Ezra 3
1 When the seventh month had come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
Alò, lè setyèm mwa a te fin rive e fis Israël yo te nan vil yo, pèp la, kon yon sèl moun, te reyini ansanm Jérusalem.
2 Then Jeshua the son of Jozadak stood up with his brothers the priests and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and his relatives, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings on it, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
Konsa, Josué, fis a Jotsadak la avèk frè li yo, prèt yo e Zorobabel, fis a Schealthiel la avèk frè li yo, te leve e te bati lotèl Bondye Israël la pou ofri ofrann brile sou li, kon sa ekri nan lalwa Moïse la, nonm Bondye a.
3 In spite of their fear because of the peoples of the surrounding lands, they set the altar on its base; and they offered burnt offerings on it to the LORD, even burnt offerings morning and evening.
Pou sa, yo te mete lotèl la sou fondasyon li, malgre yo te krent anpil akoz pèp a nasyon yo, epi yo te ofri ofrann brile yo sou li a SENYÈ a, ofrann brile nan maten ak nan aswè.
4 They kept the feast of booths, as it is written, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the ordinance, as the duty of every day required;
Yo te selebre Fèt Tonèl yo kon sa ekri a, e te fè fòs kantite ofrann brile ki te etabli chak jou yo, selon obligasyon chak jou ke òdonans lan egzije yo;
5 and afterward the continual burnt offering, the offerings of the new moons, of all the set feasts of the LORD that were consecrated, and of everyone who willingly offered a free will offering to the LORD.
epi apre, te genyen yon ofrann brile san rete. Anplis, pou nouvèl lin e pou tout fèt SENYÈ a ki te òdone e konsakre yo, e soti nan tout moun ki te ofri yon ofrann bòn volonte a SENYÈ a.
6 From the first day of the seventh month, they began to offer burnt offerings to the LORD; but the foundation of the LORD’s temple was not yet laid.
Soti nan premye jou nan setyèm mwa a, yo te kòmanse ofri ofrann brile a SENYÈ a, men fondasyon tanp lan potko poze.
7 They also gave money to the masons and to the carpenters. They also gave food, drink, and oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea, to Joppa, according to the grant that they had from Cyrus King of Persia.
Yo te vèse bay lajan a mason yo avèk chapant yo avèk manje, bagay pou bwè, lwil pou Sidonyen avèk Tiryen yo pou pote bwa sèd sòti Liban pou rive nan lanmè Japho a, selon pèmisyon ke yo te resevwa soti nan Cyrus, wa Perse la.
8 Now in the second year of their coming to God’s house at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all those who had come out of the captivity to Jerusalem, began the work and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to have the oversight of the work of the LORD’s house.
Alò, nan dezyèm ane a, depi yo te rive lakay Bondye Jérusalem nan dezyèm mwa a, Zorobabel, fis a Schealthiel la avèk Josué, fis a Jotsadak la avèk tout lòt frè pa yo, prèt yo avèk Levit yo e tout moun ki te vini soti an kaptivite pou rive Jérusalem, te kòmanse èv la e te apwente Levit yo ak laj a ventan oswa plis pou sipèvize travay lakay SENYÈ a.
9 Then Jeshua stood with his sons and his brothers, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together to have the oversight of the workmen in God’s house: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brothers the Levites.
Konsa, Josué avèk fis li yo ak frè li yo te kanpe ansanm avèk Kadmiel ak fis pa li yo, fis a Juda yo, fis a Hénadad yo avèk fis pa yo ak frè yo, Levit yo, pou sipèvize ouvriye nan tanp Bondye a.
10 When the builders laid the foundation of the LORD’s temple, they set the priests in their vestments with trumpets, with the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the LORD, according to the directions of David king of Israel.
Alò, lè ouvriye yo te fin poze fondasyon tanp SENYÈ a, prèt yo te kanpe ak vètman pa yo avèk twonpèt yo, e Levit yo, fis a Asaph yo, avèk senbal yo, pou louwe SENYÈ a selon enstriksyon a Wa David de Israël la.
11 They sang to one another in praising and giving thanks to the LORD, “For he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever toward Israel.” All the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised the LORD, because the foundation of the LORD’s house had been laid.
Yo te chante, te fè lwanj e te bay remèsiman a SENYÈ a. Yo te di: “Li bon, Paske lanmou dous Li sou Israël jis pou tout tan.” Epi tout pèp la te leve yon gran kri anlè lè yo te louwe SENYÈ a, akoz fondasyon lakay SENYÈ a te fin poze.
12 But many of the priests and Levites and heads of fathers’ households, the old men who had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice. Many also shouted aloud for joy,
Men anpil nan prèt yo avèk Levit yo avèk chèf lakay zansèt yo, ansyen granmoun ki te konn wè premye tanp lan, te kriye avèk yon gran vwa lè fondasyon a kay sila a te poze devan zye yo. Anpil nan yo te rele fò avèk jwa,
13 so that the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people; for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard far away.
jiskaske pèp la pa t kab distenge antre son lajwa ak son kriye a pèp la, paske pèp la te rele ak gran vwa e son lan te koute soti byen lwen.
