< Resansman 4 >

1 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo konsa:
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
2 -Fè resansman tout pitit gason moun Keyat yo, nan branch fanmi Levi a, dapre fanmi yo, dapre branch fanmi zansèt yo.
“Take a total of the sons of Kohath from the midst of the Levites, by their houses and families,
3 Pran non tout gason, depi sa ki gen trantan jouk sa ki gen senkantan, tou sa ki gen laj pou fè travay ki gen pou fèt nan Tant Randevou a.
from thirty years and above, even to the fiftieth year, of all who enter so as to stand and minister in the tabernacle of the covenant.
4 Men travay pitit gason Keyat yo va fè nan Tant Randevou a, kote yo mete apa nèt pou Seyè a.
This is the service of the sons of Kohath: the tabernacle of the covenant and the Holy of holies.
5 Lè lè a rive pou pèp la ranmase zafè yo pou yo deplase, Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo va antre nan kay Bondye a, y'a desann rido ki devan Bwat Kontra a, y'a kouvri bwat la ak li.
Aaron and his sons shall enter, when the camp is going to move, and they shall take down the veil, which hangs before the entrance, and they shall wrap the ark of the testimony in it,
6 Y'a mete yon premye gwo nap an po bazann sou li, epi y'a kouvri l' ak yon dezyèm nap an twal ble. Apre sa, y'a pase manch pou pote bwat la nan gwo bag yo.
and they shall cover it further with a veil of violet skins, and they shall extend over it a cloth made entirely of hyacinth, and they shall draw in the bars.
7 Y'a kouvri tab pou pen yo ofri bay Bondye a ak yon dra ble. Y'a mete asyèt, tas, kafetyè ak bòl yo sèvi nan sèvis pou mwen yo sou li. Pen yo ofri bay Seyè a va toujou rete sou li tou.
Likewise, they shall wrap the table of the presence in a cloth of hyacinth, and they shall place with it the censers and little mortars, the cups and bowls for pouring out libations; the bread shall be always on it.
8 Y'a voye yon dra wouj sou li, y'a kouvri tout ak yon nap fèt ak po bazann, epi y'a pase manch pou pote tab la nan gwo bag yo.
And they shall extend over it a cloth of scarlet, which they shall further cover with a veil of violet skins, and they shall draw in the bars.
9 Y'a pran yon dra tou ble, y'a kouvri gwo lanp sèt branch lan ak tout ti lanp li yo, pensèt li yo, plat li yo ak veso pou lwil yo.
They shall take also a cloth of hyacinth, with which they shall cover the lampstand with the lamps, and its tongs, and the candle snuffers, and all the vessels of oil, which are necessary for the preparation of the lamps.
10 Y'a vlope yo ansanm nan yon nap an po bazann, epi y'a mete l' sou yon branka pou pote l'.
And over all this they shall place a covering of violet skins, and they shall draw in the bars.
11 Apre sa, y'a mete yon dra ble sou lotèl an lò a, y'a kouvri l' nèt ak yon nap an po bazann, epi y'a pase manch pou pote lotèl la nan bag yo.
And certainly they shall wrap the golden altar in a hyacinth garment, and they shall extend over it a covering of violet skins, and they shall draw in the bars.
12 Y'a pran tout bagay yo sèvi nan kote ki apa nèt pou Seyè a, y'a mete yo nan yon dra ble, y'a vlope yo nan yon nap an po bazann, epi y'a mete yo sou yon branka pou pote yo.
All the vessels with which they minister in the Sanctuary they shall wrap in a cloth of hyacinth, and they shall extend over it a covering of violet skins, and they shall draw in the bars.
13 Y'a wete sann ki sou lotèl la, epi y'a kouvri lotèl la ak yon dra wouj.
Moreover, they shall cleanse the altar of ashes, and they shall wrap it in a purple garment,
14 Y'a pran tout bagay ki mache ak lotèl la: recho, pèl, fouchèt, plat pou resevwa sann, y'a mete yo sou lotèl la. Apre sa, y'a kouvri l' ak yon nap an po bazann, epi y'a pase manch pou pote lotèl la.
and they shall place it with all the vessels which they use in its ministry, that is, receptacles for fire, small hooks as well as forks, larger hooks and shovels. They shall cover all the vessels of the altar together with a veil of violet skins, and they shall draw in the bars.
15 Lè lè a va rive pou pèp la leve lamach, lè Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo va fin kouvri tout mèb ki nan kote ki apa nèt pou Seyè a, ansanm ak tout bagay ki mache ak yo a, se lè sa a gason moun Keyat yo va vin pran mèb yo pou pote yo. Moun Keyat yo pa gen dwa manyen bagay yo mete apa nèt pou Seyè a. Si yo fè sa, y'ap mouri. Se tout reskonsablite moun Keyat yo sa, lè y'ap deplase Tant Randevou a.
And when Aaron and his sons have wrapped the Sanctuary and its vessels at the dismantling of the camp, then the sons of Kohath shall enter, so as to carry what has been wrapped. And they shall not touch the vessels of the Sanctuary, lest they die. These are the burdens of the sons of Kohath concerning the tabernacle of the covenant.
16 Eleaza, pitit gason Arawon, prèt la, va reskonsab kontwole lwil lanp yo, lansan santi bon an, pen yo toujou ofri bay Seyè a ak lwil pou mete moun apa a. Wi, l'a kontwole tout kay Bondye a nèt ak tou sa ki ladan l', menm kote ki apa nèt pou Seyè a ak bagay ki ladan l' yo.
Over them shall be Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, to whom belongs the care of the oil to prepare the lamps, and the incense compound, and the sacrifice, which is offered continually, and the oil of unction, and whatever pertains to the service of the tabernacle, and all the vessels that are in the Sanctuary.”
17 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo konsa:
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
18 -Pa kite anyen rive moun fanmi Keyat yo ki pou ta fè yo disparèt nan mitan moun Levi yo.
“Do not be willing to lose the people of Kohath from the midst of the Levites.
19 Men sa pou nou fè pou yo pa mouri, pou yo ka viv, lè y'ap pwoche bò bagay ki apa nèt pou Seyè a. Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo va antre anvan epi y'a bay chak moun travay pa yo, y'a di yo sa pou yo pote.
But do this for them, so that they may live, and so that they may not die by touching the Holies of holies. Aaron and his sons shall enter, and they shall assign the work of each one, and they shall determine what each one ought to carry.
20 Men, moun Keyat yo pa janm gen dwa antre al gade lè y'ap vlope bagay ki apa nèt pou Seyè a. Si yo fè sa, y'ap mouri.
Let no others, out of curiosity, see the things that are in the Sanctuary before they are wrapped, otherwise they shall die.”
21 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
22 -Fè resansman tout pitit gason moun Gèchon yo tou, dapre fanmi yo, dapre branch fanmi zansèt yo.
“Now also take a total of the sons of Gershon, by their houses and families and kinships,
23 Pran non tout gason, depi sa ki gen trantan jouk sa ki gen senkantan, tou sa ki gen laj pou fè travay ki gen pou fèt nan Tant Randevou a.
from thirty years and above, even to fifty years. Number all those who enter and minister in the tabernacle of the covenant.
24 Men travay moun Gèchon yo, men sa pou yo pote:
This is the duty of the family of the Gershonites:
25 lèz twal ki sèvi pou moute kay Bondye a ansanm ak gwo tant ki kouvri kay Bondye a, kouvèti fèt ak po bazann ki anwo tant lan, seri rido ki fèmen pòt Tant Randevou a,
to carry the curtains of the tabernacle, and the roof of the covenant, the other covering, and the veil over everything, and the violet tent, which hangs at the entrance of the tabernacle of the covenant,
26 rido galeri ki kouvri tant lan ak lotèl la nèt, rido ki fèmen galeri a, kòd yo ak tout lòt bagay ki mache ak bagay sa yo. Se yo ki pou fè tout travay ki gen rapò ak bagay sa yo.
the curtains of the atrium, and the veil at the entrance, which is before tabernacle. Everything that pertains to the altar, the cords, and the vessels of the ministry
27 Moun Gèchon yo va travay sou lòd Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo. Y'a fè tout travay yo, y'a pote tou sa yo gen pou yo pote. Y'a reskonsab tou sa y'ap pote a.
the sons of Gershon shall carry, under the orders of Aaron and his sons. And so shall each one know to which burden he ought to surrender.
28 Sa se tout reskonsablite moun Gèchon yo nan travay ki gen pou fèt nan Tant Randevou a. Se Itama, pitit gason Arawon, prèt la, ki va kontwole tou sa y'ap fè.
This is the service of the family of the Gershonites, in the tabernacle of the covenant, and they shall be under the hand of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.
29 Seyè a di Moyiz ankò: -W'a fè resansman tout pitit gason moun Merari yo, dapre fanmi yo, dapre branch fanmi zansèt yo.
Likewise, you shall take a census of the sons of Merari, by the families and houses of their fathers,
30 W'a pran non tout gason, depi sa ki gen trantan jouk sa ki gen senkantan, tou sa ki gen laj pou fè travay ki gen pou fèt nan Tant Randevou a.
from thirty years and above, even to fifty years, of all who enter to the office of their ministry and to the service of the covenant of the testimony.
31 Se yo menm k'ap reskonsab pote ankadreman, travès, poto ak sipò kay Bondye yo,
These are their burdens: They shall carry the panels of the tabernacle and its bars, the columns and their bases,
32 poto, sipò, pikèt ak kòd pou galeri ki fè wonn tant lan, avèk tout bagay ki sèvi ak yo, ansanm ak tout zouti y'ap bezwen pou fè travay yo. Y'a bay chak moun non bagay la reskonsab pou l' pote a.
also the columns surrounding the atrium, with their bases and tent pegs and cords. They shall accept by number all the vessels and articles, and so shall they carry them.
33 Se tout reskonsablite moun Merari yo sa nan travay yo gen pou fè nan Tant Randevou a. Se Itama, pitit Arawon, prèt la, ki va ba yo sa pou yo fè.
This is the office of the family of the Merarites, and their ministry for the tabernacle of the covenant. And they shall be under the hand of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.”
34 Dapre lòd Seyè a te bay la, Moyiz, Arawon ak chèf pèp Izrayèl yo te fè resansman gason nan fanmi Keyat yo, dapre fanmi yo ak dapre branch fanmi zansèt yo.
Therefore, Moses and Aaron, and the leaders of the assembly, took a census of the sons of Kohath, by the kinships and houses of their fathers,
35 Yo pran non tout gason, depi sa ki gen trantan jouk sa ki gen senkantan, tou sa ki gen laj pou fè pati gwoup moun k'ap travay nan Tant Randevou a.
from thirty years and above, even to the fiftieth year, of all who enter to the ministry of the tabernacle of the covenant.
36 Yo jwenn demil sètsansenkant (2.750) gason antou nan
And there were found two thousand seven hundred fifty.
37 tout fanmi Keyat yo. Se moun sa yo ki te la pou fè travay ki gen pou fèt nan Tant Randevou a. Se yo menm Moyiz ak Arawon te konte dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz la.
This is the number of the people of Kohath, who enter the tabernacle of the covenant. These Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
38 Apre sa, yo fè resansman gason nan fanmi Gèchon yo, dapre fanmi yo ak dapre branch fanmi zansèt yo.
The sons of Gershon also were numbered by the kinships and houses of their fathers,
39 Yo pran non tout gason, depi sa ki gen trantan jouk sa ki gen senkantan, tou sa ki gen laj pou fè pati gwoup moun k'ap travay nan Tant Randevou a.
from thirty years and above, even to the fiftieth year, all who enter so as to minister in the tabernacle of the covenant.
40 Yo jwenn demil sisantran (2.630) gason
And there were found two thousand six hundred thirty.
41 nan tout fanmi Gèchon yo. Se moun sa yo ki te la pou fè travay ki gen pou fèt nan Tant Randevou a. Se yo menm Moyiz ak Arawon te konte dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz la.
This is the people of the Gershonites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the Lord.
42 Apre sa, yo fè resansman gason nan fanmi Merari yo, dapre fanmi yo ak dapre branch fanmi zansèt yo.
The sons of Merari also were numbered by the kinships and houses of their fathers,
43 Yo pran non tout gason, depi sa ki gen trantan jouk sa ki gen senkantan, tou sa ki gen laj pou fè pati gwoup moun k'ap travay nan Tant Randevou a.
from thirty years and above, even to the fiftieth year, all who enter to fulfill the rituals of the tabernacle of the covenant.
44 Yo jwenn twamil desan (3.200) gason
And there were found three thousand two hundred.
45 nan tout fanmi Merari yo. Se moun sa yo ki te la pou fè travay ki gen pou fèt nan Tant Randevou a. Se yo menm Moyiz ak Arawon te konte dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz la.
This is the number of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron counted according to the command of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
46 Se konsa Moyiz ak Arawon ak chèf pèp Izrayèl yo te fè resansman branch fanmi Levi yo, dapre fanmi yo ak dapre branch fanmi zansèt yo.
All who were counted from the Levites, and whom, by name, Moses and Aaron, and the leaders of Israel, counted by the kinships and houses of their fathers,
47 Yo te pran non tout gason, depi sa ki gen trantan jouk sa ki gen senkantan, tou sa ki gen laj pou fè pati gwoup moun k'ap travay nan Tant Randevou a, osinon k'ap pote l' lè y'ap deplase.
from thirty years and above, until the fiftieth year, entering for the ministry of the tabernacle and carrying the burdens,
48 Yo jwenn antou witmil senksankatreven (8.580) gason.
were together eight thousand five hundred eighty.
49 Se konsa, dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz pou pèp la, yo pran non chak gason moun Levi yo ak travay pou yo fè ak sa pou yo pote. Se Seyè a menm ki te bay Moyiz lòd fè resansman sa a.
Moses took a census of them, according to the word of the Lord, each one according to their office and their burdens, just as the Lord had instructed him.
