28 Alò, tout lòt moun nan pèp la, prèt yo, Levit yo, gadyen pòtay yo, chantè yo, sèvitè tanp yo ak tout sila ki te separe yo menm soti nan pèp peyi yo pou lalwa Bondye pa yo, madanm pa yo, fis yo ak fi yo, tout sila ki te gen konesans avèk bon konprann yo,
As for the rest of the people, who were priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, temple servants, and all who had separated themselves from the people of the neighboring lands and pledged themselves to the law of God, including their wives, their sons and their daughters, all who have knowledge and understanding,
29 t ap reyini ansanm avèk moun fanmi yo, chèf pa yo e t ap pran sou yo menm, sou nivo madichon, yon sèman, pou mache nan lalwa Bondye, ki te bay pa Moïse la, Sèvitè Bondye a, e pou kenbe ak obeyi tout kòmandman a Bondye yo, SENYÈ nou an, avèk òdonans Li yo avèk règleman Li yo;
they joined together with their brothers, their nobles, and bound themselves with both a curse and an oath to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and obey all the commandments of Yahweh our Lord and his decrees and his statutes.
30 epi pou nou pa bay fi nou yo a pèp peyi la, ni pran fi pa yo pou fis nou yo.
We promised that we would not give our daughters to the people of the land or take their daughters for our sons.
31 Epi selon pèp peyi la ki konn vini avèk machandiz avèk manje pou vann nan Saba a, nou p ap achte nan men yo nan Saba a ni nan okenn jou sen. Anplis, nou va lese rekòlt yo nan setyèm ane a, ansanm avèk koleksyon a tout dèt.
We also promised that if the people of the land bring goods or any grain to sell on the Sabbath day, we would not buy from them on the Sabbath or on any holy day. Every seventh year we will let our fields rest, and we will cancel all debts.
32 Ankò, nou plase pwòp tèt nou anba obligasyon pou fè kontribisyon yon tyè sik chak ane pou sèvis lakay Bondye nou an:
We accepted the commands to give a third of a shekel each year for the service of the house of our God,
33 pou pen konsakre, ofrann sereyal ki pa janm fini, ofrann brile ki pa janm fini, Saba yo, nouvèl lin, pou lè chwazi yo, pou bagay sen yo e pou ofrann peche pou fè ekspiyasyon pou peche Israël yo ak tout travay lakay Bondye nou an.
to provide for the bread of the presence, and for the regular grain offering, the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, the new moon festivals and appointed feasts, and for the holy offerings, and for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, as well as for all the work of the house of our God.
34 Menm jan an, nou te tire osò pou founi depo bwa pou prèt yo, Levit yo ak pèp la pou yo ta kab mennen li lakay Bondye a, selon lakay zansèt papa nou yo, nan lè ki te etabli nan ane a, pou brile sou lotèl SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, jan sa ekri nan lalwa a;
The priests, the Levites, and the people cast lots for the wood offering. The lots would select which of our families would bring wood into the house of our God at the appointed times each year, to be burned on the altar of Yahweh our God, as it is written in the law.
35 epi pou yo ta kab pote premye fwi tè yo avèk premye fwi a tout fwi a tout pyebwa yo, lakay SENYÈ a chak ane,
We promised to bring to the house of Yahweh the firstfruits grown from our soil, and the firstfruits of every tree each year.
36 epi pote lakay Bondye nou an, premye ne a fis nou yo ak bèf nou yo e premye ne nan bann mouton avèk twoupo nou yo, jan sa ekri nan lalwa a, pou prèt ki ap sèvi lakay Bondye nou an.
As it is written in the law, we promised to bring to the house of God and to the priests who serve there, the firstborn of our sons and of our herds and flocks.
37 E ke nou va, osi, pote premye nan pat farin nou yo, kontribisyon nou yo, fwi a tout pyebwa, diven nèf avèk lwil pou prèt yo nan chanm lakay Bondye nou an ak dim tè nou pou Levit yo; paske se Levit yo ki resevwa dim nan tout vil andeyò yo.
We will bring the first of our dough and our grain offerings, and the fruit of every tree, and the new wine and the oil we will bring to the priests, to the storerooms of the house of our God. We will bring to the Levites the tithes from our soil because the Levites collect the tithes in all the towns where we work.
38 Prèt la, fis a Aaron an, va avèk Levit yo lè Levit yo resevwa dim yo, e Levit yo va pote yon dizyèm nan dim pa yo vè lakay Bondye nou an, pou l antre nan chanm depo yo.
A priest, a descendant of Aaron, must be with the Levites when they receive the tithes. The Levites must bring a tenth of the tithes to the house of our God to the storerooms of the treasury.
39 Paske, fis Israël yo avèk fis Lévi yo va pote don sereyal la, diven nèf la ak lwil la nan chanm yo. La se zouti a sanktiyè yo, prèt k ap fè sèvis yo, gadyen pòtay yo, ak chantè yo. Konsa, nou p ap neglije lakay Bondye nou an.
For the people of Israel and the descendants of Levi are to bring the contributions of grain, new wine, and oil to the storerooms where the articles of the sanctuary are kept and where the priests who are serving, and the gatekeepers, and the singers stay. We will not neglect the house of our God.
