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.
They brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had set up for it: and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God.
2 Lè David te fin fè ofrann brile ak ofrann lapè a, li te beni pèp la nan non a SENYÈ a.
When David had made an end of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD.
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.
He dealt to everyone of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a portion of meat, and a cake of raisins.
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:
He appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of the LORD, and to celebrate and to thank and praise the LORD, the 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 chief, and second to him Zechariah, Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with stringed instruments and with harps; and Asaph with cymbals, sounding aloud;
6 epi Benaja avèk Jachaziel, prèt ki t ap soufle twonpèt san rete yo devan lach akò Bondye a.
and Benaiah and Jahaziel the cohanim with trumpets continually, 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.
Then on that day David first ordained to give thanks to the LORD, 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.
Oh give thanks to the LORD. Call on his name. Make his deeds known among the peoples.
9 Chante a Li menm. Chante lwanj a Li menm. Pale tout mèvèy Li yo.
Sing to him. Sing praises to him. Tell of all his marvelous works.
10 Bay glwa a sen non Li. Kite kè a sila k ap chache SENYÈ a vin ranpli ak jwa.
Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
11 Chache SENYÈ a avèk fòs Li. Chache figi Li san rete.
Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
12 Sonje zèv mèvèy ke Li te fè yo, mèvèy Li yo ak jijman, ki sòti depi nan bouch Li,
Remember his marvelous works that he has done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
13 O desandan Israël, sèvitè Li yo, fis a Jacob yo, sila Li te chwazi yo!
you offspring of Israel his servant, you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.
14 Li se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Jijman pa Li yo sou tout latè.
He is the LORD our God. 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 forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
16 akò ke li te fè avèk Abraham nan, sèman an ke Li te fè avèk Isaac la.
the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac.
17 Li te konfime sa ak Jacob kon yon règleman, A Israël, kon yon akò ki pou tout tan,
He confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
18 epi te di: “A ou menm, Mwen va bay peyi Canaan an kon pòsyon eritaj pa w.”
saying, "I will give you the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance,"
19 Pandan yo te piti an nonb, trè piti e etranje, yo nan li,
when you were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners were in it.
20 yo te mache toupatou nan yon nasyon a yon lòt, sòti nan yon wayòm pou rive nan yon lòt pèp.
They went about from nation to nation, from one 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 allowed no man to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
22 Li te di “Pa touche onksyone pa M yo, ni pa fè mal a pwofèt Mwen yo.”
"Do not touch my anointed ones. Do my prophets no harm."
23 Chante a SENYÈ a, tout latè! Pwoklame bòn nouvèl delivrans Li jou apre jou.
Sing to the LORD, all the earth. Display his salvation from day to day.
24 Pale glwa Li pami nasyon yo, gran mèvèy Li yo pami tout pèp yo.
Declare his glory among the nations, and his marvelous works 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 the LORD, and greatly to be praised. He also is to be feared above all gods.
26 Paske tout dye a pèp yo se zidòl yo ye, men SENYÈ a te fè syèl yo.
For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the LORD made the heavens.
27 Tout richès avèk majeste devan Li. Lafòs ak lajwa lakay Li.
Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and gladness 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 the LORD, you relatives of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD 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 the LORD the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come before him. Worship the LORD in holy array.
30 Tranble devan Li, tout latè. Anverite, lemond etabli byen solid. Li p ap deplase menm.
Tremble before him, all the earth. The world also is established that it can't be moved.
31 Kite syèl yo kontan e kite lemond rejwi:
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice. Let them say among the nations, "The LORD reigns."
32 Kite lanmè a fè gwo bwi, avèk tout sa ki ladann! Kite chan an ranpli ak jwa, ak tout sa ki ladann!
Let the sea roar, and its fullness. Let the field exult, 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 the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth.
34 O bay remèsiman a SENYÈ a pou bonte Li, paske lanmou dous Li a se pou tout tan.
Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
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.”
Say, "Save us, God of our salvation. Gather us together 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 be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. And all the people said, "Amen," and praised the LORD.
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;
So he left there, before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, Asaph and his brothers, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required;
38 epi Obed-Édom avèk swasant-uit manm fanmi li; Obed-Édom e anplis fis a Jedithun lan, avèk Hosa kon gadyen pòtay yo,
and Obed-Edom with their brothers, sixty-eight; Obed-Edom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be doorkeepers;
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 cohen, and his brothers the cohanim, before the tabernacle of the LORD in the high place that was at 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 offer burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of burnt offering continually morning and evening, even according to all that is written in the law of the LORD, which he commanded to 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 Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest who were chosen, who were mentioned by name, to give thanks to the LORD, because his loving kindness endures forever;
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 with trumpets and cymbals for those that should sound aloud, and with instruments for the songs of God; and the sons of Jeduthun to be at the gate.
43 Epi tout pèp la te pati, yo chak lakay yo e David te retounen pou beni lakay pa li a.
All the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.
