< Ezekyèl 43 >
1 Nonm lan mennen m' bò pòtay ki bay sou solèy leve a.
Then he brought me to the gate, even to the gate that looketh toward the east.
2 Rive la, mwen wè gwo limyè prezans Bondye pèp Izrayèl la k'ap soti bò solèy leve a, k'ap vini. Li fè yon gwo bri tankou bri lanmè ki move. Gwo limyè sa a te klere toupatou sou latè.
And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the east; and the sound thereof was as the sound of great waters, and the earth shone with his glory.
3 Vizyon sa a te parèy ak vizyon mwen te wè lè Bondye t'ap vini pou kraze lavil Jerizalèm lan, li te parèy ak vizyon mwen te wè bò larivyè Keba a. Mwen lage kò m' fas atè.
And the appearance was like the vision which I saw, like the vision which I saw when I came to destroy the city; it was a vision like the vision which I saw at the river Chebar. And I fell upon my face.
4 Gwo limyè a pase nan pòtay solèy leve a, li antre nan Tanp lan.
And the glory of Jehovah came into the house by way of the gate, whose prospect was toward the east.
5 Lespri Seyè a leve m' anlè, li fè m' antre nan ti lakou anndan an, kote mwen wè gwo limyè Seyè a te plen tout Tanp lan nèt.
Then the spirit took me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of Jehovah filled the house.
6 Nonm lan menm te kanpe bò kote m'. Mwen tande Seyè a pale avè m', antan li anndan tanp lan, li di m' konsa:
And I heard one speaking to me out of the house, and a man was standing by me.
7 -Nonm o! Men fotèy kote m' chita a! Men kote m'ap poze pye m' yo. Se la mwen pral rete nan mitan moun pèp Izrayèl yo pou tout tan. Ni pèp Izrayèl la ni wa yo p'ap janm fè sèvis pou lòt bondye osinon sou tonm wa yo ankò pou yo derespekte non m'.
And 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 sons of Israel forever; and the house of Israel shall no more pollute my holy name, neither they nor their kings, by their fornication, and by the dead bodies of their kings in their sepulchres;
8 Wa yo te konn moute poto kay yo toupre Tanp mwen an, yo te mete papòt yo toupre papòt Tanp mwen an. Konsa se yon senp ti miray ki te separe yo avè m'. Men, yo lage kò yo nan fè yon bann vye bagay derespektan. Yo trennen non m' nan labou. Se poutèt sa mwen te move sou yo, mwen fini ak yo.
in that they set their threshold by my threshold, and their post near my post, so that there was only a wall between me and them, and defiled my holy name by the abominations which they committed; wherefore I have consumed them in my anger.
9 Koulye a, se pou yo sispann fè sèvis pou lòt bondye, se pou yo wete kadav wa yo devan je m'! Si yo fè sa, m'a rete nan mitan yo pou tout tan.
Now let them remove far away from me their fornication, and the carcasses of their kings; and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.
10 Seyè a di m' ankò: -Nonm o! Fè moun pèp Izrayèl yo konnen ki jan Tanp lan pral ye. Fè yo kalkile plan Tanp lan byen. Fè yo wont tout vye bagay derespektan yo te konn fè yo.
And thou, son of man, show this house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities, and that they may measure the pattern.
11 Si yo wont tou sa yo te konn fè yo, w'a esplike yo plan Tanp lan: jan tout bagay ranje ladan l', kote pou yo pase antre, kote pou yo pase soti, fòm l'ap genyen, ansanm ak tout regleman ak lòd ki bay jan pou yo sèvi ladan l'. Kouche tou sa sou papye devan je yo pou yo ka wè jan tout bagay ranje, pou yo ka konfòme yo. Men lòd mwen bay pou Tanp lan:
And if they be ashamed of all which they have done, let them know the form of the house and the fashion thereof, and the passages for going out and coming in, and all the forms thereof, and all the statutes thereof, and all the laws thereof, and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the statutes thereof, and do them.
12 Tout zòn ki bò Tanp lan sou tèt mòn lan, se yon kote apa nèt pou mwen. Men lòd mwen bay sou Tanp lan.
This is the law of the house. Upon the top of the mountain, all within its limits shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
13 Men dimansyon lotèl la, dapre sistèm mezi nou sèvi pou mezire Tanp lan. Nan pye lotèl la, yon kannal vin pous pwofondè, vin pous lajè, ak yon rebò sou deyò dis pous wotè.
And these are the measures of the altar by cubits; each cubit being a cubit and a hand-breadth. The bottom shall be a cubit high and a cubit broad; and the border thereof, by the edge thereof round about, shall be a span; and this shall be the outer part of the altar.
14 Lotèl la ap fèt an twa pòsyon. Premye pòsyon an chita sou pye a. L'a gen kat pye wotè. Dezyèm pòsyon an va pi gwo, l'a gen sèt pye wotè sou premye pòsyon an, men longè l' ak lajè l' ap yon ti jan pi piti pou l' ka kite yon rebò vin pous chak bò sou tèt premye pòsyon an. Konsa tou, longè ak lajè dènye pòsyon an va yon ti jan pi piti pase dezyèm lan pou l' ka kite yon rebò vin pous chak bò sou tèt dezyèm pòsyon an.
And from the bottom upon the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.
15 Dènye pòsyon sa a va gen sèt pye wotè tou. Se sou li pou yo boule ofrann yo. Nan kat kwen yo te gen kat kòn, vin pous wotè.
And the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar upward shall be four horns.
16 Anwo lotèl la te kare kare, vin pye chak bò.
And the altar shall be twelve cubits long by twelve broad; square on the four sides thereof.
17 Pòsyon ki nan mitan an te kare kare tou, vennkat pye chak bò, ak yon ti rebò sou deyò, dis pous wotè. Ti kannal la te vin pous lajè. Macheskalye pou moute devan lotèl la te sou bò solèy leve.
And the ledge shall be fourteen cubits long by fourteen broad on the four sides thereof; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the bottom thereof shall be a cubit round about; and its steps shall look toward the east.
18 Seyè sèl Mèt la pale avè m', li di m' ankò: -Nonm o! Koute sa m'ap di, men sa mwen bay lòd pou yo fè: Lè n'a fin moute lotèl la, n'a mete l' apa pou mwen. N'a boule vyann bèt n'a ofri pou mwen yo sou li, n'a voye san bèt nou te touye yo sou tout lotèl la. Se konsa n'a mete lotèl la apa pou mwen.
And he said to me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: These are the statutes of the altar, in the day when it is made, to offer burnt-offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
19 Nan moun Levi yo se prèt ki soti nan fanmi Zadòk la ase ki pou parèt devan m' pou sèvi m'. Men sa mwen menm, Seyè sèl Mèt la, m' mande: N'a bay prèt sa yo yon jenn towo bèf pou yo ofri ban mwen pou mande padon pou peche yo.
To the priests, the sons of Levi, of the race of Zadok, that come near to me, saith the Lord Jehovah, to minister to me, thou shalt give a young bullock for a sin-offering.
20 N'a pran ti gout nan san an, n'a vide l' sou tèt kat kòn yo nan kat kwen lotèl la, sou kat kwen pòsyon mitan lotèl la ak sou tout rebò a. Se konsa n'a wete tout peche ki te antre nan fè lotèl la, n'a mete l' apa nèt pou sèvis mwen.
And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border round about, and thus cleanse and purge it.
21 N'a pran towo bèf yo ofri ban mwen pou mande padon pou peche a, n'a boule l' yon lòt kote byen lwen andeyò lakou Tanp lan.
And thou shalt take the bullock of the sin-offering, and it shall be burned in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.
22 Nan denmen, n'a pran yon bouk kabrit ki san ankenn enfimite, n'a ofri l' ban mwen pou mande m' padon pou peche nou yo. N'a mete lotèl la apa pou sèvis mwen ak san li, menm jan yo te fè l' lavèy ak san towo a.
And on the second day thou shalt offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin-offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bullock.
23 Lè n'a fin fè sa, n'a pran nan bann bèt nou yo yon jenn towo ak yon jenn belye mouton, tou de san ankenn enfimite.
And when thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
24 N'a mennen yo devan m'. Prèt yo va voye sèl sou yo. Lèfini, y'a boule yo nèt tankou yon ofrann pou mwen.
And thou shalt offer them before Jehovah, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and offer them up for a burnt-offering to Jehovah.
25 Chak jou, pandan sèt jou, n'a ofri yon kabrit, yon towo ak yon belye mouton ban mwen pou mande padon pou peche nou yo. Se pou tout bèt sa yo san ankenn enfimite. N'a pran yo nan tout bann bèt nou yo.
Seven days shalt thou sacrifice daily a goat for a sin-offering; they shall also sacrifice a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
26 Pandan sèt jou, prèt yo va fè seremoni pou mete lotèl la nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou mwen. Se konsa y'a pare l' pou li ka sèvi nan Tanp lan, y'a mete l' apa pou Bondye.
Seven days shall they purge the altar, and purify it, and consecrate themselves.
27 Apre sèt jou sa yo, prèt yo va konmanse ofri sou lotèl la lòt ofrann bèt pou yo boule nèt yo ansanm ak ofrann pèp la pou di Bondye mèsi. Se konsa m'a kontan ak nou. Se mwen menm Seyè sèl Mèt la ki di sa.
And when they have finished these days, it shall be that on the eighth day and forward the priests shall present your burnt-offerings and your thank-offerings upon the altar, and I will accept you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
