Ezekyèl 40
1 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.
In the twenty-fifth year of our captivity at the beginning of the year on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was captured—on that same day, the hand of Yahweh was upon me and he took me there.
2 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.
In visions from God he brought me to the land of Israel. He brought me to rest on a very high mountain; to the south were what appeared to be buildings of a city.
3 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.
Then he brought me there. Behold, a man! His appearance was like the appearance of bronze. A linen cord and a measuring stick were in his hand, and he stood in the city gate.
4 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.”
The man said to me, “Son of man, look with your eyes and listen with your ears, and fix your mind on all that I am revealing to you, for you were brought here so I could reveal them to you. Report everything that you will see to the house of Israel.”
5 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.
There was a wall surrounding the temple area. The length of the measuring stick in the man's hand was six long cubits. Each long cubit was a cubit and a handbreadth in length. So he measured the wall, and it was one measuring stick thick and one rod high.
6 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.
Then he went to the temple gate that faced east. He went up its steps and measured the threshold of the gate—one stick in depth.
7 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.
The guard chambers were each one stick in length and one stick in width; there were five cubits between any two of the chambers, and the threshold of the temple gate by the temple portico was one stick deep.
8 Li te mezire galri a vè fas pòtay la pa anndan, yon ba kann.
He measured the portico of the gate; it was one stick in length.
9 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.
He measured the portico of the gate. It was one stick deep. The doorposts were two cubits in width. This was the portico of the gate facing the temple.
10 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.
There were three guard chambers on either side of the east gate, and each of them had the same measurement, and the walls that separated them had the same measurement.
11 Li te mezire lajè pòtay la, dis koude e longè pòtay la, trèz koude.
Then the man measured the width of the gateway entrance—ten cubits; and he measured the length of the gateway entrance—thirteen cubits.
12 Te gen yon mi baryè yon koude lajè nan chak kote, epi chanm gad yo te sis koude kare nan chak kote.
He measured the wall that was bordering the front of the chambers—one cubit high. The chambers measured six cubits on each side.
13 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.
Then he measured the gateway from the roof of one chamber to that of the next chamber—twenty-five cubits, from the entrance of the first chamber to that of the second.
14 Li te fè pilye akote yo swasant koude wotè, epi lakou a te rive nan pilye yo jis li antoure pòtay la.
Then he measured the wall that went between the guard chambers—sixty cubits in length; he measured as far as the gate's portico.
15 Soti devan antre a pòtay, antre a pou rive devan galri enteryè a, te gen senkant koude.
The entrance from the front of the gate to the other end of the gate's portico was fifty cubits.
16 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.
There were closed windows toward the chambers and toward their pillars within the gates all around; and likewise for the porches. The were windows all around the inside, and each jamb was decorated with palm trees.
17 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.
Then the man brought me to the outer courtyard of the temple. Behold, there were rooms, and there was pavement in the courtyard, with thirty rooms next to the pavement.
18 Pave a te akote pòtay yo, e te koresponn a longè pòtay yo, menm pave pi ba a.
The pavement went up to the side of the gates, and its width was the same as the gates' length. This was the lower pavement.
19 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.
Then the man measured the distance from the front of the lower gate to the front of the inner gate; it was one hundred cubits on the east side, and the same on the north side.
20 Jan pou pòtay lakou eksteryè ki bay fas vè nò a, li te mezire longè li ak lajè li.
Then he measured the length and width of the gate that was at the north of the outer court.
21 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.
There were three chambers on either side of that gate, and the gate and its portico measured the same as the main gate—fifty cubits in total length and twenty-five cubits in width.
22 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.
Its windows, portico, chambers, and its palm trees corresponded to the gate that faced east. Seven steps went up to it and to its portico.
23 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.
There was a gate to the inner courtyard in front of the gate facing north, just as also there was a gate to the east; the man measured from one gate to the other gate—one hundred cubits in distance.
24 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.
Next the man brought me to the gate of the southern entrance, and its walls and portico measured the same as the other outer gates.
25 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.
There were closed windows in the gateway and its portico just as at that gate. The south gate and its portico measured fifty cubits in length and twenty-five cubits in width.
26 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.
There were seven steps up to the gate and its portico, and there were carvings of palm trees on the walls on either side.
27 Lakou enteryè a te gen yon pòtay vè sid. Li te mezire de pòtay a pòtay vè sid, san koude.
There was a gate to the inner courtyard on the southern side, and the man measured from that gate to the gate of the south entrance—one hundred cubits in distance.
28 Epi li te mennen m nan lakou enteryè a pa pòtay sid la, e li te mezire pòtay sid la selon menm mezi yo.
Then the man brought me to the inner courtyard by way of its southern gate, which had the same measurements as the other gates.
29 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.
Its chambers, walls, and porticos measured the same as the other gates; there were windows all around in the portico. The inner gate and its portico measured fifty cubits in length and twenty-five cubits in width.
30 Te gen galri yo toupatou, venn-senk koude longè e senk koude lajè.
There were also porticos all around the inner wall; these were twenty-five cubits in length and five cubits in width.
31 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.
This portico faced the outer courtyard with carved palm trees on its walls and eight steps going up to it.
32 Li te mennen m nan lakou enteryè a vè lès. Li te mezire pòtay la selon menm mezi sila yo.
Then the man brought me to the inner courtyard by the eastern way and measured the gate, which had the same measurements as the other gates.
33 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.
Its chambers, walls, and portico measured the same as the other gates, and there were windows all around. The inner gate and its portico measured fifty cubits in length and twenty-five cubits in width.
34 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.
Its portico faced the outer courtyard; it had palm trees on either side of it and eight steps going up it.
35 Ankò, li te mennen mwen antre nan pòtay nò a. Li te mezire li selon menm mezi yo—
Next the man brought me to the northern gate and measured it; it measured the same as the other gates.
36 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.
Its chambers, walls, and portico measured the same as the other gates, and there were windows all around. The gateway and its portico measured fifty cubits in length and twenty-five cubits in width.
37 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.
Its portico faced the outer courtyard; it had palm trees on either side of it and eight steps going up it.
38 Yon chanm ak pòtay li te bò pilye nan pòtay yo. La, yo te lave ofrann brile yo.
There was a room with a door by each of the inner gateways. This was where they rinsed the burnt offerings.
39 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.
There were two tables on each side of each portico, on which the burnt offering was slaughtered, and also the sin offering and the guilt offering.
40 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.
By the wall of the courtyard, going up to the gate to the north, there were two tables. Also on the other side there were two tables at the gate's portico.
41 Kat tab te nan chak kote touprè pòtay la, ki fè uit tab antou sou sila yo te touye sakrifis yo.
There were four tables on either side by the gate; they slaughtered animals on the eight tables.
42 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.
There were four tables of cut stone for the burnt offerings, one and a half cubits in length, one and a half cubits in width, and one cubit tall. On them they laid the tools with which they slaughtered the burnt offerings for the sacrifices.
43 Kwòk yo, longè a yon pla Men te enstale toupatou nan kay la. Sou tab yo, yo te mete chè ofrann nan.
Two-pronged hooks a handbreadth in length were fastened in the portico all around, and the flesh of the offerings would be put on the tables.
44 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.
On the outside of the inner gate, within the inner courtyard, were singers' chambers, one on the north side facing south, and the other on the south side facing north.
45 Li te di mwen: “Sa se chanm ki bay fas vè sid la, ki pou prèt ki responsab lokipe tanp yo.
Then the man said to me, “This room facing south is for the priests who are on duty in the temple.
46 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.”
The room facing north is for the priests on duty at the altar. These are the sons of Zadok who come near to Yahweh to serve him; they are among the sons of Levi.”
47 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.
Next he measured the courtyard—one hundred cubits in length and one hundred cubits in width in a square, with the altar in front of the house.
48 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.
Then the man brought me to the portico of the house and measured its doorposts—they were five cubits thick on either side. The entryway itself was fourteen cubits in width, and the walls on each side of it were three cubits in width.
49 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.
The length of the portico was twenty cubits, and its depth was eleven cubits. There were steps that went up to it and columns that stood on either side of it.
