< Ezekiel 40 >
1 In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month—in the fourteenth year after Jerusalem had been struck down—on that very day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He took me there.
Nan venn-senkyèm ane egzil nou an, nan kòmansman ane a, nan dizyèm jou nan mwa a, nan katòzyèm ane apre vil la te fin pran an, nan menm jou sa a, men SENYÈ a te sou mwen e Li te mennen mwen la.
2 In visions of God He took me to the land of Israel and set me on a very high mountain, on whose southern slope was a structure that resembled a city.
Nan vizyon a Bondye yo, Li te mennen m nan peyi Israël, Li te depoze m sou yon mòn byen wo. Epi sou li vè sid te gen yon konstriksyon tankou yon vil.
3 So He took me there, and I saw a man whose appearance was like bronze. He was standing in the gateway with a linen cord and a measuring rod in his hand.
Konsa, se la li te mennen mwen, epi gade byen, te gen yon nonm ak aparans tankou aparans a bwonz, yon lign fisèl fèt ak len ak yon baton apantaj nan men l. Konsa, li te kanpe nan pòtay la.
4 “Son of man,” he said to me, “look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Report to the house of Israel everything you see.”
Nonm nan te di m: “Fis a lòm, wè ak zye ou e prete atansyon a tout sa ke m va montre ou; paske ou te vin mennen isit la pou m ta ka montre ou li. Deklare a lakay Israël tout sa ke ou wè.”
5 And I saw a wall surrounding the temple area. Now the length of the measuring rod in the man’s hand was six long cubits (each measuring a cubit and a handbreadth), and he measured the wall to be one rod thick and one rod high.
Gade byen, te gen yon miray sou deyò a tanp lan toutozanviwon, e nan men a nonm nan, te gen yon baton ki mezire sis koude. Yo chak te yon koude plis lajè a yon pla men.
6 Then he came to the gate facing east and climbed its steps. He measured the threshold of the gate to be one rod deep.
Konsa, li te ale nan pòtay ki te gen fas li vè lès. Li te monte sou eskalye li yo, e te mezire papòt pòtay la, yon ba kann nan lajè, epi lòt papòt la te yon ba kann nan lajè.
7 Each gate chamber was one rod long and one rod wide, and there were five cubits between the gate chambers. The inner threshold of the gate by the portico facing inward was one rod deep.
Chanm gad la te yon ba kann nan longè, e yon ba kann nan lajè, epi te gen senk koude antre chanm gad yo. Epi papòt pòtay la akote galri pòtay ki te ouvri pa anndan an te yon ba kann.
8 Then he measured the portico of the gateway inside;
Li te mezire galri a vè fas pòtay la pa anndan, yon ba kann.
9 it was eight cubits deep, and its jambs were two cubits thick. And the portico of the gateway faced the temple.
Li te mezire galri a pòtay la, uit koude, epi pilye akote li yo, de koude. Epi galri a pòtay la te vè kay la.
10 There were three gate chambers on each side of the east gate, each with the same measurements, and the gateposts on either side also had the same measurements.
Chanm gad a pòtay lès yo te twa nan kote sa a, ak twa de lòt kote. Toule twa nan de kote te gen menm mezi. Pilye akote yo te gen menm mezi a nan chak kote tou.
11 And he measured the width of the gateway entrance to be ten cubits, and its length was thirteen cubits.
Li te mezire lajè pòtay la, dis koude e longè pòtay la, trèz koude.
12 In front of each gate chamber was a wall one cubit high, and the gate chambers were six cubits square.
Te gen yon mi baryè yon koude lajè nan chak kote, epi chanm gad yo te sis koude kare nan chak kote.
13 Then he measured the gateway from the roof of one gate chamber to the roof of the opposite one; the distance was twenty-five cubits from doorway to doorway.
Li te mezire pòtay la soti nan twati a youn nan chanm gad yo, rive nan twati a lòt la, yon lajè a venn-senk koude soti nan yon pòt jis rive nan pòt a lòt anfas la.
14 Next he measured the gateposts to be sixty cubits high. The gateway extended around to the gatepost of the courtyard.
Li te fè pilye akote yo swasant koude wotè, epi lakou a te rive nan pilye yo jis li antoure pòtay la.
15 And the distance from the entrance of the gateway to the far end of its inner portico was fifty cubits.
Soti devan antre a pòtay, antre a pou rive devan galri enteryè a, te gen senkant koude.
16 The gate chambers and their side pillars had beveled windows all around the inside of the gateway. The porticos also had windows all around on the inside. Each side pillar was decorated with palm trees.
Te gen fenèt ki fèt ak gri ki te vizavi a chanm gad yo, nan pozisyon akote pilye yo ak pòtay ki te antoure yo a, e menm jan pou galri yo. Epi te gen fenèt toutozanviwon pa anndan. Epi sou chak pilye akote yo, te gen dekorasyon pye palmis.
17 Then he brought me into the outer court, and there were chambers and a pavement laid out all around the court. Thirty chambers faced the pavement,
Konsa, li te mennen mwen nan lakou eksteryè a, e gade byen, te gen chanm ak yon pave ki te fèt pou tout lakou a toupatou. Trant chanm yo te ouvri sou pave a.
18 which flanked the gateways and corresponded to the length of the gates; this was the lower pavement.
Pave a te akote pòtay yo, e te koresponn a longè pòtay yo, menm pave pi ba a.
19 Then he measured the distance from the front of the lower gateway to the outside of the inner court; it was a hundred cubits on the east side as well as on the north.
Epi li te mezire lajè a soti devan pòtay pi ba a pou rive devan pati eksteryè a lakou enteryè a, yon santèn koude nan lès ak nan nò.
20 He also measured the length and width of the gateway of the outer court facing north.
Jan pou pòtay lakou eksteryè ki bay fas vè nò a, li te mezire longè li ak lajè li.
21 Its three gate chambers on each side, its side pillars, and its portico all had the same measurements as the first gate: fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Li te gen twa chanm gad chak kote. Pilye akote li yo ak galri li yo te gen menm mezi ak premye pòtay la. Longè li te senkant koude e lajè a te venn-senk koude.
22 Its windows, portico, and palm trees had the same measurements as those of the gate facing east. Seven steps led up to it, with its portico opposite them.
Fenèt li yo, galri li yo ak dekorasyon pye palmis li yo te gen menm mezi ak pòtay ki te bay fas vè lès la. Epi li te vin jwenn pa sèt mach eskalye yo, e galri li te devan yo.
23 There was a gate to the inner court facing the north gate, just as there was on the east. He measured the distance from gateway to gateway to be a hundred cubits.
Lakou enteryè a te gen yon pòtay anfas pòtay nan nò a, menm jan ak pòtay nan lès la. Li te mezire san koude soti nan yon pòtay a yon pòtay.
24 Then he led me to the south side, and I saw a gateway facing south. He measured its side pillars and portico, and they had the same measurements as the others.
Nan lè sa a, li te mennen m vè sid e gade byen, te gen yon pòtay vè sid la. Li te mezire pilye akote li yo ak galri li yo selon menm mezi sila yo.
25 Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around, like the other windows. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Pòtay ak galri li yo te gen fenèt toutotou tankou lòt fenèt yo. Longè la te senkant koude e lajè a te venn-senk koude.
26 Seven steps led up to it, and its portico was opposite them; it had palm trees on its side pillars, one on each side.
Te gen sèt machpye ki t ap monte vè li e galri li yo te devan yo. Li te gen dekorasyon pye palmis yo sou pilye akote yo, youn nan chak kote.
27 The inner court also had a gate facing south, and he measured the distance from gateway to gateway toward the south to be a hundred cubits.
Lakou enteryè a te gen yon pòtay vè sid. Li te mezire de pòtay a pòtay vè sid, san koude.
28 Next he brought me into the inner court through the south gate, and he measured the south gate; it had the same measurements as the others.
Epi li te mennen m nan lakou enteryè a pa pòtay sid la, e li te mezire pòtay sid la selon menm mezi yo.
29 Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the same measurements as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around; it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Chanm gad li yo tou, pilye akote li yo ak galri li yo tout selon menm mezi yo. Epi te gen fenèt nan li ak galri yo ki te antoure l toupatou. Li te senkant koude nan longè e venn-senk koude nan lajè.
30 (The porticoes around the inner court were twenty-five cubits long and five cubits deep.)
Te gen galri yo toupatou, venn-senk koude longè e senk koude lajè.
31 Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees. Eight steps led up to it.
Galri li yo te vè lakou eksteryè a. Dekorasyon pye palmis yo te sou pilye akote li yo e eskalye li a te gen uit machpye.
32 And he brought me to the inner court on the east side, and he measured the gateway; it had the same measurements as the others.
Li te mennen m nan lakou enteryè a vè lès. Li te mezire pòtay la selon menm mezi sila yo.
33 Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the same measurements as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Chanm gad li yo tou, pilye akote li yo ak galri li yo te selon menm mezi sa yo. Pòtay ak galri li yo te gen fenèt toutotou. Li te senkant koude nan longè e venn-senk koude nan lajè.
34 Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees on each side. Eight steps led up to it.
Galri li yo te vè lakou eksteryè a. Dekorasyon pye palmis yo te sou pilye akote li yo e eskalye a te gen uit machpye.
35 Then he brought me to the north gate and measured it. It had the same measurements as the others,
Ankò, li te mennen mwen antre nan pòtay nò a. Li te mezire li selon menm mezi yo—
36 as did its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico. It also had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
avèk chanm gad li yo, pliye akote li yo ak galri li yo. Pòtay la te gen fenèt toutotou. Longè a te senkant koude e lajè a te venn-senk koude.
37 Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees on each side. Eight steps led up to it.
Pilye akote li yo te vè lakou eksteryè a. Dekorasyon pye palmis yo te sou pilye akote li yo, youn sou chak kote. Eskalye li a te gen uit machpye.
38 There was a chamber with a doorway by the portico in each of the inner gateways. There the burnt offering was to be washed.
Yon chanm ak pòtay li te bò pilye nan pòtay yo. La, yo te lave ofrann brile yo.
39 Inside the portico of the gateway were two tables on each side, on which the burnt offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings were to be slaughtered.
Nan galri pòtay la, te gen de tab nan chak kote, tab sou sila yo te touye ofrann brile yo, ofrann peche yo ak ofrann koupabilite a.
40 Outside, as one goes up to the entrance of the north gateway, there were two tables on one side and two more tables on the other side of the gate’s portico.
Sou kote deyò a, pandan yon moun t ap monte vè pòtay nò a, te gen de tab, epi sou lòt kote galri pòtay la, te gen de tab.
41 So there were four tables inside the gateway and four outside—eight tables in all—on which the sacrifices were to be slaughtered.
Kat tab te nan chak kote touprè pòtay la, ki fè uit tab antou sou sila yo te touye sakrifis yo.
42 There were also four tables of dressed stone for the burnt offering, each a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit high. On these were placed the utensils used to slaughter the burnt offerings and the other sacrifices.
Pou ofrann brile yo, te gen kat tab an wòch taye, yon koude edmi nan longè, yon koude edmi nan lajè e yon koude nan wotè, tab sou sila yo poze enstriman avèk sila yo touye ofrann brile ak sakrifis la.
43 The double-pronged hooks, each a handbreadth long, were fastened all around the inside of the room, and the flesh of the offering was to be placed on the tables.
Kwòk yo, longè a yon pla Men te enstale toupatou nan kay la. Sou tab yo, yo te mete chè ofrann nan.
44 Outside the inner gate, within the inner court, were two chambers, one beside the north gate and facing south, and another beside the south gate and facing north.
Soti deyò jis rive nan pòtay enteryè a, se te chanm pou chantè nan lakou enteryè yo. Youn nan sila yo te akote pòtay nò a, ak fas li vè sid ak youn akote pòtay sid la, ak fas li vè nò.
45 Then the man said to me: “The chamber that faces south is for the priests who keep charge of the temple,
Li te di mwen: “Sa se chanm ki bay fas vè sid la, ki pou prèt ki responsab lokipe tanp yo.
46 and the chamber that faces north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, the only Levites who may approach the LORD to minister before Him.”
Men chanm ki bay fas vè nò a se pou prèt ki responsab okipe lotèl yo. Sila yo se fis a Tsadok yo, ki soti nan fis a Levi ki vin rapwoche yo de SENYÈ a pou fè sèvis Li.”
47 Next he measured the court. It was square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide. And the altar was in front of the temple.
Li te mezire lakou a, an fòm kare nèt, san koude nan longè pa san koude nan lajè. Epi lotèl la te devan tanp lan.
48 Then he brought me to the portico of the temple and measured the side pillars of the portico to be five cubits on each side. The width of the gateway was fourteen cubits and its sidewalls were three cubits on either side.
Nan lè sa a, li te mennen m nan galri a tanp lan e li te mezire chak kote pilye a galri a, senk koude nan chak kote. Lajè a pòtay la te twa koude nan chak kote.
49 The portico was twenty cubits wide and twelve cubits deep, and ten steps led up to it. There were columns by the side pillars, one on each side.
Longè a galeri a te ven koude e lajè a te onz koude. Vè eskalye pa sila li ta ka monte a, te gen kolòn ki te apatyen a pilye akote yo, youn nan chak kote.
