Neemi 12
1 Alò, sila yo se te prèt avèk Levit ki te monte avèk Zorobabel, fis a Schealthiel la ak Josué: Seraja, Jérémie, Esdras,
Now these [are] the priests and the Levites that went up with Zorobabel the son of Salathiel and Jesus: Saraia, Jeremia, Esdra,
2 Amaria, Malluc, Hattusch,
Amaria, Maluch,
3 Schecania, Rehum, Merémoth,
Sechenia.
4 Iddo, Guinnethoï, Abija,
5 Mijamin, Maadia, Bilga,
6 Schemaeja, Jojarib, Jedaeja.
7 Sallu, Amok, Hilkija, Jedaeja. Sila yo te chèf prèt yo avèk fanmi pa yo nan tan Josué a.
These [were] the chiefs of the priests, and their brethren in the days of Jesus.
8 Levit yo te Josué, Binnuï, Kadmiel, Schérébia, Juda, Matthania, ki, avèk frè li yo, te dirije chan remèsiman yo.
And the Levites [were], Jesus, Banui, Cadmiel, Sarabia, Jodae, Matthania: he [was] over the bands,
9 Anplis Bakbukia avèk Unni, frè pa yo ki te kanpe anfas yo nan divizyon sèvis yo.
and his brethren [were appointed] to the daily courses.
10 Josué te vin papa a Jojakim, Jojakim te fè Éliaschib, Éliaschib te fè Jojada,
And Jesus begot Joakim, and Joakim begot Eliasib, and Eliasib [begot] Jodae,
11 Jojada te fè Jonathan e Jonathan te fè Jaddua.
and Jodae begot Jonathan, and Jonathan begot Jadu.
12 Alò, nan tan Jojakim, prèt yo, chèf an tèt lakay zansèt papa yo te pou Seraja, Meraja, e pou Jérémie, Hanania;
And in the days of Joakim, his brethren the priests and the heads of families [were, belonging] to Saraia, Amaria; to Jeremia, Anania;
13 Pou Esdras, Meschullam; pou Amaria, Jochanan;
to Esdra, Mesulam; to Amaria, Joanan;
14 pou Meluki, Jonathan; pou Schebvania, Jospeh;
to Amaluch, Jonathan; to Sechenia, Joseph;
15 pou Harim, Adna; pou Merajoth, Helkaï;
to Are, Mannas; to Marioth, Elcai;
16 pou Iddo, Zacharie; pou Guinnethon, Meschullam;
to Adadai, Zacharia; to Ganathoth, Mesolam;
17 pou Abija, Zicri; pou Minjamin avèk Moadia, Pilthaï;
to Abia, Zechri; to Miamin, Maadai; to Pheleti, [one];
18 pou Bilga, Schammua; pou Schemaeja, Jonathan;
to Balgas, Samue; to Semia, Jonathan;
19 pou Jojarib, Matthnaï; pou Jedaeja, Uzzi;
to Joarib, Matthanai; to Edio, Ozi;
20 pou Sallaï, Kallaï; pou Amok, Éber;
to Salai, Callai; to Amec, Abed;
21 pou Hilkija, Haschabla; pou Jedaeja, Nathanaël.
to Elkia, Asabias; to Jedeiu, Nathanael.
22 Epi pou Levit yo, chèf an tèt lakay papa zansèt pa yo te anrejistre nan jou a Éliaschib yo, Jojada, avèk Jochanan ak Jaddua; konsa yo te sèvi kon prèt nan règn Darius, Perse la.
The Levites in the days of Eliasib, Joada, and Joa, and Joanan, and Idua, [were] recorded heads of families: also the priests, in the reign of Darius the Persian.
23 Fis a Lévi yo, chèf an tèt lakay papa zansèt yo, te anrejistre nan Liv A Kwonik yo jis rive nan tan Jochanan, fis Éliaschib la.
And the sons of Levi, heads of families, [were] written in the book of the chronicles, even to the days of Joanan son of Elisue.
24 Chèf an tèt a Levit yo te Haschabia, Schérébia e Josué, fis a Kadmiel la, avèk frè pa yo anfas yo, pou bay lwanj avèk remèsiman, jan sa te preskri pa David, nonm Bondye a, divizyon ki te koresponn ak divizyon.
And the heads of the Levites [were] Asabia, and Sarabia, and Jesu: and the sons of Cadmiel, and their brethren over against them, were to sing hymns of praise, according to the commandment of David the man of God, course by course.
25 Matthania, Bakbukia, Abdias, Meschullam, Thalmon avèk Akkub, te gadyen pòtay ki te responsab veye depo pòtay yo.
When I gathered the porters,
26 Sila yo te sèvi nan jou a Jojakim yo, fis a Josué a, fis a Jotsadak la e nan jou a Néhémie yo, gouvènè a, avèk Esdras, prèt la ak skrib.
[it was] in the days of Joakim son of Jesus, son of Josedec, and in the days of Neemia: and Esdras the priest [was] scribe.
27 Alò, nan dedikasyon miray Jérusalem nan, yo te chache twouve Levit soti nan tout plas yo pou mennen yo Jérusalem pou yo ta kab selebre dedikasyon an avèk jwa, avèk lwanj kè kontan, avèk chan avèk senbal, ap ak lenstriman a kòd yo.
And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites in their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep a feast of dedication and gladness with thanksgiving, and they sounded cymbals with songs, and [had] lutes and harps.
28 Konsa, fis a chantè yo te rasanble soti nan distri ki te antoure Jérusalem nan e soti nan vilaj a Netofatyen yo,
And the sons of the singers were assembled both from the neighbourhood round about to Jerusalem, and from the villages,
29 soti Beth-Guilgal, avèk chan nan Guéba avèk Azmavet, paske chantè yo te fin bati pou kont yo vilaj nan anviwon Jérusalem yo.
and from the country: for the singers built themselves villages by Jerusalem.
30 Prèt yo avèk Levit yo te pirifye tèt yo; anplis, yo te pirifye pèp la, pòt yo avèk miray la.
And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and they purified the people, and the porters, and the wall.
31 Konsa, mwen te fè dirijan a Juda yo vin monte sou miray la, e mwen te chwazi de gran gwoup koral premye ki t ap sòti sou bò dwat anlè miray la vè Pòtay Kolin Fimye a.
And they brought up the princes of Juda on the wall, and they appointed two great [companies] for thanksgiving, and they passed on the right hand on the wall of the dung-gate.
32 Hosée avèk mwatye nan dirijan Juda yo te swiv yo,
And after them went Osaia, and half the princes of Juda,
33 avèk Azaria, Esdras, Meschullam,
and Azarias, and Esdras, and Mesollam,
34 Juda, Benjamin, Schemaja, avèk Jérémie,
and Juda, and Benjamin, and Samaias and Jeremia.
35 epi kèk nan fis a prèt yo avèk twonpèt yo: Zacharie, fis a Jonathan an, fis a Schemaeja a, fis a Matthania a, fis a Michée a, fis a Zaccur a, fis a Asaph la;
And [some] of the sons of the priest with trumpets, Zacharias son of Jonathan, son of Samaias, son of Matthania, son of Michaia, son of Zacchur, son of Asaph:
36 avèk fanmi li yo, Schemaeja, Azaneel, Juda ak Hanani, avèk enstriman mizik a David yo, nonm Bondye a. Epi Esdras, skrib la, te ale devan yo.
and his brethren, Samaia, and Oziel, Gelol, Jama, Aia, Nathanael, and Juda, Anani, to praise with the hymns of David the man of God; and Esdras the scribe [was] before them,
37 Nan Pòtay Sous Bwote a, yo te monte tou dwat sou eskalye lavil David la toupre eskalye miray la anwo lakay David la, pou rive nan Pòtay Dlo a vè lès.
at the gate, to praise before them, and they went up by the steps of the city of David, in the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even to the water-gate
38 Dezyèm koral la te ale vè goch, pandan mwen t ap swiv yo avèk mwatye pèp la sou miray la, anwo Tou Founo yo, rive nan Gran Miray la.
39 Epi anwo Pòtay Éphraïm nan, kote Pòtay ansyen an, kote Pòtay Pwason an, Fò Hananeel la ak fò a dè Santèn yo, jis rive nan Pòtay Mouton yo; epi yo te rete kanpe nan Pòtay Gad la.
of Ephraim, and to the fish-gate, and by the tower of Anameel, and as far as the sheep-gate.
40 Epi de koral yo te kanpe nan pozisyon yo lakay Bondye a, e mwen menm tou, avèk mwatye ofisye ki te avè m yo;
41 epi prèt yo, Éliakim, Maaséja, Minjamin, Michée, Eljoénaï, Zacharie, Hanania, avèk twonpèt yo;
42 epi Maaséja, Schemaeja, Éléazar, Uzzi, Jochanan, Malkija, Élam ak Ézer. Epi chantè yo te chante avèk Jizrachja, dirijan pa yo a,
And the singers were heard, and were numbered.
43 Nan jou sa a, yo te ofri gran sakrifis e te rejwi paske Bondye te bay yo gwo lajwa. Fanm yo ak timoun yo tou te rejwi, jiskaske lajwa Jérusalem nan te tande byen lwen.
And in that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced; for God had made them very joyful: and their wives and their children rejoiced: and the joy in Jerusalem was heard from afar off.
44 Anplis, nan jou sa a, mesye yo te chwazi kon responsab sou chanm depo yo, kontribisyon yo, premye fwi yo, ak dim yo, pou ranmase yo antre soti nan chan nan vil yo, pòsyon ki te mande pa lalwa a pou prèt ak Levit yo; paske Juda te rejwi de prèt avèk Levit ki te fè sèvis yo.
And in that day they appointed men over the treasuries, for the treasures, the first fruits, and the tithes, and [for] the chiefs of the cities who were assembled among them, [to furnish] portions for the priests and Levites: for [there was] joy in Juda over the priests and over the Levites that waited.
45 Paske, yo te ranpli devwa Bondye yo a, avèk sèvis pirifikasyon an, ansanm avèk chantè yo ak gadyen pòtay yo an akò avèk lòd David avèk fis li a, Salomon.
And they kept the charges of their God, and the charges of the purification, and [ordered] the singers and the porters, according to the commandments of David and his son Solomon.
46 Paske nan jou a David avèk Asaph yo, nan tan ansyen an, te gen dirijan pou chantè yo ak chan adorasyon yo, e kantik remèsiman a Bondye.
For in the days of David Asaph was originally first of the singers, and [they sang] hymns and praise to God.
47 Konsa, tout Israël nan jou Zorobabel avèk Néhémie yo te bay pòsyon ki te dwe fèt pou chantè yo avèk gadyen pòtay yo kon chak jou te mande a, e te mete apa pòsyon ki te konsakre a Levit yo; epi Levit yo te mete apa pòsyon ki te konsakre pou fis Aaron yo.
And all Israel in the days of Zorobabel, and in the days of Neemias, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, a daily rate: and consecrated them to the Levites: and the Levites consecrated them to the sons of Aaron.
