< 2 Chronicles 2 >

1 Then Salomon determined to builde an house for the Name of the Lord, and an house for his kingdome.
Wa Salomon te deside bati yon kay kote pou yo fè sèvis pou Seyè a, ansanm ak yon palè pou l' rete.
2 And Salomon tolde out seuentie thousand that bare burdens, and fourescore thousande men to hewe stones in the mountaine, and three thousand and sixe hundreth to ouersee them.
Li mete swasanndimil (70.000) moun ap travay pote materyo, katrevenmil (80.000) moun ap taye wòch nan mòn. Te gen twamilsisan (3.600) moun reskonsab kontwole travay la.
3 And Salomon sent to Huram the king of Tyrus, saying, As thou hast done to Dauid my father, and didst sende him cedar trees to buylde him an house to dwell in, so do to me.
Salomon voye misyon bay Iram, wa lavil Tir. Li di l': -Annou fè zafè yonn ak lòt tankou ou te fè avèk wa David, papa m', lè ou te vann li madriye sèd pou l' te bati yon kay pou l' rete.
4 Behold, I buylde an house vnto the Name of the Lord my God, to sanctifie it vnto him, and to burne sweete incense before him, and for the continuall shewbread, and for the burnt offrings of the morning and euening, on the Sabbath dayes, and in the new moneths, and in the solemne feastes of the Lord our God: this is a perpetuall thing for Israel.
Mwen pral bati yon tanp pou Seyè a, Bondye mwen an. Se pral yon kay n'ap mete apa pou li, kote n'a boule lansan pou li, kote n'a toujou mete devan l' pen y'ap ofri l' yo, kote chak maten chak aswè y'a ofri bèt pou yo boule nèt pou li lè jou repo yo, lè lalin nouvèl, ak lè lòt fèt nou fete pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan li te bay pou yo toujou fè l' nan peyi Izrayèl.
5 And the house which I buylde, is great: for great is our God aboue all gods.
Men, se pou tanp mwen pral bati a gwo anpil, paske Bondye nou an gen plis pouvwa pase tout lòt bondye yo.
6 Who is he then that can be able to buylde him an house, when the heauen, and the heauen of heauens can not conteine him? who am I then that I should buylde him an house? but I do it to burne incense before him.
Lèfini, ki moun ki ka rive bati yon kay vre pou Bondye, si syèl la, atout li gwo a, twò piti pou li? Mwen menm, kisa m' ye pou m' ta bati yon kay pou li? Se annik yon kote pou m' boule lansan pou li m'ap fè.
7 Sende me nowe therefore a cunning man that can worke in golde, in siluer, and in brasse, and in yron, and in purple, and crimosin and blue silke, and that can graue in grauen worke with the cunning men that are with me in Iudah and in Ierusalem, whom Dauid my father hath prepared.
Se konsa, voye ban mwen yon bòs ki gen ladrès pou travay lò, ajan, kwiv, fè, yon bòs ki konn koupe twal ble, twal violèt ak twal wouj, bòs ki konn travay bwa ak wòch tou. L'a travay ansanm ak bòs atizan mwen gen avè m' nan peyi Jida ak lavil Jerizalèm yo, moun David, papa m', te chwazi pou sa.
8 Sende mee also cedar trees, firre trees and Algummim trees from Lebanon: for I knowe that thy seruants can skill to hewe timber in Lebanon: and beholde, my seruantes shalbe with thine,
W'a voye ban mwen madriye sèd, bwapen ak bwa koray ki soti nan peyi Liban. Paske mwen konnen moun peyi ou yo konn pare bwa sa yo byen. M'a voye moun pa m' ede pa ou yo
9 That they may prepare me timber in abundance: for the house which I doe buylde, is great and wonderfull.
pou yo ka pare yon bon kantite bwa, paske se pou tanp mwen fè lide bati a gwo anpil, se pou l' yon bèl bagay.
10 And behold, I will giue to thy seruants the cutters and the hewers of timber twentie thousand measures of beaten wheate, and twentie thousand measures of barley, and twentie thousand baths of wine, and twentie thousand baths of oyle.
Men pwovizyon m'ap voye pou moun ou yo k'ap koupe pyebwa yo ak pou moun k'ap siye yo: sanmil (100.000) barik ble, sanmil (100.000) barik lòj, sandimil (110.000) galon diven ak sandimil (110.000) galon lwil oliv.
11 Then Huram King of Tyrus answered in writing which he sent to Salomon, Because the Lord hath loued his people, he hath made thee King ouer them.
Lè sa a, wa Iram ekri yon lèt voye reponn Salomon. Li di l' nan lèt la: -Se paske Seyè a renmen pèp Izrayèl la kifè li mete ou wa pou gouvènen yo.
12 Huram sayd moreouer, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, which made the heauen and the earth, and that hath giuen vnto Dauid the King a wise sonne, that hath discretion, prudence and vnderstanding to buylde an house for the Lord, and a palace for his kingdome.
Lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, li menm ki fè syèl la ak latè a! Paske li bay wa David yon pitit gason ki gen anpil bon konprann, anpil lespri epi ki veye tou sa l'ap fè, yon pitit ki koulye a fè lide bati yon tanp pou Seyè a ansanm ak yon palè pou tèt pa l'.
13 Now therefore I haue sent a wise man, and of vnderstanding of my father Hurams,
M'ap voye yon moun ki gen bon konesans ak ladrès ba ou. Se bòs Iram.
14 The sonne of a woman of the daughters of Dan: and his father was a man of Tyrus, and he can skill to worke in golde, in siluer, in brasse, in yron, in stone, and in timber, in purple, in blue silke, and in fine linen, and in crimosin, and can graue in all grauen workes, and broyder in all broydered worke that shalbe giuen him, with thy cunning men, and with the cunning men of my lord Dauid thy father.
Manman li se moun branch fanmi Dann. Papa l' se natif natal lavil Tir. Li konn jan pou travay lò, ajan, kwiv, fè, wòch, bwa. Li konn jan pou koupe tou twal fin wouj, ble ak violèt, ak twal lenn tou. Li konn grave tout kalite desen, li ka fè tout kalite travay ou mande l' fè. L'a travay ansanm ak bòs pa ou yo, ak bòs wa David, papa ou, mèt mwen an, te genyen.
15 Now therefore the wheate and the barley, the oyle and the wine, which my lorde hath spoken of, let him send vnto his seruants.
Koulye a, ou mèt voye ban nou ble, lòj, diven ak lwil oliv ou te di w'ap voye yo.
16 And we wil cut wood in Lebanon as much as thou shalt neede, and will bring it to thee in raftes by the sea to Iapho, so thou mayest cary them to Ierusalem.
Nou menm bò pa nou, nou pral koupe mezi bwa nan peyi Liban ou ka bezwen. N'a pote yo sou lanmè ba ou lavil Jope, n'a mare yo ansanm fè rado. Rive la, ou menm w'a fè pran yo pote moute lavil Jerizalèm.
17 And Salomon nombred al the strangers that were in the land of Israel, after the nombring that his father Dauid had nombred them: and they were found an hundreth and three and fiftie thousand, and sixe hundreth.
Lè sa a, Salomon fè konte mete sou lis tout moun lòt nasyon ki t'ap viv nan peyi Izrayèl la, menm jan David, papa l', te fè l' la. Li jwenn sansenkanntwamil sisan (153.600) moun.
18 And he set seuentie thousande of them to the burden, and fourescore thousande to hewe stones in the mountaine, and three thousande and sixe hundreth ouerseers to cause the people to worke.
Li pran swasanndimil (70.000) ladan yo pou pote materyo, katrevenmil (80.000) pou taye wòch nan mòn yo. Lèfini, li pran twamilsisan (3.600) ki rete yo, li mete yo fòmann reskonsab pou fè pèp la travay.
