Numbers 3
1 These are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the Lord spoke to Moses in mount Sinai.
Lè nou remoute nan tan Seyè a te pale ak Moyiz sou mòn Sinayi a, men moun ki te nan fanmi Arawon ak Moyiz.
2 And these the names of the sons of Aaron: his firstborn Nadab, then Abiu, and Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Men non pitit Arawon yo: se te Nadab, pi gran an. Apre li vin Abiyou, Eleaza ak Itama.
3 These the names of the sons of Aaron the priests that were anointed, and whose hands were filled and consecrated, to do the functions of priesthood.
Se yo menm Bondye te chwazi, li te ba yo pouvwa pou yo te sèvi l' prèt.
4 Now Nadab and Abiu died, without children, when they offered strange fire before the Lord, in the desert of Sinai: and Eleazar and Ithamar performed the priestly office in the presence of Aaron their father.
Men, Nabad ak Abiyou te mouri nan dezè Sinayi a, lè yo te ofri bay Seyè a yon dife yo pa t' gen dwa ofri ba li. Yo pa te gen pitit. Konsa, se Eleaza ak Itama ki te sèvi prèt ansanm ak Arawon, papa yo.
5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
6 Bring the tribe of Levi, and make them stand in the sight of Aaron the priest to minister to him, and let them watch,
-Fè moun fanmi Levi yo pwoche. Mete yo ansanm ak Arawon, prèt la, pou yo ka ede l' nan travay l'ap fè a.
7 And observe whatsoever appertaineth to the service of the multitude before the tabernacle of the testimony,
Y'a travay nan kay Bondye a, y'a fè tout kalite sèvis ki gen pou fèt pou Arawon ak pou pèp la devan Tant Randevou a.
8 And let them keep the vessels of the tabernacle, serving in the ministry thereof.
Yo va reskonsab tout bagay ki anndan Tant Randevou a. Y'a fè tout travay moun Izrayèl yo ta gen pou yo fè nan Tant Randevou a.
9 And thou shalt give the Levites for a gift,
W'a mete yo sou kont Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo. Wi, nan tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, w'a pran moun fanmi Levi yo, w'a mete yo sou kont prèt yo pou toutan.
10 To Aaron and to his sons, to whom they are delivered by the children of Israel. But thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons over the service of priesthood. The stranger that approacheth to minister, shall be put to death.
Men, w'a bay Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo reskonsablite tout travay prèt yo. Si yon lòt moun ki pa prèt ta konprann pou li fè travay prèt yo, se pou yo touye l'.
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' ankò:
12 I have taken the Levites from the children of Israel, for every firstborn that openeth the womb among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine.
-Gade non! Nan tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, mwen chwazi moun fanmi Levi yo. Mwen pran yo nan plas premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Se pou mwen yo ye.
13 For every firstborn is mine: since I struck the firstborn in the land of Egypt: I have sanctified to myself whatsoever is firstborn in Israel both of man and beast, they are mine: I am the Lord.
Paske, tout premye pitit gason yo se pou mwen yo ye. Depi jou mwen te touye tout premye pitit gason moun peyi Lejip yo, mwen te mete tout premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo apa pou mwen, ansanm ak tout premye ti mal bèt yo fè. Se pou mwen menm yo tout ye. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
14 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the desert of Sinai, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz nan dezè Sinayi a, li di l' konsa:
15 Number the sons of Levi by the houses of their fathers and their families, every male from one month and upward.
-Ou pral fè resansman tout moun Levi yo, dapre fanmi yo, dapre branch fanmi zansèt yo. W'a konte tout gason depi sa ki gen yon mwa depi yo fèt jouk sa ki pi gran yo.
16 Moses numbered them as the Lord had commanded.
Moyiz fè resansman an dapre lòd Seyè a te ba l' a. Li konte yo jan Seyè a te di l' fè l' la.
17 And there were found sons of Levi by their names, Gerson and Caath and Merari.
Men non twa pitit gason Levi yo: Se te Gèchon, Keyat ak Merari.
18 The sons of Gerson: Lebni and Semei.
Men non pitit Gèchon yo ak tout fanmi yo: Se te Libni ak Chimèyi.
19 The sons of Caath: Amram, and Jesaar, Hebron and Oziel:
Men non pitit Keyat yo ak tout fanmi yo: Se te Amram, Jizeya, Ebwon ak Ouzyèl.
20 The sons of Merari: Moholi and Musi.
Men non pitit gason Merari yo ak tout fanmi yo: Se te Makli ak Mouchi. Men non fanmi moun Levi yo, dapre non zansèt yo.
21 Of Gerson were two families, the Lebnites, and the Semeites:
Te gen de fanmi nan branch Gèchon an: Se te pitit Libni yo ak pitit Chimeyi yo. Se tout fanmi Gèchon yo sa.
22 Of which were numbered, people of the male sex from one month and upward, seven thousand five hundred.
Lè yo konte gason yo, depi sa ki te gen yon mwa depi yo fèt jouk sa ki pi gran yo, yo jwenn sètmil senksan (7.500) gason.
23 These shall pitch behind the tabernacle on the west,
Fanmi sa yo te rete dèyè kay Bondye a, sou bò solèy kouche.
24 Under their prince Eliasaph the son of Lael.
Se Elyasaf, pitit gason Layèl la, ki te chèf fanmi Gèchon yo.
25 And their charge shall be in the tabernacle of the covenant:
Se yo ki te reskonsab kay Bondye a, ak de tant ki kouvri l' yo, rido ki nan pòt devan Tant Randevou a,
26 The tabernacle itself and the cover thereof, the hanging that is drawn before the doors of the tabernacle of the covenant, and the curtains of the court: the hanging also that is hanged in the entry of the court of the tabernacle, and whatsoever belongeth to the rite of the altar, the cords of the tabernacle, and all the furniture thereof.
rido pou galeri ki fè wonn Tant Randevou a ak lotèl la, rido ki nan pòt devan galeri a ak tout kòd yo bezwen pou sèvi nan kay Bondye a.
27 Of the kindred of Caath come the families of the Amramites and Jesaarites and Hebronites and Ozielites. These are the families of the Caathites reckoned up by their names:
Te gen kat fanmi nan branch Keyat la: Se te pitit Amram yo, pitit Jizeya yo, pitit Ebwon yo ak pitit Ouzyèl yo. Se tout fanmi Keyat yo sa.
28 All of the male sex from one month and upward, eight thousand six hundred: they shall have the guard of the sanctuary,
Lè yo konte tout gason yo, depi sa ki gen yon mwa depi yo fèt jouk sa ki pi gran yo, yo jwenn witmil sisan (8.600) gason. Se yo ki te reskonsab kote ki apa nèt pou Seyè a nan kay Bondye a.
29 And shall camp on the south side.
Fanmi sa yo te moute kan yo sou bò sid kay Bondye a.
30 And their prince shall be Elisaphan the son of Oziel:
Se Elizafan, pitit gason Ouzyèl la, ki te chèf fanmi Keyat yo.
31 And they shall keep the ark, and the table and the candlestick, the altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary, wherewith they minister, and the veil, and all the furniture of this kind.
Se yo ki te reskonsab Bwat Kontra a, tab la, gwo lanp sèt branch lan, lotèl yo ak tout bagay ki sèvi nan kote ki apa nèt pou Bondye a, rido yo ansanm ak tout bagay ki mache avèk rido yo.
32 And the prince of the princes of the Levites, Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, shall be over them that watch for the guard of the sanctuary.
Se Eleaza, pitit gason Arawon, prèt la, ki te chèf tout chèf fanmi Levi yo. Se li ki te kontwole travay moun ki te reskonsab kote ki apa nèt pou Seyè a.
33 And of Merari are the families of the Moholites, and Musites, reckoned up by their names:
Te gen de fanmi nan branch fanmi Merari a: se te pitit Makli yo ak pitit Mouchi yo. Se tout fanmi Merari yo sa.
34 All of the male kind from one month and upward, six thousand two hundred.
Lè yo konte tout gason yo, depi sa ki gen yon mwa depi yo fèt jouk sa ki pi gran yo, yo jwenn simil desan (6.200) gason.
35 Their prince Suriel the son of Abihaiel: they shall camp on the north side.
Se Zouryèl, pitit gason Abikayil la, ki te chèf fanmi Merari yo. Yo te moute kan yo sou bò nò kay Bondye a.
36 Under their custody shall be the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars, and the pillars and their sockets, and all things that pertain to this kind of service:
Se yo ki te reskonsab ankadreman pou soutni kay Bondye a, travès yo, poto yo, sipò yo ak tout rido yo ansanm ak tout bagay ki sèvi ak yo.
37 And the pillars of the court round about with their sockets, and the pins with their cords.
Yo te reskonsab poto, sipò, pikèt ak kòd pou soutni galeri yo tou.
38 Before the tabernacle of the covenant, that is to say on the east side, shall Moses and Aaron camp, with their sons, having the custody of the sanctuary, in the midst of the children of Israel. What stranger soever cometh unto it, shall be put to death.
Moyiz, Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo te moute kay pa yo devan Tant Randevou a, sou bò lès. Se yo ki te reskonsab pou fè sèvis nan kote ki apa nèt pou Bondye a pou pèp Izrayèl la. Tout lòt moun ki ta konprann pou yo fè travay prèt yo, se pou yo touye yo.
39 All the Levites, that Moses and Aaron numbered according to the precept of the Lord, by their families, of the male kind from one month and upward, were twenty-two thousand.
Lè Moyiz ak Arawon te fè resansman moun fanmi Levi yo, chak fanmi apa, dapre lòd Seyè a te bay yo a, yo jwenn antou venndemil (22.000) gason, depi sa ki te gen yon mwa depi yo te fèt jouk sa ki pi gran yo.
40 And the Lord said to Moses: Number the firstborn of the male sex of the children of Israel, from one month and upward, and thou shalt take the sum of them.
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Pran non tout premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo, depi sa ki gen yon mwa depi yo fèt jouk sa ki pi gran yo. W'a konte konbe ki genyen.
41 And thou shalt take the Levites to me for all the firstborn of the children of Israel, I am the Lord: and their cattle for all the firstborn of the cattle of the children of Israel:
Se mwen menm ki Seyè a. W'a pran moun fanmi Levi yo, w'a mete yo apa pou mwen nan plas tout premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Konsa tou, w'a pran tout bèt ki pou moun fanmi Levi yo, w'a mete yo apa pou mwen nan plas premye ti mal bèt moun Izrayèl yo va fè.
42 Moses reckoned up, as the Lord had commanded, the firstborn of the children of Israel:
Moyiz pran non tout premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo, dapre lòd Seyè a te ba l' a.
43 And the males by their names, from one month and upward, were twenty-two thousand two hundred and seventy-three.
Li konte tout premye pitit gason yo, depi sa ki te gen yon mwa jouk sa ki pi gran yo. Li jwenn venndemil desanswasanntrèz (22.273).
44 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saving:
Apre sa, Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
45 Take the Levites for the firstborn of the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites for their cattle, and the Levites shall be mine. I am the Lord.
-Pran moun fanmi Levi yo, mete yo apa pou mwen nan plas premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Epi w'a mete bèt moun Levi yo apa pou mwen tou nan plas premye ti mal bèt moun pèp Izrayèl yo va fè. Konsa, tout moun Levi yo va pou mwen. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
46 But for the price of the two hundred and seventy-three, of the firstborn of the children of Israel, that exceed the number of the Levites,
Ou te jwenn te gen plis premye pitit gason nan pèp Izrayèl la pase te gen moun Levi. Te gen desanswasanntrèz (273) an plis. Men sa pou yo peye pou sove lavi desansousanntrèz premye pitit gason sa yo.
47 Thou shalt take five sides for every head, according to the weight of the sanctuary. A sicle hath twenty obols.
Pou yo chak, y'a bay senk pyès ajan, dapre sistèm lajan yo sèvi nan kay Bondye a: vin gara pou yon pyès ajan.
48 And then shalt give the money to Aaron and his sons, the price of them that are above.
W'a pran lajan yo peye pou sove lavi sa ki an plis yo, w'a bay Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo.
49 Moses therefore took the money of them that were above, and whom they had redeemed from the Levites,
Se konsa, Moyiz pran lajan yo te peye pou sove lavi premye pitit gason ki te an plis sou kantite moun Levi yo.
50 For the firstborn of the children of Israel, one thousand three hundred and sixty-five sicles, according to the weight of the sanctuary,
Li pran mil twasanswasannsenk (1.365) pyès lajan nan men premye pitit moun Izrayèl yo, dapre sistèm lajan yo sèvi nan kote ki apa pou Bondye a.
51 And gave it to Aaron and his sons, according to the word that the Lord had commanded him.
Apre sa, Moyiz pran tout lajan yo te peye pou sove lavi rès premye pitit gason yo, dapre lòd Seyè a te bay la, li bay Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo, jan Seyè a te ba li lòd la.
