Ezekyèl 43
1 Nonm lan mennen m' bò pòtay ki bay sou solèy leve a.
And he causeth me to go to the gate, the gate that is looking eastward.
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 lo, the honour of the God of Israel hath come from the way of the east, and His voice [is] as the noise of many waters, and the earth hath shone from His honour.
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 according to the appearance [is] the appearance that I saw, as the appearance that I saw in my coming in to destroy the city, and the appearances [are] as the appearance that I saw at the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.
4 Gwo limyè a pase nan pòtay solèy leve a, li antre nan Tanp lan.
And the honour of Jehovah hath come in unto the house, the way of the gate whose face [is] eastward.
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.
And take me up doth the Spirit, and bringeth me in unto the inner court, and lo, the honour of Jehovah hath 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 hear one speaking unto me from the house, and a man hath been standing near 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 saith unto me: 'Son of man, the place of My throne, And the place of the soles of My feet, Where I dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel to the age, Defile no more do the house of Israel My holy name, They, and their kings, by their whoredom, And by the carcases of their kings — their high places.
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 their putting their threshold with My threshold, And their door-post near My door-post, And the wall between Me and them, And they have defiled My holy name, By their abominations that they have done, And I consume them in Mine 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 do they put far off their whoredom, And the carcases of their kings — from Me, And I have dwelt in their midst to the age.
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.
Thou, son of man, Shew the house of Israel the house, And they are ashamed of their iniquities, And they have measured the measurement.
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 since they have been ashamed of all that they have done, The form of the house, and its measurement, And its outlets, and its inlets, and all its forms, And all its statutes, even all its forms, And all its laws cause them to know, And write [it] before their eyes, And they observe all its forms, And all its statutes, and have done 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] a law of the house: on the top of the mountain, all its border all round about [is] most holy; lo, this [is] a 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] measures of the altar by cubits: The cubit [is] a cubit and a handbreadth, and the centre [is] a cubit, and a cubit the breadth; and its border on its edge round about [is] one span, and this [is] the upper 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 centre of the ground unto the lower border [is] two cubits, and the breadth one cubit, and from the lesser border unto the greater border 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 [is] four cubits, and from the altar and upward [are] four horns.
16 Anwo lotèl la te kare kare, vin pye chak bò.
And the altar [is] twelve long by twelve broad, square in its four squares.
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 border [is] fourteen long by fourteen broad, at its four squares, and the border round about it [is] half a cubit, and the centre to it [is] a cubit round about, and its steps are looking eastward.'
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 saith unto me, 'Son of man, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: These [are] statutes of the altar in the day of its being made to cause burnt-offering to go up on it, and to sprinkle on it blood.
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.
And thou hast given unto the priests, the Levites, who [are] of the seed of Zadok — who are near unto Me, an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, to serve Me — a calf from the herd, 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 hast taken of its blood, and hast put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of its border, and on the border round about, and hast cleansed it, and purified 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 hast taken the bullock of the sin-offering, and hast burnt it in the appointed place of the house at the outside of 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 dost bring near a kid of the goats, a perfect one, for a sin-offering, and they have cleansed the altar, as they cleansed [it] for 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.
In thy finishing cleansing, thou dost bring near a calf, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and a ram out of the flock, a perfect one.
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 hast brought them near before Jehovah, and the priests have cast upon them salt, and have caused them to go up, 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 thou dost prepare a goat for a sin-offering daily, and a bullock, a son of the herd, and a ram out of the flock, perfect ones, do they prepare.
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 they purify the altar, and have cleansed it, and filled their hand.
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 the days are completed, and it hath come to pass on the eighth day, and henceforth, the priests prepare on the altar your burnt-offerings and your peace-offerings, and I have accepted you — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
