< 1 Istwa 23 >
1 Alò, lè David te vin granmoun, li te fè fis li Salomon, wa sou Israël.
Therfor Dauid was eld and ful of daies, and ordeynede Salomon, his sone, kyng on Israel.
2 Li te ranmase tout chèf Israël yo avèk prèt ak Levit yo.
And he gaderide togidere alle the princes of Israel, and the preestis, and dekenes;
3 Levit yo te kontwole soti nan trant ane oswa plis e fòs non pa yo selon gwo chif kontwòl la, te trant-uit-mil.
and the dekenes weren noumbrid fro twenti yeer and aboue, and eiyte and thretti thousynde of men weren foundun.
4 Nan sila yo, venn-kat-mil te pou sipèvize lèv lakay SENYÈ a, si-mil te ofisye avèk jij,
And foure and twenty thousynde men weren chosun of hem, and weren departid in to the seruyce of the hows of the Lord; sotheli of souereyns, and iugis, sixe thousynde;
5 kat-mil te gadyen pòtay yo, e kat-mil ki pou louwe SENYÈ a avèk enstriman ke David te fè pou bay lwanj yo.
forsothe foure thousynde `porteris weren, and so many syngeris, syngynge to the Lord in orguns, whiche Dauid hadde maad for to synge.
6 David te divize yo an gwoup selon fanmi de fis yo a Lévi: Guerschon, Kehath, ak Merari.
And Dauid departide hem bi the whilis of the sones of Leuy, that is, of Gerson, and of Caath, and Merary.
7 Nan Gèshonit yo: Laedan avèk Schimeï.
And the sones of Gerson weren Leedan and Semeye.
8 Fis a Laedan yo: Jehiel, premye a, Zétham ak Joël, ki fè twa.
The sones of Leedan weren thre, the prince Jehiel, and Ethan, and Johel.
9 Fis a Shimei yo: Schelomith, Haziel avèk Haran, ki fè twa. Sila yo se te chèf lakay zansèt a Ladann yo.
The sones of Semei weren thre, Salamyth, and Oziel, and Aram; these weren the princes of the meynees of Leedan.
10 Fis a Shimei yo: Jahath, Zina, Jeush avèk Berlah. Kat sila yo te fis a Schimeï.
Forsothe the sones of Semeye weren Leeth, and Ziza, and Yaus, and Baria, these foure weren the sones of Semei.
11 Jachath se te premye a e Zina dezyèm nan; men Jeusch avèk Beria pa t fè anpil fis; akoz sa, yo te fòme yon sèl kay zansèt, yon sèl gwoup.
Sotheli Leeth was the formere, and Ziza the secounde; forsothe Yaus and Baria hadden not ful many sones, and therfor thei weren rikenyd in o meynee and oon hows.
12 Fis a Kehath yo: Amram, Jitsehar, Hébron avèk Uziel, kat.
The sones of Caath weren foure, Amram, and Ysaac, Ebron, and Oziel.
13 Fis a Anram yo: Aaron avèk Moïse. Epi Aaron te mete apa pou l te kab sanktifye li kote ki pi sen pase tout kote a, li menm avèk fis pa li yo jis pou tout tan, pou brile lansan devan SENYÈ a, pou fè sèvis pa Li, e pou beni nan non Li jis pou tout tan.
The sones of Amram weren Aaron and Moyses; and Aaron was departid, that he schulde mynystre in the hooli thing of hooli thingis, he and hise sones with outen ende, and to brenne encense to the Lord bi his custom, and to blesse his name with outen ende.
14 Men Moïse, nonm Bondye a, fis pa li yo te rele pami tribi Lévi a.
Also the sones of Moyses, man of God, weren noumbrid in the lynage of Leuy.
15 Fis a Moïse yo: Guerschom avèk Éliézer.
The sones of Moises weren Gerson and Elieser.
16 Fis a Guerschom yo: Schebuel, chèf la.
The sones of Gerson; `Subuhel the firste.
17 Fis a Éliézer a te Rechabia, chèf la. Éliézer pa t gen lòt fis, men fis a Rechabia yo te an gran kantite.
Sotheli the sones of Eliezer weren Roboya the firste, and othere sones weren not to Eliezer; forsothe the sones of Roboia weren multipliede ful miche.
18 Fis a Jitsehar a: Schelomith, chèf la.
The sones of Isaar; `Salumuth the firste.
19 Fis a Hébron yo: Jerija, premye a; Amaria, dezyèm nan, Jachaziel, twazyèm nan; epi Jekameam, katriyèm nan.
The sones of Ebron; `Jerian the firste, Amarias the secounde, Jaziel the thridde, Jethamaan the fourthe.
20 Fis a Uziel yo: Michée, premye a ak Jischija, dezyèm nan.
The sones of Oziel; `Mycha the firste, Jesia the secounde.
21 Fis a Merari yo: Machli avèk Muschi. Fis a Machli yo: Éléazar avèk Kis.
The sones of Merari weren Mooli and Musi. The sones of Mooli weren Eleazar, and Cys.
22 Éléazar te mouri san fè fis, men fi sèlman; pou sa, frè pa yo, fis a Kis yo te pran yo kon madanm pa yo.
Sotheli Eleazar was deed, and hadde not sones, but douytris; and the sones of Cys, the britheren of hem, weddiden hem.
23 Fis a Muschi yo: Machli, Éder avèk Jerémoth, twa.
The sones of Musi weren thre, Mooli, and Heder, and Jerymuth.
24 Sila yo se te fis a Lévi selon lakay zansèt pa yo, menm lakay zansèt a sila ki te kontwole nan kantite non nan gwo chif kontwòl la, sila ki t ap fè travay lakay SENYÈ a, soti nan ventan oswa plis.
These weren the sones of Leuy in her kynredis and meynees, prynces bi whilis, and noumbre of alle heedis, that diden the trauel of the seruyce of the hows of the Lord, fro twenti yeer and aboue.
25 Paske David te di: “SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, te bay repo a pèp Li a, e Li va abite Jérusalem jis pou tout tan.
For Dauid seide, The Lord God of Israel hath youe reste to his puple, and a dwellyng in Jerusalem til in to with outen ende;
26 Anplis, Levit yo p ap ankò bezwen pote tabènak avèk tout zouti li yo pou sèvis li.”
and it schal not be the office of dekenes for to bere more the tabernacle, and alle vessels therof for to mynystre.
27 Paske pa dènye pawòl a David yo, fis a Levi yo te kontwole soti ventan oswa plis.
Also bi the laste comaundementis of Dauid the noumbre of the sones of Leuy schulen be rikened fro twenti yeer and aboue;
28 Paske wòl pa yo se pou ede fis a Aaron yo avèk sèvis lakay SENYÈ a, nan gwo lakou yo, nan chanm yo ak nan pirifye tout bagay sen yo, menm travay a sèvis lakay Bondye a,
and thei schulen be vndir the hond of the sones of Aaron in to the worschipe of the hows of the Lord, in porchis, and in chaumbris, and in the place of clensyng, and in the seyntuarie, and in alle werkis of the seruyce of the temple of the Lord.
29 epi avèk pen konsakre ak farin fen pou yon ofrann sereyal, galèt san ledven, oswa sa ki kwit nan veso, ni sa ki byen mele ak tout mezi a volim oswa gwosè yo.
Forsothe preestis schulen be ouer the looues of proposicioun, and to the sacrifice of flour, and to the pastis sodun in watir, and to the therf looues, and friyng panne, and to hoot flour, and to seenge, and ouer al weiyte and mesure.
30 Yo gen pou kanpe chak maten pou bay remèsiman avèk lwanj a SENYÈ a, e menm jan an nan aswè,
Forsothe the dekenes schulen be, that thei stonde eerli, for to knowleche and synge to the Lord, and lijk maner at euentide,
31 epi pou ofri tout ofrann brile a SENYÈ a, nan Saba yo, nan nouvèl lin yo, avèk fèt etabli yo nan kontwòl ki òdone selon òdonans de yo menm, tout tan san rete devan SENYÈ a.
as wel in the offryng of brent sacrifices of the Lord, as in sabatis, and kalendis, and othere solempnytees, bi the noumbre and cerymonyes of eche thing contynueli bifor the Lord;
32 Konsa yo gen pou kenbe chaj sou asanble tant yo, chaj sou plas sen an e chaj sou fis Aaron yo, fanmi pa yo, pou sèvis lakay SENYÈ a.
and that thei kepe the obseruaunces of the tabernacle of the boond of pees of the Lord, and the custum of the seyntuarie, and the obseruaunce of the sones of Aaron, her britheren, that thei mynystre in the hows of the Lord.
