1 Chronicles 28
1 David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, the captains of the companies who served the king by division, the captains of thousands, the captains of hundreds, and the rulers over all the substance and possessions of the king and of his sons, with the officers and the mighty men, even all the mighty men of valour, to Jerusalem.
David mah Israel angraengnawk boih, acaeng zaehoikung, siangpahrang toksah misatuh angraengnawk, sangto hoi cumvaito ukkung misatuh angraengnawk, hmuenmaenawk boih khenzawnkung, siangpahrang hoi a capanawk ih hmuenmae khenzawnkung, siangpahrang imthung ah toksah angraengnawk, thacak kaminawk hoi misahoih misatuh kaminawk boih Jerusalem ah nawnto amkhuengsak.
2 Then David the king stood up on his feet and said, “Hear me, my brothers and my people! As for me, it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the LORD’s covenant, and for the footstool of our God; and I had prepared for the building.
David siangpahrang loe angdoet moe, Kam nawkamya hoi kaimah ih kaminawk, ka lok hae tahngai oh; aicae Sithaw khok koenghaih hoi Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong suekhaih im sak hanah poekhaih ka tawnh pongah, im sak hanah kam sak coek boeh;
3 But God said to me, ‘You shall not build a house for my name, because you are a man of war and have shed blood.’
toe Sithaw mah kai khaeah, Nang loe misatuh kami hoi athii palongh kami ah na oh pongah, Ka hmin hanah nang mah im na sah mak ai, tiah ang naa.
4 However the LORD, the God of Israel, chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever. For he has chosen Judah to be prince; and in the house of Judah, the house of my father; and amongst the sons of my father he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel.
Toe Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah, Israel siangpahrang ah oh poe hanah, kam pa ih imthung takoh boih thung hoiah kai hae ang qoih boeh; zaehoikung ah oh hanah anih mah Judah to qoih boeh; Judah imthung takoh thung hoiah kam pa imthung takoh to a qoih; kam pa ih capanawk thung hoiah kai hae Israelnawk boih ukkung siangpahrang ah ang paek.
5 Of all my sons (for the LORD has given me many sons), he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the LORD’s kingdom over Israel.
Ka capanawk boih thungah, (Angraeng mah kai hanah pop parai capa ang paek), Angraeng ukhaih prae ih angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnut moe, Israel to uk hanah ka capa Solomon to a qoih boeh;
6 He said to me, ‘Solomon, your son, shall build my house and my courts; for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.
Anih mah kai khaeah, Na capa Solomon mah ni kai ih im hoi longhma to sah tih; anih to ka capa ah ka qoih boeh pongah, kai loe anih ih ampa ah ka om tih.
7 I will establish his kingdom forever if he continues to do my commandments and my ordinances, as it is today.’
Vaihniah sak ih baktih toengah, ka paek ih loknawk hoi ka lokcaekhaihnawk to amkhraeng taak ai nahaeloe, a prae to dungzan khoek to ka caksak han, tiah ang naa.
8 Now therefore, in the sight of all Israel, the LORD’s assembly, and in the audience of our God, observe and seek out all the commandments of the LORD your God, that you may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you forever.
To pongah vaihi Israel kaminawk boih mikhnukah, Angraeng hmaa hoi Sithaw hmaa ah amkhueng kaminawk hmaa ah lok kang paek o; na Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih loknawk to pakrong oh loe pazui oh; to tiah nahaeloe hae prae kahoih hae na toep o ueloe, na caanawk hanah dungzan khoek to qawk ah na paek o thai tih.
9 You, Solomon my son, know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for the LORD searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.
Nang ka capa, Solomon, nam pa ih Sithaw to panoek ah loe, poekhaih boih hoi palungthin tang hoiah anih ih tok to sah ah; Angraeng loe kaminawk boih ih palungthin to pakrong, kami palung thung ih poekhaihnawk to panoek boih; anih to na pakrong nahaeloe, na hnu tih; toe anih to na caeh taak nahaeloe, anih mah nang to dungzan khoek to na pahnawt sut tih.
10 Take heed now, for the LORD has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary. Be strong, and do it.”
Vaihi acoe ah; hmuenciim im sak hanah Angraeng mah nang ang qoih boeh; na thacakhaih hoiah tok to sah ah, tiah a naa.
11 Then David gave to Solomon his son the plans for the porch of the temple, for its houses, for its treasuries, for its upper rooms, for its inner rooms, for the place of the mercy seat;
To pacoengah im sak han ih krang, impui, hmuenmae suekhaih ahmuennawk, tasa bang ih imkhaannawk, athung bang ih imkhaannawk hoi palungnathaih ahmuen sakhaih dan to a paek;
12 and the plans of all that he had by the Spirit, for the courts of the LORD’s house, for all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of God’s house, and for the treasuries of the dedicated things;
Angraeng im longhmanawk; ataeng ih imkhaannawk, Sithaw im ih hmuenmae pakuemhaih ahmuennawk, tathlang ih hmuennawk pakuemhaih ahmuennawk sakhaih dan to Muithla mah anih hanah paek boeh.
13 also for the divisions of the priests and the Levites, for all the work of the service of the LORD’s house, and for all the vessels of service in the LORD’s house—
Qaimanawk hoi Levi acaengnawk tapraekhaih, Angraeng im thungah toksakhaih, Angraeng im thungah patoh han ih laom sabae sakhaihnawk boih doeh a thuih pae.
14 of gold by weight for the gold for all vessels of every kind of service, for all the vessels of silver by weight, for all vessels of every kind of service;
Toksakhaih lah boih baktih toengah, to tiah toksak naah patoh han ih hmuen sak han kangaih sui hoi phoisa to tah moe, a paek;
15 by weight also for the lamp stands of gold, and for its lamps, of gold, by weight for every lamp stand and for its lamps; and for the lamp stands of silver, by weight for every lamp stand and for its lamps, according to the use of every lamp stand;
hmaithawk paanghaih sui tungnawk hoi hmai-imnawk sak hanah, kangai zetto sui to tah moe, a paek, to tiah hmaithawk tung hoi hmai-im maeto sak han angaih zetto phoisa to tah moe, a paek.
16 and the gold by weight for the tables of show bread, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver;
Takaw suekhaih sui caboi maeto sak han angaih zetto sui to tah moe, a paek baktih toengah, phoisa caboi maeto sak han angaih zetto sumkanglung to tah moe, a paek;
17 and the forks, the basins, and the cups, of pure gold; and for the golden bowls by weight for every bowl; and for the silver bowls by weight for every bowl;

18 and for the altar of incense, refined gold by weight; and gold for the plans for the chariot, and the cherubim that spread out and cover the ark of the LORD’s covenant.

19 “All this”, David said, “I have been made to understand in writing from the LORD’s hand, even all the works of this pattern.”
David mah, Angraeng ih ban ka nuiah oh pongah, hae hmuen sak han kamtueng krang, panoek thaihaih to ang paek, tiah thuih.
20 David said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous, and do it. Don’t be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD God, even my God, is with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you, until all the work for the service of the LORD’s house is finished.
David mah a capa Solomon khaeah, Thacaksak ah loe, misahoihaih hoiah tok to sah ah; zii hmah loe, palung doeh boengsak hmah; na Angraeng Sithaw, ka Sithaw loe nang khaeah oh; Angraeng ih im sak hanah tok pacoeng ai karoek to anih mah na caeh taak mak ai ueloe, toksak pacoeng ai ah omsak mak ai, tiah a naa.
21 Behold, there are the divisions of the priests and the Levites for all the service of God’s house. Every willing man who has skill for any kind of service shall be with you in all kinds of work. Also the captains and all the people will be entirely at your command.”
Khenah, qaimanawk hoi Levi acaengnawk loe Sithaw im toksak hanah, nang hoi nawnto om o tih; bantok sah kop kaminawk boih mah doeh, hmuen boih sakhaih bangah na bomh o tih; angraengnawk hoi rangpuinawk boih doeh na thuih ih lok baktih toengah om o tih, tiah a naa.
