Ezekyèl 42
1 Apre sa, nonm lan mennen m' nan gwo lakou deyò a. Li fè m' antre nan yon gwo batisman ki sou bò nò tanp lan, pa twò lwen kay ki sou bò solèy kouche Tanp lan.
Next the man sent me out to the outer courtyard on the north side, and he brought me to rooms in front of the outer courtyard and the northern outer wall.
2 Batisman sa a te gen sanswasantwit pye longè, katrevenkat pye lajè.
Those rooms were one hundred cubits along their front and fifty cubits in width.
3 Sou yon bò te gen yon galeri trannkat pye lajè ki fè wonn Tanp lan. Sou lòt bò a, te gen pave gwo lakou deyò a. Kay la te yon chanmòt twa etaj, chak etaj te pi dèyè pase etaj anba l' la.
Some of those rooms faced the inner courtyard and were twenty cubits away from the sanctuary. There were three levels of rooms, and the ones above looked down on the ones below and were open to them, having a walkway. Some of the rooms looked out onto the outer courtyard.
4 Pòt chanm yo te bay sou bò nò, yo te louvri sou yon koridò sèz pye lajè, sanswasantwit pye longè ki pase devan chanm yo.
A passage ten cubits in width and one hundred cubits in length ran in front of the rooms. The rooms' doors were toward the north.
5 Chanm ki te nan etaj anwo nèt la te pi fèmen pase chanm ki te nan etaj mitan an ak chanm ki te nan etaj anba nèt la, paske yo te bati plis sou dèyè.
But the upper halls were smaller, for the walkways took away from them more space than they did in the lowest and middle levels of the building.
6 Nan tout twa etaj yo, pyès ki te anwo nèt la te pi fèmen pase sa ki te nan mitan an ak sa ki te anba nèt la. Yo pa t' gen poto pilye pou sipòte yo tankou lòt kay yo nan lakou a.
For the halls on the third story had no columns, unlike the courtyards, which did have columns. So the highest level's rooms were smaller in size compared to the rooms in the lowest and middle levels.
7 Miray deyò Tanp lan, sou anba nèt, sou menm nivo ak premye etaj la, te gen katrevenkat pye epesè, ki vle di mwatye lajè gwo kay nò a.
The outside wall ran along the rooms toward the outer courtyard, the courtyard that was in front of the rooms. That wall was fifty cubits in length.
8 Anwo nèt, pyès yo te pran tout lajè kay la. Paske fasad devan kay la te gen sanswasantwit pye.
The length of the rooms of the outer courtyard was fifty cubits, and the rooms facing the sanctuary were one hundred cubits in length.
9 Anba chanm yo, sou bò solèy leve kay la, kote miray la konmanse a, te gen yon pòtay pou antre nan gwo lakou deyò a.
There was an entrance to the lowest rooms from the east side, coming from the outer courtyard.
10 Sou bò sid Tanp lan, te gen yon lòt gwo batisman tankou premye a, toupre gwo pyès ki sou bò solèy kouche Tanp lan.
Along the wall of the outer courtyard on the eastern side of the outer courtyard, in front of the sanctuary's inner courtyard, there were also rooms
11 Devan chanm yo, te gen yon koridò tankou pou kay ki sou bò nò a. Li te gen menm longè, menm lajè avè l', menm fòm, ak menm pozisyon pou pòt yo ak fennèt yo.
with a walkway in front of them. They were as the appearance of the rooms on the northern side. They had the same length and breadth and the same exits and arrangements and doors.
12 Te gen yon pòt nan chanm yo sou bò sid kay la ki louvri sou koridò nan pwent bò solèy leve a, kote miray la konmanse a.
On the south side were doors into rooms that were just the same as on the north side. A passage on the inside had a door at its head, and the passage opened into the various rooms. On the east side there was a doorway into the passage at one end.
13 Lè sa a, nonm lan di m': -De gwo kay sa yo, yonn sou bò nò, yonn bò sid, se chanm ki mache ak chanm yo met apa pou Seyè a. Se la prèt k'ap sèvi devan lotèl Seyè a manje ofrann yo mete apa pou Seyè a. Chanm sa yo fèt pou rete apa pou Seyè a tou. Se la prèt yo pral met ofrann yo met apa pou Seyè a, ofrann grenn jaden osinon bèt yo ofri bay Seyè a pou mande l' padon pou peche osinon pou peye pou sa yo te fè ki mal, paske kay sa a apa pou Seyè a.
Then the man said to me, “The northern rooms and the southern rooms that are in front of the outer courtyard are holy rooms where the priests who work nearest to Yahweh may eat the most holy food. They will put the most holy things there—the food offering, the sin offering, and the guilt offering—for this is a holy place.
14 Lè prèt yo fin sèvi nan Tanp lan, anvan yo soti nan gwo lakou deyò a, se pou yo ale nan kay sa a pou yo mete rad seremoni yo te gen sou yo pandan sèvis la, paske rad sa yo se rad ki apa pou Seyè a. Se pou yo mete lòt rad sou yo anvan yo soti nan zòn kote pèp la rasanble a.
When the priests enter there, they must not go out of the holy place to the outer court, without laying aside the clothes in which they served, since these are holy. So they must dress in other clothes before going near the people.”
15 Lè nonm lan fin mezire tout anndan Tanp lan, li soti avè m' nan pòtay bò solèy leve a, epi li mezire gwo lakou ki fè wonn Tanp lan.
The man completed measuring the inner house and then took me out to the gate that faced the east and measured all the surrounding area there.
16 Li pran baton pou mezire a, li pran mezi fasad ki bay sou solèy leve a. Li jwenn witsankarant (840) pye.
He measured the east side with a measuring stick—five hundred cubits with the measuring stick.
17 Apre sa, li mezire bò ki bay sou nò a, li jwenn witsankarant (840) pye tou.
He measured the north side—five hundred cubits with the measuring stick.
18 Apre sa, li mezire bò ki bay sou sid la, li jwenn witsankarant (840) pye.
He also measured the south side—five hundred cubits with the measuring stick.
19 Lèfini, li mezire bò ki bay sou solèy kouche a, li jwenn witsankarant (840) pye tou.
He also turned and measured the west side—five hundred cubits with the measuring stick.
20 Konsa, li jwenn miray ki te fè wonn tanp lan ansanm ak gwo lakou a te kare kare, witsankarant (840) pye chak bò. Miray la te sèvi pou separe sa ki te apa pou Seyè a ak sa yo pa t' mete apa pou Seyè a.
He measured it on four sides. It had a wall around it that was five hundred cubits in length, and five hundred cubits in width, to separate the holy from that which is common.
