Chronicles II 31
1 And when all these things were finished, all Israel that were found in the cities of Juda went out, and broke in pieces the pillars, and cut down the groves, and tore down the high places and the altars out of all Judea and Benjamin, also of Ephraim and Manasse, till they made an end: and all Israel returned, every one to his inheritance, and to their cities.
Lè fèt la fini, tout moun pèp Izrayèl ki te la yo ale nan tout lavil pèyi Jida yo. Yo kraze moniman wòch yo, yo jete estati zidòl Achera yo, yo demoli dènye tanp ak lotèl kote yo fè sèvis pou zidòl yo. Yo mache fè sa nan tout peyi Jida a, nan peyi moun Benjamen, moun Efrayim ak moun Manase yo. Lèfini, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo tounen lakay yo nan peyi pa yo.
2 And Ezekias appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites, and the courses of each one according to his ministry, to the priests and to the Levites, for the whole burnt offering, and for the peace-offering, and to praise, and to give thanks, and to minister in the gates, [and] in the courts of the house of the Lord.
Apre sa, Ezekyas separe prèt yo ak moun Levi yo an gwoup ankò. Li bay chak gwoup lè pou yo pran sèvis yonn apre lòt. Nan chak gwoup, chak moun te gen travay pa yo pou fè lè y'ap boule bèt nèt pou Seyè a, lè y'ap fè ofrann pou mande Bondye padon, lè y'ap di Bondye mèsi, lè y'ap fè lwanj li, lè y'ap sèvi l' nan papòt Tanp Seyè a.
3 And the king's proportion out of his substance [was appointed] for the whole burnt offerings, the morning and the evening one, and the whole burnt offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the feasts that were ordered in the law of the Lord.
Apre sa, li pran nan bèt ki pou li yo li bay pou yo boule nèt pou Seyè a chak maten, chak aswè, pou ofrann jou repo yo, pou fèt lalin nouvèl ak pou lòt gwo jou fèt yo, jan sa ekri nan Lalwa Seyè a.
4 And they told the people who lived in Jerusalem, to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might be strong in the ministry of the house of the Lord.
Lèfini, li mande moun ki rete lavil Jerizalèm yo pou yo fè ofrann pou prèt ak moun Levi yo, pou mesye sa yo ka bay tout tan yo nan fè travay yo, jan Lalwa Seyè a mande l' la.
5 And as he gave the command, Israel brought abundantly first fruits of corn, and wine, and oil, and honey, and every fruit of the field: and the children of Israel and Juda brought tithes of everything abundantly.
Lè nouvèl la gaye, moun pèp Izrayèl yo pote premye sa yo rekolte nan ble, nan diven, nan lwil oliv, nan siwo myèl ak nan tout lòt danre jaden yo an kantite. Lèfini, yo pote yon dizyèm sou tou sa yo te genyen.
6 And they that lived in the cities of Juda themselves also brought tithes of calves and sheep, and tithes of goats, and consecrated them to the Lord their God, and they brought them and laid them in heaps.
Tout moun peyi Izrayèl ak moun peyi Jida ki t'ap viv nan lòt lavil peyi Jida yo te bay yon bèt pou chak dis bèf osinon kabrit ak mouton yo te genyen. Yo pote yon dizyèm nan tout bagay yo te mete apa pou Bondye, sèl Mèt yo a. Yo pote yo fè pil sou pil.
7 In the third month the heaps began to be piled, and in the seventh month they were finished.
Yo konmanse pote kado yo depi nan twazyèm mwa a rive sou setyèm mwa a.
8 And Ezekias and the princes came and saw the heaps, and blessed the Lord, and his people Israel.
Lè wa Ezekyas ak chèf li yo wè kantite bagay moun yo te bay, yo di Bondye mèsi, yo fè lwanj pou pèp Izrayèl la, pèp Bondye a.
9 Then Ezekias enquired of the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
Lè sa a, Ezekyas pale ak prèt yo ansanm ak moun Levi yo sou koze ofrann yo.
10 And Azarias the priest, the chief over the house of Sadoc, spoke to him, and said, From the time that the first fruits began to be brought into the house of the Lord, we have eaten and drunk, and left even abundantly; for the Lord has blessed his people, and we have left to this amount.
Azarya, granprèt la, moun fanmi Zadòk yo, di l' konsa: -Depi lè pèp la konmanse ap pote ofrann nan Tanp lan, gen kont manje pou moun manje. Lèfini, rete yon bon kantite, paske Seyè a beni pèp li a. Sa ki rete la a, se sa ki te anplis la.
11 And Ezekias told them yet farther to prepare chambers for the house of the Lord; and they prepared [them],
Ezekyas bay lòd pou yo pare kèk pyès nan Tanp lan pou sèvi depo. Lè depo yo fin pare,
12 and they brought there the first fruits and the tithes faithfully: and Chonenias the Levite was superintendent over them, and Semei his brother was next.
li fè mete tout sa yo te pran sou rekòt yo, tout ladim yo ak tout bagay yo te mete apa pou Bondye yo ladan yo. Yo mete Konanya, yon moun Levi, chèf reskonsab ak Chimèyi, frè li, pou adjwen.
13 and Jeiel, and Ozias, and Naeth, and Asael, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Samachia, and Maath, and Banaias, and his sons, were appointed by Chonenias and Semei his brother, as Ezekias the king, and Azarias who was over the house of the Lord commanded.
Yo chwazi dis moun pou travay sou lòd Konanya ak Chimèyi, frè li a, dapre lòd wa a ak Azarya, prèt reskonsab Tanp lan, te bay. Se te Jeiyèl, Azaryawou, Nakat, Asayèl, Jerimòt, Jozaba, Eliyèl, Jismakya, Makat ak Benaja.
14 And Core, the [son] of Jemna the Levite, the porter eastward, [was] over the gifts, to distribute the first fruits of the Lord, and the most holy things,
Kore, pitit Jimna a, yon moun Levi ki te chèf gad nan Pòtay sou solèy leve Tanp lan, te reskonsab resevwa kado moun yo te ofri pou Seyè a paske yo te vle. Se li tou ki pou te separe ofrann yo te fè pou Seyè a ak pòsyon yo te mete apa nèt pou Seyè a.
15 by the hand of Odom, and Benjamin, and Jesus, and Semei, and Amarias, and Sechonias, by the hand of the priests faithfully, to give to their brethren according to the courses, as well to great as small;
Nan lòt lavil kote prèt yo rete a, men moun ki te toujou la pou ede Kore: Se te Edèn, Menjamin, Jechwa, Chemaja, Amarya ak Chekanya. Se yo menm ki pou te separe manje a bay moun Levi parèy yo, gran kou piti, dapre travay yo gen pou fè.
16 besides the increase of males from three years old and upward, to every one entering into the house of the Lord, [a portion] according to a daily rate, for service in the daily courses of their order.
Non sèlman yo te bay tout moun Levi ki te gen non yo pote nan rejis fanmi yo, depi sa ki gen twazan laj pou pi piti, pòsyon manje pa yo, men yo te bay chak gwoup moun Levi ki te travay nan Tanp Seyè a chak jou, dapre jou travay yo ak dapre travay yo gen pou fè.
17 This [is] the distribution of the priests according to the houses of their families; and the Levites in their daily courses from twenty years old and upward [were] in [their] order,
Prèt yo te enskri dapre fanmi yo. Men moun Levi yo, depi sa ki gen ventan pou pi piti, te enskri dapre travay pou yo fè ak jou pou yo travay.
18 to assign stations for all the increase of their sons and their daughters, for the whole number: for they faithfully sanctified the holy place.
Yo tout te enskri ansanm ak pitit gason yo, pitit fi yo, madanm yo ak tout moun ki sou kont yo, pou yo te ka bay tout tan yo pou travay nan Tanp Bondye a.
19 As for the sons of Aaron that executed the priests' office, —even those from their cities the men in each several city who were named expressly, —[were appointed] to give a portion to every male among the priests, and to every one reckoned among the Levites.
Yo te chwazi moun tou pou mete reskonsab separe manje bay tout prèt yo, moun fanmi Arawon yo, ak moun Levi ki te enskri nan rejis yo epi ki t'ap viv andeyò nan vwazinaj lavil prèt yo.
20 And Ezekias did so through all Juda, and did that which was good and right before the Lord his God.
Se konsa Ezekyas te fè nan tout peyi Jida a. Li te fè sa ki byen, sa ki dwat ak tout kè li devan Seyè a, Bondye li a.
21 And in every work which he began in service in the house of the Lord, and in the law, and in the ordinances, he sought his God with all his soul, and wrought, and prospered.
Nan tou sa li te fè pou sèvis Tanp Bondye a, pou lalwa ak pou kòmandman Bondye yo, li te chache fè volonte Bondye ak tout kè li. Se poutèt sa tout bagay te mache byen pou li.
