1 Istwa 16
1 Yo te pote lach Bondye a e te plase li nan tant ke David te fè monte pou li a. Epi yo te ofri ofrann brile avèk ofrann lapè devan Bondye.
And they bring in the Ark of God, and set it up in the midst of the tent that David has stretched out for it, and they bring burnt-offerings and peace-offerings near before God;
2 Lè David te fin fè ofrann brile ak ofrann lapè a, li te beni pèp la nan non a SENYÈ a.
and David ceases from offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, and blesses the people in the Name of YHWH,
3 Li te separe bay a chak moun Israël, ni gason, ni fanm, yo chak yon pen avèk yon pòsyon vyann ak yon gato rezen.
and gives a portion to every man of Israel, both man and woman: to each a cake of bread, and a measure of wine, and a grape-cake.
4 Li te chwazi kèk nan Levit yo pou pran chaj sèvis la devan lach SENYÈ a, pou selebre menm e bay remèsiman avèk lwanj a SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la:
And he puts before the Ark of YHWH, those ministering from the Levites, even to make mention of, and to thank, and to give praise to YHWH, God of Israel:
5 Asaph, chèf la e dezyèm apre li a, Zacharie, swiv pa Jeïel, Schemiramoth, Jehiel, Matthithia, Éliab, Benaja, Obed-Édom ak Jeïel avèk lenstriman mizik yo, ap yo, gita yo; epi Asaph sou senbal gwo bwi yo,
Asaph the head, and his second Zechariah; Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with instruments of psalteries, and with harps; and Asaph is sounding with cymbals;
6 epi Benaja avèk Jachaziel, prèt ki t ap soufle twonpèt san rete yo devan lach akò Bondye a.
and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests [are] continually [sounding] with trumpets before the Ark of the Covenant of God.
7 Alò, se te nan jou sa a, David te chwazi pou premye fwa a, Asaph avèk fanmi li pou bay remèsiman a SENYÈ a.
On that day, at that time, David has given at the beginning to give thanks to YHWH by the hand of Asaph and his brothers:
8 O bay remèsiman a SENYÈ a. Rele non Li. Fè zèv li yo rekonèt pami pèp yo.
“Give thanks to YHWH, call on His Name, Make His doings known among the peoples.
9 Chante a Li menm. Chante lwanj a Li menm. Pale tout mèvèy Li yo.
Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him, Meditate on all His wonders.
10 Bay glwa a sen non Li. Kite kè a sila k ap chache SENYÈ a vin ranpli ak jwa.
Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking YHWH rejoices.
11 Chache SENYÈ a avèk fòs Li. Chache figi Li san rete.
Seek YHWH and His strength, Seek His face continually.
12 Sonje zèv mèvèy ke Li te fè yo, mèvèy Li yo ak jijman, ki sòti depi nan bouch Li,
Remember His wonders that He did, His signs, and the judgments of His mouth,
13 O desandan Israël, sèvitè Li yo, fis a Jacob yo, sila Li te chwazi yo!
O seed of Israel, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones!
14 Li se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Jijman pa Li yo sou tout latè.
He [is] our God YHWH, His judgments [are] in all the earth.
15 Sonje akò Li a pou tout tan, Pawòl ke Li te kòmande a mil jenerasyon yo,
Remember His covenant for all time, The word He commanded—To one thousand generations,
16 akò ke li te fè avèk Abraham nan, sèman an ke Li te fè avèk Isaac la.
Which He has made with Abraham, And His oath—to Isaac,
17 Li te konfime sa ak Jacob kon yon règleman, A Israël, kon yon akò ki pou tout tan,
And He establishes it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel [for] a perpetual covenant,
18 epi te di: “A ou menm, Mwen va bay peyi Canaan an kon pòsyon eritaj pa w.”
Saying, To you I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,
19 Pandan yo te piti an nonb, trè piti e etranje, yo nan li,
When you were few in number, As a little thing, and sojourners in it.
20 yo te mache toupatou nan yon nasyon a yon lòt, sòti nan yon wayòm pou rive nan yon lòt pèp.
And they go up and down, From nation to nation, And from a kingdom to another people.
21 Li pa t kite okenn moun oprime yo. Li te bay repwòch a wa yo pou koz pa yo.
He has not permitted any to oppress them, And reproves kings on their account:
22 Li te di “Pa touche onksyone pa M yo, ni pa fè mal a pwofèt Mwen yo.”
Do not come against My anointed ones, And do no evil against My prophets.
23 Chante a SENYÈ a, tout latè! Pwoklame bòn nouvèl delivrans Li jou apre jou.
Sing to YHWH, all the earth, Proclaim His salvation from day to day.
24 Pale glwa Li pami nasyon yo, gran mèvèy Li yo pami tout pèp yo.
Recount His glory among nations, His wonders among all the peoples.
25 Paske gran se SENYÈ a, e gran pou resevwa lwanj yo. Anplis, fòk nou gen lakrent Li plis pase tout lòt dye yo.
For great [is] YHWH, and greatly praised, And He [is] fearful above all gods.
26 Paske tout dye a pèp yo se zidòl yo ye, men SENYÈ a te fè syèl yo.
For all gods of the peoples [are] nothing, And YHWH has made the heavens.
27 Tout richès avèk majeste devan Li. Lafòs ak lajwa lakay Li.
Splendor and majesty [are] before Him, Strength and joy [are] in His place.
28 Bay a SENYÈ a, O tout fanmi yo ak tout pèp yo, bay a SENYÈ a glwa avèk fòs!
Ascribe to YHWH, you families of peoples, Ascribe to YHWH glory and strength.
29 Bay a SENYÈ a glwa ke non Li dwe genyen an. Pote lofrann yo vini devan L. Adore SENYÈ a avèk tout bagay sen yo.
Ascribe to YHWH the glory of His Name, Lift up a present, and come before Him. Bow yourselves to YHWH, In the beauty of holiness.
30 Tranble devan Li, tout latè. Anverite, lemond etabli byen solid. Li p ap deplase menm.
Be pained before Him, all the earth; Also, the world is established, It is not moved!
31 Kite syèl yo kontan e kite lemond rejwi:
The heavens rejoice, and the earth is glad, And they say among nations, YHWH has reigned!
32 Kite lanmè a fè gwo bwi, avèk tout sa ki ladann! Kite chan an ranpli ak jwa, ak tout sa ki ladann!
The sea roars, and its fullness, The field exults, and all that [is] in it,
33 Konsa, tout bwa forè yo va chante avèk jwa devan SENYÈ a. Paske L ap vini pou jije latè.
Then trees of the forest sing, From the presence of YHWH, For He has come to judge the earth!
34 O bay remèsiman a SENYÈ a pou bonte Li, paske lanmou dous Li a se pou tout tan.
Give thanks to YHWH, for [He is] good, For His kindness [is] for all time,
35 Di: “Sove nou, O Bondye a delivrans nou an! Ranmase nou pou sove nou soti nan nasyon yo, pou bay remèsiman a non sen pa W la, pou nou trionfe nan lwanj Ou.”
And say, Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us, and deliver us from the nations, To give thanks to Your Holy Name, To triumph in Your praise.
36 Beni se SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, Pou letènite, jis rive nan letènite a. Tout pèp la te di: “Amen” e te louwe SENYÈ a.
Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, From age to age”; And all the people say, “Amen,” and have given praise to YHWH.
37 Konsa, li te kiteAsaph avèk fanmi li la devan lach akò SENYÈ a pou fè sèvis devan lach la tout tan, kon travay chak jou te egzije a;
And he leaves there [those] of Asaph and of his brothers, before the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, to minister before the Ark continually, according to the matter of a day in its day;
38 epi Obed-Édom avèk swasant-uit manm fanmi li; Obed-Édom e anplis fis a Jedithun lan, avèk Hosa kon gadyen pòtay yo,
both Obed-Edom and their sixty-eight brothers, and Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, for gatekeepers;
39 Li te kite Tsadok, prèt la avèk fanmi pa li yo devan tabènak SENYÈ a nan wo plas ki te Gabaon an,
and Zadok the priest, and his brothers the priests, before the Dwelling Place of YHWH, in a high place that [is] in Gibeon,
40 pou ofri ofrann brile yo a SENYÈ a sou lotèl ofrann brile a tout tan, ni maten, ni aswè, jis selon tout sa ki ekri nan lalwa SENYÈ a, ke Li te kòmande Israël yo.
to cause burnt-offerings to ascend continually to YHWH on the altar of burnt-offering, morning and evening, and for all that is written in the Law of YHWH that He charged on Israel.
41 Avèk yo, te Héman, Jeduthun ak lòt ki te dezinye pa non yo, pou bay remèsiman a SENYÈ a, akoz lanmou dous li an san fen.
And with them [are] Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen, who were defined by name, to give thanks to YHWH, for His kindness [is] for all time;
42 Epi avèk yo, te Héman ak Jeduthun avèk twonpèt avèk senbal pou sila ki te gen pou fè enstriman retantisan pou chan Bondye yo e fis a Jeduthun yo, pou pòtay la.
and with them—Heman and Jeduthun—[are] trumpets and cymbals for those sounding, and instruments of the song of God, and the sons of Jeduthun [are] at the gate.
43 Epi tout pèp la te pati, yo chak lakay yo e David te retounen pou beni lakay pa li a.
And all the people go, each to his house, and David turns around to bless his house.
