< Ezekyèl 43 >
1 Nan lè sa a, li te mennen m nan pòtay la; pòtay ki gen fas li vè lès la;
And he brought me to the gate that looked towards the east.
2 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.
And behold the glory of the God of Israel came in by the way of the east: and his voice was like the noise of many waters, and the earth shone with his majesty.
3 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.
And I saw the vision according to the appearance which I had seen when he came to destroy the city: and the appearance was according to the vision which I had seen by the river Chobar: and I fell upon my face.
4 Konsa, glwa SENYÈ a te vini nan kay la pa chemen pòtay ki te gen fas li vè lès la.
And the majesty of the Lord went into the temple by the way of the gate that looked to the east.
5 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.
And the spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court: and behold the house was filled with the glory of the Lord.
6 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.
And I heard one speaking to me out of the house, and the man that stood by me,
7 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,
Said to 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 children of Israel for ever: and the house of Israel shall no more profane my holy name, they and their kings by their fornications, and by the carcasses of their kings, and by the high places.
8 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.
They who have set their threshold by my threshold, and their posts by my posts: and there was but a wall between me and them: and they profaned my holy name by the abominations which they committed: for which reason I consumed them in my wrath.
9 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.”
Now therefore let them put away their fornications, and the carcasses of their kings far from me: and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.
10 “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.
But thou, son of man, shew to the house of Israel the temple, and let them be ashamed of their iniquities, and let them measure the building:
11 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.
And be ashamed of all that they have done. Shew them the form of the house, and of the fashion thereof, the goings out and the comings in, and the whole plan thereof, and all its ordinances, and all its order, and all its laws, and thou shalt write it in their sight: that they may keep the whole form thereof, and its ordinances, and do them.
12 “Sa se lwa kay la: tout espas toutozanviwon anwo mòn nan va sen pase tout kote. Gade byen, sa se lwa kay la.”
This is the law of the house upon the top of the mountain: All its border round about is most holy: this then is the law of the house.
13 “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.
And these are the measures of the altar by the truest cubit, which is a cubit and a handbreadth: the bottom thereof was a cubit, and the breadth a cubit: and the border thereof unto its edge, and round about, one handbreadth: and this was the trench of the altar.
14 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.
And from the bottom of the ground to the lowest brim two cubits, and the breadth of one cubit: and from the lesser brim to the greater brim four cubits, and the breadth of one cubit.
15 Fou chofaj lotèl la va kat koude; epi soti nan fou chofaj la, kat kòn yo va monte anwo a.
And the Ariel itself was four cubits: and from the Ariel upward were four horns.
16 Alò, fou lotèl la va longè a douz koude pa douz nan lajè, ak kare nan kat kote li yo.
And the Ariel was twelve cubits long, and twelve cubits broad, foursquare, with equal sides.
17 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.”
And the brim was fourteen cubits long, and fourteen cubits broad in the four corners thereof: and the crown round about it was half a cubit, and the bottom of it one cubit round about: and its steps turned toward the east.
18 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.
And he said to me: Son of man, thus saith the Lord God: These are the ceremonies of the altar, in what day soever it shall be made: that holocausts may be offered upon it, and blood poured out.
19 ‘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.
And thou shalt give to the priests, and the Levites, that are of the race of Sadoc, who approach to me, saith the Lord God, to offer to me a calf of the herd for sin.
20 ‘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.
And thou shalt take of his blood, and shalt put it upon the four horns thereof, and upon the four corners of the brim, and upon the crown round about: and thou shalt cleanse, and expiate it.
21 Ou va, anplis, pran towo pou ofrann peche a, e li va vin brile nan kote ki chwazi nan kay la deyò sanktiyè a.
And thou shalt take the calf, that is offered for sin: and thou shalt burn him in a separate place of the house without the sanctuary.
22 “‘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.
And in the second day thou shalt offer a he goat without blemish for sin: and they shall expiate the altar, as they expiated it with the calf.
23 Lè ou fin netwaye li, ou va prezante yon jenn towo san defo ak yon belye san defo ki soti nan bann mouton an.
And when thou shalt have made an end of the expiation thereof, thou shalt offer a calf of the herd without blemish, and a ram of the flock without blemish.
24 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.
And thou shalt offer them in the sight of the Lord: and the priests shall put salt upon them, and shall offer them a holocaust to the Lord.
25 “‘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.
Seven days shalt thou offer a he goat for sill daily: they shall offer also a calf of the herd, and a ram of the flock without blemish.
26 Pandan sèt jou, yo va fè ekspiyasyon pou lotèl la e fè l vin pwòp; se konsa yo va konsakre li.
Seven days shall they expiate the altar, and shall cleanse it: and they shall consecrate it.
27 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.’”
And the days being, expired, on the eighth day and thenceforward, the priests shall offer your holocausts upon the altar, and the peace offerings: and I will be pacified towards you, saith the Lord God.
