1 Istwa 15
1 David fè yo bati anpil kay pou li nan lavil David la. Li pare yon anplasman pou Bwat Kontra Bondye a, li moute yon gwo tant twal pou li.
And Dauid made him houses in the citie of Dauid, and prepared a place for the Arke of God, and pitched for it a tent.
2 Epi li di: -Se moun Levi yo ase ki pou pote Bwat Kontra Bondye a, paske se yo menm Seyè a te chwazi pou pote Bwat la, se yo li te chwazi pou sèvi l' pou tout tan.
Then Dauid saide, None ought to carie the Arke of God, but the Leuites: for the Lord hath chosen them to beare the Arke of the Lord, and to minister vnto him for euer.
3 Lèfini, li reyini tout pèp Izrayèl la lavil Jerizalèm pou yo pote Bwat Kontra a kote li te pare pou li a.
And Dauid gathered all Israel together to Ierusalem to bring vp the Arke of the Lord vnto his place, which he had ordeined for it.
4 Apre sa, li voye chache tout moun nan ras fanmi Arawon yo ansanm ak moun Levi yo.
And Dauid assembled the sonnes of Aaron, and the Leuites.
5 Nan branch fanmi Keyat la, te gen Ouryèl, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou sanven (120).
Of the sonnes of Kohath, Vriel the chiefe, and his brethren sixe score.
6 Nan branch fanmi Merari a, te gen Asaja, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou desanven (220).
Of the sonnes of Merari, Asaiah the chiefe, and his brethren two hundreth and twentie.
7 Nan branch fanmi Gèchon an, te gen Joèl, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou santrant (130).
Of the sonnes of Gershom, Ioel the chiefe, and his brethren an hundreth and thirtie.
8 Nan branch fanmi Elizafan an, te gen Semaja, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou desan (200).
Of the sonnes of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chiefe, and his brethren two hundreth.
9 Nan branch fanmi Ebwon an, te gen Eliyèl, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou katreven.
Of the sonnes of Hebron, Eliel the chiefe, and his brethren fourescore.
10 Nan branch fanmi Ouzyèl la te gen Aminadad, chèf la, ak tout fanmi l' yo. Sa te fè antou sandouz (112).
Of the sonnes of Vzziel, Amminadab the chiefe, and his brethren an hundreth and twelue.
11 David rele Zadòk ak Abyata, prèt yo, ansanm ak sis moun Levi: Ouryèl, Asaja, Joèl, Chemaja, Eliyèl ak Aminadad.
And Dauid called Zadok and Abiathar the Priestes, and of the Leuites, Vriel, Asaiah and Ioel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab:
12 Li di yo: -Se nou menm ki chèf branch fanmi Levi yo. Mete nou nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Bondye, nou menm ansanm ak tout moun nan fanmi nou, pou nou ka al pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, kote mwen fè pare pou li a.
And he saide vnto them, Ye are the chiefe fathers of the Leuites: sanctifie your selues, and your brethren, and bring vp the Arke of the Lord God of Israel vnto the place that I haue prepared for it.
13 Premye fwa a, nou pa t' la. Se poutèt sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te touye kèk nan nou paske nou pa t' fè l' jan nou te dwe fè l' la.
For because ye were not there at the first, the Lord our God made a breach among vs: for we sought him not after due order.
14 Se konsa, prèt yo ak moun Levi yo al mete yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye, pou yo te ka al pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
So the Priestes and the Leuites sanctified them selues to bring vp the Arke of the Lord God of Israel.
15 Yo mete Bwat la sou gwo travès long yo, yo leve l' mete l' sou zepòl yo, yo pote l' ale jan Moyiz te ba yo lòd fè l' la dapre pawòl Seyè a.
And the sonnes of the Leuites bare the Arke of God vpon their shoulders with the barres, as Moses had commanded, according to the worde of the Lord.
16 David bay chèf moun Levi yo lòd pou yo chwazi divès moun nan fanmi yo ki konn chante, pou yo vini ak enstriman mizik yo, gita, bandjo ak senbal, pou jwe mizik cho paske kè tout moun te kontan.
And Dauid spake to the chiefe of the Leuites, that they should appoint certaine of their brethren to sing with instruments of musike, with violes and harpes, and cymbales, that they might make a sounde, and lift vp their voyce with ioye.
17 Moun Levi yo chwazi Eyman, pitit gason Joèl la, ansanm ak Asaf, pitit gason Berekya, yon fanmi Eyman, ak Etan, pitit gason Kouchaja nan branch fanmi Merari a, fanmi ak de lòt premye yo.
So the Leuites appointed Heman the sonne of Ioel, and of his brethren Asaph the sonne of Berechiah, and of the sonnes of Merari their brethren, Ethan the sonne of Kushaiah,
18 Apre sa, yo chwazi lòt moun Levi nan menm fanmi ak premye yo, pou ede yo nan travay yo. Se te Zakari, Aziyèl, Semiramòt, Jekiyèl, Ouni, Eliyab, Benaja, Maseja, Matitya, Elifeleou, Mikneja, ak de gad pòtay tanp lan, Obèd-Edon ak Jeyèl.
And with them their brethren in the seconde degree, Zechariah, Ben, and Iaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Vnni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneah, and Obed Edom, and Ieiel the porters.
19 Eyman, Asaf ak Etan, sanba yo, te reskonsab pou bat senbal kwiv yo pou fè mizik.
So Heman, Asaph and Ethan were fingers to make a sounde with cymbales of brasse,
20 Zakari, Aziyèl, Semiramòt, Jekiyèl, Ouni, Eliyab, Maseja ak Benaja t'ap jwe premye gita yo.
And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Vnni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah with violes on Alamoth,
21 Matitya, Elifeleou, Mikneja, Obèd-Edon, Jeyèl ak Azazya t'ap jwe gita bas. Se yo ki pou te bay kadans chante yo.
And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneah, and Obed Edom, and Ieiel, and Azaziah, with harpes vpon Sheminith Ienazzeah.
22 Se Kenanya, chèf moun Levi ki te reskonsab pote Bwat la, ki t'ap dirije yo, paske li te fò nan fè travay konsa.
But Chenaniah the chiefe of the Leuites had the charge, bearing ye burden in the charge, for he was able to instruct.
23 Se Berekya ak Elkana ki t'ap pote Bwat Kontra a.
And Berechiah and Elkanah were porters for the Arke.
24 Men non prèt yo te chwazi pou kònen twonpèt devan Bwat Kontra a. Se te Chebanyas, Jozafa, Netaneyèl, Amasayi, Zakari, Benaja ak Elyezè. Obèd-Edon ak Jebija te la pou pote Bwat Kontra a tou.
And Shecaniah and Iehoshaphat and Nethaneel and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer the Priestes did blowe with trumpets before the Arke of God, and Obed Edom and Ieiiah were porters for the Arke.
25 Se konsa David ak tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo ansanm ak tout chèf rejiman mil sòlda yo ale lakay Obèd-Edon, yo pran Bwat Kontra a pou yo pote l' lavil Jerizalèm ak kè kontan.
So Dauid and the Elders of Israel and the captaines of thousandes went to bring vp the Arke of the couenant of the Lord from the house of Obed Edom with ioye.
26 Yo touye sèt towo ak sèt belye pou Bondye te ka ede moun Levi ki t'ap pote Bwat Kontra a.
And because that God helped the Leuites that bare the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, they offered seuen bullockes and seuen rammes.
27 David te gen yon rad fèt ak twal fin blan sou li, menm jan ak tout moun Levi yo ki t'ap mache devan Bwat Kontra a, sanba yo ak Kenaja ki t'ap dirije travay transpò a. David te gen yon moso twal fin blan tou mare nan ren li.
And Dauid had on him a linen garment, as all the Leuites that bare the Arke, and the singers and Chenaniah that had the chiefe charge of the singers: and vpon Dauid was a linnen Ephod.
28 Se konsa, tout pèp Izrayèl la ale ansanm ak Bwat Kontra Seyè a, yo pote l' lavil Jerizalèm. Yo t'ap rele, yo t'ap fè fèt. Yo t'ap jwe klewon, twonpèt, senbal, gita ak bandjo sou tout wout la.
Thus all Israel brought vp the Arke of the Lordes couenant with shouting and sounde of cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbales, making a sound with violes and with harpes.
29 Antan yo t'ap antre ak Bwat Kontra a lavil Jerizalèm, Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, te kanpe bò yon fennèt ap gade. Li wè David ki t'ap danse fè laviwonn devan Bwat la. Li vin pa gen yon san pou li ankò.
And when the Arke of the couenant of the Lord came into the citie of Dauid, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at a windowe, and sawe King Dauid dauncing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
