Ezekyèl 46
1 “‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Pòtay pou lakou enteryè ki bay fas vè lès la va fèmen pandan sis jou travay yo; men li va ouvri nan Saba a, e li va vin ouvri nan jou nouvèl lin nan.
“This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘The gate of the inner court that faces east must be kept shut during the six days of work, but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the New Moon it shall be opened.
2 Prens lan va antre pa chemen galri a, soti deyò pou kanpe akote poto pòtay la. Epi prèt yo va founi ofrann brile li yo ak ofrann lapè li yo, li va adore nan papòt pòtay la, e li va sòti. Men pòtay la p ap fèmen jis rive nan aswè.
The prince is to enter from the outside through the portico of the gateway and stand by the gatepost, while the priests sacrifice his burnt offerings and peace offerings. He is to bow in worship at the threshold of the gate and then depart, but the gate must not be shut until evening.
3 Pèp peyi a osi va adore nan papòt pòtay la devan SENYÈ a, nan Saba yo, ak nouvèl lin yo.
On the Sabbaths and New Moons the people of the land are also to bow in worship before the LORD at the entrance to that gateway.
4 Ofrann brile ke prens lan va ofri a SENYÈ a nan jou Saba, a va sis jenn mouton san defo, ak yon belye san defo;
The burnt offering that the prince presents to the LORD on the Sabbath day shall be six unblemished male lambs and an unblemished ram.
5 epi ofrann sereyal la va yon efa ak belye a, ofrann sereyal la ak jenn mouton yo, va kantite ke li kapab bay la e yon mezi lwil ak yon efa.
The grain offering with the ram shall be one ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he is able, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
6 Nan jou nouvèl lin nan, li va ofri yon jenn towo san defo; anplis, sis jenn mouton ak yon belye ki san defo.
On the day of the New Moon he shall offer a young, unblemished bull, six lambs, and a ram without blemish.
7 Epi li va founi yon ofrann sereyal, yon efa ak towo a, yon efa ak belye a, ak jenn mouton yo, kantite ke li kapab bay la, yon mezi lwil ak yon efa.
He is to provide a grain offering of an ephah with the bull, an ephah with the ram, and as much as he is able with the lambs, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
8 Lè prens lan antre, li va antre pa galri pòtay la, e li va sòti pa menm chemen an.”
When the prince enters, he shall go in through the portico of the gateway, and he shall go out the same way.
9 “‘“Men lè pèp peyi a vini devan SENYÈ la nan fèt chwazi yo, sila ki antre pa pòtay nò pou adore a, va sòti pa pòtay sid la. Epi sila ki antre pa pòtay sid la, va sòti pa pòtay nò a. Pèsòn pa pou retounen pa menm chemen ke li te antre a, men li va sòti tou dwat.
When the people of the land come before the LORD at the appointed feasts, whoever enters by the north gate to worship must go out by the south gate, and whoever enters by the south gate must go out by the north gate. No one is to return through the gate by which he entered, but each must go out by the opposite gate.
10 Lè yo antre, prens lan va antre pami yo; epi lè yo sòti, li va sòti.”
When the people enter, the prince shall go in with them, and when they leave, he shall leave.
11 “‘“Nan fèt ak jou fèt chwazi yo, ofrann sereyal yo va yon efa ak yon towo, yon efa ak yon belye, ak jenn mouton yo, kantite ke l ap kapab bay la, yon mezi lwil ak yon efa.
At the festivals and appointed feasts, the grain offering shall be an ephah with a bull, an ephah with a ram, and as much as one is able to give with the lambs, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
12 Lè prens lan founi yon ofrann bòn volonte, yon ofrann brile, oswa ofrann lapè kon ofrann bòn volonte a SENYÈ la, pòtay vè lès la va vin ouvri pou li. Epi li va founi ofrann brile pa li a, ak ofrann lapè li a, jan li konn fè nan jou Saba a. Epi li va sòti e pòtay la va vin fèmen lè li fin sòti.
When the prince makes a freewill offering to the LORD, whether a burnt offering or a peace offering, the gate facing east must be opened for him. He is to offer his burnt offering or peace offering just as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and the gate must be closed after he goes out.
13 “‘“Epi ou va founi yon mouton yon lane, san defo pou yon ofrann brile a SENYÈ a chak jou; chak maten, ou va founi li.
And you shall provide an unblemished year-old lamb as a daily burnt offering to the LORD; you are to offer it every morning.
14 Anplis, ou va founi yon ofrann sereyal ak li chak maten, yon sizyèm efa ak yon tyè mezi lwil pou mouye farin fen an, yon ofrann sereyal a SENYÈ a tout tan selon yon òdonans ki p ap janm fini oubyen chanje.
You are also to provide with it every morning a grain offering of a sixth of an ephah with a third of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour—a grain offering to the LORD. This is a permanent statute.
15 Konsa, yo va founi yon ofrann sereyal ak li chak maten, kon yon ofrann brile ki va fèt tout tan.”
Thus they shall provide the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil every morning as a regular burnt offering.’
16 “‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Si prens lan bay yon don eritaj a nenpòt nan fis li yo, li va apatyen a fis li yo; se posesyon pa yo selon règleman eritaj la.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons as an inheritance, it will belong to his descendants. It will become their property by inheritance.
17 Men si li bay yon don nan eritaj li a youn nan sèvitè li yo, sa va pou li jis rive nan ane libète a; epi li va retounen a prens lan. Eritaj li va sèl pou fis li yo; li va apatyen a yo menm.
But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it will belong to that servant until the year of freedom; then it will revert to the prince. His inheritance belongs only to his sons; it shall be theirs.
18 Prens lan pa pou pran nan eritaj a pèp la e mete yo deyò nan pwòp posesyon pa yo. Li va bay fis li yo yon eritaj k ap sòti nan pwòp posesyon pa li, pou pèp Mwen an pa vin divize, okenn moun, de posesyon pa li a.”’”
The prince must not take any of the inheritance of the people by evicting them from their property. He is to provide an inheritance for his sons from his own property, so that none of My people will be displaced from his property.’”
19 Epi li te mennen m pase nan antre akote pòtay la, antre anndan chanm sen pou prèt yo, ki te bay fas vè nò. Epi gade byen, te gen yo plas pa dèyè nèt vè lwès.
Then the man brought me through the entrance at the side of the gate into the holy chambers facing north, which belonged to the priests, and he showed me a place there at the far western end
20 Li te di mwen: “Sa se plas kote prèt yo va bouyi ofrann koupab ak ofrann peche a ak kote yo va kwit ofrann sereyal la, pou yo pa oblije mennen yo deyò nan lakou eksteryè a, pou l ta transmèt sentete a pèp la.”
and said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, so that they do not bring them into the outer court and transmit holiness to the people.”
21 Konsa, li te mennen m deyò nan lakou eksteryè a, e te mennen m travèse kat kwen lakou a; epi gade byen; nan chak kwen lakou a, te gen yon ti lakou.
Then he brought me into the outer court and led me around to its four corners, and I saw a separate court in each of its corners.
22 Nan kat kwen lakou a, te gen ti lakou fèmen karant koude nan longè e trant koude nan lajè, yo tout te nan menm mezi.
In the four corners of the outer court there were enclosed courts, each forty cubits long and thirty cubits wide. Each of the four corner areas had the same dimensions.
23 Te gen yon miray ki te antoure yo, antoure yo toule kat, e pozisyon pou bouyi yo a te fèt toutozanviwon anba mi yo.
Around the inside of each of the four courts was a row of masonry with ovens built at the base of the walls on all sides.
24 Epi li te di m: “Sila yo se plas bouyi kote sèvitè kay yo va bouyi sakrifis a pèp yo.”
And he said to me, “These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple will cook the sacrifices offered by the people.”
