Ezekyèl 43
1 Nan lè sa a, li te mennen m nan pòtay la; pòtay ki gen fas li vè lès la;
Then did he lead me to the gate, even the gate that was turned in an eastern direction.
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 from the way of the east; and his voice was like a noise of many waters; and the earth gave light from his glory.
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 it was like the appearance of the vision which I had seen, yea, like the vision that I had seen when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I had seen by the river Kebar: 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 glory of the Lord came into the house by the way of the gate which was turned in an eastern direction.
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.
Then did the Spirit take me up, and bring me into the inner court: and, behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house.
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 him speaking unto me out of the house; and a man was standing alongside of 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,
And he said unto 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 children of Israel forever: and the house of Israel shall not defile any more my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their lewdness, nor by the carcasses of their kings on their 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.
Inasmuch as they placed their threshold by my threshold, and their door-posts close by my door-posts, and the wall being only between me and them, and they defiled my holy name by their abominations which they committed; so that I made an end of them in my anger.
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 will they have to put away their lewdness, 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.
Thou, son of man, tell the house of Israel of the house, that they may be confounded because of their iniquities: and let them measure the outlines.
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 if they be confounded because of all that they have done: then let them know the form of the house, and its arrangements, and its means of egress, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its statutes, and all its forms, and all its laws, and write them down before their eyes; that they may observe the whole of its form, and all its statutes, and carry them out.
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 for the house, Upon the top of the mount shall its whole limit all round about be most holy: behold, this is the law for 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 in cubits, The cubit is a cubit and a hand-breadth; and the bottom shall be a cubit high, and a cubit broad, and its border on its edge round about shall be a span: and this shall be the outside 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 upon the ground up to the lower projection shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser projection up to the greater projection shall be four cubits, and the breadth 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 upper portion of the altar shall be four cubits; and from the upper surface of the altar and upward shall be the 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 upper surface of the altar shall be twelve cubits long, by twelve broad, square on its four 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 projection shall be fourteen cubits in length, by fourteen in breadth on its four sides; and the border round about it shall be half a cubit; and its bottom shall be a cubit round about; and its steps shall look 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 unto me, Son of man, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, These are the statutes of the altar on the day when it shall be finished, to offer thereon burnt-offerings, and to sprinkle thereon blood.
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 the Levites that are of the seed of Zadok, who approach unto me, saith the Lord Eternal, to minister unto me, a young bullock for a sin-offering.
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 put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the projection, and upon the border round about; and thou shalt cleanse it and make an atonement for 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 bullock of the sin-offering, and some one shall burn him at an appointed 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 on the second day shalt thou offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin-offering: and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bullock.
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.
When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, shalt thou offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out 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 bring them near before the Lord, and the priests shall throw salt upon them, and they shall offer them up as a burnt-offering unto 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 prepare a goat for a sin-offering every day; and a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish shall they prepare.
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 atone for the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate the same.
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 when these days are expired, it shall be, that on the eighth day, and thenceforward, the priests shall prepare upon the altar your burnt-offerings, and your peace-offerings: and I will accept you in favor, saith the Lord Eternal.
