1 Istwa 15

1 Alò, David te bati kay pou li menm nan lavil David. Epi li te prepare yon plas pou lach Bondye a e te monte yon tant pou li.

And he maketh for himself houses in the city of David, and prepareth a place for the ark of God, and stretcheth out for it a tent.

2 Alò, David te di: “Pèsòn pa pou pote lach Bondye a sof ke Levit yo, paske SENYÈ a te chwazi yo pou pote lach Bondye a e pou fè sèvis a Li pou tout tan.”

Then said David, 'None [are] to carry the ark of God, except the Levites, for on them hath Jehovah fixed to carry the ark of God, and to serve Him — unto the age.'

3 Konsa, David te rasanble tout Israël Jérusalem pou pote fè monte lach Bondye a nan plas ke li te prepare pou li a.

And David assembleth all Israel unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Jehovah unto its place that he had prepared for it.

4 David te rasanble tout fis a Aaron yo ak Levit yo:

And David gathereth the sons of Aaron, and the Levites.

5 Fis a Kehath yo, Uriel, chèf avèk frè li yo ak san-ven nan moun fanmi li yo;

Of sons of Kohath: Uriel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and twenty.

6 fis a Merari yo, Asaja, chèf la ak de-san-ven nan fanmi pa li yo;

Of sons of Merari: Asaiah the chief, and his brethren, two hundred and twenty.

7 nan fis a Guerschom yo, Joël, chèf la ak san-trant nan fanmi pa li yo;

Of sons of Gershom: Joel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and thirty.

8 nan fis a Élitsaphan yo, Schemaeja, chèf la ak de-san nan fanmi pa li yo;

Of sons of Elizaphan: Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren, two hundred.

9 nan fis a Hébron yo, Éliel, chèf la ak katre-ven mesye nan fanmi pa li yo;

Of sons of Hebron: Eliel the chief, and his brethren, eighty.

10 nan fis a Uziel yo, Amminadab, chèf la ak san-douz mesye nan fanmi pa li yo.

Of sons of Uzziel: Amminadab the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and twelve.

11 Alò, David te rele Tsadok ak Abiathar, prèt yo ak Levit yo, Uriel, Asaja, Joël, Schemaeja, Éliel ak Amminadab.

And David calleth to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, and to the Levites, to Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,

12 Li te di yo: “Nou se chèf lakay zansèt nou yo pou Levit yo. Konsakre nou menm, ni nou, ni manm fanmi pa nou, pou nou kapab pote fè monte lach SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, rive nan plas ke m te prepare pou li a.

and saith to them, 'Ye [are] heads of the fathers of the Levites; sanctify yourselves, ye and your brethren, and ye have brought up the ark of Jehovah, God of Israel, unto [the place] I have prepared for it;

13 Akoz nou pa t pote l nan kòmansman an, SENYÈ a, Bondye pa nou an, te fè yon sèl pete sou nou, paske nou pa t chache Li selon règ li yo.”

because at the first [it was] not ye, Jehovah our God made a breach upon us, because we sought Him not according to the ordinance.'

14 Pou sa, prèt yo avèk Levit yo te konsakre yo menm pou pote fè monte lach SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la.

And the priests and the Levites sanctify themselves, to bring up the ark of Jehovah, God of Israel;

15 Fis Levit yo te pote lach Bondye a sou zepòl pa yo avèk poto ki tache ladann, kon Moïse te kòmande yo pa pawòl SENYÈ a.

and sons of the Levites bear the ark of God, as Moses commanded, according to the word of Jehovah, on their shoulder, with staves, above them.

16 Epi David te pale avèk chèf Levit yo, pou dispoze fanmi pa yo, chantè yo, avèk lenstriman mizik yo, ap yo, gita yo, senbal ki sonnen fò yo, pou fè leve kri lajwa yo.

And David saith to the heads of the Levites to appoint their brethren the singers, with instruments of song, psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, sounding, to lift up with the voice for joy.

17 Konsa, Levit yo te chwazi Héman, fis a Joël la e soti nan fanmi pa li a, Asaph, fis a Bérékia a; epi soti nan fis a Merari yo avèk fanmi pa yo, Éthan, fis a Kuschaja a;

And the Levites appoint Heman son of Joel, and of his brethren, Asaph son of Berechiah, and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan son of Kushaiah;

18 epi avèk yo, fanmi a dezyèm nivo a, Zacharie, Ben, Jaaziel, Schemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Éliab, Benaja, Maaséja, Matthithja, Éliphelé, avèk Miknéja, ak pòtè yo, Obed-Édom avèk Jeïel, gadyen pòt yo.

and with them their brethren, the seconds [in rank], Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah; and Obed-Edom and Jeiel the gatekeepers;

19 Konsa chantè yo, Héman, Asaph ak Éthan pou fè sonnen senbal bwonz yo;

and the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, with cymbals of brass to sound,

20 epi Zacharie, Aziel, Schemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Éliab, Maaséja ak Benaja avèk ap ki te fè son selon Alamòt la;

and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jeheil, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries besides virgins,

21 epi Matthithia, Éliphelé, Miknéia, Obed-Édom, Jeïel avèk Azazia, pou pran avan avèk ap uit kòd pou kondwi chan an.

and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps, on the octave, to oversee.

22 Kenania, chèf Levit yo, te an chaj chante a. Li te bay enstriksyon nan chante a paske li te fò.

And Chenaniah, head of the Levites, [is] over the burden; he instructeth about the burden, for he [is] intelligent.

23 Bérékia avèk Elkana te gadyen pòtay pou lach la.

And Berechiah and Elkanah [are] gatekeepers for the ark.

24 Schebania, Josaphat, Nethaneel, Amasaï, Zacharie, Benaja ak Éliézer, prèt yo te soufle twonpèt yo devan lach a Bondye a. Obed-Édom avèk Jechitja te gadyen pòtay lach la.

And Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer the priests, are blowing with trumpets before the ark of God; and Obed-Edom and Jehiah [are] gatekeepers for the ark.

25 Konsa David, avèk lansyen Israël yo, avèk kapitèn a dè milye yo, te ale pou pote fè monte lach akò SENYÈ a soti lakay Obed-Édom nan mitan yon gran rejwisans.

And it is David, and the elders of Israel, and the heads of the thousands, who are going to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the house of Obed-Edom with joy;

26 Akoz Bondye t ap ede Levit ki t ap pote lach akò SENYÈ yo, yo te fè sakrifis sèt towo ak sèt belye.

and it cometh to pass, in God's helping the Levites bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, that they sacrifice seven bullocks and seven rams.

27 Alò, David te abiye avèk yon manto len fen, menm avèk tout Levit ki t ap pote lach la, e chantè yo avèk Kenania, chèf mizik pami chantè yo. Epi David te abiye osi ak yon efòd an len.

And David is wrapped in an upper robe of fine linen, and all the Levites who are bearing the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah head of the burden of the singers; and on David [is] an Ephod of linen.

28 Konsa, tout Israël te pote monte lach akò SENYÈ a avèk gwo kri, avèk son a kòn soufle, avèk twonpèt, avèk gwo bwi a senbal, avèk ap ak gita.

And all Israel are bringing up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of a cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding with psalteries and harps,

29 Li te rive lè lach akò SENYÈ a te vini nan vil David la, ke Mical, fi a Saül la, te gade deyò fenèt la e te wè Wa David t ap vòltije e selebre. Konsa, li te meprize li nan kè l.

and it cometh to pass, the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is entering in unto the city of David, and Michal daughter of Saul is looking through the window, and seeth king David dancing and playing, and despiseth him in her heart.
