Jerizalèm.
2 And David the king riseth on his feet, and saith, 'Hear me, my brethren and my people, I — with my heart — to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and for the footstool of our God, and I prepared to build,
David kanpe devan yo tout, li di yo konsa: -Frè m' yo ak nou tout moun nan pèp mwen an, koute sa m'ap di nou. Mwen te fè lide bati yon kay kote pou Bwat Kontra Seyè a rete, yon kay kote Seyè a ka mete fotèy li. Mwen te pare tout bagay pou bati kay la.
3 and God hath said to me, Thou dost not build a house to My name, for a man of wars thou [art], and blood thou hast shed.
Men, Bondye te fè m' konnen mwen p'ap ka bati kay la pou li paske se sòlda mwen ye, mwen fè twòp san koule.
4 'And Jehovah, God of Israel, doth fix on me out of all the house of my father to be for king over Israel to the age, for on Judah He hath fixed for a leader, and in the house of Judah, the house of my father, and among the sons of my father, on me, [me] He hath been pleased to make king over all Israel;
Men se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye Izrayèl la, te chwazi nan mitan tout fanmi m' yo pou fè m' wa peyi Izrayèl la pou tout tan. Li te chwazi branch fanmi Jida a pou pran kòmandman peyi a. Nan branch fanmi Jida a, li chwazi fanmi papa m'. Nan fanmi papa m', sa te fè l' plezi pou l' chwazi m' pou l' mete m' wa sou tout peyi Izrayèl la.
5 and out of all my sons — for many sons hath Jehovah given to me — He also fixeth on Solomon my son, to sit on the throne of the kingdom of Jehovah over Israel,
Koulye a, Seyè a te ban mwen anpil pitit. Men, nan tout pitit sa yo li chwazi Salomon pou chita sou fotèy la pou gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la ak pouvwa l'ap ba li.
6 and saith to me, Solomon thy son, he doth build My house, and My courts, for I have fixed on him to Me for a son, and I — I am to him for a father,
Seyè a te di m' tou: Se Salomon, pitit gason ou lan, ki va bati kay mwen an ak tout lakou yo. Se li menm mwen chwazi pou pitit mwen. M'a yon papa pou li.
7 and I have established his kingdom to the age, if he is strong to do My commands, and My judgments, as at this day.
M'ap fè gouvènman l' lan kanpe fèm pou tout tan, depi li menm li toujou kenbe lòd mwen, depi li toujou mache dapre kòmandman m' yo jan l'ap fè l' jòdi a.
8 'And now, before the eyes of all Israel, the assembly of Jehovah, and in the ears of our God, keep and seek all the commands of Jehovah your God, so that ye possess this good land, and have caused your sons to inherit after you unto the age.
Koulye a, devan tout pèp Izrayèl la, pèp Bondye a ki sanble isit la, ak devan Bondye nou k'ap koute nou an, mwen mande pou nou kenbe tout kòmandman Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ban nou pou bèl peyi nou sa a toujou rete pou nou. Konsa, nou ka kite l' pou pitit nou yo jouk sa kaba.
9 'And thou, Solomon, my son, know the God of thy father, and serve Him with a perfect heart, and with a willing mind, for all hearts is Jehovah seeking, and every imagination of the thoughts He is understanding; if thou dost seek Him, He is found of thee, and if thou dost forsake Him, He casteth thee off for ever.
Ou menm, Salomon, pitit mwen, se pou ou rekonèt Bondye papa ou la. Se pou ou sèvi l' ak tout kè ou, avèk bon santiman, paske Seyè a sonde kè tout moun, li konnen tou sa k'ap pase nan tèt yo. Konsa, si ou chache l', l'ap kite ou jwenn li. Men, si ou vire do ba li, l'ap lage ou nèt tou pou tout tan.
10 See, now, for Jehovah hath fixed on thee to build a house for a sanctuary; be strong, and do.'
Se pou ou rekonèt se Seyè a menm ki chwazi ou pou bati yon kay pou mete apa pou li. Mete gason sou ou! Antre nan travay!
11 And David giveth to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of its houses, and of its treasures, and of its upper chambers, and of its innermost chambers, and of the house of the atonement;
Apre sa, David bay Salomon plan tout kay tanp lan, plan tout chanm ak tout depo yo, plan tout lòt chanm sou anwo yo, chanm anndan yo ak plan gwo chanm yo mete apa pou Bondye a, kote yo fè sèvis pou mande padon pou peche yo.
12 and the pattern of all that hath been by the Spirit with him, for the courts of the house of Jehovah, and for all the chambers round about, for the treasures of the house of God, and for the treasures of the things sacrificed;
Li ba li plan tout bagay li te gen nan tèt li pou lakou tanp yo, pou tout chanm ki bay sou lakou yo, pou depo veso yo sèvi nan tanp lan ak pou depo bagay yo ofri pou mete apa pou Seyè a.
13 and for the courses of the priests and of the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of Jehovah, and for all vessels of service of the house of Jehovah,
David te ba li tou jan pou li òganize prèt yo ak moun Levi yo pou yo fè travay yo, jan pou yo fè tout sèvis nan kay Seyè a, ak jan pou yo okipe tout veso Tanp lan.
14 even gold by weight, for [things of] gold, for all instruments of service and service; for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of service and service;
Li di li konbe ajan ak lò la bezwen pou fè veso yo,
15 and [by] weight for the candlesticks of gold, and their lamps of gold, by weight [for] candlestick and candlestick, and its lamps; and for the candlesticks of silver, by weight for a candlestick and its lamps, according to the service of candlestick and candlestick;
pou chak lanp, pou chak gwo lanp sèt branch an ajan osinon an lò ak pèz yo chak dwe genyen dapre sèvis yo,
16 and the gold [by] weight for tables of the arrangement, for table and table, and silver for the tables of silver;
pou chak tab an ajan osinon an lò kote pou yo ranje pen yo mete apa pou Seyè a.
17 and the forks, and the bowls, and the cups of pure gold, and for the basins of gold, by weight for basin and basin, and for the basins of silver, by weight for basin and basin,
Li di li konbe lò l'a bezwen pou fè fouchèt yo, bòl yo, gwo gode yo, ak modèl lòt veso an ajan osinon an lò dapre pèz yo chak.
18 and for the altar of perfume refined gold by weight, and for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubs of gold — spreading and covering over the ark of the covenant of Jehovah.
Li di l' konbe bon lò l'ap bezwen pou fè lotèl lansan an, ak lò pou fè kabwa a, pou pòtre zanj cheriben yo ak zèl yo louvri sou Bwat Kontra Seyè a.
19 The whole [is] in writing from the hand of Jehovah, 'He caused me to understand all the work of the pattern,' [said David.]
David di li: -Tout plan travay la ekri an detay nan yon liv dapre lòd Seyè a menm te ban mwen. Li esplike m' tou sa pou m' fè.
20 And David saith to Solomon his son, 'Be strong, and courageous, and do; do not fear nor be affrighted, for Jehovah God, my God, [is] with thee; He doth not fail thee, nor forsake thee, unto the completion of all the work of the service of the house of Jehovah.
Apre sa, wa David di Salomon, pitit li a: -Mete gason sou ou! Pran kouraj, pitit mwen! Fè sa ou gen pou fè a! Pa kite anyen fè ou pè, paske Seyè a, Bondye mwen an, kanpe la avè ou, jouk tout travay pou sèvis Tanp lan fini.
21 'And lo, courses of the priests and of the Levites [are] for all the service of the house of God; and with thee in all work [is] every willing one with wisdom, for every service; and the heads and all the people [are] according to all thy words.'
Gwoup prèt yo ak gwoup moun Levi yo deja resevwa travay pou yo fè nan Tanp lan. Pou tout lòt travay yo, ou gen avè ou ouvriye ki vle ede ou, lèfini ki gen ladrès nan tout kalite djòb. Chèf yo ak tout pèp la ap tann lòd ou pou tout bagay fèt.
