Sie Chronicle 28

1 Tokosra David el sapkin tuh mwet kol lun Israel nukewa in toeni nu Jerusalem. Ke ma inge mwet kol ke sruf nukewa, mwet fulat su karingin oakwuk ac orekma lun tokosrai uh, sifen kais sie sou lulap, mwet liyaung ima ac kosro nutin tokosra ac wen natul — aok, mwet kol nukewa inkul sin tokosra, ac captain lun un mwet mweun, ac mwet fulat nukewa — elos tukeni nu Jerusalem.

And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies that ministered to the king by course, and the captains over the thousands, and captains over the hundreds, and the stewards over all the substance and possession of the king, and of his sons, with the officers, and with the mighty men, and with all the valiant men, to Jerusalem.

2 David el tuyak ye mutalos ac fahk, “Porongeyu, mwet wiuk ac mwet luk. Nga tuh kena musaela sie lohm tuh Tuptup in Wuleang in oakwuki we, su loangeyen nien LEUM GOD lasr. Ac nga akola tari in musai sie tempul in akfulatyal.

Then David the king stood up on his feet, and said, Hear me, my brothers, and my people: As for me, I had in my heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building:

3 Tusruktu, El tia lela nu sik in oru, mweyen nga sie mwet mweun ac yokla srah nga aksororyela.

But God said to me, You shall not build an house for my name, because you have been a man of war, and have shed blood.

4 LEUM GOD, su God lun Israel, El suleyula ac tulik nutik in tokosra fin mwet Israel nwe tok. El sulela sruf lal Judah tuh elos in mwet kol, ac liki inmasrlon mwet Judah El sulela sou lun papa tumuk. Na liki inmasrlon sou sac nufon El tuh insewowo in eisyu ac oru tuh nga in tokosra fin Israel nufon.

However, the LORD God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he has chosen Judah to be the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he liked me to make me king over all Israel:

5 El ase wen pus nutik, ac liki inmasrlolos nufon El sulella Solomon tuh elan leum fin Israel, tokosrai lun LEUM GOD.

And of all my sons, (for the LORD has given me many sons, ) he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.

6 “LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Solomon, wen nutum, pa ac musaela Tempul luk. Nga sulella tari tuh el fah wen nutik, ac nga ac fah papa tumal.

And he said to me, Solomon your son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

7 Nga ac fah oru tuh tokosrai lal in oan ma pahtpat el fin oaru na in akos ma sap luk, oana ke el oru inge.’

Moreover I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he be constant to do my commandments and my judgments, as at this day.

8 “Ke ma inge, mwet luk, ye mutun God lasr ac ye mutun walil se lun Israel inge, su mwet lun LEUM GOD, nga sap ku nu suwos tuh kowos in arulana karinganang ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD lasr El sapkin nu sesr, kowos in mau ku in mutana in acn wowo se inge, ac filiya tuh in mwe usru nu sin fwilin tulik nutuwos nwe tok.”

Now therefore in the sight of all Israel the congregation of the LORD, and in the audience of our God, keep and seek for all the commandments of the LORD your God: that you may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance for your children after you for ever.

9 Na el fahk nu sel Solomon, “Wen nutik, nga sap ku nu sum tuh kom in etu ac akilen God lun papa tomom, ac kulansupwal ke insewowo ac nunak pwaye. El etu nunak lasr ac lungse lasr nukewa. Kom fin sokol, El ac fah liyekomyang, a kom fin forla lukel, El ac fah siskomla nwe tok.

And you, Solomon my son, know you the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts: if you seek him, he will be found of you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off for ever.

10 Kom in akilen lah LEUM GOD El sulekomla tuh kom in musai Tempul mutal lal. Inge kom in orala, ac oru ke kuiyom nufon.”

Take heed now; for the LORD has chosen you to build an house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do it.

11 David el sang plan nukewa ke inkul lun Tempul uh nu sel Solomon — nu ke nien filma ac infukil nukewa saya, oayapa nu ke Acn Mutal na Mutal, su nien eis nunak munas ke ma koluk.

Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of the houses thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper chambers thereof, and of the inner parlors thereof, and of the place of the mercy seat,

12 El oayapa sang nu sel Solomon plan nukewa ma el oakiya nu ke likinum in Tempul ac lohm nukewa rauneak likinum uh, oayapa fukil in karinganang kufwen mwe orekma lun Tempul ac mwe sang ma kisakinyukla nu sin LEUM GOD.

And the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, of the courts of the house of the LORD, and of all the chambers round about, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated things:

13 David el oayapa sang nu sel oakwuk lal ke kunokon lun mwet tol ac mwet Levi, nu ke orekma lalos in Tempul, oayapa nu ke karinganang kufwen mwe orekma nukewa in Tempul uh.

Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD.

14 El fahkang pac lupan silver ac gold ma fal in sang orala ahlu ma ac orekmakinyuk ke pacl in alu,

He gave of gold by weight for things of gold, for all instruments of all manner of service; silver also for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of every kind of service:

15 oayapa nu ke kais sie lam ac sukan lam uh,

Even the weight for the candlesticks of gold, and for their lamps of gold, by weight for every candlestick, and for the lamps thereof: and for the candlesticks of silver by weight, both for the candlestick, and also for the lamps thereof, according to the use of every candlestick.

16 ac nu ke tepu silver, ac nu ke kais sie tepu gold ma bread kisakinyuk nu sin God ac fah oan fac.

And by weight he gave gold for the tables of show bread, for every table; and likewise silver for the tables of silver:

17 El oayapa fahkang lupan gold nasnas ma ac orekmakinyuk in sang orala fork, bowl, ac sufa, oayapa lupan silver ac gold in sang orek ahlu saya,

Also pure gold for the meat hooks, and the bowls, and the cups: and for the golden basins he gave gold by weight for every basin; and likewise silver by weight for every basin of silver:

18 ac lupan gold nasnas in sang orala loang in kisakin mwe kisa keng, oayapa chariot in us cherub uh su po sohksok lalos ac fah asrosrelik ac sunya Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD.

And for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubim, that spread out their wings, and covered the ark of the covenant of the LORD.

19 Tokosra David el fahk, “Ma inge nukewa oasr ke plan se ma simla fal nu ke ma LEUM GOD El sifacna akkalemye ac ase nu sik in tafwela.”

All this, said David, the LORD made me understand in writing by his hand on me, even all the works of this pattern.

20 Tokosra David el fahk nu sel Solomon, wen natul, “Kom in ku ac pulaik na. Mutaweak orekma an, ac nimet lela kutena ma in kutongya. LEUM GOD, su nga kulansupu, El ac fah wi kom. El ac fah tia siskomla, a El ac fah muta yurum nwe ke kom aksafyela orekma nukewa nu ke Tempul uh.

And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it: fear not, nor be dismayed: for the LORD God, even my God, will be with you; he will not fail you, nor forsake you, until you have finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.

21 Itukyang tari ma kunen mwet tol ac mwet Levi, ma elos in oru in Tempul uh. Mwet orekma ke kain sroasr nukewa elos akola in kasrekom, ac mwet nukewa wi mwet kol lalos elos muta ye sapsap lom.”

And, behold, the courses of the priests and the Levites, even they shall be with you for all the service of the house of God: and there shall be with you for all manner of workmanship every willing skillful man, for any manner of service: also the princes and all the people will be wholly at your commandment.
