1 Kings 9
1 Now it happened that, when Solomon had perfected the building of the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all that he had desired and had willed to do,
Lè wa Salomon fin bati Tanp Seyè a, palè wa a ak tout lòt bagay li te gen lide fè yo,
2 the Lord appeared to him a second time, just as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
Seyè a te fè Salomon wè l' ankò, menm jan li te fè l' wè l' lavil Gabawon an.
3 And the Lord said to him: “I have heard your prayer and your petition, which you prayed before me. I have sanctified this house, which you have built, so that I may place my name there forever, and so that my eyes and my heart will be there for all days.
Seyè a di l' konsa: -Mwen tande lapriyè ou la. Mwen mete tanp ou bati a apa pou sèvis mwen. Se la pou moun adore m' tout tan. M'ap voye je sou li, m'ap toujou pwoteje l'.
4 Also, if you will walk before me, just as your father walked, in simplicity of heart and in equity, and you do all that I have instructed to you, and you keep my laws and my judgments,
Si ou mache devan m' tankou David, papa ou, ak tout kè ou jan ou dwe fè l' la, si ou fè tout sa mwen mande ou fè, si ou koute lòd ak bon prensip mwen yo, m'a fè gouvènman ou lan kanpe fèm nan peyi Izrayèl la pou tout tan,
5 then I will set the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, just as I promised your father David, saying: ‘A man from your stock shall not be taken away from the throne of Israel.’
m'a kenbe pwomès mwen te fè David, papa ou la, lè m' te di l' ap toujou gen yon moun nan fanmi li ki pou gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la.
6 But if you and your sons, wandering, will have turned away, not following me, and not keeping my commandments and my ceremonies, which I have proposed to you, but instead you go away, and you serve strange gods and adore them,
Men, si ou menm osinon yonn nan pitit ou yo vire do ban mwen, si nou pa fè sa m' mande nou fè, si nou pa koute lòd mwen ban nou, si n' al sèvi lòt bondye, si n' al adore lòt bondye,
7 then I will take away Israel from the face of the land, which I have given to them. And the temple, which I have sanctified to my name, I will cast out from my sight. And Israel will be a proverb and a parable among all the peoples.
lè sa a, m'ap wete pèp Izrayèl la nan peyi mwen ba yo a. M'ap vire do bay tanp mwen te mete apa tankou kote pou yo fè sèvis pou mwen an. Moun toupatou va pase pèp Izrayèl la nan betiz, y'a fè chante sou li.
8 And this house will become an example: anyone who passes by it will be stupefied, and he will hiss and say, ‘Why has the Lord acted in this way to this land and to this house?’
Tanp sa a va tounen yon vye mazi. Tout moun ki va pase bò la va sezi, y'a met men nan bouch. y'a mande poukisa Seyè a fè peyi a ak tanp lan sa.
9 And they will respond: ‘Because they abandoned the Lord their God, who led their fathers away from the land of Egypt, and they followed strange gods, and they adored them and served them. For this reason, the Lord led all this evil over them.’”
y'a reponn yo: Se paske yo te vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye yo a, ki te fè zansèt yo soti kite peyi Lejip. Yo kouri al jwenn lòt bondye, yo fè sèvis pou yo, yo adore yo. Se poutèt sa Seyè a te voye malè sa a sou yo.
10 Then, when twenty years were fulfilled, after Solomon had built the two houses, that is, the house of the Lord, and the house of the king,
Wa Salomon te pran ventan pou l' bati tanp Seyè a ak palè wa a.
11 Hiram, the king of Tyre, having supplied Solomon with cedar wood, and spruce wood, and gold, in accord with all that he needed, then Solomon gave Hiram twenty towns in the land of Galilee.
Iram, wa peyi Tir, te ba li tout bwa sèd ak bwa pichpen ansanm ak tout lò li te bezwen pou l' fè travay la. Lè travay la fini, wa Salomon bay Iram ven lavil nan zòn Galile a.
12 And Hiram went out of Tyre, so that he might view the towns that Solomon had given to him. And they did not please him.
Iram kite peyi l', Tir, li desann al wè lavil Salomon te ba li yo. Men, li pa t' renmen yo.
13 And he said, “Are these the cities that you have given to me, brother?” And he called them the land of Cabul, even to this day.
Li di Salomon konsa: -Se lavil sa yo ou wè pou ou ban mwen, frè mwen! Yo pa vo anyen. Se poutèt sa, depi lè sa a rive jòdi a, yo rele zòn sa a Nan Kaboul.
14 And Hiram sent to king Solomon one hundred twenty talents of gold.
Iram te voye senk tòn lò an total bay Salomon.
15 This is the sum of the expenses that king Solomon offered for the building of the house of the Lord, and his own house, and for Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
Wa Salomon te fè moun fè kòve pou bati tanp Seyè a ak palè pa l' la, pou mete ranblè plen bò solèy leve lavil la ak pou bati gwo miray lavil la. Li sèvi ak moun kòve yo tou pou l' rebati lavil Azò, lavil Megido ak lavil Gezè.
16 Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, ascended and seized Gezer, and he burned it with fire. And he put to death the Canaanite who was living in the city, and he gave it as a dowry for his daughter, the wife of Solomon.
Lontan anvan sa, farawon an, wa peyi Lejip la, te moute atake lavil Gezè. Li pran l', li touye tout moun Kanaran ki te rete la, lèfini li mete dife ladan l'. Apre sa, li fè pitit fi l' la kado l' lè li te marye ak wa Salomon.
17 Therefore, Solomon built up Gezer, and lower Beth-horon,
Salomon rebati lavil Gezè, li rebati lavil Bètowon ki nan fon an,
18 and Baalath, and Palmira in the land of the wilderness.
lavil Balat ak lavil Tama nan dezè Jida a.
19 And all the towns which belonged to him, and which were without walls, he walled, along with the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and whatever was pleasing to him that he might build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in the entire land of his dominion.
Li rebati tout lavil kote yo te fè depo pwovizyon Salomon yo, lavil pou chwal li yo ak pou cha lagè li yo, ak tou sa li te vle bati ni lavil Jerizalèm, ni nan peyi Liban, ni nan tout lòt peyi ki te sou lòd li yo.
20 All the people who had remained of the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the sons of Israel,
Te gen moun Amori yo, moun Et yo, moun Ferezi yo, moun Evi yo ak moun Jebis yo.
21 their sons, who had remained in the land, namely, those whom the sons of Israel had not been able to destroy, Solomon made tributary, even to this day.
Lè moun Izrayèl yo te fin pran peyi Kanaran an pou yo, gen anpil nan moun ansyen mèt peyi a yo pa t' touye pou Bondye. Yo te kite yo rete nan peyi a. Se pitit moun sa yo Salomon te pran sèvi esklav pou fè kòve. Se sa k'ap fèt jouk jounen jòdi a.
22 But from the sons of Israel, Solomon did not appoint anyone at all to serve, except the men of war, and his ministers, and leaders, and commanders, and the overseers of the chariots and the horses.
Salomon pa t' fè ankenn moun nan pèp Izrayèl la sèvi esklav. Li te fè yo sèvi sòlda, ofisye, chèf, kaptenn ak kòmandan cha lagè yo ak kavalye yo.
23 Now there were five hundred fifty leaders in the first place over all the works of Solomon, and they had people subject to them, and these were given orders for the appointed works.
Te gen senksansenkant (550) fòmann gouvènè yo te nonmen reskonsab travay li yo. Se yo ki t'ap dirije moun ki t'ap travay yo.
24 And the daughter of Pharaoh went up from the city of David to her house, which Solomon had built for her. Then he built up Millo.
Pitit fi farawon an kite Lavil David la, l' al rete nan palè Salomon te bati pou li a. Se apre sa Salomon fè ranbleye pòsyon ki bay sou solèy leve a.
25 Also, three times each year, Solomon offered holocausts and victims of peace offerings, upon the altar that he had built to the Lord, and he burned incense before the Lord. And the temple was perfected.
Twa fwa chak lanne, Salomon te ofri bèt pou yo boule nèt pou Bondye ak ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi sou lotèl li te bati pou Seyè a, epi li fè boule lansan sou lotèl ki devan Seyè a. Se konsa, li te fè Tanp lan sèvi pou sa yo te bati l' la.
26 And king Solomon made a navy at Ezion Geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shores of the Red Sea, in the land of Idumea.
Wa Salomon te bati yon bann gwo batiman lavil Ezyongebè ki te toupre Elat, bò lanmè Wouj la, nan pòsyon tè ki pou Edon an.
27 And Hiram sent his servants to that navy, the sailors and those knowledgeable about the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
wa Iram te voye kèk moun peyi l' ki te bon maren pou sèvi ansanm ak moun Salomon yo sou batiman yo.
28 And when they had gone to Ophir, taking from there four hundred twenty talents of gold, they brought it to king Solomon.
Yo vwayaje rive peyi Ofi kote y' al chache sèz tòn lò pote bay Salomon.
