< Ezekiel 43 >
1 Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks toward the east.
Nan lè sa a, li te mennen m nan pòtay la; pòtay ki gen fas li vè lès la;
2 Look, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shined with his glory.
Epi gade byen, glwa Bondye Israël la t ap vini soti nan chemen lès la. Vwa Li te tankou son anpil dlo; epi tè a te limen ak glwa Li.
3 It was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.
Epi se te tankou vizyon ke m te fè a, tankou vizyon ke m te fè lè Li te vini pou detwi vil la. Epi vizyon yo te tankou vizyon ke m te fè bò kote rivyè Kebar a; epi mwen te tonbe sou figi m.
4 The glory of YHWH came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.
Konsa, glwa SENYÈ a te vini nan kay la pa chemen pòtay ki te gen fas li vè lès la.
5 The Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and look, the glory of YHWH filled the house.
Epi Lespri a te leve m anlè e te mennen m antre nan lakou enteryè a; epi gade byen, glwa SENYÈ a te ranpli kay la.
6 I heard one speaking to me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
Nan lè sa a, mwen te tande yon moun ki t ap pale ak mwen soti nan kay la, pandan yon nonm te kanpe akote mwen.
7 He said to me, "Son of man, this is the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever. The house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their prostitution, and by the dead bodies of their kings in their high places;
Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, sa se plas pou twòn Mwen an, ak plas machpye Mwen an, kote Mwen va demere pami fis Israël yo jis pou tout tan. Lakay Israël p ap souye non sen Mwen an ankò, ni yo menm ni wa yo, pa zak pwostitisyon yo, e pa kadav a wa yo lè yo fin mouri,
8 in their setting of their threshold by my threshold, and their doorpost beside my doorpost, and there was but the wall between me and them; and they have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed: therefore I have consumed them in my anger.
lè yo te mete papòt pa yo akote papòt pa Mwen, poto pòt pa yo akote poto pòt pa Mwen. Te gen yon miray ki te antre Mwen ak yo. Epi yo te souye non sen Mwen an ak abominasyon ke yo te komèt yo. Pou sa, Mwen te konsonmen yo nan gwo kòlè Mwen.
9 Now let them put away their prostitution, and the dead bodies of their kings, far from me; and I will dwell in their midst forever.
Koulye a, kite yo mete akote zak pwostitisyon yo ak kadav a wa yo byen lwen Mwen. Konsa, Mwen va demere pami yo jis pou tout tan.”
10 "You, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.
“Pou ou menm, fis a lòm, bay detay a tanp lan a lakay Israël, pou yo ka wont de inikite yo; epi kite yo mezire plan an.
11 If they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and its fashion, and its exits, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its ordinances, and all its forms, and all its laws; and write it in their sight; that they may keep the whole form of it, and all its ordinances, and do them.
Si yo vin wont de tout sa ke yo te fè yo, fè yo konnen dizay kay la, fòm li, antre ak sòti li yo, dizay li, tout règleman ak tout lwa li yo. Ekri li devan zye yo pou yo ka wè tout dizay ak tout règleman li yo pou fè yo.
12 "This is the law of the house: on the top of the mountain the whole limit around it shall be most holy. Look, this is the law of the house.
“Sa se lwa kay la: tout espas toutozanviwon anwo mòn nan va sen pase tout kote. Gade byen, sa se lwa kay la.”
13 "These are the measurements of the altar by units of length (each unit is the standard eighteen inches plus three inches): the bottom shall be twenty-one inches, and the breadth twenty-one inches, and its border around its edge nine inches. And this shall be the height of the altar:
“Epi sa yo se mezi lotèl la an koude (koude ki se yon koude plis mezi yon pla men): baz la va yon koude, lajè a va yon koude e arebò sou akote a va anviwon yon anpan; epi sa va wotè a baz lotèl la.
14 from the bottom on the ground to the lower ledge shall be three feet five inches, and the breadth twenty-one inches; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be six feet eleven inches, and the breadth twenty-one inches.
Soti nan baz atè a pou rive piba ankadreman an, li va de koude, e lajè a va yon koude; epi soti nan pi piti ankadreman an pou rive nan pi gran ankadreman an, li va kat koude e lajè a va yon koude.
15 The upper altar shall be six feet eleven inches; and four horns project upward from the altar hearth.
Fou chofaj lotèl la va kat koude; epi soti nan fou chofaj la, kat kòn yo va monte anwo a.
16 The altar hearth shall be twenty-four feet one inch long by twenty-four feet one inch broad, square in the four sides of it.
Alò, fou lotèl la va longè a douz koude pa douz nan lajè, ak kare nan kat kote li yo.
17 The ledge shall be twenty-four feet one inch long by twenty-four feet one inch broad in the four sides of it; and the border about it shall be ten and a half inches; and its bottom shall be twenty-one inches around; and its steps shall look toward the east."
Ankadreman an va katòz koude nan longè, katòz nan lajè nan kat kote li yo, arebò li va mwatye koude a e baz li va yon koude toutozanviwon li; epi eskalye li yo va bay fas vè lès.”
18 He said to me, "Son of man, thus says YHWH: These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
Epi Li te di mwen: “Fis a lòm, konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: ‘Sila yo se règleman pou lotèl la nan jou ke li bati a, pou ofri ofrann brile sou li e pou flite san sou li.
19 You shall give to the priests the Levites who are of the offspring of Zadok, who are near to me, to minister to me, says YHWH, a young bull for a sin offering.
‘Ou va bay a prèt Levit ki sòti nan fanmi Tsadok yo, ki rapwoche de Mwen pou fè sèvis Mwen yo,’ deklare Senyè BONDYE a, ‘yon jenn towo pou yon ofrann peche.
20 You shall take of its blood, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border all around: thus you shall cleanse it and make atonement for it.
‘Ou va pran kèk nan san li, mete li sou kat kòn yo, sou kat kwen ankadreman an ak toutotou arebò a. Konsa, ou va fè l vin pwòp e fè ekspiyasyon pou li.
21 You shall also take the bull of the sin offering, and it shall be burnt in the appointed place of the house, outside of the sanctuary.
Ou va, anplis, pran towo pou ofrann peche a, e li va vin brile nan kote ki chwazi nan kay la deyò sanktiyè a.
22 "On the second day you shall offer a male goat without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bull.
“‘Nan dezyèm jou a, ou va ofri yon mal kabrit san defo kon ofrann peche, e yo va netwaye lotèl la jan yo te netwaye li ak towo a.
23 When you have finished cleansing it, you shall offer a young bull without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
Lè ou fin netwaye li, ou va prezante yon jenn towo san defo ak yon belye san defo ki soti nan bann mouton an.
24 You shall bring them near to YHWH, and the priests shall cast salt on them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering to YHWH.
Ou va prezante yo devan SENYÈ a; prèt yo va jete sèl sou yo e yo va ofri yo kon ofrann brile a SENYÈ a.
25 "Seven days you shall prepare every day a goat for a sin offering: they shall also prepare a young bull, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.
“‘Pandan sèt jou, ou va prepare chak jou yon kabrit kon ofrann peche; anplis, yon jenn towo ak yon belye san defo ki soti nan bann mouton an, va vin prepare.
26 Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and purify it; so shall they consecrate it.
Pandan sèt jou, yo va fè ekspiyasyon pou lotèl la e fè l vin pwòp; se konsa yo va konsakre li.
27 When they have accomplished the days, it shall be that on the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings on the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, says YHWH."
Lè yo fin konplete nonb de jou yo, li va rive ke nan uityèm jou a e kontinye, prèt yo va ofri ofrann brile pa nou an sou otèl la ak ofrann lapè nou yo. Konsa, Mwen va aksepte nou,’ deklare Senyè BONDYE a.’”
