Egzòd 31
1 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l':
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 -Mwen chwazi Bezaleyèl, pitit Ouri, pitit pitit Our, nan branch fanmi Jida a.
“Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah,
3 Mwen mete lespri m' sou li an kantite pou l' ka gen ladrès, bon konprann ak konesans pou l' fè tout kalite travay atizan yo konn fè,
and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge in every craft,
4 pou l' ka fè bèl desen, pou l' travay yo an lò, an ajan ak an kwiv,
in order to design whatever must be fabricated from gold, and silver, and brass,
5 pou l' travay pyè tankou òfèv yo konn fè a, pou l' moute yo sou nenpòt bagay, pou l' ka fè desen sou bwa, wi pou l' fè tout kalite bon bagay atizan konn fè.
from marble, and precious stones, and various woods.
6 Nan travay sa a, mwen bay Bezaleyèl yon lòt bòs pou ede l' nan travay la: se Owoliyab, pitit Ayisamak, moun branch fanmi Dann. Konsa tou, tout lòt moun nan pèp Izrayèl la n'a wè ki gen ladrès, konnen se mwen menm ki ba yo l' pou yo ka fè sa mwen mande ou fè a.
And I have given to him, as his associate, Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, from the tribe of Dan. And I have placed wisdom in the heart of every artisan, so that they may make everything as I have instructed you:
7 Men sa mwen te mande ou fè: Tant Randevou a, Bwat Kontra a avèk ròch plat yo, kouvèti ki pou ale sou bwat la ansanm ak tout mèb ki pou ale nan tant lan,
the tabernacle of the covenant, and the ark of the testimony, and the propitiatory which is over it, and all the vessels of the tabernacle,
8 tab la ak lanp sèt branch an lò a ansanm avèk tout bagay ki pou sèvi avèk yo, lòtèl pou boule lansan an,
and the table and its vessels, the most pure lampstand with its vessels, and the altars of incense
9 lòtèl pou boule ofrann yo ak tout bagay ki pou sèvi sou lòtèl la, basen lan ak tout pye l' a,
and of holocaust and all their vessels, the washtub with its base,
10 bèl rad seremoni, rad pou Arawon, prèt la, ak pou pitit gason l' yo mete sou yo lè y'ap fè sèvis nan tant lan,
the holy vestments for the ministry of Aaron the priest, and for his sons, so that they may execute their office of sacred rites,
11 lwil pou mete moun apa pou Bondye a ak lansan santi bon pou kote ki apa pou Bondye a. Lè y'ap fè bagay sa yo, se pou yo fè l' jan mwen te di ou la.
the oil of unction, and the incense of aromatics in the Sanctuary. All the things that I have instructed you, they shall make.”
12 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
13 -W'a di pèp Izrayèl la: Se pou nou respekte jou repo mwen yo, paske se va yon siy ant mwen menm ak nou menm, ak tout pitit pitit nou yo, pou fè konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki mete nou apa pou mwen.
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: See that you keep my Sabbath. For it is a sign between me and you among your generations, so that you may know that I am the Lord, who sanctifies you.
14 Se poutèt sa, se pou nou respekte jou repo a paske se yon jou pou nou mete apa pou mwen. Si yon moun pa respekte jou sa a, se pou yo touye l'. Si yon moun fè nenpòt ki travay jou sa a, se pou yo disparèt li nan mitan pèp li a.
Keep my Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Whoever will have polluted it, shall die a death. Whoever will have done any work in it, his soul shall perish from the midst of his people.
15 N'a fè tout travay nou pandan sis jou. Men setyèm jou a, se va yon gwo jou repo, jou n'a mete apa pou Seyè a. Nenpòt moun ki fè nenpòt ki travay jou sa a, se pou yo touye l'.
For six days you shall do work. On the seventh day, it is the Sabbath, a rest sanctified by the Lord. All who will have done work on this day shall die.
16 Se tout pèp la nèt ki pou respekte jou repo a de pitit an pitit. Se yon kontra ki la pou tout tan.
Let the sons of Israel keep the Sabbath, and let them celebrate it throughout their generations. It is an everlasting covenant
17 Sa va yon siy ant mwen menm ak pèp Izrayèl la, paske mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen te pran sis jou pou m' fè syèl la ak latè a. Sou setyèm jou a mwen te sispann travay, mwen te pran repo.
between me and the sons of Israel, and a perpetual sign. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and in the seventh he ceased from work.”
18 Lè Seyè a te fin pale konsa ak Moyiz sou mòn Sinayi a, li ba li de ròch plat kote li te ekri kontra a ak pròp men li.
And the Lord, having completed speaking in this way on Mount Sinai, gave to Moses two stone tablets of testimony, written with the finger of God.
