< Ezra 6 >

1 Then King Darius gaue commandement, and they made search in the librarie of the treasures, which were there layd vp in Babel.
Se konsa wa Dariyis bay lòd pou yo fè chache nan tout depo kote yo te sere achiv yo ak trezò yo nan peyi Babilòn.
2 And there was founde in a coffer (in the palace that was in the prouince of the Medes) a volume, and therein was it thus written, as a memoriall,
Epi yo jwenn yon woulo papye nan fò Achmeta, yon fòtrès ki te nan pwovens Medi a. Men sa ki te ekri nan woulo papye a:
3 IN THE FIRST yeere of King Cyrus, King Cyrus made a decree for the house of God in Ierusalem, Let the house be buylt, euen the place where they offred sacrifices, and let the walles thereof be ioyned together: let the height thereof be three score cubites, and the breadth thereof three score cubites,
-Nan premye lanne rèy li, wa Siris te bay lòd sa a sou tanp Bondye a nan lavil Jerizalèm: Se pou yo rebati tanp lan pou l' ka sèvi kote yo ka touye bèt ak boule ofrann nan dife pou Bondye. Tanp lan va gen trant mèt wotè, trant mèt lajè.
4 Three orders of great stones, and one order of timber, and let the expenses be giuen of the Kings house.
Y'a moute miray yo an bwa ak wòch, yonn sou lòt, twa ranje wòch pou chak ranje bwa. Y'a pran lajan nan kès wa a pou peye tout depans ki va fèt pou travay la.
5 And also let them render the vessels of the house of God (of golde and siluer, which Nebuchadnezzar tooke out of the Temple, which was in Ierusalem, and brought vnto Babel) and let him goe vnto the Temple that is in Ierusalem to his place, and put them in the house of God.
Konsa tou, y'a renmèt yo tout veso an lò ak an ajan Nèbikadneza te pran nan tanp Bondye a lavil Jerizalèm pou l' te pote isit lavil Babilòn, pou tout bagay tounen nan plas yo nan tanp Bondye a lavil Jerizalèm.
6 Therefore Tatnai captaine beyond the Riuer, and Shethar Boznai, (and their companions Apharsecaie, which are beyonde the Riuer) be ye farre from thence.
Lè sa a, wa Dariyis voye repons sa a: -Pou Tatenayi, gouvènè pwovens lòt bò larivyè Lefrat la, Cheta-Boznayi ak lòt kòlèg yo ki otorite nan Afasak la. Pa pwoche bò tanp lan.
7 Suffer ye the worke of this house of God, that the captaine of the Iewes and the Elders of the Iewes may buylde this house of God in his place.
Kite yo travay nan tanp Bondye a. Se pou gouvènè pèyi Jida a ak chèf fanmi yo rebati tanp lan sou menm anplasman kote l' te ye anvan an.
8 For I haue giuen a commandement what ye shall doe to the Elders of these Iewes, for the buylding of this house of God, that of the reuenues of the King, which is of the tribute beyonde the Riuer, there be incontinently expenses giuen vnto these men that they cease not.
Okontrè, men ki jan pou nou boule ak chèf fanmi pèp jwif yo nan travay y'ap fè pou rebati tanp Bondye sa a: N'a pran lajan nan kès wa ki nan men nou an, ki vle di nan lajan kontribisyon n'a ranmase nan pwovens la, n'a renmèt yo kòb tout depans y'a fè, san wete senk, pou travay la pa rete.
9 And that which they shall haue neede of, let it be giuen vnto them day by day, whether it be yong bullockes, or rammes, or lambes for the burnt offrings of the God of heauen, wheate, salt, wine, and oyle, according to the appoyntment of the Priestes that are in Ierusalem, that there bee no fault,
N'a bay prèt Jerizalèm yo tou sa y'a bezwen pou fè ofrann bèt pou yo boule nèt nan dife pou Bondye ki nan syèl la. Chak jou, dapre sa prèt lavil Jerizalèm yo va di nou, n'a ba yo jenn ti towo, belye, ti mouton ansanm ak ble, sèl, diven, lwil y'a bezwen pou boule pou Seyè a. Pa pote okenn neglijans nan sa.
10 That they may haue to offer sweete odours vnto the God of heauen, and praye for the Kings life, and for his sonnes.
Konsa, y'a ka ofri sakrifis santi bon ki va fè Seyè a plezi. Y'a lapriyè pou wa a ak pou pitit li yo.
11 And I haue made a decree, that whosoeuer shall alter this sentence, the wood shall be pulled downe from his house, and shall be set vp, and he shalbe hanged thereon, and his house shalbe made a dunghill for this.
Men yon lòd mwen bay ankò: si yon moun refize fè anyen nan sa m' mande la a, y'a rache yon poto bwa nan kay li, y'a fè yon pwent li, y'a pèse moun lan pak an pak ak li. Pou kay li a menm, y'a fè l' tounen yon pil fatra, poutèt sa li fè a.
12 And the God that hath caused his Name to dwell there, destroy all Kings and people that put to their hand to alter, and to destroy this house of God, which is in Ierusalem. I Darius haue made a decree, let it be done with speede.
Se pou Bondye ki chwazi lavil Jerizalèm pou se la yo bati kay li a jete tout wa, kraze tout nasyon ki ta konprann pou yo pa koute lòd mwen bay la a, epi ki ta detwi tanp Bondye a ki lavil Jerizalèm. Se mwen menm, Dariyis, ki bay lòd sa a. Se pou yo fè sa mwen bay lòd fè a san wete san mete.
13 Then Tatnai the captaine beyond the Riuer, and Shethar Boznai and their companions, according to that which Darius had sent, so they did speedily.
Tatenayi, gouvènè pwovens ki lòt bò larivyè Efrat la, Cheta-Boznayi ak lòt chèf yo fè sa wa Dariyis te bay lòd fè a san wete san mete.
14 So the Elders of the Iewes builded, and they prospered by the prophecying of Haggai the Prophet, and Zechariah the sonne of Iddo, and they buylded and finished it, by the appoyntment of the God of Israel, and by the commandement of Cyrus and Darius, and Artahshashte king of Persia.
Chèf fanmi jwif yo menm rebati tanp lan san pwoblèm, avèk ankourajman Aje, pwofèt Bondye a, ak Zakari, pitit gason Ido a, t'ap ba yo ak mesaj Bondye yo. Se konsa yo fin rebati tanp lan jan Bondye pèp Izrayèl la te ba yo lòd la, ak jan Dariyis, Siris ak Atagzèsès, tou twa wa peyi Pès la, te ba yo lòd la tou.
15 And this house was finished the thirde day of the moneth Adar, which was the sixt yeere of the reigne of King Darius.
Travay la fini sou twazyèm jou nan mwa Ada a, nan sizyèm lanne rèy wa Dariyis.
16 And the children of Israel, the Priestes, and the Leuites, and the residue of the children of the captiuitie kept the dedication of this house of God with ioy,
Lè sa a, tout pèp Izrayèl la, prèt yo, moun Levi yo ak tout rès moun ki te tounen yo fè fèt, yo fè gwo seremoni pou mete tanp lan apa pou sèvis Bondye.
17 And offred at the dedication of this house of God an hundreth bullockes, two hundreth rams, foure hundreth lambes, and twelue goates, for the sinne of all Israel, according to the nomber of the tribes of Israel.
Yo ofri san (100) towo, desan (200) belye mouton, katsan (400) ti mouton pou yo touye pou mete tanp lan apa pou sèvis Bondye. Yo ofri tou douz bouk kabrit, yonn pou chak branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la, pou mande Bondye padon pou peche pèp la.
18 And they set the Priests in their order, and the Leuites in their courses ouer the seruice of God in Ierusalem, as it is written in the booke of Moses.
Apre sa, yo òganize sèvis tanp Bondye a lavil Jerizalèm. Yo separe prèt yo an divès kategori, yo separe moun Levi yo an divès klas, chak gwoup ak travay pa yo pou yo fè, jan sa ekri nan liv Moyiz la.
19 And the childre of the captiuitie kept the Passeouer on ye fourtenth day of the first moneth.
Katòzyèm jou mwa Nisan an, nan lanne senksankenz (515), jwif ki te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo a fete fèt Delivrans lan.
20 (For the Priests and the Leuites were purified altogether) and they killed the Passeouer for all the children of the captiuitie, and for their brethren the Priests, and for themselues.
Yo te fè yon sèl sèvis pou tout prèt yo ansanm ak tout moun Levi yo pou mete yo nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Yo tout te nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye: yo touye bèt yo te ofri pou fèt Delivrans lan, yo fè yon sèl seremoni pou tout pèp la, pou prèt parèy yo ak pou yo menm tou.
21 So the children of Israel which were come againe out of captiuitie, and all such as had separated themselues vnto them, from the filthines of the Heathen of the land, to seeke the Lord God of Israel, did eate,
Men moun ki te manje manje Delivrans lan. Se te tout jwif ki te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo a ansanm ak rès moun pèp Izrayèl yo ki pa t' janm kite peyi yo men ki te vire do bay vye bagay lòt moun yo t'ap fè nan peyi yo epi ki te vin mete tèt ansanm ak moun ki te tounen yo pou adore Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
22 And they kept ye feast of vnleauened bread seuen dayes with ioy: for the Lord had made them glad, and turned the heart of the King of Asshur vnto them, to incourage them in the worke of the house of God, euen the God of Israel.
Pandan sèt jou, yo fete Fèt Pen san ledven an ak kè kontan. Yo te kontan anpil dèske Seyè a te manyen kè wa peyi Lasiri a, ki te ankouraje yo anpil nan tout gwo travay yo t'ap fè a pou rebati tanp Bondye pèp Izrayèl la.
